Chapter 122 Heaven and Hell

After losing to Sampdoria, they immediately won by a big score against Reggina, which proved that this time the loss was just a coincidence, and Lazio was just a little bit unlucky.

This defeat will have no repercussions.

The same is true.

The next Champions League group stage fourth game.

Lazio defeated Olympiacos 3:1 at home.

In the tenth round of the league, Lazio beat Empoli 3-0 away.

In the eleventh round of the league, Lazio broke out again, beating Udinese 5-0 at home!

In the twelfth round, Lazio once again scored a big score, beating Messina 4:1 away.

Lazio's state during this period can be described as terrifying.

They beat Regina 4:1, Olympiacos 3:1, Empoli 3:0, Udinese 5:0, and Messina 4:1. Nineteen goals in five games.

In the past twelve league rounds, Lazio has scored 31 goals in the league, which is the team with the most goals in Serie A.

In the Champions League group stage, they also scored 13 goals and conceded only one goal. Both attacking power and defense are among the top in Europe.

Data is boring, but data doesn't lie.

With such data, it is hard to imagine that this is a team that was only reassembled this summer.

"...What magic did Chang cast on Lazio? Make this team completely different from what we thought it was?"

"Our reporters followed Lazio's performance and they didn't look like a team that had played together for a few months..."

"...the results of the urine test proved that the Lazio players did not take any banned drugs and their results were authentic. Then the question arises, is it normal for such a result to happen to Lazio? I don't mean to belittle them, I just feel weird..."

"The offensive power is the best in Europe. This Lazio has surprised the whole of Europe. There are many journalists flocking to Lazio's Formello training base, wanting to find out the secret of Lazio's success... If you want me to say, what's the good of it Visiting? The reason why they can achieve such results is very simple, and there is only one reason, that is, their head coach is Chang! Think about Getafe,

Thinking about Valencia, as long as it is the team that Chang coaches, isn't it all so surprising? "

Media across the continent focused on Lazio's rise.

Although Rome is fourth. The results are not bad, but in the light of Lazio, Spalletti's Rome is not worth mentioning.

※※※

On November 22, it was the penultimate round of the Champions League group stage, and Lazio had to go away to play Shakhtar Donetsk.

It's snowing heavily in Ukraine at the end of November.

In order to avoid injury to the main players. Changsheng did not let those main players go to Donetsk in the ice and snow.

Anyway, his team qualified early after the last Champions League group match.

The only suspense now is the first place in the group, but Chang Sheng does not think that Valencia, who is five points behind him, can turn the tables.

So both he and the team can face this Eastern European away trip with a relaxed mind.

Even if they lose the game, it doesn't matter.

In the end, they drew 1:1 with Shakhtar Donetsk in the away game.

Valencia beat Olympiacos 2-0 at home.

With the last round of the group stage remaining, Lazio leads Valencia by three points.

If Valencia can defeat Lazio in the final round, the relationship between the two sides will be even, depending on the goal difference when the two sides play against each other.

However, it is difficult for Valencia to take advantage of this aspect.

On the road, ever-victorious Lazio scored four goals against Valencia.

Then go back to your home field. Can Lazio still lose five goals to Valencia?

Almost impossible.

So in fact, the first and second teams of this group have been decided, namely Lazio and Valencia.

As for the last round of the group stage, it has lost the significance of the results.

No matter what the commission is, it will not affect the qualifying of these two teams.

But the game will still be intense. will still be noticed.

Because this is a game between Lazio and Valencia, because of the grievances between Chang Sheng and Valencia.

In European football, there will always be such games to attract people's attention.

Chang Sheng once again became the protagonist on the stage.

Lazio and Valencia are on December 5th, two weeks away.

before that. There are two Serie A matches.

They are Lazio vs. Ascoli at home and Livorno away.

Playing Ascoli at home, Lazio won 3:1. In the away game against Livorno, Lazio drew 2:2. Because of the next game against Valencia, Chang Sheng was not the main force, and the players were a little slack.

The draw saw Lazio fall from first place in the league to second place.

The first place in the league is occupied by Inter Milan with 36 points.

Because Lazio lost to Sampdoria before, now in Serie A, only Inter Milan has not lost.

