Chapter 033: Untitled

Larsson did not play in the main leagues at the peak of his career, except for Celtic in the Eredivisie Feyenoord and the Scottish Premiership, especially when Celtic won 10 trophies in seven years, and also helped Celtic reach the Europa League final in the 02/03 season, but unfortunately lost to the madman Mourinho who started in Porto.

Larsson moved to Barcelona at the age of 33 after getting older, and his most famous game in Barcelona was the 05/06 Champions League final against Arsenal, and the 35-year-old veteran Larsson, who came on as a substitute in the second half, assisted Barcelona to reverse Arsenal and help Barcelona beat Arsenal 2-1 to win the Champions League, which is absolutely unspeakable pain for Arsenal fans.

Larsson also holds a European record for the most goalscorers in the Europa League, having scored 39 goals so far, and Liu Ting remembers eventually reaching 40 goals in the Europa League.

In the 12th minute, Chamak opened the scoring.

Just five minutes later, Helsingborg's Larsson scrambled to score from inside the box to equalise. Liu Ting did not expect Larsson's 40th Europa League goal to happen to Bordeaux, Liu Ting sat on the sidelines and had the feeling of witnessing history, although it is not an important history.

'Larsson, who is a Swedish monster, scored again and increased his Europa League tally to 40, 11 more than the second-most goalscorer, which should not be broken for a long time. Liu Jianhong, who commented on this game, was introducing this Swedish old demon, Liu Ting was not in the squad, he could only say something that could be paid attention to.

In the 71st minute of the second half, substitute Cavinaghi scored a goal to help the team reverse the score, and Liu Ting also applauded him below. In the end, Bordeaux defeated Helsingborg 2-1 at home, won the Europa League group stage for the third time in a row, and qualified ahead of schedule with nine points.

Three days after the match with Helsingborg, it was Bordeaux away to Nice in the 17th round of Ligue 1, and Liu Ting entered the squad, but did not enter the starting lineup.

Nice is a city on the Mediterranean coast of France, is a holiday destination in the minds of the French, because not only Nice has a beautiful environment close to the Mediterranean Sea for vacation, but also Nice is very close to Monaco and Cannes, Nice has a special helicopter to fly Monaco and Cannes, all of which only take ten minutes. Chinese actor Liu Ye took a French wife, which is from Nice.

Sitting on the bench at the Stadium Rey, the home of the Nice team, Liu Ting watched the game on the field expressionlessly. The current score is 1:1, and Nice's Ivorian striker Koné scored through Bordeaux's goal in the 11th minute, but only five minutes later, in the 16th minute, Bordeaux veteran Miku equalized with a long-range shot.

Then the two sides were deadlocked, mainly because Nice strengthened the pressing of the midfield, Bordeaux could not control the midfield, and the two sides fell into a midfield strangulation battle, no one could take advantage, and the score has not changed.

Liu Ting looked at the situation on the field and felt that the report of "Team Daily" was also a little reasonable.

At present, Bordeaux's midfield can't even control the game against an ordinary Ligue 1 team like Nice, and the opponent will be stretched thin once pressed. Now Nice is still just an ordinary Ligue 1 team, and it will not rise until it is acquired by Chinese capital in the next 16 years and then introduces a group of players such as Ba Shen.

Among the Bordeaux midfielders, Diarra is relatively famous, and he was Vieira's successor back then, but Diarra's defense is good, and his offensive organization ability is not very good. The veteran Miku used to be a top midfielder, but now that he is older, only an occasional flash of inspiration can show his talent back then, and now it is more of an ordinary performance.

Brazilian Fernando is a completely defensive midfielder, Wendel only has one long-range shot, and the rest of the Argentines Alejandro Alonso, French midfielder Ducasse and others are even more midfielders, which is not worth mentioning.

The game quickly came to halftime, the score was still 1:1, and both teams had no way to deal with their opponents for the time being.

Blanco quickly made two substitutions in the second half, bringing on Cavinaghi and Liu Ting for Chamak and Fernando.

Bordeaux manager Blanco made two substitutions in just 10 minutes of the second half, and his determination to win the game away was unintentional. The French commentator is talking about this adjustment.

