Chapter 108: Paris Saint-Germain

On the second day of the final, AS Roma announced the resignation of Roma coach Roberto Mancini.

AS Roma thanked Roberto Mancini for his work and efforts over the past two seasons.

The news did not reveal what Mancini was out of class for.

However, everyone can guess that on the one hand, the 0-6 loss to Juventus at home is too controversial, which has attracted a lot of criticism from public opinion and put a lot of pressure on the Roma club.

On the other hand, it's because the grades are so poor.

Losing to Lazio in the Coppa Italia final, and losing so badly, someone has to be held accountable.

Mancini had to get out of class.

※※※

Chang Sheng did not say anything about Mancini's dismissal.

After the match against Roma, he didn't care about his opponent anymore.

The Coppa Italia is already history.

Now his attention is on the Champions League final.

The Italian final is just a week away from the Champions League final.

He announced that the team had entered a closed training camp, the training ground was closed to the outside world, no longer giving any media interviews, and the fans were turned away.

The media and the fans are used to it, and they are very cooperative.

Closed training camps are the hallmark of Lazio.

Whenever there is an important match, Lazio will conduct a closed training camp.

That means they take this game very seriously.

And it's like a killer feature, and it doesn't have to be used every time.

For example, when the competition for the league title with Juventus in the final stage of the league this year was at a fever pitch, Lazio did not close the training camp.

The Coppa Italia final is even less worthy of Lazio's closed training.

The Champions League final is a very important game and it is natural to take it seriously.

However, his seriousness is not good news for PSG.

Because past experience has proved that once Lazio starts to train in a closed camp, it is they who are going to make a big move.

A reporter ran to interview Manuel and asked him what he thought of Lazio's closed training camp.

Manuel said: "Lazio takes us seriously. It shows that we are an adversary to be taken seriously. In the same way, we will take them seriously. This is the best final in Europe. Our opponents are the strongest, but again, we are strong ourselves. In this game, Paris Saint-Germain will let the world know this team again! ”

Where does Manuel's self-confidence come from?

From the semi-finals.

Paris Saint-Germain knocked out the defending champions in the semi-finals, giving him and his players a boost of confidence.

Paris Saint-Germain's great blueprint is about to be drawn in his own hands!

Paris Saint-Germain have been in good form this season as well.

In Ligue 1, they have already won the league title, winning the league for the fourth consecutive season.

As long as they can win the Champions League final. They will be the double champions.

Ligue 1's dominant performance in the league and its excellent results in the Champions League are a source of confidence for Manuel.

Even Lazio's recent Coppa Italia final bloodbath did not shake Manuel's resolve.

Because all of Europe knows that the Roman derby exists in name only, and it is the most suspenseful intra-city derby. Roma lost to Lazio. It's normal to lose anything.

So this game has no reference value.

Neither Manuel nor his team were affected by this game.

※※※

This season's Champions League final is played at the Emirates Stadium at Premier League giants Arsenal.

After four days of training in Rome's Vermelo training base, Lazio ended their training camp and flew the team to London as a plane, where they checked into a hotel for final preparations.

The so-called final preparation is actually two training sessions to adapt to the venue, and the rest of the time Lazio directly borrowed the lawn of the hotel for training.

Paris Saint-Germain, on the other hand, arrived in London a week early. Tottenham Hotspur's training ground was rented for acclimatisation.

The main thing is to get used to the weather here.

In terms of preparation alone, it seems that Paris Saint-Germain are doing better than Lazio.

In his pre-match press conference, it was Chang Shengcai who broke his long-standing silence on Manuel.

"I'm not deaf, that's what Mr. Manuel said. I heard it all. At the same time, for fear of forgetting, I also squeezed on the small notebook......" As he spoke, Chang Sheng lit up his small notebook. It was densely written.

But what about Manuel's words that were recorded, or something else. Then it is unknown.

Chang Sheng put away his notebook and continued: "Every day at the beginning of training, I will read a piece of Mr. Manuel's rhetoric to my players to motivate them to train seriously. I said to them: 'If we don't work hard, we're going to get kicked by PSG!' So my players are very serious and I want to give a special thanks to Mr. Manuel. ”

Chang Sheng gently bowed his head.

But not a single journalist below believed his nonsense - yes, nonsense! In their opinion, winning is nonsense!

What thanks?

