long live the king

Franck Ribery took advantage of the change of direction in the continuous high-speed dribbling and passed two Saint-Etienne players, then passed the ball to Zhang Yang who had raised his hand for the ball.

Zhang Yang took the ball and turned around, and the next second he saw the face of Saint-Etienne's midfielder Brison.

This even startled him, he didn't expect Brison to defend himself so tightly, not giving himself a chance to breathe.

Brison paid great attention to marking Zhang Yang. When he saw Zhang Yang receiving the pass from Ribery, he immediately pushed up. He waited for the moment Zhang Yang received the ball and turned his body, and he decisively intercepted the ball.

Zhang Yang was surprised that Brison's attack was so fast, but his feet were unambiguous and made wonderful moves.

He flicked his feet nimbly, and then jumped, just in time to dribble past Brison's interception.All these actions were completely subconscious, and Zhang Yang had practiced countless times in the dungeon.So much so that after Zhang Yang found out that he had passed Brison, he felt an uncontrollable ecstasy in his heart.

Immediately after Zhang Yang moved the ball forward, he took two steps faster.

Another Saint-Etienne defender came up to cover the interception.

Zhang Yang didn't continue to dribble the ball, but suddenly swung his right foot and took a long shot!The Saint-Etienne player thought he would continue to dribble the ball, so he didn't dare to jump forward too much, for fear of being accelerated by him. On the contrary, this gave Zhang Yang the space and opportunity to take a long-range shot!

※※※※※※※※※※

Long shot!

The football flew straight to the goal like a fired shell!

Saint-Etienne goalkeeper Viviani was still loudly commanding the defense just now, telling the players to break through or score the ball carefully, but Zhang Yang suddenly shot from a long distance!

He was completely unprepared for Zhang Yang's long shot!

Zhang Yang exerted great force and the speed of the ball was fast. When Viviani realized that Zhang Yang was going to shoot from a long distance and wanted to make a subconscious save, the ball was already in front of him. Before he could make a save, the ball had already swished. It got into the net with a sound.

The ball is in!

※※※※※※※※※※

"Zhang Yang—" the narrator roared excitedly.

Following his roar, Marseille fans and Marseille coach Fernandez jumped up from their seats.

"Zhang Yang—he shot furiously—!"

"What a powerful shot - buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu -"

"zhang!!!" All the Marseille fans shouted loudly.

"The goal has been scored!! Marseille leads Saint-Etienne 14-[-] at home!! The goal comes from their top scorer Zhang Yang! This is his No.[-] goal in Ligue [-] this season! He locked half of the goal in advance Cheng Jinxue! Savidan is four goals behind him! Only if he scores four goals in one game can he catch up with Zhang Yang!! It is almost absolutely impossible!"

"Congratulations to Zhang Yang, he won the half-time Golden Boot again."

After the goal, Zhang Yang showed an ecstatic expression on his face, but it was not because he won the half-time Golden Boot. For him, although he is happy to lead the scorer list in Ligue [-], it is already very difficult to let him go. He couldn't contain his excitement.His ecstasy is only because of scoring goals. This young man is so eager to score goals in his bones, enjoying the thrill of scoring goals, that's all, it has nothing to do with others.

What's more, such a powerful world wave can definitely stimulate everyone's adrenaline.

Marseille's teammates rushed up to hug Zhang Yang who was ecstatic to celebrate the goal, celebrating his goal.

※※※※※※※※※※

Miguel.Hill was completely unprepared for Zhang Yang's long-range shot. Just now he was talking about Zhang Yang's failure to score a goal. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yang suddenly made a powerful long-range shot——and , the ball went in!

The boss of Atletico Madrid jumped up from the soft leather sofa seat, his eyes widened, and after confirming that the ball had been scored, he waved his arms vigorously. This ball is really beautiful!

When the first half of the game was about to end, no one thought that Zhang Yang would score with a long shot at this time.

Two to zero, a very beautiful long-range score!

A smile has crept up on Miguel.Hill's face.He is applauding.Cheers to this goal.The goal that Zhang Yang scored just now was simply too domineering!So violent!

Miguel.Hill is very satisfied with Zhang Yang. For Atletico Madrid, such a domineering player is needed.Such a shooter, such a goal, really boosts morale!

Especially at the end of the first half, Zhang Yang's goal helped the Marseille team to expand the score to [-]-[-]. At this time, people will not doubt that this game will end with the victory of Marseille.Saint-Etienne wants to comeback in the second half, barring a miracle.

※※※※※※※※※※

Miracles are called miracles because they are rare.

There are no miracles in this game.

Marseille won the game, and the final score was Marseille 3:1 Saint-Etienne. In the second half of the game, after returning from injury, Morientes assisted Nasri and scored a goal after coming off the bench.And Saint-Etienne only scored a consolation goal by their striker Gomis in the eighty minutes of the game.

Zhang Yang did not score twice, nor did he perform a hat-trick. There was only one goal in the whole game, but just this one goal was enough to make Atletico Madrid boss Miguel.Hill was satisfied.

At this moment, he has reached a consensus with club chairman Celezzo, that is to try his best to chase Zhang Yang, at all costs, and grab this young man before the rich team wins Zhang Yang.

The current helm of the Hill family seems to see a day when Atletico Madrid will regain its glory!

