5 goals (10 points), 1 assist (2 points), Man of the Match (5 points), plus roster (1 point), appearances (2 points), wins (2 points), plus Dortmund is the second most prestigious team in the Bundesliga, a veritable German domestic giant, with double bonuses. In this game alone, Chen Xiaoliang obtained 44 skill points and a single-game skill card with a hat-trick reward.
This season's [Reward: You can get equal training points when you gain skill points in the new season] also comes with 44 training points.
Training value 14→58
Skill value 48 → 92
This is the game with the biggest reward in my 2 and a half years of playing football.
But it’s not over yet, there are still enemy missions.
【Enemy: Jude Bellingham】
[Rival Mission: Win the two-round series]
[Restriction conditions: The total player score after two games, the enemy's score is lower than the host's]
[Mission Reward: 2 Legendary Star Cards of the Enemy's Team]
Complete the task without any suspense and press the button without hesitation to get the reward.
"Hua Hua Hua", a bunch of figures rolled in the system, bringing out the sound of cards flipping. Soon, two figures emerged, which surprised Chen Xiaoliang.
[Reward: Peak Mathias Sammer Scavenger Attribute Card (5 minutes)]
[Reward: Peak Alan Shearer penalty area shot card (5 minutes)]
Alan Shearer still holds the league goal record when the Premier League was 22 teams, and Sammer was the core player when Germany won the European Cup in 1996. He was the last sweeper in the football world. He also won the Golden Ball Award that year, becoming the second player to win the Golden Ball Award as a defensive player after the "Football Emperor" Beckenbauer.
However, considering Chen Xiaoliang's current abilities, these star ability cards that once played a huge role when his attributes were seriously insufficient are no longer able to bring about such obvious improvements.
Fortunately, I have accumulated 13 cards of various types now. I just need to wait for 22 training points, accumulate the training points to 80, and increase the strength to 18. Then I can use the super points brought by the 10 cards to increase the strength to above 18.
After completing the Nemesis mission, there will be an achievement flashing. When you click it, a dazzling golden light will appear, which obviously means that more than one achievement has been completed.
[The first hat trick achievement in the Champions League has been achieved]
[Achievement Reward: Any technical attribute below 18 +1]
[The UEFA Champions League single game four-goal achievement has been achieved]
[Achievement Reward: Any hidden attribute +2]
[The UEFA Champions League single game five goals achievement has been achieved]
[Achievement Reward: Any attribute above 18 +1]
If shouting hadn't been for the fact that the four people downstairs might hear him and come up to ask him what happened, Chen Xiaoliang would have shouted "Fuck" long ago.
This is like someone giving you a pillow just when you want to go to sleep.
He first used the bonus of +1 below 18 to increase Strength from 17 to 18, and then used the bonus of +1 above 18 to increase it to 19. He then used three single-game skill cards, an upgrade material card, and six star cards, Vieri, John Barnes, Van Basten, Matthias Sammer, Alan Shearer, and Pirlo, to convert them into 1 point of attribute of +1 above 18 through the [Star Card System], and increased Strength to 20.
Normally, after adding attributes, there would be a tingling sensation like being electrocuted passing through the body after a few seconds. Today, 3 points were added, and they were all added to the physical attributes. The feeling was like electric torture.
"ah……!!!"
Even if he didn't want to scream at this moment, he couldn't help it.
When the four people downstairs heard this, they were stunned for a moment, looking at each other, and then the three people who were having breakfast looked at Helena together.
Helena called out, "Chen?"
There was no response. As usual, even if it was the day after the game, Chen Xiaoliang would definitely get up at 7:30.
About 2 seconds later, their worry surpassed their confusion. Cesco and Kva immediately ran upstairs, followed by Perrone and Helena. The four of them ran towards Chen Xiaoliang 's bedroom.
When Cesco opened the door, he saw Chen Xiaoliang lying on the bed with his upper body naked and covered in sweat.
"List?"
"List?!"
Helena went over and shook Chen Xiaoliang, and Chen Xiaoliang slowly woke up.
