Chapter 282 Promotion (two-in-one four thousand chapters)

"This is a very exciting game. The tenacity of Rome, which has one less player, made Real Madrid desperate most of the time. In the last minute, the Romans wanted to keep the victory. It is a pity that the powerful Real Madrid relies on the outstanding performance of the stars. Take a victory. This makes Rome extremely passive in the second round." George concluded the game.

At the press conference after the game, Spalletti expressed his great disappointment with the result of the game, highly praised the 10 players who fought, and sprayed the referee.

Capello also expressed his dissatisfaction with the referee because he blew away a good shot by Raul.He praised Xia Qi's dexterity and Fan Ni's footwork.

……

The press conference is the job of the coach and the captain, and the Real Madrid young people go to the Vatican in a group.

This is the smallest country in the world and a holy place for Catholicism.

St. Peter's Basilica is the most famous building in the Vatican. This is an epic church that took 200 years and five generations of architects to complete.

Raphael and Michelangelo, two of the most powerful architects in history, were too creative, and a good building was not completely built according to the original drawings, and a little bit of their ideas were mixed in, which led to a flaw.

After visiting the Vatican, Casillas fulfilled his promise to take everyone to the capital of the gods to see the flower fairy. It is strange that the more sacred the place, the more developed the flower capital.

Such as: Nanjing Confucius Temple and Qinhuai River Flower Boat, Vatican and Flower Street.

...

On the plane back to Madrid, the major media are predicting the top eight list.

Real Madrid beat Rome 2:3 away, which is equivalent to entering the quarterfinals with one foot.

The Premier League Red Army beat the Serie A leaders 2:0 at home at Anfield. If there is no accident, Liverpool will also enter the quarterfinals.

In another match between England and Italy, Professor Arsene Wenger's Arsenal drew 0-0 with the Rossoneri AC Milan at Highbury Stadium. The media believed that Arsenal had the upper hand, and AC Milan had no away goals. Back in Milan they faced a must-win situation.

Barcelona, ​​another giant in La Liga, defeated the Celtics of the Scottish Super League 2:3 away. After a period of downturn, Messi finally scored again and scored twice, thus overtaking Manchester United's C in the scorer list. Luo and Inter Milan's Ibrahimovic.

Another team in La Liga, Sevilla, beat Fenerbahce 3:2 at home, and Manchester United beat Lyon 0:1 in an away game and took away an away goal. The media also believed that they entered the quarterfinals.

切尔西客场3:0狂胜奥林匹亚，波尔图主场1:0小胜沙克尔04。

The media concluded that the teams that will advance to the quarter-finals in the second round are Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Sevilla, and Porto
If this prediction comes true for the four teams in the Premier League and the three teams in La Liga, the Premier League will take four places in the quarter-finals of the Champions League for two consecutive years. The Premier League is the most powerful proof of the strongest league in Europe and the world. Blow it.

Four days later, No.20 of La Liga played against Getafe at home in the fifth round. Capello continued to maintain the rotation strategy. Neither Raul nor Ruud van Nistelrooy played in this game. Veterans Pei Ye and Kaka rested, and Sneijder and Guti started.

Getafe, which is in the relegation zone this season, imitated Roma's style of play, forming a well-organized iron barrel formation surrounded by layers.

However, at this time and at that time, Real Madrid played Rome in the rain, but at this time the sun was shining.After several long-range shots were rejected by Real Madrid, they began to play tiki-taka patiently, slowly infiltrating the opponent's defense line, eating away at the opponent's territory bit by bit.

In the 65th minute, Guti made an oblique pass to the side. Higuain volleyed from a small angle on the edge of the penalty area and was saved by Argentine goalkeeper Abendan Cherry. The best winger passed an early ball, and Robben inserted into the penalty area in time and scored the goal.

Real Madrid, leading by one goal, played more confidently. Getafe was only three points away from the relegation zone, so they could not accept the defeat and could only press it out.

The result is self-evident, Capello is the originator of defensive counterattack, Xia Qi, Robben, Higuain are fast horses, the game will soon be no suspense.

In the 80th minute, Xia Qi assisted Robben and scored another goal, 2:0!This score is also the final score.

When Real Madrid was advancing, the style of public opinion in La Liga changed suddenly.

In this round of La Liga, Barcelona once again bloodbathed Levante 5:1 at home, while Real Madrid defeated the relegated team Getafe in the second half with a difficult 2:0 victory.

The Western media paid tribute to Barcelona's new coach Guardiola, praising him for promoting youth players after taking over Barcelona, ​​abandoning Ronaldinho as the core, and supporting Harvey to the top.Deliberately belittle Real Madrid's confidence in fighting Real Madrid.

