Chapter 202: After the game

"Manchester City won against Real Madrid by luck!" There was an angry retort from a Spanish journalist.

This voice quickly 'won' the unanimous affirmation of other Spanish reporters, they are very dissatisfied with Wansheng's 'sarcasm' Real Madrid, even if they can't find a rebuttal point from Wansheng's words, then really talk about the game, Manchester City's last goal, absolutely rely on luck, Ozil, who scored the goal, is a rookie player at all, and the excited look on the field can also say a lot of things, he didn't even react to the goal after the goal for the first time.

But Wan Sheng just smiled slightly, and mentioned an old saying, "Luck is also a kind of strength!" ”

'Mesut [Mesut Ozil] was outstanding, he was a big contributor to the win, there was a bit of luck in that goal, but he was in the right position, otherwise he wouldn't have scored the goal!'

'The key is, we won the game, we got the three points, I'm happy.'

After saying that, Wan Sheng no longer paid attention to the Spanish media reporters, but introduced David Silva to everyone on the scene, "David is a genius, he played quite well in this game, he is the best player, so I brought him here, and when I leave, you can interview him", and then quipped, "David is a little shy, you can't ask too private questions." ”

Many reporters at the scene laughed closely.

With Wan Sheng's words, many media reporters felt that the relationship with him was much closer, which surprised them, in the public's impression, this young Chinese has always been labeled as 'arrogant', 'arrogant', and 'difficult to communicate', but they didn't expect him to have such an amiable time.

Anelka was also very good, he was our top scorer, I think any praise can be put on him, he scored a goal just in the opening game. I couldn't believe it when I saw that goal. ”

After the presentation, Wan Sheng left the press conference, leaving the rest of the time for Anelka and David Silva

David Silva is excited, having been with Manchester City for over a year and it wasn't the first time he had attended his post-match press conference, but this one was definitely the most talked-about time.

This is the post-match between the UEFA Champions League and Real Madrid matches.

Even if he was the best player of the game, he didn't expect Wansheng to bring him to the press conference, so when he arrived at the venue, he was a little fluttering. Because he knew it was a rare opportunity.

In the venue, there were journalists from all over the world.

England, Spain, France, Germany, etc., in addition to European media, there are also many Chinese journalists, in addition to many reporters from other Asian countries, Africa, and the Americas. He became the protagonist of media reporters.

Seeing Wansheng leave, David Silva even felt nervous.

However, when the media reporter asked him to talk about his feelings, he still forced his inner emotions. He said calmly, "I feel a little incredible, I didn't think about anything during the game. But I became the best player. But I think there are a lot of teammates who are better than me, and like the coach said, they just lack some luck. There are fewer goals, so the best player is mine. ”

'Now I want to thank Wan Sheng in the first place, last summer, I was still playing in the Spanish second division, he brought me to Manchester, I'm used to being here, now to be the best player, it's also a credit to Wan Sheng, he wants me to be a big star, yes, he's always wanted that, I'm grateful to him.'

'In the game, I thought the coach was watching, the fans were watching, but I wasn't nervous, I knew the team needed to score, so"

Under the lens of the media, David Silva said a lot, and he could hear that he was talking from his heart, and he was constantly mentioning Wansheng's name, which made those media who were dissatisfied with Wansheng can only sigh, "This Chinese has too high a status in the hearts of Manchester City players." ”

After David Silva finished speaking, it was Anelka's turn, when David Silva said just now, Anelka was also listening, he didn't have so much reverence for Wansheng, but think about it carefully, when Keegan was coaching, his performance was so different from now that even the French team gave up on him, and now he has re-entered Domenech's team, not because of Wansheng's coaching.

Thinking of this, Anelka couldn't help but say, "I also want to thank Wan Sheng, he has brought good results to the team, and I have more and better teammates, so I can perform well, and I hope that the next team will have better results and I can score more goals." ”

"I'm sure I can do it!"

Anelka's confident look and the affirmation of himself in his tone are different from David Silva's, and he is a little more egoistic in comparison, which is actually criticized by the media and fans.

However, what more people pay attention to is that Anelka also mentioned Wan Sheng before talking about himself, which made them more sure that the young Chinese coach has too high a status in the hearts of Manchester City players, and even Anelka, who is 'so self-contained', has been infected

After the match, the media covered the game overwhelmingly.

This Group G match between Manchester City and Real Madrid was originally the focus of the third round of the Champions League group stage, and the collision between the English team and the Spanish team was enough to attract great attention, especially the game itself was very exciting - first Manchester City scored a goal, Real Madrid scored two goals in a row, and then Manchester City recovered the score, until the end of the game, Manchester City relied on a young player's 'dribble' to win, such a tense and tortuous game, enough to become the biggest focus.

The match has been mentioned in almost all football-linked media in Europe, and many TV stations are preparing to rebroadcast the game.

This is destined to become a classic battle in the group stage of this season's Champions League!

As far as the coverage of the game is concerned, the media still revolves around several players who have performed well in Manchester City, David Silva, Anelka, Lee Morris, Downing, Dunn and other players have been mentioned one by one, and Ozil, who scored the last goal, has also been highlighted by some media, especially the German media, and the most worthy of introduction is Ozil, because other players have long been famous, and Ozil is still just a newcomer to European football.

As a newcomer to European football. Origin is also very important.

