"As long as this kid doesn't get hurt, his future is limitless."
In the stands, when Ferguson saw Haaland waving to the coach and begging him to stay on the court, he couldn't help laughing and couldn't hide the look of appreciation on his face.
No head coach would dislike such a player who is full of desire to win, full of fighting spirit, and also has superior strength.
Of course, Haaland was more of a plea than a protest.
If it is the latter, it will probably make the head coach unable to step down.
After seeing Haaland's request, Vardy turned his head, said a few words to Pochettino, and then walked back to the bench.
Judging from the face of the Leeds United captain, he is probably more happy than disappointed.
"You have created a good team atmosphere and the players' mentality has been maintained very well." Wenger also praised.
If it had been another team, there would probably have been a problem, at least there would have been some discord.
For example, the news will come out tomorrow that Vardy is dissatisfied with Haaland and so on.
Sometimes, when news is passed around, it becomes real.
The relationship between players in the locker room is the same as the relationship between two friends or colleagues in real life.
When rumors appear, some things are obviously fine, but they still feel awkward, and they gradually become alienated, and even cracks appear, and some even directly lead to conflicts.
Leeds United's atmosphere has always been very good, and it seems like now, Vardy is obviously trying to make Haaland a success.
In this case, Leeds United's public relations and marketing departments will follow the trend, take the lead, create a wave of momentum, and confirm the relationship between Vardy and Haaland, then everyone will have a preconceived idea.
impression.
If you don’t take the position of public opinion, you will have to let others arrange it.
"This is a world of paranoia. Harland seems to be quite gregarious, but deep down he is still very proud and very competitive." Gao Shen said to the point.
"This is normal. If you are not competitive or proud, you should have a headache." Ferguson laughed.
Wenger nodded, "You look like Cristiano Ronaldo. How arrogant? How paranoid? How self-disciplined, who can stand it?"
"And Messi, you see he is weak and introverted, do you think he is easy to bully?"
Wenger's words made both Gao Shen and Ferguson couldn't help laughing.
Cristiano Ronaldo is flamboyant and Messi is reserved, but they are both the same at heart.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to establish the peerless double pride.
"Hey, Professor, I've always been curious about something."
"What?"
"You were the first to take a fancy to Messi back then. Why didn't you take him away?"
"There are many reasons, but the main reason is that the players themselves don't want to leave." Wenger said helplessly.
This should be the biggest regret in his coaching career.
If he could take away Messi and Cesc Fabregas at the same time, his Arsenal would be completely different.
Many times, things in the world are so strange.
If he had been more insistent and more sincere, Messi might not have persisted anymore.
You know, at that time, it was difficult for Barcelona's youth training players to get opportunities, so Fabregas went to England, and even Iniesta almost left Barcelona and joined Real Madrid.
People are always like this, they can only see the present, who can know the future?
"Actually, a long time ago, even before Messi joined Barcelona, many people have recommended him to us." Ferguson also said helpfully.
"You know, European football, especially the wealthy teams, receive countless player information every year. After screening by scouts and coaches, those who can appear in front of us are definitely talented stars.
Messi is one of them, he has participated in international competitions since he was nine years old."
"But you know, everyone tells you that you can tell at a glance that he can become Messi in the future. That's all nonsense. There were many people watching Messi at that time, but everyone basically regarded him as a very important player.
A young man with great potential and talent, and his weaknesses are very obvious."
"You are short and frail, and you still need to take growth hormone. Do you know what the risks are for teenagers to take growth hormone?"
Gao Shen had read Messi's autobiography in his previous life, and he had a lot of interactions with Messi in this life, so he knew him well.
"At that time, the Argentine team, including Messi's team, refused to pay for his medical expenses because of this. He even went to River Plate for a trial."
Ferguson nodded, "So, we were relatively cautious at that time. After all, the youth training budget was limited. I remember that Barcelona's youth training budget was 13 million euros, and we were about the same."
"But even so, we still want to sign Messi." Wenger took over.
"that time?"
"Yes, not only us, AC Milan has locked Messi, Real Madrid's Valdano also wanted to sign him, and Atletico Madrid, they were very interested in Messi at the time, and Messi was also focusing on Spanish clubs.
"
"I heard Valdano say that he scoffed at the so-called napkin myth. He said that even now, he feels that Messi's family made a stupid decision because Real Madrid is willing to pay all their medical expenses.
, but they chose to go to Barcelona, but Barcelona did not fulfill their promise and only fulfilled one-third." Gao Shen said with a bitter smile.
"Messi's mother is a descendant of Catalan immigrants and has relatives there," Wenger explained.
Only then did Gao Shen suddenly realize.
With this said, things will become clear.
