The Premier League arsenal, the king of thermos cups

Chapter 193 That's the Highest Honor
Under the arrangement of security and staff, check into the hotel.

Zhou Yang packed his luggage, clothes, towels, cups and so on.

The time difference between the local area and London is not much, and it will not have a great impact on meals or rest.

He opened the window curtain and looked outside the hotel.

There are indeed a lot of reporters, of all kinds and shades. Sure enough, before the game, the media and fans are also the battlefield.

"Spanish fans and the media seem to be very hostile."

He played Real Madrid and got his first hat-trick, and North London rushed to report. When he came to Madrid today, he, the Arsenal midfielder, would face a certain amount of hostility.

Many media are also thinking about his situation, and many people are also paying attention to his performance.

Zhou Yang withdrew his gaze, left the room, and went upstairs to the restaurant for dinner with his teammates.

Madrid's arrangement is very simple. They will go to Atletico Madrid's home stadium Calderón for training in the afternoon, and go to the Bernabeu tomorrow after a rest in the evening. Of course, Wenger may have other arrangements in the middle. It seems that they will explain the content of the first round of the two sides or play on the tactical board. of.

After dinner at the hotel, take a short rest.

Turn on the phone, there is a lot of news.

"Arsenal arrived in Madrid and the players seemed average."

"Madrid, Arsenal will check into the hotel upon arrival and will start training there."

The major media tracked it in real time.

The Bernabeu battle is indeed eye-catching. With the arrival of the game, many false news will definitely appear.

The media are looking for all kinds of gimmicks before the start of the game, and if they can't find it, they will look for it...

Every move in the local area will definitely be watched. Where they go and what they do at Arsenal will definitely be followed by the media as soon as possible.

Gather downstairs at two o'clock in the afternoon.

The club staff drove the bus over and waited.

The more troublesome thing about away games is the change of food and accommodation. Some people will not be acclimatized, and they will not even feel comfortable living in their own homes in terms of rest. Knowing relatives and friends, and no fans cheering, everything will naturally not go well.

Turin played against Juventus. In Zhou Yang's view, the two sides almost scored 1-1. Bellerin scored the first goal, and then he scored the second goal at the end.

If there is a tie in the first round, the situation in the second round will be different, and it will even be dragged into overtime or a penalty kick. Then, judging from Arsenal's yellow card situation and Juventus' experience in European wars, the final result will be the winner. have no idea.

In many cases, the first round of the game can determine many things.

Of course, they did play well in the first round, but they were strong teams in the European competition, let alone leading by one goal. Judging from Zhou Yang's two lifetimes, they did not lead by a few more.

In the first round of the semi-final against Real Madrid at home, the main reason was that Real Madrid was caught off guard by a few breakthroughs, and they had an advantage in the first half.

One goal advantage.

Need to grasp well.

But that's no reason to relax.

Atlético de Madrid's home stadium is different from the Bernabéu stadium in the central city. The surrounding area is open. The periphery of the stadium is a bicycle lane and sports equipment field. It is suitable for exercise and leisure for the whole family. The sun is flat during the day, and some pedestrians who come out for cycling can still be seen .

The sun was still shining when they arrived.

Meanwhile, reports Madrid, Marca...

"Arsenal Club, go out at two o'clock and arrive at Atletico Madrid's stadium for training."

"The players and the coaching staff are properly arranged. Arsenal midfielder Zhou Yang is vaguely in a bad mood."

The major media, naturally, will not write nothing.

Zhou Yang looked at his phone, and he didn't know why he seemed in a bad mood. He couldn't just grin at the media?
……

Atletico Madrid's home court naturally has good conditions and facilities.

Those who don't know today thought that Arsenal played Atletico Madrid.

Get off from the underground parking lot, Zhou Yang followed everyone and entered the Calderon Stadium.

Time is not much for them, coming and going is also time.

The away game itself has many disadvantages, so there is nothing that goes well.

Playing the Bernabeu is very focused from the club to the players.

In the training, the arrangement is to pass the offense and defense of five people to five people in the half court, and after the snatch, the fast attack in turn is only in the half court. This is for training to quickly pass the ball in a small area after the ball The ball is passed.

Change clothes with everyone, and make warm-up arrangements on the court.

Zhou Yang quickly integrated into the training and began to cooperate with his teammates.

In Calderon's empty stadium, the sun is shining brightly, only the sound of Arsenal players' exchanges and ball collisions.

Wenger stands on the sidelines, mid-May, in a white shirt, his eyes fixed on the pitch.

After the club communicated with Atletico Madrid, they temporarily used Atletico Madrid's Calderon for training.

Playing Real Madrid cannot be slack, and a qualified venue can allow players to find a better feeling.

