Chapter 169: The Curse of the King of Sanya!
The time had come to night, and Lao Lei had already said goodbye to Avril and returned to the villa. At this time, he was in his room, ready to enter the system and make this vacation copy. But at this time, he suddenly thought of something, found the computer in the room, and typed 4 words skateboard boy into the search bar. After a while, a familiar voice appeared in the speaker placed next to the monitor. Listening to the dynamic music, Lao Lei listened to the whole song honestly. Not bad, very feeling, this is the first feeling in Lao Lei's heart after listening. After listening to it a few more times, Lao Lei turned off the computer and went back to bed, ready to start entering the dungeon. I accidentally touched my nose, which was still with a band-aid, and smiled, thinking that this was not a good memory.
Then I immediately entered the system and clicked on the copy of this issue. After a series of familiar operations, Lao Lei successfully entered the dungeon. This time it was the 01-02 Champions League final, and he became LaMelo in Bayer Leverkusen. The final result of this game was that Raul and Zinedine Zidane each made a trip, and in the 90-minute game, Real Madrid successfully won the final championship with a score of 2:1, and also brought the club the ninth Champions League title in history. Among them, Zidane received a pass from Carlos in the third minute of first-half stoppage time, and directly hit an unconventional volley on the line of the penalty area, and the football flew directly into the corner of the upper left corner of the Bayer Leverkusen goal, which was a goal that flew out of the sky.
It was a match that made Zidane the first Champions League title of his career and completed the Grand Slam of his career. Got all the championships you could get. It also made Real Madrid, winning the 9th Big Ear Cup in the club's history. Let it still be proud of all other big clubs, ranking first. But it also buried Leverkusen. This season's excellent Bayer Leverkusen, under the leadership of the rising Ballack, won a weighty, but also very embarrassing, regrettable result of 3 runners-up. This title, in the eyes of the entire Bayer Leverkusen team, may be more of a mockery than glory.
The 01-02 season was a special one for Bayer Leverkusen, who had a perfect start but a sad ending that they will never forget. In addition to matches in the Bundesliga and the German Cup. In addition to always being on a high stage, their performance in the Champions League is also impressive enough. In the first round of the group stage, they successfully squeezed out Lyon and Barcelona to qualify together.
In the second round of the group stage, Bayer Leverkusen drew a suffocating group of death. Arsenal gunner Arsenal in the Premier League, Juventus, the absolute giants of Italy, and Super Laco, the killer of La Liga. Such a group draw, no matter who is put in front of it, is a super death group that cannot be avoided. Just when everyone in the outside world is looking down on Leverkusen, at any point in time if anyone is optimistic that Leverkusen can successfully qualify again, others will definitely think that your brain is problematic. In such a situation. The Germans began their journey in the second round of the group stage of the Champions League.
In the beginning, Leverkusen's table was indeed as bad as one might expect. At the foot of the Alps and in Highbury, Bayer Leverkusen both swallowed four shots in a row away from home and lost the game. But it is in this case. Bayer Leverkusen showed their resilience as a German team and embarked on a magical miracle journey. After returning to the home stadium, Bayer Leverkusen linked Juventus and Super Laco. Draw with Arsenal. Leaping to second place in this group, these three games are simply stupid for the whole of European football. However, this is not the end. Bayer Leverkusen is getting braver, at the Devils' home stadium, the Riazot Stadium. Defeated Super Laco again and successfully advanced to the knockout stage with the first place in the group, knocking out Juventus and Arsenal.
The rest of the journey was also a thrilling one-eighth of the game, with Bayer Leverkusen winning a big win at home after losing to the Premier League Reds Liverpool by one goal away. The disparity of 4:1 allowed them to successfully eliminate Liverpool with a score of 4:2 to advance to the next round. In the semi-finals, with a score of 3:3, with the advantage of away goals, the Red Devils under Alex Ferguson were eliminated and entered the final with Real Madrid.
However, it seems that this is the end of Bayer Leverkusen's good fortune all season. In the Bundesliga, with only 3 rounds left and a 5-point point advantage, it suddenly collapsed and handed over the championship trophy to Dortmund and was relegated to second place. In the final of the German Cup, it was won by Schalke 04 and won the second runner-up of the season. In this case, Leverkusen only has the Champions League final left to fight, but God does not seem to take care of them, there is more than one team in the history of football to win the treble, but Sanya Wang's team may be the only one Leverkusen.
