The strongest winger

Chapter 246 The Anticipated Game

******
Chen Tao made a beautiful appearance in the Champions League, but the other Werder Bremen game did not make the Chinese fans happy. Gao Lin sat on the bench for 10 minutes.

It can be regarded as experiencing the atmosphere of the Champions League in advance.

On the first match day of the Champions League, the traditional strong teams basically scored three points, but...the Red Devils Manchester United this season seem to be in poor form. They lost [-]-[-] at home to Villarreal.

The number one upset of the first game day broke out.

Barcelona, ​​who lost at home to Valencia four days ago, enjoyed a solid first day in the Champions League as they thrashed Greek side Panathinaikos 4-0 away.

However, these are the content reported by the mainstream European sports media, which is completely different from the direction of China's domestic reports, just like England's "Times" and "Guardian" are helping Manchester United find reasons for failure, or praising Arsenal's outstanding performance in the first round of the group stage.

The same is true for other European countries, which mainly focus on the content of their own national team, and the analysis of other teams only accounts for a small part of the newspaper, or even a brushstroke.

Of course, the Chinese sports media mainly report on these teams with Chinese players. With Chen Tao making a good start in Ajax, everyone is also full of expectations for Lyon's Zhao Xuri and Schalke 04's Hao Junmin.

Of course... what everyone is most looking forward to is Aiello in Valencia.

Because he has scored seven goals in the first four rounds of La Liga, holding the top scorer list in La Liga, and looking around the top five European leagues, he is also ranked first.

With Aiello's outstanding performance in La Liga, domestic fans have even more expectations for his performance in the Champions League.

******
Both Flores and Mancini are emerging young marshals in European football. When they were interviewed by the media, they both appeared polite.

For the two clubs, it seems to be very harmonious, and this game also means that it will be a little more harmonious, but... for the reporter, it is a disaster.

Because both teams are very polite, doesn't this mean that the reporters have no valuable news at all besides reporting normal games.

Compared with normal games, these media reporters prefer games full of verbal battles and gunpowder, just like Mourinho and Ferguson and Wenger in the Premier League, or the grievances between Vieira and Roy Keane.

Only in this way...the reporters will have news to write, news means sales, and sales will also mean that they will have a considerable bonus.

So these reporters no longer expected any kind of gunpowder between the two young marshals, and they were ready to shift their targets, especially... Adriano, who was recently called the 'King' by the fans of Inter Milan.

This is a notoriously bad boy and big mouth.

Maybe... there will be news to dig!
******
After Inter Milan came to the Mestalla Stadium for the last time, the reporters surrounded Adriano.

"It's just a few hours away, what are your expectations for this game?"

"Daily Sports" reporter asked.

Adriano put his hands on his hips and raised his eyebrows, "Of course we won this game, Valencia is definitely not our opponent!"

Tut tut -
Suddenly, Adriano murdered a lot of 'flywheels'.

The reporters immediately became excited. They didn't expect Adriano to answer the first question so hotly. It's a big mouth!

The reporters of "World Sports Daily" laughed, this is simply the same as the Chinese boy in Valencia, he is full of confidence in any game!
Immediately afterwards, the reporter of "Daily Sports" struck while the iron was hot, and asked pretending to be worried: "But... Valencia, which is playing at home, now has an Ai who is in very good form. He has scored seven league goals in the four league rounds..."

"Oh?" Adriano immediately opened his mouth naturally and became surprised. He scored seven league goals in four games, which is incredible!

Already comparable to half of his goals last season, but the unrestrained he certainly would not admit that Ai Luo is stronger than him, so he shrugged and said disapprovingly, "I have never heard of it..."

Wow……

The excitement of these reporters was even more palpable, and they could be seen from each other's eyes.

Except, of course, for the local sports media in Valencia.

They dug up sensational news from Adriano, so... then it's the Chinese boy's turn!

So, after finishing the interview with Adriano hastily, we headed towards the hotel where we had dinner in Valencia...

******
The bus on which the Valencia players arrived at the restaurant was surrounded by a swarm of reporters before the players got off the bus, which surprised the players on the bus.

This is just an ordinary Champions League group match, there's no need to make it so intense, right?
If you have to find something in common with Inter Milan, it would be Flores and Mancini, who are also young coaches, but... didn't they already meet at the press conference before the game?
So... there is only one last point left. Both teams were the third in their respective leagues last season.

Of course, this is not the case.

These puzzled players also knew the reason later.

After the Valencia players got off the bus in batches, the reporters surrounded Aiello.

