Chapter 437 Nine years in a hurry
"Spectators, welcome to watch the second leg of the European Champions League semi-finals between Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain in the second leg of the 2014-2015 European Champions League. I am Huang Jianxiang and I will explain this game with Peng Weiguo... Weiguo, how long has it been since you came to England?"
"Hello, audience friends, I am Peng Weiguo... It's a coincidence that the last time I was in England, I happened to watch Arsenal's Champions League semi-final..." Peng Weiguo's thoughts suddenly drifted back to 2006, which was the first time Arsenal reached the Champions League final...
Peng Weiguo is a fan of the Premier League and has a sincere love for the Premier League team. He was very happy to be invited to broadcast the game with Huang Jianxiang in this game, not to mention that there are Chinese players appearing in the arena in this game, which is extremely perfect.
"Ahem, but there was a very unfortunate news before the game..." Huang Jianxiang coughed twice and smiled awkwardly, "Several young players of the national team were captured by the stadium security guards as terrorists because they were so enthusiastic about Henry. Fortunately, they called Liu Hao and the misunderstanding was resolved."
"Actually, we Chinese fans are not just a little bit. We are just too crazy women, so even the national team members are no exception. Everyone can tease them as a happy joke. Now they have returned to the box. After Henry knew the whole story, he has already treated them enthusiastically. It seems that it is a good thing..." Peng Weiguo smiled and downplayed the impact of this matter. "Okay, we have now got the big rosters of two teams. Arsenal has not changed much, but the list on the bench has changed slightly, and most of the veterans are indispensable. Of course, Liu Hao is indispensable. Paris Saint-Germain has not made any changes. Cabaye, who was teased by Liu Hao in the first round, still appeared in the starting list. It can be seen that Blanco still trusts him very much..."
"It's half an hour before the game. Arsenal will have an award ceremony later, which is specially presented to the meritorious players in 2006. The club may want to motivate current players to successfully enter the Champions League finals like in 2006! This is why Henry appears here, so let the director switch the signal back to the game site..."
Fans have already filled the Emirates Stadium, and no one will miss this moment of witnessing Arsenal reaching the Champions League final again. There have been many moments of excitement in London City, but it is usually at Stamford Bridge. This time it is finally Arsenal's turn. Arsenal fans don't always have to be sad at the end of the season.
In the center of the stadium, a simple rostrum was built, and the Arsenal president and professor leaned against the rostrum together, and they were waiting for something.
Soon, we saw that the familiar Arsenals in 2006 would come out of the stands of fans from all directions, just like heroes that appear from time to time in the movie, making fans so intoxicated.
First, the tall German goalkeeper Leman, who was hiding in the first row of the fan seat with a baseball cap, and the fans had never noticed his existence. If he hadn't thrown off his hat and jumped out of the billboard, he would have probably been able to lurk among the fans until the end of the game.
The fans' cheers immediately rang out, with the warmest applause...
Immediately afterwards, Pire, who played in Asia and India, appeared. Compared to the past, this guy is much older, but his eyes are still so charming... The one who came out with him was his side partner, Yongbery, who is still so fashionable and fashionable. His hair is still a beautiful landscape, but his beard is much whiter than before, and time is unforgivable. He has also become a real uncle.
Vieira, Campbell, Heleb, Ebue, and Gilberto walked out of the player passage together, constantly waving their hands to the fans, tears clearly erected in Heleb's eyes, and returning here made him very excited. Gilberto simply hugged Heleb's neck and buried his head deeply in his arms, not daring to see everything in front of him...
The cheers of the fans were like tsunamis. Seeing the former generals returning here, they were even more crazy than the players, and they really dreamed back to 06!
Finally, Henry walked out of the box and ran down the passage lightly, and the atmosphere instantly reached its highest level...
"Henry!"
"Henry!"
Compared to Ling Zhenbang and his previous madness, Arsenal fans shouted Henry's name rhythmically, without the urge to put Henry in their pockets.
"Ah, time is really a killer... Time has been nine years in a blink of an eye. Nine years is not a cycle, but why does it make people feel so sad?" Peng Weiguo in front of the big screen was already filled with tears, and he couldn't help but be moved by this scene. In fact, this guy is a Manchester United fan...
In the era when Manchester United's 1992 gold generation was called for the wind and rain, only Arsenal was the opponent that Manchester United was not lonely in that era... A great opponent is the most respectable. Without Arsenal, it would not have reflected the greatness of Manchester United. Of course, while Manchester United is great, Arsenal is also great.
"I almost couldn't control myself, alas..." Huang Jianxiang rubbed his eyes and did not let his tears come out. Although he is a Serie A fan, he is also a fan first. He knows everything about world football. "Ashley Cole didn't come, Fabregas didn't come. Cole may be worried that the fans wouldn't appreciate it. Fabregas followed Chelsea to Madrid, and he might not dare to come."
"I think at such a special moment, if they appear here, the fans will forgive them. At this moment, there shouldn't be disgust, only love!" Peng Weiguo wiped his eyes and turned his gaze to the big screen again.
At this time, the Arsenal chairman and the professor shook hands with the soldiers one by one, then hugged each other one, and presented a small souvenir to each other. The souvenir was also very thoughtful, that is, their jersey numbers were still on the jersey. Although it was not made of gold, this glory was precious.
The captain of this team, Henry, delivered a speech on behalf of everyone.
"Many years have passed, and we have not forgotten it yet. Although we did not win the European Champions League in the end, those years were our happiest days, which we could not replace no matter where we went. I love you, Arsenal..." Henry's speech was extremely sensational. As he spoke, he couldn't help but cry, and the other old things were naturally the same.
