[Football] Crown of Thorns

After the first round of the Champions League knockout round, Liverpool followed up with two league games. The Red Army first won Southampton 2-0, and then played 2-1 with Manchester City, beating Manchester City by one goal. In the FA Cup, Liverpool Another 1-0 victory over Blackburn, followed by the second round of the Champions League knockout round, they will go to Porto to play away.

Before Liverpool went to Porto, Gama received another telex from his captain.

At the same time as Liverpool and Porto in the first round, Real Madrid and Schalke 04 also played in the first round of the knockout round. Real Madrid took the lead with a 2-0 victory in the away game. They only need to draw in the second round. to eliminate the opponent.At the same time, Real Madrid also tied Bayern's record of 10 consecutive victories in the Champions League. If they beat Schalke in the second round, Real Madrid will exclusively enjoy the record of consecutive victories in the Champions League.

However, Real Madrid lost 0 to 1 to Bilbao in the league last weekend. In the last two rounds, they had 1 draw and 1 loss. The points were surpassed by Barcelona. Almost gave up the game in the final stage, maybe they will vent their accumulated depression to the Champions League.

"Hmph, captain, you should finish your game first!"

"Brat, how dare you talk to me like that!"

Ronaldo laughed and cursed.

"Who told you that every text message you send seems to be provocative, it's too much."

Gama complained.

"Nonsense, I'm obviously just encouraging you."

"Hehe~~~"

The two argued for a long time before hanging up the phone.

Hmph, this year's Champions League champion must be mine!

Gama clenched his fist.

2015年3月10日，欧冠1/8决赛第二回合，波尔图对利物浦的比赛在波尔图主场开打。

In the first leg, Liverpool beat Porto 2-0 at home, leading Porto.

Despite losing the first leg, Porto were not to be outdone, and while their midfielder Oliva Torres, strikers Adrian and Martinez are all sidelined through injury, they were still strong ahead of the game self-confidence.

"They won without my consent?"

In the pre-match interview, it was rare for Gama to answer a reporter's question like this.

As a result, various media have appeared on the front page of sports with headlines such as "Dagama's domineering response to the challenge", which also aroused the curiosity of many people.

Ronaldo: I said a long time ago that Chico should be like this. This is the core leadership quality.

Ge Fat: Chico is a good player, but now he has become a good leader.

Nani: A bit of a surprise, but he's fine.

Veloso: Chico is very good.

…………

"Yo yo, domineering!"

Furtado grinned at Gama.

Jia Ma held his head high, "Master, of course I'm the best."

Teammates: Hehe! !

Although Porto absolutely dominated the game in the second round, what is even more surprising is that their possession rate reached 6%, and Porto also took the lead in the number of shots, but it was in this state , Liverpool only used three passes to score in the whole game, and Gama even scored a beautiful free kick to expand the lead again.

Another tidbit of this game is that many fans and players of the Panthers came to watch the game live.

They held up Gama's jersey posters during the Panther period, as well as various slogans cheering for Gama, setting off waves of celebration in the stands of the Porto Dragon Stadium.

This also aroused the dissatisfaction of many Porto fans, and even almost fought on both sides of the barbed wire fence in the stands.

Even in the British broadcast footage, many of these scenes were broadcast.

Even though Porto recovered a goal in the end, with a total score of 3-1, Liverpool still eliminated Porto and successfully entered the next round, the one-eighth knockout round.

"I said, we will definitely win."

In the locker room after the game, Gama said this with my most arrogant expression.

Of course, he got the unanimous middle finger reply from all his teammates.

"Xiko didn't have this problem before!"

Jie Baozi said this to Tomei in a low voice.

Tommy blinked, "Actually, that's pretty good."

A domineering commander is better than a silent one.

"install!"

Seeing Furtado, Jie Baozi asked him again.

Furtado thought about it, "Isn't this very good, only domineering has momentum!"

Jie Baozi: Cut!

…………

After the game, Gama also met with several of his teammates in the Panthers. Of course, he also handed over the jerseys and signatures of the teammates who were confessed by the teammates.

Jie Baozi or Tuo Meiren, who were found in the cabinet by Jiama, looked at their empty cabinet silently. What else could they say? ?

…………

"It feels like you've been overexcited recently!"

After returning to Liverpool, Rivertador said this to Gama in private.

"Is there?"

"Have!"

"Is it bad?"

"Actually, it's fine."

"Hehe~~~"

"Shiko!"

"how?"

"........."

"cut!"

"...By the way, you're going to the dentist for a follow-up visit."

"??"

"Don't run away, go for a follow-up visit."

As mentioned before, Gama felt uncomfortable with his teeth. Furtado found that his teeth were a little black. After an appointment with a dentist, he concluded that Gama’s teeth were caused by trauma, necrosis and discoloration of the pulp, and needed fillings. medicine treatment.

"trauma?"

"I was hit several times during the game!"

"...Damn it!"

"Oh, afraid of the dentist?"

"No, I'm just angry, my handsome face will be destroyed~~~"

"..."

Furtado: Xiko is really getting more and more shameless. Thinking about the flower of Gaoling back then, hehehehe! ! !

…………

As a player, especially the first-team main force with many games, in addition to fighting for the club in the league, he also has to fight for his respective national team.

