Chapter 64 Sprinkle salt on Real Madrid's wounds (guarantee
Real Madrid was eliminated in the group stage, and at the same time Nottingham Lin unexpectedly advanced to the knockout rounds in the group of death. These two pieces of news became sensational news throughout European football the next day.
Everyone said that Group B was indeed the group of death, and it directly killed two powerful teams...
In fact, UEFA originally wanted to trick Lazio, but they didn't expect to be tricked by Lazio...
It is said that after Real Madrid suffered a humiliating defeat in the away game, the whole team returned to Madrid. As soon as they got off the plane, they were scolded by the Real Madrid fans who came to protest. Many Real Madrid fans even asked for these
Everyone is going to die.
This extreme fan behavior naturally caused dissatisfaction among some Real Madrid players, who began to consider leaving Real Madrid because of this incident.
It also paved the way for the subsequent disintegration of Real Madrid.
But of course, this is all a story for another day.
In short, this score has brought a lot of trouble to Real Madrid. Real Madrid players, coaches and management are all scolded by fans and media.
Not qualifying for the group stage created the worst Champions League record in Real Madrid's history.
Being beaten 0:7 by Lazio in the away game also created the biggest defeat in the history of Real Madrid in the Champions League.
The former king of the Champions League is now unable to even make it out of the group stage, which has to be lamented.
In the past two decades, Real Madrid has never given up trying to win their tenth Champions League, but things have always backfired and they have never succeeded.
Even if they can reach the finals, they can't win the game.
It seems that they are completely insulated from the tenth Champions League championship.
During this period, the winner has won nine Champions League titles, tying him with Real Madrid.
Now think about his original "wild talk". From that time on, Chang Sheng has been working hard in this direction. Although no one believed his words at that time.
Now everyone knows that he is not joking - he is really going to surpass Real Madrid's number of Champions League games!
This season, Lazio has already reached the knockout round, while Real Madrid was eliminated in the group stage. Therefore, Real Madrid definitely has no chance to win the championship this season. They can only pray that Lazio cannot win the championship, so that they can relax.
tone.

Nottingham Forest's qualifying is another news that shocked Europe.
When they were first assigned to the group of death, no one was optimistic about this English team. Because they have only entered the Champions League again after 40 years, it would be good if they could not do well in the group stage.
If it weren't for the two-round victory over Lyon, I'm afraid many people wouldn't think they were anything special.
It's a pity that this group is...if they don't go to the death group and go to other groups, they have some hope of advancing to the top 16.
Who knew that in order to contain Lazio, they were also included in the death group.
This formed the strongest death group in history.
In this group, what everyone is paying attention to must be the battle between the other three teams. The two qualifying spots must also be born among these three teams. As for Nottingham Forest, they are defeated by these three teams.
The object of the team to grab points.
Who would have thought that Nottingham Forest would disappoint people from the very beginning of the first round of the group stage.
Facing a team stronger than them, Nottingham Forest's defense was impressive.
With four draws and one win, they actually broke out of this group!
This is really unexpected!
"It seems that the traditional pattern of European football for more than 20 years is about to be broken..." Some English media commented after Real Madrid failed to qualify for the group and Nottingham Forest qualified for the group.

