Chapter 613: A false alarm, the perfect final opponent!

"Congratulations, Rudy,"

"Congratulations on leading the team to the Champions League final for the first time."

"What do you want to say at this moment?"

'Porto were great, they played a great game and they made it difficult for us at the Stadio d'Aragon. We were one of the luckier ones, we made the cut. I thought it was a dream now, but this dream is so real, haha. ”

"To be able to qualify for the final is the effort of everyone in the team."

"Standing here today, we know exactly what our goal is, give it our all, win the game, qualify for the final and then go to the Stade Saint-Denis in Paris."

"We did it."

"Dream and move forward!"

At this, the corners of Worrall's eyes moistened, and he could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart. It's a great dream for a player, but why not for him? When he took over the team, he never imagined that one day he would be able to lead the team to the Champions League final, but now that it has really come true, this is not a pipe dream.

"The next thing is to prepare for the Champions League final, who do you think Manchester United or Real Madrid will be the opponent?"

"I don't know, I think we're fearless now."

"Did you realize by now that you lost half of your main force in this game? Lucio will not be able to play in the final, Emerson, Ronaldinho and Ballack will not be able to play in the final, and with Kirsten and Kovac, half of the main players will not be able to play in the final. And the most terrifying thing is, what is Zheng Zhi's injury? ”

The reporter's words instantly drenched Worrall to the cold.

Oh, yes

Damn it, my workhorse!

Lucio, Emerson, Ronaldinho, Ballack, Kirsten, Kovacs! Six main players will not be able to participate. Zheng Zhi just went to the hospital to take a film, and I don't know what the situation is.

"It's sad, but I haven't thought about it yet. However, I believe Kovac can make it to the Champions League final, and Zheng Zhi should not have much of a problem, but I think everything will have to wait until it is checked out. ”

"Although a lot of the main players will not be able to participate in the finals, we are a team and we have a lot of good players to come up with."

That is so, but who believes it?

This is especially to use the substitute team to win the Champions League! Is it up to an 18-year-old Ribery to do it?

"Now it's time for you to think about the league, will you think about winning the league early?"

"One step at a time, what should come will always come."

Worrall smiled slightly, but his heart was dying of bitterness, and now his mind was full of wounded......

-------------------------------------

-------------------------------------

As soon as he returned to the locker room, Zheng Zhi went to the local hospital for further examination, and when Worrall held a press conference, Zheng Zhi had already completed the examination, and at this time he and the team leader sat on the bench at the door and waited anxiously.

After waiting for about fifteen minutes, the doctor inside the door finally came out.

But the face is really ugly, like a dead father.

Zheng Zhi took this scene in his eyes, and his heart also chuckled.

It's over, looking at this guy's expression, it must be very serious! It didn't take the doctor to speak, he guessed the result.

At this time, reporters from CCBV5, Sina.com, Sohu.com and "Sports Weekly" also rushed to Zheng Zhi's side, and when they saw Zheng Zhi's face, they seemed to have guessed something, and they all stood still.

The doctor put the film in front of Zheng Zhi, and then said quietly: "You are so lucky,"

"There are no broken bones."

"It's just a muscle contusion."

"God, why should he be so nice to you?"

It was Portuguese, which the team leader and reporters couldn't understand, only Zheng Zhi understood.

But he also felt that he had heard it wrong, as if it wasn't that serious?

He lifted his heavy eyelids.

"You just said that there were no broken bones? Just a muscle contusion? ”

He understood these diseases, and immediately realized that the problem was not as serious as he had just thought.

"Yes, you can fully recover after about 20 days of rest."

"Seriously, I wish you were a little more injured."

The doctor's face was still dark.

"Why?"

Zheng Zhi smiled, this news is too good, but why does he want to be seriously injured? But after thinking about it, he understood:

"Ah, you're a Porto fan!"

"I'm so sorry."

"Yes, I'm a Porto fan, but you don't need to say sorry, you guys won by fighting."

