The Ball at Your Feet

After defeating Porto 5-1 at home, Real Madrid regained their tentacles in the league. Now Real Madrid is no longer worried that Porto can turn the sky in the away game. Therefore, they have used their best in the league game.

However, at this time, they also ushered in a little trouble.

After defeating Villarreal at home, in the away game against Tenerife, Real Madrid overturned in the gutter and failed to win the game.

"We played a bit too smoothly recently. A draw is also good for us." In this regard, Ancelotti was not too harsh. "Barcelona just won a draw, and we are still ahead of them. Two points, don’t worry about anything. Now, we also need to calm down, think about it, and then go to play the game."

A draw with Tenerife is not a big problem. Moreover, it has exposed the team's long-standing pride and complacency, which may be a good thing. After all, Real Madrid now can be said to be proud of football. The Premier League is gradually declining and Serie A is no longer strong. Bundesliga and Ligue 1 are now even more unbearable. The only competition for hegemony in La Liga is the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona. This situation can easily breed complacency.

In the face of this emotion, it is not a bad thing to lose a ball at an appropriate time to make everyone's mind clear.

After adjusting, Real Madrid immediately gathered strength and aimed at the next game. Before going to the Dragon Stadium in Porto, they first washed Sevilla 4-0 as a preview, and then they went to Porto to play.

On the plane, Pepe, a former Porto player, is still talking to everyone about Porto’s fun.

"Actually, Porto and Benfica are equivalent to Spain's Real Madrid and Barcelona. They belong to the kind of team that is covered by the government and will not go bankrupt." Speaking of the match-fixing case in Porto in the past two years, Pepe is the same. Said, "For them, it is impossible for them to be demoted by kick-fixing. The forces behind them are different. Your country, whose capital team, or the influential government The background team may be relegated?"

His question made Zhao Yaning think about it. It is true that after the Chinese match-fixing case came out, there was a lot of trouble, but it turned out that some of the little foxes were unlucky? The real team with the most outrage is not because of the government's background behind it, and there is nothing wrong with it? And, don't talk about them, just say that the team in your hometown is behind the national enterprise. If something goes wrong, isn't it painless?

"However, Porto is so rich, so there is no money." Zhao Yaning also said in this regard, "Porto must have a lot of money in operating a black shop for so many years?"

"Every black shop in European football is dangling on the edge of bankruptcy." Raul answered this question, "It looks like they make a lot of money in a transaction, but in fact, the investment behind it is also quite large. . For teams like Benfica and Porto, the scout network does not lose 10 million yuan a year, and the cost of youth training has to be thrown in a large amount, plus the players they bought and smashed in their hands, look. I have made a lot of money, in fact, all of them are on the verge of bankruptcy."

"Does the government not give them subsidies?" Zhao Yaning asked.

"The poor of the Portuguese government are almost unable to unravel the pot. They are now buying a Portuguese house and they are granted Portuguese citizenship. In fact, Spain is the same. Speaking of it, everyone is rumored that Spain will not be able to win the World Cup this time. , Spain’s economy will collapse. It’s not a joke."

Zhao Yaning didn't say anything about this. He had seen how lazy Spaniards were. It was strange that these guys weren't bankrupt.

"Speaking of it, it seems that there are Chinese companies investing in Portuguese football clubs." Pepe suddenly remembered something. "There is also Brazil. It seems that there are also Chinese companies naming football stadiums."

"Not only the Portuguese Super League and La Liga, there are also many teams in La Liga, all of which are contacting teams that want to do business with Chinese teams. Villarreal and others, are not all thinking about selling their chest ads to Chinese people."

Guti also said a few words.

This is true.

With advertisements on the chest, some teams sell it very expensively, but some teams can’t get the money. Real Madrid can sell their chest ads for more than 20 million, and Manchester United is almost at the same price. But for teams like Magala and Sporting Gijon, it’s not bad that the chest ads can sell for one million, and there are even more. For La Liga teams, the advertisement on the chest is the owner's private ham company, which advertises for the owner.

Therefore, now, when Chinese capital is pouring into European football, these less expensive places are also captured first.

Zhao Yaning is very happy to see it happen. Their investment is nothing more than influence, but in the final analysis, no matter how influential the La Liga Premier League team is, it feels like they will not be closer than their hometown players. When these investors realize that investing in them is not as good as investing in Chinese football, Chinese football can definitely continue to take off. The people of Guangzhou have made a good start, and this road can go a long way.

"Maybe in 20 years, Spain and Portugal will become the training grounds of Chinese football." Although Zhao Yaning knew that this idea was too bizarre, he still couldn't help thinking like that. "At that time, Chinese football, It should be better too, right?"

