Chapter 172 It's Time to Calculate the Rounds of Winning the Championship in Advance [Please Subscribe! ]

"The little lion has penetrated the opponent's central defense for three consecutive games. This can't be called luck, right?"

"It's definitely not luck. Occasionally, this performance can be considered luck. Three consecutive games, and in the Champions League, this is a manifestation of strength!"

"Well, in fact, I think the current midfield configuration of Arsenal and Manchester United is really not good. At least it can't be considered the first echelon of football. It still depends on the game against Bayern."

"Yes, Bayern's current game is also stable. Martinez + Schweinsteiger's midfield combination is very strong!"

"It's useless. The best midfield combination in Europe is in Real Madrid. No matter how strong Bayern is, it can't suppress Real Madrid's midfield."

"That's right, but I think Real Madrid still needs to be mentally prepared in advance."

When Real Madrid took a 2-0 lead over Manchester United, the fans in China immediately felt relieved.

Seeing that Real Madrid has stepped into the final four of the Champions League this season, everyone began to discuss Li Ang's performance eagerly.

Playing against Arsenal and Manchester United, Li Ang blew up the opposing defenders in the middle.

The way of strong penetration was a bit rough, and Li Ang mostly chose to pass the ball after penetrating the opponent's defense.

If you have to say that he beat the opponent by himself, that's not the case, and there is no beauty in passing.

But Li Ang's contribution to the top three in the winning games is still more than enough.

This is something that fans in China and other countries will not deny.

In this game, Li Ang even opened the scoring, and a burst shot directly destroyed Manchester United's tactical balance!

Most of the comments of domestic fans on Li Ang are filtered.

So it is inevitable that some aspects will be exaggerated.

But at this moment in Europe, as long as the fans who watched this game, their feelings about Li Ang are actually only one word:

Strong!

Manchester United fans are very angry, but also helpless.

This is the gap in pure personal strength in the midfield.

In the first half, Cleverley and Anderson could not stop Li Ang from running wildly, and the defense was hit hard first.

In the second half, Manchester United attacked, and Li Ang was the only one in the backcourt.

Even though Essien's condition has declined a lot compared to last season, Li Ang still helped Essien to hold up the interception line in front of Alonso!

It was already the 80th minute of the second half, and Real Madrid shrank their formation and defended after scoring the second goal.

The besieged Manchester United players were a little exhausted, but Li Ang could still steal the ball from time to time and run towards Manchester United's half!

This physical strength is outrageous!

Manchester United fans didn't care at all that Li Ang had run thirteen or fourteen kilometers.

They just wanted to see the encouraging scene of Manchester United scoring a goal.

But unfortunately, Mourinho replaced Albiol and Matuidi at the last moment.

Di Maria and Benzema were both off the field, leaving only Ronaldo in Real Madrid's frontcourt to intimidate Manchester United's defense.

Real Madrid's iron bucket formation was full.

Three central defenders with strong header ability were in the penalty area, and four defensive midfielders were lined up in front of the defense!

In this era when excellent defensive midfielders are increasingly scarce, Real Madrid's four defensive midfielders are too luxurious.

Manchester United's fans were envious and painful!

Not to mention Leon and Alonso, even if they were given a Matuidi or even a declining Essien!

They might still be able to fight Real Madrid in this game.

Unfortunately, they couldn't.

As the game gradually came to an end, the Red Devils fans felt more and more powerless.

Finally, after Albiol won the header again, the referee blew the whistle to end the game!

Ferguson took one last look at the court, then turned his head without hesitation to greet Mourinho who was walking towards him.

"Jose."

"Sir."

After the two shook hands and hugged, they also talked for a while on the sidelines.

Just like Mourinho and Wenger before.

After not competing in the same league, the story between them that was once full of gunpowder is just a story.

Today, only old friends in the same industry are here.

"If I had spent money to buy Li Ang in the summer of 2011, do you think it would be Manchester United celebrating the victory at Old Trafford today?"

After greeting, Sir Alex Ferguson suddenly asked Mourinho this question while holding his arm.

Mourinho was a little surprised that Ferguson would ask such a question.

He thought for a moment, and to his surprise again, he couldn't confidently say the word "No!"

"Although it's meaningless to assume, if Leon's growth rate remains the same, I have to be honest. I don't know." Mourinho's honesty made Ferguson laugh. The two agreed to have a drink in Ferguson's stadium conference room later and then said goodbye to each other.

At this moment in Old Trafford, Ronaldo and Rooney high-fived and hugged each other, while Carrick and Alonso covered their mouths and talked.

Li Ang took off his jersey and exchanged jerseys with the slightly shy Black Bay.

From the beginning to the end of this game, there was actually not much gunpowder.

Manchester United's players were more helpless after trying their best.

Before the game started, the players on both sides knew what level they were in and whether they had a chance to advance to the next round of the Champions League.