Chen Xiaoliang looked at the four people who were somewhat panicked, and was speechless: Shit... Did I faint...
Helena looked him up and down, wondering if he had worked too hard last night and was exhausted. "What's wrong with you?"
Chen Xiaoliang sat up and said, "Uh... I... had a nightmare."
Sweat flowed down his body, leaving undulating traces along the contours of his muscles.
Not only Helena, but also Cesco, Kva and Perrone were staring at him in a trance.
Damn, when did he build muscle? This is not Chen Xiaoliang, this is Bruce Lee!
The most surprised person was Perrone: No wonder he is so good at the age of 18! I have to learn from him!
Of course, Helena was the most delighted. She blushed as she thought to herself: Last night... it seems that I didn't... but I turned off the lights... and didn't see it clearly...
The electric shock feeling dissipated after a while, and what followed was a feeling of full of energy as if there was an endless supply of energy flowing into the body.
After running with three teammates, Chen Xiaoliang sent Helena to the airport and went directly to the Trigoria base in the afternoon.
After the recovery training, everyone, under the guidance of fitness coach Carlos Larin, competed in bench press and leg press in the gym. Although football players do not regard bench press weight as an important physical fitness indicator like basketball players, but instead use leg press, the bench press can still test a player's overall strength level.
In the past, Smalling and Gvardiol have always been the champions of these two items in the team. Central defenders have higher requirements for confrontation and weight, which enables them to have an innate advantage in this regard.
But today Chen Xiaoliang was eager to try.
It didn't matter that this shot came out, the data that came out scared his teammates.
He can bench press 150 kg easily, but Carlos Larin is not allowed to do it again. Firstly, football players do not need such strong upper limb and chest muscle strength. Secondly, if overload training leads to shoulder or arm ligament and muscle strain, it will be counterproductive.
As for the leg press, Carlos Larin stood behind him, ready to support his waist at any time, while Smalling and Gvardiol stood at both ends of the barbell, dragging it with their hands to prevent accidents.
Chen Xiaoliang lay on his back cushion, with his legs tilted upward and began to push the thick barbell plates.
In the first set, 300 kg was easy. That’s nothing. Casemiro, the defensive midfielder who currently plays for Manchester United, can do a set of 300 kg.
The second time, 375 kg, was still easy, but the two central defenders began to feel that something was wrong.
The third time, 450 kilograms. At this time, all the front-line players around gathered together, as if they were watching a spectacle.
The fourth time, 500 kilograms, Gvadior's mouth opened wide in surprise and couldn't close it.
The gym was filled with exclamations of "Waterfake" in English and "che cazzo!" in Italian.
Mourinho and Forti were also attracted by the crowd's vision.
Afterwards, 525 kg and 550 kg, although it was a bit difficult, Chen Xiaoliang still lifted them.
In the end, it was Carlos Larín who called a halt.
Everyone looked at the sweaty Chen Xiaoliang and couldn't help but wonder:
Is he really a human? He weighs 75kg, but can he push 550kg on the leg press? Is the equipment broken?!
Mourinho was also surprised, but he told everyone that when he was at Inter Milan, Zanetti was 178 cm tall and maintained a weight of 75 kg most of the time. He could push 510 kg with his legs and 310 kg with one leg.
It was thanks to his strong body that he was able to play football until he was over 40 years old.
He is a backcourt player, but not all players with long careers work hard on muscle and strength.
At Manchester United, Giggs, who plays in the forward field, takes a different approach. He practices yoga every day and focuses on flexibility training to maintain his flexibility and reduce the chance of injury in confrontation.
Mourinho was not only amazed at Chen Xiaoliang's physical fitness, but also since he showed his skills today and amazed the whole team, many players seemed to be stimulated and strengthened their personal training subjects under the motivation.
After 3 days of training, the competition is here again.
There is also good news for Roma. Not only have the two AC Milan teams advanced to the quarterfinals of the Champions League and are waiting for the draw, but Napoli and Juventus have also eliminated their respective opponents Salzburg Red Bull and Nantes and advanced to the quarterfinals of the Europa League.
