Chapter 098: Masterclass Performance (Second Update)

For Basel, the previous best result in the Champions League was to reach the round of 16, and they have never reached the last eight.

For Malaga, this season's Champions League is the club's first trip to the Champions League in its history.

Until 2010, Malaga was only a middle and lower league team in La Liga, until Qatari Sheikh Abdullah Al Thani injected money into Malaga in 2010, the team has strengthened the team year by year in the transfer market by buying people, and now Málaga ranks 7th in La Liga in terms of total player value, with a total valuation of more than 100 million euros. It can be said that the stars are brilliant, and all kinds of stars gather.

Last season, the team finished fourth in the league and in the 2012/2013 Champions League play-offs, they made it to the Champions League with a 2-0 win over Greek giants Panathinachs with goals from Demichelis and Eliseu at home.

Then in the Champions League group stage, he also performed well and successfully reached the round of 16.

And in the quarterfinals, they met a soft persimmon Basel, and their hopes of promotion were greatly increased.

Of course, in Basel's eyes, Málaga is also a relatively acceptable and weak opponent in the round of 16.

……

Obviously, both sides think that the other side is one of the weakest opponents they can draw, and in their opinion, this is the perfect opportunity for the team to make history and reach the quarter-finals, so the players on both sides fought fiercely.

From the whole first half of this game, it can be said that it is full of gunpowder.

In the fifteenth minute, Basel defender Fabian . Frey made a big tackle and brought down Isco and received a yellow card.

This caused a strong discontent among the players in Malaga, who believed that the foul Basel player should be sent off with a red card.

Salah was then brought to the ground by Tulalang and the referee verbally warned the Frenchman.

A few minutes later, Jiang Chenxi combined with Salah in the front, he passed the ball to Salah, and just as he was about to turn and run, he was attacked by Malaga midfielder Ignacio. Camacho fell to the ground.

This is the third time Jiang Chenxi has been brought down since the start of the game.

Referee Webb's whistle sounded again, this time showing a yellow card to Malaga midfielder Camacho.

……

"Obviously, whether it is Basel or Malaga, they pay special attention to the defense of the opponent's core players Isco and Jiang Chenxi." He Wei said, "The players on both sides are moving bigger. ”

He didn't finish speaking.

Basel's free-kick, it was a tactical free-kick, David. Degen played the ball wide and Salah's pass was headed out of the box by opposition defender Antunes.

Malaga hit the counter-attack.

After Isco got the ball, a beautiful circle changed direction past Fabian. Frei then passed the ball to Baptista, who was just about to pick up speed when he was tackled to the ground by Cabrral.

When the referee's whistle sounded, Baptista rolled over and rushed up from the ground and pressed against Cabral's forehead!

Cabral is also not a good person, he does not show weakness to the head of the other party, the two of them talk trash talk in their mouths, eager to bite off a piece of each other's meat.

……

It's like a fuse, a signal for battle!

Players from both sides immediately swarmed in.

Pushing and shoving, persuading and fighting, trash talk in his mouth, or taking advantage of the fact that there are many people, Jiang Chenxi saw David. Degen stealthily poked Joaquín somewhere in the buttocks, while Malaga defender Sanchez accidentally touched Gilles. The crotch of the yuppie.

The referee, who was very experienced, rushed straight at him, shouted at him, and then gave Baptista and Cabral a yellow card.

The overheated minds of both sides quickly cooled down, looked at each other stupidly, and spread out.

"If it were a different referee, it would be more than just two yellow cards for each of the 50 boards." He Wei said.

"That's, hey, hey, hey." Zhang Lu said, "In the Premier League, Weber has seen more and experienced scenes than this. ”

……

In the ensuing game, the movements of the two sides were slightly restrained, but there was still frequent physical contact, and the scene was hot.

Although there has been no goal, the audience and fans who watched it were very enjoyable.

'This is the knockout stage of the Champions League.' He Wei sighed and said, "Even if it's not a showdown between giants, it's still very exciting." ”

On the sidelines, Malaga coach Manuel Pellegrini frowned as he glanced at the visitors' dugout, the German coach who surprised him.

Obviously, Basel deliberately played so 'violently' today, and used this somewhat rough style of play to drive the players of Málaga into this rhythm of hand-to-hand combat.

Manuel Pellegrini's Malaga was fast and fluid, but now ......

The team of the technical genre rolls up its sleeves and fights hand-to-hand, which falls directly into the rhythm of the opponent.

And...... Looking at the English referee Webber in this game, Pellegrini's heart sank.

Obviously, the opponent also took the referee factor into account, this famous whistle from the Premier League, because of the long-term law enforcement of the Premier League's formation habits, he is very lenient about this kind of physical contact punishment.

……

Forty-four minutes into the game, Malaga passed the ball in midfield, Isco broke through with the ball, and he passed Gilles. Yappie, ignoring the request for Baptista to raise his hand, continued to dribble the ball and dipped past Fabian. Frey, however, Isco, who was still going to carry the ball, looked up and saw a figure rushing in front of him!

Caught off guard, Isco was suddenly robbed by Alexander. Dragovic steals and Basel launches a quick counter-attack.

Velocity!

This time Basel's counterattack suddenly accelerated!

The ball only went through three passes to the front.

As soon as Jiang Chenxi received the ball, Demichelis rushed up.

……

The task that Pellegrini gave to this Argentine favorite general was to keep an eye on Jiang Chenxi!

After watching the game analysis video, Demichelis also raised his vigilance and did not dare to be careless.

Although Jiang Chenxi didn't get any good shooting opportunities before, he didn't dare to underestimate this person.

He stared at Jiang Chenxi's feet and did not move.

Jiang Chenxi didn't let the football delay under his feet, he passed the football directly.

After passing the ball, he accelerated past Demichelis, who could only quickly turn around and chase after him.

……

The football that was divided by Jiang Chenxi quickly spread to the side.

Salah won the ball, he directly accelerated and changed direction, past Malaga left-back Antunes, and then crossed with his feet!

Jiang Chenxi slapped his horse at this time and appeared at the front point!

"Jiang! —" The Swiss commentator Hansen shouted suddenly.

The boos in the stands of the Rose Garden Stadium in Malaga suddenly stopped at this moment: seeing the opponent's top scorer at this moment, there was almost no one to mark, and all the Malaga fans were frightened.

What about Demichelis?!

What about our defenders?!

Demichelis hurriedly returned to the defense at this time, and he pounced directly!

Jiang Chenxi faced the falling football, raised his right foot, and unloaded the football from the air that Salah had come!

……

"Beautiful!" He Wei suddenly shouted, "Yingying is unloaded, a new world!" ”

"Master's stop!" Zhang Lu was also excited, and shouted, "Demichelis is risky!" ”

"Perfect stop!"

"Even stopped!"

Commentators from various countries are also excited to do so at this moment.

Jiang Chenxi's stop is very appropriate and exciting!

This stop just allowed Demichelis to rush over!

Then, Jiang Chenxi didn't wait for the football to land, and then lifted his right foot and volleyed directly!

The soccer ball suddenly arced and flew towards the goal!

With such a close-range shot, Malaga goalkeeper Caballero didn't even have time to make a save, the football had already swept past his side and spun into the net behind him!
