Capítulo 228: 35 Countdown to Leon’s Comeback
35 Countdown to Leon's Comeback
In December, the weather in the whole of Europe began to turn cold. After a draw with Lyon in the away game, Bayern also entered the top sixteen of the Champions League in the 2003-04 season with the first place in the UEFA Champions League group stage. The UEFA Champions League knockout round is quite different from last year. After entering the round of 16, the teams no longer play in the group stage, but go directly to the knockout round. This kind of direct fight will be more exciting, hotter and easier to upset. //
Like the previous life, Porto, led by Leon's "junior brother" Mourinho, entered the top 16 in an underestimation. A few days after the end of the Champions League knockout round, "French Football" also announced the 2003 European Golden Ball The winner of the award, the award was awarded to Zidane who played for Real Madrid. It is worth mentioning that Leon was selected into the top three and finally ranked third.
In the selection of the World Footballer of the Year, Zidane, Ronaldo, and Leon were shortlisted for the final competition. This is a kind of affirmation of Leon's strength by the world football and European media, and also for everything he has done in Bayern. sure.
Bayern's ball control system has also been studied and imitated by many teams.
The Bundesliga has now played 16 rounds, and Bayern has 13 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss at the top of the list. They are 11 points ahead of the second-ranked Werder Bremen. This advantage can ensure that Bayern can concentrate on the Champions League in the second half of the season. , they have enough capital in the domestic league for them to squander.
The draw ceremony for the UEFA Champions League knockout round was also held in Zurich, Switzerland the day after the Ballon d'Or selection. This time, the top 16 teams accounted for three Premier League seats, namely Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea, while only Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga. Munich and Stuttgart, La Liga, the four top four all advanced, they are Real Madrid, Celta, Real Sociedad, Deportivo, Ligue 1 has Lyon and Monaco, Serie A has AC Milan, Juventus, Portugal Porto, Lokomotiv Moscow in Russia and Sparta Prague in the Czech Republic.
The elimination of quasi-strong teams such as Serie A giants Inter Milan, Blue Eagles Lazio, Eredivisie duo Ajax, and PSV Eindhoven has taken the lead in killing a group of competitors for Bayern.
After the draw for the round of 16, Leon can be sure that this season is Bayern's best chance to win the St. Blair Cup. Porto will be drawn by Manchester United, while Bayern will be drawn by Real Madrid.
"Manchester United was the first to be eliminated by Porto in the last sixteen of this season. The last glory of Super Depor allowed them to eliminate Juventus in the last sixteen, and then returned to home after losing 1 to 4 to AC Milan in the quarterfinals. Reversal... Therefore, both Serie A heroes will be killed by Deportivo, and the quarter-finals, the Premier League civil war leaves only one Premier League team, Chelsea... As long as we beat Real Madrid, our future will be wide open!" Ten After the draw ceremony for the top six, Leon analyzed based on the memory of his previous life.
Because of the weirdness of this season in the previous life, Leon remembers this season's Champions League very clearly. After deporting the Serie A duo in a row, they have been upset all the way. They will solve two or three giants for Bayern, and Porto will also do the same. Killing the two giants, coupled with the wear-and-tear of the Premier League civil war...then the real problem for Bayern now is how to ensure that Real Madrid can enter the quarter-finals in the two wars, because Bayern does not have Lionwell and coach Heathfield.
However, Leon is full of confidence. Although he will miss the match against Zidane, this Galacticos is not the Galacticos of last year. They are very strong, but only on the surface.
Makelele's departure, Queiroz's uselessness, Cambiasso's lack of trust...Real Madrid's waist has not been hardened, and in La Liga, with Ronaldinho and Eto'o, two black winds and two evil spirits began to lead With the recovery of Barcelona from the ruins of the dynasty, Real Madrid is facing great domestic competitive pressure.
Benitez's Valencia began to counterattack all the way. They have won one victory after another steadily. If there is no accident, this season's La Liga champion will belong to Benitez's Valencia, while Barcelona will be second and defend the title. Champions Real Madrid are third.
Zidane's grasp of Real Madrid's offense is indeed unique, but Real Madrid's defense cannot guarantee that Real Madrid's superstars can play stably after pressing forward.
Pavon, who is full of loopholes, is almost about to lose his confidence. If it weren't for the existence of the hero Elguera... This Real Madrid team is really much weaker than last year's team.
Is there Real Madrid of Makelele? It's two real Madrids in concept. And Del Bosque is not there. There is no one to suppress the superstars of Real Madrid. With the arrival of Beckham, Beckham kicking the midfielder is really painful, at least for now It seems that Beckham is not fully familiar with this position.
