Chapter 680： Regional rivalries in the Champions League

Chapter 680 Competition in the Champions League

Oscar's problem was quickly overshadowed by another news.

In the just-concluded UEFA Champions League group stage, Tottenham lost to Monaco 1:2 at home in Tottenham's home game against Monaco.

Monaco teenager Mbappe went all the way to the ball at an almost crazy speed, scored a goal and made a penalty.

defeated Tottenham Hotspur in the away game.

This is something no one has ever thought of.

Many people felt before the game that Pochettino's Tottenham Hotspur had a certain advantage. No matter from which point of view, Monaco's overall strength was not enough to fight Tottenham.

But in fact, Monaco severely taught Tottenham a lesson in the away game.

This also became a small upset in this round of the group stage.

In addition, Liverpool also lost to Paris Saint-Germain away and lost the game.

Leicester City was tied 2:2 by Bruges away.

Except for Manchester City who defeated Borussia Mönchengladbach 3:0, the rest of the Premier League players all played poorly in the group stage.

In contrast, the results of La Liga, which has been competing with the Premier League, are much better.

First, Barcelona beat the Celtics 7:0.

MSN's striker combination showed great power, showing a crazy goal show.

Real Madrid beat Sporting Lisbon 2:1, and Atletico Madrid beat Eindhoven 1:0 away.

Europa League champion Sevilla also drew 0:0 with the mighty Juventus.

The La Liga teams were undefeated in the first round, which is in stark contrast to the poor performance of the Premier League.

For this reason, many La Liga commentators joked; "The Premier League is just a commercial league. Their overall strength is at the bottom of the five major leagues. Look at them being played by two Ligue 1 teams in such a mess!"

This kind of discourse made many Premier League fans and commentators unbearable.

The two sides once again reported fierce scolding in the air.

However, many people also admit that the performance of the Premier League in the first round was not good.

For this reason, the Premier League gave up the absence of the Champions League. Among the most regrettable stars, Lucky was elected first with no suspenseful votes.

Lucky's performance in the Champions League and the league is obvious to all.

This kind of intensity is not only in the Premier League, no matter which competition area it is placed in, Lucky has a very strong midfield ability.

Even in last season's Champions League match, in the key game between Arsenal and Barcelona, ​​Lucky managed to limit Messi's performance solo.

This is already an extraordinary achievement.

May I ask, who in the entire football world can show Lucky's performance?

That's Messi!

But Lucky did it, and won the first round.

However, Arsenal encountered Waterloo in the final stage of the league and lost their place in the Champions League.

Tottenham took advantage of the situation to overtake and took away Arsenal's Champions League place.

This also made Tottenham stunned for a while, saying that only White Hart Lane in London can watch the Champions League!

The Arsenal fans were itching their teeth with anger, but they could only express angrily, we have the Champions League champion, what do you have?

This topic became the core of the rivalry between the fans of the two sides last season.

And now this topic has been brought up again, and the troublemakers have become Arsenal fans.

They are mocking Tottenham's poor performance in the Champions League.

Scolding between fans is very common, but as long as it does not form a scale, the club will not interfere.

In the Kearney training base, Arsenal is still conducting daily training.

Unlike the past, at the goal of the stadium, Lucky and others gathered together and were passing the ball to Lukaku.

Lukaku's running position is really a bit erratic, so Arteta and Lucky took this guy into the tactical room for further study. After a morning of teaching, Lukaku's running position finally became a little normal.

So, this guy didn't understand Arsenal's tactical system at all before.

He is just waiting for the ball in the penalty area. As for running out of the penalty area, it is all a matter of habit, without any tactical bonus.

This perfectly explains why Mao is always out of tune with the team.

The tactical sensitivity is too low, in layman's terms it is too stupid!

"When retreating, shift to the left and right sides. You have to form a habit, pass the ball at the first time, find your teammates accurately, and turn around and run immediately after passing the ball! Got it?"

