Chapter 201 Gentle Township and the Devil's Schedule
In the eighth round of the league, Manchester City is a guest in London to face the Hammers to help West Ham United.
Considering that Lily Collins lives next to London, Lin Quan sent a message to Lily Collins before the game, asking if she would like to come to watch the game.
Lily Collins had never watched a football game before, and she was very curious about Lin Quan playing football, so she readily accepted the invitation and came to the London Olympic Stadium.
The camera on the scene quickly captured her figure, and the director frequently switched the camera to Lin Quan and Collins.
The strength of the Hammers is mediocre, and they did not cause too much trouble for Manchester City on their home court.
After 90 minutes, Manchester City defeated their opponent 3:1 and won eight consecutive victories.
Lin Quan performed well in this game, contributed two goals and one assist, arranged three goals for the team, and won the best player of the game without any suspense.
This record has created Manchester City's team history record and is their best start since the team was founded more than 100 years ago.
If they can beat Chelsea in the next game away, then they will tie Chelsea's 05-game winning streak in the Premier League created in the 06/9 season.
At present, there are only three teams in the five major leagues that have maintained a complete victory.
In addition to Manchester City, there are Barcelona in La Liga and Rome in Serie A.
Although it has been criticized by the outside world, Martino's Barcelona has an excellent record in the league.
Neymar integrated into the team perfectly and provided Barcelona with strong offensive firepower in the frontcourt.
As for Roma, under the leadership of the young coach Rudi Garcia, they played the best start in team history.
As long as this momentum is maintained, Roma is very likely to win the fourth league trophy in team history.
……
After the match against West Ham United, the Manchester City soldiers did not return to Manchester, but flew directly to Moscow in London.
This week, Manchester City will usher in the devil's schedule.
On the 20th they played an away game against West Ham United, on the 23rd they played an away game against CSKA Moscow, and on the 27th they returned to London and went to an away game against Chelsea.
In a week, Manchester City will play three away games, one of which is located 2500 kilometers away from a foreign country.
After this round of the game, Manchester City's players will peel off their skin if they don't die.
It is also because of the long journey and continuous combat that the outside world is not optimistic about whether Manchester City can match the opening streak created by Chelsea that year.
Although Chelsea will also go away to challenge Werder Bremen, Germany is much closer to England than Russia.
Moreover, Werder Bremen's strength is not strong, and there is no extremely cold weather.
So it is also playing an away game in the Champions League, the physical consumption of Chelsea players will be much less than that of Manchester City.
"Hey, there was a chance to break the record of Chelsea's start against the sky in the first phase of Mu, but now I'm afraid the probability is less than [-]%!"
"Yeah, as long as you don't have to go to Moscow and change to another away game, Manchester City's winning rate can be greatly improved."
"This schedule is a bit too devilish!"
"Actually, the FA is still helpful. Although they have arranged two away games for Manchester City, at least these two away games are in London. After the away game in the Champions League, you can return to London to prepare for the game. You don't need to go around again. Ran!"
"Last season, all the Premier League teams fell outside the quarter-finals. This record is really a shame for the world's number one league. This season, the Premier League has greatly increased its emphasis on the Champions League!"
……
Lily Collins usually doesn't pay much attention to football, but after learning that Lin Quan is a football player, she pays attention to this kind of news.
Seeing the negative comments of Manchester City fans on the Internet, she also became worried, and couldn't help sending Lin Quan a message:
"I heard that your recent schedule is very difficult?"
"Yeah, that's why I'm so anxious that I can't sleep now!"
"Really? How do you feel like you're lying to me?"
Lily Collins was full of doubts about Lin Quan's words. The opponent is a professional player, so he shouldn't be in such a bad state of mind, right?
"Okay, I admit I lied, the reason I couldn't sleep was because I was thinking about a beautiful girl!"
Lily Collins sent Lin Quan a cheek-holding emoji, as if you continue and I'll see how you want to perform.
"I checked. Moscow is 2 hours ahead of London. Your inability to sleep may be affected by jet lag."
Lily Collins glanced at the time. It was almost nine o'clock in London, and it was eleven o'clock in the evening in Moscow.
For a professional player, not falling asleep at eleven o'clock in the evening can indeed be regarded as insomnia.
