Chapter 480: Champions League Champion!
At the time of the goal, Torres was stunned for a moment.
Maybe even the 'Golden Boy' himself didn't expect that he would be able to score a second goal in the final.
After confirming that the football was really in the Chelsea goal and that the score had been rewritten, Torres immediately lifted his shirt and ran excitedly towards his own half.
Other Manchester City players followed.
They chased Torres and cheered together!
"Torres! Torres! ”
"Unbelievable! Unbelievable! ”
"3-1, Manchester City reopened the score gap, Torres scored another goal, this is also the 'golden boy' in the Champions League, the twelfth goal scored by himself!"
"Since 2000, the top scorer in the Champions League Golden Boot has been Dutch goalscorer Ruud van Nistelrooy, who scored 12 goals for Manchester United in the Champions League in the 2002-2003 season. Now Fernando Torres has also scored his twelfth goal, which is a perfect number! ”
"In this attack, Torres deceived Terry with a pass feint and then scored the ball in the face of Terry's defence, and he showed great individual skill ......"
'But it's also important to talk about City's performances during this period, with a clear turnaround after Wan Sheng's substitutions, as they re-pressed Chelsea and scored again. Chelsea had just caught up with a goal and saw hope, but Torres's goal dashed that hope! ”
'Fernando Torres was undoubtedly very good, but he was a goalscorer, he only showed up in the most crucial moments, and he needed his team-mates to create chances.
"I dare to say that there are still many people who can't understand the adjustment of Wansheng, including myself, I don't think Sun can be better than Silva, but it is obvious that Manchester City's overall performance is better, Sun and Brummer partner in the back, so that the entire Manchester City midfield, both offensive and defensive active, this is the overall ability of a good manager."
"Maybe for a team, the individual ability of the players is not everything, the team as a whole is more important."
"Sun is not as good as Silva is recognized, but Sun also has his own unique ability, he is an important part of Manchester City's tactics, and with his involvement, Manchester City as a whole are more active."
"Football is a team sport and the performance of the whole team is more important than the individual. In this game, Wan Sheng taught a good lesson to the head coaches who rely on stars to play...... Maybe this game will become a classic, and there will definitely be a lot of media and football professionals to study the role of Sun in replacing Silva......"
"But no matter what, Wansheng's substitution was a success! A substitution adjustment to liven up the whole team! ”
Listening to these words touting Wan Sheng, it's hard to imagine that he was still saying before, "Sun appeared? Could it be that Sun and Wansheng are both Chinese? ”
So the media is a two-faced figure.
If Wansheng's substitution adjustment has no effect, they will definitely use various methods to criticize this adjustment, and then put all kinds of charges on Wansheng's head, and now that the adjustment has an effect, they will immediately switch camps and continue to give praise to Wansheng.
Less than 10 minutes earlier, Chelsea were on the back of the net to find the back of the net again.
Now Manchester City have breached the Chelsea goal again!
Chelsea fans fell silent at the sight of Fernando Torres' goal, having no idea that the next goal would belong to Manchester City.
On the contrary, Manchester City fans have already started to revel!
Maybe the goal process is no longer important to them, what matters is the score - 3-1!
With around ten minutes left in the game, City reopened the gap.
What this means, anyone knows – no miraculous surprises, Manchester City will beat Chelsea in 10 minutes to win this season's Champions League!
――――
Chelsea are in crisis.
Needless to say, the loss and frustration in their hearts were faced with the score gap that was opened up again, and when the game restarted, they also played very depressed.
According to the routine of a normal football game, whenever it comes to the last time of the game, the lagging side will strengthen the attack to try to equalize the score, and the leading side does not want to fight with the opponent, and most of them will choose to defend.
But City didn't do that.
After the game resumed, Manchester City continued to play possession, fighting Chelsea for control of the midfield, and repeatedly passed the ball into dangerous areas to threaten Chelsea's goal.
Chelsea's overall physical fitness is a little unable to keep up, losing in the midfield scramble, coupled with the lack of possession of Manchester City, they can't attack if they want to, they are afraid of losing at the back, and the defense is ...... It's tantamount to admitting defeat!
So Chelsea played a bit of a mess.
Head coach Grant was anxious and he was expecting an equaliser as Chelsea have had a number of late-game equalisers so far this season.
Grant hopes this will be one of those games as well......
But today, the Israeli's luck was defeated by Manchester City's strength, and no matter how lucky he was, he couldn't change Chelsea's passive situation, and after Manchester City reopened the score gap, Chelsea played even more chaotic, so they became very passive in attack and defense.
Manchester City don't care about Chelsea's bad situation.
Wan Sheng has said to the players many times, "You can't be merciful in the game, you can score more goals, so that you can kill the miracle!" ”
"What we need is victory, and victory is enough!"
So the Manchester City players continued to attack the Chelsea half with the momentum of the freshly scored.
By this time, some media outlets felt that Manchester City were being bullied.
Everyone knows that if the game is played like this, Manchester City will definitely win, but if you win, you will win, how can you give Chelsea a little face "at home", right?
The game is almost over, and if you attack so fiercely, you don't give your opponent face at all.
'Manchester City didn't seem to want to let Chelsea go after opening up the scoreline, they continued to attack, as if they wanted to continue to score......