In the away game against Porto, Real Madrid won easily and smoothly. Although Porto tried their best to resist, they quickly surrendered when they discovered that all their changes had been prepared by Real Madrid.

Boas is too young after all, and his experience is still a lot worse. The thirty-three-year-old coach, at the age of Raul, can never be compared with Ancelotti's old fritters trained in Serie A in terms of tactical experience. In this game, Ancelotti made it. With the corresponding arrangement, he has nothing to do.

Zhao Yaning in the middle almost smashed the opponent Fernando, which made Porto’s defense collapse in less than 20 minutes. And Real Madrid changed a little bit, allowing Pepe and Ramos to serve as defenders at the same time. The two defenders with excellent defensive capabilities also made Falcao almost do nothing to do, and Real Madrid killed the audience.

The result of the game is naturally a big victory for Real Madrid. Zhao Yaning scored a goal, a corner kick assisted Ramos to score, and then Yaya Toure scored the team's third goal, securing a 3-0 victory for the team. , Which also made Real Madrid stand up to the quarter-finals of the Champions League with a total score of 8-1.

And soon, the Champions League quarterfinals will all be released. In addition to Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Manchester United, Inter Milan and other powerful teams have also qualified. But what is surprising is that Milan, Arsenal, and Chelsea have all been eliminated. Instead, the two Ligue 1 teams, Bordeaux and Lyon, both advanced.

Such a result, actually thinking about it, is not unexpected.

Although Lyon is not considered a super giant, he is also considered a traditionally powerful member. This summer, after selling Benzema, they spent 95 million in signings in one go, and naturally they also had good results. They are the kind of team that has no worries in the top 16 and the top 8 depends on luck. This time, luck is good, and it's normal to appear.

Under the leadership of Marshal Blanco, Bordeaux did a good job: the former French central defender played offensive football. In the group stage, Bordeaux and Bayern, Juventus were assigned to a group. It sounds like a dead group, but they doubled Bayern, beat Juventus, locked the qualifying spot in advance, forcing Bayern to knock Juventus away in the final round of the group stage-and with Harvey Aron Sol's Juventus defeated Bayern Munich at home and squeezed Bayern out of the Champions League. In the knockout round, they also reached the quarter-finals. Bordeaux is stronger than them. Naturally, it is not an accident that they are promoted.

And Chelsea unfortunately met Inter Milan, Mourinho is too familiar with his old disciples, doing a lot of psychological warfare before the game, the layout of the game is also aimed at weaknesses. The new coach Mancini replaced by Chelsea this season is really not a material for playing the Champions League. The soft feet of the team he presided over in the Champions League has almost become his unique attribute. Being eliminated by Inter Milan is not unexpected.

Unfortunately, Arsenal won Barcelona in the first round. Although they beat Barcelona 2-1 at home, they played in a mess after the away game. In this away game, Arsenal didn't have a chance to score a goal, and they lost directly.

This game is also full of controversy like many Barcelona games: in fact, Arsenal has its own wrong place: Wenger doesn't know what evil has been hit, and suddenly wants to rely on the shrinking to protect the draw~www.wuxiaspot. The com~ tactical design tends to be conservative, it is not a play that wants to win in itself. In the first round, his team was indeed taken care of. Messi's away goal was considered offside by the referee. However, even so, this game at the Nou Camp was played enough to make people feel nonsense. Arsenal's main center, Van Persie, received a yellow card because he was hit by Abidal's lock, because he continued to shoot after the whistle and turned two yellows and one red-this is probably the most bizarre red card. While Fabregas made a heel clearance in front of his penalty area and sent it to Xavi's feet by mistake, providing Barcelona with the first assist. Then, Arsenal's main goalkeeper was kicked and left the field. The substitute goalkeeper came on the court shortly after he was injured again, but Barcelona locked their throats and wounded a lot of people, but they only got a yellow card-the whistleblowing of this game is really nothing to say.

After the game, Wenger and Guardiola also had a very heated argument. Guardiola even directly said, "La Masia is full of players of Wilshere's level", which made Wenger extremely angry.

It seems that it is really no good to offend Platini. Thinking of the rumors of Wenger and Platini's grievances, Zhao Yaning had to smile wryly.

Fortunately, Real Madrid will probably not be affected by the whistle. This is too important for Real Madrid.

At this time, the draw for the Champions League quarter-finals was also completed. Looking at the draw, Zhao Yaning could not tell whether he was happy or helpless.

Real Madrid drew Liverpool, Zhao Yaning, to face his old club.