Lucky stepped on the ball and said to Lukaku.

Lukaku dressed roughly, wiped his sweat, nodded and said: "Understood!"

Lucky nodded and shouted; "Hummels hold him!"

Hearing this, Hummels stepped forward to confront Lukaku physically.

Lukaku felt the pressure coming from behind, and his whole body tilted slightly, keeping his feet as far away from Hummels as possible to prevent the opponent from pressing.

At the same time, at the moment when Le Kai passed the ball, Lukaku used the inner thigh to force it, and hit it directly with the outer instep.

This pass has a lot of power and a good angle.

Mane rushed forward quickly and caught the ball.

"Beautiful! That's how it kicks!"

Lucy immediately clapped his hands and shouted.

Lukaku also showed a smile, a day of training finally gained some results.

"rest for a bit."

Le Kai signaled everyone to rest, and they came to the sidelines and sat down together.

Lukaku unscrewed the water glass, poured it directly on his head, shook his head, and then exhaled.

"Aren't we here to pass the ball to me?"

Lukaku asked.

Lucky nodded: "Now, before passing the ball to you, we must first let you understand the attacking routine and some movement methods, otherwise how can we pass the ball to you?"

Lukaku nodded slightly.

In fact, Lukaku himself is very aware of the fact that his tactical sensitivity is low. In previous teams, he has tried many times to understand it, but he has always been unable to achieve sufficient results.

And there will be no teammates like Le Kai who will take the initiative to help him with training.

At Arsenal, he feels different from other teams.

Here, everyone plays football very relaxed, and the atmosphere in the team is also very warm.

Robertson also looked at everyone with a smile and joked.

When he first joined Arsenal, Robertson was full of apprehension.

He doesn't know what the rich teams are like, but from the media reports, there are many ugly faces of some rich teams.

In addition, factional disputes, bullying and other phenomena within the team emerge in endlessly. Although the club will soon suppress it, such problems are not uncommon.

Robertson was very nervous at the beginning. He was not good at talking to people, so he didn't know how to integrate into the team.

But after coming here, he felt that he had done nothing and said nothing.

But it just blends in naturally.

He didn't even know how to improve the relationship with his teammates, so he got acquainted with each other inexplicably, and soon started joking and joking with each other.

Robertson looked up, he saw Le Kai glanced at the time, and clapped his hands; "Okay. The rest is over, continue training!"

"It's only five minutes!"

Wilshere groaned strangely.

Lucky got angry: "Five minutes is enough. How long do you want to rest? It's too late to race against time for training. Our task today is to let Romelu understand how to run?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, feeling that this sentence was weird.

Lukaku on the side was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his hand and said, "Captain, I'm just a little stupid."

"You know it too! Why didn't you take the initiative to explain it?"

Lukaku was wronged: "Who would take the initiative to say that he is a fool?"

Lucy was stunned.

The other teammates blinked, and then roared with laughter, and they laughed hard.

Le Kai is also dumbfounded; "Okay, let's go to training, do you still want to score goals!"

"Think!" Lukaku said with a firm look; "I will become Arsenal's top scorer!"

Actually, Lukaku's recent pressure has become great again.

The reason is that Suarez, Arsenal's previous center, broke out in Barcelona.

Both the Champions League and the League staged a hat-trick, and the state is terrifying.

On the other hand, Lukaku didn't even score a fraction of the opponent's goal, which made him very nervous.

They want to score!

They want to prove themselves!

He wants to tell Arsenal fans that the current one is better than the previous one!

"Practice another hour of retracement and transfer, and then start the training match!"

Lucky roared.

The crowd responded loudly:

"receive!"

boom!

Boom! !

"hurry up!"

"Boost!"

In the stadium, intense training continues, and all Arsenal players are sweating and training hard.

They firmly believe that sweat and training will not betray themselves.

For the championship, for the honor, they will become stronger!
