Chapter 166

European Super Cup (Monthly tickets are requested for the second update!)

Judging from the situation in the first round of the league, the Premier League competition this season may be very fierce. Because all the traditional strong teams have won... Liverpool won Sunderland 3:1 away, Arsenal defeated West Bromvic 1:0 at home, Chelsea defeated Stoke City 4:0 at home, Manchester United defeated Newcastle United 2:1 at home, and Manchester City defeated Aston Villa 4:2 away.[]

"There are no upsets, no suspense, all the strong teams pass the mark. This indicates that the Premier League will be more fierce this season. Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool's traditional semi-finals are all very good. Although Manchester City lost the championship at the last moment for two consecutive seasons, their management made a very correct decision. After a summer full of rumors, they left Mancini, so Manchester City also continued their strong performance in the past two seasons, beating Aston Villa 4:2 away... It seems that the Premier League this season can give us more expectations."

"In addition, Tottenham and Everton have performed well. This season's Premier League has the grand occasion of the Serie A World Cup, and many teams have the strength to compete. It seems that the overlord Manchester United is facing many challenges from their opponents..."

Liverpool, who had a good start in the league, continued to work hard in the second round, and they defeated Stoke City 2:1 at home.

Two rounds of league games have passed, Liverpool won two games, but Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea also won two games, but Arsenal lost the game and temporarily fell behind in this long-distance race.

After playing this league, the whole Liverpool team is preparing for the European Super Cup with Real Madrid.

In addition, Liverpool General Manager Nian has to represent the club to go to Monaco to participate in the new season's Champions League group draw ceremony.

Chen Yingxiong also followed the team to Monaco, but he did not participate in the lottery ceremony. Although UEFA invited him because he was one of the three candidates for the UEFA Golden Ball this season, many media have already revealed in advance that the honor of this UEFA Golden Ball Award will belong to Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, who led Real Madrid to win the domestic league championship and the Champions League championship. Chen Yingxiong is not a foil.

Chen Yingxiong doesn't do this kind of thing to do for others. Not to mention that Ronaldo, like Messi, is not in the way of dealing with Chen Yingxiong.

Why support someone you don’t deal with?

Chen Yingxiong simply refused UEFA's invitation as he was going to concentrate on preparing for the Super Cup, so there were only two candidates - Messi and Ronaldo.

Anyone with discerning eyes can see that Chen Yingxiong is uncomfortable with UEFA and the two candidates. However, everyone knows that this is Chen Yingxiong's style, so there is no fuss. Only a very small number of people complain that Chen Yingxiong is too rude to do this. Those who say this are still media from Portugal, Spain and Argentina.

Chen Yingxiong ignored it.

In fact, it is not entirely an excuse to find casually without wanting to go. This European Super Cup is indeed very important for Chen Yingxiong. Because once Cristiano Ronaldo wins the award, he will have a chance to talk directly with him. He wants to defeat Ronaldo in this game not to prove that he is more worthy of the Golden Ball Award than Ronaldo. The Golden Ball Award values ​​team honors more. The UEFA Cup champion is indeed not as heavy as the Champions League champion. He also knows... He just wants to disturb the Ronaldo's celebration banquet and add some unexpected troubles...

To put it bluntly, it’s just a disgusting opponent who dislikes each other.

As expected, Platini finally awarded the Golden Ball Award to Ronaldo, who was cheerful. The Portuguese was suppressed by Messi for many years and finally successfully regained the Golden Ball Award with the explosion last season.

Although Messi next to him was applauding, the lonely expression on his face also made many of his fans feel heartbroken for him.

If this Golden Globe Award belongs to him, his supporters would have been eager to shout out the title of "New King of Balls", but he was shot by Ronaldo at the most critical moment.

While the whole world was broadcasting the award ceremony and the lottery ceremony, Chen Yingxiong did not watch it. He was practicing hard in the dungeon.

Proficient in using left-foot ball control is very painful and difficult for Chen Yingxiong, a non-left-handed man. Not to mention that the person who passed the ball to him deliberately made things difficult for him Maradona.

But Chen Yingxiong has still made great progress. This is firstly due to his persistence, and then the training effect bonus in the dungeon. Another important factor is the talent of "reverse foot precision". Since obtaining this talent, Chen Yingxiong threw all the talent points he obtained from his upgrade. Currently, this talent has been upgraded to level 4. Now every level upgrade requires a lot of experience, and upgrading is much more difficult than before. It is indeed not easy for Chen Yingxiong to upgrade to level three in such a short time after obtaining this talent.

The UEFA Cup mission helped him a lot, otherwise he would have to upgrade by accumulating experience points in training alone, and he would not know that he would have to go to the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month.

