Do whatever you want [football]

Chapter 157

Running to France could not avoid playing in the rain and snow. Randall felt as melancholy as the lambs, but he was so melancholy that he disappeared after learning the starting lineup of Lyon!

Ha ha ha ha!Lyon really wants to dominate the offensive banner at their home court!

Randall was refreshed after watching the first episode. He respected Houllier as a man!I will definitely attack with all my strength and go forward bravely!

Of course, although the pre-match bets were correct, and the starting lineup was basically the same as he expected, but football is round and they are away, so the game still has to be played seriously.

As usual, Randall was the first to get off the bus after it arrived at the Olympic Park Stadium. The moment he got off the bus, he heard someone shouting "Li Xian", obviously a fellow villager calling him!

Because of the Chinese students who visit St. James' Park every week, almost all the players on the team are very familiar with Randall's Chinese name. It is no surprise that everyone found that Randall has already walked towards the group of Chinese fans.

Behind Randall is Parker, and the deputy captain Modric is at home today with his girlfriend and "brings his younger brother" by the way, acting as a guardian.

He will be injured for at least a week and will miss the first round against Lyon.

The Magpies fans waiting here are indeed old folks from their hometown. Randall was in a very happy mood. It’s almost Chinese New Year. When I see my fellow villagers, I will inevitably say a few words of greeting and sign for everyone.

Just now, when he asked a petite girl what kind of New Year greetings she wanted, the image of the girl in his heart suddenly changed, "Li Li! I want you to write about Li Xian, the magic flute that lasts forever!"

Randall: →_→

Seeing Randall's subtle little eyes, the surrounding fans laughed.

Ballack poked Messi, who had just recovered from his injury and still caught up with the game, and asked, "What are they talking about?"

Messi looks confused, how do I know what they are talking about?Ozil was as confused as him.

Ballack rolled his eyes at the two language experts, and Messi continued to sign his name honestly, when he heard that some fans called his name, er, there seemed to be a small grid.

"Li Xian! Who is your favorite, Messi or Anthony? ~(≧▽≦)/~"

Messi immediately guessed what the problem might be, and glanced at his boss!

Randall patted the little fan who was only as tall as his chin. Why do you ask such a question as a teenager?He stared at the boy and said, "The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, do you understand?"

Being stared down by him at a close distance, the young man nodded in confusion, the tips of his ears blushing.

After spending a few minutes signing autographs for the fans and writing New Year's greetings, Randall waved to everyone and said, "Thank you for your support. I wish you a happy New Year in advance. We are going to prepare for the game."

"Happy New Year~"

Recently, the Magpie players who have practiced this Chinese sentence to a high degree of proficiency have followed suit, shouting this sentence is always right.

They greeted the other fans in English, and followed Randall into the aisle of the stadium.

It was said to be raining today, but it was actually sleet. When the players were warming up, Randall also entered the field with the players and warmed up with them.

This also allowed him to meet the boos of Lyon fans in advance.

Speaking of which, the Lyon jersey is also white, and the atmosphere at home is quite good. Landauer is used to these greetings, and he doesn't care. Before everyone warmed up and returned to the player tunnel, he didn't forget to run to the away fans' stands to join the expedition to France. Fans who supported them waved.

Houllier also watched the Newcastle players warm up from the sidelines, returning to the dressing room before Randall led the players back to the dressing room.

Lyon has dominated the country in recent years, and their performance in the Champions League is considered stable. Real Madrid's Champions League trip to Shiliu Lang, they contributed a lot to Lyon.

But that doesn't mean fans don't want to go one step further!

Houllier has completed the task in this year's league ahead of schedule, and the Champions League has also entered the top 16. Whether he can lead the team to the top 8 depends on today's home game——

Their opponents are magpies!Since the season, the Magpies have only lost one game at home, and they still have 7 substitutes, which is almost equivalent to giving up early!

So he chose to take a risk today, win the game, and try to let Newcastle get away goals as little as possible.