This means that in the later schedule, Napoli will need to fight on two fronts and will not be able to get enough rest every week in the league.
Juventus, who were penalized 15 points and are currently ranked 8th in the league, were extremely low-key at the pre-match press conference.
Head coach Allegri praised Mourinho and Roma for their phenomenal achievements, and repeatedly praised Chen Xiaoliang by name, saying that with his current performance, he is fully qualified to be in the top three of the Ballon d'Or.
And he seemed to be reminding all the coaches who would face Roma next time, saying:
"Please stop regarding Chen as a young player. If you focus too much on his age of 18, you will only be blinded. His performance has nothing to do with his age. He is one of the best in Serie A and even in Europe."
When it comes to the young talents in the team, Allegri can only sigh.
The team's main player, Chiesa, who wears the No. 7 jersey, is injured again. He just rested for 10 days in mid-February due to muscle fatigue, and on March 2nd he rested for another 5 days due to knee pain. He originally wanted to recover and play early today, but it turned out to be a joint injury, and he would have to rest for at least 35 days.
Ever since he suffered a cruciate ligament injury in his left knee last season, his knee has been in recurring problems. So far this season, he has spent half of the time recovering from the injury. After finally recovering from the injury, he played one or two games and then went back to recover again.
Italy, as the new European Cup champion, failed to qualify for the World Cup through the play-offs, which was not unrelated to his injury and inability to play.
Pogba, the midfielder who returned from Manchester United, has recovered from his injury, but his condition is average. He played for 13 minutes in the match against Torino on March 1 and will still not start in this game.
Finally, on the afternoon of March 6 at the Olympic Stadium in Rome, Allegri deployed a 3-5-1-1 formation, showing a determined attitude of defending and counterattacking.
Goalkeeper Szczesny;
The back three: Sandro, Bremer and Danilo;
Kostic, left wingback, Cuadrado, right wingback;
The three defensive midfielders Rabiot, Locatelli and young Faccioli;
Di Maria played a position between midfielder and attacking midfielder, while Vlahovic was alone in the front.
The last time they faced Roma at home in Turin, Allegri sent out young player Mireti, but Chen Xiaoliang taught him a lesson with a sentence "Welcome to Serie A".
In this game, facing a lineup short of players, he sent out another "prince" Facioli, hoping that he could combine Klopp's Baicetic sticky tactics and the three midfielders' human wall defense strategy to limit Chen Xiaoliang's performance.
Mourinho's side is still making stable rotations. Despite the 7-1 win in the last game, the players who need to be rotated still have to be rotated in the long season.
goalkeeper Patricio;
The four defenders are Bigna, Mancini, Gvardiol and Spinazzola;
Double defensive midfielders Matic and Wijnaldum;
Central midfielder Chen Xiaoliang;
Kva, Cesco and Pellegrini form a trident.
The 7-1 result in the last game made this match, whether it was media predictions, fans' mentality or the handicap levels of bookmakers, all lean towards Roma.
But this is not a good phenomenon.
Juventus, with a desperate mentality, had been efficiently keeping its formation intact since the start of the game, never advancing rashly and never leaving anyone out. After getting the ball, they were not in a hurry to advance because of the limited number of people in the frontcourt. Instead, they stabilized the players in the midfield and backcourt, forced Roma to give up high-pressure defense, and then slowly advanced with limited forces.
To put it bluntly, today Allegri is not fighting a positional war or a counterattack, but a guerrilla war.
We will only touch you once and will never use our main force to fight you head-on. If we can steal the ball, that's the best; if we can't, that's fine. If we can get a point against the powerful Roma, we will consider it a success today.
Chen Xiaoliang was not surprised by the way Juventus played today, but he was surprised that he met Vlahovic. The rival mission was not triggered. After asking the system, he found out that Vlahovic is still the same Vlahovic, but Chen Xiaoliang is no longer the same Chen Xiaoliang. There is a gap in the strength of the two, so there is no such thing as a "rival".
