Chapter 370 Champions League away

After Sun Fengyang announced that Kaka's injury was nothing serious, Kakaben also appeared in front of the camera. It was after the reporters blocked him at his doorstep. Kaka in front of the camera did not use crutches, was not in a wheelchair, and no one even helped him. He drove home by himself and got out of the car for interviews from the reporters.

If you only look at the appearance, you can't tell that he has been injured.

"Just as Mr. Sun said, my injury is not a big problem. If you use force in the injury, it will still hurt a little, but it doesn't affect anything. This pain is alleviating every day, and I will be able to return to the court soon. Thank you all for your concern."

Kaka smiled, and the sun shone on his face, making his face look particularly white, and even a layer of dazzling light was created on his face.

This scene made the reporters stunned. Unexpectedly, people who are thirty years old can still have such a face.

They have never seen Kaka before. When he was in Real Madrid, Kaka definitely didn't look so energetic. Later Kaka can even be described as "unclean" - his hair was messy, his beard was unshaven, his whole face looked dull, his eyes were gray, and he had no spirit at all.

This is the Kaka that everyone often saw during Real Madrid.

But since he came to Manchester City and was in the same team with his arch-rival Glory, he has regained his youthful firepower, just as if he had returned ten years ago again.

When he transferred from Real Madrid to Manchester City, many people thought that Kaka either planned to come to Manchester City to salvage and then settled the contract to go to the United States for retirement, or planned to embrace Rongguang's thighs and get one or two championships.

Unexpectedly, Kaka was not a waste of time at Manchester City. His salary was even lower than when he was in Real Madrid.

He is not here to embrace anyone. His main position is achieved through his own performance. No one dares to say that he is not worthy of his current main position in Manchester City.

No matter what happens in the future, these reporters now think that Kaka's transfer to Manchester City is a very correct choice. If he continues to stay in Real Madrid... Mourinho will not give him a chance. What everyone sees most often is that he sits on the bench gloomy and wraps his whole person in his coat, making the entire bench look a lot darker.

Seeing Kaka so sunny, everyone sincerely hopes that he can keep going so sunny. After all, he was so outstanding, but later it was so heartbreaking. I didn’t expect to see him rise again. I really hope this is not a meteor across the sky.

After a city derby with Manchester United, Manchester City welcomed their League Cup opponent in the mid-week.

Challenge the Wolves away.

However, Manchester City doesn't pay much attention to this game.

Because I just played a game with Manchester United, although Manchester City won a huge difference in the scores in this game, I still tried my best in the game, otherwise I would not be able to score such a score.

Therefore, Benitez almost replaced all the starting lineups, and even the trident was dismantled.

Kaka failed to get on the bench due to injury. Ibrahimovic also sat on the bench.

Only Rongguang continues to start.

But even Manchester City, who plays as a substitute, is still very powerful.

Even in the away game, they defeated Wolves with a big score of 5:2 and successfully entered the quarterfinals of the League Cup.

Since joining Manchester City, Rongguang has won the league championship, the FA Cup championship, the Champions League and the European Super Cup, and the Community Shield Cup has won three consecutive games, but the only one that has not won is the League Cup championship.

Because the status of the League Cup is now, it is not even as good as the FA Cup, so Manchester City does not attach much importance to it and never reaches the end every time.

For Rongguang, his first season at Manchester City was even worse, and Manchester City was eliminated in the first round of the League Cup.

This time, Manchester City has reached the quarter-finals in the League Cup, which is already the best performance in the League Cup in recent seasons.

However, it is still unknown whether this means that Manchester City will win in the League Cup this season.

At least from this game, the Manchester City coaching staff still did not pay much attention to Manchester City.

The reason why they can reach the quarterfinals is that their opponents are too weak is also directly related to #.

When it comes to the quarterfinals or semi-finals, Manchester City will meet stronger opponents. At that time, if the opponent goes all out in the cup and Manchester City still does not pay attention to the League Cup, it is possible to repeat the scene of being eliminated in the middle of the previous two seasons.

※※※

The Wolves were eliminated 5:2 in the League Cup, and then Manchester City's opponent in the league was also Wolves.

