Football: The butcher in the midfield at the start, the magic bird stunned

Chapter 262 Two consecutive victories in the league!Rome's Champions League journey, UEFA's hand of God?
After scoring the goal, Roma didn't mean to stop at all. The whole team wanted to score more goals.

Mourinho hopes to gain more goal difference against weaker teams, not only in the opening stage of the season, when multiple teams have the same score, they can be ranked higher and boost morale, and they can also deal with it at the end of the season every possible situation.

In addition, the players also have their own ideas.

Abraham wants to use goals to compete for his main position, Dybala wants to prove that he is still one of the best players in Serie A, not to mention midfielders, everyone hopes to perform more in the limited playing time To fight for playing time for the next Champions League.

And Cremona became the little fat sheep in the eyes of these red wolves.

Not long after the first goal, in the 40th minute, Chen Xiaoliang pushed forward in the middle, faced the defensive midfielder and passed a diagonal pass to Dybala on the right, and then the two completed a mutual back-running screen cooperation.

After Chen Xiaoliang took the ball, he ran to the right towards Dybala, and Dybala cut the ball from the front of the penalty area to the left.

When the two met, Dybala made a fake move to pass the ball to Chen Xiaoliang. Before the defender had time to judge, Dybala rushed into the penalty area with an acceleration, and Chen Xiaoliang passed by him in an instant. To the right of the restricted area.

This kind of offense of telling each other to switch positions while dribbling is a test of the opponent's defensive players' cooperation in defensive areas and defensive coordination.

If the defending player keeps following, he will lose his original defensive position;

And when you stop following halfway, and realize handover and marking with the teammate who is responsible for the defense of that area, you need a very high level of tactical literacy and a tacit understanding of cooperation;
A common defensive strategy is to compress the space for him to handle the ball by pressing multiple people on the ball, neither allowing him to shoot nor allowing him to have a passing route.

However, for a newly promoted team that was second in Serie B last season, it was really difficult. Chen Xiaoliang was missed again when he double-teamed Dybala, just like the situation before the first goal just now.

Dybala reciprocated, buckled his left foot inward, and passed it back to Chen Xiaoliang.

Chen Xiaoliang lightly blocked the ball with his right foot and stopped the ball half a meter in front of him. The moment he stopped the ball, he also pulled out the shooting space, and then raised his right foot to shoot.

It's been two years, and now my shooting attribute has finally reached 15, and I can finally shoot straight and aboveboard in the penalty area!

But this time the left center back Lockhoshvili, who double-teamed Dybala, decided to take the risk.

If it's too late, just let the shovel go!
In a flash, the fellow from Kvaratsheria shoveled the ball.

As soon as Chen Xiaoliang's right foot hit the ball, he kicked his left foot on the ground one step ahead and was shoveled by Lokhorshvili.

In an instant, the balance of the whole person was destroyed, the person fell down, and the ball flew.

"Hey!!!"

In the stands, on the coach's bench, all the people on the Roma side let out a cry of dissatisfaction!

The referee didn't hesitate, and arrived late, "beep!", and then showed a yellow card to Lokhorshvili, who was still quibbling, and awarded a penalty kick.

The nearby Roma players immediately came over to care about Chen Xiaoliang's situation.

There are thousands of injuries, and the backbone of my family can't be injured. Without him rushing forward and then rushing left and right, everyone has a little score in their hearts about how the team can play.

Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with Chen Xiaoliang, but his bottom hurt from the fall, and he stood up after sitting for a while.

A group of attackers came up.

For the penalty kick created by the captain himself, of course, he pushed the captain to take the penalty first. As usual, Chen Xiaoliang waved his hand and refused directly.

He didn't expect that just before the game, he added points to the penalty kick, but the opportunity came before he succeeded, so he had to continue to be selfless and humble.

Dybala wanted to take a penalty, but Pellegrini meant that Dybala had already scored a goal this time, and he should give the opportunity to other players, such as himself.

Of course Abraham was happy to hear these words, but he didn't come to support the old captain. As a striker, he thought he was the one who most needed to score goals.

Pellegrini is right to think about it. After all, the season has just started, scoring goals is a small matter, and improving his status is a big matter. His captain and core position have been given up, and there is nothing wrong with letting a penalty kick.

