Chapter 210: The Battle of Red and Blue (1)
A group fight made Lao Lei unexpectedly become the big man among the young players of the Portuguese national team, and even Ronaldo, who had always coveted Lao Lei's position, did not raise any objection this time. Whether it is because he is grateful to Yu Lao Lei for standing up for him, anyway, he should not challenge and impact Lao Lei's position again for the time being.
In addition, Lao Lei and others also ushered in another good news. That is, the police they had been waiting for anxiously did not arrive a few days after the fact, and it seemed that there should be no problem. In this regard, the young players are all relieved with fear. No matter how gentle Scolari's coaching attitude is, once there is a scandal in his team of players drinking and fighting before the game, even Lao Lei will probably be severely reprimanded by him, enough to drink a pot.
Not only did he overfulfill the task of learning to be a captain, but he also made a lot of trouble all over the world, I have to say that Lao Lei's good luck during this time is really good. And, obviously, he carried that good fortune to the next two World Preliminary Tournaments.
Due to the team's already top qualifier and Mourinho's request, although Lao Lei started in both games, he only played half of the game. In the face of the reasons given by Scolari to train and cultivate newcomers, Lao Lei also felt that it was understandable and willingly accepted such an arrangement. However, half of the game is half of the game, Lao Lei's play is still the most brilliant of the two games, and he won the best player of the two games in two halves.
Two halves in a row, two consecutive passes and one shot, Lao Lei's excellent performance allowed Portugal to complete the undefeated record of the World Preliminary Tournament without blood. Among them, in the first half of the match against Latvia, Lao Lei also completed another wonderful goal that caused a burst of amazing admiration after the game.
In the 37th minute of the first half, Lao Lei won the ball in the middle of the field. Faced with the Latvian three-man circle about to take shape, he burst forward with the ball strongly, and two consecutive Marseille spins, directly two Latvian defenders dangled to the wolf to the ground. Then, just as people were waiting for him to dribble into the box, he unexpectedly chose a volley on the line of the penalty area, which caught the Latvian goalkeeper completely off guard. When the football was hung into the net, Lao Lei caused a burst of worship from the Portuguese fans at the scene. Rao is in Portugal, which has always paid attention to technique and beautiful football, and peerless goals like Lao Lei are also extremely rare.
Lao Lei's goal was Portugal's second goal in the first half and the most exciting of the seven goals in the game. Since Portugal has already qualified for the top of the group, and Latvia is also hopeless of qualifying, both sides have chosen an open offensive tactic in the game, and this has directly been the huge score of 5:2. Whether it's a strong confrontation or not, this is undoubtedly an extremely exciting battle of attack. As the Portuguese National Sport newspaper commented after the game: "For us, it was a feast to enjoy football, and Remaier's goal was the most enjoyable delicacy for us!" ”
After the match against Latvia, Portugal finally finished all the 06 World Preliminary Tournaments in Germany. The next time Portugal will appear in a major tournament will be the German summer of '06. However, this is still too far away, and the most realistic thing for Ray is to end the international break, return to Chelsea and continue the new season on all fronts.
At this time, since the time is already in mid-October, the selection of the European Footballer of the Year and the World Footballer of the Year has entered the final stage. Among them, Lao Lei, who led Chelsea to a treble last season, is naturally the biggest favorite to be named Mr. Duo, and the huge success of the team honour makes him directly superior www.biquge.info to the other contenders.
However, these do not guarantee that Lao Lei will be elected. Because these two criteria for the evaluation of the footballer are for a whole year after all, and the situation of Lao Lei's injury for more than a month at the beginning of the new season puts him at a relative disadvantage in the new season's score.
If this point is not surprising, it will become a point that Lao Lei is focused on in the selection. What's more, because he is the winner of the last Mr. Double, when he is evaluated by the judges, his selection criteria will be invisibly higher than other competitors. Therefore, if Lao Lei wants to make these two footballers come this year without suspense and without any objections, he must perform well in the period before the official end of his selection.
Fortunately, Lao Lei's performance in the next series of events did not disappoint the outside world. It is precisely because of his outstanding performance that Chelsea's unbeaten run in the new season continues to expand in the eyes of astonishment. After returning to Chelsea, the first game he played was at home to Bolton Wanderers in the ninth round of the Premier League. In this game, Lao Lei came on as a substitute in the 60th minute of the second half, when Chelsea had already led Bolton Wanderers 3-1.
Mourinho's arrangement is naturally due to the fact that Lao Lei will be a little tired both physically and mentally from going back and forth during the international break. However, after coming on the field, Lao Lei immediately used the table that set off a burst of enthusiastic exclamations at home, telling Mourinho that he was at the peak of his state at this time, and he did not need such a rest and adjustment at all.
