In the second round of the Champions League group stage, Real Madrid beat Ukraine's Dynamo Kyiv at home, while Barcelona managed a difficult draw on the road, and naturally became the object of ridicule in the capital's newspapers.
Of course, news from Valencia is also indispensable at this time.
Because tonight, Valencia will also welcome Serie A runner-up Roma at their home court.
Aspen newspaper chose a very appropriate theme for this game: Wolf King vs.
Bat King The photo in the background is Wolf King Totti, and the Bat King is Valencia’s new king Aiello.
“Last night ended all eight matches in the second round of the Champions League.
The La Liga team achieved an unbeaten record with one win and one draw.
As the defending champion of La Liga, Valencia will most likely usher in the Champions League at its home court.
Two consecutive victories in the group stage.
In last Thursday's league top battle, they defeated last season's European champion Barcelona away.
Among them, Ai personally scored his fourth hat trick against Barcelona.
His excellent form will definitely make him Be the key player tonight."
"At the same time, the Roma team that ended the fourth round of Serie A is also in very good condition.
They also beat the home team with four goals in the away game.
In this crucial Champions League group stage, it will definitely bring them a lot of confidence.
Among them Prince Totti of Rome has also maintained a good competitive state recently.
From another aspect, this game may be a direct dialogue between the aces of the two teams.
Who performs better?
So, which team?
will win this game.”
Indeed, the victory of this game really depends on which team's key player performs better.
However, regarding the odds of this game, the three major European bookmakers are still very optimistic about Valencia playing at home, and they also have Aiello, David Villa and Ballack who are in good form at home, and they are more likely to win. .
In the regular press conference before the game, Roma's bald coach Spalletti fully expressed his confidence in winning this game.
As the coach who has adjusted Roma in the most chaotic period to the current second place in the league, Coaches naturally have their own strengths.
He used Totti as the core of the team's offense, but did not set up a forward.
The tactics he adopted were similar to those of Valencia during the Benitez era.
The forward-less tactics 460.
But the Roma style coached by Spalletti is more aggressive.
With the Roma team emblem, everyone calls his tactics a wolf pack tactic, which is a group of physical men in the midfield headed by Perrotta.
The ability to stop running back and cut inside on both sides, and on the defensive end, he also spares no effort in pressing high positions.
"Although it is an away game, we will not retreat at halftime.
On the contrary, we will attack the home team Valencia.
I firmly believe that it will be us, Roma, who win this game."
When it was the turn of Valencia coach Flores, the reporter who conducted the interview naturally told Flores what Spalletti had said before.
The seven consecutive victories in all competitions this season also made Flores' self-confidence burst.
He did not take the words of Roma coach Luciano Spalletti to heart, but mentioned the team's advantages, "Roma's wolf tactics are not It’s not scary, because we are a Spanish team and our passing and control ability is extraordinary.
If they want to deal with us with high-position pressing without any effort, then we can only say sorry, this way is not possible.”
Flores's domineering response was unanimously recognized by the Spanish media.
Regardless of the result, he must at least overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum before the game.
Home team locker room.
Flores was seizing the last moment to prepare the team, "Roma is not an easy team to deal with.
They have a very strong midfield with Totti and De Rossi as the core.
The team is not as easy as it seems on the surface.
They performed very well on the defensive end.
The two goals they conceded in all competitions in the new season just verified their power in defense.

However, we have an omnipotent Ai.
The game should be much easier.”
Having said this, Flores paused and looked at the team's goal-scoring fiend Aiello.
Ai Luo had not been stared at by his teammates like this once or twice, so he just shrugged and said nothing.
"I hope everyone will not be fooled by our seven-game winning streak in all competitions.
On the contrary, we should also forget the previous big victory at the Nou Camp.
Winning this victory is our goal.
Brothers, let us fight without blood.
Let’s get this victory.”
After finishing speaking, Flores was relieved to see the players who were full of fighting spirit.
In the pre-match press conference, he put off smoke bombs, giving people the illusion of being arrogant, but if the Roma team in this game If they are careless because of this, losing will be their only result.
For this Champions League group match, the Mestalla Stadium was packed.
As Aiello's performance becomes more and more abnormal and stable, his huge posters, banners and subtitles supporting him can be easily seen in the surrounding stands.
He is relatively familiar with this Roma team.
He has studied this Roma team that is good at wolf tactics in the past and knows the weaknesses of this team.