Gama is no exception. The UEFA Champions League knockout round has just ended, and he returned to the Premier League to play in the league with the team. Especially now that the league has reached the difficult stage of the championship, he dare not be careless in every game. In the middle of the league, he still needs to go back to China to play in the 2016 Euro Cup qualifiers. He is really exhausted like a dog!

In a blink of an eye, on March 3th, Portugal's Euro 29 qualifiers started again. This is their fourth opponent in the group stage, the Serbian team.

In Group I, the strength of the Serbian team is second only to Denmark, which should not be underestimated.

And in this 2016 European Cup qualifier Group I contest, the Portuguese team will face Serbia at the National Stadium.

In the previous three rounds of the group, Portugal ranked second with 3 wins and 2 loss. If they can win this battle, they will surpass Denmark and rise to the first place in the group.

The Portuguese team and the Serbian team have only played against each other twice before, and all the battles ended in a draw.

Both games took place in Euro 2008 qualifiers, both 1-1, when Thiago and Simão scored for Portugal.

This national team game is also the first game of the Portuguese team in 2015.

Due to the upset loss to Albania in the first round of the qualifiers, although they won two consecutive victories afterwards, Portugal still only ranked second in the group, 1 point behind the leader Denmark with one game less.According to regulations, the top two teams in the group can directly advance to the finals, but the Portuguese team did not dare to be careless. It is the best strategy to take advantage of the warm-up match between Denmark and France to win Serbia and then take the top spot in the group.

Therefore, no matter what the outside world says, the players themselves must have a clear understanding and must win the game and strive to get three points.

As the core of the team's midfield, the pressure on Gama's shoulders can be imagined.

In particular, coach Santos also had a special conversation with Gama. For the new coach, even though he has played a game under his command, Gama still doesn't know him very well.

I believe the coach has some doubts about Gama's views.

In any case, in order to win, a frank dialogue between the two sides is also essential.

So after returning to the team, Gama sat in front of the new coach for the first time and had a 10-minute conversation with Santos.

Santos, "You are the core of the midfield, and the responsibility of organizing and commanding on the field is very heavy. I hope you can withstand the pressure."

Gama: "Okay, sir, I'll try."

Santos: "I hope you can do it."

Gama: "No problem, sir."

The two said a few words dryly and fell silent at the same time.

For them, any passionate encouragement is actually unnecessary, what they need is mutual trust and perfection.

When Jia Ma walked out of the office, he scratched the hair that had just been cut short, and looked at the figure of someone running on the field not far away.

Gama smiled inexplicably.

Then, let's use the game to explain everything!

"Hey Chico!"

"Hey~~~"

"Let's play football!"

"OK!"

…………

After everyone gathered in the team, Portuguese superstar C Ronaldo immediately received everyone's attention.

As for why?

"Is Cristiano really alright?"

"I think it's all right!"

Veloso hesitated, "When I came in, I saw him smiling and walking with Pepe there!"

"Maybe it's all right!"

Gama frowned, then relaxed.

Before coming to the national team, it was the national derby between Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​but Real Madrid lost the game.

Think about it, whenever Ronaldo and the others met the national derby, they were used to compare with Messi before and after the game, and whenever the national team played, there were always opponent fans who would see Ronaldo holding the ball on the sidelines Just yelling Messi at him will cause Ronaldo to be in a bad mood almost every time.

Therefore, when he heard that Real Madrid lost the national derby, Gama was always worried about Ronaldo's mood when he came to the training camp.

After he came, he was called by the coach to talk, and it was already after lunch when he saw Ronaldo.

That's why he asked Veloso later if he found that Ronaldo was in a bad mood.

While the few of them were talking in the room, loud laughter came from the open window.

This made Jia Ma and the others very strange, so they lay on the window and looked out, but they could hear many teammates laughing there, but they couldn't see what was going on.

Gama, Veloso, and Furtado looked at each other and ran out quickly.

Then, on the parking lot next to the training ground, they saw a big silver guy in the style.

"What is this?"

Gama raised his eyebrows when he saw Ronaldo, Pepe, Coentrao, and other teammates laughing.

Coentraan turned his head, and couldn't straighten his back from laughing, "Come on, look at this~~~"

He pointed at the big silvery guy in front of him, smiling really silly.

Gama glanced at the thing, and was about to say what the hell it was, when he saw Quaresma standing next to it with an "embarrassed" expression. After another look, Gama felt that it seemed to be a car.

Take a closer look, the lump turned out to be a layer of tinfoil with a big "CR7" logo on it.

Now, Jia Ma is also embarrassed.

"team leader!"

Ronaldo turned his head and raised his eyebrows, "How about it, isn't it beautiful!"

"What is this?"

Gama couldn't laugh or cry, and only then did he understand why Quaresma looked embarrassed, but it turned out that their captain, Mr. Ronaldo, made a joke with his teammates after he came to the national team, and wrapped Quaresma's luxury car in a bag Layers of silver tinfoil with his sneaker "CR7" logo on it.

Although it was a spoof, the atmosphere in the team suddenly became lively afterwards.

Ronaldo folded his arms and winked at Gama.

Jia Ma sighed. Needless to say, such a large "chartered car project" cannot be done by one person. I don't know how many teammates or staff will help here!

Anyway, everyone's mood can be relaxed.

That's fine.

So, let's play, guys!