"Crying like a child... I hope Arsenal can sit until what he didn't do that year!" Huang Jianxiang sighed. "Okay, now it's Liu Hao and the others' turn to leave the factory. This is the handover of the scepter of the old and new generations of stars..."
Under the leadership of Vermullen, Arsenal's new players ran out of the player's passage and walked towards the rostrum. The atmosphere of the court came again...
"It's really possible. The professor thinks that such a struggle can guarantee Arsenal's breakthrough?" Blanco wondered in the visiting team's locker room. The game was played, not blown up. What's the use of the professor playing so many tricks? It's just to improve the morale of the team!
After some confusion, Blanco had to admit that morale was very important, so he had to have a good time with his disciples.
"I don't need to say much about how important this game is. If you want to earn a salary, you have to play hard! If you want to have honors, you have to play hard! If you want to go to a better club? Not to mention... No matter what you are pursuing, the ultimate goal is the same. One thing you need to remember is unity. If we don't unite, then you will not be able to win here!"
They are not three-year-olds, so there is no need to say much about this kind of principle...
After nearly twenty-five minutes of sensation, the Paris Saint-Germain finally walked out of the locker room, and they were greeted by poor more than 300 fans. The fans' voices were obviously incomparable to Arsenal.
Originally, Paris Saint-Germain fans could get more away tickets. According to the official search of UEFA, at least 3,000 tickets were left for Paris Saint-Germain, but the fans could get only more than 300...
Reason? Media reports said that it was because a group of Chinese fans took their tickets from Paris. I don’t know how Chinese fans got the tickets. Anyway, the tickets that originally belonged to Parisians were bought, and the great powers of Chinese fans made Parisians dumbfounded...
Blanco looked up at the Arsenal fans all over the sky. He didn't understand what was going on. In the past, the team had at least one or two thousand fans in away games. Today, there were only such minor fans, so he was of course disappointed. On such a day, he felt that he was abandoned by fans, just like the first round of the fans!
Who says fans are the most reliable 12th man? no...
Wait! I will definitely create the history of Paris Saint-Germain and lead the team to the Champions League final, hum! At this time, Blanco actually fought with the fans.
"Before the game, major spinach companies were optimistic that Arsenal would finally qualify. I saw the game as it was almost the same. There was nothing that could prevent Arsenal from entering the finals. After waiting for so many years, Arsenal should go there. Although I am not an Arsenal fan, I support Arsenal. Of course, I support Liu Hao more. I also called him in the afternoon, and he was full of expectations..."
"That incident may have had some impact on him a few days ago. I heard that Japanese star Miyajima Yoshi may also be related to this incident, but the police initially determined that Miyajima Yoshima had no problem, it was just the personal behavior of the fans, but I personally expressed my doubts because, just like their country, the credibility is too low... Just like what our country describes - a mutually beneficial cooperative relationship."
"Okay, okay, watch the game, no matter what he is. I agreed with Liu Hao that if we can qualify tonight, we will have a good meal in England..." Peng Weiguo pulled his thoughts back to the game. At this time, the players of both sides had already started to shake hands with each other and the game started immediately!
The professor returned to the coaching seat and got very close to Boulder. He didn't whisper with Boulder. It seemed that the two of them were going to command the game together?
"Steve, at the end of the game, let's have dinner together." The professor's expression was very relaxed, and it seemed to be relaxing compared to any previous game. It seemed that he was not playing in the Champions League semi-finals at all.
"Oh?" Boulder was slightly surprised, and then couldn't help asking, "Why are you not nervous at all now?"
According to his idea, the professor should show some anxiety symptoms more or less like himself!
"If it were nine years ago, I would, but now I really don't feel that way anymore, especially after I met those old disciples just now, I was thinking, I should enjoy the game well, as long as we hit the attention and play the game well, what if we win or lose? We are worthy of anyone." The professor spread his hands, and it looked really light and calm, and he was calm and composed. Is this the legendary breakthrough in cultivation and the transformation of gods ascends?
The referee finally blew the whistle, and Giroud gently tweaked the ball to decide who entered the finals. The game finally began.
Finally it began! Liu Hao was very excited. At this moment, his eyes were still focused on the game, one step closer to his ridiculous dream.
Since they drew 3-3 away with Paris Saint-Germain, Arsenal did not need to fight with their opponents to score goals at all, so they must be the main defense. After the professor's training for almost a season, Arsenal's defense is incomparable to the past. What's more, Arsenal has been called the copycat version of Barcelona for many years, so when they firmly control the ball in their midfield and backcourt, Paris Saint-Germain played very uncomfortable. They need to score a goal and take the initiative in the game back to their own hands.
The Parisians had to suppress Arsenal in an attempt to suppress Arsenal in the half and were in a hurry. But they were disappointed, and Arsenal was not in trouble at all. The high-intensity pressure in the first twenty minutes did not collapse Arsenal, but instead made Arsenal's defensive counterattack play vividly. If Giroud was not a center forward for defensive counterattack, Arsenal would have scored a goal long ago.
The twenty-minute crazy attack did not get any effect, so Paris Saint-Germain slowed down, and Arsenal did not rush to counterattack, because they didn't need to counterattack at all. They only needed to play twelve points to welcome Paris Saint-Germain's offense. The team that defended the last team was the champion! I don't know when, the professor had implemented this concept to the players. This was impossible if it was in the past with the professor's stubborn personality, but this year's professor was very abnormal...
Chapter completed!
