Except for the competition between the first and second place in the group, the overall situation of the entire Group A has basically been decided.

But unlike Shakhtar Donetsk's smooth away loss to Manchester United, Leverkusen brought huge trouble to Chinatown at the Block Stadium. It was not until the 87th minute of the second half that the youngster came on as a substitute. Jese dribbled the ball in from the left and scored the fatal goal for the team.

This 20-year-old youngster has been unanimously praised by many celebrities, including Zidane, who believe that he has the potential to become a top superstar in the future. Zidane even opened a small stove for him, and this season he His progress is also quite obvious, and he is gradually becoming an important member of the team's first team and the most promising rookie in Spain.

However, Hesse denied the rumors that he might leave Chinatown.

"I will not leave. I feel very happy here and hope to continue to grow and improve. I hope to bring more contributions to the team, get more playing time and become more and more important."

"In my mind, Chinatown is already one of the best clubs in the world. The management, head coach, coaching staff, teammates... around me, there is a group of the best people in the world working hard. , this is the best for me.”

After scoring the goal, he excitedly rushed to the sidelines to hug coach Zidane, and then waved to Gao Han in the chairman's stand. Hesse said, "I went to Zidane at that time, and he gave me a lot of care and help. Lots of advice.”

"I am also very grateful to Mr. Gao Han. He often talks to me. He gives me the feeling that I am a very important player in his mind. This makes me feel an unprecedented honor and makes me more confident. "

When Gao Han saw these interviews with Jose from the next day's newspaper, his flawless responses made him laugh. He called Armando Marcos directly and told him that the press and public relations department's My colleagues should all get a salary increase.

After the last round of La Liga before Christmas, after seventeen rounds, Chinatown topped the standings with a two-point advantage. Barcelona and Atletico Madrid once again had the same points, ranking second and third respectively.

Real Madrid's performance is sluggish this season, currently only scoring 38 points, a full ten points away from Chinatown at the top of the list, and eight points behind Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

After the La Liga schedule was halfway through, all media reporters and fans around the world were surprised to find that La Liga was no longer the one-man show or two-person show it had been before. Barcelona was a one-man show, and the Spanish Super League duo stood out from the rest. The strength pattern has been completely broken.

La Liga this season looks more like a race for the top.

In Marca's mid-term summary, he specifically mentioned the current situation of La Liga and believed that Chinatown can lead the standings. Although it is a bit surprising, it is not surprising. This team has sold off its core players every year. , and the strength does not decrease but increases every year.

"If Pochettino's departure at the beginning of the season was worrying, then Zidane's arrival further activated the team's offense while continuing the stability and passion of Pochettino's period. The strength of Chinatown has greatly increased.”

"If you only look at the top of the scorer list, it is difficult to see the names of Chinatown players, but if you focus on the top 20, you will find that there are six players from Chinatown in the top 20, and the total number of players in the team The number of goals scored is only less than Barcelona, ​​which in itself is enough to prove the strength of Chinatown on the offensive end."

Marca believes that Chinatown's lead in the standings is encouraging, but at the same time, it must be vigilant. After all, Pochettino once led the league standings for a long time when he was coaching, but it plummeted in the second half.

"I hope Zidane can fully learn from the experience and lessons of his predecessor."

Regarding Barcelona, ​​Marca believes that Martino's team scored 46 points, but could only be ranked second. This is quite shocking, because this has been the case before Barcelona's winter break in the past ten years. The second highest score you can get.

The highest point was last season, during Vilanova's coaching period, Barcelona scored 49 points in the first 17 rounds of the winter break. That was the highest score in the half-season championship in this century.

It is not difficult to see that Marca is very sympathetic to Martino's situation.

But Barcelona's problem isn't just Martino, it's also the management.

Players such as Valdes and Iniesta are facing contract renewals, and Messi also has higher requirements for his treatment and situation. However, Russell is very hesitant in this regard. The club's financial situation is not sufficient, which makes it impossible for him to be like him. Like other wealthy teams, they met the team's internal requirements, but this move caused dissatisfaction among the players.

What is even more worrying is that Messi has been affected by tax evasion cases and money laundering scandals this season, but instead of providing support from the Barcelona management, the club's vice president Javier Faus instead declared in public that the club had no reason Give Messi a raise.