The doctor finally smiled.

"If you beat us, then you should beat the next opponent and win the Champions League, so that our sacrifice will not be so uncomfortable."

"Yes, we will, we will be the victors in the end."

"We'll make it less uncomfortable for you."

Zheng Zhi shrugged.

"If you want to recover faster, you have to treat it with warm compresses and physiotherapy to speed up tissue recovery, every day after 10 days."

"If you don't want to miss the Champions League final."

"Of course, thank you." Zheng Zhi extended his hands to express his gratitude to the doctor.

????

What's the situation?

What does that mean exactly?

Except for Dr. Zheng Zhihe, everyone else was confused, obviously the faces of the two of them just now looked like dead fathers and mothers, how could they be so happy now?

"Hey, doctor, what the hell is his injury?"

Yan Qiang finally couldn't help it, and hurriedly asked, but in English.

"It's not a big deal, but it's just to make it to the final."

"Huh?"

"You're special!" Yan Qiang suddenly said a foul sentence in Chinese, and then without saying a word, he turned his head and rushed at Zheng Zhile.

"Grass, Zheng Zhi, you frightened us, and thought your injuries were very serious!"

"It's okay, it's okay, I can make it to the finals, haha."

"I'm going to get the news out as soon as possible." The CCBV5 reporter interjected, "The people of the whole country are waiting for your news now." ”

"I'm coming, I'm coming, our Sina.com is the fastest, I'll log in to the website immediately to publish the news!"

"We're not slow on Sohu!"

……

……

At this moment, many fans are indeed paying attention to the news of Zheng Zhi's injury, and Zheng Zhi's injury is being hotly discussed on the Internet. Even the internationals are chatting in OICQ.

Fan Zhiyi and Sun Jihai were chatting.

"Zheng Zhi is estimated to hang,"

"Damn, I've been hurt like this before, but it will be better after two months, he took the initiative to leave the game just now, I guess it's cool."

"It's a pity to miss the finals in this life, alas, poor Zheng Zhi."

"It's okay, it's okay, he's still young, he has a chance, and it's not the last chance, is it?"

"It's also a shame that Zheng Zhi is playing in the Bundesliga, if it was in the Premier League, it is estimated that he would have been unable to bear it for a long time, and his physical fitness is still a lot worse, compared to us."

"If he comes to the Premier League in the future, it will probably be even more uncomfortable."

And many fans are also drinking beer in the bar, worried about Zheng Zhi.

"Damn, if Zheng Zhi is injured and can't play, will he still play in the Champions League final? Bayer Leverkusen has almost no one available. ”

"Just that little guy in Ribery? God, when the time comes, whether the opponent is Manchester United or Real Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen can be beaten like a dog. ”

"Well, in fact, even if Zheng Zhizhi is there, I don't think it is very likely that Leverkusen will win the championship, after all, there are too many main players missing."

"It can also be understood in this way, it's okay not to play, otherwise it will be even more sad to lose."

……

……

Soon, Sina.com and Sohu.com released news almost at the same time - heavy news! Zheng Zhi's injury is fine, and he will come back before the Champions League final! At the same time, CCBV5 also reported Zheng Zhi's news on TV, and almost everyone knew that Zheng Zhi's injury was not so serious.

On the contrary, there is no more news from the German side.

The Leverkusen team leader was skeptical of the Portuguese doctor's conclusion, so he did not report the news directly to Worrall, and everything needs to be returned to Germany for further re-examination before he dares to draw conclusions, and naturally no German media will report Zheng Zhi's injury.

Germans are so rigorous and believe in their own medical standards. So German fans don't know what Zheng Zhi's injury is like at all.

However, now the whole of Germany is in a state of joy, and Leverkusen's promotion to the final has diluted Zheng Zhi's injury.

