The results of the first round of the Champions League knockout round were announced, and Real Madrid advanced to the top 8 with a super score of 10:5!

After the two competitions, the other 7 seats in the top 8 also have their own owners!

Away 0:1 defeat to AC Milan, after a 1:1 draw on aggregate in extra time, they were eliminated by An Fat's disciples in the penalty shootout!

After the first round of the Champions League knockout round, La Liga unexpectedly maintained a strong group stage, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia stayed in the next round of PK, especially the Bat Army's 3:2 Ricky Bayern Munich, which was considered by many media and fans to be the biggest upset in the first round of the knockout round - the Bat secretly Flores's "strong man broke his wrist" strategy was a temporary success, the league was hopeless, the Copa del Rey was eliminated by Sevilla, Valencia has put all its energy into the Champions League!

The Premier League has only survived the Red Devils Manchester United and Arsenal Arsenal, while Serie A also retains two teams - the two giants from Milan City, the Portuguese Super League, Porto, the Bundesliga, and the Bundesliga...... The tragedy of Chiguoguo - becoming the second league to be wiped out after Ligue 1!

On March 8, the draw results of the second round of the Champions League knockout round were announced, and the top 8 matchups were produced!

Real Madrid and Serie A giants AC Milan face each other, first home and away, and the first leg will be held at the Bernabeu on April 4!

The other six teams also started a catch-and-match, Serie A table eye Inter Milan played against the Premier League leader Red Devils Manchester United, staged a [battle of the top eyes], while the Catalan giants Barcelona and the Bat Army Valencia are in the same room, Arsenal Arsenal is going to Portugal Dragon Stadium, and the Gunners are trying to become dragon warriors!

Of course, for the giants, there is still a period of time in the Champions League with 4 people, and the most urgent thing is to stabilize their position in the league.

On March 11, Real Madrid away "provoked" the third-to-last promoted horse in the La Liga standings (Recreativo), in order to preserve the fighting power, the madman Lee rotated, except for Ronaldo, who is creating the total number of league goals in a single season step by step, and Beckham, who is working hard for the world footballer, Real Madrid's camp is full of a group of young players, and even a few little guys from Castilla have been given the opportunity to come off the bench!

Although Huelva did his best to win, but the huge gap in strength still made the game lose suspense early in the first half, Ronaldo in the 19th minute this season I don't know how many times TMD staged a good show of riding alone, 5 minutes later the little coach Watermelon Higuain received Beckham's corner header and scored, in the 35th minute Guti went in the penalty arc and scored from a distance, and the 45th Cannavaro scored Huelva's goal with a header again in the corner kick tactics!

It is worth mentioning that all four goals were assisted by David Beckham, as the season deepened, Beckham became more and more comfortable in the position of the back, and some research institutions found through statistics that all the midfielders of Beckham in the five major leagues put aside goals and assists, and the interception and steal data also topped the list, faintly becoming the world's No. 1 defender!

Unfortunately, although Li Tongfan rotated in time, the bad impact of the third-line battle gradually appeared, and the players' physical reserves gradually became difficult to support, which eventually led to the situation that Lao Li was most unwilling to see - large-scale injuries!

After the winter break, Croatian Shota Modric, who gradually sat in the team's main winger position, strained his calf in a header during the routine training on the morning of March 13, and the team doctor Gonzalez Yi made a report after a simple diagnosis, believing that Modric needs at least 3 weeks to recuperate, of course, if Ito Yun uses his "omnipotent" acupuncture and qigong massage, maybe it will be better faster!

Four days later, the 33-year-old captain of the Italian national team, Cannavaro, sprained his ankle during a tackle and was also out of action for three weeks!

As a result, with Raul, the Lord of the Rings, there are already three players in the main team who will not be able to participate in the match against AC Milan on April 4!

Of course, Real Madrid is not the only one who has suffered from such an illness, and all the giants in the five major leagues who have survived until now have more or less injured main players!

The time has come to really test the ability of the head coach, and the last two months of the game are like a supergirl draft, and it is the pure masters who stick to the end!

On March 18, at home against the yellow submarine Villarreal, which is ranked 7th in the league standings, Portuguese winger Quaresma got the chance to start!

Speaking of which, the four players who joined Real Madrid during the winter break, Carlos Vela, Diego and Kompany all delivered satisfactory answers to Real Madrid fans, but Quaresma, who is tied for the first place in transfer value with Diego, did not play at the level that people expected!

The Spanish media has begun to list Quaresma as one of the parallel players recruited in La Liga this season, which is a bad surname that the media can never change, when Diego joined Real Madrid, he was directly included in the top ten parallel goods in the future because of his value and experience before he played the game, and as a result, the Brazilian midfielder performed eye-catching after three or four games, and suddenly the wind was in the opposite direction and one-sided praise!

To be clear, the media is doing this in order to create enough gimmicks to attract readers' attention, what are the top ten parallel goods, the top ten handsome guys, the top ten declining gods, and the top ten ...... But if as a head coach, you also follow the media to make fools, then you are brain-dead - because you paid 20 million euros for the so-called "parallel import"!

So Li Tongfan is very concerned about the current situation of Quaresma!

In Lao Li's view, Quaresma's poor performance is mainly due to his surname, because the Portuguese seem to be very unsociable, and he has been in the team for nearly three months, and he has not even made a friend, and the most direct consequence of this situation is that Quaresma is always outside the team as a whole when he plays on the field, and after getting the ball, he will only cover his head and take it wildly, and over time the hammers are not willing to pass the ball to the Portuguese...... As for what others say about the lack of strength, that's, Quaresma was even able to lead Porto to score against Chelsea when he was in Portugal, is it also a lack of strength?

Therefore, Lao Li gave a special psychological guidance to Quaresma before the game, and made it very clear when arranging tactics in the locker room that today's game will focus on Quaresma's side and disrupt the submarine's defense line through the Portuguese's personal breakthrough!

In order to cooperate with the winger tactics, Li Tongfan even took Ronaldo from the starter in the name of a rotation, and replaced it with the king of the small penalty area and Higuain, two center forwards who are more suitable for Quaresma's side crosses!

Lao Li took such pains to activate Quaresma, not only for the Portuguese personal, but also for the future games, in case of repeated injuries, there will be a qualified firefighter at that time!

At 22:00 on the evening of March 18th, the game officially began!

The media was shocked by Quaresma's appearance in the starting line-up, a move that even Villarreal's head coach and "intellectual engineer" Pellegrini!

Given the poor performances that had previously passed, the Submarine didn't focus on Quaresma, and it wasn't until Real Madrid knocked on Villarreal's door with two simple flanks from the Portuguese side that Pellegrini realized that something wasn't right!

"Nice assist...... Ricardo Quaresma...... "The commentator of Spanish national television couldn't help but exclaim: "This is the second assist of Portugal's magic wing in the opening 30 minutes, incredible dribbling ability, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Higuain have been cared for by him successively......"

Portuguese Devil Wings Resurrected!

The two assists restored Quaresma's confidence a lot, especially after the goal, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Higuain were the first to run over and give him a hug, making him feel that his teammates didn't actually look down on him, and then think about the one-on-one conversation and tactical arrangement of manager Maniac Lee before the game...... At this moment, Quaresma had a strange feeling that he was about to take off, just like in Porto, Portugal, and find his own way!

80 minutes later, the game was over, Real Madrid beat Villarreal 3-0 at home, and Quaresma scored a hat-trick of assists!
