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

Chapter 301 Benzema Shocking the World and Chen Xiaoliang on the Golden Globe List
Halftime, the score is still 1 to 1.

Facing Rome, which is in the limelight and has won 8 consecutive victories in all competitions, it is completely acceptable for Lazio to get 1 point, which can continue to help them stay in the second echelon of the standings, but for Rome, in the derby Terminating the winning streak is somewhat difficult psychologically.

Looking at the main players on the bench, Mourinho deliberated for a while and decided to let the starters play for a while, especially like Abraham, who lost a big single in the first half and was replaced at this time. It has a great negative impact on his mentality, and it will do more harm than good to the subsequent schedule.

He asked the team to find more opportunities to set the ball, and asked Chen Xiaoliang to pay more attention to protecting the backcourt. The two wing backs and two midfielders pressed up more boldly, and more high balls were played from the side. Dense defense.

The players also felt that the defensive pressure in this game was not too great. Due to Mobile's biceps femoris injury and Milinkovic's suspected injury, they were all excluded by Sarri from the squad for the game. If it weren't for Iba Ness's brain was short-circuited, and the goal conceded in the first half should never have happened.

These starters did not live up to the trust of the coach, and launched a continuous onslaught after the opening of the second half.

All of a sudden, Chen Xiaoliang, Viña, Spinazzola, and even Pellegrini, like bombardiers, continuously sent arcs and heights from various positions on the wing to the penalty area. The crosses with different points and different landing points, like carpet bombing, made Lazio's defensive players jump, jump, and jump again in the penalty area.

After continuing to attack like this for a period of time, although no goals were scored, the effect was revealed.

As Cristante and Matic frequently pressed forward in Lazio's penalty area to participate in the top competition, the opponent's three midfielders, including Cataldi, who had been blocked outside the penalty area, were forced to retreat to the penalty area to participate in the high-altitude ball defense. Defensive vacuum.

In the 66th minute, Chen Xiaoliang stepped in from the left and received a return pass from Spinazzola at the bottom.

In the restricted area, Abraham, Kristante, Matic, Viña, and Pellegrini are in place at five points.

Right back Lazzari was still entangled with Spinazzola, who was running without the ball. For a while, Chen Xiaoliang became an idle player on the field, with no one within 5 meters around him.

After defending the high-altitude ball for 20 minutes, the Lazio players became numb. Just when they all thought that Chen Xiaoliang would take two steps and adjust his step point to make a pass, Chen Xiaoliang dribbled the ball diagonally and directly killed in the middle of the penalty area.

Realizing that Rome was about to change positions, Cataldi and Vecino immediately rushed out of the penalty area to block Chen Xiaoliang's advancing route.

In football games, the most taboo thing is to temporarily change the defensive formation at the moment of offense and defense. This will not only lose the defensive pressure on the opponent's offensive players, but also make the teammates who are also defending at a loss.

After Chen Xiaoliang found that the two had left the penalty area, he rubbed his right foot without waiting for the two to get close, and the ball flew over the head of Vecino who was rushing towards him, and landed at the feet of the unguarded Matic.

Because of his age, the Serbian veteran, who is easily unable to run back, has seldom directly participated in the offense this season, but he will not give up when faced with such an opportunity.

Gently unload the ball with the left foot, step on the ground with the right foot to adjust the step point, and then push the inner instep of the left foot to the ball neatly, just like a golf putter that has been precisely aimed at the green. Rolled directly from the left side of the penalty area to the left side of the goal.

Goalkeeper Proudwell, who just joined Lazio this season, tried his best to fall to the ground as soon as possible, but as the commentary said, saving the ground ball requires the goalkeeper to have a grounding action, which will increase the need for saving time and distance.

Proudwell's action was only halfway through, and the ball launched by Matic hit the inside of the left post and bounced into the goal.

Roma overtook the score 2-1!

After scoring the goal, Matic immediately turned his head and pointed at Chen Xiaoliang.

He is old and can't revel like a young man. He didn't run on the court to celebrate when he scored his second goal this season. He just happily hugged and high-fived his teammates who came to celebrate.

For Matic, who completed his mission perfectly, Mourinho then replaced him with a substitution.

In the process of leaving the field slowly, Matic was applauded by all the Roma fans in the audience, which is also the honor that a dedicated veteran deserves.

Mourinho saw that the overall state of the team was average today. In order to defend the victory, he had to deploy Enzo, followed by a formation of six defenders.

For him, in the long league cycle, as long as he can get 3 points, it doesn't matter what means, practicality comes first.

In the end, the score of 2 to 1 was maintained to the end, and Roma also achieved 6 consecutive victories in the league.

