After losing to Sampdoria, they immediately beat Reggina by a huge margin, proving that this loss was just a coincidence and Lazio was just a little unlucky.
This failure will have no consequences.
This is also true.
The next fourth match of the Champions League group stage.
Lazio defeated Olympiacos 3:1 at home.
In the tenth round of the league, Lazio defeated Empoli 3:0 away from home.
In the eleventh round of the league, Lazio broke out again and beat Udinese 5-0 at home!
In the twelfth round, Lazio once again scored a big score, beating Messina 4:1 away from home.
Lazio's state during this period can be described as horrific.
Won Reggina 4:1, defeated Olympiacos 3:1, defeated Empoli 3:0, beat Udinese 5:0, and then defeated Messina 4:1. Five games.
Nineteen goals were scored.
After twelve league rounds, Lazio has scored 31 goals in the league, making it the team with the most goals in Serie A.
In the Champions League group stage, they also scored 13 goals and only conceded one goal. They are among the top in Europe in terms of attack power and defense.
Data is boring, but data doesn't lie.
Data like this makes it hard to imagine that this is a team that was put back together just this summer.
"...What magic did Chang cast on Lazio? Make this team completely different from what we remember?"
"Our reporters have followed Lazio's performance and they don't look like a team that has only played together for a few months..."
"...The urine test results proved that Lazio's players did not take any banned substances, and their results are real and credible. So the question becomes, is it really normal for such results to happen to Lazio? I don't mean to belittle them,
I just feel weird..."
"The attacking power of Lazio is the highest in Europe. This kind of Lazio surprised the whole Europe. Many reporters flocked to Lazio's Formello training base, wanting to explore the secret of Lazio's success... Let me tell you, what's so good about this?
Visiting? The reason why they can achieve such results is very simple. There is only one reason, that is, their head coach is Chang! Think about Getafe, think about Valencia, as long as it is a team coached by Chang, no matter
Are they all so surprising?"
Media across the continent have followed Lazio's rise.
Although Roma ranks fourth and their results are not bad, under the brilliant light of Lazio, Spalletti's Roma is not worth mentioning.
※※※
November 22 is the penultimate round of the Champions League group stage, and Lazio has to play Shakhtar Donetsk away from home.
It has started to snow heavily in Ukraine at the end of November.
In order to avoid injuries to key players, Changsheng did not let those key players go to the ice and snow in Donetsk.
Anyway, his team qualified early after the last Champions League group stage match.
The only suspense now is to be first in the group, but Chang Sheng does not think that Valencia, which is five points behind itself, can come back and come back.
So both he and the team can face this road trip to Eastern Europe with a relaxed mentality.
Even if they lose the game, it doesn't matter.
In the end, they drew 1:1 with Shakhtar Donetsk away from home.
Valencia defeated Olympiacos 2:0 at home.
With the final round of the group stage remaining, Lazio leads Valencia by three points.
If Valencia can defeat Lazio in the final round, the outcome of the two sides will be even, depending on the goal difference between the two sides.
However, it is difficult for Valencia to take advantage in this regard.
On the road, the ever-winner Lazio scored four goals against Valencia.
So back at home, can Lazio still lose to Valencia by five goals?
It's almost impossible.
So actually the first and second place in this group have been decided, namely Lazio and Valencia.
As for the final round of the group stage, it has lost its significance in terms of results.
No matter what the commission looks like, it will not affect the qualification of these two teams.
But this game will still be fierce and will still attract much attention.
Because this is a match between Lazio and Valencia, because of the grudges between Chang Sheng and Valencia.
In European football, there are always games like this to attract people's attention.
Chang Sheng once again became the protagonist on the stage.
The match between Lazio and Valencia is on December 5th, two weeks later.
Before that, there were two Serie A games.
Lazio faces Ascoli at home and Livorno away.
In the home game against Ascoli, Lazio won 3:1, and in the away game at Livorno, Lazio tied with their opponent 2:2. Because there was a game against Valencia next, they always won.
There is no main force, and the players are also a little slack.
This draw caused Lazio to fall from first place in the league to second place in the league.
The first place in the league is occupied by Inter Milan with 36 points.
Because Lazio lost to Sampdoria before, now in Serie A, only Inter Milan has not lost.
