Chapter 444
When shaking hands with Li Shiguang, Houllier was completely stunned. Despair was about to completely devour the old French coach, and he couldn't even smile politely.
Although he didn't express his disdain for Li Shiguang's remarks before the game like others, Houllier was also a veteran coach. In fact, he didn't believe Li Shiguang's words that he wanted to end the series in the first round.
But at this time.
Houllier could only be glad that he didn't say too much in the media.
Otherwise, his old face would definitely be beaten over and over by Li Shiguang like those media!
Houllier had anticipated the outcome of this game.
The two sides tied 1:1, or Lyon won by one goal, or even Leeds United won by one goal. These possibilities all appeared in Houllier's mind, and he could accept these outcomes.
But now.
This is seven goals!
If Lyon wants to successfully advance to the quarterfinals, they will have to win six goals against Leeds United at Elland Road next week.
How could Lyon possibly do something that AC Milan, the Champions League champion last season and the FIFA World Player of the Year Kaka, couldn't do! ?
And the FIFA World Player of the Year is still in Leeds United!
Not only the Lyon coaching staff and the fans in the stands who left the stadium one after another when the score was 2:6 felt desperate.
The starting eleven on the field were not much better.
The moment when Osat blew the whistle to end the game.
Benzema seemed to have lost all his strength, and he fell back and collapsed directly on the grass.
This is already Benzema's third trip to the Champions League.
Although he can be regarded as a veteran in the Champions League, Benzema, who was just promoted to the Lyon first team, actually appeared as a substitute in the Champions League the first two times.
If I have to say, this year is the year when Benzema really broke out in the Champions League.
In the previous six group matches, Benzema has scored six goals and sent four assists, which is amazing.
After Lyon qualified, the French media was full of expectations and praise for Benzema, the rising star of France.
Even Benzema himself was full of imagination about this season's Champions League.
Compared with other giants, Lyon is slightly weaker, but since Porto can win the Champions League with solid defense, why can't Lyon?
Before the game started.
Benzema was full of confidence.
Even when the team was behind 1:4, Benzema did not fall down, he felt that Lyon still had a chance to turn the tables!
But reality gave the young French striker a blow.
The score was 2:7, seven away goals.
Anyone who looks at this data, even a die-hard fan of Lyon, can't say against his conscience that Lyon still has a chance to advance to the quarterfinals.
I don't know how long I lay on the grass.
I just felt that the noise in the Olympic Park Stadium gradually subsided.
Benzema opened his eyes that had been tightly closed, sighed in his heart, and was about to get up and go back to the locker room. A big bald man who had taken off his jersey and had a smile on his face suddenly appeared in front of Benzema, and by the way, blocked the dazzling lights above the Olympic Park Stadium.
His eyebrows were already soaked with sweat, and the light was blocked by this big bald man, so Benzema didn't see who the person was immediately.
When the big bald man stretched out a hand and signaled to pull him up, Benzema saw clearly that the person in front of him was Adriano who helped Leeds United overtake the score!
····
After shaking hands with Houllier, Li Shiguang did not immediately go into the player tunnel, but returned to the sidelines and happily hugged every Leeds United player who walked off the field.
Adriano and Ibrahimovic walked at the end.
When leaving the field, Ibrahimovic naturally did not forget to tease Li Shiguang not to forget to give triple bonuses.
Li Shiguang, who was amused, pretended to kick Ibrahimovic, and Ibrahimovic dodged.
This dodge made Li Shiguang notice Benzema, who was still lying on the lawn alone and sad.
Noticed this scene.
Li Shiguang's mind turned quickly, and within two seconds, he had made a decision.
So while hugging Adriano, Li Shiguang whispered in the Brazilian's ear: "Didic, I have a task for you. Lyon's No. 10 is lying on the lawn behind you. Go and exchange jerseys with him and get to know him by the way!"
Adriano is not stupid.
When Adriano saw Li Shiguang asking him to meet the Lyon striker, he knew that his head coach was up to something bad again.Thoughts.
As for what bad thoughts.
Think about what Li Shiguang said in the apartment in Milan when he persuaded me to join Leeds United, and the passionate attitude he showed.
Adriano naturally understood.
So he nodded cunningly, made a look to Ibrahimovic, turned around and walked back to the court.
····
Holding Benzema's outstretched right hand and pulling it up hard, Adriano's face was full of kind smiles: "Hello, let me meet you, my name is Adriano."
Faced with Adriano's initiative to show goodwill.
Benzema naturally did not dare to neglect, without dragging his feet, he stood up quickly, patted the dirt on his jersey, and replied a little stiffly: "Hello, my name is Benzema... uh... Karim Benzema."
Adriano smiled and patted Benzema on the shoulder: "The game is over, don't be so nervous, young man."
Benzema smiled a little, but thought to himself, it's hard not to be nervous facing you...
He still remembers the turning shot that Adriano scored.
As a striker, Benzema certainly knows how high the speed, power, body coordination and accuracy of the shot are.
When he saw the ball go in, if it wasn't for the opponent, even Benzema wanted to applaud Adriano!
What's more, the one standing in front of him is a perfect combination of speed and power, the former king of Meazza and the king of Elland Road, etc., which show his strength.
"Exchange jerseys?"
Adriano's voice interrupted Benzema's thoughts.
Unable to believe what Adriano said, Benzema pointed at his face in surprise: "Exchange jerseys? With me?"
"Of course." Adriano smiled and nodded, handing over the jersey that he had taken off and held in his hand, "There is no third person here."
Exchange jerseys with me?
Brother, how much do I weigh? ?
For a moment.
Benzema was a little flustered.
