This year, UEFA's Champions League best is not much of a suspense.

Yang Yang led Liverpool to a quadruple title and swept the limelight across European football, he is widely recognized as the best player by all, and no one would believe that this award will be left behind.

Unless, UEFA wants to smash its own signboard.

The best goalkeeper went to Manchester United's Edwin van der Sar, with the Dutchman veteran breaking the myth of Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech and becoming the best in Europe.

In contrast, whether it is Liverpool's Reina or Barcelona's Barders, they are still much inferior in terms of stability and cannot compete with Van der Sar at all.

The best defender went to Chelsea's centre-back John Terry, which was a rather surprising result, but again, Liverpool's defenders are still slightly inferior in terms of defensive stability, while Barcelona is mainly good at passing the ball in midfield, and there is really no defender like Terry.

However, the best midfielder was different, and the competition was fierce, and in the end, it was Barcelona's Xavi who beat Liverpool's Steven Gerrard, Xavi Alonso and team-mate Andres Iniesta to win the award and become the best midfielder in last season's Champions League.

As for the last and least suspenseful two awards, the best striker and the best player in the finale, they were both awarded to Yang Yang, who previously played for Liverpool but now plays for Real Madrid.

Yang Yang came to the stage to accept the award one after another, and when he delivered his speech, he specially thanked the players of his old club Liverpool, and said that he will always remember his life and games in Liverpool, and he will also cherish the friendship with Liverpool players.

Although Yang Yang never mentioned it to the outside world, Gerrard himself knew very well that although Yang Yang wanted to leave, he was somewhat forced to leave by the club's financial situation, so he did not have any dissatisfaction with Yang Yang's transfer.

At the Grimaldi Convention Center in Monaco, Gerrard was honored to see Yang Yang win two awards, and after Yang Yang received the award and stepped down, he excitedly hugged this friend who had been fighting side by side for three years.

……

Unlike the best award, the draw for the Champions League group stage has scared the representatives of the 32 teams, especially the six non-La Liga seeds, none of whom want to touch Real Madrid.

In the end, though, it was AC Milan who were unlucky.

The Rossoneri were unlucky to draw Real Madrid in the draw, followed by Ligue 1 powerhouse Marseille in pot 3 and Zurich in Switzerland in pot 4.

This also satisfies the expectations of the outside world, because before the draw, major media have speculated that Real Madrid will either draw AC Milan or Liverpool, the reason is very simple, the superstar encountered his old club in the Champions League after the transfer, which is also a full attraction.

Finally, Kaka is about to return to the San Siro to challenge his former club.

Real Madrid has invested heavily in this summer, the overall strength has improved significantly, and it is not difficult to advance to the group.

The only suspense is Marseille, a Ligue 1 side with a lot of quality, and this summer they also brought in powerful stars such as Bordeaux's Diawara and Porto's Gonzalez, and Marseille themselves are also bent on preparing for the Champions League.

It is unlikely that Marseille wants to subvert the two giants, but the Ligue 1 team definitely has the strength to disrupt the situation.

What's more, Real Madrid, AC Milan and Marseille have all won the Champions League, with former Real Madrid stars Morientes and Heinze currently playing for Marseille, Huntelaar playing for AC Milan, as well as former Barcelona superstar Ronaldinho and Brazilian talent Pato, all currently in the Rossoneri.

Therefore, the group in which Real Madrid is located is also full of highlights.

……

After the draw results were released, Yang Yang said in an interview with the media that Real Madrid was able to draw such a draw with a second-tier team, which was not bad, but it was not good.

'The truth is that we don't care who we draw because for us it's all the same, we have to do everything we can to get out of the group, no matter who we are, we have to try to put in every game and try to win.'

"AC Milan, Marseille and Zurich are all strong teams, but I would say Real Madrid is also strong this year."

Yang Yang's words also seem to have been confirmed by the outside world.

After the draw was announced, the famous European bookmaker Mustwin offered the odds to win the Champions League round of 32, Real Madrid ranked first with 4.25, followed by Barcelona with 5.0, and then Chelsea at 7.0 and Manchester United at 9.0.

Liverpool have been poached this season with only 13.0 points, tied for sixth with Inter Milan.

Clearly, everyone is very optimistic about the star-studded Real Madrid.

But the key is whether Benitez can quickly integrate the team in the shortest possible time and create a rigorous and stable whole.

…………

…………

On the evening of August 29, twenty o'clock sharp.

09-10 season, La Liga opener, Real Madrid hosts Deportivo La Coruna.

This is the first official match of the superstar Real Madrid at home after the reorganization, and this game also has a special meaning, that is, the holder of the 100m world record, Usain Bolt, came to the scene to kick off for both sides.

Rafa Benitez made some changes to the squad for this game.