Just like college students graduating and looking for a job, graduates of Tsinghua University and Peking University will definitely be looked down upon, and students who graduate from ordinary schools will give people a very ordinary feeling.

In European football, clubs such as Barcelona and Ajax are very famous for cultivating young people, and the young people from the youth teams of these clubs can always be looked down upon, and the most outstanding 'young talents' among them have not officially set foot in the Premier League, and their worth can reach millions or even tens of millions.

In contrast, Mesut Ozil is a son of Schalke 04. It's just an ordinary player.

Therefore, although Ozil is Schalke 04's young talent and has a little fame in German football, his value has not been raised, and Manchester City can only spend 3 million euros to wait for him, even if this value is enough to satisfy Schalke 04, and at the same time make many media criticize, they think the deal is very worthless.

But now with this Champions League group stage goal. Some German media joked, "Just this one goal, Manchester City has earned it back." ”

Of course, there is an element of exaggeration in this. But it's not an exaggeration.

According to UEFA's budget for the Champions League this season, all Champions League matches will bring in 700 million euros, of which 530 million euros will be distributed as prize money.

The appearance fee for the group stage is 4.4 million euros: each team participating in the group stage will receive 2 million euros first, and the appearance fee for each group stage game is 400,000 euros.

Meantime. The prize money for each win is also huge: 600,000 euros for a win in the group stage, and 300,000 euros for a draw team.

Each team that reaches the round of 16 will receive an additional 2.2 million euros, and the quarter-finals will receive 2.5 million euros. The teams that reach the semi-finals will have three million euros in their books. The winning team will also receive 7 million euros, and the runners-up will also receive 4 million euros.

In this sense, the 32 teams that entered the group stage have already secured 4.4 million euros, plus TV broadcasts, ticket sharing, peripheral and other income, each team participating in the Champions League group stage can have nearly 10 million euros.

In terms of a single game, just the victory over Real Madrid can make Manchester City earn more than 300,000 euros, that is to say, Ozil's goal is worth at least 300,000 euros, and this goal also allows Manchester City to win a place in the round of 16 without pressure, plus the extra TV broadcast share brought by the victory, as well as the impact of the victory on Manchester City's fame and the activity of the ball market, all together, Ozil's goal is definitely worth more than one million euros.

So the claims of the German media are not exaggerated.

In addition to reporting on the performance of the players, the media found Manchester City's results in the Champions League incredible.

It is not an exaggeration to call Group G the 'Group of Death', as even the 'least favoured' Manchester City won the Premier League last season, while Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are both European giants, regulars in the knockout stages of the Champions League, and even strong contenders for the European title.

As a result, after three rounds of matches, Manchester City won all three games and scored 9 points.

In addition to lamenting the results, many media also asked, "How did Manchester City do it?" How did that Chinese do it? Why did Manchester City, who didn't invest much in the summer, play so well? Do they really have such strength? ”

Of course, Manchester City's good results are good news for English football as a whole, which means that the Premier League will win more UEFA points, which is very beneficial to expand the influence of the Premier League.

Therefore, the English media is happy to hear that their teams have done well in the Champions League.

No matter how many mortal enemies Manchester City has in England, it is also an internal contradiction, a contradiction in regional and regional football, so externally, the English media will support their own teams, so after Manchester City's victory, the English media unanimously praised Manchester City.

England and Spain are different in this respect.

In Spanish football, Barcelona and Real Madrid are absolute rivals, and this is entirely due to the influence of 'politics'.

The Catalans are not at all satisfied with the rule of Madrid, they have always wanted to separate from Spain, although the political environment and history make it impossible to achieve it now, but the contradiction with the capital is unforgettable, so the contradiction is transferred to the field of football.

So when Real Madrid doesn't do well, the media that support Barcelona will not sympathize, they will only say sarcasm, even jubilant celebrations, and when Real Madrid plays against other national teams, they will also support other teams and hope that Real Madrid will fail.

That's the level of hatred between the two.

At this point, Manchester City's football environment in England is much better.

Here you can imagine what kind of pressure coach Capello will face after Real Madrid returns to Spain.

Of course, it has nothing to do with Manchester City.

After the game, the English media was not full of positive news for Manchester City, and there were several pieces of news that also attracted a lot of attention, and that was about Manchester City midfielder Joey Barton.

Joey Barton is a player who came through Manchester City's youth team, he has been a Manchester City talent since he was a child, and he has been playing for Manchester City since he was a professional footballer.

If Joey Barton can perform better, or if City can do better under Keegan, then Joey Barton can be compared to Liverpool's Steven Gerrard, both of whom are team-labeled players who can represent their respective teams.

This news has to do with Joey Barton.

Joey Barton's agent, Willie McKay, said in an interview with the media, "Barton is playing less and less at Manchester City, and he is not very liked by manager Wan Sheng, so he has plans to leave. Just one sentence, but it caused a big wave!

Although this sentence was said by Willie McKay and not confirmed by Joey Button himself, it is certain that this must have something to do with Joy Button, otherwise Willie Mackay would not have said such a thing.

This news caused quite a stir, because it was Joey Barton!

Although Joey Barton is known as a 'bad boy', there is always news that he is restless on and off the field, but he always comes from Manchester City's academy and is a pure Manchester Cityer, and his influence at Manchester City is still very large.

So when they heard the news that he was leaving, a lot of media rushed to the Manchester City training base, hoping to interview Joey Barton himself to confirm it. (To be continued.) )
