136. We are champions

Al Ahly Dubai, who are trailing by a big margin on aggregate, don't have much to think about right now, and scoring a goal to save a little face is what they are most eager to do.

As the core of the field, Ribeiro was restricted for two consecutive games without threat, which also made him hold back a fire, and he was not very good at individual breakthroughs, and he began to frequently take the ball by himself.

After being intercepted by Longteng players on several occasions in a row, Al Ahly Dubai, who played too loosely, conceded the goal again.

This time in the 33rd minute of the second half, Qi Ming used his physical advantage to card Ribeiro's dribbling line, and then when Ribeiro thought about him, he used his body to squeeze the opponent away and snatch the ball.

Qi Ming, who got the ball, observed the opponent's defense and stood up a little, and then made a decisive long pass.

Because the whole team is thinking about attacking, there are only three people in the back line, and now the back field of Dubai Al Ahli is a big gap.

Qi Ming's long pass was very accurate to find someone, and it was Pato, who was completely unguarded after a large empty area on the right side.

Pato easily unloaded Qi Ming's ball and accelerated to get rid of the defending centre-back Kwon Kyung-won, and then faced the attacking goalkeeper Mahmoud with a beautiful spoon shot, and the ball fell into the net after a header past Mahmoud.

"Haha! It's 3:0. He Wei was completely relaxed at this time, "If Ahli continues to fight like this, he will be beaten." ”

"This ball can see Qi Ming's overall view. Xu Yang also tried his best to praise the players of the Longteng team, "After grabbing the ball, quickly observe, decisively send a good ball, and be extremely calm." The Longteng team did not weaken its defensive and offensive capabilities because of Lin Feng's departure. ”

In fact, if He Wei and Xu Yang knew that Zhang Sheng replaced Lin Feng because they were afraid that he would be injured and transferred out of the basket, it is estimated that this expression would not be the same.

Pato's goal was a real kill for the game.

On the pitch, with the exception of Ribeiro, who was still trying to make a name for himself by scoring a goal, the rest of Al Ahly's players had largely given up on the game.

In the thirty-eighth minute of the second half, Zhang Sheng made another substitution adjustment, and Xiang Tiange replaced Xiao Yunfan, who ran back and forth for a whole time, and is still being targeted by Ribeiro.

Now the substitutions of the Dragons are more about rewarding the players.

In stoppage time, Zhang Sheng used up his last substitution, and Chavez replaced Pato, who had locked the game, and asked Pato to come off the pitch to receive the applause of the fans.

At this time, the fans of the Longteng team in the stands have already begun to sing the chorus, first the team song of the Longteng team, then "Singing the Motherland", and finally the uniform national anthem sounded in the whole stadium.

When the referee Ilmalov blew the whistle for the end of the game, all the personnel of the Longteng Club, who were crowded on the sidelines to celebrate, rushed into the field.

All the players are shouting and shouting, some are "we win", some are "we are champions", and many are meaningless "ah" shouts, but these are the most sincere expressions of the players of the Dragon Teng team.

He Wei also shouted loudly at this time: "The game is over." This is the second AFC Champions League championship for a Chinese club in three years. Longteng became the second club after Guangzhou Evergrande to win the highest honour in Asian professional football. Let's congratulate the Dragons. ”

"Because the Longteng team has won the Chinese Super League championship before, then now they are also the double champions this year. This is a very valuable title. This is also the second double team in the Chinese Super League, the previous team is Guangzhou Evergrande, which was robbed of the Chinese Super League title by Longteng this season. Xu Yang also added excitedly.

"This victory is not only the pride of Longteng, but also the pride of Chinese football. He Wei began to summarize the game, "Although he cannot represent the victory of Chinese football in an all-round way, he at least represents the efforts and direction of Chinese football after the professional reform." On this battlefield, the Longteng team defended the honor of Chinese football. If there are more Chinese Super League teams in the quarterfinals or semi-finals of the AFC Champions League every season, then I believe that Chinese football will be able to stand on the top podium in Asia sooner or later. ”

On the field at this time, the players of the Longteng team were celebrating wildly, as the head coach of the team and the designer of the perfect opponent's tactics, Zhang Sheng was lifted up by his disciples, and then thrown high into the air.