UEFA awarded Ribery the best of the match this time: although he did not score, Ribery performed quite well in the game, he used tireless efforts, hard running, brave scrambling to keep Leverkusen's attack at a disadvantage, and he also contributed everything in defence. I believe that in the Champions League final, he will take on greater responsibility.

The opinion of the German "Kicker" was the same, with Franck Ribery picking up one point from all players: in a match that would determine who reached the final, the Frenchman made an outstanding contribution to the team with his diligence.

Zheng Zhi: 1.5 points, if he can play the whole game, his score will be higher. His injury also exposed a lot of problems for Bayer Leverkusen, with a number of players receiving yellow cards due to the lack of him causing defensive confusion in the midfield. Hopefully he's not injured enough to be in time for the German Cup and Champions League finals, as for the league? Even if he is missing, it shouldn't be a big problem?

Ballack: Two points, he was a lot better today than in the first leg. Defensively, he was shown a yellow card and missed out on the Champions League final! Of course the yellow card doesn't make us blame him, he did his best.

Ronaldinho: 2 points, he scored two goals, but one of them was scored with his hand, which gave him a yellow card and also made him miss the final, which he must regret because he could have played in the Champions League final and now he can only sit in the stands and watch.

Emerson: Without Zheng Zhi by his side, Emerson finally discovered his shortcomings, but he quickly increased himself and tried to become the heart of the team's midfield, and overall, he did okay.

Neuville: 2.5 points, he didn't do it when he needed to step up, he didn't work hard enough, hopefully he can be ready for the next Champions League final and be able to take the opportunity to score.

Hoffman: 2 points, Worrall has no choice in Kovac's long-term absence, Hoffman is not strong enough to be in the starting lineup, but he has been improving.

Lucio: 1.5 points, another player who fell before the final, if it wasn't for that yellow card, he would have been the most crucial player in the final, and now, it should be Hap to replace him.

LaMelo: 2 points, solid defensively, but after playing in midfield, the performance is average.

Novotny: The defence is solid, but the speed is too prominent, and his play at the back will be even more important in the final.

Gresco: There were a couple of times when the defense was reckless, but overall it was good.

Manager Worrall: Worrall's luck is good, he has a bunch of talented players who have seen his team go all the way in the league, the Champions League and the German Cup. But to be honest, Worrall's technical and tactical level needs to continue to improve, such as this game, he is actually not very clever at adjusting the team.

Bild doesn't have the same technical analysis as Kicker, and they show Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League final in the form of cartoons, and by the way, they mock it. In the comics, Leverkusen's soldiers stand on the final pitch with their swords in hand, waiting for Manchester United or Real Madrid.

The Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung put a photo of Zheng Zhi injured in the game, and attached the text - with him, you have everything. But now that the man is injured, what will Leverkusen do?

Early the next morning, Zheng Zhi had just woken up when he received a phone call from Schuster.

"Boy,"

"How's the injury?"

The tone was very urgent, and he asked Zheng Zhi about his injuries as soon as he opened his mouth.

"It's okay, it's okay."

"Muscle contusion, nothing was a big problem. The doctor said that it would be fine to rest for about twenty days. ”

"You can make it to the finals."

"That's good."

Toot Toot Toot Too

Then the Schuster on the opposite side hung up.

"I grass,"

"Just hung up? Don't say a word too much? Why don't you have to say a few more words in the Champions League final? ”

Zheng Zhi couldn't cry or laugh, this is Schuster's style, which is completely different from ordinary people.

However, being able to call also shows that Schuster cares about him very much, and his heart suddenly warms a lot.

After eating in the morning, accompanied by Yan Qiang, he went to the local hospital for a new round of examinations, and the results of the re-examination were exactly the same as when he was in Portugal, it was indeed just a muscle contusion, and there was no major problem, so he was much more relieved.

If you are injured, it does not mean that you will always be recuperating at home, you must prepare in advance, and there must be no accidents.

