Chapter 684 Ligue 1 Wins 8 Rounds Ahead of Schedule
At 20:45 on the evening of March 12, with the whistle of the referee, the second round of the 2013/2014 UEFA Champions League 1/8 final match between Paris Saint-Germain and Bayer Leverkusen officially began.
A small loss in the first leg and an away goal.
According to historical statistics, in this case, the home team has a higher probability of advancing than the visiting team after returning to the home court in the second round.
After all, they only need a 1-0 to solve the problem.
However, this is only a probability, and the probability is only in the 50s and 40s, the gap is not very big.
Leverkusen leads the total score. As long as there is an away draw, they can also eliminate Paris Saint-Germain and advance to the quarterfinals.
This is why Blanco made a large-scale rotation in the last round of the league.
Because that league game can be lost, but this Champions League game can't be evened.
The owner of the Middle East spent 150 million to introduce Lu Wenbin, not for the Ligue 1 championship that Paris won last season.
The only goal of Paris this season is to win the Champions League!
Of course, it would be even better if we could win the Triple Crown.
Anyway, this Champions League game cannot be lost.
The weather was fine, no rain.
After the start of the game, Leverkusen still made a full-court press like the previous game.
However, today's Paris Saint-Germain is no longer the Paris Saint-Germain of the previous game.
There is no rain, the turf environment of the stadium is good, and it is their own home court, and there are cheers from the home team fans. Paris Saint-Germain used their skilled technical advantages to completely stun Leverkusen.
Especially Lu Wenbin, who can pass and shoot suddenly, is versatile in offense and defense, and his luck is not as unlucky as in the first round.
So, in the 9th minute of the opening, Lu Wenbin broke Leverkusen's goal with a low shot in the penalty area after passing two people in a row.
Paris Saint-Germain led 1-0 and tied 2-2 after two legs, but Paris Saint-Germain had an away goal, while Leverkusen did not.
If the game ends with this score,
Leverkusen will be eliminated with the disadvantage of fewer away goals.
The situation was reversed at once, which was not good for Leverkusen.
Leverkusen had to step up their attack and try to score goals to reverse the situation.
But Paris Saint-Germain, whose skills, tactics and luck have returned to normal, is really not something Leverkusen can resist.
In the 28th minute, Lu Wenbin launched an attack. Zlatan Ibrahimovic made a cross from the left side of the penalty area and entered the penalty area. Lavezzi shot the ball and scored. Paris led Leverkusen 2-0 .
In the 41st minute, full-back Maxwell suddenly stepped forward for an assist and made a diagonal pass at a 45-degree angle. Lu Wenbin rushed into the penalty area and dived to the top, heading the ball into the goal.
Paris Saint-Germain led 3-0 in the second leg and 4-2 in the two legs, and Leverkusen failed to score a single goal until the end of the first half.
In the second half, Paris Saint-Germain continued to press against Leverkusen and scored two more goals in the second half.
As for Leverkusen, they only got back a point with a free kick in the 74th minute, but in the end they lost to Paris 1-5 in two rounds and were eliminated with a total score of 3-6 in two rounds.
Paris Saint-Germain reversed Leverkusen and advanced to the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
This is the normal script. The victory of Leverkusen in the first round was just luck under various chances and coincidences.
With the end of the Champions League 1/8 finals, the 2013/2014 season's Champions League quarterfinals are all released, namely Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Manchester United, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, Chelsea.
These eight teams are all the first in the eight groups in the group stage. This is the first time since the UEFA Champions League was restructured in ten years.
The top eight teams are all teams from the five major leagues, but La Liga occupies three seats, which shows its strength. Serie A was completely annihilated, and the Serie A league, which was originally known as the Little World Cup, completely declined.
The draw for the Champions League quarter-finals is March 21, before Paris Saint-Germain had to play a league game.
On March 16, in the 29th round of Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain played against Saint-Etienne at home.
After 90 minutes, the score was 4-0 on the big screens, and Paris Saint-Germain scored another home victory, extending their unbeaten run across seasons and their winning streak this season.
After this round, Paris Saint-Germain's points reached 87 points, while the second-placed Monaco only had 62 points, and Paris led Monaco by a full 25 points.
With a total of 38 rounds of Ligue 1 and 9 rounds left, Paris is close to winning the championship early.
Win another game, and the Grand Paris points will reach 90 points.
Even if Monaco continues to win, it will only have 65 points. Paris will lead by 25 points with 8 league rounds left, and will win the championship eight rounds ahead of schedule.
Therefore, on the night of March 21, in the 30th round of Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain played away against Lorient, and the French Football Association brought the championship trophy to the scene.
However, during the day, UEFA first drew for the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
This time the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals draw will not set seed teams, and teams from the same country do not need to avoid.
The final result is that Barcelona VS Atletico Madrid staged a La Liga civil war, Dortmund encountered Real Madrid, Manchester United VS Bayern Munich.
Paris Saint-Germain got Chelsea. It's good luck. It's better than meeting Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern, Manchester United and the like.
After the draw is over, Paris will play away against Lorient in the evening.
In this game that is related to whether Paris can win the championship in advance, Paris Saint-Germain, who played the main force, continued the state of the previous game and easily controlled the game.
In the 14th minute, Lu Wenbin scored the first goal for Paris Saint-Germain with a direct shot from a zero-degree corner kick, giving Paris a 1-0 lead away.
In the 35th minute, Lu Wenbin split the side, Lavezzi made a pass from the bottom, and Ibrahimovic sent the ball into the opponent's goal with a wonderful scorpion tail swing in the penalty area.
In the 43rd minute, Lu Wenbin scored twice and scored Paris' third goal.
In the 68th minute of the second half, Lu Wenbin scored another goal, locking the score at 4-0, and Paris won the away game 4-0.
The game is not far from over, the substitute players on the sidelines and the Parisian fans in the stands have already begun to celebrate non-stop.
Although this is the first game of the 30th round, the match in Monaco will not even be played until tomorrow.
But no matter what the second-placed Monaco does, Paris, which has won 30 consecutive league rounds this season, has reached 90 points, and has won the Ligue 1 championship in the 2013/2014 season eight rounds ahead of schedule.
Amidst the cheers of thousands of Paris fans at the scene, Paris Saint-Germain won the Ligue 1 championship trophy this season eight rounds ahead of schedule.
This is the season that Ligue 1 and even all European leagues have won the most rounds in advance. Lu Wenbin led Paris to create an appalling record.
