523 Legendary Sail(1/2)
The beginning of the video was pitch black, with nothing but shouts.
"Haha, it's so cool. I want everyone to know that Chemnitz team lost today. That self-righteous and arrogant Chinese waste lost the game!"[]
"Will he lose too?"
"Yes, I lost, and I lost completely. After the game, I was so sad that I disappeared. I guess I didn't know where to hide and cry at this time, haha..."
With this shout, everyone knew that the best coach of the year belonged to Yang Cheng.
Then an image appeared on the video, a fan rushed out of the crowd, grabbed Yang Cheng tightly, excitedly and in pain, shouting loudly: "Please, don't leave Chemnitz, don't leave us!"
Then the picture switched to the stands, and a group of Chemnitz fans cried bitterly, tears blurring the oil on their faces.
"Please don't leave, Yang!"
"Stay here, heroes!"
"Yang, Chemnitz needs you!"
In the picture, Yang Cheng led a group of Chemnitz players to bow deeply to the fans in the stands.
The colors of the fans in the stands gradually turned red, and the music became inspiring in an instant.
I saw a line of words appearing on the screen, which read: "After leaving Chemnitz, he spent 3 years creating the great Kaiserslautern miracle and the legendary record of winning the Champions League in his first season!"
Then there was the scene that happened at the Camp Nou. The players of Kaiserslautern threw Yang Cheng high, caught him, and threw him again. The scene was frozen in the scene where all Kaiserslautern players raised their hands, while Yang Cheng was thrown in the air.
The slide switched to Beckham, and he fell to the ground and cried bitterly. Beckham was far from being as mature as he is now. Another line of words appeared on the picture, "For those who love him, he is an angel, but for his opponent, he is a devil!"
Then what happened to Yang Cheng in Serie A appeared. From the initial suspicion of fans to his complete outbreak, he led Inter Milan to the championship in his first season. At the celebration of the Tama Rakuten Stadium, tens of thousands of people shouted Caesar on the Rakuten Stadium. The momentum was enough to make everyone in the venue feel bloody.
Later, everyone saw Baggio being hurt by Bilica's black legs. When he was carried off the court, Yang Cheng grabbed Chris Schmidt in anger and shouted crazy. Then the scene where he held back tears in front of Baggio's stretcher. This scene was praised by countless Holy Spirit Knights as the most touching scene.
Then the music exploded again, becoming the game where Yang Cheng led Inter Milan to win the Champions League. After scoring the goal, Baggio rushed to Yang Cheng excitedly. After the prelude to his emotions, the two hugged them at critical moments, which made all their emotions vent.
Then there was the players' appreciation for Yang Cheng in an interview, especially Ronaldo's words. Yang Cheng lay directly on the grass, and Caesar's shouts sounded from the entire Meach Stadium, and the atmosphere was particularly strong.
The picture switched to the 2003 Champions League final, with countless fans shouting loudly in the stands.
"Caesar, please don't leave, stay!"
"Don't leave, please!"
"Stay here, Caesar, we will always support you!"
Then there was the hug of Nedved and Yang Cheng. Amid the shouts of fans, this hug came very touching.
A subtitle was once again posted on the screen, "Some people say that when a person dies, everything around him will become eternal. From now on, I will take Caesar's photo anytime and anywhere, because I hope that after I die, he can help me protect Inter Milan forever!"
The signature under the subtitles is a late name: Giuseppe Prisco!
When Yang Cheng saw this, the old man sitting in a wheelchair and rushing to greet the team appeared in his mind. He would not forget Prisco's trembling when he touched the trophy, nor would he forget Prisco's encouragement and support.
He also clearly remembered that on that night more than a year ago, he flew from Liverpool to Milan overnight, but he couldn't catch up to see Prisco for the last time. However, when he arrived, they told him that when Prisco died, he was still holding a photo of Yang Cheng in his hand.
At that time, he had the urge to cry because he really didn't know how to repay the old man.
Some people say that the most difficult thing in this world is love debt, human debt, and emotional debt, all of which are like this.
Another line of subtitles appeared, "Legendary Sail docked at Albert Pier..."
The picture switched to the day when Liverpool won the Premier League, especially the scenes of the TV station shooting the entire Anfield Stadium from a helicopter. Everyone felt the enthusiasm and the surprises of the fans after winning the championship. They blocked the stadium and the entire Liverpool transportation system completely collapsed.
But then, the picture switched to the Champions League final last season, and there was a clip of Piero's goal, and then it was a slide-style switch to the helpless photos of Liverpool fans, and the soundtrack used the song Yang Cheng wrote to Avril.
During the break, the picture turned dark and a row of subtitles appeared, "What would you do when you are in the Champions League final and are three goals behind? Give up? Surrender?"
Then there was a photo of Yang Cheng standing on the sidelines, pointing at the stadium, giving a very good sense of advice. The subtitles were: "He, choose to fight like a man until the last moment!"
When Drogba scored his first goal for Liverpool, the roar of the Ivorians spread throughout the venue. Then everyone rushed to the sidelines and decided to present the goal to Gerald in the stands. Gerald and the Liverpool fans in the audience couldn't help but stand up and sing the team song.
The whole process was pulled back from three goals behind to three consecutive goals, and then to the later reversal. The whole process happened to be in line with the climax of the soundtrack, giving people a feeling of passion, especially Carragher's penalty kick in the end, which pushed the atmosphere to the extreme, allowing everyone to deeply feel the excitement.
The final scene is frozen in the scene where Yang Cheng was carried around by Liverpool players.
When the lights in the venue dim, a burst of warm applause rang out throughout the venue, and it continued for a long time.