"Okay, guys, how did you get Real Madrid to look like a pig's liver? Don't forget, we won them at home last year. They only overwhelmed us by scoring more away goals. I will not be in the two games, but you must believe in your progress! We will step on the shoulders of the Real Madrid superstars and enter the quarterfinals! I am waiting for your good news in the quarterfinals." Leon also said on the training ground Encourage teammates.
"That's right, Real Madrid is the top pick. Look at their defense in La Liga. I believe that with your hard work in the past half a season, we will definitely enter the quarter-finals." Iron coach Heathfield is also full of confidence.
This confidence comes from the now strong Bayern.
With the rapid growth of Deisler, Schweinsteiger and other young people, coupled with the tactics ahead of this era, the current Bayern team is much stronger than last year's team, and it is also much stronger than the previous Bayern team. Reasons to fear Real Madrid.
Figo's state has begun to decline, and Ronaldo's state cannot be compared with that of the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup. Compared with Real Madrid, Bayern is improving, while Real Madrid is regressing.
For the match between Bayern and Real Madrid, many German media also played slogans of a battle of revenge, because Bayern was eliminated by Real Madrid last year, so many Bayern fans also hope that Bayern can defeat Real Madrid and enter the top sixteen.
The draw ceremony and the results of the draw have come to an end. After all, the match against Real Madrid will take place in February next year. In the Bundesliga, after defeating Stuttgart, which also entered the top 16, Bayern, which has already secured the Bundesliga half-time championship, has also created Bundesliga semi-championship record for highest points...
In the eyes of many German fans, UEFA's suspension of Leon has caused Leon to kill in the Bundesliga. So far this season, Bayern has scored 48 goals in the 17th round of the Bundesliga. In all competitions, despite his absence, he has scored eleven goals (fourth in the top scorer list) and provided fourteen assists.
Only halfway through the season, Leon has already completed a double-double. He is currently the second scorer in the team. Apart from Roy Mackay who scored 15 goals, Leon is even better than Pizarro who scored 10 goals. Scored an extra goal...
And Leon, Pizarro, and Ma Kai arranged most of Bayern's goals, and as a defensive midfielder, being able to score so many goals made the entire Bundesliga feel terrified...
Leon's running this season is more terrifying than last season, and with the improvement of physical confrontation, opponents have fewer and fewer ways to deal with him.
Throughout the match against Bayern, almost all teams adopted the same method, that is, to stabilize their midfield and look for opportunities to counterattack. Bayern, which is already invincible in the league, has enough confidence to face it in February next year. real Madrid...
After defeating Stuttgart, all 18 teams in the Bundesliga also ushered in a long winter break in the Bundesliga. They have a month to adjust and rest. Many fans and experts believe that the reason why the German team can compete internationally A big reason for the impressive results in the competition is because of the winter break of the Bundesliga.
The Bundesliga should be regarded as one of the most reasonable leagues in the world. The league structure is reasonable, and the operating conditions between the teams are also good. At least when have you ever seen a Bundesliga team go bankrupt because it costs too much to buy players?
Germans, who always plan for the future, are never stingy when it comes to spending money, but they only spend what they need to spend.
After finishing half of the Bundesliga season, Leon also flew back to Argentina. He will spend Christmas in Argentina, and then he will report to the Argentine national team in January. In order to prepare for next year's Copa America and the Olympics, Leon will use The captaincy led Argentina to a friendly against England at Manchester's Old Trafford on the international break in January.
After that, Leon will return to Bayern and prepare for the second half of the league with Bayern.
"Okay, my buddy, I wish you a Merry Christmas." Before Leon returned to Argentina, his agent Mendes also came to send him on the plane.
Leon smiled, then he looked at Mendes, and he handed a list to Mendes, "I know you have a lot of doubts and questions about me, but my big manager, the above The players here are absolutely one-in-a-million talents, go and sign them early."
Mendes took the list, glanced at it and put it away. He did have many questions and questions about Leon, but Mendes never asked Leon why...
This is also a kind of tacit understanding, no one has a little secret.
"Aren't you afraid that I will be too famous to oppress you in the future, my employer." Mendes asked jokingly.
Leon shook his head: "Of course I'm not afraid, because you, like me, have a bottom line in everything you do, and if you can squeeze me, why did you give me such an expensive sports car?"
Mendes smiled and didn't talk. The relationship between him and Leon is not just that between an agent and a player. They are comrades who fought together, from the very beginning.