When Chen Yingxiong was tortured by Maradona for another hour and a half, he collapsed to the ground, his chest undulating violently, and his whole body was like fished out of the water.

But he was very happy because he heard a "ding" sound just now!

This sound effect means he has been upgraded again!

Having obtained a brand new talent point, his left foot ability has reached a higher level!

When Chen Yingxiong thought that his left foot ability was stronger than he is now, he felt very excited and accomplished.

People say that Cristiano Ronaldo is the most comprehensive player in the world today. I, Chen Yingxiong, want them to see who is the most comprehensive!

Twenty-four hours after the award ceremony, the European Super Cup opened at the Louis II Stadium in Monaco.

Last season's Champions League champion Real Madrid vs. Europa League champion Liverpool!

Real Madrid is strong and Liverpool is not inferior. This is a top European duel at the truly giant level. It is not like the past Europa League winners mostly second-rate league teams or second-rate teams in first-rate leagues. It is not like the competition among European kings at all.

This time, whether it is Liverpool or Real Madrid, there are many records worthy of their pride in the European game - the combined number of Champions League wins of these two teams has reached fifteen times! It is one of the most successful teams in European football history.

And these two teams have a lot of connections.

There are gratitude and grudges.

Real Madrid's current head coach Mourinho was very close to the Champions League final when coaching Chelsea. However, his team was defeated by Liverpool in the semi-finals by a penalty shootout. He has coached at Chelsea for many years and has not been able to lead the team to the finals, which has become his regret.

Secondly, he once defeated Liverpool at Chelsea and won the League Cup final, making a "shut-up" gesture to Liverpool fans, which caused an uproar and also showed his attitude towards Liverpool.

He once said that he would never coach Liverpool. Although he did not disclose the reason, everyone is guessing that this may be because he wants to take over Ferguson and coach Manchester United, so he will not choose to coach Manchester United's arch rival Liverpool.

Mourinho's relationship with Liverpool is a personal grudge.

Also in a personal grudge, Liverpool players' views on Cristiano Ronaldo - in the Premier League, Ronaldo was not liked by Liverpool players because he was a Manchester United player and Liverpool's mortal enemy. Now that Liverpool has Chen Yingxiong, they even think that compared with Chen Yingxiong, Ronaldo is a big deal! Yesterday, Ronaldo won the UEFA Golden Ball Award, and Liverpool players are still very upset for Chen Yingxiong. They think that in terms of strength, Chen Yingxiong is not inferior to Ronaldo. Ronaldo can win the Golden Ball Award, but his fame accumulation is greater than Chen Yingxiong...

The grudge between Liverpool and Real Madrid is the team. Real Madrid once slapped hard by Liverpool in the Champions League. It was the 2008-09 season. In the Champions League quarter-finals, Real Madrid was beaten 1:0 by Liverpool at home, and was swept 4:0 by Liverpool when they went away. The game was full of controversial punishments, so Real Madrid was not convinced. Later, the two teams never met again.

Of course, both sides are not completely "resentful". There are players who have played for each other in both teams. There are Xavi, Alonso and Aberoa in Real Madrid, and Shahin in Liverpool. This has somewhat enhanced the connection between the two teams. It is worth mentioning that Alonso and Aberoa both participated in the Champions League knockout round that year that year, which beat Real Madrid 4-0 at home. They were Liverpool players at that time.

In addition, there is something that always reminds two teams of each other—

In the 2011-2012 season, Real Madrid once had a away jersey, which was all red.

Since both teams were still Adidas at the time, this red away jersey from Real Madrid would make people think it was Liverpool's home jersey at a glance.

Even Xavi Alonso said that when he was wearing this red jersey, he felt strange - "I always think I'm still fighting for Liverpool..."

It can be said that this game is tense for some people, but for others, it is probably quite warm...

Alonso not only shook hands when the players of both sides shook hands, but also hugged Gerald. The two were midfield partners at Liverpool. Liverpool reversed AC Milan and created the miracle of Istanbul. On that night, the two sounded the horn of Liverpool's counterattack in the midfield. Gerald scored a goal, and Alonso scored a penalty, equalized the score, and completely defeated the psychological defense of AC Milan.

Alonso was still quite young at that time. Now he has become a veteran... Two former teammates and friends meet again on the court, and it is inevitable that they feel a little sad.

Chen Yingxiong and Cristiano Ronaldore are both global spokespersons of live football, but both of them look down on each other. They both think that they are the most awesome and arrogant people. It is enough to have me in this world with such an arrogant person, and the other one is completely redundant.

Therefore, when the two shook hands, they had a tacit understanding, and no one looked at each other with a direct look. Chen Yingxiong looked into the distance and looked at the stands in front of him. Ronaldo simply turned his head while shook hands.