Di Maria’s mission to become a superstar is still there, but the progress is an embarrassing 0/5…
[Superstar Mission: Complete 5 steals when Di Maria is in possession of the ball]
[Mission Reward: Di Maria Skill Training Package]
[Task progress: 0/5]
In the 3rd minute, Binya tripped Kostic while defending on the right, and the referee awarded a free kick.
Di Maria kicked the free kick from the left side with his left foot into the penalty area. The ball was kicked very low and fell on the grass after entering the penalty area. Vlahovic, who was moving towards the near post, gently pushed the ball with his left foot, and Patricio, who was guarding the near post, fell to the ground and pressed the ball under him.
Allegri did not let Facioli run all over the field with Chen Xiaoliang. Ever since Klopp had done the experiment, the head coaches knew that it was meaningless to send someone to compete with Chen Xiaoliang in physical strength.
But as long as Chen Xiaoliang approaches the offensive third zone, Facioli will begin to consciously approach him, especially when Chen Xiaoliang is in a desperate state, trying to cut off the passing routes given to him by others and force him to receive the ball away from the offensive third zone.
Chen Xiaoliang was not in a hurry. Facing dense defense, he could only pass the ball patiently and wait for the opportunity to appear.
In the 11th minute, Roma launched an attack from the left.
Before crossing the midfield line and approaching the left offensive area, four Juventus players, Danilo, Cuadrado, Di Maria and Facioli surrounded Roma's wing attack in a circle.
Spinazzola was blocked from dribbling the ball and passed it to Chen Xiaoliang who was in front of him.
After receiving the ball, Chen Xiaoliang did not turn around and try to rush forward, but took a few steps back, attracted Facioli to come over, and then passed the ball to Perrone who came to support in the middle.
At this time, the defensive players' attention was on Chen Xiaoliang and Perrone. Spinazzola . Perrone did not pass it directly to him, but gave it to the retreating Kva. After receiving the ball, Kva immediately passed it to Spinazzola who was advancing like a wall pass.
Four consecutive one-touch passes instantly broke through Juventus' encirclement.
Seeing Spinazzola was about to go downfield, Danilo immediately chased back.
Kva made a diagonal run into the penalty area, Perrone stayed behind to support, while Chen Xiaoliang ran towards the top of the arc in the middle.
Spinazzola immediately passed the ball back to Chen Xiaoliang!
After the ball rolled over, Chen Xiaoliang stopped the ball with his left foot. Facioli, Cuadrado and Locatelli stood in front of Chen Xiaoliang, and Di Maria was behind him to prevent harassment!
A three-man wall lined up in a row, and Chen Xiaoliang cut in from left to right along the penalty area line. He first accelerated, but failed to create an obvious shooting space, and instead attracted nearby Rabiot and Bremer to surround him.
In an instant, five people surrounded Chen Xiaoliang from the front and back!
This was a bit embarrassing. Facing the eight densely packed legs in front of him, even if he wanted to pass a low ball to Cesco in the penalty area, he could not guarantee that the ball would not hit the legs of anyone in front of him.
If you make a lob pass, the distance will be too close and the ball will hit the defensive player in front of you before it is lifted.
Chen Xiaoliang had no choice but to push the ball to the right to Pellegrini who was waiting on the right side of the penalty area.
After receiving the ball, Pellegrini passed it directly into the penalty area. Bremer, Locatelli and others who had just blocked Chen Xiaoliang immediately retreated to the penalty area to defend.
But they were still a step too late, Pellegrini's pass was very accurate, Cesco overpowered Sandro to head the ball and scored!
"Yeah!" the whole audience cheered!
But the chess piece of the right linesman was raised and then slowly dropped.
The referee consulted the video referee team and then ran to watch VAR.
Huang Jianxiang: "Juventus really lowered their profile today and played a counter-attack against Roma at the Olympic Stadium with a very low profile."
Xie Hui: "We have to lower our attitude. Xiaoliang is in great form recently. When he cut inside just now, five people surrounded him. This was simply the courtesy of a football king."
