Chapter 575: The Best Player in Europe Award

When Lee used his signature stunt to open Everton's goal for the second time, the entire Goodison Park stadium was no longer so boiling, but rather silent.

Martinez made a substitution, and the veteran Distin was replaced. His physical strength is no longer enough for him to continue playing, and at the same time, he is easy to give Li Zihan a chance on the court. Li Zihan's excellent flexibility and speed are the dream of these veterans, and there are many famous veterans such as John Terry, Demichaelis, and Van Bitten, who have fallen at the feet of Li Zihan, and his distins are not as famous as these people.

Although it was a substitution on the defensive end, Martinez's signal to the court was still offensive.

Everton continued to attack with Arsenal, but by the time the game came to the final minutes, many of the Everton players fell to the ground and pulled back - the first half of the game had cost them a lot of energy, and now they were cramping their legs

When defending, Everton listed Li Zihan as a key target and hoarded heavy troops in his position.

But that gave Sanchez a chance on the other side, and when Lee Zihan took away the Everton defence, Mesut Ozil delivered a lethal pass.

New centre-back Alcaraz didn't move in tandem with his team-mates and Mesut Ozil's pass went straight into his defence. After Sanchez, who followed up, received the ball, he resisted Alcaraz in the penalty area little by little.

Howard made a side move, but in the end the ball hit his glove and bounced into the goal!

"Three to one!! Arsenal's big comeback!! ”

"Now Arsenal is crazy and terrible, as long as Li Zihan was frozen, Arsenal's attack and threat were more than half smaller, although it was not so easy to freeze Li Zihan. But now, Everton are focusing on Li Zihan and ignoring other Arsenal players, such as Alexis Sanchez, who scored the goal.

When the score came to 3-1, Everton were deflated and they couldn't run anymore.

At this time, Martinez made two substitutions in a row, first replacing Barry, an old midfielder who couldn't run, with veteran striker Samuel Eto'o, and then replacing McCarthy with Coleman! Although McCarthy was fast, after running for 80 minutes, he couldn't run.

When the score reached 3-1, Arsene Wenger also began to make substitutions. He replaced captain Li Zihan with teenager Oxlade-Chamberlain, and then replaced Mesut Ozil with Wilshere.

There is no controversy about such substitutions, Everton's movements behind are getting bigger and bigger, and their bodies are about to bite into the overdraft, and after they make the move, their nerves may not necessarily reflex, and the action is not easy to contain.

In order to avoid the most active Li Zihan being tackled by the opponent, Wenger replaced him first. As for Mesut Ozil, although the German has not been very casual since coming to Arsenal, and has been a lot more active in attack and defense on the pitch, his individual ability is limited, and his defense is only symbolic.

As for Wilshere, he can help defend while attacking. Able to effectively control the midfield and not give Everton a chance.

In the end, Arsenal claimed their second win of the season at Goodison Park and secured their sixth point of the season with a win over a difficult Everton side!

In other games, Arsenal's arch-rivals Chelsea beat promoted Malesster City 2-0, United were held to a 1-1 draw by Black Cat Sunderland, and the Reds continued to decline, while Sunderland's equaliser was a chance that Giaccherini's tireless pressing and running up front was passed to Adam Johnson, who blasted the door open for United.

Manchester United continues to be picturesque in the front, rotten in the back!

The highlight of this round was Manchester City's Etihad to welcome the Reds to Liverpool, but the Reds were a little afraid of the difficult expedition, and they were beaten 3-1 by Manchester City, and the loss was temperless.

Had it not been for Sturridge's assist for Philippe Coutinho's goal, perhaps Liverpool's score would have been even more ugly.

In the 60th minute of the game, Liverpool's indispensable striker Sturridge was brought down by Fernando and finally stretchered off the pitch and became the most talked-about game of the game.

Because the perpetrator Fernando was not sent off by referee Mike Dean, Mike Dean only gave a yellow card warning. And Sturridge's replacement is Manchester City's veteran, Italian striker Balotelli!

It's just that Ba Shen's appearance is not good, and the little time left is wasted by him.

After a hasty end to the game, Arsenal took a break and flew to Monaco in France.

On August 28, at 5 p.m. local time in Monaco, the draw for the Champions League group stage and the award ceremony for the best European players took place at the Grimaldi Memory Centre in Monte Carlo.

