Chapter 230 Knockout begins
On February 2, the Champions League knockout round kicked off, but the first round between Cologne and Moscow needs to wait until the 16th, and there is another round of league before that.
Because Hoffenheim will participate in the first knockout round, the German media diverted their attention and did not pay too much attention to the league.
This made Stuttgart breathe a sigh of relief. They ranked tenth and needed to concentrate on qualifying for the European war next season, and did not want to die with Cologne.
The media doesn't care, of course they can paddle comfortably.
To this end, Christian Gross, who took over Stuttgart during the winter break, sent a half-main and half-substitute lineup.
Unexpectedly, Kakao suddenly exploded, and No. 13 minutes came a dragon.
To tell the truth, Lin Xiu had given away more dragons to her opponents, and this was the first time she enjoyed a dragon herself.
So Lin Xiu continued paddling for a while to see what else Kakao could do.
Of course, it is impossible to go one-stop twice, but in the 31st and 38th minutes, Kakao scored goals respectively.
Lin Xiu got serious and used the remaining 7 minutes to equalize the score. In the second half, he didn't give his opponent another chance. He defended until the last 15 minutes and scored two more goals.
The German media has become accustomed to the admission of five sons, and instead of making a lot of reports, they began to hype CSKA Moscow.
As a veteran team in the Russian Super League, CSKA Moscow naturally has its pride and is not afraid of Cologne.
Its head coach, Leonid Slutsky, led the team to the knockout round, regardless of success or failure, has already written a new history of the club, so naturally he has no scruples.
Facing reporters, Slutsky said: "Cologne is of course a good opponent, especially with a special player in their team.
However, our players are equally good, we have made full preparations, and we are at home, the advantage of the home field gives us a great chance to win this game. "
These remarks were supported by many Russian media.
However, the Zenit jumped out and poured cold water on it.
Zenit general manager Mitrofanov said: "As a Russian, I should support CSKA Moscow, but I have to say, they have no chance of winning.
Cologne has the best striker in the world, yes, I'm talking super show, CSKA can't stop him.
I think that all the teams in the world will surrender at his feet, which is why we made an offer of [-] million euros in the first place. "
Mitrofanov's remarks sparked a flood of criticism that he should not support foreign teams for the reasons of the regional derby.
In this regard, Slutsky said: "I understand the feelings of the people of St. Petersburg, they are already afraid and have lost the courage to win.
We are the Russian football, we will prove the combat effectiveness of the Russian team. "
Mitrofanov said: "The Moscow team has never been a representative of the Russian team, the St. Petersburg team is..."
So, before Cologne could speak, Zenit and CSKA fought first.
This is also normal. St. Petersburg and Moscow used to be the capital of Russia. The teams in the two regions have always disliked each other, and it is normal to tear each other down.
On the 21st, the Köln team arrived in Moscow.
The climate and site in the Moscow region are very different from the habits in Cologne, so it is necessary to adapt in advance.
When the bus drove to the hotel, Moscow fans shouted and shouted frantically at Cologne.
If there is no police escort, it must be served by various bricks and wine bottles.
The fans followed the bus to the hotel, set up the horns and bombarded the noise, intending to keep Cologne up and down at night.
After suffering a loss in Alkmaar, the club management has perfected the plan and responded to it.
First, I sent earplugs to everyone, and then complained to the competition supervisor.
The effect was not great. When CSKA sent people to drive away the fans, they left automatically, but when the CSKA people left, the fans returned immediately.
The guerrilla warfare was very smooth, and CSKA had nothing to do.
From the heart, they are quite willing to see this situation, so this is the only way.
Fortunately, the sound insulation effect of the hotel is good, and you can fall asleep with earplugs.
Daum is not someone who can swallow his anger. He publicly criticized CSKA Moscow in front of the media: "Despicable people will always use despicable methods. I can guarantee that they will never succeed."
Slutsky immediately cried out: "We have tried our best, but only the police have the power to arrest them, and we do not have this ability."
The head coaches of the two sides are arguing, and Lin Xiu is leading the boys to play mahjong.
Russian football hooligans are also notorious and their combat effectiveness is more sturdy. For safety, everyone naturally has some entertainment after training.
After being abused countless times playing games, Lin Xiu decisively introduced mahjong, an activity suitable for all ages.
To tell the truth, the sound of mahjong clattering is much hoarse than that of the harassers outside.
Although Lin Xiu is so relaxed, she is actually looking forward to this game.
The Japanese are also paying attention to this game, because during the winter break, CSKA Moscow introduced Keisuke Honda.
Since entering the team, Keisuke Honda has been the absolute main force of the team. Now that he is healthy and healthy, he must start this game.
This is the Sino-Japanese derby.
Before the game, the Japanese media wanted to ask Lin Xiu what he thought of Keisuke Honda, but the whole team in Cologne had closed management, and these people did not find the opportunity and could only wait for the question after the game.
Lin Xiu didn't have any opinions on Keisuke Honda, but simply had opinions on Japan, and naturally wanted to abuse Keisuke Honda.
Well, it would be better to make it like Kim Dong Jin.
But to be honest, when facing the strong, Little Japan is better than Bangzi. Even if Keisuke Honda is shaken to his knees, it is estimated that the Japanese media will make excuses for him.
Of course, these thoughts can only be buried in the heart. It is absolutely impossible for Lin Xiu, a senior, to compete with an ordinary Asian player.
lose share.
And that's it, game day.
When the entire Köln team entered the Luzhniki Stadium, there was a lot of abuse.
More than 8 home spectators shouted in unison: "Ula~kill*****~"
The momentum is amazing, but the content is harmless. Most of the team are not German, so they don't feel it at all.
Lin Xiu even wanted to laugh. In that case, it would be better to draw two pig heads.
The warm-up is over, and the two sides start their debut.
The home team starts with goalkeeper Akinfeev, backcourt Shenniko, Vasily Berezutsky, Ignashevich, Alexei Berezutsky, midfielder Aldonin, Sen Bellas, Gonzalez, Keisuke Honda, Krasic, striker Nechid.
Cologne starts, goalkeeper Du Zhenyu, backcourt Djuric, Hummels, Matip, Jeromel, Worm, midfielder Maniche, Petit, Nedved, Podolski, front Ronaldo and Lin Xiu.
The two sides guessed coins, Matip chose the venue, and CSKA Moscow naturally won the kick-off.
When both sides are ready, the referee blows his whistle and the game begins.