This is because most of the Western media, except for the pro-Real Madrid media, hope that Barcelona can rise up, reverse the league, and make the La Liga championship competition more intense, rather than riding the dust.

No one except Real Madrid would want the last round of La Liga to become a joke.

Of course Real Madrid is unwilling to lose their advantage in the league. Only by maintaining a leading edge in the league can they concentrate on playing well in the Champions League. There are no underdogs in the Champions League, and any carelessness will be disastrous.

When the Western media was advocating for Barcelona, ​​La Liga ushered in No. 20 six rounds.

In this round, Real Madrid challenged the relegation team Huelva away, but Barcelona's opponent was Atletico Madrid, which is ranked fourth in the league.

Some fans of Real Madrid are worried that Atletico Madrid, like last season, did not hesitate to lose to Barcelona with six goals at home without any resistance in order to prevent their city rivals.

Real Madrid almost failed to reverse the reversal. The Meilingers were not clear about the non-competitive spirit of their rivals in the same city, and did not expect sparks in the battle between the second and fourth.

However, the reality is very realistic. Atletico Madrid this season is expected to participate in the Champions League next season. How can it be a joke like last season?

Atletico Madrid coach Aguirre ordered closed training, and Aguero, the core of the team, also expressed his desire to beat Barcelona before the game.

In the final battle of focus, Aguero, who broke out strongly, beat Barcelona, ​​which was still in the running-in period, by himself. After falling behind by two goals, he scored twice to help the team equalize.

Then he assisted captain Rodriguez to overtake the score, and at the last minute he also made a penalty kick for Forlan to score.

Finally defeated the opponent 4:2!

City rivals Atletico Madrid helped Real Madrid get rid of the pursuer Barcelona, ​​and Real Madrid themselves did not lose the chain and got rid of Huelva in a thrilling 3:2 away game.

It was also a fantastic game.

Huelva's striker Cáceres took advantage of a mistake from Real Madrid's defense to open the scoring for the team, but Xia Qi's scalpel-style through ball tore Huelva's defense five minutes later.

Raul came out of the chaotic army to help the team equalize the score.

Since then, Real Madrid did not give the underdogs a chance, and Higuain scored the winning goal in the 75th minute after receiving a wonderful pass from Robben.

In the 90th minute, under the attack of the two sides, Xia Qi took the lead to pick the ball into the penalty area. Robben stopped the ball with his chest, turned around and single-handedly faced the goalkeeper with a low shot and scored.

Extending the score to 1:3, Velva took advantage of a direct free kick in stoppage time to score again, but there was no time to change Real Madrid's victory.

After this round of competition, Real Madrid and Basara once again opened the distance of 9 points!

Originally expected Real Madrid to collapse, Barcelona to catch up bravely, La Liga presents two dragons and two heroes fighting fiercely, the Western media hates Barcelona, ​​​​although they also know that the new coach of Barcelona has taken office, and the core of the team has changed from Ronaldinho to Ronaldinho. The era of Harvey and Xiaobai needs to be adjusted, but Real Madrid's great performance has disappointed the neutral media and fans.

The pro-Real Madrid media sang and danced to praise Real Madrid, praising the team for having a big heart that can withstand pressure and can hold at critical moments. This is the "Juanito spirit".

The ups and downs of La Liga no longer affect the hearts of Real Madrid. Capello is preparing to play against Roma at home. In the last game, he was almost tied by Roma with one less player in the rain. Now he is back at home.

Although Real Madrid has not lost at home this season, the former Red Wolf of the Seven Sisters made Capello, who knows everything, dare not take it lightly.

On March 3, Real Madrid played against Rome at home. Although everyone believed that Rome, which was in the sunset, could not beat Real Madrid, the Bernabéu stadium was still full of fans.

Winning and not changing teams, Capello still started the last round of the lineup, which made this year's king Robben and the young and aggressive Sneijder very dissatisfied, but Capello's prestige is too high, and he can only keep his dissatisfaction in his heart .

"Beep!"

Guessing before the game, Raul still didn't want the ball, and Roma launched the attack.

This season's unbeaten record at home gave Blancos the confidence that they are invincible. The whole team pressed the whole game as soon as they came up, and quickly broke the ball from Roma.

Not long after, Xia Qi and Kaka switched positions and disrupted Rome's defense. At that moment, Xia Qi made another diagonal pass with a scalpel.

Raul stuck the Roma defender sideways and scored the leading goal.

Xia Qi has not scored a goal in recent games but has assisted every game and the number of assists is steadily increasing, which does not count his indirect assists.

Xia Qi, who did not participate in the striker's cooperation, actively participated in the return defense, and Xia Qi's supplementary defense was still very effective.

