Volume I, Chapter 34: The Red Army of Chinese Descent

The chapter name should be: Champions Cup (5)

……

"Liverpool youth team advance to the Champions League final"

"Chinese teenagers become the core of Liverpool's youth team"

Zinedine Zidane: Come to Real Madrid

Wilshere: Mark is Very Good

After Liverpool beat Arsenal to reach the final, local newspapers such as The Echo and Liverpool Sport finally focused on them.

Julie's report quickly set off a youth team craze at Liverpool, and fans will love any title, even a friendly winner.

Not to mention, having just experienced a first-team defeat in the Champions League final, fans are hungry for positive news from the Liverpool team at this time.

"Harry, look, the spirit of Shankly is coming," Sam said, pointing to the group of people who were walking by.

They were in the airport hall, preparing to go to Switzerland to cheer on the team, and of course, more importantly, to cheer on Mark.

In the past two days, Liverpool's local U18 has been very hot, and it seems that there have been years when the youth team has not had decent results and stars.

Waves of fans came in at the airport gate, all wearing team uniforms and holding cheering scarves, and some singing the team song.

The hall is noisy, and many passengers are a little baffled, what kind of game is it today?

Harry looked in the direction Sam pointed, "There are still a lot of people going, why are they all equipped with them?" He asked Tony again.

Tony patted the big suitcase, "Don't worry, it's all there"

"Hey, hello", Sam and the others turned to see a young man with black hair on his back, carrying a travel bag, greeting them with a smile on his face.

The lad continued: "Excuse me, are you going to Switzerland to watch the final of the Liverpool youth team?" ”

"Bingo, what, lad, are you too?" Sam laughed as he licked his belly.

He is the foreign sports editor of a certain wave network, usually responsible for collecting and editing some Premier League news, and there are several editors like him, each responsible for a stall.

Usually, they rarely report on the echelons of each team, because they are not interested in China, so they have been in Liverpool for more than three years, and very few people in China know that there is such a person.

The exposure of Mackin in Istanbul two years ago was like a wave in the sea, quickly drowned in the wave of celebration at that time, and was forgotten.

This time, Liverpool's local news finally caught the attention of their foreign editors, it turns out that Liverpool U18 still hides such a Chinese rising star?

"Yes, hello", the young man said enthusiastically, "I am Chinese, a journalist, this time to interview Mark in the Liverpool team, do you know him?" ”

"Haha, then you've got the right guy," Sam said, patting his belly, "no one knows him better than we do, and he's from China, Chinese his name is Mark...... Gallop? Clear? ”

He glanced back at Harry, who shrugged his shoulders and said he couldn't help.

"It's Mark Qin", the young man said with a smile, "My name is Li Wei, you can call me David Lee, if it's convenient for you, I want to interview you~"

"Convenient, haha", Sam put his arm around his shoulder, "I'll tell you, Mark likes my pizza the most, and my pizzeria is in ......"

……

"Boys, I have to say you played very well," Hugh enthused in a conference room at a star hotel in Zurich.

"You've made it to the final, good, I've heard from my friends that there will be a lot of Liverpool fans coming and cheering you on, are you happy?" , he asked aloud.

"Happy, haha!"

"That's right", he waved his hand vigorously, "boys, this may be the first final in many of your lives, only one game away, just one" He held out a finger, "We are the champions, champions, do you want it?" Answer me out loud! ”

"I want to!"

"Champion!"

"Kill Real Madrid!" , Valle shouted red-faced.

"Haha", Hugh laughed too, "yes, we haven't lost to them in the group stage, this time we're going to kill them and take home that damn championship trophy!" ”

"Take it home, take it home!"

He stretched out his hand and pressed it, waiting for the shouting to stop for a while, "So, you are not allowed to go anywhere during the afternoon and tomorrow day, prepare me for tomorrow night's finals!" Mark, forget your Zidane and beautiful girlfriend, if you don't play well tomorrow night, see how I clean you up! ”

"Haha", "Shh~"

"Mark, I'm not playing, I'll help you accompany your girlfriend"

"Get out~, you beasts!" , he said with a wry smile.

Then he turned to Hugh and said, "Don't worry, Hugh, we will be in the best shape tomorrow night, don't you say?" ”

"That's right, kill Real Madrid and win the championship!"

Competitive sports are full of magic between winning and losing, and within 90 minutes on the football field, you may experience various emotions such as happiness, loss, ecstasy, frustration, excitement, and grievance.

Makqin and their play, from no one cared about, to successive victories, and finally ushered in the climax and peak, and after the last 90 minutes of the game, triumph or loneliness.

"Hello audience friends, this is the Liverpool TV football highlights program, inserting a message, tomorrow night at half past seven, the TV station will broadcast the Champions Cup final live, by ......"

"Julie? Yes, I'm the editor-in-chief, are you still in Zurich? Okay, I'll arrange two more ......."

On the plane, Li Wei asked, "Uncle Sam, you said that Mark has always been the core of the youth team?" ……”

"Zidan, are you going to the finals?"

