After returning to the European arena from China, the Chinese players' journey to Europe continues.
In addition to working hard for their respective leagues, for several Chinese players, the Champions League is their biggest dream.
In early April, the Champions League quarter-finals arrived as scheduled, and several strong dialogues were still exciting.
Valencia's game against Dortmund was Star Flavor's weakest game, but despite this, the excitement of the two rounds was not inferior to him.
In the first game, the two teams tied 2 to 2. Both Valencia goals were scored by midfielder Gago. The old Real Madrid player is in excellent condition this season.
On Dortmund's side, Lewandowski performed well, and he also responded to his opponent with two goals.
The second round was equally exciting, with Valencia taking the lead and scoring two more goals at the Vesterstadion to shut down Dortmund.
However, in the second half, Dortmund ushered in a big explosion.
Gotze, Lewandowski and Gundogan each provided an assist. The talented star Royce scored three goals and dazzled West with a hat trick!
3 to 2! Dortmund won this extremely difficult game! They finally advanced to the semi-finals with a total score of 5-4!
Although Valencia ended up in the quarterfinals, their performance still won the respect of the world.
Also playing a close game was the game between Barcelona and Paris.
If we only look at the paper strength and European war background, Barcelona has obvious advantages, but they have been lagging behind Deportivo in the league this season. They are unable to fight on multiple fronts and can only rotate frequently and cannot field the strongest lineup in theory.
Paris has established its domestic lead early and is just around the corner to win the championship. With the addition of Ibrahimovic, Thiago Silva, Lucas Jr., Lavezzi and other strong players, they will be no different when facing Barcelona. Give more.
In the first round, Ibrahimovic, who returned to Camp Nou, vented his dissatisfaction on the court after being abandoned by Barcelona.
Although Guardiola is no longer the one he hates most on the coaching bench, Ibrahimovic will get angry whenever he sees Barcelona's jersey.
Less than ten minutes into the game, Ibrahimovic received the ball outside the penalty area, turned around and shot into the net!
1 to 0! Da Feng opened the record first!
But Barcelona soon responded with goals.
In the following time, Messi and Villa both scored, helping the team lead the score 2-1.
After the start of the second half, Paris' biggest disadvantage became apparent.
Compared with Barcelona, Paris has strong forwards and solid defenders, but their midfield strength is far inferior to Barcelona.
The entire second half became Barcelona's time. Habaib's top-notch control made Paris very passive. Xavi's wonderful long-range shot and Iniesta's forward burst helped the team score two more goals.
In the end, the result of this game was fixed at 4-1, and Barcelona won a big victory at home!
With a three-goal lead, Barcelona headed to the Parc des Princes a few days later, preparing to end Paris' European campaign this season.
But what they didn't expect was that they encountered Paris' fierce counterattack at home!
At the end of the 45 minutes of the first half, almost all Barcelona players couldn't believe it.
3 to 0! Paris equalized the total score!
All the goals were scored by the same person - Ibrahimovic!
He performed a "perfect hat trick" with his left foot, right foot and header in the first half, helping Paris score 3-0 at halftime!
Not only is the total score now 4-4, but Paris also has an away goal!
Barcelona is in danger now!
Listening to the cheers at the Parc des Princes in Paris, Ibrahimovic enjoyed every moment of the moment.
Recalling his unpleasant experience in Barcelona and looking at it now, Ibrahimovic feels that coming to Paris was the right choice.
After returning to the locker room, unlike the laughter in the direction of Paris, there was a rare silence in the Barcelona locker room.
After a long time, Vilanova spoke slowly: "Guys, I have news to tell you. After the end of this season, I will resign as Barcelona coach."
Hearing Vilanova's words, the Barcelona players felt like they were pinched in their hearts.
Although everyone thought about this matter, after all, everyone knew Vilanova's physical condition, but they still felt sad when they heard the coach's official announcement.
Although Vilanova has only been the coach of Barcelona for one season, he has served at the Barcelona club for many years, especially as the coach of the Barcelona B team since 2004, and has a very good relationship with many current Barcelona players.
Vilanova looked at everyone, his voice was smooth and soft, and he didn't seem to be a backward coach.
"After the season ends, I will be undergoing cancer treatment for a period of time. Whether I can return to the court is still unknown. Oh no, it is probably unknown how long I will live."
Iniesta on the side had tears in his eyes: "Coach, you will be fine!"
Vilanova smiled slightly and looked at Xiaobai indifferently: "Man, no one in this world has life or death. I am already very bearish. I just hope that in my last Barcelona season, I can bring this team to me." Favorite team something different, like the Champions League, the league."
"There are still 45 minutes left. It depends on everyone if we go home and advance to the semi-finals. I think there is no problem with our tactics, but we were too careless, so we were scored consecutively by Paris. In other words, you have won enough Champions League titles and you no longer have the enthusiasm to compete for the title?"
"Coach, our enthusiasm for the championship will never weaken!" Messi stood up. Although he was not tall, when he looked at his teammates, he looked very tall.
"Guys, we didn't do well enough in the first half, and I have a big reason for it. In the second half, I hope everyone can cheer up and treat Paris as an opponent of the level of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid! Go all out, Send off the coach with a Triple Crown!"
With the belief that they must win, Barcelona rushed to the court with one heart and one mind.
In the second half, Paris was not able to gain a firm foothold, and Messi staged a good show of riding alone. His shot passed three people in a row and slid out of the goal post, just a hair away from scoring.
A few minutes later, Xavi and Iniesta cooperated, and after the two went one-two, when Messi was closely guarded by the Paris defender, Xavi hit a powerful long-range shot!
The ball hit the net!
3 to 1! Barcelona pulled a goal back!
And ten minutes later, this time it was Iniesta's sudden shot from the penalty area line, and the ball hit the turf and hit the net quickly!
3 to 2! Barcelona scores another away goal!
In the 74th minute of the game, Messi finally took advantage of a direct free kick and hit a very exciting curve ball. The ball went straight into the dead center of the goal!
3 to 3! Barcelona equalized the score!
Although Ibrahimovic scored another goal later, performed a big four, and once again overtook the score, the score of 4 to 3 was still not enough to advance.
When the referee's whistle sounded, Barcelona's total score was 7 to 5. They eliminated Paris Saint-Germain and took the lead in reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League!
