What is a destructive midfielder?

Emirates Stadium.

The four stands conveyed restlessness, heat and passion.

Deafening cheers flooded every corner.

Breaking the curse of the Champions League quarterfinals?

No!

Arsenal fans now firmly believe that the team has the ability to create European history!

"Lee!!!"

"Lee!!!"

"Lee!!!"

Coach Top and Li Kang met on the sidelines.

The white-haired old man smiled and patted his shoulder, saying gently: "You will definitely go further this time, no one can stop you."

Li Kang was stunned.

He suddenly found that the other party's spine was more bent than in previous years.

He subconsciously held the hand that had experienced vicissitudes.

The media reporters nearby raised their cameras to record this warm scene.

Dino stepped forward quickly and said in surprise: "Boss, is the wind and sand so strong at the Emirates Stadium?"

Old man Top frowned and said: "Asshole, you blocked the camera!"

Wenger also shook hands with the Leverkusen coaching staff very gracefully, holding a training jacket in his hand.

Bold couldn't help but sigh: "Boss, I feel that everything that happened this season is like a dream."

Wenger put the jacket on Li Kang and smiled: "All your wishes will come true this season."

On the other side.

Morata was standing in front of the billboard and accepting an interview with the media.

"Alvaro, you have eight assists in the Champions League this season! As a striker, do you have anything to say?"

The handsome face gradually became serious.

The Arsenal striker said seriously: "Every goal is the result of the efforts of the whole team. We disrupted the opponent's defensive deployment through passing and cooperation. Every successful pass in this process will contribute no less to the final goal than my assist."

"Li, he can improve our offensive cooperation by several levels!"

Pa pa pa!

The applause lasted for a long time.

Back to the Colney training base.

Wenger announced that all staff would take a day off, and then hurried home to spend his daughter's birthday.

Daughter Liya is the same age as Li Kang and is studying veterinary medicine.

Speaking of the love history of the Arsenal coach, it is also quite rich. It can only be described in four words: old and strong.

Li Kang held the tablet and walked towards the parking lot step by step.

Chelsea's game video was playing on the screen.

Maguire caught up, leaned his head closer and said:

"Lee, Conte's three-center-back system is rampant in Europe! Even the England and Belgium national teams are imitating this tactic."

"I think this is the self-upgrade of football at a certain stage, just like the process of our evolution from single cells to humans, it is a natural law."

"What do you want to say is the core of Conte's three-center-back system?"

"Of course it's the two wingbacks."

"Even a mediocre player like Moses can become a main player for Chelsea."

That night.

The list of the top eight teams in the Champions League was released:

Atletico Madrid, Naples, Monaco, Leicester City, Real Madrid, Arsenal, Juventus, Bayern Munich.

The number of comments and likes skyrocketed.

-

[Leicester City is lucky. They were slaughtered by Porto with five goals in the group stage, and they were sent to the quarterfinals with good draws all the way. ]

-

[You see, no matter how you play, the Premier League has two places in the quarterfinals, and the points in the European war will increase again. 】

-

[I hope Leo will be selected as a team and not be drawn against a strong opponent. 】

-

[What if they are drawn against Real Madrid? 】

-

[To be honest, Arsenal will face any team among Atletico Madrid, Juventus, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, which is as difficult as the Champions League final. 】

-

[What's so difficult? Didn't Leverkusen, which made it to the semi-finals of the Champions League last season, also get defeated by Leo? 】

-

[.]

-

[I said something was missing in the quarter-finals this year, it turned out that Barcelona was missing! 】

Two days later.

Li Kang once again enjoyed the beautiful scenery along the Leman River.

Quiet and ancient mountains.

Narrow streets.

Colorful windows.

Arsenal staff finally arrived at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

This small country of Switzerland is famous for its "punctuality".

It didn't take long before the exciting UEFA Champions League theme song sounded in the venue.

Li Kang followed the number plate to find his seat, which was between Ronaldo and Buffon.

The Juventus goalkeeper patted his shoulder enthusiastically: "I have been studying your game recently. You can't wait until I retire. We haven't played against each other in the Champions League yet, right?"