After listening to the questions of these reporters, Ai Luo looked at these reporters. From the eyes of these people, he seemed to be able to see some clues, smiling with malicious intentions, couldn't it?

Do you want to get some sensational topics out of your own mouth?

Thinking of this, Ai Luo seemed to have guessed something, so he shrugged and smiled, "He doesn't know me? It's okay... I believe that in the game tonight, he will know who I am!"

At this time, Ai Luo's teammates realized why the reporters were so idle and came to the restaurant where they were eating. It turned out that they wanted to dig out some news from Ai Luo's mouth.

But... they were visibly disappointed.

******
Immediately afterwards, these reporters seemed to be idle. After interviewing from Aiello, they went to the hotel where Inter Milan was staying to look for Adriano.

They were lucky to see the tall Adriano in the hotel lobby.

The reporters, like a professional news reporter, patiently told Adriano what they had interviewed from Valencia.

Adriano's reaction was also in their favor. He gritted his teeth and said, "Hmph! Then I'll wait for him (Ai Luo) to tell me—who is he..."

At this moment, Materazzi just came to Adriano's side, "Huh? What's wrong with our 'king'??"

After some explanations from the reporters...

Of course, the reporters also modified a lot of content, for example, Ai Luo looked down on Inter Milan's defense, dismissed Materazzi and Cordoba, etc...

Materazzi was filled with righteous indignation just like Adriano, he clenched his fist and said loudly: "Then I will let him know what Italian defense is, and... if there is a chance, I will let him know why the flowers are so red..." After finishing speaking, he grinned.

Immediately, several reporters opposite Materazzi couldn't help shivering, as if the temperature nearby suddenly dropped several degrees.

Now... the reporters left contentedly.

With the news in hand, plus the results of tonight's game, no matter whether they win or lose or draw, they will have a lot of news to write, not to mention the sales of newspapers tomorrow!
There are even quite a few reporters who have already sent text messages to their bosses to reserve bonuses in advance.

******
At around [-]:[-] p.m., the Mestalla Stadium was basically full. Although the players hadn't arrived yet, the fans in the stands were not idle either.

They entertained themselves and sang team songs under the leadership of their respective leaders.

The home team Valencia fans wearing white jerseys almost covered the entire Mestalla Stadium, only occasionally seeing a small piece of blue and black visiting team fans.

They showed great enthusiasm for the team's first Champions League game, as if they hadn't seen their team's Champions League game at their home court for a long time.

In fact, they saw it at the end of December last year, but at that time they had already lost their qualifications for qualifying from the group, and could only fight for third place in the group and participate in the UEFA Cup.

But now it is different. The team is strong and strong. The striker David Villa's speed of integrating into the team is amazing. In addition, they have an excellent Aiello, which also makes them full of expectations for the new season of the Champions League.

The most eye-catching thing in the entire Mestalla Stadium is the flag waved by the leader of the bat guard, Joe Winnie --- Champions League, we are back again!
Indeed, we are back!
Having won the UEFA Cup four times, they no longer need this second-tier European championship. What they need is the St. Blair Cup.

Although they know that this is unrealistic, Valencia is not a world-recognized giant, they are just a giant in Spain, but these fans can't help but fantasize and look forward to...

******
At 07:30 local time in Spain, players from both sides began to warm up.

Suddenly... the entire Mestalla stadium seemed to tremble slightly, especially when the Valencia players, led by captain Canizares, waved to the home team fans in the stands, the entire sky was filled with their burst of energy.

When the two sides entered the field to warm up, there were not many scenes that made the reporters on the sidelines ecstatic.

They hoped that Aiello and Adriano, who suddenly sparked before the game, would have a live-action fight. Of course... this is not realistic. The two are players that teams rely on on the offensive line, and they will not meet during the warm-up.

But then an interesting scene happened. When the goalkeeper Toldo threw the goal kick, it seemed that he used a bit too much force. Adriano failed to catch the football during the retreat, so... he could only run to Valencia's half to pick up the ball, but as usual, he didn't have to run directly. He only needed to shout and someone would kick the ball over.

But this time he changed his mind, because he saw Ai Luo set up the football and was about to try a free kick on the spot. At this time, he was unruly and unruly and suddenly wanted to play a prank.

He kicked the football under his feet at the football in front of Ai Luo before Ai Luo kicked his feet. There was no accident... Ai Luo was running up because the football in front of him was touched by another football. He couldn't stop the car under his feet and fell on the turf.
