Leverkusen fans who came with the team could hear Lazio fans bragging everywhere, and they all believed that Lazio could easily defeat Leverkusen at home.

“Are we bad?”

Leverkusen fans couldn't help asking themselves.

"We played such a game in the season, and we just lost one game? We drew two games?"

"Damn, Lazio is the most awesome in Europe. Even if you are the most awesome, Leverkusen is not bad."

Leverkusen fans don't understand why their opponents are so dissatisfied with the team.

Just before this round of Champions League starts, UEFA announced the latest European team rankings, and Leverkusen ranks fourth!

European club rankings are measured only by the results of this season, mainly based on domestic leagues, including winning rate, defeat rate, goal score and conced rate; teams participating in the European Champions League and League Cup will receive additional extra points.

Lazio defeated Verona 4-0 in the Italian League One Sunday and beat Dynamo Kiev in the European Champions League 4-0 last Wednesday, with the results of these matches continuing to rank first in the announced European football club rankings.

Although Leverkusen defeated Maribo in the Champions League, he lost 1:3 to Wolfsburg in the league and fell one place in the European rankings, and they were originally ranked third.

The latest top 20 European clubs:

1 Lazio Italy 109.59

2 Wanderers Scotland 93.32

3Eindhoven Netherlands 90.64

4 Leverkusen Germany 90.07

5ac Milan Italy 93.74

6Rome Italy 87.06

7 Barcelona Spain 86.40

8 Bayern Munich Germany 85.32

9 Olympiacos Greece 84.62

10 Juventus Italy 84.31

11 Manchester United England 82.19

12 Anderlecht Belgium 81.11

13 Moscow Spartak Russia 79.55

14 Dortmund Germany 78.87

15 Zaragoza Spain 78.46

16 Monaco France 78.26

17 Leverkusen Germany 77.75

18 Celtic Scotland 77.19

19 Bucharest Dynamo Romania 76.90

20 Prague Sparta Czech Republic 76.70

It can be seen that Leverkusen has strong competitiveness throughout Europe. The big reason why the Glasgow Rangers of the Scottish Premier League and Eindhoven of the Eredivisie rank first is because their league competitiveness is not strong, otherwise Leverkusen could be second.

Of course, Lazio's current lineup is among the best in Europe. Their strength is indeed very perverted, but this does not mean that Leverkusen is very weak.

The fans walked into the Rome Olympic Stadium two hours in advance, but were deeply shocked by the stadium.

"So big!"

The sight of it was completely beyond their imagination.

For the first time in my life, I saw a stadium that can accommodate 105,000 fans. How can I not be shocked? I can’t find such a large stadium in Germany, and even the West* Stadium in Dortmund is not that big.

The key is that there are too many Lazio fans on the scene.

Buzz buzz,

All of them are blue Lazio fans, and many shirtless fans. They sit in the front row, holding portraits of many players. Mancini, Saras, and Veron have long conquered the Blue Eagles fans.

Duang,

Duang,

Duang,

The stadium was filled with passionate sounds, as if the roaring waves were slamming the coast. Leverkusen fans could only sit obediently in their small stands, and basically did not dare to make any sound.

self-abasement.

Really a bit inferior.

Never seen such a big scene.

In the player channel, players from both sides came out one after another.

On Lazio, Maceginia, Negro, Mikhainovic, Fediodo, Pancarro, Almeida, Stankovic, Veron, Nedved, Mancini, and Salas all made their appearances.

Leverkusen, Matisek, Kovac, Novotney, Lucio, Grasco, Emerson, Ze Roberto, Barak, Beinrich, Kirsten, and Zheng Zhi!

When he saw Zheng Zhi the last one running out, a huge uproar immediately sounded at the scene.

"Water?"

"Didn't this guy not appearing due to injury?"

"Why is he in the lineup?"

"Ah, damn German, when did he become so cunning?"

Lazio fans were confused. I remember that the Germans were very forbidden and would not be so scheming, but today Waller obviously made them do it.

In fact, Eriksen's face was so dark that it could not be darker a few minutes ago. Because he felt that there was any change, he did not investigate Leverkusen's lineup again, and he had not even looked at the previous roster again.

When he saw Zheng Zhi's figure in the player passage, he was shocked.

I was definitely deceived by Waller!

It's paralyzing, Zheng Zhi, but his favorite player Simeone is on the bench, and Favalli and captain Nesta are not, and even Mancini is on the striker, not Boksic.

Now, there is no time to adjust, so I can only fight with the current 11 people...

I was careless for a moment and regretted it.

However, Erikson still readjusted his emotions and walked to the coaching seat.

So what?

Lazio is the strongest. Even if it is not the strongest main lineup, Leverkusen's condition is so bad that he will definitely be able to take them at home!

On the Italian Sky TV station, Inter Milan celebrity Bergomi said bluntly: "Eriksen was deceived, and the Swedes will regret discharging this lineup now. Voral fired smoke bombs, and his core has recovered from injury."

"I don't think Lazio can win at home."

"The climax is after the low point, and Leverkusen's performance will be beyond their expectations."

But his partner Malochi shook his head, "A Chinese can't change anything."

"It's possible at the beginning of the season."

"But now Lazio is stable and there will be no problems at home."

"Lazio has Veron, that's enough."

"Haha, maybe, but you have to know that he is the real core of this team, just like Peron to Lazio, like Inter Milan, with Ronaldo and Vieri in front, that would be very different!" Bergomi shook his head, "They lined up a 451 formation today, and Lazio may not be able to rush in with a typical defensive counterattack."

"Maybe, the Chinese are going on the battlefield with injuries, so that's a barely force."

"Walle is a little anxious?"

...

...

A strange stadium, a familiar figure,

This will be a dream game! Zheng Zhi was deeply sucking the air of the Roman Olympics and looking forward to this game.

After three games resting, he was finally able to stand on the court again and continue to compete with the great teams and the greatest players of this era.

Although Nesta is missing, Favalli is missing, and Simeone is missing.

Just now, Bellon greeted Zheng Zhi and asked Zheng Zhi if he was injured? As a result, Zheng Zhi told him directly that this was lying to them, and Bellon laughed. But Barack was a little disappointed. Simeone didn't have it today tonight. He wanted to continue playing with Simeone. In the first round of the group stage, Simeone taught Barack how to play football, but today Simeone sat on the bench. He wanted to ask Barack to play football today...

bring it on……

Beep,

The battle begins! Lazio takes the lead in kicking off.

Veteran Mancini gently knocked the ball, and Salas immediately gave the ball to Perron. Perron divided the ball from the left, and the blonde Nedved accelerated and went down the bottom immediately on the left!

Kovac chased him all the way to the bottom line and was unbearable Nedved. When near the bottom line, Kovac felt that he had exhausted all his strength, but Nedved hit it with a powerful punch, easily got rid of his entanglement, then sent a backward triangle pass with his right foot, and then immediately cut into the penalty area, while Kovac was still one step late.

Although Beron, who followed up in the middle, protected the ball under Zheng Zhi's entanglement, he could not break through Zheng Zhi head-on, so he could only pass the ball to the right. Stankovic took advantage of the opportunity and took advantage of Emerson's failure to block it as soon as possible and directly hit the goal with his left foot!