But he made an agreement with Abraham that if the penalty was not scored, he would have to let himself take the penalty in the future.

The two signed the deal under the witness of Chen Xiaoliang and Dybala. Abraham even picked up the ball and kissed it, and then solemnly placed it on the penalty spot. He did not forget to step on the turf near the penalty spot to avoid slipping. .

"Beep!" The referee whistled, and Abraham ran up!
He pushed to the left of the goal!
But it is a half high ball!

Cremona goalkeeper Radu guessed the right direction, blocked the ball with his left arm, and the ball bounced to the left side of the penalty area!
The two teams rushed into the penalty area for the first time!

The ball landed in front of Zalewski, and the Polish teenager had no time to observe the position of his teammates in the middle, so he swung his left foot and hit it. !

The opponent's central defender Kirikesh rushed to the goal line desperately, trying to block it with his body, and the goalkeeper Radu who fell to the ground also wanted to get up immediately, but they were still a beat behind.

The ball went straight over the goal, sending the net shaking for a while.

After the goal, Pellegrini and Dybala did not forget to turn their heads to glance at Abraham, and then happily ran to Zalewski to congratulate.

Zhan Jun: "In the 42nd minute, Roma was 2-0 at home! Zalewski, who came on for the injured Zaniolo, made a penalty kick and made a contribution!"

"Some fans said that this is a tie that has not been leveled, and a tie has started again!"

"But Abraham failed to knock on the opponent's goal and missed the excellent opportunity to get the first goal of the season!"

Zhang Lu: "Cesco just joined the team last season, and the gap between the two of them could not be seen at that time. After all, Abraham has been at Chelsea for several years and has also played some games. In terms of experience, especially the experience of big scenes Far better than Sesco."

"But after one season has passed, looking at it now, the gap between the two is already obvious."

"In a game like today, Mourinho let Cesco sit on the bench. On the one hand, he gave Abraham a chance to accumulate his playing status, and on the other hand, he also wanted Cesco to save energy and fully cope with the third round of the league. Against Juventus."

"I can't even score a goal against a newly promoted team. I can't see Abraham enough."

Soon after halftime, players from both sides returned to the locker room.

And Zhan Jun in the live broadcast room also gave an introduction to the prospect of Rome's UEFA Champions League group stage draw this season.

Zhan Jun: "Many people are looking forward to the prospect of Roma in the Champions League this season! And three days after the end of this game, that is, on the night of August 3th, after all the play-offs are over, UEFA will Champions League group stage draw in Istanbul, Turkey!"

"Rome, as last season's Serie A champions, will appear in the first team group! And in the second team, there are Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid and Sevilla in La Liga, as well as Liverpool, Chelsea and Sevilla in the Premier League. Tottenham Hotspur! The remaining two are Leipzig Red Bull in Bundesliga and Juventus in Serie A."

"According to the avoidance principle of the national league in the group stage, except for Juventus, Roma will be tough against any opponent."

"And in the third pot, there are Benfica and Sporting Lisbon in the Portuguese Super League. You must know that in the pre-season warm-up match, Roma just lost to Lisbon. In addition, there are Dortmund and Bayer Lever in the Bundesliga. Kurson!"

"As for the team in Pot 4, Xiao Liang's former club Glasgow Rangers lost 1-2 away to St. Gillos of the Belgian First Division in the first round of the qualifying round. If they can come back in the second round , then it is possible to draw in the same group as Rome!"

"The suspense will be revealed in the night of three days! At that time, we, Penguin Sports, will also broadcast the whole draw ceremony live!"

Mourinho is generally very satisfied with the team's performance, but often at such times, a coach like him will deliberately make some demands to avoid excessive expansion of the players.

In some difficult dialogues between the strong and the strong, on the contrary, they will encourage the players more.

Not surprisingly, he focused on spurring Abraham.

As a center forward, Mourinho once again emphasized to him the value of acting as a fulcrum in the opponent's penalty area and holding the ball with his back outside the penalty area.

In the case that the midfielder cannot effectively transmit the ball at the first time, such a center is the best target for the backcourt to directly send the ball to the frontcourt.