Retire?

When will Buffon retire? It is one of the unsolved mysteries in European football.

Ronaldo couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and when he felt Li Kang's eyes looking at him, he immediately returned to a serious expression.

Humph.

The Arsenal midfielder is his strongest competitor for the Champions League Golden Boot this season!

Sitting next to Buffon is Higuain.

Juventus suddenly sent two player representatives this time.

The LED screen on the main stage played the wonderful moments of the Champions League round of 16.

Li Kang's super heavy artillery.

Saul passed four people in a row.

Ronaldo volleyed.

Mbappe's extreme sprint.

Higuain's graceful arc.

The breathtaking scenes made the atmosphere in the venue even more exciting.

Coaches’ seats.

Zidane and Wenger whispered to each other.

I don’t know what the two of them are talking about.

The Real Madrid coach glanced at Li Kang from time to time, while the Arsenal coach looked embarrassed.

Next to him, Simeone frowned: He must conquer the players with his charisma.

Li Kang suddenly felt something soft and hard poking his back.

Turn around and look.

It's Griezmann.

The guy handed over a folded note.

"Our leader asked me to give it to you."

The smile of Atletico Madrid's core was very stiff.

He doesn't like yellow people and has insulted *** on social platforms three times, but this has not affected the number of his fans in Asia at all.

Li Kang unfolded the note and took a look.

The crooked lines and symbols above correspond to Chelsea's three-centre-back formation!

Buffon frowned and quickly interjected: "I have a very good relationship with Conte. There is no need to listen to Simeone. Juventus has the best tactical analysis team in Europe. Let me tell you."

The ceremony went on in an orderly manner.

Host Pedro Pinto did a lot of talking.

About half an hour passed.

Marchetti, who arrived belatedly, announced that he had entered the draw.

The coaches of each club couldn't help but become nervous.

In the audience, Li Kang and Buffon were engrossed in writing and gesturing from time to time.

Ian Rush is a Liverpool legend.

Why is he a guest at this lottery ceremony?

Because he is Welsh.

Because the Champions League final is held in Wales: Cardiff's Millennium Stadium!

"The first match result is out."

"Atletico Madrid vs. Leicester City!"

Simeone looked at Ranieri with a bitter smile on his face.

Let Kanter go.

Leicester City is fighting on multiple fronts and is struggling.

"The results of the second match are out."

"Juventus vs. Monaco!"

Allegri's expression was calm.

Jacob remained calm as well.

The Bianconeri love to end the dark horse's run.

Players' bench.

Buffon breathed a long sigh of relief, took a sip of mineral water, folded the note covered with symbols, and stuffed it into Li Kang's suit pocket.

Then he smiled and said: "Maybe when I retire, we won't have a chance to play against each other in the Champions League."

Wenger took a deep breath and clenched his fists.

Three opponents remain.

He didn't think Arsenal would draw Napoli.

Why do you feel an inexplicable sense of crisis?

"The results of the third match are out."

"Arsenal vs Bayern Munich!"

The whole place was in an uproar.

Bayern has drawn another Premier League team?

Arsenal again?

People have lost count of how many times Bayern have abused Arsenal.

In the Champions League group stage last season, the Bundesliga giants wiped out the arsenal with five goals!

Ancelotti crossed his hands on his chest, full of confidence.

Mueller looked bitter and glanced at Li Kang subconsciously.

People often say: Bayern is a nightmare for Premier League teams and the real king of London.

However, Bayern's nemesis is not only Borussia Monchengladbach, but also that kid Li Kang!

"The result of the fourth match is out!"

"Real Madrid vs. Napoli!"

Ronaldo and Higuain smiled at each other unconsciously.

The two used to be good forward partners.

Time passes.

It felt like I was back to that wonderful night many years ago.

Higuain was about to score a goal alone, but was knocked down by teammate Cristiano Ronaldo. He also received an angry scolding.

But this episode did not affect their friendship.

Ronaldo and Higuain are still good friends.

Buffon raised his hand to interrupt the eye contact between the two.

He said to Higuain: "You are a Juventus player now and have nothing to do with Naples."
