Chapter 362 The second round full of gunpowder

*****

the next day.

Unsurprisingly, the mainstream media in Europe began to report on the upcoming second leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-final with Aiello's "scoring foot cramp" as the headline.

"Marca" also boldly predicted the result of the game on the headlines of the day, "Three days ago, Barcelona not only paid tribute to the champion at the Calderon Stadium, but also surrendered the Copa del Rey champion in the last 4 minutes. It is really generous to the extreme. It really is a tribute to the champion!

And there was no big surprise in this game. Although Valencia lost Vicente, they still have Ai who is in excellent condition. We have reason to believe that Valencia will beat Barcelona by two goals at home, just like in the 23rd round of the league.

What's interesting is that Ai satirized Barcelona in an interview yesterday, but what he said was very reasonable. He scored 15 goals against Barcelona in five games, so he has his own capital to show off, unlike some teams who only insinuate..."

When Van Bommel saw the news about Aiello, he was not angry at all. On the day of the game, he said in an interview with the media, "I don't know what that Chinese kid thinks. He dares to say such shit. I will definitely make him unforgettable in tonight's game!"

Van Bommel's hostile words got the reporters excited again.

What was the most exciting thing before the game?Either the coaches of the two sides have a big war of words, or there is a gunpowder-flavored battle between the players, and Van Bommel's words fully conform to this rule.

Aiello is now a big hit in Valencia, and Van Bommel dared to warn Ailuo in Valencia's territory, so soon, the hot-tempered Marchena and Baraja also gave their own opinions when they were interviewed by the media.

As the boss of the 'Seven Brothers', Marchena is naturally obliged to stand up and defend Aiello, "You must know that this is the Mestalla Stadium. If he is really like this, I bet! He will never leave Valencia!!"

When Marchena finished speaking, the surrounding Valencia fans applauded, and some fans who had good deeds even clenched their fists, looking eager to try.

Baraja also talked about Van Bommel's words, "Some people are like this. They have been humiliated countless times on the football field, but they always hope to get revenge, but the result is the same every time. The humiliation fails and they are humiliated..."

Although Baraja's words are not as direct as Marchena's, anyone with a brain knows that his words are more unacceptable.

Indeed, when Baraja's words reached Van Bommel's ears, the latter's neck turned red.

As the time of the game drew closer, in the first few hours of the game, players from both sides once again used the mouths of the idle egg-painful media to fight a battle of words.

And the smell of gunpowder is getting stronger and stronger.

In the end, even Barcelona coach Rijkaard and Valencia coach Flores joined in.

Rijkaard is well aware that his recent record with Valencia coached by Flores is not satisfactory, so he talked about this issue from another angle, "It doesn't matter how big the score was before this game, that is just a thing of the past, and now we are going to discuss the upcoming second leg of the Champions League semi-final contest, don't forget... It is us who lead Valencia 2:1 instead of Valencia leading us 2:1. The past can only be used as a reference, but it can never change the result. It must be our Barcelona!"

Flores was naturally upset when he heard Rijkaard's words, so he said, "The past is indeed only a reference, but the past can allow us to find confidence, 3:2, 4:2, 1:2 and then 3:2 in the Copa del Rey. We just lost the most insignificant first-leg game, but we won two championships! And... Known as one of the best defenses in Europe, they let Ai score nine goals in these four games. I really don't know where their confidence comes from. , so I would like to ask... is Barcelona still confident that they can enter the Stade de France?"

Flores' words immediately caused an uproar. If Rijkaard was insinuating irony, then Flores' words were naked insults!

Amidst the cheers of the media supporting Valencia's promotion to the final, the local media in Catalonia protested loudly.

But at this time, who will stand up for them?

History...is written for the victors!

*****

After Huang Jianxiang and Liu Jianhong had dinner with the entire Valencia team at noon on the day of the game, they led the filming team to bid farewell to the Valencia players.

They also concluded a five-day follow-up interview.

Huang Jianxiang and Liu Jianhong also knew how important this Champions League semi-final second-leg contest was for both sides. Not only the players spat at each other, but even the head coaches of the two sides joined in.

They know that this may be the gap between Chinese and Western football cultures...

If the Chinese Super League can have this kind of atmosphere, why not worry about the league and the national team?

However, considering that the national team has degenerated from the level of a quasi-first-rate Asian team under Milu's coaching period to the current second-rate Asian team, if it continues like this, it is very likely to become a third-rate team in Asia.