In Nottingham, Forest's qualifying from the group stage turned the city into a sea of joy. Head coach Tony.
Twain's reputation surged, and his players also attracted the attention of the entire Europe.
In Madrid, the mournful Real Madrid fans began to reflect, if they had left a winning streak, would the story be completely different now?
These excitements and disappointments have nothing to do with the everlasting victory of the city of Rome.
After playing the last round of the Champions League group stage, Lazio's focus was on the domestic league.
They are ranked second in the league and have a chance to win the championship. Naturally, they will not give up if they win often.
This is his consistent strategy. After the group stage, he will go all out to attack the domestic league.
Just to take advantage of this single-line battle time to have a good shot at the league championship.
This season is the same.
Lazio has been without a trophy for two consecutive seasons.
This situation must not continue, especially since this is the last season of the winning coach Lazio, and it must end with a championship.
At present, Chang Sheng doesn't know which championships he can win by the end of the season, so he doesn't want to give up any championship.
Before the Christmas break, Lazio has three games to play, two league matches and one Italian Cup match.
In the home game against Livorno, Chang Sheng did not use rotation. Instead, they continued to handicap! Real Madrid's starting lineup played and finally won Livorno at home with a clean score of 0.
Keep up the pressure on Juventus.
At the post-match press conference, some reporters wondered why Chang Sheng did not adopt rotation.
Chang Sheng took the opportunity to insert a knife into Real Madrid's wound.
"The players played very easily against Real Madrid and were in good condition. I didn't think there was any reason to replace them for rotation. So I let them continue to start. And the game against Real Madrid didn't cost too much.
There is a lot of physical strength, so the physical fitness of the players is not a problem. I believe everyone saw this in today's game. Three days later, our players are still full of physical fitness."
A reporter asked: "Do you mean that Real Madrid is too weak and it will be effortless to defeat them?"
Chang Sheng smiled and then nodded: "Yes, that's what I mean!"
After the post-match press conference spread, the Madrid media was naturally furious, making Real Madrid fans hate Chang Sheng to the bone, and making the Real Madrid club even more embarrassed...
But what else can they do besides curse? They can't even threaten Chang Sheng.

Just two days after the match against Livorno, Lazio faced Siena at home in the Italian Cup.
This time, Chang Sheng adopted a rotation.
At the pre-match press conference, Chang Sheng continued to whip Real Madrid's corpse: "Because we think Siena is more difficult to deal with than Real Madrid, I decided to use a rotation lineup to ensure that the players have sufficient physical fitness..."
Real Madrid can only roll their eyes when encountering such a petty opponent.
The Italian Cup match against Siena was actually not difficult.
This is Lazio's home court, and Lazio is much stronger than Siena, so it's natural to beat them.
It's not like Chang Sheng said, it's more difficult to beat Siena than Real Madrid...
He just wants to disgust Real Madrid.
In the end, Lazio defeated Siena by 31 at home and successfully advanced to the Italian Cup quarter-finals.
In the next seventeenth round of the league, Lazio was forced to a 22-level draw by Verona in the away game.
Because Juventus won away from Atalanta, Lazio was temporarily pulled away again.
Faced with such a result, Chang Sheng seemed helpless.
Lazio today is no longer the Lazio it was in its heyday.
Injuries and physical fitness affect the team's performance all the time.
The players' physical fitness was greatly affected by the continuous double matches in a week, and they did not perform well in the game against Verona.
The team that was always two points behind Juventus is now four points ahead of Juventus.
The third-placed Naples are also four points away from them and continue to chase them.
After the game against Verona, Serie A has officially entered the winter break.
After the Lazio team had a Christmas dinner, they disbanded.
The player department can get two weeks of vacation and then return to the team on January 1, 2022 to prepare for the second half of the season.
Chang Sheng will also take his parents back to China for vacation.
My parents are getting older and older. Although they have been living with them in Rome, they miss home more and more and miss their relatives back home.
This is a contradiction.
They are living with their sons, and their lives are guaranteed.
But their spiritual life has always been lacking.
In Rome, no matter how long I live, I still have no friends, no neighbors to chat with.
Their language is also a problem and it is impossible to go out alone.
Therefore, when living in Rome, they basically stayed at home, and even if they went out, they had to be accompanied by someone.
If you can't find anyone to talk to, you will feel very uncomfortable, and every day will feel like a year.
They have mentioned many times that they want to return to China, but Chang Sheng doesn't trust them.
When I return to my country, I have neighbors to live with, and we can talk to each other. But as I get older, my health is getting worse and worse. If someone has a bad relationship and dies at home, I am afraid no one will know...
This is also what Chang Sheng is most worried about.
My parents only have one child, and if I am not around, there will be no one to take care of them.
So Chang Sheng insisted on living with his parents.
At the same time, in order to satisfy the spiritual needs of his parents, he promised to return to China to stay for a while every holiday.
That period of time was actually the happiest time for my parents.
Every time Chang Sheng sees his parents' smiling faces, he feels guilty but also helpless.
Sometimes, I feel that no matter how much money I make, I still can't give my parents the life they want.
When I was young, I thought that as long as I had money, all problems would be solved, so I worked hard to make money.
