Green Life

On the evening of April 1st, the Liverpool players completed their third training session and dined at the Melwood Restaurant.

Tonight they collectively watch the first two UEFA Champions League games to see how their possible opponents in the next round will perform.

"Hey, do you know? Isabella and I have a baby, and I'm about to name it. Do you have any good suggestions?" Mark Qin asked solemnly.

"Puff puff"

Lucas wiped the rice grains from his mouth, and looked at him like a monster, "Are you kidding me? This is too fast!"

Hobbs and Aurelio were also confused, "Uh, are you Chinese used to having children so early?"

Mark Qin ignored them, and said intoxicatedly: "His father is a football superstar. I think he should become a basketball superstar in the future. It is better to have another baseball star. Then we will become a sports family. What do you think?"

The three of them looked like you were absolutely sick.

"Okay, let's get down to business, what do you think is a better name? Jerry? No, it's a mouse..."

Mascherano, who was not far away, covered his face with three fucking clubs, causing me to lose a thousand pounds!

"The game has begun," a teammate shouted outside.

"I went to watch the game, but you really have to help me think about it when you look back. I'm not good at naming names. This is a big event in my life," Mark Qin stood up and said.

The three of you look at me and I look at you, a little incapable of accepting.

"Hey, Javier, bring it," Mark turned the corner and said to Mascherano with a smile.

It seems that this team really has no sense of humor, so gullible, Mascherano is deeply saddened.

Of course, he is even more sad about his pound. He regrets it very much now. With the IQ and sense of humor of his teammates, why should he bet with Mark Qin.

Is it my IQ too? Think carefully!

I didn't even realize that today is April Fool's Day, these three people can go shit...

Ma Keqin took the extra money and stuffed it into his butt pocket, thinking that he really answered the famous saying of Mascherano's later generations: There are really no educated people in the team...

"goal~al~al,

Wayne Rooney, Manchester United leads Roma 1-0 away, precious away goal", the commentator on the TV shouted frantically.

Manchester United's lead is a high-probability event. Roma does not have any possibility to compete with them now. Mark Qin is concerned about whether Ronaldo has scored.

In another Inter Milan vs. Barcelona match, Messi didn't play at all. He was injured and couldn't play in both rounds of the quarter-finals. This was a godsend for Mark Qin!

"goal~al~al, Wayne Rooney, 2:0, Rooney scored twice, Manchester United has entered the semi-finals with one foot!"

Everyone in Liverpool shook their heads in unison, looking disappointed. Roma is so weak that they can't even give Manchester United a break. This result will only make Manchester United work harder to catch up with them in the league.

2:0 is also the final score. In another Barcelona away game, they beat Inter Milan 1:0, and the teenager Bo Yang made a contribution.

The happiest person among the crowd was Mark Qin. There was not much suspense about winning or losing, but he was too happy when neither of the two competitors scored a goal.

The so-called enemy's pain is happiness, the ancients did not deceive me.

...

On the morning of April 2nd, the entire Liverpool team set off for London by bus. This time, the crowd of fans was much smaller than that of the Double Red Club. Therefore, whether the game is important or not depends not only on the competition system, but also has a deep relationship with the local culture. .

They will play the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals at Arsenal's home Emirates Stadium tonight.

If you were to choose a top-ranked team in England's semi-finals, regardless of the results but only the magnificence of the football, then it would be Arsenal. Mark Qin used to like watching their football very much.

The passing is quick, the movement is flexible, and the small-scale coordination is dazzling and colorful, especially Cesc Fabregas. With him in the Arsenal midfield, it is like a sophisticated machine.

This is the stadium where Mark Qin will set foot for the first time in his life. The same five-star club cost Arsenal a total of 500 million pounds, and the professor had to tighten his belt for many years to pay off his debts.

"If Arsenal doesn't build this stadium, maybe they will still be terrible opponents to win the championship, because then they won't let Henry go so easily." Gerrard, who was sitting next to the Emirates Stadium, was far away. looked at it and said.

"But this stadium has also established their background as a giant, and it will bring a great leap forward to their economy in the future."

Mark Qin knows that this stadium will triple Arsenal's match-day revenue in the future, approaching over 100 million.

Having said that, let’s mention the club’s main sources of income, which are basically divided into match day income, sponsorship and advertising income, event bonuses and broadcast dividends.

In the past, the team mainly relied on tickets and advertising sponsorship, but as the Premier League broadcast contract became more and more valuable, the proportion of broadcast dividends became more and more important, which is why the Premier League is getting richer and richer.

"Hey, let me, please let me go." At around six o'clock in the evening, two young and beautiful girls came to the VIP position in the stands of the Emirates Stadium. They both wore peaked caps and sunglasses. Sprinkled with silver ash, dazzling.

"Huh, we're here, Miss Isa." Ai Ming sat down on the chair, took off his hat, and stroked his hair.

The girl next to her sat down quietly and looked around at the majestic stadium.

Today, Ma Keqin asked the club for two VIP seats. He is now qualified to let his sister and girlfriend sit in a quieter place to watch the game.

The audience at the Emirates Stadium is notoriously gentleman, and most of them are urban white-collar workers, so it can be regarded as one of the most civilized stadiums in the Premier League.

Not to mention verbal abuse and fights, even if the home team scores a goal, people may not say a word, but applaud in relief, just like watching an elegant musical.

