Chapter 158, Giants and Challengers
"Yelo. Yelo Yelo!! ”
Andy Gray, the commentator for Sky Sports England, chanted.
On his side, Chelsea legend Gianfranco Zola clasped his head in his hands.
Veteran United captain Robson was shocked.
"Unbelievable! Unbelievable goal! Yelo single-handedly helped Malaga draw Chelsea! God, is this still the way a human can score a goal? ”
Andy Gray exclaimed.
Many of Chelsea's players have their heads in their hands.
Cech turned his head to look at the football in his goal, Lampard patted the turf, Drogba put his head in his hands and looked at Yelo in disbelief as he was celebrating wildly.
One-to-one.
The scoreline was a bit less favourable for Chelsea.
Not only did they not win at home, but they also allowed Malaga to score an away goal.
'It's a shame that Chelsea conceded a goal at the last minute and the win flew away.' Andy Gray shook his head and said.
And it wasn't long after that goal.
The referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.
"It's over! It's over! Malaga's late equaliser helped them walk away from Stamford Bridge with a draw and an away goal! ”
Duan Xuan was very excited when he said this.
This result is not enough to guarantee that Malaga will be eliminated at home.
But at least, Malaga has a certain advantage.
The second leg was played on Malaga's own home turf.
Chelsea will have to score if they want to qualify, and Malaga will have to be more relaxed.
After the end of the game.
Players from both sides didn't celebrate much either.
It's just a draw, after all.
Distance to advance.
There are still ninety minutes of fighting between the two sides.
After the game.
Chelsea's stars couldn't get past Yelo when they were interviewed.
"I thought we were defended enough to limit him but the goal conceded at the last moment taught me. This is not enough. Lampard shook his head as he said this.
"There's also the second leg, Malaga is a tough opponent and you can never take it lightly when you have a player like Yelo in your team!" Drogba, who watched Ye Luo enter the penalty area to complete the equalizing goal, said helplessly.
"Advantageous? I don't think we took advantage of it, it was just a draw, it's not something to celebrate, Chelsea are strong and we can't take it lightly! Ye Luo said in an interview.
The Champions League quarter-finals are not like the quarter-finals, with two weeks in between.
The first and second legs of the quarter-finals are played one weekend apart.
There is less time to rest and adjust than in the quarterfinals.
It's certainly going to be a big test for Malaga.
So in the 28th round of the league, in the away game of Mallorca, Pellegrini made a big rotation.
Of course.
Ye Luo started as always.
The media rarely comments on this now.
Prior to this, many media were criticizing Pellegrini's overuse of Yelo, believing that if Yelo continued to use it like this, it would be a matter of time before he would get injured.
But it's late in the season.
Ye Luo was still alive and kicking, and he didn't see any fatigue on the court, and he looked very energetic.
So now everyone knows that Ye Luoke is an iron man.
It's not without ironman type players.
But there are really very few players like Ye Luo, who are fast, technical and unnatural, and whose physical fitness is so good that people are jaw-dropping - some media even analyzed Ye Luo's goal distribution and found that many of his goals were scored at the end of the game.
Because at the end of the game, many players' physical fitness has declined, their concentration is not so concentrated, and their explosiveness and reflexes are not as sufficient as when they are full of energy, but Ye Luo still maintains a very good physical condition at this time - it can be analyzed from his sprint speed, many games can be analyzed at the end of the game, he can still sprint at the fastest speed!!
It's like the equaliser against Chelsea.
If Chelsea's players are as fit as they were at the start of the game, if Yelo is as exhausted as any other player.
It's hard for him to score a goal like that.
In fact, many teams will have a Demoman off the bench as a back-up, just waiting for the opponent to be sent to attack the opposition defence when their fitness drops.
There are also quite a few famous substitute wonders in history.
Of course.
If there is a player who is capable, he will rarely accept the position of a substitute.
If you have the ability to start, why accept a substitute?
Adequate physical fitness.
It's also a rare talent for an athlete.
It's like this away game against Mallorca.
By the eightieth minute of the game.
Malaga are still 1-0 down away from home.
Outcome.
Ye Luo scored the equalizer in the 83rd minute.
In the 89th minute of the game, he broke through and won a direct free kick, through which Yelo beat Mallorca.
Helped Malaga complete the comeback away from home.
In 28 league games, Malaga scored 75 points.
Real Madrid and Barcelona both won in this round of the league, and the difference between the two sides has not changed.
There are 10 games left in the league.
Compete for the championship.
It's also in the sprint phase.