But he didn't expect Messi to catch up with this game. It seems that his condition is not bad. This game may be more difficult to play.

Of course Randall didn't know that Houllier had observed Messi's state in advance. When he returned to the locker room, he called the players in front of him to set up tactics. Gerry said: "I think Owen is going to explode today, what do you think?"

This guy was born for the big scene!

After these two rounds, Randall visually judged that Kaka would never get the Champions League Golden Boot!

Allegri looked at his expression of "I have Owen, why am I so awesome", and patted him on the shoulder helplessly, "You should say this in front of Michael."

Randall spread his hands, "I don't! I don't want to shoot that guy's rainbow farts! He can already fart to the sky! Leo is cuter!"

Compared to the "black sheep", his Leo is the good sheep!Although the legs are a bit short, Owen is also a pony /(ㄒoㄒ)/~~!

That's right, today he sent the death three short and short.

His rants in the locker room and Allegri, the players lining up outside the court naturally can't know, they are holding the little caddy in line, but don't expect them to be honest, this is completely non-existent, Marcelo Now I'm secretly taking pictures of Messi's ass and pretending nothing happened.

Messi turned around, glanced at him first, and then looked at Ozil behind him. He saw Ozil squatting on the ground and playing some high-five games with the little caddy. Messi immediately locked the suspicion people.

The disheveled head looked at Messi innocently, but Messi suddenly patted Ozil on the back.

Ozil turned around in an instant, and immediately stared at the puffy head!

The little ball boy across from him saw it all, now grinning as Ozil pounced on Marcelo and took another look at Messi.

Messi stretched out his hand to the little guy, and the little guy immediately played (￣ー￣) people (^▽^) high fives with him.

Behind Marcelo, Pepe, who looked away from them with a look of disgust at the moment, separated Ozil and Marcelo after Parker turned around and shouted, and asked them to line up obediently.

The referee team has come out, be quiet!

Ozil and Marcelo had no choice but to separate obediently. After the two stood in line, they led the little caddy into the field.

In the Champions League theme song, they couldn't help shrinking their necks the moment they entered the stadium. It's sleet and rainy today, it's cold!

Randall also shook hands with Houllier at this moment, and then walked towards his command area.

Because the weather is really cold today, he wore a thick scarf and wrapped it tightly around his neck, so Allegri stuffed a black straight-handled umbrella into his hand at this moment.

Randall wanted to stuff it back, but based on Allegri's expression of "either open an umbrella or go back to the coach's bench", he chose to pretend to be cowardly.

No way, this guy is less and less afraid of him!

It's all the BBC's fault (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻!

In this case, Randall could only stand on the sidelines with an umbrella, but his eyes drifted to Leon's bench.

Benzema!

The current Benzema should actually be called Benzema, although he is still a young tiger who has just been weaned, and has already seen his style for the first time.

Although this guy scored more than 20 goals in Lyon, his demeanor on the court is completely different from that after he went to Real Madrid. At this time, Benzema was called "White Ronaldo" not long after his debut. The style of play is not only somewhat similar to Ronaldinho, but also somewhat elegant.

No matter from any point of view, buying Benzema now is excellent, but if you want Benzema to show such style, there are prerequisites. This guy was called the king when he was in Lyon Thousands of pets.But Lyon never thought that Benzema was not for sale. They cultivated the best Benzema and sold him for the best price that could be sold at that time.

So Randall can only look at other people's little fresh meat with regret. He likes this cat, and the way he likes it is to look at it to satisfy his greed.

He can't give Benzema more, and his magpie is not a star factory.

Randall's gaze attracted Houllier's vigilance, and also made Benzema, who was watched by him, a little Alexander——

Are you looking at him?This should... It depends on him, right?

Benzema, the Frenchman, after confirming that he was not self-indulgent, looked back fiercely.

Randall immediately blinked at Benzema, and Houllier looked very ugly when he saw this.

What do you want?Are you going to hook up with our little fresh meat on the spot?Tell you, this guy is not for sale!Not for sale!

