(third more)

Li Huan has been very busy in the past few days. After the training, he hurried home to help Gaoyuan Jundai find a house. It is really risky for Gaoyuan Jundai to live in Li Huan's house every day, although Jia Lei is much more familiar with London than Li Huan , but Li Huan couldn't ask her to help with this matter. Li Huan was not so thick-skinned yet, and Li Huan had quite a few friends in London, but none of them could help Li Huan with this matter.

On Sunday, Gaoyuan Jundai found a sale information from the newspaper, near Hyde Park, of course not No. 70 Hyde Park, although Li Huan can afford [-] pounds per square meter, but he does not want to be the focus of media attention, So I didn't buy it there.This is a small house with a price of more than [-] pounds. Gao Yuan Jundai found a job in an immigrant middle school in London. The house is not far from where Gao Yuan Jundai works. After Li Huan and Gao Yuan Jundai went to see it , I thought it was not bad, so I bought it under the name of Gaoyuan Jundai.

After setting up Gaoyuan Jundai, Li Huan took the time to visit Li Bing and his daughter Li Meng in Munich again. Li Meng, who has been three months old, looks so cute that Li Huan couldn't put it down, and even had the idea of ​​taking Li Bing to London at risk. In the end, Li Bing firmly disagreed, and Li Huan gave up.

Li Huan's performance these days and often receiving calls from women after training made Professor Wenger very uneasy, because recently, Terry's friends and wives have had too much trouble, which even affected Chelsea's results. Li Huan is more famous and attracts There are more women. There are rumors that Li Huan and the boss's daughter are still a little ambiguous. Wenger is worried that Li Huan will be affected by female sex. After all, Li Huan is 27 years old and has no fixed girlfriend. This is a hidden danger, so in normal communication, Professor Wenger often reminded Li Huan a few words, telling Li Huan to pay attention to Terry's lessons learned.

Li Huan pretended not to understand. He is single. As long as he doesn't go whoring and taking drugs, the media can't do anything about him. He even wants to remind his coach to be careful. As a time traveler, Li Huan knows that Professor Wenger He is not as serious and elegant as he looks, and he also has a lover who is 20 years younger than him.However, Li Huan still resisted his impulse. With Wenger's character, if he really said it, Li Huan could not imagine what kind of reaction the professor would have.However, Li Huan restrained himself a little, and tried not to return to Munich, but urged Shen Yu to open a fashion branch in London as soon as possible, so that he could see his daughter often.

Although Li Huan puts a lot of energy into dealing with family chores, he did not take it lightly when preparing for the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals in Porto. Li Huan understood when he played against Portuguese and Spanish teams in the Bundesliga that Latin football is not easy to play. , Even if it is a not-so-famous underdog, their technical level will not be worse than that of the giants in the Bundesliga and Premier League.If Arsenal are careless and don't take it seriously, they might stumble.

Even though Arsenal are extremely strong in the Premier League and Champions League group stage, the British media is still full of worries about Arsenal's trip to Portugal. Arsenal and Porto have fought 4 times in the Champions League. Arsenal has 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss Slightly dominant.The Gunners maintained a complete victory against Porto at home, but Porto also remained unbeaten against Arsenal at home.In addition, before Manchester United won a small 1-0 away game last season, Porto maintained a 41-year home unbeaten record against the Premier League. This record fully shows that Porto is not afraid of the Premier League team.

In addition, from the perspective of status, Arsenal remained unbeaten in the Premier League this season, but the No. 1 goalkeeper Almunia suddenly found a chest infection and was unable to participate in the game, and the back injury of central defender Gallas finally made him unable to support , can only go to the hospital for treatment.As for Porto, they drew 0-0 away with Rexos in the Portuguese Super League last Saturday. The unbeaten game has been extended to 12 games. What makes Arsenal a little tricky is that France just transferred from River Plate this summer. Ercao performed amazingly. The Colombian international scored 26 goals in 20 games and is a prolific striker.Forward Hulk, whose liquidated damages amounted to 12 million yuan, recovered from his injury in December last year and has been able to play at least one game. This is also a threat to Arsenal.

Arsenal coach Wenger also believes that Porto is a difficult opponent. "It's a difficult matchup. Porto don't seem like a prestigious team, but every year they get to the knockout rounds, surprise everyone else, they've been playing really well lately. If they lose to Liverpool, then again. It is too difficult to play Porto away. Although we are missing Almunia and Gallas, we are very confident that Fabianski and Campbell can replace them. Arsenal is still confident of reaching the top 8 .”