"The female detective sees every detail!"
"Come on, let me tell you a few ways, try it, and go to bed if it works!"
"What if it doesn't work?"
"Then I can't save you!"
Lin Quan sent a pouted expression in the past.
Lily Collins gave him a head-knocking emoji when she saw it.
Lin Quan quickly typed out a line of words: "Come on, Miss, I can bear it, don't need to pity you!" with a struggling expression.
"Can't you be more serious, guy?"
Lily Collins replied with two expressions of rolling her eyes and wiping sweat.
"I've always been serious in front of others!" Lin Quan replied with a smug expression.
rogue! !
In a residential house in Surrey, the 17-year-old girl couldn't help but twitched her lips when she saw the reply.
Immediately, her expression restrained and became serious:
"Okay, don't make trouble."
"You find a music with a slower tempo, play it on a loop, and lie down in a position that is most comfortable for you.
Empty your mind after lying down, don't think about anything, keep a calm mind, take a deep breath slowly, and exhale slowly..."
"How about it, does it work?"
"no!"
Lin Quan returned a bared expression.
Lily Collins waved her fist angrily and wanted to rush to Moscow to beat someone up.
"Why didn't it work, did you not do what I said?"
Lily Collins made several questioning expressions.
"I can't find such music in my phone, why don't you call me and sing it to me!"
"Think beautifully!"
Although he said so, Lin Quan's phone rang in the next second.
……
Early the next morning, Lin Quan got up early.
Glancing at the phone, it was unexpectedly dead.
After charging the mobile phone, humming a little song and singing, Lin Quan went out in a happy mood.
Thinking of Lily Collins singing for him last night, Lin Quanxin felt warm inside, as if the temperature in Moscow had increased several degrees.
However, his teammates felt that Moscow was a terrible place.
Before the game, Pellegrini specifically asked his assistant about the weather conditions. For Manchester City, the most difficult thing in this game was not the opponents on the field, but the weather outside the field.
"According to the weather forecast, the temperature at night will drop to around zero degrees Celsius!"
"Will it snow?"
"It's hard to say. It might be. If there is rain or snow, it's better to pray that it's snow. At this temperature, rain is more troublesome than snow. If the players get wet from the rain, it will definitely will get sick!"
The rain that is close to zero degrees Celsius keeps falling, and the body heat of the team members will be lost rapidly. Over time, frostbite is possible.
"Well, we have to change our tactics!"
Pellegrini made a decision. He didn't dare to let the players fight for a long time in this temperature, so he planned to launch a fast break at the beginning, trying to establish the lead as soon as possible, and then replaced the main players and replaced some young players to play backhand fight back.
Doing so can reduce the physical exertion of the main players as much as possible, while ensuring the European record, it can also save energy for the next game against Chelsea.
However, the opponents think as much as they do!
"GOAL!!!"
"In just 13 minutes of the game, CSKA Moscow broke through the gate of Manchester City. The goal was their winger Tosic!"
"It's unbelievable. In the face of the mighty Manchester City, CSKA Moscow did not keep conservative. Instead, it chose to attack Manchester City, and seized the opportunity to score first. Now the pressure has come to Manchester City!"
In the commentary seat, the guests were very surprised by this result.
Before the start of this game, the outside world was more optimistic about winning ten consecutive victories on all fronts. They had just defeated Bayern Munich's Manchester City in the previous round of the Champions League group match.
However, none of them expected that CSKA Moscow's combat effectiveness would be so strong that they could suppress Manchester City at their home court.
"If Manchester City lose this game, there may be three teams with 6 points in Group D, and they will win each other, and the situation of qualifying will become confusing."
"This is good news for Bayern Munich, but for Manchester City fans, I'm afraid it's not the scene they want to see!"
On the sidelines, Pellegrini and the assistant coaches are discussing something.
"The temperature is too low. The warm-up effect before the game is gone now. The players have cooled down and need to warm up again. The opponent's ability to adapt to the cold environment is better than ours. It is a bit risky for us to play against them at the beginning! "
"That's right, I should have taken it back just now, and waited for the opponent's three axes to pass before attacking!"
"Okay, let's play like this, wait 10 minutes before launching an attack, and try to equalize the score!"