Inter Milan has strengthened after getting Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Vieira, but the most important thing is that most of the former main competitors are sluggish.

Roma got off to a good start but lacked stamina.

Now it seems that only Lazio can compete with Inter Milan.

Lazio competed with Juventus last season, but this season their opponent has been replaced by Inter Milan.

※※※

The game between Lazio and Valencia is a game of European attention.

Before this game, Flores changed his previous arrogance and said very low-key that they are not here to compete for the first place in the group.

"There is no suspense for the first place in the group. Although the media said that it is theoretically possible...but that only exists in theory. We came to Rome with a relaxed mind for this game..." Flores said in the game Said so in the previous press conference.

And he really did.

In this game, he replaced many main players and gave many young players opportunities.

As for Sorel? He didn't come to Rome at all. The reporters asked the general manager of the club, Caboni, and Caboni's answer was: "Mr. Chairman has some personal matters to deal with."

What private matter?

Carbone said nothing.

But everyone can guess.

Soler just didn't want to come to Rome to be humiliated again.

He already had a premonition of the outcome of this game.

Even if Flores is on the full lineup, it won't change the result in the end.

Valencia will definitely lose to Lazio.

Even because he was watching the game from the sidelines, maybe Lazio would feel like he had a chicken blood. Score more goals and humiliate yourself.

So Soler simply didn't come, he wouldn't give Chang Sheng the chance to continue humiliating himself on the spot.

Sure enough, Soler didn't come, Flores gave in again, and Lazio was much gentler in this game.

In the end, Lazio beat Valencia 2-0 at home.

Won the first place in the group with an unbeaten record and advanced to the top sixteen.

When many teams are working hard to get out of the group, the winning teams never seem to have to worry about not getting out of the group.

※※※

After qualifying for the UEFA Champions League group stage, UEFA conducted a round of sixteen draw ceremony.

The first team in the group is away first.

Lazio is the first team in the group. The second Celtics in Group F were drawn.

This is a good sign, because the Celtics are not a very strong team.

After the draw, Chang Sheng ignored the Champions League. For him, the league is more important. To know. His goal this season is the league championship that time.

※※※

Next in the league, Lazio will continue to encounter strong opponents.

In the league, before Christmas, Lazio has to face Fiorentina, Roma, Inter Milan and Parma.

If there is no accident, the match against Inter Milan will be a key battle to determine who is the champion during the winter break.

Now Lazio is temporarily behind Inter Milan by one point.

The competition between the two sides was very fierce.

Under the leadership of Prandelli, Florence also performed very well. At present, after the 14th round of the league, they are ranked fifth with 23 points.

Roma is the team that has improved the most this season. Under the leadership of Spalletti, they achieved ten wins, two draws and two losses, ranking third with 32 points.

Among them, only Parma's performance is almost the same, and now it only has nine points, ranking second from the bottom.

Fifteenth round. Lazio challenged Fiorentina away.

The two sides fought fiercely for 90 minutes in this game, and finally Lazio lost 1:2.

Lost their second game of the season.

On the other hand, Inter Milan beat Empoli 3-0 in the away game, and the point difference between the two sides was widened to four points.

All of a sudden, there was thunderous cheers in the media.

Lazio's loss can be described as delightful.

In fact, the last time Lazio lost to Sampdoria, there was no such reaction. Although it was Lazio's first defeat of the season.

Because even if Lazio lost to Sampdoria at that time, Lazio was still number one in the league. There's really nothing dark about it. If Lazio loses a game, it will be black. It's too dark and brainless.

But this time, things are different.

Lazio lost the ball, and the gap with the league's No. 1 Inter Milan is getting bigger and bigger.

This fact emboldens those who think about Changsheng and Lazio, and makes them feel that the time is ripe, and they can finally speak out what they are holding back.

So the media is full of all kinds of ridicule and sarcasm.

This scene is really dizzying.

The situation changed so fast that they hadn't reacted yet.

The first half of the chapter was still saying that Lazio was already invincible in the world. In the second half, Lazio suddenly suffered two consecutive rounds of invincibility.

The first half is heaven, the second half is hell.

After the loss, the media was full of voices mocking Changsheng and Lazio.

It seems that the end of the world for Lazio is coming... (to be continued)
