ball at foot

After taking the lead in the first half, Liverpool scored another goal in the second half of the game.

This time, both Zhao Yaning and Figo withdrew to the midfield, and cooperated with Alonso for short passes.The continuous passing of the midfield forced Betis to press up, and then, Alonso found an opportunity, sent the ball directly behind the defense line with a long pass over the top, Milito turned offside successfully, and Liverpool scored again A goal.

After a game of 20, Liverpool also announced that they will definitely enter the Champions League knockout round as the first in the group.

The 13 points are enough to guarantee their entry into the Champions League knockout round, and now, what they need to do is to turn their heads and focus on the league games with all their strength.

And in this area of ​​the field, the points are still stalemate: Liverpool has two rounds less and is six points behind Chelsea. Both teams have a draw and a loss. [

And from now until mid-December, Liverpool need to go to Japan to play, and they need to play a total of four league games.And Liverpool's request is naturally to win all four league games: these days are rare good times for single-line battles, or they can take advantage of these days to accumulate more points.

In the next game against Manchester City, Liverpool finally deployed their strongest lineup in the league.

And in this game, Liverpool did not leave any chance for Manchester City.This game is no longer affected by the Champions League, and Liverpool put all their energy into the game.

And this match in the 14th round of the Premier League also has a very important meaning: this is the first time that Zhao Yaning has faced his national team teammates.

The meeting with the teammates of the national team, which was supposed to take place last season, has been delayed until now.Last season, Sun Jihe was injured and Li Gang was unable to play in the game. Zheng Zhi also went to Charlton this season, but that game happened to be the fourth round, and there is no make-up match now.

And this is the first time he has seen his national team teammates play for different Premier League clubs.

However, today's Manchester City is not as strong as before.

Last season, they were still an upper-middle team in the league, but after one season, their strength dropped sharply.They sold Anelka, Fowler, and Wright Phillips. In addition, after Sun Jihe came back, his strength declined greatly, from the main force to the substitute. Their strength can be said to be all the way. landslide.

And in this game, their midfielder Button was suspended again. Now on their court, the only star on their court, apart from Andy Cole in the frontcourt, is the goalkeeper David James. lngn

And in this game, James' performance once again told people: no matter where the club is, if you dare to hand over the task of guarding the gate to an England national team player, you will take a big risk.

Not long after the opening, Liverpool won an excellent chance.Milito and Zhao Yaning turned to the left and the other to the right, creating a gap in the back line. Gerrard, who got the opportunity, strode in and shot straight towards the goal.He hit the ball with the left foot, which is an extremely difficult position to save. Although James fell to the ground in time and pushed the ball out, he failed to push the ball away, but sent it directly to Zhao Yaning's feet.

Zhao Yaning had this kind of opportunity, of course he couldn’t do it with him, he just lobbed the ball and kicked the ball into the goal.

The goal was scored shortly after the opening, which naturally made the Liverpool players very happy.And it didn't take long for Liverpool to usher in a second chance: This time, after Zhao Yaning dribbled the ball and rushed up from the left, he wiped the bottom line and entered the penalty area. But he was kicked down by Manchester City's defender.

penalty.

This time, Milito stood on the penalty spot: Zhao Yaning practiced penalty kicks for a summer, and Milito is also practicing penalty kicks. Now, in the team’s training, the success rate of his penalty kicks is as high as It is better than Zhao Yaning.Therefore, in the current game, he is Liverpool's first penalty shooter, and this penalty opportunity is naturally his.

And in this game, he seized this opportunity very well.Ready, run, shoot!A penalty kick from Milito added another goal for Liverpool.

The lead of 20 obviously did not satisfy Liverpool.In the second half, the Liverpool team launched an attack again.This time, Robbie Fowler, who had just played, made a contribution.

In the opportunity of a corner kick attack, Fowler waved at Zhao Yaning from a far point to signal his request.After Zhao Yaning kicked the ball over, Fowler did not choose to shoot, but picked the ball to a closer point.The opponent's defender had a problem with his positioning when he got the ball, and this kick made Carragher, who was at the near post, directly score the bottom of the net with a header!

30! !Fowler hugged Carragher directly. Last year, he was still playing here, but in the summer, Manchester City used his poor level as an excuse to terminate his contract-although he returned to Liverpool. Le is very grateful, but for Manchester City, he still wants to take revenge. [

Although he failed to score a goal, it would be nice to have an assist.

