Jones stood with Fabre, "What are you doing?" Dangling there? Fabregas looked at Jones walking around on the ground, and his head was dizzy from Jones's turn.

"I can't sit still! It was my first Champions League game. "Jones is an honest man, and he just said it.

"Huh! Excited, I was a little nervous when I first played, but Arsene Wenger told me at the time that you should just play him as a normal game, especially since you've been in a World Cup qualifier. "The older ones have to enlighten the older ones.

Cesc Fabregas feels normal, and his first Champions League was enlightened by the captain and coach.

"Well, that's just a qualifier, I also know that the Champions League is where players can really prove themselves, the World Cup has to be next year, and now I'm looking forward to the game coming soon!" Jones thought about it, but still couldn't calm down.

"It's okay, it's our home stadium, you just play it as a normal league."

"I know! But I'm still excited! ”

"It's normal to be excited! My first time I played in the Champions League, I was like you, but I suddenly remembered something! ”

"What's the matter?"

"Are you not yet 18 years old?" Fabregas scratched his head and asked the question.

"Ah," Jones thought about it.

"Looks like yes, my birthday is at the end of this month, and I'll be officially 18 years old by then!"

"Wow! If you score tomorrow, you'll be England's youngest player to score in a Champions League game, which is another record! Fabregas was yelling there, startling Jones.

"Yes! So who is the current record holder? ”

"But it's nothing! You don't have to be under pressure, you don't have a chance to score from the youngest player, but you can get it in England, and that's a record for you! ”

"In 2011-12, just 18 years old, Oxlade-Chamberlain scored his first Champions League goal, and in the Champions League group stage against Olympiacos, Oxlade-Chamberlain made his Champions League debut, scoring in just eight minutes, which also made him England's youngest Champions League goalscorer, surpassing his team-mate Theo Walcott, you don't know it."

Yes, I scored in the first 8 minutes, which is a bit difficult! Fabregas's words intrigued Jones.

Forget it, what do you want to do so much! Anyway, I had to score three goals and three assists in this game, so it would be nice to save the ball and get the best record.

"Since it's possible for you to win this record and let someone else hold this, why don't you give it to you as a teammate, and I'll help you!" Fabregas said.

"Then thank you, I'll help you too, so that you can score too" Jones was also interested in the suggestion.

"Whatever, I'm not very interested in this anymore, I just can win with the team." After that, he got up and started to warm up.

When Qarabag won the Azerbaijani championship in August 1993, the team from the Agdam region of southwestern Azerbaijan had no celebrations, no applause, and no flowers, because their hometown was in the midst of war.

After the victory, the Qarabag players did not have time to celebrate, and set off to return to their hometown, which had been flattened by fire, in search of their loved ones, which was also the first Azerbaijan Premier League title won by Qarabag since its founding on July 23, 1951, and they also won the Azerbaijan Cup in the same year and the Super Cup the following year.

This is a team that has stepped from the battlefield to the pitch, and they have quenched nirvana and lived to the death.

24 years have passed, they have monopolized the league title for four consecutive seasons, and finally burned the fire to the Champions League, as the first team in Azerbaijani history to reach the Champions League, after stepping on the corpse of the Danish powerhouse Copenhagen to advance, Qarabag will compete with Chelsea, Roma, Atletico Madrid and other first-class teams.

"This club means everything to the Azerbaijani people," Ibrahimov, Qarabak's head of public relations, lamented before the game.

"Our territory was occupied, and it was through the success of Karabak that we attracted the attention of the world."

Between 1988 and 1994, between 25,000 and 35,000 people were killed and more than 1 million were displaced and forced to leave their homes as a result of the ongoing conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia.

Despite a truce between the two sides through Russian mediation, Nagorno-Karabak fell into Armenian hands and Agdam became a desert, and the city was then the fortress of Armenia and later the capital of the now de facto independent Republic of Artakh.

To this day, Armenian snipers still patrol the streets of Agdam, and for nearly 25 years no one has dared to set foot in the gates, and the Imarat Stadium, the former home of Qarabag, is empty.

Former Qarabag striker Husenov recalled: "We couldn't believe that this would continue to affect today, and suddenly every corner of everyday life became dangerous. On the way to and from training, both in training and in competitions, there was no guarantee of safety, and shells were constantly being thrown down. ”

At the beginning of the war, Husenov was only 18 years old, and in his heart, the fear of being dominated by artillery fire was directly proportional to the emotion brought by football. "At that time, more than ever, people wanted us to play beautiful football. We were in a stadium with a capacity of 10,000 people, in front of 15,000 spectators, and in the shadow of war, Qarabag became a symbol. ”

At a time when the crisis was not deepening, the football team evolved into a symbol of people's desire to survive.

Kasanov, captain of Qarabag's final season at Agdam, later said: "Before a match in 1992, we had to fill up a hole in the pitch with dirt before we could play. ”

"We know that we are at war."

"Airplanes hover over us all day, but we're not afraid of death," Kasanov said. Agdam is our home, and playing there is our duty, for the people there and for the people who fight for us. ”

Agdam eventually fell in July 1993, and in order to prevent a resurgence of Baku, the Armenian military banned the return of the Agdam natives, but Karabak benefited from the team, which became an important pawn in the Ilham Aliyev government, and Azerbaijan was unable to recover Nagorno-Karabak, but indirectly helped the Karabak team to tide over the difficulties.

In fact, Qarabag was on the verge of bankruptcy at the time, and if it had not been for the huge amount of money from the Azerbaijani state-controlled company, the team would have been a thing of the past.

It was former President Aliyev the Sr. who ordered him to take over Karabak in 2001.

In the political game between Argentina and Asia, Karabak has long been not just a club, but a key chess piece, whether it is against Baku or Yerevan (the capital of Armenia), Karabak is a political vocabulary, a bargaining chip, the Armenians Karabak was mocked in the war of words, this team is described as a puppet of the corrupt government of Azerbaijan Therefore, the rise of Karabak is a fairy tale in war for the whole world, only Armenians do not think so.

The first round of the UEFA Champions League group stage is about to begin, and Jones is on the kick-off with Costa next to him, and this game is also the focus of the game.
