Leverkusen training base.

The members of the coaching staff are in full swing of a meeting.

Suddenly, a shrill voice frightened the birds into scattering.

"Defense? No way! ”

"Does Bayer Leverkusen still have 23-year-old Lucio?"

"The opponent is Lee who owns Arsenal"

Woohoo!

Old man Toph pounded the tactics board.

Dino reminded in a whisper: "It's Arsenal with Lee."

Thanks to the heavy investment in the summer window, Bayer Leverkusen, who is not subject to 50+1 transfer restrictions, continues to be strong in the Bundesliga, and is second only to Bayern Munich in the standings after more than half of the season.

"All over Europe is thinking about how to fend off Arsenal's attack, or just break through their defence!"

"Neither of these extreme scenarios is suitable for Leverkusen."

'We have to step up the penetration in the midfield.'

"Lee, who was put forward by Arsene Wenger, is limited in what he can do when he is in position! Everton and Monaco gave the answer. ”

Old man Toph tapped on the tactical board, looked at the confused eyes of the coaching team members, and tried to argue: "I am the head coach who knows Li in the world!" ”

on the training ground.

Ronaldo and Leno are in shooting practice.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The Colombian superstar blasted a powerful long-range shot in a row!

He's enjoying everything Bayer Leverkusen has to offer and can't wait to prove that he's still the world's top midfielder.

J Luo Bucai.

The 14-year World Cup Golden Boot, the super world wave shocked the world!

Real Madrid was strong during the period.

In the 2014-15 season, he scored 13 goals and provided 13 assists, and was named La Liga's midfielder of the year.

In the 2015-16 season, he was plagued by injuries and his playing time was drastically reduced, but he was still the second midfielder to create goals per game.

In this historical period, in terms of commercial value and popularity, almost no one in the midfield position can steadily surpass Ronaldo.

It's a pity that after Zidane took over, he clearly told him: 'Your style does not suit my tactical system. ’

The lineup configuration is like falling in love many times, there is no right or wrong, only suitable and unsuitable.

Zidane said that Ronaldo is very similar to his younger self, but he can't compete with Modric, Kroos and Casemiro in the midfield, and he can't shake the BBC combination of Ronaldo, Benzema and Bale in the forward position.

Ronaldo's strength has not regressed, returning to the national team to lead a group of T1-T2 teammates, and can also play pleasing attacking football.

Depressed, Calhanoglu continued to throw the balls onto the pitch with a large basket of balls.

He still couldn't get his Bayer Leverkusen No.10 shirt back.

It was Lee last season.

This season it's Cristiano Ronaldo.

Ronaldo and sponsor Adidas have a contract requirement that they must wear the number 10 shirt at every club.

Real Madrid were satisfied.

Naturally, Bayer Leverkusen can also be satisfied.

"Hakan, why are you slowing down?"

Leno asked, confused.

Ronaldo squeezed out a bright smile: "Hakan, take a break, you are the core of us." ”

Calhan Olu was shocked and continued to speed up the throwing of the ball!

The Champions League matchday is on schedule.

Li Kang and his teammates took a plane and arrived at Düsseldorf International Airport.

The sky was gray and gloomy.

The cold wind blew the billboards hunting.

At the pick-up gate, there is a sea of people.

Security personnel stood by the cordon on both sides.

“Lee！！！”

“Lee！！！”

“Lee！！！”

The bitter cold of North Rhine did not dampen the enthusiasm of the people.

Quite a few fans from other clubs also arrived at the scene.

But the sentiments of Bayer Leverkusen's homegrown fans are mixed.

Some people think that Li Kang is the hero who made the club's history, and others think that he is a traitor.

More than the "treatment" of Cross in North Rhine.

The Arsenal club bus drove slowly, and extreme fans on both sides of the road threw boat flares.

So that the security personnel could not tell for a moment whether it was an "attack" or a "welcome".

"Don't go near the window, I suspect the glass is going to shatter in minutes!"

"It's a good thing that the Bundesliga club Lee used to play for was not Stuttgart or Bremen, and their fans would have taken off the bus tires!"

"I'm only now able to feel the benefits of the Stamford Bridge Library!"

Welbeck and Maguire chattered and complained about the behaviour of extreme fans.

Boulder and the coaching staff were discussing the pre-game set-up, and they were a little worried about whether Old Man Toph would be sprinkling sand on the pitch.

Alvaro Morata and Li Kang swapped seats to bring themselves closer to the window.

He patted his companion on the shoulder and comforted: "I didn't celebrate when I scored the Real Madrid goal for Juventus, I was overwhelmed by the applause of the fans of my old club, I was praised by the media, in fact I was worried that the goal was offside again." ”

Li Kang smiled and nodded.

Pre-match press conference.

After a brief handshake between Arsene Wenger and Old Man Topp, they took their respective positions.

The two have a good relationship, having played each other since the 2001/02 Champions League, winning and losing each other, and always boasting about each other after the game.

"Mr. Topp, Lee is on the opposite side of Leverkusen, will it be a horror movie for you?"

Horror movies.

In the Sanya King season that year, when the old man Toph met Ferguson's Manchester United, he once described the other party as a horror movie.

The Bayer Leverkusen boss shook his head: "Lee made history at the club, this will always be his home, and no matter what the outcome of the game, it will be a heartwarming mime for me. ”

The other side.

Arsene Wenger was also being asked questions from reporters.

'All the players at Arsenal are in very good shape.

"Except for Mertesacker, who needs to rest, the other positions will be sent to the main players."

'It's going to be a tough game, but we're confident we'll win.'

It's another spell.

For six years in a row.

Arsenal did not win in the first leg of the Champions League knockout round!

Bayer Arena.

All seats were removed.

Two waves of black and red and red and white churned in the stands.

All kinds of slogans shook in the wind.

Ship flares spew thick red fireworks.

“CTV5！ CTV5！ Good evening, audience friends! ”

"Welcome to the first leg of the 2016-17 Champions League round of 16!"

"Bayer Leverkusen host Arsenal!"

'Last season, Arsene Wenger's side were knocked out of the tournament simply because of the disadvantage of away goals!'

"Tonight, will he be able to make a shame? Can they break the curse of Arsenal's six-year winless first leg in the knockout rounds of the Champions League? ”

"Let's wait and see!"

Player tunnel.

Calhanoglu and Bellarabi stick to the "old-school" tradition of dueling: even if they are once familiar teammates, they should not show any enthusiasm when they are opponents.

In fact, the two are not very old.

Calhan Olu is not much older than Li Kang.

He is very envious of Xhaka: how can he get mixed with Arsenal as a young core of the middle and upper reaches of the Bundesliga?

Kai Havertz and Brandt hugged Li Kang excitedly.

"Crow's mouth, last season was the one you said we would meet Lee in the Champions League!"

"Isn't that a good thing? Originally, I thought we would only be able to step on the same turf with Lee in the charity race! ”

Leno smiled and gently patted the Arsenal No.10 on the shoulder.

"Welcome home."

It's not lazy, last year I could still change 6000 words a day, this time I can't stand it, my head is too dizzy, I can't concentrate at all, everyone must pay attention to the body, and we must eat thoroughly cooked food
