While the Sampdoria players were celebrating, a makeshift podium was erected.

Lu Bing and Wang Yixing, who had finished interviewing Gao Zheng and the other players, exited the stadium area and stood on the sidelines, watching the Sampdoria players who were happily celebrating their victory, and Gao Zheng was among them.

He also brought a five-star red flag, which he wore in front of the reporters' cameras when he was interviewed.

Now he draped the flag behind him like a cape, running all over the field, and joining in the celebrations of his teammates at any time.

In a large blue and white crowd, this red is very conspicuous and can be seen at a glance no matter where it is.

This is not the first time that Lu Bing and Wang Yixing have seen Gao Zheng draped the national flag - when they were in the second division, Sampdoria was successfully promoted, and Gao Zheng also draped the national flag. However, at that time, whether it was the competition or Gao Zheng, the influence was still limited, and this scene could not be seen by more people.

It's different now, it's the Coppa Italia final, it's the highest honour in the whole of Italy, and it's going to be broadcast live to the whole of Italy.

"But it's just for the Italian live broadcast...... Wang Yixing sighed. I really want to see this happen in Europe, I don't know if I can do it in my lifetime......"

"It has to work." Lu Bing gave his companion an affirmative answer.

"If there really is a day when it's exciting just thinking about it......"

"That's history, and if we can be on the spot, we're witnesses to history."

"That's good."

"yes, that's nice."

The two reporters just stood side by side, looking at Gao Zheng, looking forward to the day when history would be created.

Fiorentina came to the stage first to receive the silver medal as runners-up, and each of them was sullen and listless, and the silver medal did not comfort them.

Just like Gao Zheng said, no one in the team that reached the final wanted to win a runner-up.

If you don't win the championship, you're a failure.

But there is no need to sympathize with Fiorentina, because if Sampdoria did not perform well in the game, then it will be their turn to cry and mourn now.

After the Fiorentina players received their awards with expressionless faces, the audience erupted in a huge cheer - it was the turn of the champions!

When Gao Zheng wore the Chinese flag on the podium, the shutter sound of the photojournalists did not stop, and the flash lights on the scene were loud. This scene is frozen in the memory card.

I believe that by tomorrow, the photos will definitely appear in various Italian media and be widely disseminated on the Internet.

Everyone will see Gao Zheng and the Chinese flag.

What is the best image output?

That's it.

Through a photo of receiving the award, everyone remembered what the Chinese flag looked like, and also knew that on this stage, there was a Chinese player, who was the champion winner.

There is no better national propaganda film than this.

You say 10,000 words in front of the Italians, how good China is, and you can't stand up to Gao Zheng's wonderful goals and the footage of holding the trophy with the national flag after the final.

Isn't the confrontation between Gao Zheng and the Italian media last season a good illustration of this?

Look at it now, is there still the Italian media that keeps blackmailing Gao Zheng?

When captain Palombo received the trophy on behalf of the team, he held it high and the players raised their arms as if they were lifting the trophy as well. Behind them, blue-and-white confetti ribbons erupted and flew all over the sky.

Every Sampdoria player has a happy smile on their face.

At this moment, they are indeed happy.

Borata, who saw this scene from the stands, couldn't help but wipe his eyes and wipe away the tears that overflowed from his sockets.

This scene reminded him of the team's relegation from the First Division, how desperate he was at that time, and it felt like the world was falling apart.

The whole sky turned gray, and it was not possible to return to its original hue for a long time.

It was at this moment that the tall young man pushed the door in, bringing him the only color.

At that time, he didn't even believe that the team could quickly return to the first division, let alone win any championships.

As a result, all of this happened and came true in three seasons.

We're back in the first division, we've finished third in the league, we've played in the Champions League and we've reached the knockout stages of the Champions League, we've won the Coppa Italia!

After Palombo lifted the trophy for the team, all the Sampdoria fans in the stands were in the driver's seat, including Borata and his son.

If you're not a Sampdoria fan, it's hard to understand that feeling.

They were once glorious, but more often than not, painful memories that sank into darkness.

Nowadays, all the elderly Sampdoria fans still occasionally reminisce about the prosperous old days, and now Sampdoria has brought them that feeling again.

"Come on, Doria! Come on, Sampdoria! ”

The song resounded throughout Serie A that year, and it was the most glorious moment of Italian football and the most glorious moment of Sampdoria.

In the past twenty years, this song has been sung countless times, but none of them have made them feel more emotional than today, as if they have returned to twenty years ago in the song.

It wasn't just Borata, who was wiping tears, but also a lot of Sampdoria fans.

In an era when football is becoming more and more commercialized and needs a lot of money to support it, they really didn't expect their team to win the championship again.

To finish third in Serie A should be their limit.

"Congratulations Sampdoria! They deserve to be the Coppa Italia winner! They were underdogs, beating second-placed Roma, top-ranked Juventus and third-placed Napoli all the way to the final, against fourth-placed Fiorentina...... It can be said that for this championship, Samp killed the top four in the league! The championship obtained in this way is the most convincing! ”

In the bar, Xiao Yingying and her friends raised their glasses in the direction of the TV screen, as if they were holding Italian glasses instead of wine glasses.

"Cheers! For the champions! She shouted loudly, like a big sister.

"Cheers!! For the Champion!! Her companions responded to her in unison.

"Cheers!! For the championship!! "The whole bar raised their glasses.

……

In the hut where the lights were not turned on, the computer screen was the only light source in the room, and the light reflected on Feng Shiyu's face and into her eyes, although it was already six o'clock in the morning, she was not sleepy at all.

She shook her fist in front of the computer screen.

Gao Zheng is taking one step at a time on the road of pursuing his dreams, and he is moving forward steadily.

Like a leader, hold a torch in front of you to clear the way and dispel the darkness and cold.

Just looking at this person's back, Feng Shiyu gave birth to courage and warmth from the bottom of his heart.

In this darkness, I am not alone.

……

"Haha! All right! All right! Guo Wei stroked his palms and laughed, looking very happy.

Zhao Ju got up from his chair and paced excitedly around the room, sincerely happy for what Brother Zheng had achieved.

Yang Wenlong sat on the sofa and didn't move, but a smile bloomed on his usually serious face, making his face full of folds look like a blooming flower.

At this time, I don't know how many people in China are as tireless as them, and they can't sleep at all when they are excited.

This is a champion born 108,000 miles away from them, and it stands to reason that it has little to do with them. But because of one person, one national flag, everyone is honored at this moment.
