Decline of the West. 5 disappointment of the group stage of the Champions League – Eurosport.com RU

UPDATED: Just

Drinking game Akinfeev

         The match against the “Bavaria” was the goalkeeper for the 27th row, in which he had not saved CSKA from conceding a goal. But the game itself Igor can hardly make a claim. Each group stage match he did on saves 4.3, 1.8 of them were out of the box. This statistic is two times better than last season, and it is from this becomes anxious.
       

Igor Akinfeev, “CSKA» – Imago

         
           Akinfeev – the most stable player of the championship of Russia and not only among the goalkeepers. Who climbs the career of Igor its peak, and its main partners on defense, Ignashevich Berezutski and no longer under the condition to match his own goalkeeper. In this Champions League teammates collected the ball at 1.3 times per game, and made only one interception – attack opponents ended with a shot on goal Akinfeev more often than he proved the senselessness of the campaign “Stop the mat.” Special same sadness is the fact that adequate replacement pair tsentrbekov CSKA not.
       



Return “Liverpool»

         Liverpool in the Premier League were not in the top three since 2009, but with the arrival of Irish Rogers Liverpool schooner ceased to gurgle and almost swam to the title. Even parting with Suarez, a waste of money on a bright but immature young people (plus Balotelli and Lambert) and drop old Gerrard did not give reason to doubt that the “red” spoil the mood “Real”, asked a pepper “Basel” and eat “Ludogorets “together with shoes. In reality it was in a dream hangover – the defeat and a draw with the “Basel”, tortured victory plus clumsy draw with “Ludogortsem” separation from “Real” to “Anfield”.

         It is best to speak Liverpool in the Champions League T-shirts characterizes exchange between Balotelli and Pepe during a break in the return match with “Real”. Rogers did not like, but a guide to punish Mario fine. In this case, it was possible to act consistently and fine coach “red”: firing on such an important match duplicates of, he did just as well as the Italian striker. Only Brendan surrendered before kick-off, and Balotelli during the break.
       

         The only bright spot in the game Merseyside were last ten minutes of the final game of the group stage against “Basel” Sterling showed such speed, as if his blood boil, Henderson suddenly pretended to be a young Gerrard, Steven and he played like him again 25. But ten minutes of brilliant six games is not enough.
       

         Not getting to his feet after the transfer campaign, infected tactical impotence “Arsenal”, having lost the last hope in the face of a broken Sturridge, “Liverpool” looks a major disappointment in 2014.
       

         Pitertsy before the next Champions League players have bought the name, but once again flew past the cashier with tickets to the playoffs. Out of the tournament “blue-white-blue” knocked modest “Monaco”.
       

         And how nice it all began. Victory over the “Benfica” in the first round was so easy: players flew from the Portuguese, as ether from banks, goals were solid, Garay in protection – reliable and Garcia integrated into a monolithic midfield. It seemed, well, here it is, the same “Zenith”, which has long wanted to see who will stand on a par with the best clubs in the best tournaments. In the Premier League Petrograders catapulted into Cosmo, leaving CSKA and company to swallow the dust on the ground, and the like as they could focus their efforts on the Champions League.

         But “Monaco” became “Zenith” impassable barrier, not allowing himself to score for 180 minutes, and the “Bayer” does knocked out of the saddle in the dirt, shipped four goals to one zenitovsky. And like usual thing, see “Zenith” departing in the Europa League, but after a promising start still hurt.
       

         
            “If you play often – you get tired. Thank RAF. ” As “Zenith” is justified for the failure in the Champions League
         
       



«Roma»

         The disappointment of the game “Giallorossi” similar to the feeling that comes from watching games “Zenith”. Overconfidence evrokampanii start against CSKA , bouncy draw with visiting “Manchester City”, but here – home defeat of the “Bavaria” 1: 7. Such attacks are not without consequences, no matter how assured in the opposite players “Roma”. The team missed psychological powerful uppercut that auknulos Romans in the final meeting with the “citizens”.
       

         Team Rudy Garcia was the favorite in the game with the “Manchester City”, who took in matches with “CSKA” just point and bloodless loss of the three best players – Kun Aguero, Yaya Toure and Vincent Kompany. Against this background, a victory “citizens” has found a reflection of sensation. Instead, the host of the game, such carnage against CSKA Moscow, the Romans tail between his legs, and his teeth chattering, trying to reduce all risks to a minimum. When Nasri made two goals in the second half, scoring cleared, no one in the “Roma” was not able to make a pile on the gate Hart.
       



Fans CSKA

         The second time in 2014 CSKA fans are deprived not configured as militant supporters of fun to watch from the stands behind home game “army.” In response to the injury of two Russian guys Italians and five goals into the net Akinfeev fans “army” made a volley of fireworks with supporters of “Giallorossi”, beat a couple of stewards and police clashed with Rome.
       

         Committee UEFA shocked rules of life rather narrow fan-brigade, sent CSKA penalty in the form of five matches without fans and two hundred thousand euros. Subsequently, the sanctions were eased – three games and one hundred thousand euros. As a result, all home games with steep European clubs “CSKA” held at the bare stands.
       

         
           
               Josep Guardiola
             “It was my first and hopefully last time I played at the empty stands. It’s strange, even comical. We always play for a large number of spectators. ”
       

         
           
               Manuel Pellegrini
             “This is strange and unusual. It is not true that the team that plays at home at the empty stands, is in a worse situation than the guests. Situation for both clubs equally hard. ”
       

         
           Yevgeny Giner: “Because of this history CSKA lost 6-7 million. Of course, this is a severe blow to our budget. ”
       

         Only Rudy Garcia found the positive side: “The audience will have a great opportunity to hear all the talk of players and coaches during the match.”
       

«Roma” – CSKA fans Muscovites – LaPresse

         Instead of blame to bow my head, without understanding most of the fans of CSKA made their way to the guest match with “Manchester City”, risking the club further sanctions. In the end, everything turned a little blood – hundreds of “army” brought the fans to “Etihad” and UEFA did not finish CSKA.
