Chapter 120: The London Killer
After the game, Ringer scored twice and was voted Man of the Match for the first time since joining Bayern.
In the post-match interview, Ringer once again felt the feeling of a big star at the beginning, and many reporters gathered around to interview him.
"Ringer, how did it feel to score a brace in the Champions League?" This is Bai Hua's problem.
'It's good and exciting, I didn't expect to score in the Champions League so soon and score twice.
"Lin, I heard that Arsene Wenger is your favourite manager, do you want to show yourself in front of him this time?" This is a correspondent for the British newspaper The Times.
Ringer was a little speechless, at most he said that he was very grateful to Wenger for such words, when did he say that he liked Wenger the most? British journalists can really report anything.
'Arsene Wenger is a good coach but I didn't do anything to show for him. Although it was misinterpreted, it was not a big deal, and Ringer did not defend it, so he was polite.
"Lin, just now Wenger said in front of reporters, you can't play at Bayern, he will make an offer to Bayern in the summer, will you play under Wenger, who you like?"
"If I have the chance, I'll consider it." Ringer really didn't know what Wenger said, but it was okay to continue to be polite.
~~~
The impact of the Champions League is indeed much greater, with Ringer scoring twice and being one of only two players to score twice in a single game in the last 16 of the Champions League, the other being Barcelona's Lionel Messi.
Early the next morning, the front page of China's domestic sports media was once again occupied by Ringer, and even other media, especially on the Internet, which was also the first hot spot deservedly.
"Coming off the bench for one minute to score, Ringer became the first person in China to score in the Champions League"
"Five minutes to score twice, Ringer amazed the European continent"
At the same time, there are many reports about Ringer on the European side.
"Wonder Boy from China", this is the report of the German "Kicker": "In the Champions League round of 16 knockout match last night, Bayern's Chinese player Ringer performed well, scoring twice in five minutes after coming off the bench, directly extinguishing the last bit of fire that Arsenal wanted to reverse. When Bayern brought in the Chinese, I don't think anyone had any hope for him, but now he has guaranteed his playing time in Hollywood and can always contribute on the bench, a real wonder boy ~~~"
The British "Times" made a report called "London Killer from Asia": "The moment the Chinese scored two goals in a row, I think every Arsenal fan is very painful, it is like two daggers stuck in the heart of the Gunners fans, completely killing Arsenal's hope of qualifying." ”
"And I'm sure Arsenal's London rivals, Chelsea fans, feel the pain well. Just over three months ago on the other side of the world, the Chinese did the same to Chelsea fans, who were expecting their team to become the first London team to win the Club World Cup, but then the Chinese stepped up and struck a fatal blow to the heart, leaving Chelsea fans in great pain. ”
"I have to say that this Chinese is a real London killer, two of the best teams in London, Arsenal and Chelsea have been beaten by him ~~~"
Ringer saw the report and said that he was very wronged, although Arsenal was indeed stabbed twice by him, but it was Arsenal who had been stabbed three times before going out at home and had been seriously injured. Ringer believes that he is just going up to make up for Arsenal, which is still struggling in pain, and let them die early and overlive, which should be a good deed.
The British are really dog-biting Lu Dongbin.
The report on Ringer is only part of the report, Messi scored twice to lead the team to a big reversal of Milan, Cristiano Ronaldo broke his mentor's other Champions League dream with two goals in two games, and the Premier League has no team in 17 years to reach the quarterfinals of the Champions League, these are all hot topics.

After the Champions League quarterfinals were all decided, Hoeness went to the UEFA headquarters in Nyon on behalf of Bayern to draw for the quarterfinals.
Platini made a small restructuring of the Champions League last year, that is, from this year, the draw for the quarterfinals of the Champions League will no longer be divided into the upper and lower halves.
In the previous draw, the top and bottom half of the quarterfinals would be determined, and each team would know which two teams would meet the winner if they passed the quarterfinals, which would be more conducive to team arrangement.
This kind of draw rule is currently the most commonly used in football, such as the draw rule in the AFC Champions League, and most of the other continental cup competitions.
However, UEFA wants to restructure, cancel the upper and lower halves, and there is no draw for the quarterfinals, just a simple pairing of twos and twos, and it will be drawn again than the top four after the end.
The most direct benefit of this rule is that there is an extra draw, and UEFA has a better chance of making a move in secret.
In another Champions League match played at the same time as Bayern in this round, Malaga defeated Porto 2-0 at home thanks to Isco's excellent performance, and reversed Porto 2-1 on aggregate to enter the quarterfinals.
In the quarterfinals of this season's Champions League, there are three teams in La Liga, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Malaga; two teams in the Bundesliga, Bayern and Dort; Serie A, Ligue 1, and Turkish Super League each have one each, which are Juventus, Grand Paris and Galatasaray.
On March 15, at 12 noon local time in Switzerland, the draw for the quarterfinals of the Champions League was held in Nyon, Switzerland, and Ringer and his teammates watched the draw together at the club.
This year's Champions League final was played in London, England, and the invited draw was Premier League legend Michael McManaman.
The final was played in London, England, and the Premier League team suffered a team defeat in the round of 16, which is true.
As far as the eight teams in the current quarterfinals are concerned, it is recognized that Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern and Juventus are relatively strong, so the idea of these four should be not to meet in advance, separate the other four weaker ones first, and then everyone fights.
The first draw was Malaga, and the whole team began to hope for Bayern to draw next.
It was indeed a German team drawn, but it was Borussia Dortmund.
