After all, Barcelona and Real Madrid are still earth teams.
Barcelona used to be high, but after playing two semi-finals with Lazio last season, it was knocked down by Lazio and returned to the ground.
However, the match between Manchester United and Lazio was given such an interesting title by the English media.
"Defend the Earth!"
Lazio is an alien team and Manchester United is the earth guard. If Manchester United can beat Lazio, it will be considered as a successful defense of the earth.
Actually, this game really deserves such a name.
Before Manchester United’s home game against Lazio, many famous football players and professionals in Europe were enthusiastic about Manchester United’s suggestions and references.
Mourinho, who has had many experience against Lazio, said in an interview that he had given Ferguson a message about how to deal with Lazio.
"… Lazio’s characteristic is that their ball is very smooth. Once Lazio is allowed to play the football, it will be very difficult for them to attack. The most important thing is that they can’t make the football run smoothly."
Mourinho told reporter that this was his advice to Ferguson.
In addition, AC Milan coach allegri also told Ferguson through the media that "physical fitness is very important, but more importantly, if physical fitness is distributed reasonably, if the physical fitness is finished at half time, the half-court team will definitely collapse …"
Juventus coach Delli, who just played against Lazio, also said, "They are very fast, which is their biggest feature and threat. We should try our best to reduce their time …"
In addition to these coaches, there are many famous football players and experts who advise Ferguson in various ways.
Naturally, all these people who help Manchester United so privately have one purpose, that is, to hope that Manchester United can beat Lazio.
So one Manchester United team combined the wisdom of other teams.
This scene is really like the ball force in Hollywood sci-fi blockbusters in the United States to jointly fight against alien invaders
Some English media have given Manchester United a new name called "Man-Earth Coalition"
Changsheng has another interpretation of this matter.
"In fact, it is the six martial arts sects that besieged Guangding."
He said this to his coaching staff
Rudy Gonzá lez and dimatteo asked at the same time, "What do you mean,’ Six Wulin sects besieged Guangding’?"
Chang Sheng just wanted to open his mouth, and suddenly he felt that it was particularly troublesome to explain. He had to start with "Eternal Dragon Slayer" first, and then he had to explain what "martial arts novel" was. Explaining "martial arts novel" naturally bypassed Jin Yong’s introduction of the wrong person and went forward, which was the cultural background of martial arts novels in China …
Changsheng thinks that he has explained all these things clearly, and it is estimated that he will have to go to several chapters, that is, naked irrigation to make up the number of words
So he waved his hand. "Simply put, a group of people with different thoughts but high-sounding voices gathered in a place called Guangding under the banner of’ doing justice for heaven’ to jointly destroy the villain."
"We are the villain?" Dimatteo asked.
Ever-victorious nodded. "Of course, we are the big villains. We are besieged by those just men. The situation is very critical, but …"
His voice turned and he laughed. "The villain will win the final victory!"
Chapter four hundred and fifty Life is to fight and then triumph.
The media are talking about the cooperation of European football Qi Xin to help Manchester United beat Lazio.
Even in the press conference before the game, there were media reporters who got up and asked questions like Chang Sheng.
He said, "Does this phenomenon mean that Lazio is very unpopular?"
Chang Sheng sneered at this. He grunted, "This can tell how much Europe is afraid of us. It has done its utmost to beat us."
He shrugged his shoulders and spread his hand. "But I don’t care whether it is Manchester United plus Real Madrid plus AC Milan plus Juventus plus other cat, dog and dog teams that play against us … If someone thinks that this can beat us, I welcome them to try because they don’t really lose to us, they won’t be in vain."
The winning performance is very domineering. At Old Trafford, his momentum makes people feel that he is the owner here.
And journalists are also surprised by Chang Sheng’s confidence.
Maybe he’s bluffing.
Many reporters think so in their hearts.
Always winning doesn’t matter what journalists think. Anyway, they are going to win the game. These journalists’ thoughts are meaningless at all.
Compared with being confident, Ferguson is very cautious even at home.
He didn’t say before the game that it was an advantage to be behind by one goal, but said, "No matter how many goals we are behind, we are behind. I don’t know what the media will think of us. The hot spot is that Lazio is our home, but the score is behind us. This game is very difficult …"
The old fox hid his minions as if he were a cute Samoyed dog …
He wants to transfer all his bets to Lazio and let the pressure go to Lazio. Before the game, he tried his best to decompress his players.
He never talks about the factors that are beneficial to him, that is, repeating the difficulties of the game over and over again.
It seems that this is not his home but an away game.
The attitude of these two head coaches at the pre-match press conference is really interesting and tight.
The visiting coach is confident, but the home coach is cautious.
……
At the press conference before the game, both coaches also announced their respective starting lists for this game.
Judging from the starting list, both sides are the strongest players in the best condition.
A Premier League game breaks and Manchester United’s main squad starts.
And so is Lazio.
Just look at the starting list and you can imagine how fierce the game will be.
However, Manchester United’s starting list is not quite the same as when the two sides played in the first leg.
At home, Ferguson chose a strong attack array instead of defending as he did away from home.
Obviously, Manchester United is going to attack this game at home.
This is not unexpected.
If you don’t attack after losing a goal in the first round, then Manchester United is not Manchester United. It is necessary to attack. There is no suspense.
The key is to see how Manchester United attack.
