Chapter 498 Fighting the Champions League Again
The last time Liu Han came to Rome, he turned around and left within 24 hours. The behavior of the Arsenal club made Liu Han feel dissatisfied. After the dialogue with Wenger, Liu Han left the city of Rome directly, and now he came to Rome again .The difference is that this time Liu Han is a player of Real Madrid, but the opponent is still Lazio.

Lazio was in a group with Arsenal in the first group stage of the Champions League. They failed to beat the Arsenal team that lost Liu Han in the group stage, but in the end they successfully advanced to the second stage as the second group group matches.

This season's Lazio team can be said to be in the limelight in Serie A. At the beginning of the season, they used 500 million US dollars to introduce Argentine striker Crespo. After the news broke, it still caused a great sensation all over the world, and the current Lazio team holds high the banner of offense. It can be said to be unique in Serie A where defense prevails, which also makes many fans like this team very much. Teams wearing blue jerseys.

"Hey man, when did you learn the way I kick free-kicks? It was because I grew taller and learned to use my right foot."

Although the incident caused by Liu Han in Brazil caused turmoil in the Brazilian political arena, Carlos, who is a Brazilian, did not take it seriously. He got along well with Liu Han and often played free kick games and races with Liu Han in daily training After the game, after coming to Rome, he and Liu Han lived in the same room. Carlos was very curious about the way Liu Han would take his free kick.

"Oh, it must have been when I first arrived in London. At that time, I often watched some game highlights. At that time, I felt that your way of playing football was very different, so I tried to learn it. To be honest, I was also attracted by you at that time. The skill of kicking free kicks is scary, I have never seen such a wide arc of free kicks, especially the ball in the Confederations Cup in [-], the eyes of the French bald man (Batez) on the opposite side almost made me laugh."

Liu Han is working hard to learn Spanish, and there is almost no difference between Portuguese and Spanish, so communicating with Carlos can connect his pronunciation, but Liu Han can still express in English when speaking some unfamiliar words, fortunately Carlos's English is not bad, and it did not cause obstacles to the communication between the two.

"Haha, thank you for your compliment, can you tell me more about Rio? I'm curious, I remember playing in the Santa Mata slums when I was young, and the guys there let the little ones The children helped to deliver the 'goods', a good friend of mine was beaten to death inside, and those scumbags inside should go to hell."

Speaking of things in Brazil, Carlos has a bad image of the slums in Rio. He lived in Rio for a while and was born in a poor family. He is very disgusted with the behavior of some gangsters who mutilate children.

"I went to rescue my girlfriend at the time, and I'm not very familiar with the situation inside, but I regret it a little after hearing what you said, maybe I should have acted harder at that time."

"Dude, you were already good enough at that time, and you rescued seventeen hostages, much better than in the movie, haha, maybe a big Hollywood director will ask you to make a movie in the future, and you must remember to take me with you when the time comes, I'll be your assistant, haha."

"Well, I think your image is more like a gangster boss, maybe you can be the anti-number one, haha."

Although the game is approaching, Real Madrid players don't care too much about this game. Lazio is indeed in the limelight in Serie A, but they are not considered a wealthy team in the entire European football world.

On February 2001, 2, the second stage of the UEFA Champions League group stage officially started. Real Madrid was a guest at the Olympic Stadium in Rome and played away against "Blue Eagle" Lazio.

In this game, Bosque still sent a three-forward lineup. With the deepening of training, Liu Han gradually integrated into the team's system, and his cooperation with Raul and Morientes became more and more tacit. Si can change positions appropriately. He sits on the central axis and feeds the ball to his teammates. Liu Han has played most of the positions on the field. He is much better than Morientes in how to pass the ball.

But just when everyone was expecting an offensive battle to start at the Olympic Stadium in Rome, the new head coach of the Lazio team, Zoff, sent a team with a defensive formation. What about the formation of 532? It doesn't look like he is going to confront Real Madrid.

At the beginning of the game, the Lazio team stayed at halftime, and the defense with Nesta as the core completely turned the team's penalty area into a jungle of human flesh. Liu Han encountered two defenders on the right wing. , and Morientes was also firmly stuck by Nestor, and Real Madrid's offense came to a standstill.

Gradually, Real Madrid, unable to open up the situation, began to press consciously, and Carlos also frequently stepped forward to assist, but the Lazio team, which used to play offense, actually defended very decently, making Real Madrid's offense have no clue.

In the 26 minutes of the game, the scene was very slow, and the rhythm of the whole game seemed to be in a quagmire. Instead, Lazio took advantage of Real Madrid's pressure and started to counterattack. Crespo, who only scored four goals in the first half of the season, played this game. Suddenly awakened, using a counterattack opportunity to successfully reverse offside, helping Lazio score a goal, Real Madrid fell into a complete passivity.

At this time, the sky began to rain lightly. The cold rain mixed with the cold wind in February caused the players' condition to decline rapidly, but the Lazio team, which was playing at home, played more and more courageously.

At the end of the first half of the game, Lazio scored another goal, and Crespo scored a header in the penalty area to break through Real Madrid's goal again. The Argentine striker finally had a performance in line with his worth.

At the end of halftime, the Real Madrid players returned to the locker room exhausted by the cold rain. The two-to-zero performance really made everyone unable to lift their heads.

"Change your clothes first, wipe your body clean, don't catch a cold."

Back in the locker room, Bosque actually asked the players to change out of their wet clothes first, but his behavior made the players feel a little warm. This is the most outstanding point of him as a head coach, that is, he always thinks about the players Body.

"In the second half, the opponent is expected to defend. What do you think about the second half of the game, gentlemen?"

"We shouldn't continue to attack. The opponent will continue to fight back. We need to mobilize the opponent's defense." As the captain, Hierro first expressed his opinion, but Figo, the core of the team's frontcourt, was in the last game. Injured, he didn't come to Rome at all in this game.

"Coach, I can drop back to the midfielder position. I have played as an organizer at Arsenal and can organize the team's offense."

Liu Han, who was already familiar with the atmosphere in the Real Madrid team, stepped forward at this time. He felt that he had to do something.

"Well, this is a good suggestion. In the second half, Liu you return to the midfielder position, and the players on the side can retreat appropriately. The opponent's counterattack is very fast today."

Bosque did not reject Liu Han's proposal, and he also felt that it was necessary for Liu Han to come to the front midfielder to organize the team's offense.