Malaga host and away Borussia Dortmund.
Then it continued to draw, Real Madrid faced Galatasaray home and away; Barcelona first and then the host face Grand Paris.
At this point, Bayern can only be separated from Juventus, and Bayern is selected as the home and away first, and the schedule is not very favorable.
For Bayern, this draw is not the worst, but it is by no means good.
Before the draw, the Hoeness guy fired in front of reporters: "Except for Barcelona and Real Madrid, no one will worry about our draw." ”
Well, his wish was fulfilled, and he did not draw Barcelona and Real Madrid, but drew the strongest of the remaining ones, Juventus.
As far as this quarter-final matchup is concerned, this group of Borussia Dortmund in Malaga is recognized as a "weak matchup" and the group with the lowest highlights.
However, the media can still find some highlights, Malaga is the first time in history to participate in the Champions League, as a dark horse reached the quarterfinals.
Dort and Malaga both played well in the group stage, Dort beat Real Madrid to become the first in the group, Malaga beat AC Milan to become the first in the group, and it was precisely because of their two teams that Real Madrid and Milan squeezed the two giants to the second place in the group, which contributed to the strong battle between Manchester United and Real Madrid and Barcelona against Milan in the round of 16.
The duel between Real Madrid and Galatasaray, this is an obvious duel between strength and weakness, Real Madrid has little problem in qualifying, the highlight is the Champions League Golden Boot duel between Ronaldo and the Turkish demon Yilmaz, both of whom have scored 8 goals in the Champions League and are tied for the first place in the Champions League scorer list.
However, this is not a big point of view, Real Madrid will definitely go further, and Galatasaray's quarter-finals are already their limit. It is Messi who is really competing for the golden boot with Ronaldo, who is currently only one goal behind Ronaldo.
Another highlight is the reunion of Drogba and Sneijder with Jose Mourinho, who are now both panning for gold in Turkey.
Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain are in this group, in general, everyone thinks that Barcelona is not a big problem in qualifying, and Grand Paris will create some trouble for Barcelona at most, but it will be difficult to stop the pace of the Cosmos team.
When they lost 0:2 to AC Milan in the round of 16, many people stood up and doubted that the Cosmos team was no longer good, but when they turned the game 4:0 at home, these voices turned into praises again. In short, Barcelona is still the super universe team, and Paris Saint-Germain may not be able to take on the task of protecting the earth.
The biggest attraction of this group of matchups is Ibrahimovic's return to Camp Nou, although Guardiola is no longer there, but Ibrahimovic was not only at odds with Guardiola during his time at Barcelona, he was at odds with many people in the Barcelona team.
As for Bayern Munich and Juventus, this group was the most watched match in the quarter-finals the moment it was formed. In general, Bayern should be stronger, but Juventus are not vegetarians, and Juve also have a small advantage in the schedule, and it is difficult to predict who will win or lose.
Bayern and Juventus are currently the top teams in their respective leagues, and Juventus is currently 9 points ahead of second-place Napoli in Serie A, and there is no problem in winning the Serie A title. Bayern are even more ruthless, 20 points ahead of second place in the Bundesliga, and are on the verge of winning the championship ahead of schedule.
In the head-to-head between the two teams in the history of the Champions League, Bayern has a small advantage.
In the 04/05 season, Bayern were beaten twice by Juventus in the group stage.
In the 05/06 season, Bayern and Juventus met again in the group stage, and this time Bayern won and lost at home and away.
In the 09/10 season, the two teams met again in the group stage, and this is the last time the two teams have met, and many players in the two teams have experienced that meeting so far.
Bayern first drew 0:0 with Juventus at home, but in this year's Champions League group stage, Bayern and Juventus did not perform well, but the French team Bordeaux was very strong, and won the first place in the group two rounds in advance, so that in the last round, Bayern must go to Juventus away, who wins and who qualifys, and those who lose are eliminated.
The situation was more favourable for Juve, who had home advantage and only needed a draw, but Bayern sent Juventus out with a 4-1 scoreline.
It was also that time that the two teams had a bit of a feud.
The draw for the quarterfinals of the Champions League is over, and the spinach companies in Europe have changed their latest odds to win the championship.
At present, Barcelona continues to maintain the first place with odds of 2.5, followed by Real Madrid's odds of 3, Bayern's odds of 5, Dort's odds of 8, Juve's odds of 12, and the odds of the other three teams are above 50, indicating that they are extremely unfavorable.
Before the draw, Juventus was still the fourth favored team, and now against Bayern, it has been downgraded to Dort.
At the same time, because of Juventus, Bayern's odds, which were slightly higher than Real Madrid, also fell below Real Madrid.

Ringer took out his mobile phone and posted a Weibo, "I met another difficult one".
Some time ago, he didn't have a chance to appear, and he didn't go on Weibo for a long time, because at that time, there were always some inexplicable guys who came to him to make trouble, which was annoying.
Bayern faced Arsenal in the round of 16 and now Juventus in the quarterfinals, and each time it is a big team, which is really not good luck.
The draw for the quarter-finals of the Champions League was held at 7 p.m. in China, and many fans watched the draw due to the limelight of Ringer's brace.
It is said that Bayern vs Juventus, which quickly became one of the hot news.
It was only a short time after Ringer's Weibo was sent out, and many replies came.
"Ball fairy, you can score twice, what are you afraid of Juventus?"
"Come on, Boss, the gunman, and continue to the zebras."
"Lin Qiuxian, I have to support the Bianconeri this time, your Champions League journey can only come to an end temporarily."