In the end, Mourinho even made it clear that in his team, there is no chance to let others do the dirty work, but let you enjoy the opportunity to score goals.

If you are not willing to improve yourself according to the requirements of the team, then accept the reality of the bench.

Although the tone of the words is a bit serious, for Abraham, who has played in the Premier League, won the Champions League, and is 25 years old in two months, and is not a young player at all, these words are all helping him become a better player. player of.

However, after the opening of the second half, Abraham could still remember Mourinho's lectures in the first 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, he naturally played the game in the way he was most familiar with.

It seems like he wants to learn from the former Ronaldo, wandering outside the penalty area, waiting for the through ball from the midfielder, relying on speed or changing direction and dribbling to break through the defense and score.

The problem is that Messi is the one, Ronaldo is the one, and he is Abraham.

But this made it possible for Chen Xiaoliang.

Due to the lack of a fulcrum in the penalty area, Cremona, which lost two goals, began to defend intensively in the second half. Roma always failed to pass into the penalty area in the frontcourt, and could only rely on Zalewski's sprint on the left and Dybala. Look for opportunities on the right inner disk.

And many times they took chances on the wing, but because there was no good passing point in the middle, they couldn't make the pass.

Under such circumstances, Chen Xiaoliang played more and more forward. Although he was still drawn as a central midfielder on the formation diagram, he was actually like an offensive midfielder, rushing directly into the penalty area many times to fight against the opponent. The defender fights for the header.

Of course, he did this not only according to the current situation on the field at the moment, but also according to the tactical assumptions Mourinho had when he talked with him before the season.

But Foti didn't know all this. He half-jokingly said to Mourinho: "Why is this kid not satisfied with Gerrard? He has started to learn from Lampard."

Mourinho smiled confidently. In private, he never hesitated to praise Chen Xiaoliang: "In my opinion, although there are still some flaws, he can be compared with those two guys."

"I think back then, I put Makelele and Thiago behind Lampard, and later bought Essien."

"And the Benitez guy also gave Gerrard Alonso and Mascherano."

"Behind them, there is both a metronome and a meat grinder, which relieves the pressure on their organization and defense, and they can attack more forward, so that their presence and statistics on the court will become more impressive. attention."

"If you look at this kid, he almost never takes the initiative to rely on others. Whenever he can catch up with the ball, he will grab it by himself. If he can defend himself, he will never use his teammates to make up for it. It is better if his teammates have the ball." Whenever there is an opportunity, he will choose to pass the assist.”

"It is true that he is still young. What those two old guys could do back then may not be able to do now, but what he can do for us now is something that those two old guys have never done in their entire lives. .”

However, Chen Xiaoliang's forward penetration still slightly increased the defensive pressure on the midfielder. Mourinho did not hesitate. In the 65th minute, Cesco replaced Abraham and Volpato replaced Diba. pull.

Pellegrini played the right winger, Volpato played the midfielder, and Cesco was in the center position.

Compared with Dybala's smiling expression when he left the field, Abraham, who missed a penalty kick, looked downcast.

And the Englishman certainly didn't expect that this was just the beginning of his downfall.

In the penalty area of ​​Cremona, where his physical fitness has declined, Sesco's performance can only be described as overwhelming!
In the 71st minute, Pellegrini retreated to get the ball near the center line and passed it directly to Chen Xiaoliang in front.

Chen Xiaoliang took a few steps, pushed forward and passed it to Sesco who was near the penalty spot in the penalty area. The latter caught the ball with his back and attracted almost all the defensive attention in the penalty area, and then returned to Zaleff who was in the penalty area. ski.

The Polish teenager who had already opened made a shot from the penalty area, and Radu immediately took off and reached for the ball.

Although the reaction was quick, it was still not faster than the flying ball, but with a "boom", the ball hit the crossbar and bounced back!
Seeing the ball flying towards him, Cesko immediately jumped up, but the ball bounced too fast, so he was still half a beat behind.

As a result, Chen Xiaoliang, who also rushed into the penalty area after the ball was played, immediately rushed to the ball, slipped, and stretched out his right foot to sweep a tackle!
After Radu got up, it was too late to save the second time, and the ball fell into the goal under everyone's attention!
Rome 3 to 0!

