"Ji Ming's sudden start disrupted Nottingham Forest's defensive plan! Chen Jian was easily pierced by him, and George Wood desperately wanted to stop him. Unexpectedly, Ji Ming suddenly made a pass!
Next is Messi's performance! Stop the ball and shoot in one go! Even if Peter Johnson is hailed as England's best goalkeeper in the next ten years, so what? Lazio leads Nottingham Forest 1:0!"
"Messi's goal is beautiful, but 70% of the credit for this goal must be attributed to the young Chinese Ji! His sudden straight breakthrough in the midfield completely disrupted Nottingham Forest's defense! A series of breakthroughs
It's exciting, and even more exciting is his backward pass when facing George Wood's frontal defense! It was he who opened the deadlock for Lazio and created such a good opportunity for Messi! The future of this young Chinese player
There must be no limit!”
"Messi! Messi! The everlasting Messi! Facing the most difficult door in Europe, he broke the deadlock with a beautiful shot!"
"Who would have thought that just this summer, the Argentinian would be very close to leaving Lazio? Isco's injury allowed him to stay again, and as a result, he ushered in another spring of his career! Although it is true to say that
It’s not fair to Isco, but I really think that Isco’s injury may have been determined by fate...”
"Messi's goal is very beautiful! He stopped the ball beautifully and shot it decisively and accurately. Even Peter Johnson was helpless in the face of such a shot! He touched the football, but did not change the flight of the football.
The direction shows how powerful Messi’s kick is!”
Messi was stunned for a moment at first because he saw the football being blocked by the goalkeeper and thought the football would be thrown out of the goal. Unexpectedly, the football eventually flew into the goal.
After confirming that he had indeed scored, he opened his arms, turned and ran towards Ji Ming, who assisted him.
Ji Ming was sitting on the ground, raising his arms and shouting.
Messi rushed through the crowd, then pushed him again and pressed him on top.
The other players also rushed forward, but they did not press on them, but pulled the two people up.
Then hug and celebrate.
If they all press forward, with the small bodies of Messi and Ji Ming, the season will probably be scrapped...

After Lazio scored, the people on the Lazio bench and coaching bench were also very excited.
They rushed out of their seats and rushed onto the court, and then they receded like an ebbing tide.
Even Chang Winning was very excited. He cheered and hugged the two assistant coaches around him, Rudy Gonzalez and Nesta, to celebrate the goal.
Although Lazio is said to be stronger than Nottingham Forest, the Lazio people have been suffering in this game.
Because Nottingham Forest had already drawn with teams like Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund in the previous two group matches without conceding a single goal.
So can Lazio break the deadlock when facing a team like Nottingham Forest?
This is something that many people are worried about.
If they fail to score, they will be tied or even defeated by Nottingham Forest at home. For the weakest team in this group, if they cannot take all three points, it will affect the next team's group stage.
The first plan to qualify.
Now Messi's goal makes everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
nailed it!
Although the game is not over yet, everyone does have such a feeling of relief in their hearts.
For Nottingham Forest, who are extremely good at defense, once they are led in the game, the next game will be difficult to play.
And Lazio has too many options.
The safest thing is to continue to control the ball and not rush to attack. If Nottingham Forest does not press out, then Lazio's small victory by one goal is acceptable.
If Nottingham Forest wants to equalize the score and press out to attack, Lazio will resolutely fight their counterattack. Let this team, which is famous for its defensive counterattacks, also experience Lazio's defensive counterattacks.