Manchester City's coaching staff quickly unified their opinions, and then conveyed their latest instructions to the players on the field to let them play steadily.
Therefore, after the re-kick-off, the Manchester City players did not rush to attack, but patiently passed the ball, getting every player to move and complete the warm-up as soon as possible.
After CSKA Moscow succeeded in the opening attack, they planned to retreat to play a defensive counterattack.
But after they settled down, they found that Manchester City was not in a hurry to attack, but instead fell in the backcourt.
This made CSKA players feel very puzzled: Is this giving up resistance?
The opponent gave up resistance, should we seize the opportunity to play a few more attacks and try to get more goal difference?
The players were a little tangled, and CSKA Moscow's coach Slutsky was also a little tangled on the sidelines.
After playing for more than ten minutes, Manchester City gave him the same feeling.
He didn't feel how strong the opponent was, at least much weaker than Bayern Munich they had met before.
Considering that they had a negative goal difference before this game, if they can't score a few more goals in this game, even if they beat Manchester City, I am afraid that they will fall in the standings because of the goal difference.
Therefore, Slutsky hesitated again and again, and finally decided to strengthen the offense to see if he could make another one!
Regardless of Manchester City's true combat effectiveness, they have to strive for a few more goals in this game, taking advantage of the opponent's poor state.
In this case, even if the goal difference is not as good as Bayern, it can at least suppress Manchester City.
The fans at the scene saw the home team aggressively attacking the top of the Premier League on the field, and they were all excited.
"See, this is the strength of the champion of the Russian Super League. The top of the Premier League is completely vulnerable to our Russian Super League champion!"
"Hehe, the Premier League brags all day that it is the world's number one league, but is their No.1 at this level? In my opinion, the strength of the Premier League may not be as good as our Russian Super League!"
"Let's not talk about Manchester City, last season's Real Madrid didn't take any advantage when they came to our home court. Here, we are invincible!"
The score and the advantages on the scene made the fans of the Russian Super League full of confidence and were very proud.
In recent years, the Russian Super League has received crazy capital injections from the oligarchs. Under the Jinyuan football storm, many teams have changed their guns, introduced a large number of stars, and their strength has made great progress.
But because Russia is far away from the center of Europe, the attention they receive is far from being comparable to that of the five major leagues.
This made the fans of the Russian Super League very unconvinced. They had long wanted to teach the teams in the five major leagues a lesson and prove their strength!
And Manchester City is just an appetizer. When Bayern Munich visits them at home next month, they will overthrow the defending champion and shock fans all over the world!
It's not just the CSKA Moscow fans who are arrogant, their players are also feeling confident at this time.
In the 23rd minute, CSKA Moscow midfielder Keisuke Honda organized the attack.
Seeing Lin Quan rushing towards him, he didn't choose to pass the pass to his teammates, but became competitive and played tricks in front of Lin Quan, intending to play tricks on him.
Keisuke Honda is very dissatisfied with Lin Quan. He feels that his strength is not inferior to the opponent, but it is because he is not playing for a giant team in the five major leagues, so he is far from the opponent's high attention and external evaluation.
For this reason, the Japanese star intends to transfer to Serie A giants AC Milan to prove himself.
But before the transfer, he had the opportunity to defeat Lin Quan in a one-on-one duel, showing his strength to the world in advance.
"Oh, pass him!"
"Beckham of the East, let this kid know how powerful you are!"
Seeing that their own star wanted to single out Lin Quan, the fans of CSKA Moscow were all excited.
They are very confident in Keisuke Honda's strength, and for Lin Quan, they know that their opponent is very famous.
But after looking at the first half, I felt that the opponent was nothing special, and he didn't show the strength to match his fame at all.
Therefore, they were all full of confidence in Keisuke Honda's heads-up, and wanted to see Lin Quan deflated.
Lin Quan saw that Keisuke Honda didn't pass the ball immediately, but planned to pass him, so he bumped into him without saying a word.
Bang, with a loud noise, Lin Quan knocked the Japanese who was playing flower work to the ground like a bulldozer.
Keisuke Honda was dumbfounded, and the fans at the scene were also dumbfounded.
The script is wrong!
However, before they could react, Lin Quan had already dribbled the ball towards CSKA Moscow's half court and killed it!