"So, we have always felt that Barcelona's treatment of Messi is not kind enough. In the past few years, Barcelona has been closed in its own circle, from Maradona to Rivaldo, from Riquelme to Ronaldo.
Ordinho, now it's Messi's turn." Wenger said sadly.
Barcelona has always had this "tradition".
Why was Cruyff able to gain a foothold in Barcelona and become the godfather of Barcelona?
Because he married a Catalan woman as his wife.
But Messi has always been out of place in Barcelona. He insisted on speaking Spanish with Argentinian slang. He was unwilling to naturalize in Spain and chose Argentina.
But what is the saddest thing?
He is not popular in Argentina either!
This is a very embarrassing result.
The Argentinian who came to Barcelona since he was a child was bullied by his teammates in Barcelona and was not accepted by the club culture and city culture. But in Argentina, he was also regarded as an outsider. They even believed that Messi was not Argentinian.
It's a Spaniard. This has been revealed several times in the Argentine national team.
In this case, he is really not a human being.
…
Inside the stadium, the game continues.
After the restart, Leeds United still maintained a high-intensity pressure on Barcelona.
Harland, in particular, performed particularly hard.
The Norwegian youngster's influence in the Leeds United dressing room is growing.
Not only is he a direct descendant of the club's youth training, he is also the team's current top ace. In addition, he is very popular in his daily dealings with others, so he is loved by his teammates in the locker room.
At this moment, everyone is willing to provide him with help and support.
But sometimes, the more you want to score a goal, the less it will come.
In the 72nd minute, Leeds United encountered Barcelona's interception near the center line.
After Ronald Koeman's substitution, he strengthened the defense in the midfield.
After Haaland retreated to receive the ball, he turned around and passed the ball behind him with his left foot.
Rashford sprinted quickly, stopped the ball on the left side of the penalty area and entered the penalty area. When facing Pique, he made a skillful continuous fake move, suddenly spiked the ball and cut inside, and made a curve ball with his right foot.
Breaking through Barcelona's goal again, 7-0!
After Rashford scored, Haaland got up near the midline. He was tripped by Lenglet, but the referee did not blow the whistle because of the principle of advantageous offense.
After that, Leeds United continued to pursue the victory.
In the 79th minute, Alphonso Davis's forced breakthrough from the left created a free kick opportunity.
Leeds United quickly took a free kick, and Militao scored with a header, 8-0!!
Leeds United once again played a crazy big score at Camp Nou.
For two consecutive seasons, Barcelona was brutally beaten by their opponents when facing the White Rose.
And, all of them are on their home court.
At this moment, everyone has completely lost confidence in Barcelona, and Barcelona's players have completely lost their fighting spirit and confidence, and even resistance has become feeble.
Haaland worked hard to find opportunities, and he really wanted to score one more goal.
He ran very aggressively and even retreated.
In the 84th minute, Barcelona's right wing Felipe Anderson dribbled the ball to the baseline and passed the ball, but Messi was flanked by two Leeds United players and failed to grab the ball at all.
Declan Rice blocked Felipe Anderson's cross from the penalty area near the penalty spot and passed it to the feet of his teammate Valverde in front.
After Valverde stopped the ball and avoided Frenkie de Jong, who was rushing forward, he passed the ball to Haaland who was retreating in front. He quickly moved forward along the middle, and Haaland stopped the ball to
He picked up Enzo Fernandez and pushed forward with all his strength.
Obviously, both men realized the opportunity for a quick counterattack.
Enzo Fernandez passed the ball to Valverde who was sprinting, and Haaland sprinted in the left rib area at a very fast speed, faster and faster.
Leeds United quickly created a four-on-three situation in the frontcourt.
After Valverde strode the ball past the center line, he continued to immerse himself in the ball and led it forward along the center. After attracting Barcelona's defensive attention, he chose to lean towards the left side where Rashford was.
This immediately caused Barcelona's defensive players to be surrounded.
But just when Valverde was about to rush into the top area of the key, the outside instep of his right foot suddenly pushed the ball to the right while he was touching the ball.
The Barcelona defenders were completely deceived by this false shot pass, and neither Haaland nor Sancho on the right was guarded.
At the critical moment, Haaland caught up first and stopped the ball in the penalty area. He then caught up and fired a volley with his right foot.
The football rushed into Barcelona's goal at great speed.
There is absolutely nothing the goalkeeper can do about it.
Nine to zero!
Haaland set a new historical record!
He became the first player in the history of Champions League football to score six goals in a single game in the knockout rounds!
What's even more frightening is that he is only 20 years old!
After Haaland scored, he went completely crazy and rushed to the sidelines to celebrate, completely ignoring that he was at the Camp Nou and not caring about the feelings of the Barcelona fans.