Randall was initially popular in Europe, with countless fans, because of the video of him and Nesta.As more and more materials are revealed now, Lan Chui among the players has either become a Newcastle player, or he is blowing him every now and then on Twitter.

Benzema also wants to join the blue blowing group!So he joined Randall's Twitter early.

However, Randall's fans immediately exceeded [-] million. This number has already left Kaka behind. Of course, he will not pay attention to him, a Lyon player who has just been promoted to the first team.

Benzema has no regrets, because he is full of confidence, as long as he can play, he dares to find the locker room after the game and ask for a group photo!If he scores a goal, he will be thicker...

The players around Benzema poked at the guy who couldn't take his eyes off Randall.

Okay, okay, didn't you see the coach's gaze?If it wasn't for your kid being favored, just wait to be thrown into the cold palace.

Under the reminder of his companions, Benzema could only look away aggrievedly, and Randall immediately smiled and looked at the field. Just after taking a look, he found Messi's faint little eyes.

Randall: ...

At this time, Sky Sports commentator Richard Coyce, who was explaining the game on the spot, laughed, "It was a very interesting picture just now, what did Messi's eyes say just now?"

His partner Andy Gray has already picked up the words and introduced to the audience: "The player Randall looked at affectionately just now is Karim Benzema, a young player born in 87 and a forward. During the season he was beaten by Houllier..."

Not included in the big list, Lewandowski, who came to Randall's house to watch the game with Modric today, was expressionless.

Benzema?He remembered this guy!

The magic flute patted him on the shoulder sympathetically.

It can be said that the Magpies' midfield competition is fierce, but the forward competition is even more fierce. Luca Toni and Irving are now competing for posts more often, not to mention Lewandowski.

At this time, the referee blew his whistle, and the game had already started.

Magic Flute looked at his teammates on the field. They are away today, so they are wearing black second away jerseys today. His gaze fell on Irving almost immediately.

Owen's speed is really fast today, no... not quite right... Leo?

Parker won the guessing side today and picked the ball. At the beginning of the game, the ball was sent to Irving before it was passed by two feet.

Obviously, in this wave of opening fast breaks, Randall hopes to play fast from the middle.

Today Lyon played 433 like Newcastle, with Toulalang, Juninho Jr. and Thiago in the midfield.

Ballack's pass was very skillful, and it was sent perfectly behind Tulalan. Although the ball seemed to have a bit of margin, it was obviously not a problem for Owen.

At the beginning of the game, Irving had already dribbled the ball into the penalty area!

The reason why Modric was surprised was because Owen ran fast, and Messi didn't run too slow. The key is that Owen actually passed the ball!

After attracting the attention of the two defenders, Owen didn't choose to shoot himself. Instead, he passed the ball to Messi, who was running fast with short legs today. Messi passed Abidal with a fried ball in the penalty area. , Pass back to Owen!

Lyon's goalkeeper Coupe chose to attack, and Owen almost succeeded in pushing the empty goal!

Modric immediately shouted "GOAL"!

The goal was so beautiful, he looked at Lewandowski almost immediately, "Have they cooperated?"

Lewan spread his hands, expressing that he had no knowledge.

But he is not surprised that Irving will cooperate with Messi in this way. In fact, Irving often plays such tricks with Messi in front of the goal this season.

Seeing Lewandowski's expression, Modric rubbed his hair and knew in his heart that the two roommates must have discussed it in private. To be able to pick out such a ball, in addition to the tacit understanding on the field, the communication off the field is also very important. Very important.

Randall on the sidelines was obviously very happy for this lightning goal. His face, which was half hidden in the scarf, looked flushed, his eyes were full of excitement, and the umbrella that had shielded him from the wind and rain was almost gone. It became a decoration.

After the goal, Owen hugged Messi. After the two celebrated, Messi glanced at the coach on the sidelines. Owen noticed his gaze and whispered a question in his ear, and Messi nodded honestly. head.

Randall's excitement also means the distress of the home fans. Their defense just seemed defenseless under the cooperation of Messi and Irving!Just poke it and it will break!