Porto coach Ferreira has been in charge of Porto since 06. He has led the team to win the Portuguese Super League for three consecutive years, and entered the top 4 of the Champions League for the fourth consecutive year.He expressed a cautious view on this game, "Arsenal can give us a lot of trouble. When they play well, they are very difficult to beat. I don't feel any pressure. We need to control the game and do it. When you get there, you have to control your emotions. Arsenal are the best team in the world, but they are only human. The Dragon Stadium will be our greatest motivation and confidence. , we can't control the excitement of the fans, we know their joy is realistic. What we have to do is to control the game. On the day of the game, I don't want to hear the voices of the British fans. Let our fans feel that we are all Commitment is important and we want them to support us."

The left back who will fight against Li Huan, Uruguay international Pereira challenged Li Huan before the game, "Li Huan is nothing special. In my opinion, Li Huan is like all other players. I will be careful and concentrate on it. , I have confidence in my ability, I will not change my style of play. I will focus on the same as facing other games, and will not give him a chance."

Porto midfielder Meirelles also tried to irritate Li Huan, "Li Huan may be the number one star in the world now, but he needs to prove why he is the best in the world at Arsenal. We will play a great game and try to let They can't prove themselves."

Porto goalkeeper Ayrton has predicted a nervous Arsenal will fail in Portugal because they cannot withstand the pressure. "The pressure is on Arsenal because they're a big club, big favorites to win the Champions League and it would be a big surprise if they don't get through. So they might be nervous about it, if we make sure we don't settle Arsenal and play them The usual style, then we have a good chance of qualifying. Our stadium, our fans and the atmosphere will be so important and with those behind us we can create more chances to win. Earn more respect."

Faced with Porto's provocation, Captain Fabregas hoped that his teammates would not be fooled. He said: "The opponent wants to provoke us, but we cannot be fooled. We must calm down so that we can play our style. Calmness is very important for shooting. Only Calmness improves the efficiency of the shot. Porto is a good team and the Dragon Stadium is scary, but we are there to win and we are confident that we can do it, because we are the best team in the world."

Li Huan was not irritated by Porto's provocation. Li Huan was very patient. He understood why his opponent wanted to irritate him. The game is famous all over the world. Of course, that is when they win. If they lose, he will become a passer-by and a walk-on like other teams who lost to us, so they try their best to send out Their voice. It's a pity that so few teams have failed us this season."

In a war of words between the two teams, testing each other's reactions, UEFA's referee committee announced the [-]-year-old Swede Martin.Hansen will officiate the first leg of the quarter-final between Arsenal and Porto.This news once liberated Porto and Arsenal from the war of words, because they had a common goal-Swede Martin.Hansen.

Hansen is a firefighter in his life. On the field, he saved a "fire" for UEFA President Michel Platini's home country France-in the South African World Cup play-off match between France and Ireland. Henry turned a blind eye to the assists offered by his hands and sent France to the World Cup finals.

The Porto people are a little dissatisfied with this. They suspect that the Hansen referee has a tendency to be pro-French. Wenger is French and may take advantage of the game. At the same time, the Portuguese also think that a Swede is not good for Porto. Because of the similarities in physical play between Swedish and English football, Porto, who play Latin, may become passive as a result.

But Arsenal is also dissatisfied. Wenger believes that such a fatuous referee will find it difficult to enforce a match at the Olympic level. Arsenal are stronger than Porto. As long as the referee is fair, they will be able to beat Porto and enter the quarterfinals. A low-level faint call will change the game.

However, it is useless for the two clubs to complain, they cannot change UEFA's meaning, they can only accept such an arrangement.

The match between Porto and Arsenal was played on the second match day, and the two games played on the first match day were Manchester United against AC Milan and Lyon against Real Madrid.Both games are battles of revenge.Especially Manchester United vs AC Milan is the focus of the world's attention.As a result, Manchester United succeeded in revenge, knocking down the old guys in the nursing home with three punches in the fashion capital of Milan.However, the star-studded galaxy battleship Real Madrid had no choice but to win their bitter master Lyon, losing 0:1 away.These two games reminded Arsenal that their strength is not the sum of their lineups, and they need to work hard to win against Porto.
