Chapter 110 The data flies

On November 25, in the fifth round of the Champions League group stage, Lyon came to Ibrahimovic's hometown of Sweden to challenge Malmo away.

In fact, Ibrahimovic is a native of Malmรถ and started his career in Malmo.

Based on the current points situation, Lyon only need a draw to seal the promotion in this game.

But for the Lyon players, everyone has to try for a big win.

On the one hand, it is to compete with Real Madrid for the first place in the group, and on the other hand, it is also to pursue personal data.

Malmo, as the weakest opponent in this group, is of course used to brush up on statistics.

So the whole team of Lyon came to Sweden with the good intention of competing for the first place in the group and brushing the data, and started the game happily.

The game officially began, and Malmo showed a strong desire to win at home, fighting aggressively, attacking decisively, and once suppressed Lyon a little on the field.

As a strong player in the Swedish league and playing at home, they still have some strength, otherwise they would not have beaten Shakhtar Donetsk 1-0 at home.

But this state of affairs lasted only fifteen minutes.

In the 16th minute, Malmo's attack was cut off in front of the Lyon penalty area, and Zhang Chaoqiang got the football and started quickly.

"Watch out for that guy!!"

In the shouts of Malmo coach Hareal, Zhang Chaoqiang dodged the down-to-ground tackle of Swedish midfielder Leviki in a small jump, and immediately ran wildly with the ball.

The Malmo players started the game well and were in high spirits, so they chased back to the defence.

But Zhang Chaoqiang ran faster and faster, and the distance became farther and farther, and the Malmo players slowed down and gave up before they even chased half the court.

Zhang Chaoqiang dribbled the ball through the midfield for more than ten meters, seeing that the attention of the opposing defenders was on him, and Lacazette had begun to circle behind the opponent's defense.

So he pushed it with his foot and immediately stuffed the ball over.

"Pass beautifully! Single Knife!! โ€

Lacazette just bypassed, Zhang Chaoqiang's pass arrived in time, and it was a single knife to take the ball directly.

Easily shook off the goalkeeper and went straight to the goal.

Alexandre Lacazette continued his good form in the league over the weekend.

Leon ran in both directions, high-five each other in celebration.

Through a quick counter-attack, Lyon took a 1-0 lead away.

Zhang Chaoqiang thought that this ball could help Malmo reduce the fire to some extent.

Unexpectedly, they were quite angry, and they still maintained a strong desire to fight.

It's just that I don't dare to press too much, for fear that I will be stabbed by Zhang Chaoqiang.

In the 29th minute, Lyon's attacking round.

Zhang Chaoqiang took the ball in front of the penalty area and pedaled twice, and Montenegro midfielder Rodic moved half a step, but did not lose position.

Without high-speed dribbling as a cover, Zhang Chaoqiang's static bicycle is not too confusing.

So he knocked the ball back, intending to get Valbuena back together.

Unexpectedly, Jordan Ferry suddenly jumped up, basically intercepted the ball in the form of a steal, took two steps forward, directly swung his legs sideways, and volleyed vigorously.

Ferry hit a kick and the ball flew all the way into the Malmo goal.

"Good shot!! Ferry scored from distance, and Lyon led 2:0! โ€

"This goal is another assist from Zhang Chaoqiang, he has already completed the assist brace!"

Zhang Chaoqiang himself didn't expect that he would brush up on an assist so soon.

The first assist was a deliberate pass to help the team break the deadlock as soon as possible.

But this second assist was completely picked up for nothing.

After Lyon took a two-goal lead, Malmo's morale finally dropped.

So the Lyon crowd took advantage of the victory and pursued it, intending to continue to expand the score.

In the 36th minute, Tolisso broke through on the right side and crossed, and Zhang Chaoqiang inserted a foot pad on the left side of the penalty area.

I thought the ball would go in, but I didn't expect it to be high above the crossbar.

"It looks like Zhang Chaoqiang's goals don't feel as good as assists, and he should work harder to get an assist and a hat." The domestic commentary also ridiculed.

Until the end of the first half, the score remained at 2:0.

At half-time, Fournier gave the news of another game.

Real Madrid temporarily leads Shakhtar Donetsk 1-0 away.

"On the premise of making sure to win the game, we should aim for more goal difference."

At the start of the second half, the manager's instructions were still there, and Lyon was immediately chased back with a goal.

Malmo hit back from the start, with Serbian striker Djurdjic receiving the ball in the box.

Originally, the other party had been stuck in the position of his fellow countryman Bisevacs, and there was no good chance.

But Umtiti stepped forward and slashed right on the top of the opponent's foot.

This time, Djurkic fell to the ground with his foot, and the referee directly gave a penalty.

Swedish striker Rosenberg converted the penalty and Malmo pulled one back.

'Although Lyon are almost certain to qualify from the group, they should try to beat Malmo and try to win the group.'

"For the Champions League, being top of the group can largely avoid a strong opponent in the round of 16."

The two teams returned to a one-goal gap, and the French commentator was also a little worried.

The two teams continued to stalemate for the next twenty minutes.

In the 70th minute, Valbuena and Tolisso split the ball after a two-to-one cooperation in the front, Zhang Chaoqiang received the ball on the right side, flicked the outside instep of the situation, shook off the Swedish fullback Hornatim in front of him, and directly picked the ball to the goal.

In front of goal, Alexandre Lacazette leaped to his feet and headed past Malmo centre-back Brolsen.

"Good pass!! Zhang Chaoqiang picked up a pass to assist Lacazette to score, and he has completed a hat trick of assists!! โ€

"I believe that most of the Chinese fans who are watching the game are waiting for Zhang Chaoqiang's performance, although he did not score, he got three assists in a row, and directly assisted to wear a hat!"

"This is the first assist in Zhang Chaoqiang's career and he didn't disappoint everyone!"

Lyon once again extended their lead to two goals and the Malmo players were confused again.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lyon completely sealed the victory.

In the 75th minute, Lyon grabbed the ball back and quickly advanced to the front, and Ferry sent the ball straight to the goal.

Zhang Chaoqiang kicked the ground under his feet and rushed forward quickly.

Swedish defender Bengtsen, who was closely marking Zhang Chaoqiang, followed closely, but as soon as he ran two steps, he found that he was going to be thrown away, and whether he was in the penalty area or not, he directly reached out and pulled.

Zhang Chaoqiang, who accelerated forward, was jerked by his arm, and his body shook and he was about to fall to the ground.

But at this point, he was just one step away from the intended spot, and at the same time saw that his own player was following up on the other side.

So he fell to the ground in a sliding position, reached the tip of his left foot with force, and gently pushed the football.

The ball was crossed, and Valbuena raised his leg in front of the goal, and the ball rolled into the Malmo goal again.

โ€œGooooooalโ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€

"Another goal from Lyon! Kill the game completely!! โ€

"This goal is another super Zhang assist, he has four assists for the whole team, and he directly completed the assist!!"

"Straight stopper, knockback, pick pass, fall to the ground and cross the pass, every assist of Zhang is obtained in a different way!"

According to the data, the last time a player completed an assist in the Champions League was three seasons ago, when he completed the assist in the 2012/13 Champions League group stage when Paris Saint-Germain beat Dinamo Zagreb 4-0 at home.

"Now, after three years, Super Zhang has become another player with a Champions League assist, and he happened to get it in Ibrahimovic's hometown of Malmo!"