And Benzema, who originally focused part of his attention on Randall, now only has Irving in his eyes.

He can feel that Owen is still at his peak, which is not surprising, because the England striker is not yet 28 years old.

The Magpies succeeded in the opening surprise attack, and Lyon, who fell behind at home, chose to fight to the death.

It is acceptable to be taken away by the Magpies for away goals, but if they lose, they will almost say goodbye to the Champions League trip in advance, and there is little hope of a comeback in the away game.

After returning to the midfield kick-off, the home team launched an attack.

Randall took a few glances and found that there is no reason why Lyon can dominate the country this season. Toulalan, a French specialty midfielder, is not only black and tough, but also has a unique skill in long passing. He intends to emulate Newcastle The goal just now, also tried to bypass Ballack.

One of his partners is Thiago and the other is Junior Juninho. One of these two is Portuguese and the other is Brazilian. They work very delicately at their feet. They played beautifully in this attack.

In the 7th minute, Lyon ushered in an excellent opportunity. Fred, one of Lyon's frontcourt tridents today, sent a key cross from the right. After receiving the ball, Govou posed a threat in the penalty area. After the clock, the Lyon fans collectively sighed——

Nesta tackled the ball straight out of bounds with his trademark sliding tackle.

When Gewu got up from the ground, he felt a little pain in his buttocks. He saw the Italian central defender in front of him, who was doing nothing, got up from the ground more quickly than him, and was about to defend the corner kick.

Juninho Jr. called him to remind him to get up quickly, and Gowu stood up with a heavy face, ready to fight for the header.

Set-pieces are a great weapon against short teams like Newcastle, but Shay, who started today, performed quite bravely, attacking directly and taking the ball into his arms.

An excellent attack failed, Lyon returned without success, and Newcastle's counterattack had to be careful.

Shay passed the ball to Ballack.

Ballack passed the ball again to Ozil without giving Toulalan a chance to steal it.

Today, anyone with eyes can see that Messi is extremely excited and working hard. Ozil can probably guess what Messi is thinking, and Owen scored another goal, and he began to behave in a fair and honest manner. Feed his good brother.

Randall laughed when he saw this, and he didn't want to hold an umbrella on the sidelines anymore. He felt that this look was a bit silly, so he returned to the coach's bench and secretly complained to Allegri: "I think Mesut is looking for it again. Be confident again."

This season Ozil has been criticized by many commentators, who believe that his performance is not as amazing as last season. This is obviously a newcomer wall in the Premier League.

Randall can't tell the outside world: Our big eyes are not as eye-catching this season as last season, because I played him a lot last season!This season, he has played on his own, and played by himself.

This made Ozil not only encounter some difficulties on the field, but also encountered some small psychological problems. Now it seems that the kid has regained his confidence.

Allegri looked at this silly father, and wanted to complain about his face——

As long as he has no major problems, when did you not let him start?Just like this, he still can't find confidence?It might as well use Tony!

Tony's recent performance is quite eye-catching. Sometimes a player's performance can't just look at the statistics, just like Chelsea's Didier Drogba, the statistics cannot describe his role on the field.But there is also a kind of player whose statistics can show all his outstanding performances to the fullest, and Kroos belongs to such a player.

Randall rarely returned to the bench, but it was considered by countless commentators as a way of expressing his confidence.

The rare absence of the coach on the sidelines did not affect the performance of the players on the field, especially Messi's performance.

In the 19th minute of the first half, Messi passed three people in a row on the right, broke into the penalty area, crossed with Owen, and shot in a small range under the double-team of Squillage and Chris!

Coupe made a save, but Messi aimed for a close corner and the ball hit the post and bounced into the net!

Less than 20 minutes into the game, Messi passed and shot. If no one else had a better performance in this game, Messi has already locked the best of the game in advance!

Randall rushed out of the coach's bench with the players on the bench at the moment of scoring, because the goal just now was really beautiful!