Under certain conditions, Arsenal can use the stadium for training. Of course, Wenger knows that with Arsenal's conditions, it is not impossible to borrow other teams' stadiums in Madrid, but the home stadium of Atletico Madrid is undoubtedly the best. It may not have much impact, but he wants countless clubs in Europe to know his determination with Arsenal.

On the starting list, there is not much change this time, the only change is that he let Zhou Yang play forward.

At the same time, he changed to a 433 formation.

4231 needs to have a strong initiative, the freedom to attack up and down, and the midfielder needs to be progressive before and after deployment.

Combined with the Bernabeu's away disadvantage, Wenger is slightly inclined to play defensively and counterattack.

In the Real Madrid lineup, Benzema is recovering from injury. If it is correct, Real Madrid should play 433. The frontcourt trident is Ronaldo, Benzema and Bell.

Real Madrid's second round must be an all-out attack. At the end of the first round, he planned to play a defensive counterattack in the second round. After advancing in the midfield, he did not stay too long and used Zhou Yang as the core of the counterattack to threaten the penalty area of ​​the fast break.

on the field.

Zhou Yang then switched offense and defense in a small area within the half court.

When the starting list was made at the Kearney training base, he was ready, because this time Wenger gave the big list, he, Sanchez and Giroud were the three frontcourt starters.

As for the midfielder, there are Cazorla, Kirkland, and Rosicky, with four players in the back line.

As a striker, he doesn't have any psychological pressure. The only thing he thinks more about is other issues and external factors.

The frontcourt focuses more on offense and threats in the penalty area.

Not long after, he made a few cuts with his left foot on the right, and then hit the goal with his left foot. When the ball was depressed, he rushed into the net!

The first threatening attack hit the ball in.

There were several applause from teammates around.

Welbeck squatted on the sidelines and held out his thumb.

"Nice, nice."

Ospina smiled and appreciated, and Ospina was also not stingy with his appreciation for Zhou Yang's goal.

If Zhou Yang couldn't break through his gate, his heart should sink...

After all, Zhou Yang has undertaken a lot of firepower output and shell delivery in the team.

Zhou Yang smiled and waved to each other in response.

Both the state and the overall rhythm can be grasped. What the striker has to do more is to create threats, and the midfielder mainly advances, passes and dispatches.

After a while, he dribbled the ball to the front left at the top of the arc in the middle, and suddenly pulled out his right foot, followed by a light push, kicked the goal, and Ospina flew to reject the ball!
Not long after, he played a short pass with a few teammates. After successfully infiltrating, he followed up and hit the goal, pushing the ball into the lower right corner of the goal!
There was a steal soon, and the offense and defense were changed again...

After a series of work, Zhou Yang thinks it’s okay in general. For him now, it’s enough to do some training work. At most, he can practice his left foot for a while, so that the swing of the left foot and the release of the overall muscles can be better.

But the left foot has been used a lot, and it seems that it needs to rest quickly, and it feels that the left foot is more fragile than the right foot.

I can already play very well with my left foot, but it seems that I will feel uncomfortable after playing for a long time.Of course, he knew this well before, that is, a little more exercise on the left foot would have some impact.Whether it is competition or training, the left foot is weaker than the right foot. The muscle condition caused by this kind of voluntary movement is an internal problem.

Soon, under the arrangement of the coaching staff, others took turns to play offense or defense.

proceed in an orderly manner.

On the court, the sun and the pink vest complement each other.

The various trainings at Atletico Madrid's home court did not end until after four o'clock in the afternoon.

Wenger walked over applauding and gave a training summary on the spot.

Then make some explanations.

Everyone slowly gathered.

"Remember, we have an advantage, but not a big one. We need to have pressure, but we can't over-interpret the cognition of pressure. This will make everyone run more smoothly, understand?"

For players, there are many things that the coaching staff can do before the game, but far from one thing is more important.

That's the mentality that guides the players.

"We haven't lost recently, but we have to understand that we are about to face a strong and experienced team, we have only one ball advantage, and we are facing one of the best teams in Europe." Wenger stood in the crowd, looked around and looked at everyone.

There needs to be pressure and there needs to be motivation.

"Of course, if we achieve good results at the Bernabeu, then the championship is only one step away from us, and there is only one game left, yes, that is one game left." Wenger continued to stretch out a finger, with obvious forehead lines Said: "He is the Champions League, a golden glory."

Everyone trembled inexplicably. The European Champions Cup is the highest honor for any player.

Wenger glanced around, glanced at Zhou Yang and then passed over, and continued: "They have three excellent strikers in the frontcourt, Ronaldo, Benzema, and Bale. I also know that they are very good strikers. .”

"But, that doesn't change anything."

"Because we have too."

"At any time, I think my player is equally good, unless he himself tells me that he is not as good as others."