Messi was so angry that he was treated like this when he was in dire straits. He responded publicly to the media and criticized Javier Faus for being a blind man who knows nothing about football.

Messi also publicly clarified that he and his family have never actively asked for a salary increase.

Ibrahimovic, who has always been loud-mouthed and dared to speak out, also rarely publicly supported Messi, saying that the club's remarks were chilling and Messi should not be treated in this way.

Soon, Mundo Deportivo revealed the inside story. Javier Faus was Barcelona's vice-president in charge of finance. His remarks were not nonsense, but it was indeed inappropriate to comment on Messi like this in public.

The media also broke the news that Russell personally called Messi after the incident, saying that Javier Faus's remarks did not represent the opinions of the club management, and promised to renew the contract with Messi after the winter break. negotiation.

Everyone knows that the players who can’t be blamed the most in Barcelona’s current team are Messi and Ibrahimovic. As a result, the two superstars have come out to criticize at the same time. How can the management not pay attention to it? ?

Barcelona has internal and external troubles, and Real Madrid is also full of problems. The team's defense has had big problems this season. The defense level of Albiol and Bruno Alves has declined rapidly, which has made Real Madrid's performance this season quite sluggish. Lost too many points.

Therefore, Marca believes that according to the current momentum, the La Liga champion this season will be born between Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid and Chinatown.

According to the odds offered by the betting company, Chinatown still has the lowest odds among the four strong teams. It can be seen that everyone is still not optimistic about the performance of this team in the second half.

But regarding Chinatown's performance this season, many media in Spain and Europe have described it as crazy.

The team with the lowest average age in La Liga, Zidane, who is coaching for the first time, combined the two to create Chinatown, which is now ranked first in La Liga. This has to be said to be quite amazing.

Many media have dug deeper and believe that the highly efficient professional management team is indispensable for Chinatown’s success today.

"The operations and commercial operations team headed by Armando Marcos has made Chinatown one of the most profitable clubs in European football in just a few years. For example, during this winter break, Chinatown was invited to Doha Not only did the training cost nothing, but I also received a generous appearance fee, and at the same time, I will sign two commercial sponsorship contracts in the Middle East."

"Carlos Cantarero was once the best assistant coach in the world, but now he is definitely the top technical director in football today. It is precisely because of his presence that Chinatown has been sold every year in the past few years. They are the core players, but they remain in the top four in the league every year. This performance list can be regarded as the first in Europe."

"Of course, the most important thing that cannot be ignored is the high cold."

"Chinatown was founded 13 years ago, starting from the lowest level in Spain. No one thought that today, 13 years later, this youngest top league team in European football is already at the top of La Liga."

"Reusing outstanding professional managers like Armando Marcos and promoting technical directors like Cantarero, Gao Han's management of Chinatown has undoubtedly set an excellent example for the entire European football world. What's even more commendable is that, Chinatown's influence on the Internet is quite large, not losing to top clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona."

But what is even more surprising is that in the list of the top 50 local rising stars in the new season selected by the Spanish media ISF, there are five Chinatown players in the top ten, namely Isco, Koke, Jese, Morata and Moreno, this does not include Carvajal who moved to Real Madrid.

Among the top 20, there are two young players, Saul and Bellerin. They are both playing for the second team and performing well.

In this list, Chinatown is known as the team with the most outstanding youth training in Spain.

"As this group of local players born after January 1, 1992 continue to grow and progress, Chinatown's development momentum will continue to be rapid and steady in the next few years."

In the list of the 100 most valuable clubs in the world compiled by the famous Brazilian consulting company PLURI, Chinatown entered the top ten for the first time, and rushed to sixth place in one breath, even surpassing Chelsea. , Manchester United, Arsenal and Juventus and other teams, reaching 470 million euros.

But this is only the value of the players. If calculated according to Forbes club market value rankings, Chinatown's market value will reach one billion euros, second only to Real Madrid, Manchester United, Barcelona, ​​Arsenal, Bayern Munich and Inter Milan.

Forbes also predicted that once the new stadium in Chinatown is opened and the performance of this season continues the momentum of the first half, the overall market value will exceed 1.5 billion, or even reach 2 billion, ranking among the top five.

For these false reputations, Gao Han only viewed them as entertainment news.

What he is more concerned about is the team's training camp in Doha, Qatar, and the Chinese Football Association coaching team that will soon arrive in Europe.
