In the early morning of the next day, when Ye Chen was taking the elevator, he happened to meet this group of fans who had just woken up, and with his half-baked French level, Ye Chen could barely understand their conversation. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Bill, when did we fall asleep last night? Lying on the ground anyway. ”

"I don't remember, I don't even know the result." The man named Bill said with chagrin.

"I'm so dizzy. I seem to remember someone coming to our room last night. Who is it? ”

A few drunks still seem to be a little unconscious, but it is true that they drank too much yesterday, basically taking advantage of the strength of the wine to mess around in the hotel, and looking at their appearance, they did not deliberately affect the rest of others.

Ignoring this little episode, Ye Chen came to the eldest brother's room.

"Xiaochen, I woke up so early today." Ye Cong opened the door and said with a smile.

"I went to bed early yesterday, so it's good to exercise and rest."

"Jason is still asleep and looks like he had a lot of fun yesterday."

"Good morning, Alina." As soon as Ye Chen sat on the sofa, Alina took a box of snacks for the two brothers to eat.

"Good morning, leaf." Alina put breakfast away and sat with Ye Cong.

"I'm not going to play anywhere else today, I guess there are more people watching the game, so I'll have to go there early." Ye Cong obviously has experience in watching this large-scale game, so he made arrangements in advance.

Ye Chen's ticket is located on the opposite side of the main stand, and it is worth 150 euros, and the view is generally good. Fortunately, one of Ye Cong's customers helped, otherwise he would not have been able to get a ticket at this price.

After entering the knockout stage, a large number of fans poured into the city of Kyiv, so the traffic on the road was easy to cause congestion, and Ye Chen and the others chose to take the subway to the Olympic National Stadium in Kyiv. The road to the stadium is full of uniformed police, and in Europe when it is a big event, there are a large number of security personnel. The world of football is not something that can be solved by a nozzle, and conflicts between fans always erupt inadvertently.

Even if we arrived near the stadium early in the afternoon, and there was still a long time before the 8pm game, there was already a dense crowd here, but thanks to the help of the police and volunteers, the fans were able to find their way into the stadium.

didn't wait until dinner to enter the stadium, but directly ate something outside and then packed it with him, and then Ye Chen and the others pulled each other and began to move slowly around the stadium.

Security checks to enter the stadium were strict, and Ye Chen's DSLR camera was forbidden to be brought into the stadium and was required to be stored in a storage place at the entrance. Ye Chen, who originally wanted to take a few photos of the stars, was much lowered, and the shooting function of the mobile phone was really unable to undertake this task.

There were many gifts related to the European Cup in the stadium, and at Alina's request, Ye Chen and they all wore England jerseys. Ye Chen chose Steven Gerrard's number 4 shirt and has been deeply in love with the Reds captain since the Istanbul night in '05.

When Ye Chen found his seat, there were already many fans from England gathered around, they were wearing England team jerseys, some were carrying huge buntings, and some were painting national flags on their friends' faces.

As more and more fans enter the stadium, the warm-up activities of the stadium begin, and the players of both sides of the game are continuously broadcast on the big screen in mid-air, especially when the big stars of the country appear, the fans will set off cheers one after another.

The official camera will also randomly capture the fans who entered the stadium, especially the fans who were captured, all showed great performance and made some interesting responses very cooperatively. If it is a couple, both parties will hug and kiss each other passionately.

It seems that the "reputation" of British fans in world football has been deliberately prepared by the organizers in front of the stands where British fans gather 80% of the security personnel to maintain order. These security guards are perhaps the most innocent of the people, not only unable to watch the game behind them, but also constantly worried about the presence of fans outside of them.

As the clock approached the official opening time, the players above were ready to take on the pitch. A group of volunteers stood in the middle of the field with huge flags of England and Italy. Afterwards, the referees and players also prepared for the start of the game.

"Uncle, why don't you start yet?" Jason got up from his seat and stood on tiptoe and looked out into the court.

"It's coming, the players are ready." Ye Chen saw that the time at this time was close to 8:40. It is estimated that the referee will blow the whistle for the game in a moment.

At 8:45 local time, the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game, and at the same time, cheers from fans on both sides also rang out on the field. Jason also stood in his seat and kept waving the small flag of England in his hand. Ye Chen took his nephew's little hand, worried that he would fall off the chair, and with the other hand he held a small telescope to look at the court.

The players on the field fought hard for half time without an inch, neither side completed the goal, and the score of 0:0 was brought to halftime.

Taking advantage of the free time of the halftime, Ye Chen squeezed through the crowded crowd and came to the store to buy drinks, but at this time, there was already a long queue at the door of the store, and the fans who had been shouting and cheering had already dried up.

Tens of thousands of fans scattered throughout the stadium, on the sidelines of the stadium, as if organized, chanted and sang rhythmically, cheering for their team. Ye Chen also sang with the surrounding England fans for a while, so he felt that his voice was really dry, but he didn't expect the store to be so popular.

waited until the second half began, and the fans in line began to shrink, so that Ye Chen was fortunate enough to buy drinks. In a hurry, he ran back to his seat with a few bottles of drink. In the time since they left, neither side has completed the goal.

Until the end of overtime, there was still a zero-point draw on the field. At this time, the fans were even more anxious, constantly raising their voices and roaring, and these fans cheering and shouting all over the stadium seemed to be no more relaxed than the players on the field.

It seemed that God was not on England's side today, and in a brutal penalty shoot-out, the Italians ended up having the last laugh. The heroic Buffon pounced on Ashley? Young's pivotal goal sent the Three Lions out of the European Championships. At this moment, the counterpart to the happy cheering Italian fans is the silent and sad Englishman. People watched the frustrated players on the field silently, with tears in their eyes.

Jason hugged Alina and couldn't stop the tears in his eyes, and Ye Cong gently comforted the child on the side.

The England players on the pitch cleaned up their mood and stood together again, walking in front of the stands of the England fans to thank the fans, who took the lead and slowly remembered the singing.

When you go through the storm

Hold your head high

Not afraid of the dark

At the end of the storm

There are golden skies

and the sweet singing of the larks

Through the wind through the rain

Your dreams may be shattered

Keep going, keep going

With the hope in your heart

You'll never walk alone, you'll never walk alone......

Jason emerged from his father's arms, choking back tears, and finally the people around his vague followers sang slowly.

"Dad, did we lose?" Jason suddenly turned around and asked Ye Cong.

Ye Cong looked at his son and didn't know how to answer him.

"Yes, we failed." Suddenly, an old man wearing England's No. 4 jersey suddenly spoke up. "But we'll be back, lad."

Looking at the old man with sparse hair but a thick beard in front of him, Jason nodded and hugged the old man with open hands.

"Thank you."