Huang Jianxiang: "Here comes the slow motion. Cesco was indeed offside. Sandro was very smart! Neither Bremer nor Danilo went out to block the ball in the penalty area. He stayed next to Cesco. Just when Pellegrini was about to pass the ball, he suddenly moved forward to create an offside."
Xie Hui: "This should also be the design of the team's tactics. After all, it is impossible to defend Xiaoliang with one or two people in the midfield. He can shoot from long range, get into the penalty area to grab points, and compete for headers. He is fast and has good physical fitness. He can only be double-teamed by multiple people."
"If there are too many people in one area of ​​the football field, there will inevitably be fewer people in other areas. In the penalty area, Sandro has no height advantage when facing Cesco one-on-one..."
Huang Jianxiang flipped through the information: "1.81 meters."
Xie Hui: "But he is flexible, so this offside strategy is very useful. However, once it is used once and the tactical arrangement is exposed, it may not work the same way next time. It depends on how Cesco and his teammates respond."
Having missed the chance to score, Roma had to look for another opportunity.
Facing his main opponent today, the 22-year-old Facioli, Chen Xiaoliang commented that he is much stronger than Mireti in the last match. This advantage has nothing to do with technology, but the fact that he is obviously more mature on the psychological level and can better integrate into the team's tactics.
However, after several close defensive efforts by Facioli, he was shocked both mentally and physically.
He looked at Chen Xiaoliang in disbelief, thinking: Is this guy really only 18 years old?! What kind of body is he in?! He was like a steel plate. When he was standing and controlling the ball, he didn't even shake when I bumped into him!
When the ball was dead, he asked his senior Locatelli: "Why is this guy so strong? I can't carry him..."
Locatelli patted him on the shoulder and said, "He does have good physical fitness, but don't underestimate yourself. There is not that much difference between you two."
Facing his senior's consolation, Fagioli didn't know whether it was real consolation or just a way of comforting him...
Soon, Locatelli also noticed something was wrong.
In the 22nd minute, Roma's corner attack was blocked by Bremer. Facing a hard-earned counterattack opportunity, Di Maria drove straight in after getting the ball, competing with Bigna who stayed behind to move forward.
Vlahovic ran in front while restraining the defense of Perrone and Spinazzola. Chen Xiaoliang spread his legs and retreated from Juventus' penalty area to his own penalty area as if he was riding on a Hot Wheels.
Di Maria is 35 years old after all, and his absolute speed has declined a lot compared to his peak. While running, he found that the chance was not great, so he slowed down on the wing, panting, controlled the ball, and waited for his teammates to press forward.
At this time, Locatelli stepped forward and Di Maria passed the ball before Bigna could press him in return.
Locatelli simply fired a powerful long shot from 37 meters away from the goal. The ball flew along the grass and aimed at the left post!
Patricio is indeed free tonight, but that doesn't mean he will be distracted.
The old goalkeeper has played football for half his life. Even when he represented Portugal to win the European Cup, he was always nervous all the way. Unlike this season, there are so many advantageous situations and many times he only receives a few shots in the entire game.
Although Locatelli's kick was powerful, his strength was not strong enough to cover the ultra-long distance of 37 meters in an instant. Patricio fell to the ground and hugged the ball, then immediately got up and threw the ball to Chen Xiaoliang who was slowing down.
Chen Xiaoliang received the ball, passed it, turned around, and started, rushing towards Juventus' half like a high-speed train that arrived at the station and immediately turned around and started moving.
Locatelli, who had just made a long shot, knew that he could not outrun Chen Xiaoliang and had no time to return to his position and then defend, so he simply moved sideways to block his advance.
Facing Chen Xiaoliang who was charging forward like the wind, Locatelli confidently went forward, just like he had just done to comfort his junior fellow apprentice Faccioli, preparing to push him with his body first, and if that didn't work, he would gently pull him with his hands, and then see if Chen Xiaoliang's dribbling would become unstable and if he had a chance to steal the ball.
