Fox in the Penalty Area

Athletic Amsterdam lost 2:3 at home to the Madrid Pirates, followed by a 2:1 home defeat by the Turin Bulls.

At this point, the first round of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals is all over.

In these eight games, the King of Madrid beat the Rotterdam Elite 3:1 in the away game. Meli had a goal and an assist in the game, which was an important contributor to the team's away victory over the opponent.

Ruhr Rhein drew 0-0 with Stan Park Rangers at home, with Janus Erdmann failing to score.

Athletic Manchester beat Bordeaux 3-0 in an away game. Although Kabanka did not score a goal in the game, he completed a hat-trick of assists and was also the number one contributor to the team's win.

The match between Paris Eger and Blue-White Munich was very stalemate. In the end, they narrowly beat Blue-White Munich 3:2 at home. Blue-White Munich striker Becker scored twice and continued to follow Hou Lai in the scorer list.

Insubre's away game against Valentia was a bit unexpected. The Serie A giants overturned in the away game and lost 0:1 to Valentia. However, the difference of one goal behind is not enough to determine the final fate of the two teams. As long as Insubre, who is back at home, is serious, he believes that there is still a high possibility of eliminating Valentia.

Judging from this first round of the game, King Madrid and Atletico Manchester have the highest hopes of advancing. .

And the winning odds of their two teams are also the most promising.

At the same time, the first round of the Europa League round of 16 is also over.

The teams of Zhou Zijing and Zhang Qinghuan both won the first leg, and Zhou Zijing scored his first goal in the European war.

This is the European match day that makes countless Chinese fans excited.

Chinese players are fully blooming in the European arena, and all of them have performed well.

Their outstanding performance also made Chinese fans look forward to the next World Cup qualifiers and the second China Cup in June.

Of course, what they are most looking forward to is actually the World Cup in Spain and Portugal two years later.

"Dillon didn't recruit Hu?"

Just after the UEFA Champions League match against Sporting Amsterdam, the Madrid Pirates Club received an official letter from their respective national teams regarding the recruitment of players for the national team match day in March.

As a wealthy team, the team is basically full of international players, so every national team match day has a great impact on the team.

There is a proper term called "FIFA virus", which refers to the phenomenon that players go to participate in the national team competition, affect their state, or simply get injured, which eventually leads to poor performance when they return to the club and the club team's performance declines.

Didn't Maxi Carey get injured while playing for the national team?

Although the national team now has insurance, it will pay compensation to the club where the injured player is located.

But do clubs care about that money?

What they care more about is that all players must go to the national team to participate in the national team competition and return to the club in good health.

To Parotti's surprise, other international footballers have been called up by their national teams this time, but Hu Lai is not on the call-up list of the Chinese team.

There is one thing in the fax sent by the Chinese Football Association to the Madrid Pirates Club:

Hu Lai, a player from your club, is not recruited for this national team competition and training camp.

"It's normal. The Chinese team has already qualified for the next stage of qualifiers ahead of schedule. For the last two qualifiers, naturally there is no need to call all the main players." First assistant coach Valentine said.

"That's good. In the next game between us and Samir Sports, let Hu continue to start. Anyway, he doesn't have to fly tens of thousands of kilometers back to China to participate in the game."

Now Parotti's coaching staff is used to Hu Lai's super physical recovery ability, coupled with the uneven striker lineup, so even if there are double matches a week, Hu Lai does not need to rotate.

After coming to the Madrid Pirates, Hou Lai's attendance rate was much higher than when he was in Leeds City. In club competition, he has only missed two Copa del Rey games.

Considering that the national team game requires more energy, the coaching staff is going to let Hu Lai come off the bench.

[In other words, currently the best app for reading and listening to books, Mimi Reading, install the latest version. 】

Looking at it now, they don't have to have any scruples, and they can use Hu Lai boldly and confidently.

Not only should Hu Lai start, but he can also play the entire game.

※※※

Not only Hu Lai was not recruited by Dillon, but also Zhang Qinghuan, Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai, a total of four overseas players can all stay in the club team and rest and adjust.

Because Wang Guangwei did not participate in the European competition, he had to return to China to participate in the competition.

He doesn't have a physical problem, but he needs to play as many games as possible.

Xia Xiaoyu and Zhou Zijing, who also finished their European games, had no way to stay in the club, and they were recruited into the Olympic team.