After the goal, Mourinho, who was sitting on the coach's bench, turned his head to look at Abraham.

This ball is simply a classic case of a fulcrum forward in the penalty area.

Although the latter was applauding his teammates, he still had a sad look on his face.

This is not over yet, in the 81st minute, Sesco faced Pellegrini's corner kick, ran two steps in the penalty area to find the right spot, jumped high, and directly headed the goal.

The ball is like a heavy cannon smash smashed by the main attacker in a volleyball match. Without giving the opponent's block any chance, it flies directly into the goal and lands to score!

4 is better than 0!

Mourinho then replaced Chen Xiaoliang, Pellegrini and others, allowing youngsters Tacilovic and Faticanti to make their career debuts in Serie A and played for about 10 minutes.

In the end, Roma successfully achieved two consecutive victories with a 4-goal victory, and maintained a zero seal with a goal difference of 8 goals in the two rounds!

In this round, Inter Milan beat Spezia 3-0, and Naples defeated another newly promoted Monza at home with the same 4-0 as Rome.

Juventus drew 0-0 away with Sampdoria, and AC Milan also shook hands with Atlanta 1-1 away.

两轮过后，罗马以6分8个净胜球优势继续位居榜首，那不勒斯、国际米兰同积6分排名第2、第3。

Followed by Juventus, AC Milan and Atlanta in the second round of draws ranked 3rd to 6th.

The three newly promoted teams Monza, Lecce, and Cremona all lost in the relegation zone in both games.

The performance of the three giants did not surprise Rome, but Naples seemed to be reproducing the state of rapid progress in the first half of last season.

And their striker Osmeen seems to have also ushered in an explosive period after adapting to the rhythm of Serie A.

You know, Naples was not favored before the season. Their biggest move in the summer was to buy Korean defender Kim Min-jae from the Turkish Super League Fenerbahce for 1805 euros, and Spalletti was also unsuspecting in employing him, so he let him go directly. In the position of the main central defender.

Of course, it is Roma that attracted the most media attention. Their performance not only attracted the attention of Italy, but also attracted the attention of the media from the five major league countries.

On the evening of May 5th, although the players were in their respective residences, their eyes were focused on the UEFA Champions League draw ceremony.

Istanbul was chosen because the Ataturk Olympic Stadium here will host this season's Champions League final.

Yaya Toure and Hamit Altentop, two retired football stars, acted under the witness of UEFA Secretary-General Marchetti and hundreds of chairmen, owners, general managers and directors from various European clubs. Draw guests.

However, before the draw, UEFA first issued the season's awards.

Carlo Ancelotti, who led Real Madrid to the Champions League last season, won UEFA's head coach of the year, and Benzema won UEFA's player of the year.

In the season's best 4-3-3 lineup, last season's Champions League runner-up Modric and Fabinho partnered with De Bruyne and three midfielders were selected.

Although Chen Xiaoliang's performance was very eye-catching and he also won the Serie A player of the season, according to "sources", because Roma did not enter the Champions League and Chen Xiaoliang had no performance outside of club competitions, he was not selected for this lineup.

In the final list of 11 players, apart from Rudiger of Chelsea and Mbappe of Greater Paris, the remaining 9 players are from Real Madrid and Liverpool, which also confirms this statement.

But these are not what Chen Xiaoliang cares about. The "magic hand" of the next two guests is the focus of tonight.

Cesko and Kewa were also sitting at Chen Xiaoliang's house, and the three of them watched the live broadcast together on the sofa.

Compared to Kwa, who had everything fresh, Sesko was so nervous that his hands were sweating.

The first tier of 8 teams includes the champions of the top 6 UEFA leagues, as well as the champions of last season's Champions League and Europa League.

If there is an overlap, it will be postponed to the 7th or later league.

The remaining teams are ranked in the second, third and fourth tiers in order according to the current accumulated UEFA points.

However, no one expected that the Ivorian legend Yaya Touré took out the first small ball from the glass basin with the name of the first team. After opening, it said ROMA (ITA) on it!
From Rome, Italy! ! !