Once the script is ready, the play will be performed immediately.
Locatelli rushed over at full speed, raised his left hand, and leaned his left foot towards Chen Xiaoliang. In an instant, a revolving lantern of question marks seemed to spin above his head.
If this were a movie, he would have finished filming the first second he appeared on the screen.
Chen Xiaoliang swayed slightly while advancing at full speed. Although his balance ability was not yet full, his great advantages in strength and explosiveness made Locatelli's collision come with the reaction force from Chen Xiaoliang, which returned to him doubly.
Facioli, who stayed in the backcourt and did not participate in the counterattack, watched Locatelli fall backwards to the ground like a bicycle hitting a truck , and finally realized that this senior was not only comforting him, but also comforting himself.
Rabiot, Facioli, and Danilo on the right side immediately came over to form a circle again.
By using his speed and explosive power in open areas, coupled with his current strength, Chen Xiaoliang is almost unstoppable. However, when his speed cannot be fully utilized in a small space, he still has to rely on technique and dribbling to get past opponents.
Chen Xiaoliang will not take the initiative to use his immature abilities to confront the opponent's trap. The knife is already on Juventus' neck, just waiting for someone to make the final strike. At this distance, he has many ways to choose from to attack.
Without waiting for the three to approach, he swung his right foot and kicked the ball forward. The ball turned in the air, passed over Danilo's head and landed in the front left. After landing, the ball rotated and rolled to the left for a while. No. 77 Kwa just got in and caught the ball.
Catch the ball, change direction, and enter the penalty area!
Cesco and Pellegrini followed up in the penalty area, Kva kept dribbling, Bremer in front of him came to block, and Danilo behind him had no time to leave Chen Xiaoliang and chase him.
When he was about to get close to the goal post and Szczesny had already bent his legs and opened his arms to block his close-range shot, Kva pushed the ball sideways with his left foot!
Bremer fell to the ground and stole the ball! The ball slipped through!
Cesco made a cross from the middle and shot from the ground! But the ball still slipped through!
Huang Jianxiang: "Another shot from the back post! Finally scored! In the 24th minute, Pellegrini received a cross from Kvaratskhelia in front of the goal. Cesco didn't get the ball at the first point in the middle, but it drew almost all the defensive attention, allowing him to easily score into the empty goal from the back post. As expected, Roma took a 1-0 lead."
Xie Hui: "It was very beautiful and very clean. Juventus thought they had a good counterattack opportunity, but neither Di Maria nor Vlahovic had an advantage in speed. They also retreated too deep and took too long to run."
"After pressing forward once, the midfielder couldn't get back immediately, which gave Xiaoliang a huge space in the midfield to speed up the attack. You see, Locatelli only climbed up from the midfield after Pellegrini scored a goal."
Huang Jianxiang: "Locatelli was indeed in a mess, but Xiaoliang's physique is incredible. Coach Xie, have you ever encountered particularly strong players when you were playing football?"
Xie Hui: "That's still a lot, especially for Asian players. Many European players, especially those from Africa or of African descent, are as strong as bulls, but it's rare to be able to bounce Locatelli like this. I've only seen it with Lukaku before."
Huang Jianxiang: "It's incredible. Juventus was able to hold out for 22 minutes today, mainly because of the double-teaming of Xiaoliang in the middle. But just now, they gave him a little space, and Xiaoliang took advantage of the opportunity when Danilo came to defend and Cuadrado didn't have time to retreat, and passed a good ball to Kvaratskhelia."
Xie Hui: "Hasn't Xiaoliang created enough incredible things for us?"
Over there, Inter Milan had already played against Lecce for 70 minutes in the second half. Lukaku, who was sitting on the bench and had hardly had a chance to start recently, suddenly sneezed.
He just doesn't understand why he was so successful at Inter Milan before, but after going to Chelsea for a season, he can't do it again when he comes back. He is still a player loaned to Inter Milan by Chelsea, and he still longs to play in the Premier League again.
After all, that is the super stage with the most intense competition and the most attention.
