Green Dragon

Chapter 715 The anger of the loser? !
"Nominated for... UEFA Player of the Year 2015-16 is..."

Accompanied by the wonderful pictures played on the big screen, the names of three people sounded from the loudspeakers in the venue.

European Cup, Champions League, Spanish King's Cup triple champion, La Liga Champions League double golden boot, Real Madrid and Portugal double ace... Ronaldo.

European Cup, Champions League double runner-up, La Liga MVP, European Cup Golden Boot and MVP, Atletico Madrid ace, French main... Griezmann.

The Europa League, Premier League, FA Cup, and League Cup have won four championships, and won the Golden Boot and MVP of the four competitions. At the same time, they beat Ronaldo to win the European Golden Boot with an absolute advantage. Liverpool and the ace captain of the Chinese team... Long special.

The three candidates stepped onto the stage one by one and stood side by side.

Ronaldo's expression was very serious, and even made people feel that he was a little nervous.

On the contrary, Griezmann is the one who is more relaxed, because he already knows that under the confrontation between the two kings, he is just the one who makes up the number, so he didn't even wear leather shoes today, and directly found a pair from the shoe cabinet The sneakers jumped onto the stage.

Although in terms of the number of collective honors and individual awards, Long Shute is the longest one, and his number of goals has surpassed the sum of Ronaldo and Griezmann, but he is obviously at a disadvantage when he misses the Champions League .

Originally, the Europa League champion and the Champions League champion could never be compared, but Long Shute abruptly kept this game in suspense.

他在15场欧联杯比赛中轰进了53粒进球，又在32场英超联赛中攻入95球，加上其他杯赛，他在2015-16赛季里总共砍下了156粒进球！
He used such data to keep the suspense of winning until the end!
No one can ignore such a crazy scoring machine that has never been seen before or since...

Even Ronaldo's own heart is beating drums frequently.

But Long Shute did not have much expectation for this personal award.

Leading Liverpool to the Premier League title after 26 years is of course an extremely important event for the Red Army, but for the entire European football world, especially UEFA officials, it is just a small news that can be thrown away.

Sure enough, the name that UEFA President Ceferin called out did not surprise Long Shute:

"Cristiano... Ronaldo!"

Ronaldo's expression was obviously much more relaxed, an uncontrollable smile rippling on his face, even the hands that were connected to the trophy trembled slightly.

He is no longer a fledgling young man. At the age of 31, he has experienced all the peaks and valleys of professional players, but at a moment, he still can't hide his excitement.

Because... this is the first time he has defeated Long Shute in direct competition!

If nothing else, this year's Ballon d'Or and World Player of the Year (the two awards have been officially separated) will not leave others alone.

In 2008, 2014, and 2016, he was finally able to tie up with Long Shute and Messi, and also holds three top individual honors!
They are finally back on the same starting line! -
"This is the era of three pillars!"

"Long Meiluo has dominated the world football for the past nine years!"

"The last earthling standing at the apex was Kaka."

……

Every time the media wants to blow Long Meiluo, Kaka will lie down, which has become a common practice.

自从2007年卡卡登顶欧洲之后，C罗成为了2008年的新王，而梅西则连续斩获2009和2010年的两座金杯——尽管国际米兰才是2010年欧洲足坛的王者。

In 2011, Messi was infinitely close to his three consecutive championships, but the sudden emergence of Long Shute took the lead in accomplishing this goal. He won the world's best in 2011, 2012 and 2013 consecutively, making the entire football world stand behind him. trembling under the iron hooves.

With 2014, Long Shute once again won the Champions League trophy. Everyone thought that this year would once again be defined as the era of Chinese dragons, but a sudden serious injury caused him to fall directly from the peak to the abyss.

Ronaldo, who took advantage of the void, won his second Ballon d'Or, although this trophy is a bit misleading.

Messi won his third in 2015, followed by Ronaldo in 2016.

2016 must belong to Ronaldo, because he won his own national team championship before Messi!

History and reality always like to joke with people. It is clear that Argentina is much stronger than Portugal, but they have stopped the finals in the national team competition for three consecutive years, making Messi miss the best opportunity to directly become a god.

Is this strength or luck? -
"Long, don't you feel a little regretful for not being able to win this award? After all, your performance last season was so outstanding..."

Perhaps out of pity for the losers, the host also deliberately left a little time for Long Shute and Griezmann to speak, so that they would not be reduced to the background.

Griezmann's answer was of course nothing new:
"It's a pity, but I know that there is still some gap between myself and the top, so I will continue to work hard."

And Long Shute is obviously more liked by reporters:

"I have no regrets at all because I will personally take back what is mine.

If anyone sees me as a competitor, they need to start cheering up now.

Because... I won't leave anyone with a chance to take advantage of it! "
-
The UEFA Champions League draw and awards ceremony took place on the afternoon of August 8th, and Liverpool went to the away game on the 25th to start the third round of the league challenge.

A very strange fact is that in the first three league rounds of the new season, Liverpool played away games...

Although three consecutive away games do meet the schedule requirements, in a general sense, playing away games all the time will obviously put more pressure on the players, and it will be difficult to quickly find their status.

So people have to wonder, is the Premier League ready to attack them? -
If you add the Community Shield and the UEFA Super Cup, Liverpool have played away games for five consecutive games. Compared with their opponents who are waiting for a rabbit and playing two games less - Tottenham Hotspur, their physical fitness And the spirit is obviously not dominant.

Coupled with the fact that Rogers and Long Shute, the generals, wasted a day to participate in the draw ceremony, no matter how you calculate it, Tottenham playing at home is more secure.

But... Pochettino and his disciples did not see a tired Liverpool team at White Hart Lane.

The red visiting team set off an offensive frenzy from the very beginning, sweeping the entire stadium with red flames!
-
"The visiting team adopted a certain degree of rotation in this game. Firmino and Sturridge rested. Benteke, Gerrard and Lallana all got the chance to start. New aids Mane and Van Dijk have also been included in the 11-man squad."

Zhan Tianjun was still introducing the lineups of the two sides, when his left eyelid suddenly twitched slightly.

He quickly raised his gaze, and saw the familiar red No. 8 swung his right foot directly from the backcourt, and kicked a long pass over 60 meters!

It is obviously impossible for the tall Yunli King Kong Benteke to catch up with such a pass, but Mane, who won the first start, did not give up!
"Mane! He caught Gerrard's pass on the edge of the box!"

Zhan Tianjun and Zhang Lu repeatedly praised:

"His speed is indeed too fast!"

Mane, who is at full horsepower, can't even slow down the inside cut, because his foot skills are far inferior to his own speed.

So he twisted his body abruptly, and then... pushed the ball diagonally backward!
Benteke, who was closest to him, couldn't help feeling nervous:
Brother, I am a traditional high center. If you pass me this kind of ball, do you want me to continue breaking into the penalty area?Or let me go straight to the long shot?

These two scoring skills... I am not very good at them!
The Belgian striker was still nervous, but he finally found out that it was just his boring troubles.

Because from the beginning... Mane's pass...wasn't him at all!

A red hurricane passed by Benteke, and he could only see the strange light shining from the two white numbers behind him.

One is 9 and the other is 5!

Long Shute hit the ball with a push!
Liverpool opened the scoring in the 3rd minute!

1-0!
