Start with an extraordinary experience card

Chapter 127
"Thank you! I just want to get back on the court sooner."

For Qin Ming's praise, Coutinho was very indifferent.

"Did the doctor say when you will be able to participate in the competition?"

Looking at the relaxed Coutinho, Qin Ming asked with concern.

Since Griezmann left the team on loan, Barcelona's lineup has seemed a bit thin.

If Coutinho can return to the team as soon as possible, it must be exciting and good news.

"Hurry up, the doctor is not sure, we still have to see the effect of the follow-up rehabilitation training!"

"Speaking of which, Qin, why did you appear in this place? At this time, shouldn't you be preparing for tomorrow's game?"

Regarding his illness, Coutinho didn't seem to want to have too much discussion with Qin Ming, so he naturally changed the subject.

"Tsk, no way"

Qin Ming pouted his mouth and made a helpless expression.

"The team doctor thought my thigh muscles were slightly fatigued, and I couldn't get permission from him to play!"

Listening to Qin Ming's explanation, Coutinho nodded.

"That's right, you are the most important offensive player in the team now! In the Champions League match against Manchester United, the team cannot live without you!"

"Hey! Seriously, even if I recover in time, I don't know if there is still a place for me in the team!"

Coutinho's slightly playful emotion made the conversation between the two suddenly cold.

Qin Ming didn't know much about the Brazilian in front of him.He really didn't know how to continue with this talk.

The two looked at each other in silence for a while, then Coutinho made an excuse and left the rehabilitation training room.

Looking at Coutinho's walking back when he left, Qin Ming was filled with emotion.

After Messi and Griezmann left the team, Coutinho ranked among the first echelon of Barcelona players' annual salary with a salary of 1500 million euros.

At present, in the team, only Depay (1800 million euros) who joined freely and De Jong (1600 million euros), the core midfielder, have a total salary above him.

With such a high salary, but still able to strive for an early comeback in the face of injuries, Coutinho's professionalism is stronger than many people.

After all, he can stick to the most conservative plan and strive for the best treatment effect.

Even if he is still lying in a hospital bed, no one can blame his choices.

However, in order to be able to return to the team as soon as possible, he continued to make great efforts.

Thinking of this, Qin Ming still had a hint of luck in his heart that he wanted to be lazy, and it disappeared into the air with Coutinho's back.

The movements in his hands continued to speed up, and Qin Ming also started to move around on the training equipment.

After all, it's just a team that came back from West Second Division. Without any major signings, the Spaniard's strength is not enough to pose a threat to Barcelona.

In addition to the absence of Qin Ming in this game, Rangnick also arranged for Bald and Braithwaite to start, while Alba and Aguero took turns on the bench.

Although the game lasted until the 70th minute or so, the two main players were replaced by Rangnick one after another.

In the end, with the goals of Braithwaite and Depay in the first half of the game, Barcelona defeated the Spaniard 2:1 thrillingly and scored a valuable three points at the Cornella-El Prat Stadium!
As this Catalan derby came to an end, the gap between Barcelona and the top Atletico Madrid remained at eight points!
Although there are 15 rounds left in La Liga, Atletico Madrid's lead has been established clearly enough!
If nothing unexpected happens, it will be difficult for Barcelona to have a chance to compete for the La Liga championship this season.

Because behind Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid, which is only 3 points behind, is still chasing.

There is not only one mountain that Barcelona needs to cross!
For the Barcelona club, the importance of the Champions League is self-evident.

On the second day after the end of the derby in the same city, the whole Barcelona team started to prepare for the first round match against Manchester United without stopping.

"The UEFA Champions League is a stage that clubs all over Europe dream of entering! As a cup competition, the difference between it and La Liga is not small."

In Barcelona's current lineup, substitute teenagers such as Qin Ming, Menino, and Bard have zero experience in the Champions League.

In order to solve this problem, Rangnick gathered the whole team and held a pre-match preparation meeting for the Champions League.

"Pique, as the captain of the team, I hope you can share your thoughts on this competition for those teammates who have no experience in the Champions League!"

In the Barcelona team, Pique has the most experience in the Champions League, and Rangnick directly named him.

"As a cup competition, the most special feature of the Champions League is the double-round knockout system!"

"When the score is the same in the two rounds, the team with the most away goals will be eligible to advance to the next round!"

In the process of speaking, Pique always maintained a very serious expression, which was quite different from his usual image in front of everyone.

"It is precisely because of such a special rule that away goals are more important in the Champions League knockout rounds!"

"This also makes many teams often choose a more open offensive strategy when playing away games to try to get more away goals."

"I believe our next opponent, Manchester United, will be no exception!"

"So next, at Camp Nou, our home ground, we need to put more energy in defense!"

Before Pique finished speaking, Rangnick interjected:
"Pique is right, but this does not mean that we have to sacrifice the quality of offense as a premise! Everyone, for the next game, I hope you can show more dedication in all aspects!!"

After Rangnick finished speaking, he gave Pique a gesture to continue, and Pique nodded.

"In addition, the teams participating in the Champions League are all the best in the major European leagues, and they all have their own tactical systems that they are good at!"

"So, no matter who the opponent is, no matter how big the lead is, until the end of the game, we must not take it lightly!"

"Otherwise, the opponent will definitely let you taste the pain!"

Having said that, a bitterness appeared on Pique's face.

In recent years, in the UEFA Champions League, Barcelona has repeatedly led by a large score in the first round and was reversed in the second round.

4:1 victory over Roma at home, reversed 3:0 away!

3:0 victory over Liverpool at home, reversed 4:0 away!

In the knockout round of the Champions League, Barcelona contributed several famous scenes, and was also dubbed "Ou Ni Jiang" by the fans.

For Pique, this is obviously not a good memory.