Many reporters stood at his doorstep and tried to interview him, but he refused. On the contrary, it was only when Barak and the others drove to their doorstep in the evening that the reporters were able to get some news about Zheng Zhi.

"I don't know,"

"But the results weren't good at all,"

"I think he's likely to miss the game, right?"

Barak said it in a good way, as if Zheng Zhi was really seriously injured, and he didn't mind joking in front of the German media, although everyone knew that Zheng Zhi's injuries were not serious.

"I think we'll have to sit in the stands together and watch the Champions League final."

Ballack looked at Ronaldinho and Emerson in the seat, with a bitter expression.

"This kid is lucky."

He glared at Ribery.

Everyone was at Zheng Zhi's home to watch Real Madrid's home match against Manchester United. Before the game started, Zheng Zhi invited everyone to taste the boiled chicken, but many people refused, and soon everyone ordered takeaway. I really can't stand the boiled chicken in white water, and I'd rather order takeout!

At eight o'clock in the evening, the second game of the 99-00 Champions Cup, Real Madrid's home game against Manchester United was played.

"Real Madrid, playing at home, it is impossible to let the victory slip away."

'Not necessarily, Manchester United could qualify because they are the champions, they played the final last year, and experience tends to be more advantageous in an important game like this. Real Madrid are also strong, but don't forget that they were beaten 4-2 by Bayern at home this season, so I think Manchester United can do the same. ”

"But I'd rather run into Real Madrid than Manchester United,"

"Well, hopefully Real Madrid, Real Madrid's backline, we have to fight."

"Michael! Watch carefully, don't let Robert Carlos blow you up, this guy's speed is terrible. Ballack patted Ribery on the head with his hand and told Ribery to concentrate, he couldn't play, but hopefully Ribery could play well.

"He's right, Michael, you're really up against your opponent this time, Robert is pretty fast in attack and defense, and you're going to have a tough time. Whether it's offensive or defensive, he's a cut above you. This is a real master. Zheng Zhi also agreed.

Robert Carlos, Ribery certainly knows it. Brazil's best left-back can even be ranked at the all-time level. He didn't watch less of Real Madrid's games, and he can be said to be very familiar with Carlos.

"But I think if the manager puts you on the left this time, I think there will be unexpected gains, the right side should be Ponte, let Ponte concentrate on defense, we give up attacking on the right side."

Zheng Zhi suddenly had an idea.

"It seems to be possible, compared to the left side, Real Madrid's right side is relatively much worse. On the right is that Salgado, who is slow, and Frank's speed can blow him up. ”

Ballack has apparently also studied Real Madrid.

"In Lucio's absence, our defense is in danger."

"Those two old guys aren't as defensive as Lucio," Barak grinned, "don't tell them, I'm serious." When Lucio is here, he is so handsome in his heart! ”

"Ahahahaha, I'll definitely tell them, don't worry."

"Unless you treat us to a big meal."

Ronalnidio looked confused: "Wait, the game hasn't started yet, why do you think the opponent will be Real Madrid?" Think Manchester United doesn't exist? ”

……

……

At twenty o'clock, the match between Real Madrid and Manchester United officially began, and after the opening, Manchester United played very conservatively, while Real Madrid attacked aggressively with home advantage. However, the first 20 minutes were a very anxious game, and Real Madrid were unable to pry the back of the net from Manchester United.

However, before the end of the first half, Raul still seized the opportunity, Redondo sent a through pass at the back, Guti took the ball in the front, hidden his left foot, Raul flashed from Silvestre and rubbed lightly, and finally scored.

With this goal, Real Madrid led 1-0.

In the second half, United went on a frenzied attack in an attempt to equalise, but were once again attacked by Real Madrid, Guti split the left flank, Robert Carlos crossed, and Morientes headed home.

In the end, Manchester United was unable to recover, losing 0:2 to Real Madrid and losing the semi-finals 2:4 on aggregate.

The final is, Bayer Leverkusen vs Real Madrid!