Compared with the strength gap between Barcelona and Manchester United in the 2011 final, the strength gap between Real Madrid and Manchester United is actually even greater now.

This is the gap in hard power of the entire team. It is difficult for individual performance to reverse the situation when the team is suppressed as a whole.

Although Manchester United was more offensive and Real Madrid was more defensive in the second half today, Real Madrid did suppress Manchester United in the situation.

The crazy half-court sweep and oppressive defense brought great pressure to Manchester United's players and fans.

We can only talk about trying our best. Apart from trying our best, reviewing this game can't bring more gains to the current Manchester United.

After today's game, all Manchester United players actually know.

The Red Devils they are in.

It's time to rebuild.

When Real Madrid returned to Madrid, they were greeted by praises from almost all Spanish media.

After Barcelona's decline, Real Madrid took over the banner of the La Liga team in the Champions League. Since last season, it has been steadily defeating all strong opponents, and it really deserves this dividend of public opinion.

At the same time, Dortmund, who returned to Germany, also enjoyed similar public praise.

Because they beat their opponents by two goals away from home, just like Real Madrid.

3-1, Dortmund used their signature fast attack to conquer Galatasaray's so-called devil's home!

With three away goals in hand, Dortmund is basically sure to enter the next round of the Champions League knockouts.

Without much media publicity, a strong fighting spirit has already spread between Real Madrid and Dortmund.

Dortmund lost to Real Madrid by one goal in both games in the group stage, and they must be extremely unwilling.

Klopp and Dortmund players will naturally hope to successfully take revenge when they meet Real Madrid again on the stage of the Champions League semi-finals.

Real Madrid is naturally not afraid of another challenge.

If Real Madrid can win the two encounters in the group stage, then Real Madrid will still be the final winner in the subsequent semi-finals!

This is the confidence and confidence of the defending champion!

If you don't accept it, then fight again.

Real Madrid will let Dortmund players understand that it is not possible to win everything by being young and frivolous.

Taste failure first, and after failure, you can still stand firm and have the courage to climb to the top again. Then Dortmund can talk about the possibility of defeating Real Madrid and winning the Champions League.

In terms of experience, mentality, and strength, this season, basically only Bayern Munich can have the final battle with Real Madrid.

Mourinho can set his sights very low and play every game now.

But his ambition is also very high.

In the Valdebebas base in Madrid, when Real Madrid players are enjoying a short vacation and adjusting their physical condition.

Mourinho's eyes are already staring at Dortmund in northern Germany, and all the way south, aiming at Munich!

He knows that this season's Real Madrid will eventually make a new break with Bayern in the Champions League final.

Barcelona can't stop Bayern who are fully in form.

Just like Dortmund can't stop Real Madrid who have made up their minds.

Maybe

After he speaks out his inner thoughts, he will get "arrogant" public opinion evaluation.

But he doesn't care, he is a madman.

And now, he has the most powerful super team in Europe!

※※※

On the evening of April 3, the remaining four teams in the Champions League quarterfinals appeared in battle.

After 90 minutes of fierce battle, Juventus finally lost to the tough Bayern at home and lost 1-2.

To be honest, if the forward combination can be upgraded to a higher level and "match" Juventus's foundation, then Juventus may really have a chance to continue to compete with Bayern.

After all, Juventus' midfield combination of Vidal, Pirlo and Marchisio is very strong!

It is stronger than most fans expected before the game.

The midfield can compete, and the defense is still stable, but the forward line can't really hold up.

Bayern has a forward trident of Muller + Ribery + Mandzukic, and Robben and Gomez are sitting on the bench.

Juventus has Quagliarella + Matri, and Vucinic + Giovinco are sitting on the bench.

This really can't be compared on the same level.

Juventus is expected to be in trouble in the second round at the Allianz Arena in Munich, and the finishing ability is really weaker than one level.

But now Juventus is fully worthy of the "promising future" strength assessment.

Continue to renovate the forward line in the summer window and do more running-in next year. Juventus will always have a place among the future Champions League giants.

Juventus lost to Bayern at home, but Paris Saint-Germain, another team at home in the bottom half of the Champions League quarterfinals, drew with Barcelona!

Ibrahimovic, who scored twice, completed his revenge at the last moment!

His brilliance made Barcelona's two away goals dim.

If Ibrahimovic still maintains this anger, he will definitely continue to embarrass Pique in the second round at Camp Nou.

So far, the first round of the Champions League quarter-finals has all ended.

Three of the games have been decided, and only Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain tied in the first round.

In the second round, the game between Barcelona and Paris should still be the most tense.

Such a result really made Barcelona fans feel a little bad.

But soon, a more uncomfortable scene appeared in the La Liga arena.

On the afternoon of April 5, Real Madrid, who made an early appearance at home at the Bernabeu, slaughtered Levante 7-0 in a state of explosion!

Real Madrid fans are counting the remaining games of this season and the points lead over Barcelona, ​​and have begun shouting for winning the championship early!
