The first round of the competition, and the second round of the competition was held in the middle and early March.

After the second Wednesday in March, the quarter-finals of this year's Champions League are hotly released.

Among them, the two Spanish giants Barcelona and Real Madrid broke through respectively.And Arsenal, AC Milan, Chelsea, Bayern, Juventus and Manchester United also have a seat in the quarter-finals of this year's Champions League.Reports about the quarter-finals of this year's Champions League are almost overwhelming, and can be seen in any corner of Europe.

However, while the Champions League has attracted the attention of most European fans, many media have also divided some attention to the Europa League.

On Thursday, the Europa League round of [-] will have their round of finals

The second round will also determine which eight teams will leave and which eight teams will continue their Europa League matches.

For some teams whose outcome is still unclear, most of the media have reservations.However, for Turin, which was taken away by Ajax with a big score of 3:1, most of the media except the Turin Sports News expressed their disbelief.There are even a small number of media who said that if the opponent is Ajax, it would not be too embarrassing for Torino, who has only been promoted to the First Division for a year, to lose or even be double-killed at home and away.

Whenever the Torino players see similar reports, they will be very silent.They seem to be seeing through these reports something that should never have happened in their lives anyway...

"Ding dong" "Ding dong"

A doorbell rang in a villa on the outskirts of Turin.The owner of the house heard the sound and quickly came out of the room on the second floor, and saw two familiar figures on the monitor at the stairs, so he quickly pressed the door open button, and then rushed down.

When he rushed to the door of the living room on the first floor, the other party just closed the door.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Yue."

"Good afternoon, West Yorkshire."

It was West York, the all-round butler of the Francisco family, who came.And, of course, Francisco.So Yue Yihuang smiled at Francisco after saying hello to West York.

Francisco: "Siyork said that the maid you asked him to find last time already has a suitable candidate. So I brought everyone today."

Yue Yihuang: "Really? Thank you so much!"

If it was still the small apartment in the past, Yue Yihuang would have done all the cleaning work and tidying up the house by himself, so it wouldn't take too much energy.But now that he has moved to this three-story villa, it is obvious that one person cannot perform daily maintenance on this house, and it is impossible for him to have so much energy.

So hiring two reliable maids has become an urgent matter.

But obviously, Yue Yihuang didn't have any talent in this area. The maid he hired smashed a set of ceramic tea sets in the house on the first day of his arrival, and even packed up Yue Yihuang's things. I can't remember where I put things at all.

So Yue Yihuang, who had a headache, thought of the able butler and maids of Francisco's family, and asked Francesco if he could ask West York to find him two reliable and capable maids.

Unexpectedly, in the past two days, the other party has already found a suitable candidate for him.

"This is Natasha, very capable, her daughter is only six years old, and she just needs a job that ends by [-]pm on weekdays so she can pick her daughter up from school. In return , she can come here every day after you wake up, and prepare breakfast for you. And this one, this is Elaine, she has many younger siblings, and she is very good at cleaning and maintaining the house since she was a child. And she also I can tend the flower garden for you, and I think you will be satisfied."

West York gave Yue Yihuang a brief introduction to the two maids he had hired, and then took them to familiarize themselves with the house, and explained some things that need attention in work.

So only Yue Yihuang and Francisco were left in the living room.

Francisco asked Yue Yihuang what he was doing just now.The latter gave an answer that was completely expected by the other party: "I was just watching a football game."

After saying this, Yue Yihuang turned around and went upstairs. Without words, Francisco followed Yue Yihuang to the small projection hall combined with the study.As long as the movable bookcase on the wall is pushed away, you can see the large-screen TV embedded in the wall.And this TV has a Bluetooth function, which can directly display the screen on the computer after code matching.

And what is being played on this large LCD screen now is the high-definition video of the match between Turin and Ajax.

"How many times have you watched this game? The fourth time?"

"No, maybe the sixth time."

Asked casually, but got a dumbfounding answer.Francisco had to take a good look at his partner to see what he was going to do with himself before the game.Or, it was just an excuse, he just wanted to look at each other.As if he was addicted, he didn't want to look away for a moment.

The No. 11 shadow forward of the Turin team didn't realize what his partner was thinking at this moment. He took out another cup from the same tea set from the cabinet and poured a cup of the vine that he had just brewed for Francisco. Tea.Then he used the ultra-long-range wireless mouse that was at hand to click the play button of the video again, picked up the white porcelain cup with golden patterns, and watched the game intently.

"I have watched this game five times. I think I understand where I did not play well, what should I do, and how to deal with it to get better results. But until now, I have Can't imagine... how it will be in tomorrow's game. How we can get two more goals from Ajax than them. To be honest, I am now... very upset."