In this case, Lao Lei saw a very cheating hint when he entered the dungeon. This is a very tricky task setting, the curse of the king of Sanya: Leverkusen failed by a fraction in the first two championships, Rao is their rough nerves, and they are very badly destroyed. Due to the impact of the previous unfavorable results, the psychology of the whole Leverkusen team has been clouded, and once they fall behind in the game, the morale of the whole Leverkusen team will be affected. For every goal behind, the overall strength table drops by 5%. This is undoubtedly a great increase in difficulty for the dungeon, but the entry has already come in, and it is too late to regret it. Unlike in the past, if you fail this dungeon, there is a penalty, and the corresponding soul points will be deducted according to the evaluation, up to 50 points. This made Lao Lei feel the pressure at the same time, but also felt the motivation, he wanted to come, and it was not certain who would die or live.
Maybe Leverkusen is really cursed at the end of this season, compared with Real Madrid, which has a full lineup, Leverkusen, who is not already superior, has a non-complete main lineup, not only the defensive center of gravity Nozettny is injured and absent, but the all-round midfielder Ze Roberto, an important helper in the front field, is also banned for accumulating yellow cards. This is undoubtedly a huge test for Bayer Leverkusen. After reading the detailed information given by the system, Lao Lei took a deep breath, and the pressure on his body was even heavier.
Although he has just led Porto to a Champions League group stage to defeat Real Madrid, these are two different things at all. Although the star taste of this Real Madrid lineup is weaker, it is undoubtedly more reasonable. Hierro and Makelele make Real Madrid's defense no longer so untrustworthy, and Morientes, an excellent traditional center forward in the front line, is undoubtedly more able to cooperate with Raul. Regardless of personal strength, Morientes is undoubtedly more able to form a synergy with Raul. Compared to the Real Madrid team against Porto, there is no doubt that this is a more balanced and practical Real Madrid, and in this way Real Madrid will undoubtedly be more difficult to beat.
Lao Lei has come to Leverkusen's locker room, and at this time, Leverkusen's head coach Topmueller is hurrying to arrange the final tactics. In this crucial game, Topmueller fielded a 4-5-1 lineup with a clear purpose, playing defensive counter-attacks. In the current tactical arrangement, he has also repeatedly emphasized that he should use tough and active defense to counter Real Madrid's attacking group, but he needs to be careful not to get a yellow card too quickly. Lao Lei glanced at the Leverkusen players around him, and the overall body and size level were undoubtedly higher than his players in Porto. Physical superiority, this is the first definition of this Leverkusen team, and then he thinks of counter-attacking speed and high-altitude balls.
With these two advantages, Lao Lei has less worry in his heart. In football, there has always been a strange phenomenon, that is, sometimes strong teams tend to be restrained by some weaknesses, the most classic of which is Norway and Brazil, two old enemies. The Samba Army's reputation for Brazil needs no mention, but they have so far been unable to win against a rough Norway side. This is the result of the restraint of play, and in Lao Lei's opinion, Leverkusen's strength, speed and height are the biggest magic weapons to defeat Real Madrid.
The match was held at the Hampton National Sports Stadium in Scotland, and the time was fast approaching. Both teams were already standing in the players' tunnel, and after walking out of the players' tunnel with the referee, there was a lively and noisy scene in front of Lao Lei. This is the first time Lao Lei stood on the scene of the Champions League final, and the atmosphere of the scene shocked him, which is second only to the atmosphere of the World Cup final that he has experienced. Although the symbolic significance of the Champions League is undoubtedly less than that of the World Cup, it is only a club competition after all.
But compared to the national team competition, there is no doubt that the club competition is superior in every aspect, both in terms of squad and tactical maturity. In the club competition, the Champions League, which belongs to the leading position, is undoubtedly the most valuable club competition. So to say that the Champions League is the most high-level cup competition in the world, at least in terms of the level of participants, is understandable.
This experience of the first Champions League final is undoubtedly a bit new for Lao Lei. Compared with the final of the World Cup, there is less pressure and responsibility to win glory for the country, and the victory or defeat of the game is more pure. After a series of tedious pre-match ceremonies, the game officially began at the referee's whistle.
After the opening kick-off, Bayer Leverkusen's players faithfully executed Topmüller's tactics and pressed Real Madrid's ball-handler from the start.
Just one minute into the opening period, Zidane picked up the ball in midfield. Lao Lei was about to step forward to rob, but who knew that he was one step behind. Bayer Leverkusen's Schneider came directly with a big sliding tackle and sent Zidane to the ground.
Lao Lei looked at the expressionless face in front of him, and simply ignored Schneider who was rolling over his legs, and then looked at Zidane, who was obviously uncomfortable when he fell to the ground.
A strange smile suddenly appeared on his face.
I like this kind of team! (To be continued......)
