Chapter 160 The Season Continues
Barcelona has been eliminated, and the debate over who is the world's number one player seems to have come to an end.
At least after this game, public opinion supports the glory of glory one-sidedly.
"Manchester City's victory is simply the ultimate of personal heroism"
"...Think about it, at that time, Manchester City was like a ship wandering in the storm sea, and it could capsize at any time. Who led Manchester City to safely sail out of this violent sea? When Rong Danrong scored his first goal, the Camp Nou Stadium was silent. Barcelona fans were used to Messi galloping across the court, passing all the opponent's defensive players one by one, and then hitting the football into the goal, but when the same thing happened to them, they were still unprepared now..."
"In Camp Nou last night, there was only one most dazzling star - Rong, the entire Barcelona team, provided him with background. If Barcelona is the most powerful team on this planet, then Rong is undoubtedly the most powerful individual."
It's overwhelming, full of words of praise for glory.
Of course, there is also a derogatory view of Messi.
While many media praise the glory, they will take Messi out and compare it.
In such an important game, Messi failed to score a goal and was completely suppressed by glory in his personal performance.
But the main reason for letting the media do this is actually because... Before this game, Barcelona media said that Rongguang was qualified to be Messi's opponent afterwards. It seemed that he put Rongguang on the position with Messi, but many people could smell a sense of self-righteous superiority from it.
This feeling is very annoying.
Especially the supporters of Zhao Rongguang hate it.
So later, a fierce verbal war was triggered on the Internet.
Barcelona and Messi fans are in a group with Manchester City and Glory fans.
In the end, Argentina fans also joined the team to maintain Messi's honor as the "King of Football".
Unfortunately, there are not many Chinese fans participating in the battle group. Because of some reasons that everyone understands, many Chinese fans can only curse on their own domestic Internet and cannot directly fight against their opponents.
Fortunately, the performance of glory made them proud.
Who is qualified to be an opponent for whom?
Now it's clear
It would be unceremonious if the media blackened people.
Messi is almost hacked by them, especially the English media...
The local media in Barcelona can't even pay back the words now, who made Barcelona lose?
Who made Messi missed a goal?
In two rounds, Rongguang scored four goals and Messi scored one goal. If Barcelona media still say that Messi performed better and stronger than Rongguang at this time, it would really make the public angry...
So although Messi and Barcelona were both hacked, the Barcelona media could only endure and bear it.
At the same time, I recorded the account and met again next time, when I was collecting debts from Manchester City.
In the past, there was indeed no grudges, love, or hatred between Manchester City and Barcelona, but from now on, the two teams have it.
※※※
Manchester City was able to eliminate Barcelona and enter the Champions League semi-finals, which was far beyond the expectations of many people.
But glory is very normal, even said to be... indifferent.
Manchester City fans should be happy for at least one week when it comes to eliminating Barcelona.
But Rongguang was the first to come to the team's training ground the next day after the game.
The Champions League has come to an end, but the season will not come to an end.
Next is the league.
Glory now has two goals, one is the league championship and the other is the record of Arsenal.
No matter which goal you are, you are not allowed to lose this season.
In the weekend's league, Manchester City returned to home against Birmingham.
Chelsea's opponent is Bolton.
Both teams are at home, and the opponents of both teams are not very strong.
It is impossible to expect a boat capsized in Chelsea's gutter. So it's better to do your own thing.

Just as Manchester was still immersed in the atmosphere of Manchester City's elimination of Barcelona, the 34th round of the league had arrived.
Manchester City faces Birmingham at home.
In this game, Benitez made a large rotation of the team's lineup.
Because there is no rotation, there is no enough starting lineup.
In the match against Barcelona, although Manchester City won and eliminated Barcelona, they also paid an extremely painful price...
Center Berbatov and midfielder Matuidi were injured in the game.
In addition to these two people, there were also people who were injured.
I just didn't feel it during the game, and I realized that I was actually injured until the game ended.
Lucio announced a muscle strain after the game.
In addition to these three players, some players have minor injuries, some do not affect the game, and some will definitely not participate in the next league.
In addition, the players have also had serious physical overdrawns, which can be seen from training.
The players' level of investment in training is obviously not as high as before, and the players are very tired.
In view of this situation, Benitez also adjusted his training arrangements, reduced technical and tactical training, and increased restorative training.
Let the players recover more.
Even so, in the league three days later, Benitez sent a large number of substitutes and even reserve players.
However, Manchester City, who played at home, was not underestimated by this.
Especially after Burnley's past lessons, everyone knows that Manchester City is not the less main players they play, the worse they perform.
The difference in determining how Manchester City performs in a game is not the number of main players, but whether Glory has played.
Sure enough, in this game against Birmingham at home, Manchester City still beat Birmingham at home.
This time, unlike the game against Burnley, Glory is no longer the protagonist. Although he scored a goal in the game, other Manchester City players performed better.
From this game, it can be seen that Rong Guang's condition is not particularly good. I just experienced such a fierce game, which has had some impact on Rong Guang's body and mind.
But despite this, he still led the league scorer list with this goal, leading Rooney, who ranked second, and three more goals than Drogba, who ranked third.
In the end, the competition is not only the league champion, but also the league Golden Boot.

After the game against Birmingham, Manchester City still led Chelsea in the league standings by four points.
But next they will face their city rival Manchester United in the league.
The outcome of this game will likely determine the ownership of the league championship this season.
If Manchester City loses to Manchester United, Chelsea will narrow the gap to one point.
At the same time, Manchester City faces the semi-finals in the Champions League, and their opponent has been confirmed to be Inter Milan led by Mourinho.
There are rumors that Mourinho will cause trouble for Manchester City in the Champions League and then give Chelsea the opportunity to overtake Manchester City in the league. At the same time, Chelsea will also make trouble for Manchester City in the league, distracting Manchester City in the Champions League.
In the end, the bamboo basket was useless...
So if Manchester City loses to Manchester United at home, the league championship they win may be lost.
Therefore, Manchester City attaches great importance to this game.
But there is a bad news, that is, three days after this game, Manchester City will go to challenge Inter Milan away... In two consecutive games, it is difficult for the opponent to deal with, and this is not a good thing.
There is another bad news, that is, the volcanoes in Iceland began to erupt, and the erupted ash floated towards the entire European continent under the influence of the wind. Some airports have suspended the take-off and landing of planes.
Manchester, as a place close to Iceland, will naturally be affected first.
Manchester City hopes UEFA can change the date of the semi-finals, but UEFA has clearly informed them that this is absolutely impossible.
If the plane cannot be taken at that time, the whole Manchester City team may have to take a bus to travel through England, then cross the English Channel, then cross France, cross the Alps, and arrive in Milan, Italy...
This journey is too long and will seriously affect the players' training, physical health and mental state.
At that time, with such a tired body, how will Manchester City beat Inter Milan away?
These are all problems, but the most important thing now is the enemy in front of you, the same city derby with Manchester United. Benitez can only let the team do their best to win Manchester United first. As for Inter Milan... he is not that far away now.
They have a full week to prepare for the match against Manchester United.
This week, Benitez can adjust the players' condition and physical fitness to ensure that the team is in the best condition when facing Manchester United.
After playing Barcelona, he was worried that the players would plummet.
Because after just experiencing such a thrilling game, you usually feel in poor condition.
He can only try to reduce the impact of this situation.
