Chapter 190: Champions League top 8

Remember [New] for a second,! On the second day of the Champions League match between the Madrid Pirates and Amsterdam Athletic, another "China Derby" in the Champions League ushered in the end.
Alvara to challenge Tramed.
Before this game, their situation was somewhat similar to Amsterdam Athletic. They also lost 2:3 in the first round and only lost one goal.
There is a chance and hope for a comeback on the road.
Xia Xiaoyu started this game, which is a sign of joy.
It means that his performance after the Champions League substitute appearance in the last round has won the favor and trust of the coaching staff.
In fact, after that Champions League match, Xia Xiaoyu made his start in the Portuguese Super League on the weekend, and continued his performance as a substitute in the Champions League.
He seemed to have rediscovered the feeling of playing behind the playmaker all of a sudden.
There was no stage fright when commanding players who were more famous than him.
But Alvara's overall strength is still not as good as Tramede. .
Although now Tramede has lost his dominance in the Premier League.
But the thin dead camel is bigger than the horse.
Even Tramede like this is not something that Alvara can shake.
So Tramed, who returned home, defeated Alvara 2-0 and advanced to the quarter-finals with a 5-2 aggregate score.
Luo Kai and Hu Lai together became Chinese players in the quarter-finals.
After the Champions League quarter-finals ended that night, the Champions League quarter-finals were released.
※※※
The King of Madrid beat Rotterdam Elite 3-1 away in the first leg, and won a neat 4-0 after returning home in the second leg.
They regained the top spot in La Liga, and they also showed strong dominance in the Champions League.
Coupled with the fact that the opponent's strength is not very strong, this score is also normal.
But in this hearty victory, Merry did not score.
The King of Madrid scored four goals, Meli didn't score a single goal, and the luck was a bit unfortunate...
He just contributed one assist.
In this way, he has only six goals in the Champions League scorer list, and Hu Lai, who has scored twelve goals, is getting farther and farther.
※※※
Stein Park Rangers, who drew 0:0 away from Ruhrlein in the first round, defeated their opponents 2:1 at home and advanced to the quarterfinals.
Ruhrlein's Janus Edelman scored a goal in the game, but failed to help the team reverse and win, and was unfortunately eliminated. But considering his age, he is only seventeen years old and has such ability, and his future achievements are limitless.
It is said that Edman has attracted the attention of other giant clubs in Europe, and the Ruhrlein Club is mulling a contract with an annual salary of 8 million euros after tax and a penalty of 200 million euros. This contract shows Ruhrlein's confidence in Edman's future.
If Edman nods to sign, he'll be the highest-paid and most valuable under-20 player.
※※※
Manchester Athletic, where Kabonka is located, defeated Sporting Bordeaux 3:0 away in the first round, won the game 4:2 in the second round, and finally advanced with a total score of 7:2.
Kabangka performed well, scoring two goals and assisting once in two rounds, and was the main contributor to Manchester Athletic's promotion to the quarter-finals.
But the better he performed, the more depressed Manchester Athletic Club and fans became.
Because Kabonca's agent, Igor Arauyo, has announced that his players will not be in any further negotiations with Manchester Athletic.
Kabangka, whose contract is about to expire on June 30 this year, has become a free agent. In fact, since January 1 this year, he can directly negotiate with other clubs, or even sign in advance. Manchester Athletic Club is completely out of control.
There have been rumors that Kabonca has signed an agreement with Catalan United in advance, and only waits for the contract to expire before free transfer to the La Liga giants.
Neither Kabonka nor his agent have acknowledged the rumor.
The Catalan club also denied it.
But everyone just believes that next season, Brazilian football super-genius Kendall Kabonca will be the No. 10 of the Catalan United.
But what if he can win the Champions League at Manchester Athletic this season?
Could this make him change his mind and stay at Manchester Athletic?
No one can say bad.
Manchester Athletic fans hope so, but Kabonka himself has never made a similar statement.
Because he failed to transfer to Catalan United last summer, he could only watch Hu Lai and Meli play hotly in La Liga. Kabangka was obviously very dissatisfied with Manchester Athletic Club's rejection of Catalan United.
He almost helped Manchester Athletic win all the honors except the Champions League, but when he found that staying in Manchester Athletic could not satisfy his ambition and wanted to pursue a higher level, he was held back by Manchester Athletic Club.
As an ambitious player, Kabonka certainly has reason to be unhappy with Manchester Athletic Club.
No matter how deep the feelings are, a lot will be lost at this time.