Who would have thought that Malaga would still be at the top of the standings at this stage. Before the start of this season, many people said that Málaga would definitely fall behind, they would eventually be pulled away by Real Madrid and Barcelona due to injuries, fitness, bench depth and other factors, and their most reasonable position should be to continue to compete for a Champions League qualification, but now, Málaga is still in the title contender group and is still at the top of the league table. With 10 rounds of the league remaining, Málaga has shown the world that they are indeed capable of competing for the title! As long as their captain, their core, their number one star Ye Luo is still running on the field! ”
This season's total playing time is the highest among any player other than the goalkeeper! Even if you add the playing time of the goalkeeper players, he is second only to Valdés and Casillas! He has played almost every minute of his season this season, 28 league games, nine Champions League games, four Copa del Rey games, and by the time the season is more than two months old, Yelo has completed 43 games, and theoretically, he still has at least 11 games to play, and if Malaga finally progresses to the semi-finals of the Champions League, then at least 13 games remain! He has the physical strength of an iron man, and at the same time, his body seems to be made of steel, and so far, Ye Luo has not missed even a second of the game due to injury! ”
After this round of the league.
Almost all the media are discussing Ye Luo's performance.
34 league goals, 19 Champions League goals.
This goal count has everyone on the sidelines.
This number of goals also firmly suppressed Messi and Ronaldo on these two fronts.
Messi scored a hat-trick in two consecutive league games in the 27th and 28th rounds of the league to increase his goal tally to 32.
But still, he was pressed behind by Ye Luo.
The competition for La Liga goalscorers this season is also fierce.
"This is the era of Yelo, Messi, and Ronaldo!"
After the game.
Andres, a commentator for Radio Corbe, wrote in his own column.
Of course, this remark has caused a lot of fans to discuss.
Proponents argue.
Yelo's goal count and ability are here.
It is not too much to say that he and Messi Ronaldo are tied for hegemony.
But there are also reasons for the rebutters.
"Triwizard Rivalry? How many Champions Leagues do you have, how many Golden Balls? ”
Some fans mocked.
Even some media outlets have joined the debate.
But the words are quite polite.
The reason for this is that neither Madrid nor Catalonia wants to say anything to offend Yelo, who will definitely leave Malaga.
Where will he end up?
Therefore, these mouthpieces are very restrained.
lest it give Ye Luo a bad impression.
There are also a lot of anti-blacks.
Even the fans on both sides have acted as enforcers.
It is necessary to find out those fans who are anti-black.
Resolutely put an end to the appearance of offensive remarks against Ye Luo.
Time.
Public opinion is very lively.
In the midst of this boil.
The second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals is in full swing.
Barcelona and Real Madrid, who came first, eliminated their respective opponents one after another.
At Camp Nou, Barcelona beat Basel 4-0.
Messi scored twice and raised his Champions League goal to 17!
Real Madrid won 0-0 at home and Cristiano Ronaldo also scored, but he came off the pitch with a somewhat unpleasant face.
According to media reports after the game.
Ronaldo was very unhappy with the team's approach of shrinking the defense after taking the lead, because he felt that Mourinho did not fully release the right to fire in attack like Guardiola did for Messi and Pellegrini for Yelo, so that Ronaldo got the opportunity to brush up the data, which led to him falling to third in the scorer list.
Mourinho, on the other hand, doesn't actually see anything wrong with his approach.
Because as a manager, what he needs is a win, a solid win.
After the end of the first day of competition.
Day 2: Race Day.
The first game to appear was Bayern Munich's home game against Benfica.
In the end, Benfica lost 3-0 at the Allianz Stadium.
Bayern Munich also made it to the last four of the Champions League very strongly.
So far.
Three of the Champions League semi-finals have already been produced.
Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich.
They are all well-known top giants.
In the number of Champions Leagues.
Real Madrid dominate nine Champions Leagues.
Barcelona have four crowns.
And Bayern Munich is also a giant with four Champions Leagues in hand.
The three teams have a combined total of 17 Champions League trophies.
And the two teams, Malaga and Chelsea, regardless of who makes it to the last four, have an embarrassing number of Champions League trophies: 0.
So, either Chelsea or Malaga are in the semi-finals.
What they have to face is the encirclement and suppression of super giants.
"Malaga and Chelsea will be the Champions League challengers this season, in a sense, Malaga and Chelsea are both rising stars in the golden era, and the three super giants they face are all traditional top giants, and this season's Champions League semi-finals battle is definitely a story between a challenger and three giants!"
The authoritative French media [European Football] wrote on the official account of social media.
When I went to play football in the morning, my ankle was broken, and I heard a clear "pop", and I couldn't get up on the spot, and my teammates were scared.
I went to shoot a film in the afternoon, but fortunately I didn't hurt my bones.
However, this injury also cost me the season, and I will have to recuperate for at least two months.
Fortunately, my hand didn't hurt and I was able to code words.
There's another chapter later.