When saying these words, Yue Yihuang, who was barefoot, knees on his chest, holding a teacup and sinking deep in the comfortable sofa, closed his eyes.He doesn't need to remind his brain, the deep memory has already told him what kind of picture will appear on the video of the next game.He was even able to memorize everything said by the narrator on this version of the telecast.

In Yue Yihuang's career, he has rarely experienced such pressure.

Before he was 19 years old, he couldn't feel what it means to be desperate for the promotion of the team.

He is one of the heroes of Turin's promotion from the second division to the first division.However, even in the last year when Turin was in the second division, Yue Yihuang could not feel such a burden.

The two-line battle between the league and the Europa League has reached the most critical step this week.

If they can't beat Ajax at home tomorrow, and beat Ajax by a big score, then tomorrow's game will be their last game in this Europa League, and then they I'm going to go home.

If they can't continue to lose to AC Milan in this Saturday's game, then their ranking in the Serie A standings will no longer be restored, and it is very likely that they will not even be able to rank in the Europa League next year.

If...if this is the case, there will definitely be more people laughing at Turin as a team that has just been promoted from the second division and cannot accept a bigger test at all.

"Did you also encounter such a situation when you were fighting on two fronts in the Champions League? How did you do it at that time?"

"Maybe I should say that a strong team is not allowed to lose. Victory is the norm. Because once he loses, he will have no chance to make up points against a team as strong as his."

After saying these words, Francisco took away the porcelain cup Yue Yihuang was holding and put it on the table.Holding a cup of tea with your eyes closed is not something to be encouraged.

Francisco smiled helplessly. He sat closer to Yue Yihuang, then stretched out his arms very naturally, and hugged his partner to his chest.

"Can't you stop staring at the standings all the time?"

Before Yue Yihuang could speak, Francisco said this sentence, causing the other party to be silent in a daze.So Francisco continued to laugh and said: "Tomorrow is going to play against Ajax, but you are still thinking about AC Milan. Maybe this means that Ajax is not worth fearing in your subconscious?"

The two consecutive sentences blocked Yue Yihuang to death, and he was stunned for a long time before he said:

"Okay then, I just think about Ajax first. We have to score two more goals than Ajax tomorrow. I think Ajax will continue to use the 433 formation tomorrow. So we play 4231 against them. , in the first three 10 minutes we can't concede a goal. No... I mean it's better to not concede a goal until the end of the first half. Then we have to keep scoring a goal in three 10 minutes..."

When Yue Yihuang said these things, the picture that had been spinning in his head countless times appeared again.That kind of power is as strong as a brainwashing song, appearing in Yue Yihuang's head over and over again, and the more he wants to drive it away, the clearer and stronger it becomes.Until now he has lost control of his brain.

Yue Yihuang was still counting, counting the goals and the scoring time, while Francisco beside him was already laughing.He slapped it with his palm, grabbed Yue Yihuang's two hands, and pulled him up directly.

"Come on, I asked Sewerk to bring some soothing aromatherapy. He's got those in your house now. Except... this room."

So now come downstairs with me, or go outside to enjoy the sunset.

Yue Yihuang, who usually doesn't talk much, started to talk more because of the nervousness before the game: "Well, I know this is wrong. But I admit, I may be a little nervous. I can't control my brain .Oh, here comes the ball. I can't pass it directly to you. I have to give it to Parel first. Maybe the Ajax defender has come to intercept the ball at this time. So I change positions with him. Then he Pass it back to me, and then I flip the ball lightly...God, why does the picture in my head turn so fast...Do you think it's true that Dro said to order tights..."

Listening to this, Francisco just laughed, but did not speak.He didn't let go of Yue Yihuang's hand.

A ridiculous idea appeared in his mind.

If only this were forever... that would be great.

On the first floor of the house, two very efficient ladies have cleaned the house and turned the deserted small garden outside the house into an open-air barbecue.Flowers are arranged on small wooden tables and of course candles floating in water glasses.On the dining table, under each set of utensils are two large and small square scarves arranged in a diamond shape.The large square is dark blue, and the small square is white.It looks romantic and warm.

The barbecue table is already filled with all kinds of seafood.But those didn't seem to be all, Siwok also continued to take out seafood such as scallops, mussels, scallops, sea crabs, prawns, and squid from the small refrigerator he brought.Of course, there are oysters that can be eaten directly, maybe a few drops of lemon juice will be a good choice.

Seeing the two going downstairs, West York, who was standing outside the glass wall of the villa, waved at them, and the two ladies seemed to be in a good mood and smiled at their new employer.

"Maybe you need to eat a good meal and then go take a hot shower and be in bed by seven. I'll back up the Ajax games on your computer before I leave and delete them for you. Listen , today you don’t have to do anything, and you don’t have to think about anything. This is the pre-match task assigned by Delo.”

When he got to the gate, Francisco let go of Yue Yihuang, and stepped forward to open the door for him in a very gentlemanly manner, standing in the afterglow of the setting sun and looking at his partner.
