Chapter 459 Champions League quarter-final match

After Mirwall eliminated Real Madrid and advanced to the Champions League quarterfinals, the other quarterfinals of 16 knockout matches also ended one after another. The teams that were finally determined to advance were Chelsea, AC Milan, Eindhoven, Bayern Munich, Valencia, Manchester United, Mirwall and Sporting Lisbon.

Among the eliminated teams, there are three teams that are attracting attention: Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and Inter Milan.

The match between Barcelona and Manchester United has attracted worldwide attention and is also the focus of the top 16 matches.

The battle between the two teams also evolved into a showdown between new stars.

Manchester United's new star is C-Ronaldo. At the end of last season, C-Ronaldo almost left. Fortunately, Ferguson finally retained him. As a result, C-Ronaldo ushered in a big explosion this season, not only scored the most goals in the team, but also ranked second in the team in the team.

As a wing forward, this kind of game data has exceeded the category of ordinary stars, and Manchester United fans have labeled C-Ronaldo as a "future superstar".

Barcelona's new star is Messi.

Messi is a real football genius, but his teenage experience was also very difficult. At the age of eleven, Messi was diagnosed with a lack of developmental hormones, that is, dwarfism, which would hinder his bone growth and prevent him from growing taller. The family's financial conditions could not bear Messi's treatment costs.

Messi's dwarfism is not irresistible, but the monthly injection of growth hormone costs up to 900 US dollars. The old friend of Newell, the parent team, was unwilling to pay for a child with uncertain future. He once coveted Messi's Riverbed team. After learning about his chronic illness, he also gave up the idea of ​​"poaching".

In 2000, coach Kuka changed Messi's life. He took a fancy to Messi and believed that he would become a real star.

Messi was taken to Barcelona, ​​and Messi also moved his family to Spain.

In September 2000, Messi, who was only thirteen years old and only 140 years old, went to Barcelona youth training camp La Macia for trial.

During the trial, Messi's performance conquered the Barcelona youth team coaches, and they signed a work contract with Messi that will expire in 2012.

From then on, Messi embarked on the road of "flying".

Barcelona Club has made great efforts to help Messi grow. Since Messi's epiphyseal line has long been closed, club experts have specially formulated a series of leg sports for him to help Messi continue to grow. Messi has also continued to improve and grow in the Barcelona youth training camp. In just three years, he was promoted to the first team to participate in the competition.

Since then, Messi has been hovering between the youth team and the first team.

Messi is less than 20 years old this year and is already the "semi-main" of Barcelona's first team. Many players regard Messi as the main force and the top star, because many times, he replaces Ronaldinho.

The showdown between Manchester United and Barcelona is also a direct match between C-Ronaldo and Messi. Many people are concerned about who is more genius?

In the end no one got the answer.

When referee Vander blew the final whistle, Messi and his teammates walked out of the field in a lonely manner. Barcelona lost to Manchester United, and they were eliminated from the Champions League.

But Messi did not lose to C-Ronaldo.

During the game, Messi contributed an assist and helped the team score an away goal.

C-Ronaldo was closely guarded by Barcelona and did not perform on goals, but his personal performance put a lot of pressure on Barcelona's defense and helped his teammates attract enough defensive attention to Manchester United scored one more goal than Barcelona.

The reporters can only say that "C-Royce has richer experience." C-Ronaldo is two years older than Messi and competes in the professional league early on. After coming to Manchester United, he directly entered the first team and became the main player. He spent a longer time with Manchester United in the competition and had more games. Messi's advantage is younger. Messi's skills are amazing. His flexibility is rarely comparable to players. If he can have more experience in the game, the result may be different.

After this game, Europe was full of voices praising Messi and C-Ronaldo.

Listening to these voices, Zhang Yang couldn't help but sigh, "Big, Ronaldo, fans and other stars have become a thing of the past and have entered the era of Messi and C-Royce..."

Zhang Yang thought about his players and felt a little expectant, "Will other names be added to it in the future?" He is still optimistic about Branev. Branev has excellent dribbling ability, coupled with his comprehensive comprehensive quality, and his strength is definitely a superstar. With the support of Mirwall's lineup, he may perform better than Messi and C-Ronaldo?

In addition, what attracted attention were Real Madrid and Inter Milan.

There is nothing particularly easy to say about Real Madrid's defeat to Mirwall. Mirwall performed well and Real Madrid also made some mistakes in the game, which led to a big loss.

European media were just sorry and were surprised by Millwall's achievements.

