"Victory! Only victory can wash away the shame! ”

These are Jiang Chenxi's words to his teammates in the locker room at St. Jacobs Park.

With more than ten minutes to go, head coach Hawky . Vogel has completed the final tactical briefing and presentation.

Now it's time for the captain's pre-war mobilization.

Yes, Jiang Chenxi is the captain of Basel today.

……

The team's first captain Alexander. Frei continued to be sidelined with injury, and the team's second captain in this game, Rasdoraf. Mateo Kovac is suspended for a red card, and the team's third captain, goalkeeper Sommer, has a cold and will also miss the game.

Head Coach Hawkey. Vogel named Jiang Chenxi as the team's captain today, which also won the support of the whole team.

This 20-year-old Chinese player has won the trust and support of the whole team with his outstanding performance.

"The past can only represent the past, not the present! As long as we all want to win, there is hope for this game! But as long as one person doesn't want to win, it's all over! Jiang Chenxi's face was serious, and he warned everyone that this game must work together.

Head Coach Hawkey. Vogel and members of the coaching staff, as well as club manager Kent Brown. Hasler and the others looked at this scene with embarrassment.

This is the first time that the 20-year-old has worn the captain's armband, which is to face a strong opponent like Barcelona in the face of a heavy defeat in the first leg, but looking at Jiang Chenxi's performance, it is like a real leader.

"He has the temperament of a leader in him." Hasler said.

"We've got nowhere to go, guys! This game is only desperate! Jiang Chenxi raised his arms and roared, "Guys! Win the game, I'm in for a treat! ”

After a round of applause.

The door to the locker room was pushed open.

Jiang Chenxi took the lead, and everyone rushed out.

……

Jiang Chenxi and Salah stood in the corridor of the players at St. Jakob's Park stadium one after the other, waiting to play. As soon as they lined up, the Barcelona players came up from behind, their expressions relaxed, their smiles on their faces, and their whispers.

Jiang Chenxi's expression was extremely solemn.

He's done everything he can.

It is not easy to use 'small means of stimulation' and give a speech to make the whole team muster up the courage to stand here and challenge the overlord.

Of course, he also knows that the momentum of the team is only temporary, and once the game starts and suffers a major blow, the fighting spirit that has been hard to lift may collapse.

Jiang Chenxi knows all this!

The most effective way to boost morale is never a piece of sensationalism, and a few stimulus can do, everyone is a player, and everyone has their own mind.

What can really boost morale is to show teammates with practical actions: we can win!

We can!

At this time, Basel head coach Hawky Brown, who had arrived in the coach's seat. Vogel also had a solemn expression: In this game, the most important thing for Basel is that Barcelona will never be able to score easily!

As long as Barcelona are unable to score, the morale of the whole Basel team will be getting higher and higher.

……

'The players from both sides are coming on the pitch and we'll take a look at the starting line-ups for both sides today. He Wei said.

Basel (4-5-1):

Goalkeeper: No. 33 Germano. Valati;

Defender: No. 29 Marcus. Steinhofer, No. 6 Alexander. Dragovich, No. 26 Gast. Langsoreau, No. 3 Park Joo-ho;

Midfielder: No. 20 Fabian. Frey, No. 7 David. Degen, No. 4 Cabral, No. 19 Mohammed. Elneny, No. 22 Mohammed. Salah;

Forward: No. 27 Jiang Chenxi;

'Basel goalkeeper Sommer has a cold, and it is the team's number two goalkeeper who starts today, Valati, while Egyptian defender Elneny, who was brought in from Arsenal in the winter, has his first appearance in the Champions League today.

"Frei, Elneny, Cabrral, Basel played three very defensive midfielders, in addition, David . Degen is also good both offensively and defensively, and it is clear that in this game, Basel must first stand on defense. Zhang Lu said.

……

In the coach's seat, Barcelona coach Vilanova has just got Basel's starting list, and a smile appeared on his face, Basel wants to pile up the back in the midfield to strengthen the defense, which in itself is a plan to show weakness and avoid a fiasco, but they still screamed before the game and behaved so toughly, as if they wanted revenge.

Vilanova chuckled and shook his head, and didn't pay attention to it, this game, Barcelona is basically going through the motions, the score of 4-0 in the first leg has decided everything, even if this game can't win big, it is acceptable, there is no need to fight with the Swiss.

If Basel's midfield is too aggressive, he will have to consider reminding his players not to get hurt.

This game doesn't need much attention, now it's time to think about the semi-finals, Barcelona's goal is to return to the top of Europe, little Basel, not even a stumbling block, at most a pebble on the road, a light kick, kicked away.

Judging by the results of the first leg of the quarter-finals, the other three teams that have reached the semi-finals are likely to be Real Madrid, Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich.

Who are Barcelona's opponents?

It doesn't matter which one it is.

We are Barcelona.

……

For Barcelona, Barcelona coach Vilanova lined up in a 4-3-3 formation: goalkeeper Valdés; At the back, Alba is at left-back, Alves at right-back, Pique and Bartra in central defence, and Song, Busquets and Thiago in midfield; Up front are Pedro, Sanchez and Messi. ”

"Barcelona is only a semi-main lineup. Xavi and Andres Iniesta are both rested. Zhang Lu said.

In fact, it is true, because of the strength of the opponent' Too weak', and with a four-0 lead, so Barcelona did not play with a full main lineup in this game, their manager Vilanova gave more opportunities to young players in the midfield, such as he rested Xavi and Iniesta and Cesc Fabregas, and gave Song and Thiago the opportunity to start, but on the defensive line, in addition to Pique sitting on the bench, he still discharged the main configuration, and Sanchez and Pedler and Messi's trident on the front line are also the main configuration.

"With Messi on the pitch, that's the mighty Barcelona." The Spanish commentator said at this time.

……

Subsequently, when the players of both sides came out, it caused quite a shock.

"Jiang Chenxi is at the front, and there is the captain's armband on his arm!" He Wei exclaimed, "Jiang Chenxi is the captain of Basel!" ”

He was delighted by this discovery, and a Chinese player, as the captain, led the team to appear in the Champions League quarterfinals, which was a huge surprise, which created a new history of Chinese players playing in Europe!

"Jiang Chenxi is the captain!" Zhang Lu was also pleasantly surprised, "This is a great honor, which shows his status in this Basel team!" Of course, this is also a huge pressure! ”

The camera first gave a close-up of Barcelona's number one star Messi, and then gave a close-up of Basel captain Jiang Chenxi.

Messi, 25, is Barcelona's captain today.

The 20-year-old Jiang Chenxi is Basel's captain today.

Both sides lined up.

Shake hands.

Basel captain Jiang Chenxi and Barcelona captain Lionel Messi, the two exchanged team flags, shook hands, and took a group photo.

On the sidelines, the flashing lights are magnificent.

This scene freezes at this moment.

A minute later, the Italian referee on duty, Rizzoli, blew the whistle for the start of the match.

2012/2013 UEFA Champions League quarter-final second leg – Basel vs Barcelona:

In the name of the captain, the battle begins!