Ma Keqin couldn't be more assured about the safety here, the ideal place for the visiting team...

Of course, for the home team, this is a bit depressing. Anyone who works hard on the court to play a beautiful match and then score a beautiful goal, but finds that the audience is still silent, that feeling is like~ Hmm (understand by myself) silent.

Wenger once complained that he believed that the best home game is Anfield, where the sound waves made every time can greatly increase the adrenaline of the players on the field.

Mark Qin has a deep feeling for this. Playing at Anfield is like performing in front of a family who is good at praising. Even if you make a mistake, they will always support you.

Every player who has been to Liverpool, not to mention their views on the club, is definitely a thumbs up to the fans.

Even Bashen who suffers from the Second Second Disease.

When Ma Keqin and the others came to the stadium, they were first shocked by the grandeur of the stadium, and then shocked by the inexplicable atmosphere.

This is the quarterfinals of the Champions League, no matter how you enter, it feels like entering a grand theater waiting for the opening. Except for some noisy voices, there is no unified cheering sound.

Comparable to the NBA's Toyota Center.

"My brother is out, my brother is out," Amin shouted while pulling Isabella.

Isabella stared closely at the boy who came out of the tunnel to warm up, and missed him a little. They hadn't seen each other for many days.

Mark Qin looked up. The overall slope of the seats in the Emirates Stadium is relatively flat, and the distance is relatively far away. He did not see his sister and daughter-in-law.

Just now Benitez has announced the starting lineup in the locker room, and he is on the list.

In Sine's live broadcast room, Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu sat upright early, waiting for the start of the game.

"We see that the two teams are coming out to warm up separately," Zhan Jun said while looking at the live broadcast, "Currently the Premier League teams are very strong in the Champions League. Last night's game, Manchester United has already made the next move. It can be said that the semi-finals are basically the same. "Certain"

"Yes, that's right," Zhang Lu nodded in agreement.

Zhan Jun continued: "Today, the other three top players in the Premier League will all be on stage. Our live broadcast is the first round match between Arsenal and Liverpool."

"This time," Zhang Lu analyzed, "Liverpool has won 14 consecutive victories in all competitions. It can be said that the momentum is like a rainbow. Everyone knows that Arsenal only won one victory in March."

"The point of view in this game is whether Arsenal can bottom out. They have lost the league. The only competition they can fight for is the Champions League. Or Liverpool can continue their strength in the league to the Champions League."

Zhan Jun went on to say: "There is also the Chinese star Ma Keqin who is concerned by the majority of domestic fans. Now many people are looking forward to his performance in the Champions League."

"Hey, yes," Zhang Lu said, "Mark Qin scored five goals before. At that time, there were still many sayings that he scored the goals, but after the Old Trafford night, this kind of saying has disappeared. basically disappeared.”

...

In the live broadcast room of Sky Sports, Peterson and McCarthy are discussing the duel between Mark Qin and Cesc Fabregas.

"When Mark Qin made his debut, I still remember his match against Arsenal prince Wilshere in the Champions League, and Mark won that match," said Meka.

"Now that Mark has met Arsenal's young king, can he still help the team completely suppress Arsenal's midfield like last summer?"

Perhaps because he was born in La Masia, Cesc Fabregas has the same characteristics as that group of people. He is not tall, has a fast foot frequency, and fast passing thinking.

Like Mark Qin, he must be the core in order to realize 100% potential, but unlike Mark Qin, he does not have Mark Qin's abnormal position adaptability.

The sadness of Cesc Fabregas is also because he was born in La Masia. In Barcelona and the Spanish national team, he does not have a position in the midfield core. He can only play as a midfielder.

Mark Qin always thought that if this kid hadn't returned to Barcelona foolishly, his achievements might have been even higher, because he played as a midfielder and center forward in Barcelona, ​​but he just never played the core of the midfield.

Those years were a complete waste of his talent, because his dribbling and shooting were not particularly outstanding, and only his brain was really top-notch.

When he figured it out and finally arrived at Chelsea, the aura was gone, and there was no room for improvement. He gave Barcelona the years when his life should really reach the peak, and it was regret and disappointment that he left behind.

Therefore, the choice of professional players, especially stars, is particularly important in the critical period. Once the wrong team is selected, the delay may be several years or the only opportunity for improvement.

Mark Qin and his teammates have finished warming up on the field and have returned to the locker room. The turf of the court is very short, and the speed of the ground ball will be quite fast. Each team will choose the most suitable turf according to their own characteristics of play.

Arsenal's advances are basically short and medium passes on the ground. Once they make long passes, they must have found a gap.

Benitez is talking about tactics in the locker room, "Space, if we give Arsenal too much space in the backcourt and let them play with coordination and speed at their home court, it will be difficult for us to get out of the whole body"

"Mark, Javier (Javier Mascherano), I want you to give me a solid mark on Cesc Fabregas, as long as he is in your defense zone, don't give him the opportunity to pass the ball forward easily"

"Our defenders must always pay attention to their anti-offside. This is their housekeeping skill. They are good at penetrating the defense from the ribs. This time we have to shrink the formation..."

Khan, it’s getting late again, this chapter is one chapter late, and I have to find and make up for the later ones, I’m so tired, this is the end of not saving the manuscript, but the scattered people will not stop updating, hehehe!
