Due to the conflict with Barcelona last season, Kai, Pepe and Maxa will be suspended.
Among them, Maxa's suspension was the longest.
Therefore, after the conference, he flew directly to China, joined the national football team's emergency mobilization team for the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup, and delivered a blood-curdling speech as the team leader.
Suspended?
Ben Sasana simply doesn’t care about you, UEFA!
I'm going to bring trouble to FIFA.
Goodbye!
…
September 11th, the first round of the Champions League group stage.
The war begins.
PSV faced Galatasaray and lost unexpectedly.
Spring is coming to Turks.
The other opponents in this group, Sporting Lisbon and Lazio, were not upset.
Five-time champion Sporting Lisbon, which was touted by the media as Europe's best team before the game, lost four goals and was completely defeated.
The young player Yaya Toure who played was beaten by Diego Mendiego in the first half and was replaced directly in the midfield.
It's not that Triguera doesn't give him a chance, it's mainly that if he doesn't replace him, Yaya Toure's football belief will probably be destroyed.
This battle made Diego Mendieu, who was in a bad situation at Lazio, much better.
And Evra was defeated by the famous Czech player Boboski in the same way, and was also replaced by Wu Xudong in the midfield.
On the offensive end, Kaká, who replaced Deng Kai as the core of the midfield, was undoubtedly disappointing.
Not only him, but also the team's front three - Cristiano Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Drogba, and Ibrahimovic - all went offline in front of Nesta Stam's strongest center back combination in Europe.
"They were so guarded that they didn't even have a chance to kick" became a true portrayal of their game.
After the game, the media said this Lazio team was terrifyingly strong!
Ronaldinho also said in an interview that he could not find any way to get past the pair of central defenders.
Only Cristiano Ronaldo spoke harshly in front of the media and said, "I will definitely score in the next round."
"Italy La Repubblica" affirmed Ronaldo's statement: "Of course he can score goals, because at that time Lazio had already qualified first in the group. As a bronze boot in Europe, Ronaldo is certainly possible to be in Lazio's full substitute lineup
Score a goal in front of us.”
"Corriere dello Sport": "The strength of the five-time champion is lower than expected. Serie A is the world this year!"
"Gazzetta dello Sport": "Many people think that Sporting Lisbon lost because of the lack of Deng Kai, but it is difficult for us to believe that the absence of one person will have such a huge impact. We think this is a reflection of the gap between Portuguese football and Italian football.
This is normal."
"Torino Sport": "The hustle and bustle of the past summer has finally stopped. No one is talking about five crowns or even six crowns in my ears! Sporting Lisbon should probably play in the UEFA Cup!"
The Italian media rallied to attack.
Because this summer, Portuguese media has stolen too much traffic.
It makes people think that the Portuguese Super League is the best league in the world.
The more people go downhill, the more sensitive they become. All football practitioners in Italy are at this stage now.
Although there are various signs that La Liga has overtaken Serie A and the Premier League is also shrinking the distance from Serie A, Serie A has never recognized this.
"Daily Sports" also said after Sporting Lisbon lost: "Sporting Lisbon won the Champions League qualification by luck last season, but they lost it this season with their strength."
"This world is always like this. What doesn't belong to you will eventually leave."
…
September 16th, the fifth round of the Portuguese Super League.
Sporting Lisbon, which lost in the Champions League, changed its formation and tried 3232 for the first time.
Deng Kai made two passes and two shots, with full firepower, leading the team to defeat newly promoted Portuguese Super League team Gil Vicente 5-3.
But the match was not well received by the media.
Because two years ago, when Deng Kai and Ronaldo led the Portuguese Liga team Moreirense and Gil Vicente, they could score like this.
Two years have passed. Deng Kai and Ronaldo have become much stronger, and their teammates have become much more luxurious. As a result, they still conceded three goals.
The well-known Portuguese media Bora said: "It is undeniable that Sporting Lisbon has a luxurious striker lineup in Portugal, and they can use this to cover up some problems."
"But in Europe's top-level competitions, when these strikers are no longer sharp, their problems are exposed one after another."