After Liu Ting and Cavinaghi came on the field, the pressure on the Bordeaux midfielder, who was missing a midfielder, was not so great, because Liu Ting and Cavinaghi were both very threatening forwards and had to be specifically marked, and Nice's defense began to shrink under the instructions of the head coach on the sidelines, giving the Bordeaux midfielder more free space.

In the 65th minute, Liu Ting got rid of the defender on the left side and slipped the ball into the penalty area at an angle of 45 degrees, this time the drop ball was very sudden, and the unguarded Cavinaghi headed the goal.

"Nice lob!! Oh, alas! It's a pity!! Liu's lob was sudden, and Cavinaghi tacitly ran to the unmarked position, but unfortunately the final header hit the top of the goal. The French commentator was sorry for the attack on Bordeaux.

It was Bordeaux's most dangerous shot of the second half before Nice pulled back the box under the manager's instructions to hold on to the home draw. Bordeaux drew 1-1 away at Nice, with both sides taking one point each.

※※※

Blanco was not too angry because Lyon lost away to Caen in the subsequent match, plus second-placed Nancy only got one draw in this round, Blanco was in a good mood and gave the team a day off. After this round, Bordeaux is still in third place, narrowing the gap with the leader Lyon by 1 point, leaving only 6 points, and the gap with Nancy in 2nd is still 2 points.

Recently, the reputation of the Caen team is very loud, in the last four rounds of Ligue 1 matches, Caen has won all three times against the Ligue 1 powerhouses, slaughtering Bordeaux 5:0 at home, Paris Saint-Germain 1:0 away, and defeating Lyon at the top of the table 1:0 at home.

The whole team had a day off, and Diraya came to find Liu Ting and said, "Liu, aren't you from Monaco?" One day on vacation, you happened to be in Monaco for a day of fun? ”

"Okay, Captain, make sure you get the job done."

So the whole Bordeaux team flew from Nice to Monaco by helicopter, and after Liu Ting recovered from his injury, Léa returned to Paris, and Liu Ting happened to be with the whole team.

Everyone first went to the Monte Carlo Grand Casino to see, everyone gambled casually, most of them gambled on slot machines, and in the afternoon they went to the port of Monaco to rent a yacht to go out to sea to bask in the sun, Monaco is close to the Mediterranean Sea, even in winter there is a warm sun.

"Liu, I really envy you for growing up in this kind of place, this place is really suitable for vacation all year round." Miku lay on the deck and said to Liu Ting.

"Okay, John, you can come here for a vacation at any time after you retire, although it is very difficult for Monaco to immigrate now, but the door is open at any time to come to vacation, if you come here for a vacation, I can lend you my house to live in, and you can save money for staying in a hotel."

"Really, Liu? You have to lend it to me when I come on vacation. "Kavinagi and Diarra and others came over to join in the fun.

Miku stood up, looked at the sea and sky in the distance, sighed and said: "Guys, I must tell you something, I have already decided, I will retire after the end of this season, and I will never be able to fight with you again." ”

Miku seemed to let go of the stone in his heart after speaking, and others were not too surprised to hear Miku's news, everyone could see that Miku's state was getting worse and worse this year, if it weren't for the lack of good midfielders in Bordeaux, maybe Miku would have been reduced to a marginal substitute for the team.

Liu Ting thought that since he joined the team, Miku was the first to become friends with him, and now that Miku is about to retire, how can he give him some retirement benefits.

"Hi guys, I think John is going to retire, that's the rule that any professional player has to follow, but we should give John a little bit of retirement benefit, we have a good result this year, we should win the league and send John off." Liu Ting proposed loudly.

"Yes, that's right."

"Win the championship!!"

All of a sudden, the whole Bordeaux team shouted in response.

It's not that Liu Ting has a high prestige in the team, after all, Liu Ting has only been in Bordeaux for half a year, but as a player, everyone wants to win the championship, Lyon, who has won six consecutive championships this year, looks a little strong, and the other strong teams are all performing badly, Bordeaux as long as he seizes the opportunity to win the league championship is not small.
