Chapter 560: Return to the Top of Europe

The Champions League semi-finals are Real Madrid vs Bayern, Barcelona vs Chelsea.

History is always such a coincidence. Two years ago, the Galaxy Battleship also met the Bundesliga powerhouse in the semi-finals of the Champions League. They won the battle and finally won the St. Bradley Cup.

Now it is still unclear who will win the deer, "To be honest, we are not sure at all." Dongfang Zhuo said with a wry smile on the other end of the phone.

Wang Feng understands their difficulties. In the past two seasons, Dortmund has had a youthful storm under the leadership of Klopp. Not only did Bayern miss the league championship last season, but this season is also at risk.

So the Champions League is their only salvation. The Bundesliga "King of the South" would rather touch Barcelona or Chelsea than face the Galacticos.

"Our coach Heynckes is very aware of the strength of you and Real Madrid. He said that everything can be calculated, only Wang Feng cannot be controlled."

The old coach has spent 33 years in his coaching career. During this period, he has rich experience in Borussia Borussia, Bilbao, Real Madrid and other clubs, and he has come out to take charge of Bayern three times.

In his impression, there has never been a star who can dominate the football field like Wang Feng, downplaying all tactical arrangements against him, so he has the feeling of "uncontrollable".

"In any case, we will do our best to avoid a repeat of the last tragedy."

The two talked about Huang Hu who joined Bremen this year, "He is a very energetic and active young man."

Dongfang Zhuo played against him in the Bundesliga. At that time, Huang Hu had become a stable substitute for the team, often playing three or four 10 minutes.

"It's easy to think of him when he was young." Dongfang Zhuo said: "And he is more fortunate than me. He was able to receive systematic European youth training since he was a child, and he has greater development potential in the future."

"Yes, I also hope that he can become a new generation leader of Chinese football in the future. After all, we are no longer young." Wang Feng said so hopefully.

欧联杯方面，回到主场的毕尔巴鄂竞技2：2战平沙尔克04，总比分6：4淘汰对手。

Valencia swept Alkmaar 4:0 at the Mestalla Stadium. After two rounds of defeats, the score was reversed to 5:2.

马德里竞技保持着首回合的强势表现，再次2：1战胜汉诺威96，总比分变为4：2。

All three La Liga teams have advanced to the semi-finals of the Europa League!

unprecedented!There are still 8 teams left in the European War, and La Liga has occupied 5 seats!

Known as the "Western Super League", Real Madrid and Barcelona are superior and are the two strongest clubs in today's football. They are unbeaten in the Champions League this season, and they are located in different halfs. There will be teams that will enter the final.

The other three La Liga powerhouses encircle the Europa League, Atletico Madrid's Valencia civil war, Bilbao's fight against Sporting Lisbon, and there is a high possibility that the Spanish team will win the double.

The European League's ranking in UEFA is calculated based on the results of the two major cups of the clubs in the past five seasons.

每队胜一场得2分，平一场1分，进入欧冠小组赛和16强各得3分和1分。

1 point will be added for entering the quarter-finals, semi-finals and finals. The final points are added and divided by the number of participating teams, which is the total score of the season.

Add this score to the score of the past 4 seasons to get the total score of the country. Since the places in the European competition are determined before the start of the leagues of various countries, the points of the current season will determine the situation of the next season.

Although Real Madrid and Barcelona have brought a lot of points to La Liga in the past few years, the strong performance of many teams in the Premier League has allowed them to surpass La Liga by 0.675 points in five years.

But after the end of this season, the situation can be completely reversed. Even if Chelsea finally wins the Champions League, the Premier League will be overtaken by La Liga, and Spain will once again regain the number one throne in Europe!

After this year, the structure of other European leagues will also undergo drastic changes, with the Bundesliga surpassing Serie A and rising to third place.

This means that the Bundesliga will have 4 Champions League places next season, while Serie A will only have 3 places left.

What is even more embarrassing is that Marseille, Lyon and other teams have collapsed, while other Ligue [-] teams underestimated the Europa League. As a result, their points were overtaken by the Portuguese Super League and they were completely reduced to the sixth league.

In other words, Ligue 3 No. 22 will start from the UEFA Champions League qualifying round, which is the first time this has happened in [-] years.

On April 4th, in the 9st round of La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Valencia away.

The just-promoted Galaxy Battleship was like a rainbow. Less than one minute into the game, Wang Feng shot a long shot from the outside of the penalty area to threaten the Bat Corps gate.

In the 9th minute, Real Madrid organized an attack. Modric passed a diagonal pass to Di Maria. The latter volleyed into the penalty area with the ball.

Wang Feng resisted the defensive team's header and flew to the open space. Higuain followed up and easily pushed and scored, 1:0!

Five minutes before the end of the half, Di Maria cut in from the wing and made a cross. Higuain knocked his heel forward and the ball unexpectedly flew near the penalty spot.

Just when everyone thought it was a mistake, the Chinese superstar rushed to the landing point like a ghost and scored a goal, expanding the lead for the Galaxy Battleship.

After scoring the goal, everyone in Real Madrid embraced and celebrated. Alonso said with a smile: "Gonzalo, I didn't expect you to have such an unpredictable pass!"

Higuain rubbed his head in embarrassment: "Actually, I ran a little too deep, and the ball just hit my heel."

"Haha!" Everyone laughed, "Wang Feng is the best at grabbing points, and he can make mistakes!"

What they don't know is that in the future, fans will continue to carefully study and analyze this pass and shoot cooperation through video, and regard it as one of the best in history.

In the end, Real Madrid defeated Valencia 2:0.

On April 4th, in the 12nd round of La Liga, the Galacticos ushered in the Madrid Derby at home.

Since Simeone took over as the head coach, Atletico Madrid's performance has ushered in a strong rebound. It has improved from the fire line near the relegation zone and is currently only one place away from the European theater.

"Players must understand the history of the team and understand the meaning of playing for Atletico Madrid!" Said the former double champion meritorious service, emphasizing the sense of responsibility and mission is his consistent style.

During Manzano's period, Atletico Madrid pursued ball possession, but their offensive efficiency was not satisfactory. After Simeone was in place, he drastically strengthened the defense, and the team's tactics were transformed into anti-reverse.

Make the right midfielder Juanfran withdraw and play as a right back, curb the opponent's wing attack and actively assist.

The center back fixed Miranda and Godin, and the left back used Felipe, who is also good at assists. The positions of the double midfielders Gabi and Thiago also retreated to protect the penalty area.

On the offensive side, the core front line was determined, Falcao attacked, Turan made a breakthrough from the side, and Adrian responded behind him.

Adrian, who won the Golden Ball and Golden Boot in the European Youth Championship, was not trusted by the former head coach. Simeone completely activated him, not only supporting Falcao on the wing, but also playing the position of midfielder.

So despite the gradual deterioration of Atletico Madrid's financial situation, performance is their last guarantee.

"Returning to the Champions League can solve the debt problem to a great extent. I believe Simeone can do this." Hill, one of the club's top executives, said in an interview.