After another victory, November also came to an end.And at this time, Zhao Yaning also needs to go to France, go there, and attend the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony——

"The winners of the European Ballon d'Or this time are... Zhao Yaning and Liverpool."

When these words were said, although Zhao Yaning warned himself not to show excessive joy on his face, he still couldn't help it. When he heard these words, a happy smile appeared on his face.

After all, this is the highest award in football.

"I'm very happy that I can get this award." When receiving the trophy from the editor-in-chief of "L'Equipe", Zhao Yaning still couldn't believe that he had won the award.When there were rumors of match-fixing some time ago, he thought that this award was destined not to be his own, "I don't know what to say, but I am very grateful to my friends, my relatives, and everyone who supports me. For a long time, you have given me all kinds of suggestions, reminders, and help to help me achieve today's results. I have been confused and lost. Because of other people's words, but also because of my own weakness And stupid. Because of my own mistakes, some people started to hate me. Because of my lack of ability, I didn't play perfect enough football and let a lot of people down. I'm not the best one, but I keep trying , I hope my fans like me, I hope my fans support me. For me, your support is more than everything!"

It's really not easy. If it weren't for the help of Adidas, I wouldn't have this opportunity, right?Looking at the trophy in his hand, Zhao Yaning sighed.After he actually got it, he felt that this thing was not as perfect as he imagined.He always thought that this thing was a symbol of honor, but now, facing the flashing spotlights around him, he suddenly felt that this thing was so heavy that it made him feel very tired to hold it in his hand.

The weight of this thing is more than football.With such a heavy thing in my heart, it's no wonder I can't play football well.

"Congratulations, the new Mr. Footballer." Ronaldinho stretched out his hand to him, his smiling face was still bright, without any sad expression.

"This Golden Globe Award might have been yours."

"I know, but what's the big deal? It's just a Golden Globe award. It's gone this year, and next year! Besides, you are a player from a small country after all. You can't win awards in big competition years. Only in these years, you can win awards." It’s possible to win an award, this is for you, there’s nothing wrong with it.” Ronaldinho laughed, “Compared with this, I prefer the media’s description of me: I’m the once-in-a-hundred-year football they say A genius, someone who brings joy to football, what is the Ballon d'Or compared to my praise?"

Looking at Ronaldinho, Zhao Yaning took a long time to confirm that what he said was completely true.This made Zhao Yaning instantly feel that his Golden Globe Award is nothing compared to a broad-minded star like Ronaldinho, what does his preoccupation look like?

What Mo Luo understood, Ronaldinho also understood, but I didn't understand it.Football skills and human mind should also grow together, but I am far behind.

"I am far behind you. You are the real outstanding player. With this mentality, I am far behind." Facing Ronaldinho, Zhao Yaning sincerely said.

"Joy, when you play football, your heart is too heavy. You are always worried that others will not like you, always worrying about gains and losses, and it is always not good. Playing football is for fun. If there is no fun, why do you play football? You used to I also understand this truth, when you were in Ligue [-], you played football for fun, why don’t you understand now that you are famous and earn a lot of money?”

"Maybe I'm confused." Zhao Yaning lowered his head, and after a long time, he smiled wryly, "I'm really, really, an idiot."

Thinking about what he did some time ago, Zhao Yaning didn't know what to say.He lost his heart and forgot why he played football, which almost made him doomed.

Looking at Ronaldinho with a smile on his face, Zhao Yaning didn't know what to say.Ronaldinho this year has almost conquered audiences throughout Europe with his own performance.However, the lack of excellent grades still became his flaw.

It is said that next year will be his coronation ceremony, but is it so easy to defend the World Cup? Didn't Ronaldo fall in front of the throne in 98?Can Ronaldinho really succeed?

However, whether he can succeed or not, hasn't he already succeeded?He successfully proved to the whole world his own strength, his own greatness, and his unparalleled.There can be many Mr. Footballers, but Ronaldinho can only have one.He is the only one who can make people all over the world cheer for the football media.And his happy football, his elf-like dance, and his joyful and broad mind, these things have already deeply affected me, more deeply than any footballer?

"I was so wrong."

I have always had a higher starting point than others.For me, the Ballon d'Or is something that is within reach, not something that should be pursued.My pursuit should not be awards or honors, but should be like Ronaldinho, enjoy the joy of football, experience the fun of football, and at the same time, try to make more people like football. [

That should be my biggest pursuit.