Inter Milan lost to Sporting Lisbon, and the focus of the two teams is not before the game.

After Inter Milan was confirmed to be eliminated, their players seemed unwilling to fail. When they were about to come to an end, they had a conflict with Sporting Lisbon players, and the conflict quickly turned into a group fight.

Conflicts on the field were taken off the court.

Inter Milan's Burdiso clashed with Sporting Lisbon midfielder Nani, who kicked Nani with a flying kick, and then a large-scale conflict occurred.

Sporting Lisbon players rushed over and pushed Burdiso to the ground. Several Inter Milan players tried to chase Nani, but Nani quickly ran into the player's channel.

The two sides then escalated in the player channel, Inter Milan goalkeeper Toldo entered the dressing room of Sporting Lisbon, and several other Inter Milan players, including Portuguese star Figo, were also involved in the escalating melee.

The situation was not stopped until the security guards intervened.

This incident became the hottest news since the Champions League quarterfinals. Almost all sports media in Europe and even the world are reporting. UEFA immediately announced that it would impose global punishments on the players involved, which also means that Sporting Lisbon and Inter Milan will have several players who will not be able to participate in the remaining games of the season.

This is a major way of playing against both teams.

Not to mention the corresponding league, Sporting Lisbon also has to participate in the Champions League. They are originally the "fish bags" in the quarterfinals, and with the inability to play several players, it is equivalent to directly announcing a defeat in the quarterfinals.

The media also commented, "The next draw depends on which team is lucky to draw Sporting Lisbon."

———

The draw ceremony of the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League that night will be held in Athens, Greece. The entire ceremony was hosted by UEFA CEO Gianni Infantino.

UEFA sent Gianni Infantino, which shows the importance of drawing the Champions League quarterfinals.

This is because of the 'farce' in the draw of the top 16.

The female host at that time called Barcelona Inter Milan, and public opinion immediately pointed to the inside story of UEFA. Because the UEFA presidential election was about to be held, the matter ended up in the end.

But nothing can be covered up for a long time. The incident directly affected the reputation of former chairman Johnson. The presidential election held at the end of January, former French football superstar Platini, one of the candidates, took the initiative to provoke the war and attacked his opponent UEFA current chairman Johnson through the media.

The embarrassing time of the Champions League quarterfinals draw became Platini's trump card. He kept telling the media about things and said that after he was elected, he would make UEFA's things more transparent without causing doubts from the public.

In fact, it is difficult for Platini to get the support of the top European clubs in the G14 League. The major Western European football powerhouses, except for France, hope that Johnson can continue to be re-elected, because Platini is currently the representative of the reformist party in European football, advocates that economic interests should give way to the development of football, and hopes to support more countries where football is not very developed.

Platini emphasized, "At first, Johnson praised me as a reformer, but later he changed his tone and said that in his opinion my plan was useless. However, I will still stick to my own ideas and consider all aspects to determine where the sport of football should go. If we footballers do not take action at this moment, those politicians and businessmen will completely dominate the football field."

"I want to make it clear that even if I am elected, I will not have a revolution in European football."

In this way, Platini defeated Johnson in the election and served as the new chairman of UEFA.

New Chairman, new atmosphere.

After Platini came to power, almost all the officials involved in the "Champions League Top 16 Lottery Public Opinion Incident" were liquidated afterwards. Platini needed to reach a campaign promise and leave the outside world with the impression of "more transparent".

This Champions League quarterfinal draw is a good opportunity.

The draw of the Champions League quarterfinals was a small ceremony. Because the schedule was tight, each club only sent representatives to participate, but the draw ceremony was very transparent. During the live broadcast of the TV station, the venue also invited some local fans to testify, allowing three random fans to take turns to check the draw equipment and equipment.

After everything was fine, the lottery ceremony officially began.

Everyone believes that there will be no problem with the lottery draw, because Platini has just come on stage. If he tampers with the Champions League draw where something just happened, it will not only slap himself in the face, but his reputation will also quickly fall to the bottom. The smart Platini won't do this.

The Champions League quarterfinal draw abandoned the terms of avoiding the Football Association club, and the teams encountered in the group stage may also start a fierce battle again.

Under this principle, drawing lots becomes very simple and they are drawn soon after the match-

A1: AC Milan vs Bayern Munich;

A2: Chelsea vs. Valencia;

A3: Eindhoven vs. Mirwall;

A4: Sporting Lisbon vs. Manchester United.
