Chapter 838 - Strong Serie A

The process of breaking the deadlock was as follows: Prime Minister Napoli's midfielder Hamsik suddenly passed the ball to the wing, and Alain, who was on the wing, pretended to break through with the ball, and suddenly crossed the ball, and the ball rolled to the feet of Hamsik, who was catching up.

Hamsik received the ball and immediately sent a through ball to Mertens in the box, who smashed into the Bremen penalty area, and under the opponent's defense, he did not choose to shoot, but suddenly knocked the ball back.

Jiang Chen, who followed up in the middle, squeezed away the defenders with his strong body, and then directly slammed his legs and shot hard, and the football flew into the goal of the Bremen team like a cannonball, and the goalkeeper of the Bremen team had no way at all.

At 1-0, Napoli scored a goal in the fifteenth minute of the first half of the game to extend the aggregate score to four to two, and this time, Bremen's hope of advancing was even slimmer.

Seeing this situation, the head coach of the Bremen team couldn't sit still, he immediately came to the sidelines, loudly reminded the players of the Bremen team, and signaled the players of the Bremen team to attack, if they did not attack again, they would have no chance at all.

Bremen immediately launched Mad Dog Mode and began a frantic attack, hoping to score a goal as soon as possible to stabilize the morale of the team.

Bremen pressed hard and their own backline was too open for Napoli to grab.

In the midfield, Hamsik found that there was no space after breaking the ball, he directly stuffed the ball and stuffed the football to Jiang Chen, who was inserted forward, Jiang Chen leaned on the defender, and then suddenly passed the football horizontally, and the football rolled to the feet of Mertens.

Mertens was not polite, and swept the ball directly into the Bremen goal, and the score was 2-0.

At this time, the total score of the two sides has become five to two, and at this time, the death sentence of the Bremen team has basically been announced, and they are finished.

And at this time, the guests of the draw drew a team that became the opponent of Real Madrid, and this team was not Napoli, but Copenhagen, the big dark horse from the Danish Super League.

This made the players and fans of the Napoli team exhale, and secretly said that it was okay, Real Madrid's strength was very good, and they didn't want to meet Real Madrid at this time.

Seeing that Real Madrid and Copenhagen were drawn, the other six teams were even more nervous, and the rest of the teams were not bad, and they all stared at the draw with bated breath.