Although he has seen this kind of goal of Messi in the highlights countless times, but when he saw Messi complete such a goal right in front of his eyes, he still couldn't help himself!

Full grade!

Krypton to Messi is so cool! ~(≧▽≦)/~

What made him even more happy was that Messi ran towards him after scoring the goal. Randall immediately opened his hands and copied Messi into his arms.

The weight he got made him rub Messi's long hair with satisfaction. He has indeed lost weight recently, and it still hurts to think about it. He will make a barbecue reward when he gets home.

It's not easy being a Mei Tuan who gets fat after eating a little.

How did Messi know that his boss called him Mei Tuan in his heart?He happily sent New Year greetings to his BOSS.

Randall happily kissed him on the head, and whispered in his ear: "Good job, try to get two more, I'll wait for you to kill Michael."

Make that guy a fart!Let him fart!

Let him be a little bitch all day long, just hit him up if you have nothing to do!

Messi readily agreed.

It's not his fault, and Michael can't blame me, after all, he's just following the orders of the BOSS.

At this moment, Messi is still under 20 years old, and he has not yet reached the transcendence. When he is worried about his personal honor, the top scorer in the team, the Champions League Golden Boot, and the Premier League Golden Boot, such honors are still attractive to him.

He wants to prove his worth, he is worthy of the [-] million euros from his boss!

Houllier was full of envy when he saw Messi back on the court!

They are also coaches. Randall has Ribery on the left, Irving in the middle, and Messi on the right. Compared with others, his trident is a low-profile low-profile!

And Ribery, who was just named by Houllier in his heart, also pretended to be angry, ready to vent——

This is playing Lyon!

This is in France!

In front of the elders in his hometown, and the coach of the French team is also on the scene today, how could he not seize the opportunity?

On the contrary, the Lyon players seemed to be stimulated by Messi's genius performance just now. After a few minutes, Messi made a comeback and was brought down by Abidal and Thiago!

Maicon, who was behind Messi, pushed Abidal to the ground immediately. He played in Marseille and was no stranger to Abidal, so he was quick and accurate!

As soon as he made this action, Abidal immediately got up from the ground quickly and was about to push back.

All this happened before Messi got up from the ground, and he pressed Ozil just as he was about to get up.

Xiao Yu obviously couldn't extinguish the anger of the two teams. The referee caught the captains of Parker and Juninho Jr. and warned them to restrain the players. Then he gave Abidal and Maicon each a yellow card. But it also gave Newcastle a free kick.

Randall is not surprised by this result, nor is he satisfied.

Because the position of this foul is not very good, Messi transfers the ball to Ballack, Ballack transfers the ball to the left, and Ribery and Kletcher are on the other side.

Marcelo moved forward at this time, and Ribery became happy when he saw the shaggy head out of the corner of his eye, and immediately passed the ball to the shaggy head.

Although Marcelo's sudden advance was also expected by Houllier, and he warned the players more than once, but Marcelo's forward advance instantly made Newcastle's left side more hit and less. After attracting the defense, he immediately returned the ball to the center. Owen broke into the penalty area at the edge of the penalty area. There was no need to adjust the moment he received the ball, and he kicked the goal!

At this moment, Houlier let out a heavy breath, knowing that the whole situation was over!

If the lightning goal in less than 20 seconds at the beginning of the game gave them a sap, Messi's goal shook many players psychologically and became impatient. Irving scored twice in front of them, which almost prevented them from advancing hope—

Unless they can reverse in the second half!

But can they do it?As the coach, he has lost confidence at this moment.

The team led by 3 goals before the end of the first half. Randall applauded Irving, but he was not as excited as before.

This is what they deserve, his players have performed so well, don't they deserve to be promoted?

At the end of the game, the high-profile contest between the two top league leaders has turned into a one-sided 1:5. The Magpies fans who came with the team started the carnival mode after the game, and Lyon Fans had chosen to leave early before the end of the game.

This winter, this rainy night, one city, two states of mind.

But to Randall's surprise, they've all worked so hard!He didn't even manage to steal the limelight! ! ! !