As the captain, Khalil, who was replaced halfway, had tears in his eyes, because he knew that the winner of this game would not only determine the champion of the AFC Champions League, but also likely to determine the outcome of the Asian Footballer of the Year.

Before the final, everyone was given expectations, but Ribeiro, who was completely frozen in both games, was also envious of the players who watched the Longteng team celebrate, and he kept thinking that if he could have transferred directly to the Chinese Super League instead of the UAE League, maybe he should be celebrating crazy now - the overall strength of the UAE League is still too weak.

The fans in the stands were already hoarse at this time, especially the old fans in Jiangcheng, who had even been blurred by the tears of the joy of victory, and Jiangcheng football finally ushered in the day of its rise.

As the boss of the group behind the team, Zhang Zhijun accepted the congratulations of the VIPs who came to watch the game with a smile on his face on the rostrum, and the mayor of Jiangcheng City held Zhang Zhijun's hand cordially and said: "Thank you Longteng Club for the honor brought to Jiangcheng, I hope you will make persistent efforts, and the Jiangcheng City Government will be your backing." ”

As a real estate merchant, there is nothing happier than such a commitment.

Soon the AFC Champions League award ceremony officially began, although the temperature in Jiangcheng in November was already very cold, but Zhang Zhijun had already changed into the jersey of the Longteng team, smiling from ear to ear in the stands and paying attention to the podium.

The Longteng team first won the AFC Champions League Fair Play Award, and Lin Feng, as the captain, received the trophy from AFC Vice President Salman on stage.

Then Nie Jiang took the stage to receive the top scorer award, and after the trophy was handed to Nie Jiang by an executive from the AFC's chief sponsor, Emirates, Salman also pulled Nie Jiang over and said, "Congratulations, young man." The future of Asian football is yours. ”

Then Pato steadily walked onto the podium and won the 2015 AFC Champions League Most Valuable Player that is also the MVP award, and after receiving the trophy, he even winked at his wife Lu Shuang, who was in the family and friends of the Longteng team not far away.

Pato's action was immediately greeted with cheers, applause and good-natured laughter from the fans.

The culmination of the award ceremony finally arrived when Al Ahli Dubai took the stage to receive the runners-up medals, and all the players and coaches of the Dragons as the champion team will take the stage to receive the championship medals.

In this game, Pato, who scored twice in the game, wore the national flags connected with the Chinese flag and the Brazilian flag and danced samba while walking, and even Ben Alpha, who has always had a serious expression and did not smile, was happy to hug Nie Jiang, and he could find his form in China, this trip was the right one.

When Lin Feng received the AFC Champions League trophy from Salman as the captain, the award ceremony reached its climax, and the song of "E Are the Champions" also sounded, and when the award presenters left the podium, all the players of the Longteng team jumped up happily to celebrate the hard-won championship.

When taking the team's family photo, the broadcast camera was firmly fixed on the championship trophy.

In the end, all the teams of the Dragons gathered together, taking turns to hold the trophy high and go around the field, so that all the fans could see the trophy up close.

Zhang Sheng also watched this scene with a smile on his face at this time, all the foundation of football comes from the support of these fans, which is also the charm of football.

The victory of the Longteng team has caused great repercussions in China, and the shock to the football circle is also very big.

Guangzhou Evergrande has been dominating the Chinese Super League as a king in the Chinese Super League before, but on the battlefield of the AFC Champions League, especially in the semifinals, the final stage of the game is always very anxious.

And this time, the two games of the Longteng team in the final of the AFC Champions League are absolutely crushing, and it seems that the first game is a little more difficult, but those who have watched the game know that there is no referee's almost crazy black whistle, in fact, there is not much difference from the second game.

Judging from the statistics after the game, the possession rate of the Longteng team is as high as 65%, and the number of shots on goal is also 13 to 5 has an absolute advantage, and the number of shots on target is also 7 to 2 ratio, and at the same time, the red and yellow cards, the Longteng team has no red and yellow cards, and Dubai Al Ahli has a red card and three yellow cards.

