Chapter 30, the Champions League is the Champions League, and the league is the league

In everyone's expectation.

The Champions League competition is finally in full swing.

The matches for Barcelona and Real Madrid both start on the first day of match.

For Yelo's fans in these two games, the highlight is the state of Messi and Ronaldo.

Barcelona host Plzeň.

Plzea Plzeň certainly won't be able to pose much of a threat to Barcelona at the Camp Nou.

Barcelona got off to a flying start with a 4-0 home win over Plzeň.

Messi is in crazy form.

He scored in the first minute of the game after a pass in the box.

Helping Barcelona get off to a dream start.

The thirty-second minute of the game.

Messi scored again.

It was a direct free-kick.

Messi's free-kick drilled into the net from the corner.

In the second half, Messi completed a hat-trick with a penalty kick in the 80th minute of the game, and Iniesta scored from distance in the last minute of the game to lock the score at 4-0!

The other side.

Cristiano Ronaldo's performance was also outstanding.

Facing Juventus at home.

Real Madrid won 2-1.

It was Cristiano Ronaldo who helped Real Madrid score both goals.

He scored from distance in the 13th minute and doubled the score with a header in the 72nd minute.

Although Real Madrid was finally chased back by Juventus.

But Juventus scored in the 90th minute of the game.

The timing of the goal was too late and there was not much time left for Juventus.

In the end, Real Madrid got off to a flying start with a 2-1 win at home.

This first day of competition is over.

Messi scored a hat-trick, and Ronaldo scored twice.

They all showed crazy goalscoring ability.

The media around the world are exclaiming the play of the two.

"At the end of the first day of the Champions League, Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have shown amazing form, and they may have the same goal: to give Yelo a dismissal!"

The media is now also willing to hype the tripartite hegemony of Yelo, Ronaldo and Messi.

Why?

Because there's a gimmick!

"It's scary!"

"Tut-tut, these two are crazy!"

"Even if they work so hard, they can't compare to Ye!"

In Glasgow City, Scotland, inside the training base of Glasgow Rangers Club.

Arsenal's players are also talking about yesterday's Champions League game.

Of course, the focus is on Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, who made the media almost all focus on these two after the first day of match.

Arsenal's match is scheduled for the second day's matchday, and the opponent is also a team from the United Kingdom, Scottish Premier League giants Celtic.

Same with the Dragon Kingdom.

There were also four teams in the British Empire.

They are England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland.

Historically, there have been people who wanted to merge into one English team.

But because of the rivalry between England and Scotland, the British team only appeared briefly at the 2012 British Ferry Olympics, when Britain formed an Olympic team named after the British team.

It is worth mentioning.

At that time, Manchester United legend, Welshman Ryan Giggs, played for the British team as an overage player.

It can be regarded as a fulfillment of Wang Laoji's dream of international competitions.

And at the league level.

England and Scotland also have their own leagues.

The competitiveness of the Soviet Super League is quite good in Europe.

Soviet giants such as Rangers and Celtic also often appear in the Champions League and Europa League.

Because of the sworn enemy relationship between Glasgow Rangers and Celtic.

So Arsenal were treated to Rangers in Glasgow.

As for their opponents, the Celtics.

Although Celtic is considered a giant in the Soviet Super League.

But compared with Arsenal, the strength is a little insufficient.

Therefore, on the training ground, Arsenal's players are unlikely to be as nervous as they are facing a big enemy.

Everyone seemed quite relaxed.

Ye Luo only smiled when he heard everyone's discussion.

But deep down, he also ignited a fighting spirit.

He knows.

These are two old rivals, and they are challenging him!

Although Celtic are playing at home, they are far behind Arsenal in every way.

Therefore.

The British media overwhelmingly believe that Celtic, playing at home, is unlikely to beat Arsenal.

In a preview of the group Arsenal are in.

No one thinks there will be any team that can threaten Arsenal's position.

Arsenal's first place in the group is almost a foregone conclusion.

As for the other three teams.

Porto, Celtic, Basel.

The strength is relatively close.

Porto are Portuguese giants.

Celtic are the supremacy of the Soviet Super League.

Basel is the Swiss superclass.

All three teams have a certain amount of dominance in their respective leagues.

And the gap between the three leagues is not too big.

In terms of strength, the Bols are relatively strong, followed by the Celtics.

But if you want to talk about the gap, it's actually not very big.

All three teams have a chance to finish second in the group.

None of them can threaten Arsenal, though, that's for sure.

It's just that the Celtic head coach has a different opinion.

'It's our home stadium, of course we can't raise our hands and surrender, we know very well how strong the opponent is, but we don't give up either, football is round, who knows what will happen? Let's wait and see! ”

He looked confident in his pre-match press conference.

He's not kidding.

It's about really thinking that their team can make a difference at home.

The English reporters present sneered when they heard that the other party was so energetic.

Although everyone is British. But there is no sense of compatriotism between England and Scotland.

Scottish media reporters were very satisfied with the spirit and fighting spirit shown by the Celtics, and vaguely looked forward to it.

Although they are also aware of the difference in quality between Celtic and Arsenal.

But as the Celtic head coach said.

It's football.

Football is round, everything is possible.

It's hard to beat the strong, but it's not impossible to do so on the football field.

What if Arsenal themselves are not in good shape in this game?

It's not impossible for Arsenal to overturn away from home, this is the Champions League, and Arsenal has always performed poorly in the Champions League.

The Champions League is not the same as the league.

What about Manchester City?

Their lineup is luxurious enough.

It's not that it's been repeatedly overturned in the Champions League.

Or those teams in Serie A.

Juventus are good enough in Serie A, they have won more Serie A titles than AC Milan.

But in the Champions League.

AC Milan's number of titles makes Juventus call Daddy.

The league is very strong, it doesn't mean that the Champions League is also very good.

Arsenal may be strong in the Premier League, but that doesn't mean they can get what they want in the Champions League!

So.

Celtic certainly have a chance.