For a superpower with a population of 13 billion, this is a great irony.

******

As the head coaches and players of both sides of the game became more and more gunpowder, the fans of both sides also started a big war of words, which evolved to a small-scale physical friction in the end, which almost led to a large-scale brawl in the end.

Fortunately, the local riot police in Valencia responded quickly and did not allow the incident to expand further.

Although the incident outside the stadium was brought under control, the fans of both sides in the stands did not restrain themselves. When the players on the field were warming up, the fans of both sides in the stands began to scold each other across the air.

If it weren't for the riot police to isolate the fans of both sides, it is estimated that it would not be impossible for the fans of both sides to fight.

The emotions of the fans on both sides seemed to be brought to the court.

This atmosphere also indirectly interfered with the players on both sides of the court.

Less than 5 minutes after the start of the game, the referee Italian Collina, who was in charge of the game, showed two yellow cards to both sides of the game, respectively to Edmilson and Aimar on the field, and Rijkaard and Flores off the field.

It can be seen that the gunpowder smell of this game is heavy.

Among them, Ai Luo is the biggest victim of this game, and the two yellow cards of Edmilson and Aimar and the two yellow cards of the coaches of the two sides are all because of him.

At that time, Ai Luo moved from the right to the middle to get the ball. Two consecutive false moves made Van Bommel unable to find the north. Finally, he passed Van Bommel with a very provocative crotch passing action, but it was not over. When he completely passed Van Bommel, he pulled the football back with his left foot.

Van Bommel didn't think so much at the time, he just wanted to make up for his defensive mistakes, so he quickly caught up, but what he didn't expect was that he was pierced again when he faced Aiello again.

It wasn't until this time that Van Bommel realized that the other party was deliberately teasing him!

But when he wanted to take revenge, Ai Luo had already run away, so he had to give up.

But Edmilson couldn't see it anymore, so he put a shovel directly from the side and rear, and shoveled Ai Luo to the ground.

At that time, if Ai Luo hadn't jumped up with a prediction in advance, it is estimated that his ankle would have to be scrapped.

Therefore, Edmilson's shovel from the side and rear also received a yellow card from Collina, and Aimar wanted to help Ai Luo get back to the field, but Collina gave him a yellow card to calm down.

The coaches of both sides off the field were also arguing because of Edmilson's tackle. After being reminded by the fourth official, Collina also ran to the sidelines and gave a yellow card warning to the coaches of both sides.

Collina's behavior of giving both sides a [-]-big board immediately became the target of attacks from all the fans in the audience.

UEFA President Johansson, who came to watch the game, also had to sweat secretly. Fortunately, Collina was the one to enforce the law. If the referee were changed, the players on both sides would probably not give up!

*****

The smell of gunpowder in the first 5 minutes gradually calmed down under Collina's strict penalty, and the emotions of both sides gradually calmed down.

Although there will still be a little movement during physical contact, they are very well controlled under Collina's preparation and penalty. As long as the movement is a little rough, he will stop blowing, pull the fouled player, and educate him.

In this way, the game slowly entered the normal track.

It's just that the fans in the stands still look at each other disliked, especially the fans from both sides who were separated by the riot police to watch the game, insulting each other is the most normal thing.

From another perspective, this game is very important to both teams. The last time the home team Valencia entered the Champions League final was five years ago, when they lost to Bayern Munich on penalties in the final.

And Barcelona is even more terrible. The last time they participated in the Champions League final was 11 years ago, and that final was also an unbearable memory for them.

At that time, the Barcelona dream team, which was known as the strongest ever, lost to AC Milan 4:0 at the Olympic Stadium in Athens.

So this game is even more important for Barcelona fans. Barcelona, ​​known as the second dream team, has become stronger and stronger under the leadership of World Footballer Ronaldinho.

At the same time, another semi-final was between AC Milan and Arsenal.

According to the strength of the two teams, AC Milan will most likely advance to the final, so this game has become a crucial existence. They are full of energy to avenge their revenge 11 years ago.

But to reach the final they also need to win their crucial semi-final second leg against Valencia.

Therefore, this game is extremely important for both sides.

Kicking out the smell of gunpowder is the most direct expression of the importance of this game.

PS: Congratulations on the birthday of Zhou Wei Children's Shoes, there will be three or four updates later, so stay tuned!