After the competition, Chen Xiaoliang flew to Paris overnight to attend the annual Golden Globe Awards Ceremony held at the Chatelet Theater the next day.

Chen Xiaoliang, who was at a loss when he participated in the ceremony for the first time last year, has become a celebrity at the party this year, being sought after by stars, club managers and the media.

Knowing that this year he doesn't need to go to the stage to accept the award, and there will be an away game in 2 days, Chen Xiaoliang went alone.

However, Benzema, who is almost certain to win this year's Golden Globe, has attracted the attention of the world in a special way.

He not only brought his wife Cora Gauthier and children, but also his current girlfriend, Jordan Ozuna, to attend...

This allows the media to start picking up big melons.

Benzema has a total of 4 children, the first of which was born with his ex-girlfriend Chloe Delaunay.

Afterwards, the two broke up and Benzema married his current wife Cora Gauthier, and they gave birth to his second child.

But after marriage, he rekindled his old relationship with his ex-girlfriend Chloe Delaunay who had broken up, and his ex-girlfriend later gave birth to his third child for him...

And now, current girlfriend Jordan Ozuna is pregnant with his fourth child...

This kind of thing is not uncommon for a star worth tens of millions of euros. Among other things, the private lives of the two old football kings Pele and Maradona do not know where they are more chaotic than Benzema.

Especially Bailey, the number of people who publicly claimed to be his illegitimate children in the second half of his life was so large that the media couldn't count them.

But compared to his predecessors, Benzema should be the first one to be able to manage the harem with ease, and let his wife, children and girlfriends attend the large-scale events that attract the attention of the entire world of football together in a fair manner...

But the person who gave Benzema the courage to do this is actually Chen Xiaoliang...

No, the two met in the backcourt before the awards ceremony, and Benzema also took the initiative to pull his wife and girlfriend to say hello to Chen Xiaoliang.

However, when he saw Chen Xiaoliang who was alone, Benzema was very surprised. He clearly remembered that when this kid won the Copa Award last year, he was accompanied by two identical beauties.

Hearing Benzema's introduction to his partner, Chen Xiaoliang was also 1 confused. The two greeted for a while, and when they parted, Benzema also said thank you to Chen Xiaoliang.

Chen Xiaoliang said that you are welcome, but he was thinking in his heart, I thank you for your family...

This year's Golden Globe Awards Ceremony is still co-hosted by Chelsea star Didier Drogba and French beauty host Sandy Herribert.

In the end, Benzema, who was the most vocal, took over the Golden Globe trophy from his mentor Zidane, and won the tribute and applause of the audience.

The Copa Award was awarded to Pedri, who lost to Chen Xiaoliang last year, and the two who were arranged to sit together by the organizing committee greeted each other specially.

The women's football Golden Globe was won by Barcelona women's football star Putras, and became the first player to win the women's football Golden Globe.

The Yashin Award (best goalkeeper) was awarded to Real Madrid goalkeeper Courtois.

The Polish striker Lewandowski, who transferred to Barcelona, ​​won the Gerd Müller Award (Best Forward).

The Socrates Award (humanitarian) was given to striker Sadio Mane, who switched from Liverpool to Bayern, in recognition of his contribution to building hospitals and schools in his hometown.

It may be that considering that almost all individual awards were given to Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​​​the best club award was finally awarded to Manchester City.

The official explanation is that the establishment of the Golden Globe Award not only takes into account the achievements of men's football, but also covers the construction of women's football and the honors received by the club.

In the final ranking of the Ballon d'Or, the top 9 players belonged to Manchester City except for De Bruyne, who was ranked 3, and the other 8 players were all taken by the players of Real Madrid and Liverpool, the champions and runners-up of the last Champions League.

As the card of Serie A, Chen Xiaoliang unexpectedly squeezed into the top 10, ranking 10th, second only to Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric, and beat the "magic" who has been popular in Manchester City this season and ranked 11th. "Buu" Harland and Sun Xingmin, who ranked 12th in the last Premier League Golden Boot.

The editor-in-chief of "French Football" Pascal Ferre also made a special explanation on his personal social media afterward. It can be said that Chen Xiaoliang has done almost everything he can do except the Champions League in the selection of the Golden Globe Award for "the winner of the Champions League wins the world".

Although Harland and Sun Xingmin scored more goals, they were blank last season in terms of team honor.

At the reception after the ceremony, the media also took pictures of Real Madrid Chairman Florentino taking the initiative to exchange greetings with Chen Xiaoliang.

All of a sudden, the media speculated that Real Madrid would attack Chen Xiaoliang next summer.

However, Chen Xiaoliang himself knew that in the chat with him, the old man didn't mention the transfer at all, except for congratulating himself and asking about some daily life and other things.

