After Lyon's opening goal, Malmo continued to play conservatively.

It's also a bit of self-knowledge, and Malmo are well aware of their position in the Champions League group stage.

Every opponent is enough to defeat them, even to the point of abusing them.

Therefore, every game needs to be won with the intention of losing less.

Malmo defended the line carefully, and it was not until the 59th minute of the second half that Lyon right-back Yale received the ball in front of the field and cut inside to the penalty area to score a long shot, and the score finally expanded.

After the goal, Yalai seemed to have a good feeling and was still actively looking for opportunities.

It didn't take long for the Malmo players to take it down.

Last season's Lyon was smooth sailing, with minor injuries in the middle of the season, but the overall problem was not big.

But this season seems to have been less lucky, and two main players have been injured in quick succession at the beginning of the season.

In the 71st minute, Zhang Chaoqiang sent a 45-degree diagonal pass on the right side of the front field to assist Lacazette to score with a header, directly locking the score at 3:0.

In this way, Lyon beat Malmo by three goals at home and easily won the three points in the first round.

But Yalai's injury is a concern.

This guy is indeed relatively mediocre in all aspects, otherwise he would not have been sold by Paris.

However, he has been a consistent veteran and was named in the Ligue 1 Team of the Season last season with Lyon's title.

Now that he is absent due to injury, Lyon's strength will definitely be weakened to a certain extent.

Lyon's home win over Malmo coincided with Real Madrid's four-goal win over Shakhtar Donetsk at home, with Cristiano Ronaldo scoring a hat-trick.

So Lyon and Real Madrid both managed to get three points, but Real Madrid temporarily topped the group by virtue of goal difference.

In the other matches of the first round of the Champions League, the other Ligue 1 team, Grand Paris, also won smoothly.

However, there were two upsets in the Premier League, Manchester United lost away to PSV Eindhoven and Arsenal lost away to Dinamo Zagreb.

The two top teams in the Premier League at the beginning of the 21st century now seem to be unable to withstand it.

[You strengthen your body through personal training, bounce +1]

After winning the first three points of the Champions League, Lyon returned to their daily training routine.

With injuries to Fekir and Jarlet, Lyon's starting line-up has changed over and over again, and it will take a lot of practice to keep the team running.

Zhang Chaoqiang improved his bounce a little more in training.

On September 20, in the 6th round of the French Ligue 1, Lyon challenged Marseille away.

After the first round of Ligue 1, Marseille coach Bielsa suddenly announced his resignation, which led to the Marseille management having to temporarily invite Spanish coach Michel, who coached at Olympiacos in Greece, to coach.

Michelle was one of the famous Real Madrid Five Eagles when he was a player, but as a coach, he is really not good.

has coached La Liga teams such as Sevilla and Getafe before, but the results are not satisfactory, otherwise they would not have been reduced to the level of going to the Greek league to eat.

Marseille asked him to coach, but he was in a hurry to go to the doctor, and he could only pull one on top in a hurry.

In fact, according to the French media, Marseille contacted Real Madrid B coach Zidane for the first time after Bielsa's resignation, but the other party refused, so he had to invite Michel from another Real Madrid department to take over.

Michel has been in charge of Marseille for four games, and although he has won the feat of six goals over promoted horses, he also has the dilemma of losing to Reims and Guingamp in a row.

Overall, there should be little hope for Marseille this season.

Away against a disheartened team, Lyon played fairly easily.

Valbuena first set up Alexandre Lacazette to open the scoring, and then managed to create a penalty that was doubled by Zhang Chaoqiang's shot.

Marseille pulled a goal back after 70 minutes, but it didn't matter.

Valbuena scored two goals in a row to help Lyon win 2-1 away, which was regarded as recovering some benefits from his old club.

After all, the peak of his career was all dedicated to Marseille.

Back in Lyon, everyone learned that Grand Paris had dropped points again, and they drew 1-1 away at Reims.

This time, Lyon not only continued to occupy the top spot in Ligue 1, but also took the opportunity to open up a two-point difference.

"Super Zhang, a special player with a super big heart"

In the latest issue of Lyon's "Progress", Zhang Chaoqiang once again appeared on the cover.

But it's not because of recent performances, it's because of past games.

"Lyon won four trophies in 2015, each of which had a key contribution from Super Zhang."

"In the French championship battle, Super Zhang scored a stunning free kick to help Lyon win the championship 1:0 three points."

"In the Europa League final, Super Zhang scored twice to help Lyon beat Sevilla 2:1 to win the championship."

"In the French Super Cup, Super Zhang scored twice again and gave a stunner to help Lyon defeat Paris Saint-Germain 2:1 to win the championship."

"In the UEFA Super Cup, Super Zhang helped Lyon defeat treble champion Barcelona 5:4 with a perfect performance of a hat trick and a stunner."

"In 2015, Super Zhang's performance was obvious to all."

"Without him, Lyon might not have won a championship."

The reason why the media is crazy about Zhang Chaoqiang is because the end of the year is approaching, and the selection of various awards is about to begin.

Therefore, Zhang Chaoqiang's brokerage company and the Lyon club made some moves to help Zhang Chaoqiang brush up his fame.

According to his agent, Jacques Freilo, this year's European Golden Boy Award is already in Zhang Chaoqiang's pocket, and there is basically no need to bother with it.

But at FIFA's annual awards ceremony, Zhang Chaoqiang needs to work hard.

Of course, the FIFA Golden Ball Award or something, it has nothing to do with Zhang Chaoqiang.

But it is absolutely necessary to try to get on the shortlist.

In recent years, the FIFA Ballon d'Or shortlist has been fixed at 23 players, and in principle, the 23 best players in the world are required to be selected.

But judging this thing, many times it needs to look at fame.

It's the same with being shortlisted.

Zhang Chaoqiang played in Ligue 1, which made him less famous than the other four major league players.

However, the hat-trick against Barcelona in the UEFA Super Cup is quite explosive, and the improvement of fame is more effective than the French League Golden Boot and the Europa League Golden Boot, and it is many times more effective.

Therefore, the agency believes that this is an excellent opportunity and must take advantage of it to prepare in advance for the Ballon d'Or in the future.

With Zhang's active performances last season, he has become one of the most promising clients of Mondale's agency, which has set various future plans for him, including a Ballon d'Or attack.

This is also a show of sincerity to some extent.

After the European Super League hat, Zhang Chaoqiang received a call from Raiola, a top European agent, and invited Zhang Chaoqiang to join the other party's brokerage company.

Mondale reacted quickly and immediately made various packages for Zhang Chaoqiang.

The Future Impact Golden Globe Award is one of them.

The current Zhang Chaoqiang is indeed far away from the Golden Globe Award, but he does have the potential to win awards in the future, so he naturally has to prepare in advance.

The top stars in European football are generally not too old to be nominated for the Ballon d'Or for the first time, such as the two most successful.

Cristiano Ronaldo was first nominated for the Ballon d'Or in 2004 and won it in 2008 after four years of running with him.

Messi was first nominated for the Ballon d'Or in 2006 and won in 2009 after three years of running.

Therefore, Zhang Chaoqiang should take the opportunity to face Barcelona and work hard to complete the first finalist in his career.

In addition to being shortlisted for the Golden Globe, Zhang Chaoqiang's real competition is the Puskas Award.

The ultra-long free-kick against Bordeaux and the long-distance run against Barcelona had a chance to compete for the Puskas Award.

However, whether it will win the award or not is still unknown for the time being.

But at least promote it more and make yourself more famous, and the hedge prize is more beneficial.