The narration in words seems to be very long, but in fact, in terms of video, it is only four or five minutes, but it almost covers Yang Cheng's coaching career over the past decade. It not only makes everyone revisit the legend of Yang Cheng's career, but also makes Yang Cheng feel a little unbelievable.
How lucky it was to be able to get from the depressed college student in his previous life to today!
Yang Cheng stood up with applause, and at the invitation of Johnson, he slowly walked up to the podium. On the way, he turned around and waved to the people in the venue, and many Liverpool players even whistled.
"Congratulations, Mr. Yang Cheng!" Johnson smiled and held the trophy and handed it to Yang Cheng's hands.
The latter took it, smiled and raised it high, waved at the crowd at the venue, and immediately received another burst of warm applause.
There is no doubt that Liverpool is the biggest winner tonight. Although only Carragher won the Best Defender in the Best Team, both MVP and Best Coach of the Year are in the hands of Liverpool, which will definitely be envied by other giant teams, and it can even be said to be jealous.
But Yang Cheng believes that one thing is mediocre if he doesn’t attract jealousy!
…………
…………
If the award ceremony was a celebration party, then the following lottery ceremony was a tense battlefield. If the people on the scene had not experienced such a change in person, no one would have believed that these two completely different atmospheres would appear in the same venue.
When Yang Cheng returned to his seat from the backstage, the lottery guests and the glass cylinders and small balls used for lottery have been launched, and the lottery has officially begun.
The first announced European points of European teams after last season's game, including the eight teams in the first place, namely Real Madrid, AC Milan, Barcelona, Liverpool, Manchester United, Inter Milan, Bayern Munich and Arsenal.
Last season's Champions League runner-up Juventus, Premier League powerhouse Chelsea, Ligue 1 Lyon, Portugal's Porto, the two giants of the Netherlands, Eindhoven and Ajax's Light Team were all ranked second, while Villarrell of La Liga, Schalke 04 of Bundesliga, Werder Bremen, and Ligue 1's Lille Light Team were ranked third.
Even in the last stage, there are also well-known European teams such as Benfica, Real Betis, Udinese, and Fenerbahce.
When the eight seed teams were randomly arranged in the group, Liverpool happened to be arranged to Group A.
When watching the guests show their actions of drawing the second team, Yang Cheng closed his eyes directly because he had a premonition, either Juventus or Lyon.
I saw the lottery guest take out a small ball, open it, take out a note, flip it, and show it to the audience.
"Juventus!"
There were really many people who were gasping for air conditioning throughout the game, because UEFA actually arranged the championship and runner-up of last season to the same group. Isn’t this clear to let Liverpool and Juventus fight?
Everyone knows that after experiencing the epic reversal last season, the grudges between the two sides on the court have been formed, and doing so now seems to be a bit suspicious of hype.
However, after all the teams in the second level were arranged and when they were drawn in the third level, the first team to be drawn was Villarrel, a La Liga powerhouse.
The submarine coached by Pellegrini performed very well last season, and it can even be said to be the most competitive team in La Liga except Real Madrid and Barcelona. Now they have drawn opponents like Liverpool and Juventus, which is probably going to draw a death group.
The last team in Group A is Portugal's Benfica.
When the whole lottery was over, many familiar people came over to comfort Yang Cheng.
The only death group in the Champions League group stage brings together the strongest teams among the four levels, from Liverpool to Juventus to Villarrell to Benfica. This death group is full of thorns and unknowns, and no one has no chance to be upset.
"I heard that someone wants to kill you Liverpool!"
Yang Cheng remembered Melissa's words for no reason, but he laughed instead.
If they want to kill us, will they definitely get what they want?
Not to mention Villarreal and Benfica, even if we bring Bayern and Barcelona in, we still have to make a fortune in the group. I don’t believe that even the group can’t get out of the line!
"I'm really a little unlucky!" Galliani walked over with a smile, and couldn't tell whether he was coming to comfort or to take advantage of the situation. He always felt that his smile was a bit fake.
"No, I don't feel unlucky at all!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.
"Oh? Why?" Galliani asked in a daze.
Yang Cheng laughed and said, "It's very simple, because no matter who the opponent is, we will definitely qualify from the group!"
After saying that, Yang Cheng was about to walk out of the venue, but stopped again and turned around, "Let Ancelotti be ready, see you in the knockout round!"
Looking at Yang Cheng's back, Galliani's smile froze. This guy was too confident.
But should he be said to be arrogant? Or should he have confidence?
The game has not started yet and the lottery has not yet come out. I just shouted that I want to win the four-crown champion. Is it so easy to be the four-crown champion?
Now that a group of death was drawn out, he could still laugh.
"It's so fucking hypocritical!" Galliani didn't believe it even though she was beaten to death. This was Yang Cheng's true mood.
…………
…………
The team boarded the bus again and prepared to return to the hotel.
Yang Cheng was very clear and felt that the players were not very interested. He would definitely not guess that it was because he was leaving the team to report to the national team, so he was reluctant to leave. He guessed it was because of the draw.
Except for Liverpool, the strength gap between the other groups is not small, which basically guarantees the interests of the seeds.
This is also a major principle for drawing lots in the Champions League group stage. After all, seed teams are basically giants and have high attention.
"Are you scared?" Yang Cheng asked casually.
Some of the players shook their heads, while others remained silent.
"That's how you guys were a few months ago, so they were 3 goals by Juventus in the first half!"
Yang Cheng's words made the players feel as if they were back in that epic game again, recalling that nightmare first half, and recalling that heavenly second half.
To be continued...
