Chapter 500: The first encounter with Real Madrid

The UEFA Champions League semi-finals between Arsenal and Real Madrid came as scheduled. Before the game, the media hyped up some data, such as how many times Real Madrid and Arsenal have met in history, how many wins, draws and losses.Then there is the number of wins, draws and losses between Real Madrid's head star Cristiano Ronaldo and Arsenal, and then the statistics of Gareth Bale's encounter with Arsenal in the Premier League, and finally Real Madrid's encounter with the Premier League Team stats, and Arsenal's stats against La Liga sides
All in all, in Li Zihan's words, the "eighteen generations of ancestors" have been read over and over by those reporters.

Li Zihan, who attended the pre-match press conference with Wenger, faced the reporter's question and said: "Is the encounter between Arsenal and Real Madrid the upper hand? Sorry, I am not interested in those old calendars. Interested in what?" Nonsense, of course I am interested in entering the finals."

Afterwards, Li Zihan's words were misinterpreted by various distortions.
"Arsenal striker Lee says Arsenal can easily beat Real Madrid to reach final"

"Lee thinks that Real Madrid is nothing more than that, and Arsenal must win in the end."

"Lee is salivating at the Champions League, and Real Madrid's tenth Champions League will be retired later"

"Real Madrid failed to unswervingly introduce Li during the transfer period last summer, so Li intends to use this game to let Real Madrid see his ability."

"Li: Joining Real Madrid? I'm not interested in that, what are I interested in? Nonsense, of course it is to beat Real Madrid and enter the Champions League final."

In this way, there was some unhappiness between Li Zihan passively and Real Madrid.

Although he has already experienced the lack of integrity and unlimited spirit of Tiantian, every time such a thing happens to him, Li Zihan still feels quite pained.

And this also made the fans of Real Madrid very unhappy. As one of the noble clubs, the fans of Real Madrid also have their own pride.So when I saw a lot of media saying that Li Zihan wanted to beat Real Madrid in order to "humiliate" that he didn't choose his own decision but chose the Welshman Gareth Bale!

The fans of Real Madrid didn't know what Li Zihan was talking about, but they naturally had a preconceived idea when they saw so many media saying so.

"He still wants to join our Real Madrid?? What else can he do besides running fast and scoring more goals? Oh, yes, he can also sell jerseys." When interviewed by the British media, the Real Madrid The fans said so.

It's just that he didn't notice that his words made many forwards feel ashamed.Can score goals, score a lot of goals, and have a broad business path. Isn't this already a very good striker?

Fans in England began to complain: It really is the arrogant Real Madrid, such conditions are not enough to join them.
After seeing the media reports, Susan was somewhat dissatisfied with Li Zihan's answer. Now that she has become a qualified agent, Susan obviously understands what players should and should not say when facing the media here, and Consider whether what you said will be misinterpreted or embellished by the media.
However, she thought that Li Zihan was in such trouble now, but Li Zihan didn't care about it. He told Susan that he really had no plans to go to Real Madrid now anyway, and even if he knelt down and begged for mercy, Real Madrid wouldn't mind it. Will deliberately put water on them to win.Besides, even if you have plans to join Real Madrid in the future, as long as your "capital" is strong, are you afraid that you won't be able to attract the "big pervert" of Real Madrid?
Even Figo was recruited by Real Madrid to their arch-enemy Barcelona.

Susan rolled her eyes and said nothing, anyway, she knew that Li Zihan was not as mature as he should be at his age.

In Arsenal, there is not only a story between Li Zihan and Real Madrid.The story between the core midfielder Ozil and Real Madrid can also be told for three days and three nights.

Ozil became famous when he was young. Although he came from the excellent youth training system of Schalke [-], he really started to shine in the famous Werder Bremen!
Then the 21-year-old Ozil joined the giants Real Madrid. Although he quickly became the core midfielder of this century-old world-class giants, in the three seasons of Real Madrid, he assisted 74 times and scored 34 goals. A pretty powerful stat.

From 21 to 24 years old, Ozil gave Real Madrid his most beautiful youth.But this season, with the arrival of Gareth Bale and Isco, his position in the team has become less secure.The new coach Ancelotti has a dispensable attitude towards him, and Florentino also spent a huge amount of money to acquire Bell, so he had to rely on selling players to relieve financial pressure.