After coming on the field, he first helped Drogba complete the brace of the game in the 73rd minute of the second half with a straight ball that shook two people in a row. Then, with a precise assist from a free-kick up front, Joe Cole, who came on as a substitute before him, opened the Premier League goal account for the new season with a header that he was not good at, and then gave Chelsea the most goals scored in a big win this season.
Chelsea then returned to the Champions League group stage when they hosted their final group opponents, Real Betis in La Liga. In this game, Lao Lei started again and scored two passes and one shot after only 65 minutes, thus once again being the most valuable player after a Champions League match.
First of all, as soon as the game started, Chelsea completely overwhelmed Real Betis on the field under the organization of Lao Lei, and began to dominate in all aspects. Against La Liga teams, known for their footwork and ground advancement, Ray's Chelsea showed a ability to press on the ball as well as any team. After failing to score in the opening three-board attack, Real Betis were completely crushed by Chelsea in their own half, with only Wolves fighting against it.
The first goal of the game came in the 25th minute of the first half, when a series of links from the edge of the box by the likes of Lao Lei and Guò completely shattered the Real Betis defence, and Frank Lampard took advantage of the chaos to get a long-range opportunity. His powerful volley didn't go straight to the scoresheet, but it also denied Real Betis goalkeeper Dobras. And this indirectly gave Lao Lei a good opportunity to show his talent for smell in front of the goal, when Lao Lei hurried to the ball at his feet, Lineker even blurted out directly: "Who is he?!" I never knew Chelsea also had a number 13 for a world-class striker!! ”
After this goal, the situation fell completely into Chelsea's control, and Real Betis never had a chance to counter-attack. In Chelsea's extraordinary attack, Ray provided two assists in the 35th and 44th minutes of the first half, helping Crespo and Robben, who had just returned from injury. Among them, the assist in the 35th minute was the most exciting.
This is a classic old thunder-style assist, after a successful counter-attack in the midfield, a long-distance direct hit to the back of the opposing defender, thus forming an assist. The same was true for Crespo, who had a great one-on-one chance to face Dobras after cutting through two defenders in a row. The veteran Argentine striker didn't miss the opportunity, getting his first official start for Chelsea off to a good start with a clever pick-and-finish from his first official start for Chelsea. In the post-match commentary, some media described Lao Lei's assist: "Godzilla's claws are like a sharp scalpel at this moment, easily slicing through Real Betis's chest. ”
In the end, Chelsea won a big win at home with a huge 4-0 advantage. However, just as people were waiting to see how long Chelsea's winning streak would continue in the new season, David Moyes' Everton ended Chelsea's winning streak with a 1-1 draw at home in the Premier League. Although this is the reason why most of Chelsea's main players such as Lao Lei were left at the Chelsea training base by Mourinho, no victory is no victory, and Everton avenged the second round of the Champions League group stage.
Chelsea then continued their devil's schedule of two games a week. First, they played their first game of the 05/06 League Cup on the third day after their match with Everton. In this game, Lao Lei and others did not enter the squad again. However, Chelsea, who came on as all substitutes, did not disappoint Jose Mourinho this time around, 2-1, and were in danger of progressing to the next round of the Carabao Cup at home.
Since then, Chelsea have won two more games each. First of all, at home 4:2 loudly Blackburn, Lao Ray contributed two assists to the excellent table. Then, in the Stadio Lopera against Real Betis, he contributed the only goal of the game, scoring a beautiful direct free-kick through the door guarded by Dobras, successfully helping Chelsea to win four consecutive Champions League group stage victories, and the task of ensuring the top spot in the group is almost complete.
This series of excellent performances on various fronts after the end of the national team competition made the London media and even the English media full of confidence to make Lao Lei earn enough applause and momentum in the selection of the two footballer of the year. But there is no objection to it, and this series of unbeaten games does not have enough gold content for the opponent's deposit, which has been exaggerated and emphatically described by someone with a heart. For a while, the outside world was also talking about this.
However, just when the outside world was talking about Lao Lei, a big battle full of gold was coincidentally placed in front of Lao Lei.
In the 12th round of the Premier League, he visited Old Trafford to challenge the new Red Devils who were gradually rebuilding and taking shape.
With Alex Ferguson shouting that he will definitely snipe at Chelsea, no one doubts that this will not be a supergame.
Seeing the rich smell of gunpowder from another big war wafting into his nose, Lao Lei's battle blood boiled again in an instant!