※※※※※※※※※※

Zhang Yang naturally didn't know that he had conquered another potential boss, he only knew that he scored another goal, consolidating his position on the Ligue [-] scorer list.Not caught up by the striker from Valenciennes.

He is now leading the scorer list with 19 goals. After the No. 2 round of the league, Valenciennes won the Sedan team 1:2 at home.Savidan scored a goal.In this case, this Valenciennes shooter, who is also from the grassroots, ranks No. [-] in the scorer list with [-] goals and [-] goals behind Zhang Yang.

After this round of the league, the Ligue [-] will enter the winter break, and everyone is starting to prepare for Christmas.

Although Zhang Yang has been abroad for more than a year, he still doesn't have any special feelings about Christmas. Westerners are busy preparing for the holiday, but Zhang Yang really doesn't think it has much meaning.He is a little homesick, which is probably what it means to miss relatives during the festive season.

The rival Saint-Etienne, who won the No.19 round of the league, bid farewell to the first half of the 2006/2007 season and 2006 with a victory. This is something that makes everyone very happy, so I went back to the hotel On the bus, everyone talked and laughed, very relaxed.Besides, the vacation will start when I go back. After working so hard for so long, I can finally have fun and relax. Everyone is naturally in a good mood.Just waiting for disbandment and vacation.

※※※※※※※※※※

The match between Marseille and Saint-Etienne is on December 12.The team announced it was disbanding the night they arrived at their hotel, and the holidays came.

However, for many Maasai people including Zhang Yang, there is one more thing they need to pay attention to.

On December 12, the draw ceremony for the top sixteen matches of the 23/2006 Champions League was held in Nyon, Switzerland.

The principle of this lottery is that the eight first-ranked teams in the group stage will be used as seeds, and the eight second-ranked teams will be determined by lottery. Among them, the teams that have faced each other in the group stage will be avoided in the lottery. A country's club team will also be avoided in the draw, and the second-placed team in the group will play home and then away in the knockout rounds.

The two giants of La Liga, Barcelona and Real Madrid, will encounter fierce battles. They will face Liverpool and Bayern respectively.Inter will face Valencia.

Marseille's opponent is Chelsea. When he saw Eusebio draw Marseille and Chelsea together in front of the TV, Zhang Yang was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed.

This opponent is not bad.

Chelsea is not yet a super giant in the true sense. Their background is still a lot worse. However, Chelsea is recognized as super strong. If you compare it according to the value of the players, Chelsea will definitely rank above all. within the top three of the team.

Some media likened the UEFA Champions League draw to a public relations feast.When UEFA President Johansson watched the sixteen small balls being paired in pairs in a dramatic way, I believe that at the subsequent reception, the UEFA President will receive private thanks from representatives of Nike and Adidas.In European football, which is increasingly dependent on commercial value, the trend of this top event is also affected by the two camps of sports brands.

It can be said that the road to the birth of the European champion is the ultimate confrontation between Nike and Adidas.

In this UEFA Champions League, which game is the most watched in the first knockout round?Barcelona vs Liverpool of course.When Rijkaard and Benitez were at war, the Nike and Adidas logos on the jerseys of the two teams were also particularly conspicuous.This is the sponsorship rule that has recently run through the UEFA Champions League knockout draw-teams of the same camp try to avoid collisions, and the strong dialogue will definitely start between the teams of Nike and the rival Adidas.

Earlier, there was public opinion speculation that as the second place in the group, Nike's Inter Milan will face Adidas' Chelsea.Because this is the most appropriate focus conversation in line with the eyeball economy.However, UEFA gave the most flattering plan-Barcelona vs Liverpool.Firstly, this is a dialogue between two giants with a long history; secondly, this is also a dialogue between the last two European champions; thirdly, the two teams have previously conquered the European arena on behalf of Nike and Adidas.Could there be a more tantalizing Nike vs Adidas battle?

Looking at the previous few seasons, the confrontation between Nike and Adidas is also the main theme of the Champions League knockout.Last season was a triumphant era for the Nike camp.During Barcelona's journey to raise the Big Ears Cup, they witnessed the defeat of Adidas such as Chelsea and AC Milan. The final against Arsenal has become a civil war for Nike. In the end, the "more marketable" Barcelona relied on a near-perfect performance to the top of Europe.

In the 2004-2005 season, the draw of the UEFA Champions League knockout round fulfilled Adidas' single win.In the 18 finals, Chelsea eliminated Barcelona, ​​AC Milan squeezed away Manchester United, Bayern overwhelmed Arsenal, and finally AC Milan and Liverpool joined forces in the final. The night of champions in Istanbul was simply a celebration for Adidas.

Now that the draw for the first knockout round of this UEFA Champions League is announced, Adidas' chance for revenge will come soon.As the Red Army Liverpool that helped the brand win Europe, once the defending champion is brought down, Adidas' comeback this season will clear the biggest obstacle.

Both Marseille and Chelsea belong to the Adidas camp. This can also be regarded as a "civil war". Of course, if Marseille's top scorer Zhang Yang and Chelsea coach Mourinho's agent are Mendes, This is indeed a veritable 'civil war'.

Zhang Yang was talking to Mendes with a smile on the phone, talking about the 'Adidas Civil War', Mendes on the other end of the phone suddenly laughed.

"Zhang, Nike found me, they want to invite you to become their player." Mendes said.
