Chapter 1387, Asian Derby
This high-profile matchup ended in a 3-3 draw.
Both teams were a bit disappointed that they couldn't get the three points they wanted.
After two rounds of the Champions League group stage, the standings of Group A are still very chaotic, and no team has an absolute advantage in qualifying.
In the first round of the group stage, Laco 2-2 Manchester City, Paris 3-0 Bayer Leverkusen.
After the second round of the group stage, Laco 3-3 Paris, Manchester City 1-1 Bayer Leverkusen.
Paris is currently at the top of the table with four points, Laco and Manchester City are tied for second with two draws, and Bayer Leverkusen, who have only one point, are in last place, but they are only one point away from Paris at the top of the table.
In the next three or four rounds of the group stage, Bayer Leverkusen will face Laco in two back-to-back matches, and both teams will be in desperate need of wins and points.
The domestic league continues to maintain a winning streak, which has become the norm for Laco, and this season Laco is very similar to last season, starting with a wave of consecutive wins to save points, which makes Yunsheng very satisfied.
What makes him even happier is that in the rotation of the AB lineup, young people have gradually become Laco's new force, setting off a wave of youth storm in La Liga, De Bruyne continues to lead the assist list, and Wu Lei's goals have been higher than Messi and Ronaldo.
In addition, although the team has been fighting continuously recently, there have been no serious injuries, which makes Yunsheng very pleased.
Fast forward to late October, with the third and fourth rounds of the Champions League group stage just around the corner.
Facing Leverkusen, which is the weakest player on paper in the group, Yunsheng gave the team a death order this time - it must win both games!
And this Bayer Leverkusen team has relied on the overall style of play to dominate the Bundesliga, and their star players are Kiessling and Son Heung-min in the attack.
The 191cm Kiessling is the backbone of Bayer Leverkusen's forward line, and his headers and shots are strong.
South Korean Son Heung-min, who just transferred to Bayer Leverkusen this summer, has quickly become the team's weapon to destroy the city, and his dribbling, speed and scoring ability are the weapons that Leverkusen rely on the most.
And this match is also known as the Champions League Asian Derby.
In fact, for Yun Sheng, he has long taken this statement inappropriately.
Back in the Bundesliga, the Asian derby between Cartbus and Eintracht Frankfurt was blown into the sky.
However, with the rise of the Chinese army in Europe in recent seasons, the so-called Asian derby is no longer watched by Chinese fans.
Asian Derby? We have more Chinese derbies?
Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League......
Bayern of the Bundesliga, Schalke 04......
Serie A's Juventus and Milan duo......
La Liga's Laco, Atletico Madrid......
Every year, the Chinese derbies of the five major leagues are a big one, and who is interested in paying attention to any Asian derby?
Even if the international ranking of the Chinese team is still not the top in Asia, it does not prevent Chinese fans from having great expectations for the Chinese national team in Europe.
And in this Laco vs. Leverkusen match, the contest between Lakohua and Leverkusen Son Xingmin seems to have been clear for a long time.
As a player in the same position, Son Xingmin is just a new star in the Bundesliga, and Wu Lei has beaten Messi and Ronaldo in the La Liga scorer list, is there any comparison?
In the third round of the group stage, Laco led 3-0 in the first half at Bayer Leverkusen's home stadium and completely established the victory.
And the three goalscorers are Wu Lei! A hat-trick by a Chinese player! Finished abusing Korean newcomers!
In the second half, Yunsheng adjusted the formation, allowing Wu Lei, Kaka and Riquelme to rest and replace them with J Ronaldo, De Bruyne and Pogba.
The three supernovas were still in excellent form, scoring twice in the second half, with Kevin De Bruyne and Paul Pogba providing an assist each and J Ronaldo brace to make it 5-0.
In the final stage of the game, taking advantage of Laco's somewhat slackness stage, Son Xingmin sneaked up and scored a face-saving goal.
In the end, the score of the game was fixed at 5-1, and Laco finally got his first win in the group stage of this season's Champions League.
Half a month later, Laco once again challenged Bayer Leverkusen at home, with only one point in three games, Bayer Leverkusen was already on the verge of elimination, and their chances of even finishing third were slim, and this game must not be lost.
Although the last game was a big victory, Yunsheng still treated this game safely and played with all the main forces.
The process of the game was very similar to the previous game, and it took only 45 minutes for Laco to take another three-goal lead at home and seal the victory.
Yunsheng did the same, sending out three young players in the second half, Carrasco, Romelu Lukaku and Kalidou Koulibaly, and in the final stage of the game, Carrasco made a clever pass after a trio, and Lukaku grabbed the goal in the box to make the game 4-0.
After the fourth round of the Champions League group stage, Laco finally picked up six points from Bayer Leverkusen.
The other two back-to-back matches between Paris and Manchester City were 4-2 at home to Manchester City and 3-1 to Paris at home.
There are winners and losers for each other.
After four rounds, the standings are close to clear.
Raco has two wins and two draws and has 8 points and is at the top of the table.
Paris has two wins, one draw and one loss, accumulating 7 points and ranking second.
Manchester City has five points from one win, two draws and one loss, ranking third.
Bayer Leverkusen, who are hard to find a win, are still at the bottom with one point.
In the final two rounds against Manchester City and Paris, Laco only needs to win a game to secure qualification from the group.
After two straight draws in the opening group stage, Laco is finally back on track.
With the league holding on to the league and the Champions League group stage back at the top, Laco has been smooth sailing lately.
With everything going well for the club, the national team break that has been complained about by the European giants has come again.
As a big national team, the big team is about to face the invasion of the FIFA virus, and the current Laco is no exception.
The only thing that reassures Yunsheng is that many veterans in excellent form in the team have withdrawn from the national team, and there will be no injury and state impact.
In this national team match day, Yunsheng is most concerned, and it is also what all Chinese fans are most concerned about.
The final battle of the Huaguo team!
On November 14, at the Centennial Stadium in Montevideo, Uruguay, the Chinese team and Uruguay will fight for a precious place in the World Cup.
Although Uruguay were the semi-finalists of the last World Cup, many of the players in the Chinese team have made a name for themselves in Europe.
But neither team is at its best.
Uruguay's strength has declined severely, and in the parallel world of later generations, they barely qualified from the group in the 2014 World Cup, and were eliminated in the quarter-finals. The 34-year-old is getting older, and the two star players, Edinson Cavani and Luis Suarez, who have been the main players of their respective clubs, have almost never rotated in the multi-front campaign, and their fitness is also a problem.
Many players of the Huaguo team were injured and stopped, and they were absent due to injuries in this game, so they could not show their strongest strength, and the Huaguo team was fighting away from home today, and the journey was tiring, and the situation of the Huaguo team was critical today.
Can Gao Bo's Chinese team overcome the crisis away from home and return to the World Cup?