"At the defensive midfielder position, the older ones have no running ability, and the younger ones lack positional sense or are seriously biased. Fonte has obviously become the biggest loophole in the central defender position, and whether it is Evra or Maicon as a guest midfielder,
Defenders are not much better than Font."
"There is a big gap between Schmeichel's state and before the summer, but Sporting Lisbon's substitute goalkeeper Reina is too young, which makes people have confidence in him."
"In the next round of the Champions League group stage, there is a high probability that they will still be unable to win."
September 19th, the second round of the Champions League group stage.
The "prophecy" of the Bora newspaper came true.
Sporting Lisbon's right winger Ronaldinho was marked during this game and was completely frozen.
Kaka did better than the previous game, but it was still far from the help Deng Kai brought to the team.
Especially when the goal was empty, all Kaka's efforts were wasted.
His post-match rating ranks among the bottom three in the team along with Ronaldinho.
The best performer in Sporting Lisbon is Cristiano Ronaldo.
In the first half, he received Drogba's pass and cut inside to score.
In the second half, Cristiano Ronaldo received a through ball from Guardiola and beat Mark Van Bommel alive to score twice.
But on Eindhoven's side, Kežman, Ruud van Nistelrooy's successor, performed as well as Ronaldo. Both pass and shot and Ronaldo received the highest rating in the game.
Two to two, both sides shook hands and made peace.
This is a disaster for them all.
Because both PSV and Sporting Lisbon have lost two rounds.
Both are only worth one point.
Sporting Lisbon lost more games and was at the bottom of the group.
But the most surprising one is Galatasaray.
The Turks actually defeated PSV Eindhoven in the first round and then defeated the invincible Lazio in the second round.
Ranked first in the group with six points.
The name of the Turkish Super League’s top club is resounding throughout Europe.
The former Triple Crown winner of Sporting Lisbon has become the protagonist of major media reports.
…
September 23, the sixth round of the Portuguese Super League.
After changing their formation, Sporting Lisbon finally played a highlight game.
A bloodbath of Farens six to one.
Ronaldo wearing a hat.
Deng Kai made two passes and two shots in a row.
Ronaldinho scored twice with assists.
This has rekindled their fans' expectations for the Champions League.
September 26th, the third round of the Champions League group stage.
Sporting Lisbon vs Galatasaray.
Ronaldinho performed brilliantly in this game, creating several threats and even scoring a penalty kick.
However, Cristiano Ronaldo, who was proud of the league, was disappointed in the Champions League and missed a penalty kick.
In the second half, Kaka also gradually adapted to the core position of the offense, sent a wonderful pass, and assisted Ibrahimovic to score.
But soon, while participating in defense, he accidentally scored an own goal, helping Galatasaray equalize the score.
One to one, Sporting Lisbon scored two points in three rounds.
Basically the Champions League is out.
The only thing they can strive for is perhaps third place in the group, then entering the UEFA Cup and returning to a familiar arena.
Galatasaray has seven points from three rounds and continues to be at the top of the list. The qualifying situation can be determined as early as the next round.
On the other side, the match between PSV and Lazio was equally exciting.
PSV won an upset, with four points from three rounds, climbing to second place in the group.
Lazio lost again.
Three points in three rounds, ranking third.
This Serie A Eagle suddenly seems to have a problem. Diego, the former best midfielder in Europe, performed poorly both in the league and the Champions League. He was lost in the mini-World Cup.
Except for his bright spots when playing for Sporting Lisbon, he even performed like a substitute player.
But the news after the game has nothing to do with the victory or defeat of these teams.
Even the media across Europe did not report the scores, but tacitly issued the same news:
Amid the expectations of fans around the world, the hot man is back!
He is light, he is electricity, he is the only myth!
He is the man behind Sporting Lisbon.
He is a shining hero with five crowns.
He is the strongest support around Trigla.
He is the Bole and master of Deng Kai, Cristiano Ronaldo and Fonte!
Deng Kai:???
Why do you feel like this is talking about someone who deceives the world and steals his reputation?