The Olympic team also has two warm-up matches on this national team match day.

The Olympic Games will be this summer, and the preparations for the Olympic team are also in full swing.

At such a critical moment, the two of them, as the absolute main force and even the core of the team, absolutely cannot be absent.

Even if the journey is tiring, even if the physical energy of the double match just a week ago is very high, you must grit your teeth and persevere.

On February 26th, Saturday, the 27th round of La Liga, the Madrid Pirates challenged Samir Sports away.

This league, which is sandwiched between the Champions League and the national team, is destined to be embarrassing.

Except for Hou Lai, Parrotti sent all the substitutes.

Not every player has Hu Lai's abnormal physical recovery ability. Most of the main players who participated in the Champions League are very tired.

Parotti didn't dare to let them go either.

So it is not surprising that the Madrid Pirates lost 1:2 to Samir Sports in the away game...

Hu Lai started the game and played the whole game, scoring the only goal for the team, which can be regarded as saving a little face.

Fortunately, Catalan United, one of the direct competitors, also overturned in this round of the league. They lost 0:1 away to Royal Steele.

Only the King of Madrid played steadily, they beat Turias 3:0 at home.

However, the King of Madrid has not been affected by the Champions League. Their Champions League quarter-finals were played in the middle of last week. King Madrid lost away.

So no one escaped.

After this round of the league, the order of the top three in the league has changed slightly:

The Madrid Pirates still ranked first with 69 points, but the second place in the league was changed from Catalan to the King of Madrid. The King of Madrid ranked second with 68 points by virtue of their victory against Turias.

The losing Catalan United dropped to third in the league with 66 points.

The Pirates of Madrid narrowed their lead to one point from three earlier, and the race for the title is heating up as the league enters its final sprint.

However, the gap between the fourth and the top three in the league is obvious, which fully reflects the difference between the "Western Super League" and "La Liga":

Fourth-placed Atletico Vizcaya have 51 points, 13 points ahead of fifth-placed Real Caterjon, but they are also 15 points behind third-placed Catale United.

It can be said that the joys and sorrows of each team are different.

The main goal of Sporting Vizcaya in the remaining eleven rounds of the league is to keep the fourth place and strive to qualify for the Champions League next season. As for the league title? They don't even think about it, because thinking about it is a pointless act of wasting energy.

The fifth-placed Royal Carterjon needs to compete for the Champions League qualification on the one hand, and on the other hand, it must prevent losing the qualification for the European War (the qualification for the European War includes the qualification for the Champions League and the Europa League).

As for the league championship, that is the goal of the top three in the Western Super League, and it has nothing to do with the remaining 17 teams.

In La Liga, there is no "miracle of the common people" like Leeds City won the championship before-since the beginning of the 21st century, no team other than the top three in the Western Super League has ever won the league championship.

Of course, it may also be because the key figure in the miracle of the common people is now in the wealthy family...

La Liga is not as relatively average as the Premier League, but it does not mean that the competition for the La Liga title will be less difficult than the Premier League.

It's just a change from six teams to three teams, and the intensity of competition has not diminished.

Because although the number of the three heroes of the Western Super League is not as good as that of the Premier League, the quality is better.

The three teams in La Liga are all teams that have proven themselves in the European arena and have created dynasties. They are real giants.

In the Premier League BIG6, the only teams that can compete with the three Western Super League teams are the Stan Park Rangers and Tramed before sinking.

The background of other teams is slightly worse.

For example, Warship Harbor, North London Wanderers and Manchester Athletic have never even won the Champions League.

Although London Bridge has won the Champions League, it is only after entering the new century. Their reputation was not obvious before.

The so-called BIG6 are actually just the six strong teams that have been hyped up by the media in the past 20 to 30 years. It does not mean that they are really strong.

The overall average of the Premier League is because the gap between BIG6 and the other 14 teams is not big enough. This can be regarded as the fact that the other 14 teams are not weak, or it can be considered that BIG6 is not strong enough... completely optimistic How do people with different perspectives interpret it.

Now there are still eleven rounds left in La Liga, and there is also the Champions League in the middle, and the three Western Super League players also have Champions League matches. Judging from the first round of the match, it is not necessarily that they will be eliminated early.

There is only three points away from the third place to the first place. It is really hard to say where the three teams will be in the final round of the league.