It can be said that Dubai Al Ahli is completely exhausted.

However, when the media compared the investment of Longteng team and Guangzhou Evergrande in the AFC Champions League trophy, they found that the gap between the two sides was too big, after all, all the domestic players of Longteng team were trained by themselves.

The operation model of the Longteng team has given a lot of inspiration to domestic clubs, maybe everyone does not have such a strong ability, so good luck to cultivate so many strong young players like the Longteng club, but as long as you invest money in youth training, it is definitely not a loss.

The Beijing media, which has always complained about Guangzhou Evergrande, bluntly said that Evergrande is not a perfect model for football revitalization, and the way of the Longteng team is more suitable for Chinese football.

The AFC Champions League won the championship, in addition to making the club's reputation resounding throughout Asia, several young players in the Longteng team have received a lot of attention, especially Nie Jiang, a young player under the age of 18, actually won the Golden Boot Award of the AFC Champions League this season.

Nie Jiang's achievement has achieved unprecedented achievements, and it is estimated that there will be no one to come in the future, after all, it is too terrifying to win the top scorer of the AFC Champions League at the age of 17.

Nie Jiang's name even overtook Pato, who won the Most Valuable Player.

The day after the match, almost all the sports media reported on the Dragons' victory, and even national state media such as Xinhua News Agency joined in.

In addition to congratulating Longteng Club for winning the championship, Longteng Club gave high praise to Longteng Club's high investment in the youth training system and cultivated a large number of talents for national teams at all levels, and made suggestions that youth football, campus football, and national football are the path that Chinese football should take to rise.

This is a world of difference from Guangzhou Evergrande winning the championship in history, Xinhua News Agency issued an article saying that the AFC Champions League championship should not be allowed to become an anesthetic for Chinese football.

Of course, the official media of Jiangcheng City did not let go of the city's honor, and the city government sent a congratulatory letter, first congratulating the Longteng Club on the championship, and then mentioning that it hoped they would continue to work hard and play well in the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup.

At the headquarters of the Longteng Club, the season celebration party that has been postponed because of the AFC Champions League final was finally held, according to the Longteng team, the season celebration party is actually the "money conference", so it is also the most anticipated by everyone.

According to the previous bonus reward principle set by the Longteng Club, plus the temporary goal difference bonus before the final, the Longteng team will send out 20 million in the final of the AFC Champions League alone.

This is also the largest one-time bonus ever given out by the Dragon Club.

At the celebration party, all the players and coaching staff members were full of smiles, and it was not a good idea to have a large amount of income while receiving honors.

In addition to the prize money, there is also a tradition of the Dragon Club at the celebration party, which is to select its own best player, best scorer, best local goalscorer, and best improved player awards.

In the end, Pato won the first two honors against everyone, which is also the second time Pato has won these two honors in the Dragon Club, and there is a bonus of 200,000 yuan along with these two honors.

The best local goalscorer was won by Nie Jiang, who scored five league goals.

Finally, the best improved player of the Longteng team that local players are most concerned about, the same is the "Liuyang support quota" has also officially come out, and Nie Jiang, who is now popular in the team, will get the full support of the club on the issue of staying abroad, but in view of his young age, the club needs to consider his retention of foreign countries extremely carefully, so he is likely to stay in the club for a few more seasons.

To be honest, Nie Jiang got this quota to most of the players of the Longteng team a little surprised, because the captain Lin Feng wanted to stay in the foreign country is well known to everyone in the team, and now the club did not help him to operate, but gave the quota to Nie Jiang, and many people were a little confused.

But soon, everyone knew the reason, and Lin Feng's transfer and departure was made public in the domestic football circle. Lin Feng himself also expressed his emotion on his Weibo: "The establishment of a generation of dynasties is inseparable from the dedication and efforts of countless people! Those who have paid and now left, those who are paying but are about to leave, and those who are extremely envious of those who may pay immediately! Personnel change years pass, and the law has remained unchanged since ancient times. Only my heart is eternal, and it will not change because of the change of time! If one day, I can't continue to walk with you, I will also bless you forever in my heart!"

Lin Feng's Weibo immediately attracted everyone's attention.