After Chang Sheng celebrated the goal with his colleagues, he turned and looked next door.
The English head coach of Nottingham Forest, Tony Twain, stood on the sidelines with a blank look on his face.
He knew very well why Tony Twain was so numb.
Because a team like Nottingham Forest doesn't have much choice.
From the beginning, they had the idea of drawing Lazio away from home. They did not even prepare other plans, such as what to do if they fell behind first.
This is not to say that Tony Twain is incompetent, but because doing so is meaningless.
Given the strength gap between Nottingham Forest and Lazio, if Nottingham Forest falls behind first, this game will be meaningless to them.
There is still a term "Lazio rhythm" in football circles.
Being led by Lazio will be difficult for many teams, and Nottingham Forest will not be surprised either.
So Tony Twain is actually at the end of his rope.
This kind of courage is commendable, but their luck and strength are still a bit lacking.
If Messi didn't score this goal, Lazio would be even more difficult.
But now that Messi has scored, this assumption is meaningless.
He smiled.
It is indeed a good opponent. There are not many teams that can make Lazio so embarrassed.
But just because he is a good opponent, Chang Sheng does not intend to show mercy to him in the future.
Because Chang Sheng smelled something very dangerous from this game.
Now restricted by the strength of Nottingham Forest, Tony Twain's talent has not been fully utilized.
If Nottingham Forest becomes stronger in the future, then this Tony Twain will definitely be his fierce rival. No matter which team he coaches at that time, he will definitely meet him.
Be merciless to your enemies...
※※※
Tony Twain is in pain now.
His carefully prepared plan failed, and the tight wall-like defense still allowed Lazio to seize an opportunity and score a goal.
When the ball flew into the goal, Nottingham Forest lost the game.
He didn't think his team had any chance of equalizing the score.
Because he knows how to win well, he is not the kind of coach who gets carried away and presses hard after taking the lead, so that he can still take advantage of it.
He will definitely be a person whose highest goal is to win. As long as he can win, he doesn't care whether he wins beautifully or not.
Therefore, in the next game, Lazio will definitely shrink its defense to ensure their victory.
And it is impossible for Nottingham Forest to press forward and attack, as that will only concede more goals.
Since failure is inevitable, we must make plans based on this situation. If we can lose a small amount by one goal, we must not lose more goals.
The group stage depends on the goal difference. If you are defeated by Lazio by a big score in this game, it will be very unfavorable for the future qualifying situation. If you need to compare the goal difference with Real Madrid or Dortmund, won't you suffer a loss?
?
And if Lazio, the team known as the strongest defensive team in Europe, is defeated, it will be too demoralizing...
Tony Twain made his decision after much thought.
After conceding the ball, the team's tactics and strategy remained unchanged and they continued to defend.
Until the end of the game, 0:1 is the best score so far!
※※※
After the game restarted, it was exactly as Tony Twain expected.
Lazio, who was leading, did not continue to attack aggressively and try to score another goal.
But there is no difference from the previous rhythm.
He firmly controls the football under his feet, then passes it back and forth, constantly dropping the ball in the midfield.
This time it was even more extreme than before. They still had to try to attack before scoring.
Now they don't even try to attack, they already have a goal anyway.
Of course, this kind of game was not fun to watch, but Lazio played with peace of mind. The Lazio fans at home did not boo them coolly and noblely to criticize their team for not being active.
Cheers and cheers for Lazio as they remain in place.
Because they have long been accustomed to it, this is the way Lazio plays.
Is there anything wrong with pursuing victory without violating the rules?
Tony Twain also gave the latest instructions to the team, telling them to continue to defend in the next game and not give Lazio the slightest chance to expand the score.
In this way, the rest of the game ended in such a calm state.
On the contrary, the commentator kept complaining that the two teams did not want to make progress. Lazio was satisfied with one goal, while Nottingham Forest showed no fighting spirit at all, as if they were happy to lose only one goal.
Everyone also took the opportunity to hack defensive football again.
"If future football matches are like this, I think football will die sooner or later!"
"Such a game appearing in the Champions League, the highest level football competition in the world, is really an insult to the Champions League!"
"If Nottingham Forest plans to qualify by relying on this kind of football team, then I think they don't deserve everyone's praise!"

After the game, Chang Sheng did not go to shake hands with Tony Twain. Instead, he went to his players on the court and celebrated with them.
Tony Twain naturally didn't want to wait in front of the visiting team's coaching bench to shake hands with Chang Sheng.
The moment the final whistle blew, he turned around and walked towards the tunnel first.
Fortunately, Chang Sheng didn't take the initiative to shake hands with him, otherwise it would have been embarrassing.
Of course, Chang Sheng must know who Tony Twain is, so he didn't even think of going to shake hands with him.
He will not humiliate himself or give the other party a chance to humiliate him.
This game is the most difficult and most unpleasant game for Lazio to win in the Champions League this season.
But that doesn't matter, as long as you win.
With three points secured, Lazio, with nine points, is far ahead.
When Chang Sheng celebrated and hugged the players, his face was filled with smiles.
He is really a utilitarian... (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