Although Paris Herger defeated Blue and White Munich 3:2 at home in the first round, the Bundesliga giants who returned to home also gave Paris Herger another 3:2.
The total score of the two rounds was 5:5, and after 30 minutes of overtime, the two teams still failed to score.
The game was dragged into a brutal penalty shootout. Both sides played five rounds. In the end, the Germans had the last laugh. Blue and white Munich eliminated the French giants Paris Herger with a score of 5:4 in the penalty shootout.
※※※
The unpopular came in the game between Valendia and Insubel.
In the first round, Valendia defeated Insubre 1:0 at home, which was a small upset.
At that time, many people felt that with Insubel's ability, it would not be a problem to return to the home court to make a comeback.
Insubre, who came back home, did win Valendia, but the score was 2:1…
This is embarrassing.
The total score was 2:2.
Insubre fans have to thank the current Champions League without the away goals rule, otherwise Valendia can directly eliminate Insubre by virtue of that away goal.
Where else do I need to continue to play overtime with Insubel...
In the extra time, the two sides made no further achievements. Like the duel between Paris Herger and Blue and White Munich, they were dragged into a penalty shootout.
As a result, after only three rounds of the five-round penalty shootout, Valendia won with a score of 3:1.
Valentia from La Liga eliminated the Serie A giant Insubel and reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League, which turned the small upset in the previous round into a big upset.
※※※
The last quarter-final is between Catalonia and Torino Bulls.
In the first round, the Turin Bulls defeated the Catalan United 2:1 at home. In the second round, the Catalan United failed to win the game at their own home. They fought with the Turin Bulls to a 1:1 draw.
Until the 85th minute of the game, Catalan were still leading 1-0.
If the score remains until the end, Catalan can drag the game into overtime.
As a result, in the 86th minute, the "old legend" Caesar of the Turin Bulls used a header to lore the Catalan United.
He helped the Turin Bulls to equalize the score, and the Turin Bulls also took the lead 3:2 on the total score.
In the last few minutes of the game, the Catalan United did everything to besiege the goal of the Turin Bulls, but failed to open the Italian team's goal.
The Turin Bull, who set up the bus, had the last laugh.

As a result, the Champions League quarter-finals have all been released, basically the five major leagues...or more precisely, the world of the four major leagues.
Among them, the King of Madrid, the Pirates of Madrid and Valentia represent La Liga.
Tramed, Stan Park Rangers and Manchester Athletic represent the Premier League.
The Bundesliga is represented by blue and white Munich.
The Turin Bulls are the only seed in Serie A.
La Liga and the Premier League have the most participating teams, which is basically in line with the status of these two national leagues in European football.
After the quarter-finals were released, the quarter-final draw was followed.
Unlike the draw for the quarter-finals, the rules of the draw this time are "no rules".
There is no restriction that teams from the same football association cannot meet, and there is no restriction that teams from the same group cannot meet, and there is no such mandatory requirement that the first of a certain group vs. the second of a certain group.
Eight teams were broken up and drawn against each other in a purely random fashion.
From the quarter-finals onwards, strong conversations can easily arise.
Or speaking of the Champions League quarter-finals, any encounter between two teams can be regarded as a "strong dialogue".
Except Valentia, of course.
The La Liga team that upset the Serie A giant Insubre was a "gift package" in the eyes of the other seven teams, and they all hoped that they could "jointly get married".
After a lottery, the lucky winner of this "big package" is the Madrid Pirates.
They were drawn with Valentia.
This made the Madrid Pirates fans and many Chinese fans cheer and celebrate, thinking that they had reached the Champions League semi-finals ahead of schedule. Chinese fans even claimed that the first Chinese player in history to participate in the Champions League semi-finals has been born - Hu Lai!
After the Madrid Pirates drew the only spree, the results of other teams' matches were also released.
The Kings of Madrid have drawn defending champions Blue and White Munich.
This is the contest between the top giants of La Liga and the top giants of the Bundesliga, and it is also the confrontation between the two teams that have won the most championships in the history of the Champions League. It is considered a "European derby".
The game was even called "an early Champions League final".
At the same time, the winner between their two teams will also be the opponents of the Madrid Pirates and Valentia in the Champions League semi-finals - that is, if the King of Madrid eliminates the Blue and White Munich, and the Madrid Pirates can Beat Valentia, then the two teams will stage a "Madrid derby" in the Champions League, UU read www. uukanshu.com And this is the first time in the history of the Champions League.
In the second half of the Manchester derby did not appear, Tramed's opponent is the Turin Bulls. Judging from the current strength and state of the two teams, Tramede may be more unfortunate, and Luo Kai is also more unfortunate.
The final quarter-final is the English Civil War: Stan Park Rangers v Manchester Athletic.
The two teams are also title rivals in the Premier League, and they can move their grievances in the league to the Champions League.
Stan Park Rangers, who are currently more than eight points behind Manchester Athletic in the league standings, may be able to get their revenge on the curve by knocking Manchester Athletic out of the Champions League.
The first Champions League quarter-final will be played on Tuesday, March 28.
The Champions League match between the Madrid Pirates and Valentia will be on Wednesday the 29th.
There are still ten days before the results of the draw are announced.
In these ten days, there will be three more rounds of La Liga.
Whether it is the European war or the domestic league, it has entered the final sprint stage.
