Volume 7, Chapter 196: The Champions League Is Coming

With the game over. The dispute with the Hong Kong team has also temporarily come to an end. As the captain of the Chinese team, Zhou Tiancheng has already expressed his attitude and done what he should do. The rest is not what he should care about as a professional player. All the focus is on This "Great China Derby" between China and Hong Kong seems to have ignored the fact that the Chinese team still has a match against the Maldives.

Because the opponent's strength is too weak, the opponent's FIFA ranking is only 165th, which belongs to the bottom of the crane among the more than 200 member associations of FIFA. If you really want to play an away game in the Maldives, there may be some problems. It may make the national team players play with a vacation mentality. The old national football team that scored in the 2002 World Cup had only a small victory in the away game in the Maldives.

But the situation is different now. The Malé Stadium, the only venue of the other side that can host international matches, was seriously damaged due to the large-scale event hosting the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Maldives. The Maldives originally hoped to switch their home games with the Chinese team, but the Chinese Football Association did not agree. They have already signed a bidding agreement with Wuhan Sports Center for hosting the home game against the Maldives in March next year. Both sides in Macau, China were dissatisfied. The final result was that the Maldives voluntarily gave up their home court and gave up the home court to the Chinese team.

This is naturally a good thing for the Chinese team, but fans will still criticize the decision of the Football Association to set up the home game in Shenzhen for the previous match with the Hong Kong team. Convenience, look at the present, this game is finally scheduled to be held in Shenyang, I really don't know what the old men think. If it weren't for the strong strength of the Chinese team, the early goal made everyone relax, and it might become the opponent's home court after kicking.

Fans are thankful that the Chinese team has Zhou Tiancheng, and now we have more than Zhou Tiancheng.

In the game against the Maldives, Lippi simply did not let Zhou Tiancheng play for a minute. In fact, after communicating with Zhou Tiancheng, Lippi did not take him to Shenyang to play against the Maldives from a subtropical island in South Asia. The Chinese team really took advantage of it. With the advantages of the right time, place and people, he can win without Zhou Tiancheng, and such a game does not require him to appear on the stage to be popular.

Zhou Tiancheng bid farewell to the team in Shenzhen. Wu Sanshi and Jiang Hao gave him a more playful look. The reason Zhou Tiancheng told them was to go back to prepare for the Champions League. In fact, this is also Lippi’s consideration. He has This confidence and confidence.

It's no wonder Jiang Hao didn't think too much about it. The first game of the Champions League in Group G was Manchester United's away game against AC Milan. The two happened to meet each other. Zhou Tiancheng went back to prepare to deal with them.

"Brother Cheng, go back and prepare well! Come to my territory and don't be cut too badly." Jiang Hao is very confident, and his hometown accent in Northeast China is so strong.

"Take care of yourself, just do two things: don't get hurt, if you can't get in, Milan really has nothing to attract me now. Second, wash up and wait for me."

Zhou Tiancheng bid farewell to the team amidst everyone's laughter. Wu Sanshi beside him didn't say anything, but he secretly worked hard in his heart. Right now, this opponent was a good opportunity for him to adjust his state. The La Liga schedule is earlier, and he has played two rounds and he has not scored a goal. In the first round of the new season's Champions League, they will face Leverkusen away. This is the famous home dragon of the Bundesliga. Maybe Zhou Tiancheng before It is not a challenge for his two old clubs, but it is not a small difficulty for him.

Mourinho had long been waiting at the base for the players recruited by their respective national teams to return to the team one after another. When he walked into the base one morning and saw Zhou Tiancheng practicing extra training on the training ground, he breathed a sigh of relief.

No one was hurt, not a single one. Lukaku, Fellaini, De Gea, Matic... almost half of the team went or came back.

Mourinho didn't say anything on the surface, he expressed his attitude with the most practical actions: practice more!

"Very well, guys. I'm glad your national team managers are men of conscience,

Did not destroy you to death. Ha, then let me do this thing, you look very energetic, then for the Champions League, you should do more, let's start, let's do it! For the UEFA Champions League - Champions! "

It is no secret within the team that Mourinho has never been willing to be inferior. In football, one word is usually used to describe this kind of person who is crazy about winning: champion personality.

Zhou Tiancheng has this kind of personality, Mourinho has it, and Ronaldo has it too, which is almost standard for the rich.

This is also the reason why Manchester United reluctantly wanted to get rid of Giggs and invite Mourinho. Giggs is very loose with the team and can become brothers with most of the players in the team. In terms of the atmosphere in the room, Giggs is a very good firefighting coach, and he has to put the team on the right track first. However, this season Manchester United also has the Champions League, which is probably the most brutal football competition on the planet, even surpassing the World Cup. For this "newborn" Manchester United, Zhou Tiancheng is not enough - a good horse must be equipped with a good saddle.

The UEFA Champions League match day has not yet arrived. After the international match day, both Serie A and the Premier League have another round of league matches. However, in the city of Milan, which is far away on the other side of the European continent, this restlessness is far stronger than Manchester.

"Gazzetta dello Sport" only wrote five words on the topic of the Champions League preview: Milan is back!

The UEFA Champions League is coming. Manchester United and AC Milan are both traditional giants in Europe. They met in the group stage in a dramatic way. All in all, they can only get the third tier. They did not qualify for the European competition last season, which seriously hindered them.

The giants who have won the Champions League seven times are mixed up to this point... Of course, the Milanese don’t think they are worse than Manchester United. "Gazzetta dello Sport" even threatened: AC Milan can best represent the essence of Italian football, and Manchester United will soon taste it. The taste of fruitless harvest!

I really don’t know whether the reporter of Gazzetta dello Sport who wrote this forward-looking article blushed. As a diehard fan of AC Milan, it is understandable to have unconditional trust in his team, but it is ridiculous to advocate it on the stage.

If Inzaghi was sitting on the coaching bench last season, perhaps some people would still believe that although Inzaghi's performance in leading the team is definitely not good, it is different now. The coach of the Rossoneri is Mi Hajlovic - the gentleman who kept bottom-placed Catania out of relegation last season...

Now he is taking this old but definitely not old-fashioned AC Milan to meet Mourinho.
