After the match, Worrall praised both Zheng Zhi and Ballack.

"There's been a lot of talk about both of them lately, and today we should know the results, and in fact, the two of them are not just complementary, but they can both do the same great job."

"Zheng and Michael are both the best midfielders in football at the moment, and they are unbelievable."

"I would like to use 'incomparable' to describe what Zheng Zhi and Michael have done for Bayer Leverkusen. ”

"I can't find anyone else with the quality of Zheng and Michael, who are really amazing football talents."

Worrall did not favor one over the other, and he praised Zheng Zhi and Barak at the same time.

"Rudy, is it because Zheng feels threatened by Ballack that he changed his style of play?"

"Nothing."

"I said before the game that they are like brothers. Both of them were in good form today, so the performance in the attacking end came out naturally, and I don't know when they scored and when they provided assists. That's where they come in. So whoever wants to destroy our midfield, it's almost impossible because we have two engines. ”

Two engines? Two engines? Two cores?

That's really powerful. A team should have only one core, but Bayer Leverkusen now has two.

When the media and fans argue about who is the core, the two of them can actually coexist, not exclude.

It's like the four Milan No.10s that Carlo Ancelotti later created, and they can play together on the pitch, unlike the Argentine Olympic Games, where Riquelme, Aimar and D'Alessandro can't coexist.

Worrall was happy, as if he saw that Bayer Leverkusen could sweep Germany and sweep Europe.

He can't even wait for the next Champions Cup match, but it's a damn international game this weekend.

……

……

On this night, the European Cup was in full swing.

Two hours later, Lazio made a big splash at Roma as they beat Maribo 4-0 at home, scoring goals from Inzaghi Jr., Conceição and Salas, who scored twice.

Although the two sides are tied on seven points, Bayer Leverkusen are still in second place due to Lazio's dominance in terms of head-to-head records.

Bayern Munich were not so good, they played quite badly at home.

Valencia attacked Bayern Munich from a goal down, and as a result, after 20 shots on goal, they drew 1-1 with Bayern Munich thanks to a goal from Argentine striker Lopes, scoring an important point and accumulating five points to maintain the top spot.

Bayern had a disappointing start to the season in the German Bundesliga, sitting in fifth place, and the same was true in the Champions League, with eight goals in seven games across all competitions showing their lack of attacking power.

After the match, the German media compared the two teams and came up with completely different results.

Kicker: This week was hell for Bayern, with the 1-1 defeat in the Champions Cup making it clear that they are not the champions of the Champions League. 20 shots on goal at home by Valencia at home is unthinkable. As for Bayer Leverkusen, they continue to show great strength, the same Dynamo Kyiv, Bayern Munich was exhausted last season and almost capsized in the gutter, and Bayer Leverkusen gave them 5-0. With Mateus' departure, Effenberg has a long way to go, and Leverkusen's Chinese Zheng and Ballack have set sail steadily.

Bild: Bayer Leverkusen are now Germany's ambassador in the Champions Cup, no longer Bayern Munich, no longer Borussia Dortmund.

In addition to the German media, many European media mentioned Leverkusen. There is no way, Leverkusen is sharp, and the strength shown is too strong.

After their match, the famous spinach companies in Europe have adjusted their odds to win the championship and have risen directly to fourth place!

,

Bayer Leverkusen have no history in the Champions League and no glory. Being able to rank fourth shows that their strength is indeed terrifying.

Even Spain's Marca newspaper bluntly stated that Bayer Leverkusen are already a force to be reckoned with, and their goal is definitely not just for the group stage. Of all the games played on Thursday, their scores were the most terrifying. I don't believe that the strength of Dynamo Kyiv is really weak to such a point, on the contrary, but Leverkusen is terrible.

The Times in England took a similar view – two young men had changed Leverkusen, and the rise of Zheng and Ballack in China had to turn our attention to Germany again. Needless to say, the excellence of both of them is still needless to say, and it is difficult for any team to win against them.

Italy's, however, were dismissed by the media.

"Milan Sport" said: "It is not denied that China's Zheng and Ballack led Bayer Leverkusen to play an excellent game, but this does not mean anything, in the Champions Cup on a stage like the Champions League genes are needed, and after the knockout round, everything really begins." ”

It was also reported by Torino Sport, who criticised Juventus and mentioned Zheng Zhi. After reaching the Champions League final for three years in a row, Juventus has fallen silent. This year, he was not even able to participate in the Champions Cup. Juventus needs to exchange blood if fresh blood. If Zheng Zhi can be poached to Juventus, with Zidane in front and Zheng Zhi in the back, Juventus will definitely make a difference.

However, "Roma Sport" immediately ridiculed - with the world's No. 1 midfielder Zidane, what more does Juventus want? They are just at home, and when they get to Europe, they are nothing. Buy Chinese Zheng? Moggie did want to, but he was too picky to spend money. He is willing to give Harvey 30 million, but he is only willing to give Zheng 20 million?

Another Spanish newspaper, "Le Monde Sport", also mentioned Zheng Zhi - Barcelona was held to a 1-1 draw by Arsenal at home, and the biggest problem was that Pep Guardiola was targeted, and Xavi, who had high hopes, failed to provide any help. To put hope in Xavi, it is better to poach the Chinese from Leverkusen. And Guardiola is old, it's time for a bloodbath. If Harvey is worth $30 million, why not sell him and buy the Chinese?

If you want to cash out Harvey to buy Zheng Zhi, this idea is not bad.

Indeed, Barcelona played a very depressed game, the core of Pep Guardiola was surrounded, no one helped him, and Xavi, who was expected to come on as a substitute, had no effect, but because of his indirect error, Suker equalized.

Le Monde Sport now dislikes Xavi and even Pep Guardiola. And the target is actually Zheng Zhi.

However, coach Louis van Gaal spoke after watching the news.

"Europe's top soccer league is like the NBA in the United States, where you want to dominate with a good main lineup, but also have a bench that is not inferior. It is precisely because of this consideration that Barcelona has been focusing on the development of the reserve team for many years, investing huge financial resources, so that its substitutes sitting on the bench are red and frightened by opponents. ”

'If we dismiss a talented young man like Xavi, we are negating the club's original strategy.

"It's impossible."

"All we need is time, time for these young people to grow to their fullest."

"Instead of buying a player on the transfer market. There is no single player who can save Barcelona, unless that person is Maradona, then there is only one Maradona. ”

In words, he rejected Zheng Zhi.