The goalkeeper is Casillas, the back line is Maxwell, Pepe, Ramos and Arbeloa, the midfield double is Xavi Alonso and Mascherano, Kaka is up front, Yang Yang is on the left, Ibrahimovic occupies the middle, and Raul is on the right.

Benitez arranged Raul to start and replace Robben, the purpose is also very clear, after all, this is the first game of the new season, with an experienced veteran like Raul, and at the same time the captain of the team, it can stabilize the morale of the army.

As the world-famous Mr. 100 million euros, Yang Yang's presence has naturally become the most feared area of opponents, right wingback Laure, full-back Luca, and even defensive midfielder Juan Rodriguez, the three of them stand in a triangle, almost firmly locking Yang Yang on the side.

Deportivo La Coruna's strategy is also extremely clear, to restrain Yang Yang no matter what.

Just three minutes into the game, Luka received a yellow card for a foul when he retreated to defend Yang Yang.

However, Yang Yang's direct free kick was slightly off the line and failed to pose a threat.

But in the following minutes, under the active instigation of Yang Yang, Real Madrid won four corners in a row, but none of them could form a threat, and it was not until the ninth minute that Real Madrid created a real threat for the first time since the opening period.

Yang Yang took the ball on the left side to plan the offensive, Maxwell stepped in to participate in the attack, and after receiving Yang Yang's pass, he passed diagonally to the penalty area.

Ibrahimovic masterfully ran to the right side of the penalty spot and stopped the ball with his chest, and Raul was extremely clever and rushed straight to the goal.

But the shot hit the left-hand post and bounced off.

Then Real Madrid got another corner, and it was Raul's shot from inside the box that was blocked by a Deportivo defender.

After the opening continuous attack, Real Madrid almost suppressed Deportivo in the half.

……

Yang Yang had a lot of feelings on the court.

Deportivo La Coruna is not a weak team, even in European football, it was once a strong team that could go toe-to-toe with AC Milan.

But such a strong team, when facing Real Madrid, was suppressed and couldn't move.

Not only that, but Real Madrid also continue to create chances.

This situation has not been experienced before in Yang Yang's career, from Ajax to Liverpool, and now to Real Madrid, Yang Yang feels that his teammates around him are getting stronger and stronger, and the overall competitiveness of the team is getting better and better.

So good that he even had the illusion that the ball would come to his feet as soon as he ran out of space.

And that's exactly what happened.

The ball passed from Raul on the right and back to Arbeloa, who crossed diagonally into the box, Ibrahimovic blocked the opposition centre-back with his body, stopped the ball, and then passed it back to Kaka, who came in to pick it up.

As soon as the Brazilian stopped the ball, he looked to the left and immediately sent the ball to the left side of the penalty spot.

At this time, Yang Yang was like a ghost, I don't know when he suddenly appeared in this position, the entire left half of the goal of Deportivo was exposed in front of him, his left foot stopped, his right foot pushed, and the ball went in!!!

“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL！！！！！！”

"In the sixteenth minute, Yang Yang, who represented Real Madrid in La Liga for the first time, scored his first La Liga goal and opened the scoring for Real Madrid, 1-0!"

"It was also the first goal in La Liga this season!"

In the cheers of the whole stadium, more than 80,000 Real Madrid fans stood up and cheered for Yang Yang's goal.

The Real Madrid fans in the stadium were shouting Yang Yang's name.

This is the first time Yang Yang has let his name fly over the Bernabeu.

……

After conceding a goal, Deportivo also showed a rare blood, began to organize a counterattack, and planned a wave of attack in the first minute, striker Ricky hit a long-range shot, which was pounced on by Casillas.

After the Real Madrid goalkeeper got up from the ground, he looked up and kicked the ball forward with a big kick.

Deportivo La Coruna's backline was pressed too high, and Casillas's big foot drove directly behind the opposition defence.

Ibrahimovic and the opposing centre-back both rushed towards the ball at the same time.

The Swedish centre-forward is also eager to score on his debut and prove himself as one of the best centre-forwards in the world.

But when it was about to catch up with the ball at the edge of the penalty area, Deportivo goalkeeper Alan Subia made a decisive attack, rushed out of the penalty area, and cleared the ball directly with his feet.

In a hurry, in order to avoid Ibrahimovic, who was rushing head-on, Alan Subia chose to kick the ball to his right, that is, to the left side of Real Madrid, in order to find Laure.

The ball came to the middle circle, but before Laurey could catch the ball, Yang Yang had already taken the lead, he didn't even stop, and directly faced the incoming ball, which was a big foot.

Only a bang was heard at the scene, and the ball was seen flying out from under Yang Yang's feet and falling towards the goal that had long been unguarded.