The Arsenal manager led the captain Li Zihan and many Arsenal players to attend, and Li Zihan was wearing a black suit provided by Arsenal's formal wear sponsor, which was simple and decent.

Li Zihan, who walked on the red carpet, was welcomed by fans and reporters, and he naturally walked in the focus of the flashing lights, signing autographs for fans, and answering short interviews with reporters, which is still much more mature.

At the Grimaldi Convention Center, the handsome and beautiful women from France and Italy first livened up the atmosphere and then began to play the promotional video of this year's awards ceremony.

Finally, there is the award of awards.

The award for the best striker is somewhat unsuspenseful, and Li Zihan, who scored 17 goals, is unlikely to be defeated. So the award presenters only announced that Li Zihan had won the award for the best striker after symbolically playing the MV of the top three strikers in last season's Champions League scorer list - which is almost no suspense.

In second place is Real Madrid's star Cristiano Ronaldo, and in third place is the absolute supremacy of Paris Saint-Germain, Swedish center forward Ibrahimovic. Falling behind others is naturally unacceptable for stars with self-confident and competitive personalities like Cristiano Ronaldo and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, so they both have a straight face when they accept the award.

The winner of the best midfielder is Real Madrid Argentina Flying Wing, and now he has gone to Manchester United's Di Maria, the second place is Arsenal midfield core Ozil, and the third place is very unexpected, it is actually Manchester United striker Rooney Rooney last season from the forward position to the midfielder and the midfielder, which made his goal efficiency drop a lot, but the number of assists has come up. Together with Di Maria and Benzema, he became one of the assist leaders with five Champions League assists.

It is worth mentioning that two of the three candidates for the best midfielder are former Real Madrid players, which is very embarrassing for Real Madrid, who only won the Copa del Rey last season.

Among the candidates for the best defender were Paris Saint-Germain's Brazilian centre-back Thiago Silva, Atletico Madrid's Uruguayan captain Godin and Real Madrid's young French international Raphael Varane, who was elected by Uruguayan Godin.

The position of the best goalkeeper is more embarrassing, Neuer should have been the most vocal choice, but the poor German goalkeeper was ruthlessly chilled by Li Zihan when he met Arsenal in the first round of the knockout round, and Bayern Muni also missed the quarterfinals!

And the champions' Arsenal are honest, Szczesny's appearance is not convincing. Of the three candidates Courtois, Casillas and Neuer, Courtois, who was the best in the end, was elected.

After the many awards were announced, it was the Champions League best eleven. Li Zihan, Cristiano Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic lead the attack, then Mesut Ozil, Di Maria and Wayne Rooney in midfield, Godin, David Silva, Branislav Ivanovic and Marcelo in the back, and Courtois in goal.

From this best eleven, you can see how important Li Zihan was at Arsenal last season, the winners of the Champions League have always been the largest output club in the best eleven, often occupying three or four seats, and there are many best players in other positions, but only Li Zihan and Ozil were selected for the best eleven, and only Li Zihan got the position of the best in Europe

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that this championship was won by Li Zihan.

The final finale was the best player in Europe.

The candidates for Europe's best player are Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo, Bayern Munich's German god Manuel Neuer and Arsenal's leading striker Li Zihan.

The assessment criteria for the best player in Europe are the combination of club honors, national team table and individual ability, so everyone thinks that the winner of this year's European best player should be the German goalkeeper Manuel Neuer. His table at Bayern Munich is very good if it is better to encounter a change. Li Zihan in the state, maybe he can still move forward with Bayern Munich a few steps, and in the national team, he led the German team to win the world championship!

Then there's Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese striker who led Real Madrid to the last four of the Champions League last season, and if they hadn't met Li Zihan, they would have been able to reach the final and win their 10th Champions League title in the club's history. Although Cristiano Ronaldo has not won the honor of the national team so far, it is understandable considering that the Portuguese team was almost taken away by him.

As for Li Zihan, his performance in the club is undeniable, but so far, he has not been selected for the national team lineup, let alone the World Cup, this world-class top competition has almost nothing to do with him.

Therefore, everyone thinks that the one with the best chance is Neuer, followed by Cristiano Ronaldo, and finally Li Zihan.