It's a mockery of Manuel's confident declaration......

From beginning to end, Chang Sheng didn't look down on Manuel, otherwise why didn't Chang Sheng respond to Manuel's words?

Chang Sheng has been mixed in European football for more than 20 years, and everyone knows him very well from the beginning of the complete ignorance of the current situation, and they are very clear about Chang Sheng's style of acting.

He never praises his opponents before a match, or says something very positive for them.

In that case, he tends to stay after the game, and basically he says it when he wins.

How can Manuel Hode make an exception for a permanent victory before the game?

If you say something like that before a game, it's basically the opposite.

※※※

Manuel is not a fool either, and he also feels the malice that comes from Chang Sheng.

He thinks he's been underestimated by Chang Sheng.

Of course, in terms of fame, achievements and strength, he admits that he is not as good as Chang Sheng.

But the outcome of a game is definitely not about these, but on the performance in this game.

He believes his performance in this match is enough for him to challenge for a permanent victory.

In the semi-finals, he defeated his perennial protégé Roberto Di Matteo. This gave him some insight into the characteristics of the tactical style of the winners.

At the same time, during the week, he worked day and night to win. Not only to study his game tactics, but also to study his personal character traits. He even read three of Chang Sheng's autobiographies.

So I learned what kind of person Chang Sheng is.

In response to the winning character and Lazio's effective tactics, he made the tactics of Paris Saint-Germain.

He believes his tactics are targeted and can keep Lazio at bay during the match.

In his pre-match press conference, Manuel showed no signs of weakness and fired back at his perennial disdain.

"It's a great honour to be able to use it as a training material for Lazio. I hope my help will make the finals a little more exciting! ”

It was said in such a loud tone that it seemed like the game would be meaningless if it weren't for him.

Manuel is so arrogant because he is in the coaching world. Chang Sheng is a Big Mac-like figure.

He has achieved more than 20 years in European football without any other precedent or since.

No manager has ever won so many titles when he is active.

Not even Ferguson did.

Just nine league titles can already blind many people's eyes.

In front of this achievement. Fifteen top-flight titles seem like a bit of a no-brainer.

At the same time, he is only 49 years old, which is still young for a manager, and he still has a long time to continue to improve his results.

Any manager will feel a lot of pressure when faced with a winning season.

That's the natural deterrent power of Changsheng.

Against such a king, a timid head coach. Just raised his hand and surrendered, and he didn't have the courage to fight at all.

Because they believe that the struggle is futile, that Lazio at its peak can sweep the entire world of football, and that there is no rival in the whole world who can match it. It is not for nothing that they are called "Cosmos Team".

Even though Lazio is now in decline, the prestige of winning is still there.

And looking at the performance of Lazio with a winning victory this season, it reminds people of Lazio's most glorious moments.

So Manuel had to keep cheering himself up. Boost your morale, that's the only way. Only then did he have the courage to fight to the death with constant victory.

Saying things that seem arrogant to others can boost your confidence, and at the same time, you can also corner yourself Peter - the big words have been released, and if you don't behave better, just wait to be laughed at!

※※※

UEFA also has high hopes for Paris Saint-Germain in this match.

The previous roadblocks were all eliminated by Lazio, but it was Paris Saint-Germain who made people shine, they killed the defending champion Chelsea!

Di Matteo is an important member of the winning family!

Does this mean that Paris Saint-Germain may have some experience in playing a winning team?

In short, UEFA is pinning their hopes on Paris Saint-Germain to stop Lazio in the final and break the dream of a treble.

Manuel was so confident before the game that UEFA was also pleased.

They believe that Manuel has the strength.

UEFA never seemed to think about whether they would trust the wrong person, even though they have made it countless times this season......

※※※

The final against Paris Saint-Germain is finally here.

The Estadio du Miril was packed an hour earlier, with fans from both sides and some neutral fans in the room.

Everyone started to wait eagerly for the game to start.

Paris Saint-Germain fans were also impressed by the confidence of their manager, looking forward to the historic moment of the club.

Lazio fans have mixed feelings, and they naturally came to cheer for Lazio.

But at the same time, it was also the last game they could see in Lazio.

No matter what the final result of this game is, after the game, Chang Sheng will have to say goodbye to them.

The joy of winning the championship and the sorrow of parting are intertwined, and it is impossible to tell whether it is joy or sorrow.