Ibrahimovic finally started in this game, and Kaka still did not make it to the roster.

Sun Fengyang said that it would be enough to take a break for a game, but his meaning should be to take a break for a league, not a league cup game.

So Kaka is still in the recovery period.

Manchester City without Kaka is still terrifying. They defeated Wolves 3:1 at home, and another easy victory.

Their unbeaten league is still going on, with as many as sixty-five games already.

As Rongguang said, Manchester City's ambition is not just to surpass AC Milan, they also have to create a new record that belongs entirely to their own and is difficult to surpass by future generations.

This new record is not enough to rely on one more game than AC Milan.

After finishing the match with Wolves, Manchester City left Manchester and went to St. Petersburg early to prepare for the fourth Champions League group stage there, their opponent was St. Petersburg.

Zenit, St. Petersburg, is not very strong, but their home court is terrible, especially at the end of October and early November, which is even more terrifying.

"The weather forecast says it is snowing in St. Petersburg and the temperature is already minus twenty degrees."

On the plane from Manchester to St. Petersburg, Manchester City players were also concerned about their opponent. The content of everyone's chat was related to Zenit, St. Petersburg, especially the weather was what everyone was most concerned about.

In the last Champions League group stage, Manchester City accidentally tied St. Petersburg Zenit at its home court. Logically speaking, they should have gone away with a revenge mentality. However, when they heard about this weather, many Manchester City players were full of anger and frozen into ice...

Twenty degrees below zero!

What is this concept?

Many players have never been to such a cold place in their lives!

Considering this weather, Kaka still has not been able to enter the team's 20-man Champions League roster. Although he has started training with the team, it seems that it is really nothing serious.

However, the severe cold will cause the players' muscles and ligaments to become stiff, and they are very susceptible to injury in fierce confrontation, so Benitez did not dare to take Kaka to take risks.

Kaka stayed in Manchester, which was warmer than St. Petersburg.

Rongguang has the experience of going to Russia to play away games in winter, but he went to Moscow at that time. Compared with St. Petersburg, the latitude is still lower and the temperature is higher.

He has no similar experience in the competition under minus 20 degrees Celsius.

But he didn't frown, nor did he think the game would be difficult.

To be honest, he has no idea about weather and other things, and the weather has never been a question he considered.

※※※

As soon as we got off the plane, the cold wind in St. Petersburg was wrapped in heavy snow like goose feathers and hit every Manchester City player, making many people unable to help but close their eyes, as if they were afraid that the snowflakes would be shaved into their eyes.

This has given Manchester City a warning, which has made many people feel the cruelty of nature.

When the Manchester City players thought of playing in this way, they were all desperate.

"The winter in St. Petersburg is coming earlier this year, but I think this is good news for Zenit, St. Petersburg." On TV, Russian TV stations are looking forward to the Champions League group stage.

St. Petersburg Zenit now has four points and is temporarily ranked second. The Greeks have the same points as theirs, but the Greeks have the advantage in the mutual victory and loss relationship with St. Petersburg Zenit. Therefore, if both teams still have the same score until the end of the group stage, they will have to compare the victory and loss relationship. By then, St. Petersburg Zenit will be squeezed to third and lose the qualification to advance to the knockout stage.

So the safest way is to not allow Greeks to have a chance to compete with them in the win-win situation, that is, to directly lead in points.

If you want to take the lead in points, St. Petersburg Zenit has to beat Manchester City at home.

Due to the weather, the home court of St. Petersburg Zenit is a "home court of hell" for many European teams, and they must take advantage of such opportunities.

In addition to this game with Manchester City, Zenit in St. Petersburg has two group matches left. They are home games against the Greeks. In the last group match, they will challenge Porto away.

If they can beat Manchester City, St. Petersburg Zenit will have seven points, which will be very helpful for them to qualify.

And the weather is their biggest weapon.

While Manchester City players complain about the bad weather in St. Petersburg, they hope that the snow will be heavier, the wind will be stronger, and the temperature will be lower.

I remember that Hitler's almost invincible iron-blooded army was trapped in the wind and snow of Russia. The ice and snow were Russia's armor.