The first one was drawn!The first team in Group A!
The camera was immediately shown to Pinto and team ambassador Totti who represented the board of directors at the ceremony tonight!

The two smiled slightly.

And in the live broadcast room, whether it is the Red Country, Italy, or other places, they are all anxiously looking forward to who the second-tier team will draw!
Many people even brush Barcelona, ​​Tottenham, and Chelsea there, because these three second-tier teams have a deep past and grievances with Mourinho!
Soon, all eight teams in the first tier were drawn, and each selected their group.

Second gear begins!
At this moment, Chen Xiaoliang felt his heart beating faster.

The team in the second tier can be said to be the strongest opponent among the teams that can be drawn. The result of the lottery almost determines whether the whole group is difficult or easy!
The second pot was played by Turkish legends, Hamit Altintop and Yaya Toure. Yaya Toure drew the team, while Altintop drew the group according to the principle of avoidance.

He spun one of the 8 balls in the bowl and drew one!
Open it, unfold the note, and turn it over to face the audience and the camera!

There were several exclamations at the scene!
LIVERPOOL (ENG)

Liverpool, runner-up in the Premier League last season, runner-up in the Champions League!

This is obviously one of the second-tier teams that no one wants to touch!
Altentop excluded Manchester City's Group G and started the draw.

I saw an A in his hand!

Group A!
"Fack! Hahaha!"

In front of the TV, someone yelled out!
But he is not Mourinho, Mourinho looks calm in his residence in Rome.

To go on in the Champions League, it is normal to encounter strong opponents. If you can't overcome those mountains, you will never become a great player.

He will not be excited.

Excited for Gerald!

He could finally see his former disciple Chen Xiaoliang appearing at Anfield, Liverpool's home court!

Even as an opponent!
Gerrard immediately sent a text message to Chen Xiaoliang: "Chen, I will definitely go to the home court to watch your game against Liverpool!"

Of course, Chen Xiaoliang understood at a glance that the home game Gerrard mentioned was Anfield.

It was followed by another pump, with several orgasms in between.

Bayern in the first tier met Barcelona in the second tier, and Paris in the first tier drew Juventus in the second tier.

Especially Bayern and Barcelona, ​​​​is the play of the newly transferred striker Lewandowski facing the old owner.

But UEFA's script killing is not over yet.

In the third draw, it was Yaya Toure's turn.

He touched it with his black hand, and it was still a ball, and it was still a small note.

Inter Milan!

Chen Xiaoliang's trio relaxed a little, it is impossible for Inter Milan to meet Roma.

But the drama is that Inter Milan actually went to Group C!
Share with Bayern and Barcelona!
Proper group of death!
The camera showed Zhang Kangyang, chairman of Inter Milan, his face was livid and he didn't say a word!

Second, Yaya Toure touched Dortmund!
Although they sold their star star Haaland, they are still the strongest team in the third tier!

Cesco prayed incessantly: Don't A...don't A...don't A...

Altentop figured out Group G!It's Manchester City!
Chen Xiaoliang was stunned.

Is this the script for Harland to return to his old club?

He suddenly had a strange premonition.

Don't just come to Benfica in the third gear of your own group, and get a 1 million striker Nunez to return to his old club.

Before he could finish thinking in his heart, Cesko jumped up from the sofa!

Altentop drew his old club Salzburg Red Bull and the Austrian league champion to Group A!
Forehead…

Cesko, who is called Little Harland by the media, is also going back to his mother's house?

But it seems that Cesko is not enough, and the drama of the lottery is even more dramatic.

The fourth-tier team drew 7 teams, and Chen Xiaoliang waited silently until there was only the last one left, and he knew the result without drawing.

Glasgow Rangers, also in Group A!
Playing with memes and playing with traffic can be regarded as being understood by UEFA.

Not waiting for the next day, the homepages and front pages of the major media that night were all kinds of "going home" reports.

Gerrard added another text message: "You go to Glasgow, I will go too, haha!"

The end result is:
Group A - Roma, Liverpool, Red Bull Salzburg, Rangers.

The first game will start on the evening of September 9th!They will welcome the Premier League giants Liverpool at home!