Inter Milan has strengthened after acquiring Ibrahimovic and Vieira, but the most important thing is that most of its previous main competitors have languished.
Roma started well, but lacked stamina.
Now it seems that only Lazio can compete with Inter Milan.
Last season Lazio competed with Juventus, but this season their opponent has been Inter Milan.
※※※
The match between Lazio and Valencia is one of the most watched matches in Europe.
Before this game, Flores changed his arrogance from last time and said in a low-key manner that they were not here to compete for first place in the group.
"There is no suspense about being first in the group. Although the media said it is theoretically possible... but that only exists in theory. We came to Rome with a relaxed mentality for this game..." Flores said during the game
Said this at the previous press conference.
That's exactly what he did.
In this game, he replaced many main players and gave many young players opportunities.
As for Soler? He simply didn't come to Rome. Reporters asked the club's general manager Carboni, and Carboni's answer was: "The president has some personal matters that need to be dealt with."
What private matter?
Carboni didn't say.
But everyone can guess it.
Soler just didn't want to come to Rome and be humiliated again.
He had already foreseen the outcome of this game.
Even if Flores plays the full lineup, it won't change the result in the end.
Valencia will definitely lose to Lazio.
Even because he was watching the game from the sidelines, Lazio might be tempted to score more goals to humiliate themselves.
So Soler simply stopped coming. He would not give Chang Sheng the chance to continue humiliating himself on the spot.
Sure enough, Soler didn't come, Flores gave in again, and Lazio was much gentler in this game.
In the end, Lazio defeated Valencia 2:0 at home.
Won first place in the group with an undefeated record and advanced to the top 16.
While many teams are working hard to qualify for the group stage, the winning teams never seem to have to worry about not qualifying for the group stage.
※※※
After qualifying from the Champions League group stage, UEFA conducted a draw ceremony for the top 16.
The first team in the group plays first away and then at home.
Lazio, as the first team in the group, was drawn against Celtic, the second team in Group F.
This is considered a good pick because the Celtics are not a very strong team.
After the draw, Chang Sheng ignored the Champions League. For him, the league was more important. You know, his goal this season is to win the league championship.
※※※
Next in the league, Lazio will encounter strong opponents one after another.
In the league, before Christmas, Lazio will face Fiorentina, Roma, Inter Milan and Parma.
If nothing goes wrong, the game against Inter Milan will be a key battle to decide who is the champion during the winter break.
Lazio is now one point behind Inter Milan.
The competition between the two sides was very fierce.
Fiorentina, under the leadership of Prandelli, has also performed very well. Currently, after fourteen league rounds, it ranks fifth with 23 points.
Roma is the team that has made the most progress this season. Under the leadership of Spalletti, they have achieved ten wins, two draws and two losses, ranking third with 32 points.
Among them, only Parma is worse, with only nine points, ranking second from last.
In the fifteenth round, Lazio challenged Fiorentina away from home.
The two sides fought fiercely for ninety minutes, and in the end Lazio lost 1:2.
Lost their second game of the season.
Inter Milan defeated Empoli 3:0 in the away game, and the point difference between the two sides was widened to four points.
For a time, there was thunderous cheers in the media.
Lazio's loss can simply be described as a joy to hear.
In fact, there was no such reaction the last time Lazio lost to Sampdoria, even though it was Lazio's first defeat of the season.
Because at that time, even if Lazio lost to Sampdoria, Lazio was still first in the league. There was really nothing to be ashamed of. If Lazio were to be criticized after losing a game, it would be too stupid.
But this time, things are different.
Lazio lost, and the gap between Lazio and Inter Milan, the league's first team, became wider and wider.
This fact emboldened those who wanted to take advantage of Chang Sheng and Lazio, making them feel that the time had come and they could finally speak out what they were holding back.
As a result, the media was filled with all kinds of ridicule and ridicule.
This scene is truly dizzying.
The situation changed so quickly that they didn't even react.
In the first half of the chapter, it was said that Lazio was already invincible. In the second half, Lazio suddenly suffered two consecutive rounds of defeats, changing from first place in the league to second place in the league, and was further and further left behind by Inter Milan...
The first half is heaven and the second half is hell.
After losing the game, the media was full of voices ridiculing Chang Sheng and Lazio.
It seems like the end of the world is coming for Lazio... (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