This kind of Xia Qi has not been criticized by the head coach, the media, and teammates. On the contrary, everyone thinks that he is getting more and more mature. This kind of him is more helpful to the team and Real Madrid's offense and defense are more balanced.

In the words of Gazzetta dello Sport: "Real Madrid needs a core that can continuously bring victory to the team, not an engine that scores more goals than strikers."

At halftime, Real Madrid led 1:0 at halftime, which means that the total score led 4:2. Roma had to score three goals in the second half to eliminate Real Madrid. This is an almost impossible task at the Bernabéu Stadium.

The fans began to celebrate their ability to qualify for the Champions League.Capello was not so optimistic. During the half-time break, he used AC Milan as the negative teaching material of Istanbul Miracle Night in the locker room to warn the players to be careful.

This is indeed the case. Spalletti was not willing to give up the victory, so he made personnel adjustments.

This game was suspended due to Totti getting a red card in the last round. In this round, Vucinic, who performed very well in the previous game, was the single arrow. Now the score is behind. Spalletti replaced Pizarro. The famous defensive midfielder Perotta.

As the saying goes, changing players is like changing a knife. In the 70th minute, Pizarro took a free kick, and Vucinic seized the opportunity to push the ball into the gate guarded by Iker Casillas.

The Roma players who scored a goal suddenly boosted their morale, and they didn't even celebrate the goal. They ran into the goal, fished out the ball and demanded to continue the game.

With two more goals to go, they had no time to celebrate.With the thought and courage that I want to advance and I want to eliminate Real Madrid, Roma has attacked Real Madrid's defense time and time again.

Shaolin monk Pepe paid the price for his own rough and brutal defense. He received a second yellow card in the 83rd minute. Two yellow cards turned into one red and he was sent off. He missed the next round of the Champions League (does not affect the league).

However, Real Madrid is bloody in their own home court. Here they can not only get enough fans to applaud and cheer, but also have a very familiarity with the playing field.

To put it a bit exaggeratedly, they can freely dribble the ball with their eyes closed at home, and can judge the angle between themselves and the goal behind them by looking at the positions of the stands on both sides and their own goal with their backs to the goal. To put it simply, they don’t need to turn around. Also know where the opponent's goal is.

After Pepe's end, Capello did not hesitate to replace the famous Kaka with Baptista.This substitution has the effect of turning decay into magic.

After one point, Pizarro broke through from the side and was pushed all the way to the bottom line by the teenager Baptista. Pizarro wanted to kick the ball on his leg for a corner kick.

The idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel!
The ball hit Baptista's leg and he subtly relieved him a few times. The ball rebounded not far and was hooked back with his left foot.

If Pizarro steals a chicken, he will lose money!

Baptista seized the opportunity to fight back against Roma, and the ball passed through De Rossi in the Roma midfielder to Xia Qi's feet.

Xia Qi stepped on the bull's tail and passed the Roman defender Juan. Seeing that the situation was not good, Cicinho wanted to make a technical foul.

Xia Qi shoveled towards Xia Qi's ankle at the top of the arc in the penalty area. Xia Qi was also very sure of the free kick in this position, but after seeing Cicinho, Xia Qi was the goalkeeper Doni.

Unwilling to take a free kick, he gritted his teeth, stabilized his staggering body, and wobbly dribbled the ball into the penalty area.

The home fans stood up and cheered for Xia Qi's bravery and instant decisiveness.

The commentator George also commented passionately: "Xia Qi was unwilling to accept a free kick. He wobbled into the penalty area and faced the goalkeeper single-handedly."

Xia Qi held the ball in front of Doni, pulled him to the left as if he was going to pass the goalkeeper and then shoot.

"Xia Qi pulls the ball and wants to shoot like Ronaldo!" George explained.

Doni thought so too, he quickly moved his position, at this moment Xia Qi suddenly took a shot and shot into Doni's earliest position.

"Beautiful feint, Doni was deceived." George explained again.

2:1!Real Madrid made the total score 5:3, still leading by two goals, with three away goals, while Roma trailed by two goals and only had one away goal. If Roma can score two more goals in the remaining 6 minutes, The two sides are about to play a play-off.

But time was running out, and the referee added 3 minutes of added time. With nearly 10 minutes left, Roma let out a sigh of relief and did not make a decent attack.

Real Madrid got their wish and advanced to the quarterfinals.The teams that have advanced are: Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Fenerbahce, Shaker 04.

Among them, Fenerbahce eliminated Sevilla and Shaker 04 eliminated Porto. These two games were shocking upsets.

Quarter-final opponents will be drawn on March 3 at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.

This time the Champions League quarter-finals also confirmed that the Premier League is the world's number one league.