But as a top player in European football, as long as the photos of him and Chen Xiaoliang going to that stop are released to the outside world, it is enough to cause a storm in the transfer market.

After Chen Xiaoliang got acquainted at the reception, he flew to Sassuolo overnight.

Mourinho originally asked him to stay in Paris for a few days to rest, but Chen Xiaoliang rejected the head coach's kindness.

The World Cup is about to start, and he will have a full month of rest by then...

The game against Lazio plus a day of training gave him 8 training points and 1 physical recovery card. Counting the one used in the game, there are still 4 physical recovery cards, and the training value is 10→18.

The game against Sassuolo did not go as smoothly as the media predicted. The three-day match and the back and forth between Liverpool, Rome, and Sassuolo made those players feel exhausted even if they didn't have consecutive games.

It seems to be inspired by the last Lazio three midfielders blocking the middle. Sassuolo coach Dionisi also formed the same 4-3-3 formation.

Mourinho returned to 4-2-3-1, with Gwadio, Dybala, Kwa, Sesco and others taking turns playing together, while Chen Xiaoliang did not appear in the starting lineup. Mancini, who partnered with the central defender, put on the captain's armband.

In the 20th minute, Pellegrini held the ball with his back in the middle, tapped his right foot to the left rear, and Dybala on the right received the ball.

Dybala first took a few steps towards the bottom line, then made an emergency stop and smashed the ball to the left foot of the main player, and then made a precise cross to find Sesco near the penalty spot.

Cesco, who ranked sixth in the just-released Copa Awards, behind Pedri, Bellingham, Garvey, Musiala, Kamavenga and other top young stars of the giants, rushed forward in an instant. The defensive player headed the ball and the ball went into the right side of the goal.

Roma head start away.

The subsequent game was uneventful, and the score remained unchanged. At 70 minutes, Mourinho also replaced Dybala, Enzo and others, and replaced Volpato, Shalawi and other substitutes.

Originally, I wanted to keep the fruits of victory in the offense, take away 3 points safely, and reduce the physical exertion of the main force. Unexpectedly, not long after the substitution, in the 77th minute, Sassuolo left winger Laurent went straight in the counterattack and went down to the bottom. The inverted triangle was passed to the center of the penalty area, and the main striker Pinamonti, under the pressure of Mancini, still completed a poke shot and directly equalized the score.

再开球时已经78分钟，而早前结束比赛的那不勒斯已经在主场2比0战胜了恩波利，多赛一场领先了罗马1分暂居联赛第1。

Facing the extremely strong Naples this season, before the start of the World Cup, Mourinho wants to keep the first place in the league no matter what, which will bring a great psychological advantage in the second half of the season after the World Cup.

So very rare, he replaced Chen Xiaoliang when the ball was dead in the 80th minute.

Then an interesting scene appeared. The on-site director politely announced that Chen Xiaoliang had just won the 10th place in the Ballon d'Or selection, which was the highest ranking achieved by a Serie A player after Ronaldo left Juventus.

So, the Sassuolo fans at the scene gave Chen Xiaoliang standing on the sidelines applause for more than ten seconds, and then when Chen Xiaoliang touched the ball for the first time after playing, it immediately became boos from the audience.

The time was tight and the task was heavy. Chen Xiaoliang was fully motivated after playing, with only one goal, which was to score all three points.

And Sassuolo also clearly felt that the energy and oppression brought by the 10th Golden Globe Award is completely different from the intensity it endured in the previous 80 minutes.

Not only does he have a better passing footwork than the replaced Pellegrini, but he doesn't suffer at all in physical confrontation, can push opponents away in aerial battles, and can use his speed to throw off defenders at any time.

What's more terrible is that if the ball is transferred near him, as long as Sassuolo's players hesitate and fail to play the ball immediately, they will inevitably face a fierce but very clean tackle .

Chen Xiaoliang's appearance completely suppressed Sassuolo in the third defensive area of ​​their own side. Except for the big kick after the successful defense, they had almost no way to attack forward.

The pack of wolves in Rome also seemed to have activated the wolf nature in their own blood after the wolf king came on the field. They surrounded the whole group, forced the prey into a small circle through the encirclement, and then used continuous biting to tear the last pieces of the prey into pieces. A little resistance and a desire to survive.

Finally, in the 91st minute, Chen Xiaoliang sent a cross from the right for the fourth time, and this time he accurately found Mancini who was pressing all the way from the backcourt.

The deputy of the Roma team made up for his mistakes and scored a goal at the back point he is most familiar with, fixing the score at 1 to 2. Roma took away 3 points in the away game as they wished, and continued to suppress Naples by 2 points in the standings.

　Thanks to the executive director of the club [Unawakened Dreamer] for the monthly pass!