They can beat Inter Milan 6:2 at home, but they will also Losing to Manchester United 1:7 at Old Trafford, the team's stability is Roma's biggest problem.
Also, as long as Totti, who is good at passing fatal passes, is defended, the task can basically be completed.
So Aiello specially said a few words to Baraja when he was in the player tunnel.
The game lasted for more than ten minutes, and Ai Luo finally realized the power of this team's wolf-pack tactics.
Running without hesitation put him in a situation where he would always be in a situation where he would beat more with less when he got the ball.
In this game, Spalletti and other head coaches used similar tactics to deal with Aiello.
They sent a professional bodyguard to accompany Aiello at all times, whether with or without the ball.
At the same time, there was also an ambush near him. to two players.
This kind of defense that consumes a lot of manpower still has quite a few flaws, because too many people are defending Aiello, which will inevitably lead to negligence in defense by other players.
Fortunately, Roma's midfielders and frontcourt players are all full of physical strength.
They can barely cope with Valencia's passing and control coordination.
However, the local commentator in Italy still raised the problem that Roma will face, "Although in these ten minutes, the Roma team has effectively controlled Valencia's strongest attack point, if this kind of running without hesitation of physical strength If this continues, physical fitness in the second half will most likely be a very serious problem.
Whether Spalletti’s use of physical strength to win this game is worth it or not is debatable.”
The Roma team watched Aiello very closely, but they did not let him take it easy.
Instead, they kept running in and out, just like the last game against Barcelona.
Therefore, Flores was relieved.
What he was worried about before was not the team's offensive problem or defensive problem, but whether Aiello would lose himself because of becoming a hero of this city, but it turned out that , his worries were unnecessary, Ai Luo did not stop squandering opportunities just because he became famous. promising future This is what Flores said about him He looked at the time on the big screen and felt that it was almost time.
He put his fists together, stretched out only two little fingers, put them into his mouth, and then blew hard, and there was a loud sound.
Then, Alberda looked at When he came over, he shouted loudly: "Start moving forward" Alberda nodded, indicating that he understood, and then said a few words to Ai Luo, David Villa and Ballack respectively at the dead ball opportunity.
Coincidentally, this scene was captured by the director of the Mestalla Stadium, and when Canizares was preparing to take the goal kick, he took advantage of the spare time to play it.
Immediately, it aroused speculation among the commentators from various countries in the studio.
"Enrique Flores must have made temporary arrangements for the players on the field, otherwise Albelda would definitely not have explained to the offensive players one by one.
Judging from the process of the past 20 minutes, Valencia, who played at home, was a little quieter, more like testing Roma, but this guess still needs to wait for time to be verified. " Sky TV's leading commentator Andy Gray explained based on his own commentary experience.
"In the first twenty minutes, the home team Valencia did not take advantage of their home court to play the kind of offensive football we wanted to see, but chose to advance layer by layer with a slightly safer approach.
This is in line with their offensive philosophy.
It doesn’t quite fit.
The shot just now may be that Flores wants to make some changes to the offense and defense on the court.”
"Are we finally going to make changes?
To be honest, these 20 minutes have been the most boring game since I broadcast the Valencia game in the new season.
There is no sharp breakthrough and no eye-catching forward penetration. , it can only make people watch the delivery full of sleepiness, let me wait and see.”

After Ai Luo heard the instructions from team deputy Alberda, he grinned at David Pizarro, who was responsible for marking him in this game.
He finally had to let go of his hands and feet to kick, otherwise he would really die of boredom.
Being able to make a breakthrough but pretending not to have the confidence to make a breakthrough is like a rich man who has to pretend to have no money in front of the person he likes, and in front of someone who underestimates the enemy.
It is really uncomfortable.
The person who defended Aiello in this game was Chilean international David Pizarro.
This man is short in stature, but very strong.
Every time Aiello gets the ball, he will always stick to him immediately and prevent him from getting the ball comfortably. .
Originally, according to Aiello's temper, he would definitely be passed over, but before the game, head coach Flores had other arrangements, especially when it came to the progress of the game, asking him to try not to make a breakthrough individually, but to wait for the opportunity.
Kill with one hit A minute later, Aiello got the ball on the left and David Pizarro rushed up at the first opportunity.
Come on, Chinese David Pizarro has been full of confidence in these more than 20 minutes, and the so-called La Liga extraordinary king is nothing more than that.
However, in less than half a second, David Pizarro was stunned.
How did he get there?
s: There may only be two updates today.
The contract at the stall at home has expired and I have to move things
