Chapter 570: Revisiting Japan

PS: I didn’t see the message, so let’s forget about the book friend group~

With this draw and Real Madrid's unexpected defeat on another field, defending champion Fiorentina locked in the group one round ahead of schedule!

Real Madrid is really sad. They were still ahead of Leverkusen 1-0 until five minutes before the game ended. Unfortunately, at the last moment, the spiritual leader and big brother Kirsten, the pharmaceutical factory, stood up. His two shots within five minutes pierced through his compatriot Ilgna's fingers twice, leading Leverkusen to complete a wonderful reversal!

After this round, Fiorentina scored 11 points in advance with three wins, two draws, and eleven points. Leverkusen ranked second with six points, Liverpool and Real Madrid tied for third with five points.

This means that Leverkusen only needs to win in the last group stage, even if Real Madrid and Liverpool decide the outcome in each other's competition, they have to face the reality of being eliminated in the group stage.

This situation scared Real Madrid fans because it reminded them of the scene two years ago, when Fiorentina and Real Madrid were also divided into the same group, and the final result was that Real Madrid was defeated by Glasgow Rangers and Fiorentina in the last round.

This time, probably, maybe, maybe, maybe, there will be no situation like the one two years ago? This is the inner thoughts of Real Madrid fans after learning about the team's current qualifying situation.

Considering that there was no unpleasantness between this time and Fiorentina (many people believe that Fiorentina deliberately lost to the Wanderers two years ago to trick Real Madrid into the group stage because of a malicious collision between Sanchis and Barti), many Real Madrid fans and pro-Real Madrid media are loudly calling for Fiorentina to carry forward the spirit of fair competition and never let the team down in the last round of the group stage.

Zhuang Mingge has always been quite unaware of this requirement - in his opinion, football matches rely on their own abilities, and what's wrong with others at the critical moment of life and death? Besides, we Fiorentina have now locked in the first place in the group. How to play in the last game depends on the specific situation. Just think about it, Leverkusen, who is extremely eager to play in European football, will fight hard in the last round of the game under the idea of ​​"winning and advancing".

There is no need for Fiorentina to play Real Madrid without any benefit.

However, Zhuang Mingge also knew that his thoughts could not be directly told to the outside world, otherwise it would have caused a stir in European football. Therefore, he sent Kenion, who was skilled in handling interpersonal relationships, to hold a brief press conference, saying that Fiorentina would take every game seriously and would never have passive slacking off in the game, etc.

In short, Zhuang Mingge's purpose is to appease Liverpool and Real Madrid, so as to avoid them from always whining with him and affecting the game status of Fiorentine players.

After playing at Anfield Stadium, the entire Fiorentina team did not return to Italy, but took a special plane provided by Qatar Airways to Tokyo, Japan. However, the actions of this rich man in Florence were envious of Liverpool players: You should know that they sometimes take trains when they go to mainland Europe to play away games.

As for the staff responsible for market development and logistics support, they had already arrived in Tokyo to make preliminary preparations as early as the team went to Liverpool to play.

The Japanese Football Association warmly welcomed Florence, especially Zhuang Mingge's visit again. The two sides have had very pleasant cooperation in the football field in the past few years, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a mutually beneficial relationship. In addition to the relationship between Japanese fans, after all, as the overlord of Europe, Florence has a much greater influence in this group than Cruzero.

Therefore, compared with the South American Liberators champion Cruzero who came from Brazil, the real Japanese Football Association will naturally give Fiorentina more care and preferential treatment before the game. Japanese fans who worship advanced European football have packaged the Tokyo National Arena around the same as Florence's home court in the past few days. While making Cruzero feel extremely unhappy, he even protested to the organizers of the event, it also made the Fiorentine players who are working hard to make the jet lag feel very happy. This support from Japanese fans gives them a feeling of fighting at home.

In the past few days before the Toyota Cup, in addition to handling various matters step by step, the chairman of the Football Association, Saburo Kawabuchi, also avoided the paparazzi one night, quietly appeared in the hotel where he was staying in Florence, and walked into Zhuang Mingge's room.

"Good evening, it's been a long time since I saw Chairman Kanein." Zhuang Mingge, who had already learned about the news of Kanein's visit, pretended to be enthusiastic and shook hands with the other party, and let the other party into the door. "I wonder if Mr. Chairman was here late at night, what's the point of doing?"

Although Zhuang Mingge knew the purpose of Saburo Kawabuki's visit, he could not have pointed out such a thing, so he still had to do it on the surface.

"That's right, Chairman Corleon." Walking into the presidential suite where Zhuang Mingge checked in, and finding a seat to sit down, Saburo Kawabuchi said respectfully, "I am here to visit you this time, first of all, to express my sincere gratitude to you, thank you for bringing our players to the stage of European football."

Although Zhuang Mingge never made clear what he did, Saburo Kawabuki knew in his heart the huge role the other party played in these two transfer transactions.

Why can Anderlecht, a top domestic giant in Belgium, like Shunsuke Nakamura, who has no reputation in Europe? Isn't it because Anderlecht is a satellite club in Belgium in Florence!

As for the new generation of Japanese football leader Hideho Nakada, not to mention, he can join Parma, a strong team that is ranked among the top in Serie A. If Zhuang Mingge has not done any effort, he probably won’t even believe it.

You should know that when the Japanese Football Association went to Italy to promote the player business for the first time, no one was willing to pay attention to them. Almost all Serie A teams thought that it was just a desert of football, and what good players could be produced?

Miura Chiroki? What's that? If it weren't for the sake of large sponsorship fees, ** wouldn't have let this guy who occupies the foreign aid quota enter the club's door.

Therefore, just using Shunsuke Nakamura and Hidesuke Nakada to Europe is enough to make the Japanese Football Association, led by Saburo Kawabuki, feel very grateful to Zhuang Aige.
