Chapter 818 Heading to the Ruhr Area

Generally speaking, the aftermath of the World Cup is not obvious in the Trapani team. This season Wenger is a bit lucky, and of course he has his own credit. He has made full use of every member of the team. Shalawi, Young players such as Corgioli and Shalawi have been given a lot of opportunities, allowing some of the main players to have a certain amount of rest.

There is really nothing to do on the front line, there are too many people, and Aguero really doesn't get too many opportunities.

A week later, Trapani ushered in a team that performed particularly well in the league, Lazio. Lazio still occupied the first place in the standings at the beginning of the season. After the start of the season, they started a journey of driving high and low, but they are still in the top six of the standings, and they are fully capable of hitting the Champions League, because their condition has improved after the winter break, and they have played five consecutive games. The game is unbeaten.

Lotito is a stingy person. If he is stingy to a certain extent, he will inevitably get stuck with the players. The reason why Rea came to Lazio to fight the fire last season was entirely because of Lotito. He and the team's Pandev and others Player relations are pretty poor.

Last summer, Lotito terminated the contract with many players, and then invested in the purchase of players such as Garrido and Hernanes. He slapped the media hard in the face.

Rea's three central defenders are running smoothly and powerfully, but they are away after all this time. Trapani has lost a game so far, and it was Lazio who killed them in the first half, so this time they are all He held his breath and wanted to take revenge.

Recently, David Luiz, who has flourished in the team, threatened to give Lazio a little color at home, and Messi, the new golden ball player, also expressed his intention to avenge his shame at home.

Of course, Lazio is not afraid. Swiss full-back Lichtsteiner said that the team hopes to continue to let Trapani in the away game.

"It's always adrenaline pumping to play against a team like Trapani, we're unbeaten in five games and we hope to continue the good momentum we've had recently, beating Trapani will give us a lot of confidence! "

The former Lazio player Kolarov who is currently playing in Trapani does not have much favor for Lazio. Although he did not go to Manchester City in the end, he is very disgusted with Lotito's stinginess, and the behavior of the players as cash cows. So before this game his focus was not on football, but on Lotito.

But Lotito is a bastard, you say yours, he does his, he doesn't respond, he doesn't care at all, it is really helpless to meet such a person, he has a better reputation in the Italian football circle Hugo is much worse.

Rea changed Lazio to a three-back tactic this season, and they still have this look when they come to the Google Stadium. Wenger has made more adequate preparations for this game, and he has learned a lot from a fall. No one wants to be in the game continuously Lazio is overturned in this gutter. Since he is about to go to the Ruhr area of ​​Germany to play against Schalke 04, Wenger also made some necessary rotations. It is very important to play against Lazio, but it is not as important as against Schalke 04.

Kolarov got the chance to start as he wished. He actually played a good number of games this season. Evra is the absolute main force at the left back position, but he has to rest, plus some minor injuries, so Kolarov can There are also many opportunities, and he is very satisfied with his current situation.

Today he tried his best to give his old club a little bit of a bad look. It happened that his side faced Lichtsteiner. Messi did not play in this game, and the story of this game is a bit magical. Laroff and Lichtsteiner outshine the others.

They had many confrontations and conflicts on the court. It is completely invisible that these two were good brothers last season, the guardians of Lazio's wings.

Hugo was also watching the game. To be honest, Lichtsteiner is really good. He is a little jealous of Lotito, and he doesn't know where he got this turtle. In short, Lazio can always polish some players. , Kolarov, Lichtsteiner, Zarate, and Hernanes are all good.

Lichtsteiner impressed Hugo most not in terms of his ability, but in terms of mental attributes. He has a very tenacious fighting spirit. The 352 formation is destined to require strong running ability on the wings. The Swiss international does arrive.

But he is not omnipotent. The reason why this game is said to be a dialogue between him and Kolarov is not only because their side is full of flames, but also because both of them scored goals, each for their own goal. The team scored a goal, of course it was Trapani who won in the end, Suarez continued to score, Modric also scored one, allowing Trapani to avenge Lazio at home, taking all three points.

When Hugo went to the training ground to play the next day, he asked Wenger, "What do you think of Lichtsteiner?!"

Wenger said: "He is not suitable for Trapani now!"

Wenger knew the meaning of Hugo's question. He just wanted to introduce Lichtsteiner, but Wenger didn't appreciate Lichtsteiner very much. If he had to choose between Lichtsteiner and Marjorie , he would choose Ma Qiao without hesitation.

"His fighting spirit is really exciting!" Hugo also understood Wenger's meaning and said regretfully.

"It's a pity that he is not fast, his passing level needs to be improved, and his feet are rough!" Wenger gave his evaluation, and Hugo nodded. Lichtsteiner can be described as a fierce player. Fancy player, the speed is really not too fast, at least not meeting Wenger's requirements.

Wenger likes fast and flexible players, which are good for the frontcourt. Lichtsteiner's body is not flexible, which is not in line with Wenger's selection criteria.

Hugo went to the team deliberately, and he didn't feel angry if he failed to achieve his goal. Appreciation is appreciation. When Wenger made the truth clear, Hugo could accept it, so he was not unhappy.

……

After playing Lazio, the Champions League has rekindled the battle. The advantage of being first in the group is that they can go to the away game first.

This advantage is an advantage that is difficult for people to explain clearly. If you say that he is not an advantage, it must be wrong. The knockout stage of the Champions League is a two-round system. The first round is played first. With a judgment, the advantage of home psychology and momentum in the second round will increase the team's confidence in advancing.

But to say how big this is, it depends on the team. If the mentality is relatively stable and the strength is superior, this advantage of first guest and then host may not have any effect.

Trapani belongs to this kind of team that doesn't care much about this advantage. After all, they have experienced too many battles in recent years. When the Champions League knockout is no longer unfamiliar, it really doesn't matter this advantage.

Wenger may still care about this, but the players don't care much. When talking about the advantage of first away and then home, Barzagli said: "This advantage is mainly psychological! We will try our best to win every game , Whether it’s at home or away! If it’s home first, I don’t think it’s a disadvantage, maybe it’s an advantage!”

The first round was held on the evening of February 2th. Trapani held a press conference on the 16th, and then embarked on the road to the Ruhr area on the evening of the 14th. Why did he go a day earlier? In order to adapt The local climate is nothing more than the local climate. The weather in Trapani is very different from that in the Ruhr area. Going early is just to adapt to the climate there earlier. The Trapani club has already contacted the training ground and hotel early.

Hugo did not go to the Ruhr area with the team. He would go to Germany on the day of the game and take his son Angelo to the away game to watch the game. Julia is simply a gift from God to Hugo. There is a lot of work between the two. The division of labor is very clear, and the tacit understanding has been high for so many years. Well, to be precise, after Sofia can be handed over to the nanny, Julia returned to work and liberated Hugo a lot.
