In two home and away games with Milan, Li Chuanqi scored six goals.
A super new star rises up so suddenly, leaving no time for people to adapt.
Reporters excitedly surrounded Li Chuanqi after the game.
Li Chuanqi patiently answered the reporters' questions. Staff member Russell blocked the reporters: "Li is now going to be interviewed by the official UEFA Champions League media. You can wait in the mixed interview area!"
He didn't look at the reporters' regretful eyes and pulled Li Chuanqi away.
The reporters shrugged and had to wait in the mixed interview area.
The official Champions League reporter was the same one as last time, and Li Chuanqi remembered his name this time - Alex.
This name means a strong man of Greek origin, smart, kind and lovable.
"A week later, you scored another hat trick against Milan, which is shocking. How do you feel now? Is this your first time coming to San Siro? What impression does this stadium leave on you?"
Li Chuanqi replied happily: "This is a great stadium, and many famous seniors have left wonderful games here.
Milan fans are also the best fans in the world. They are very friendly and they applaud me when I perform well, which surprises me.
It also shows that they are real fans.
I'm in a good mood to score three goals again in the game."
Alex asked another very professional question: "We found that you have changed a lot in this game. You no longer stand on the wing, but often move forward close to the center.
This change fully demonstrates your speed advantage and makes it easier for you to score goals.
Such a big change has happened in just one week, can you tell us what happened in the meantime?"
Li Chuanqi nodded: "This is thanks to coach Mr. Pellegrini. He thought that the way I played before was very tiring, reminded me to make changes, and gave me specific methods.
I tried it during training and found the effect to be good. I plan to continue trying it tonight.
Judging from the results, the effect is pretty good.”
…
At the post-match press conference, Pellegrini was the first to appear. When entering the question period, a reporter from L'Equipe asked: "In an interview after the game, Li Chuanqi said that his changes came from your reminder.
We have noticed that some media said that the relationship between you and Li is not very good. Some time ago, he asked you to get more playing time.
The media believes that it can be seen from this incident that the relationship between you and him is not very good.
So in this case, why would he still follow your advice?"
Pellegrini listened patiently to his words and replied: "Our relationship has always been very good, and he is one of the most important players we signed this summer.
I know that the club and the fans have high expectations for him, but he has played in the lowest level league in Spain and has no experience in La Liga.
And he's so young.
Of course it is impossible to start him in this situation. I want him to slowly adapt to the rhythm and atmosphere of La Liga before letting him start.
According to my expectation, if he wants to get the starting position, he will have to play at least half a season.
But his growth rate is too fast, so I can only put him into the starting lineup in advance.
It's normal for young people to have their own ideas, and I won't have any objections to him just because he asks me for more playing time.
it's out of the question!
As for the media, they are just making random guesses. My communication with Li has always been very good.
I am very optimistic about his present and future!”
The reporters in the audience nodded.
"Who doesn't like talented players as a coach?
Li is a talented player, with extraordinary talent and amazing explosive power.
As a forward, what surprises me most about him is his ability to seize opportunities!
His calmness before shooting made me feel that he didn't look like he was only 18 years old or playing in his first top league!
But after all, he has limited competition experience and has not fully developed his potential.
Of course I will remind him.
He accepted my suggestion, which makes me happy.
He is a treasure that needs me to keep digging in the coming time.
You will see a more different version of him in the future, and you will also see that he poses a greater threat!"
…
Malaga beat Milan twice, winning all four games, locking first place in the group two rounds in advance and successfully entering the knockout rounds.
If you pass the qualifying round and participate in the Champions League for the first time, you will qualify first in the group.
The British Guardian said Malaga is the biggest dark horse in this year's Champions League.
"In the long history of the Champions League, it is extremely rare for a team that enters the main draw through the qualifying rounds to enter the top 16 as the first in the group.
And they secured first place in the group two rounds in advance!
Malaga is the biggest dark horse in the Champions League this season. We are looking forward to their knockout rounds and hope they can give us bigger surprises in the knockout rounds!"
Li Chuanqi has become the subject of intense coverage by European media. Gazzetta dello Sport commented: "He scored eight goals in three Champions League games and six goals in two games against Milan.
This rookie in La Liga and the Champions League has shown his teeth and claws to show the world his talent.
When the whole world was discussing who is stronger in today's world football, Messi or Ronaldo, Li quietly appeared.
Eighteen years old, with super explosive power, a keen sense of smell in front of the goal, a strong sense of forward penetration, and superb shooting skills.
This is the impression Li left on us.
Perhaps in the future, when people discuss who is the best forward in world football today, they will add another name - Li!
Maybe this day will come soon!"
The official website of the Champions League once again gave Li Chuanqi a column, focusing on his performance at San Siro, believing that he is the biggest discovery of the Champions League this season.
“In the 2005 Champions League final, Liverpool was three goals behind in the first half and scored three goals in the second half, magically equalizing the score and sending the game into a penalty shootout.
In the end, the Premier League giants defeated Milan and won the fifth Delaunay Cup in team history.
It was one of the most classic Champions League finals in history.
To Liverpool supporters that's 'Istanbulchi'.
A year later, Milan once again reached the Champions League final, and their opponent was Liverpool.
This time Milan did not let the tragedy happen again. With Inzaghi's two goals, they defeated Liverpool and won the seventh Delaunay Cup in team history.
That year Kaka won the title of World Footballer. He scored eight goals in the Champions League that season.
And Li tied Kaka's scoring record in the Champions League in three games!
Some media claim that Malaga is the biggest dark horse in the Champions League this season, and this dark horse now has a leader.
Although he is only eighteen years old, he is the one competing with Messi for the top scorer in La Liga.
We expect even greater things from this 18-year-old star!"