……

At 7:30 p.m., the stadium was brightly lit up, and this was the only match of the tournament scheduled for the evening.

More than 10,000 people were already seated in the stadium, even more than the two semi-finals combined.

"You'll never walk alone~",

"Hala, Madrid~"

Red and white confrontation, neutrality in the middle.

Li Wei and Sam got together with them, and also met what is said to be Mackqin's sister and future girlfriend.

"Good evening everyone, fans and friends, this is Walker, sitting next to me is Liverpool legend McManaman, today we will broadcast live......"

The opening advertising door is being erected in the stadium, and with the exposure of the final, the organizers will definitely take care of the sponsors, and the championship trophy will be placed on the platform at the exit of the passage.

Above the VIP are the rotating vice-chairmen of the G14, the deputy mayors of Zurich, Parry and Baldano.

It's all like the closing battle of a big game!

In the locker room, Hugh was making the final arrangements, "All the tactical deployments, we have talked about them in the past two days, and I will talk about the last point", he slapped his face.

"There are tens of thousands of people watching outside, there is a live broadcast on the sports station, many of you have not experienced this battle, who wants to have weak legs, you can say now, I will replace him down~", he pointed to the door and asked sharply.

"Who? Is anyone afraid? He asked again.

"No, there's no such thing as a seed!" , Mackin stood up and shouted loudly.

"That's right, Lao Tzu still has to play in the Champions League final, what is this", Valle immediately stood up and echoed.

"That's right, whoever wants to have weak legs is not a man~", Liverpool's players screamed.

"Okay, then go up and tell them we're Liverpool!"

"Liverpool must win!" , Mackin took the lead in shouting, wearing the captain's armband on his arm, and walked out of the locker room~

"Victory!" , more players raised their arms and shouted, tailgating ~

Standing in the passage, Mackin touched the armband on his arm, remembering yesterday's training.

"Mark, this is the armband, you are our captain tomorrow," Hobbs said as he put it on Mack's arm.

"Huh? Why? ”

"Hugh and we all talked about it, I was captain before I went to the reserves, and I came back to be captain because I'm older, but you're more like a captain than I am on the court," Hobbs said, looking at him.

"Mark, put it on", Hugh walked over and said, "You and Hobbs are going back to the reserve team at the beginning of the season, the U18s owe you a captain, and everyone is convinced of you~"

……

He looked ahead, ready to lead the team.

Real Madrid, how strong, champion, I want it!

The referee asked Mackin and the captain of Real Madrid whether they were ready at the entrance of the passage, and after receiving a positive answer, he walked towards the stage with the players on both sides~

Mackin walked past the right side of the championship trophy, holding the team flag in his hand and not squinting.

"Boom~", "Oh~", "Oh, oh, oh~"

“you will never walk alone~”,“hala madrid~”

"Friends from the audience, Liverpool's squad is in, oh? Today's captain is ~18 Mark? Not Hobbes? Volcker said in surprise.

Maika nodded and commented: "I came back to talk to Hugh, he likes Mark very much, and Mark is also the core of Liverpool, Hugh may have special ideas for this arrangement~"

Hugh just felt that he should give Mackin a perfect end to his youth team career, and if the game could be played to this extent, anyone with a discerning eye could see Mackin's role.

In the future, he may never represent the U18s again.

Volcker flipped through the information and introduced: "Mark has been ...... since he was 12 years old"

Mackin took his teammates to the field and stood in line on both sides of the advertising door with Real Madrid for the media to take pictures.

The deputy mayor of Switzerland, as the representative of the host country, said a few words, which probably meant to congratulate the success of the event, and when the advertising door was removed, Real Madrid, as the away team that drew lots, took the initiative to come over and shake hands.

Mackin vaguely saw the shadow of several Real Madrid youth stars in the future, but he was still too young, Carvajal, Morata......

The players dispersed, and the referee beckoned Mackin and Real Madrid's Ramaho to go over and flip a coin, and Mackin won, picking his teammate's half of the pitch and giving the kick-off to Real Madrid.

They won't fight for the ball this time~

"Boys", the referee said to them, "we have to cooperate well, you regulate the players, if you have any objections to the decision, you will come and talk to me, understand?" ”

The two nodded.

“OK! Good luck with our cooperation, you can now swap team flags, take a picture of the whole team, and get ready to start! ”

Liverpool TV Walker is still making the opening introduction, "Liverpool youth team starting line-up: goalkeeper Martin, defenders Torre, Elmer, Hobbs, Kalia, midfielders Alex, Lint, Mark, Danny, Deli, striker Valle, manager Hugh"

McManaman introduced Real Madrid's starters: "Goalkeeper Thomas, defenders Carvajal, Nacho, Ramajo, Gonzalez, midfielders Vazquez, Mosquera, Borja, Denis, forwards De Tomas, Morata, manager Torrell"

Walker continued: "This Liverpool formation is 451, Real Madrid is 442, the young players on both sides are already in position, and the game will start to ...... immediately"