Ever since, Ozil became a victim.

This game was also hyped by the media as Ozil's revenge battle! !

But in an interview with the media before the game, Jinyuyan said: "There is no conflict between me and Real Madrid. I have played there for three years, and I really hope there. And there are still many of my friends in the Real Madrid team." Good friends, so we are not the relationship you (media) think. When I learned that Real Madrid didn't need me very much, and I really wanted to change to a new environment and try some new challenges, so I joined Arsenal. That's it, very simple. I respect Real Madrid, but I'm an Arsenal player and as a professional I will do everything I can to help my team win.

The reporters curled their lips, saying that Ozil is not cute at all, and they don't know how to cooperate.
In this way, the lively Champions League semi-final between Arsenal and Real Madrid came.

Arsenal sits at home, the main force is out, Li Zihan and Ozil, who have been rested, both played.

On Real Madrid's side, Ancelotti also ranked his strongest lineup.Real Madrid's "BBC" offensive combination of Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale in the frontcourt is naturally the starter.There are also teenager Isco and Croatian midfielder Modric and Ozil's German friend Khedira.

Real Madrid's midfield soul Xavi Alonso did not enter the 18-man squad due to injury, but he still came to the away game at the Emirates Stadium to cheer for his teammates and the team.

At the beginning of the game, Real Madrid took control of the ball and began to attack Arsenal's defense desperately. It didn't feel like a guest at all, but it was like being in their own Bernabéu stadium.

Arsenal can only passively defend helplessly, and then wait for the opportunity to counterattack.

Cristiano Ronaldo is a very strong person. He holds most of Real Madrid's possessions. Of course, his ability also makes people feel very strong.

After breaking into the penalty area, the Portuguese did not have a good angle, but he still chose to hit the goal strongly.The ball flew directly towards the goal. Fortunately, Szczesny was well prepared and hugged it directly.

Then the hosts of various TV media began to applaud Cristiano Ronaldo, saying that this is a top star who often creates opportunities when there is no chance. There are still many gaps between the superstars.

Two minutes later, Li Zihan's wonderful solo performance made the commentators feel hot on their faces.

After withstood the initial pressure of Real Madrid, Arsenal looked for a chance to attack.

When Ramsey made a long pass over the top, Li Zihan started to run and came to the general position of the ball. Instead of catching the ball, he protected his body and passed the ball.

Then he quickly turned around and rushed from Modric's side to the opponent's back to receive the ball. Then he took the ball in a big stride, and then walked around the sideline to bypass the German midfielder Khedira's defensive area.

Carvajal on the wing is a little nervous. Although he has secured the main force of Real Madrid's full-backs this season at a young age, he still doesn't have much experience in big games like the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Li Zihan easily fooled Carvajal with a false pass, and then dribbled the ball past him.

Then rushed along the sideline, watching Ozil, who was outflanking in the middle, couldn't keep up with him.Li Zihan gave up the idea of ​​making a pass from the bottom, and he directly took the ball and cut inside.

Seeing that there was no defensive barrier on the wing, Real Madrid's central defender Pepe came over to make up for it.

Li Zihan knows Pepe, the Portuguese can shine his own brilliance even in a club like Real Madrid where the stars come and go.

Looking at the opponent's fierce eyes and expression, Li Zihan thought that this expression would be able to defend the average player without him doing anything.

But Li Zihan is not an ordinary player. He made a fake move of waving the ball and going outside to force Pepe.Then he pulled the ball back, and then passed the inverted triangle back to Ozil in the middle.

Li Zihan's passing is very sophisticated. He once learned some passing knowledge from Ozil. The ball successfully avoided Pepe's outstretched foot and accurately landed on Ozil's running line.

Ozil did not take the ball directly, but took advantage of the situation and directly inserted the ball into the penalty area.

Li Zihan had also bypassed Pepe at this time, and then successfully entered the penalty area.

"Arsenal's chance, the tacit cooperation between Ozil and Li Zihan, through balls!! Li Zihan!!! Hit the goal!! Real Madrid is in danger!!"