'For Manchester City, 2-1, 3-1, or even higher, it doesn't really mean much, they just need to win. Now City are constantly showing off their cooperation, as if the game is their own training ground...... Chelsea were humiliated by the attack......
But obviously, Manchester City doesn't care about Chelsea's face, the game is to win, and victory requires goals!
While many people are complaining about Chelsea, Chelsea can only continue to be sad.
on the playing field.
Chelsea were in a bit of a mess with Manchester City's attack, and they couldn't keep up with the pace of Man City, so their goal became very threatening.
In the 88th minute of the game, Morris suddenly crossed and the Chelsea back line completely collapsed!
Football goes between Lampard and Ballack!
That's Frank Lampard!
That's Barak!
The two were the defenders at the edge of the Chelsea penalty area, and a pass passed through two people, and the Chelsea line of the penalty area was directly broken.
On the other side, Ivan Crewe stepped forward and received a pass.
He dribbled into the box!
"Ivan Crewe!"
John Terry defended Torres, Carvalho added Maurice up front, and Essien could not catch up as a full-back, only to watch Ivan Crewe face goalkeeper Petr Cech.
Facing the onrushing Cech, Ivan Crewe opted to shoot into the far corner.
Petr Cech quickly fell to the ground to make a save, his fingertips touching the ball but failing to stop it from continuing to sprint, and the moment it sprinted past the goal, it plunged Chelsea into complete despair.
“Goooooooooooal!!!”
"Ivan Crewe!!"
In the roar of the commentator, the score on the sidelines has been rewritten, "4 to 1!" Manchester City wins! ”
"It was the goal that ended the suspense! Ivan Crewe, who scored the fourth goal for Manchester City! With just over a minute left in the game, Chelsea won't have time to tie even with stoppage time! ”
"What an unexpected result!"
'Before the game, anyone would have thought that the final would be a big game, but the score was unexpected, 4-1, and there are very few big scores in Champions League finals, while Manchester City scored a full four goals!'
'Chelsea lost! Grant is defeated! He can't 'rely on luck' to move the team forward anymore......"
'It was a Champions League final in Moscow, which many thought was Chelsea's home stadium and they lost to Manchester City by a big margin at home. I don't know what Mr. Abramovich will think at the moment, but Chelsea's defeat is already doomed......"
Following the narrator's words, the camera camera pointed to the side of the rostrum, only to see that Abramovich and his girlfriend Zhukova, who were originally sitting there, had disappeared.
"Mr. Abramovich, probably he didn't want to see Chelsea lose, I guess he didn't expect to lead Chelsea to Moscow to participate in the Champions League final, but the result was so miserable......"
――――
After scoring the goal, Ivan Crewe excitedly rushed to the sidelines, and then hugged Wan Sheng.
The other players followed, and the Manchester City dugout was in chaos.
There is not much time left before the end of the game, Manchester City are already three goals ahead of Chelsea, and everyone in the Manchester City team, from top to bottom, can breathe a long breath.
After half a minute of celebration, the City players returned to the pitch ready to restart.
At this time, the only thing that could be heard over the Luzhniki Stadium was the cheers and singing of Manchester City fans.
Manchester City fans can't wait!
Manchester City fans have already started to celebrate the title, and the security of the Champions League final is still very strict, and they can't celebrate with fireworks like they did at the Manchester stadium, they can only express their excitement with songs.
At the same time, the cheers for the championship were also mixed with some shouts for Wansheng, "Wansheng, Manchester City needs you!" ”
"Stay! Stay in Manchester! ”
"This is your home, and we need your guidance!"
“……”
Many Manchester City fans shouted along, in three seasons, Wansheng has completely conquered the fans with one championship after another, and in the hearts of many fans, even a Champions League trophy is not worth the importance of Wansheng in the team.
The shouts of the fans could also be heard in the dugout.
Diamares couldn't help but turn his head to look at Wan Sheng, but Wan Sheng didn't say anything, he just stood on the sidelines and watched the game, as if he was completely unaffected by the fans' words.
But in fact, how could Wan Sheng not feel it?
Derby County was his starting point, but he chose to leave because of a conflict with the club president, and he had a lot of reluctance at the time.
Now it's Manchester City.
In the three seasons of Manchester City, Wan Sheng left a deep memory, not to mention leading the team to win one championship after another, the city and fans also left him with deep memories.
But choose to stay?
No.
Everywhere there will be memories, experiences, catch-ups, and he also has his own life.
Now that he has decided to leave, he will not change because of anything.
――――
On the podium, it was still Sinal who came to watch the game on behalf of Manchester City, and he and Roman Abramovich sat opposite each other.
Although Sinal is not the president of the club, he represents Thaksin and sits in the chairmanship.
The game was not over yet, and some of the big names sitting on the rostrum began to congratulate Sinal, "Congratulations on playing a wonderful game!" ”
"Congratulations on your Champions League winners!"
"Congratulations, Mr. Sinal, and congratulations to the entire Manchester City club for winning the first Champions League trophy in the club's history!"
“……”
Sinal shook hands with the bigwigs and thanked them for congratulating the club.
But in fact, Sinar felt very uncomfortable.
Because he's leaving.
No one knows the situation of Manchester City FC better than Sinal, and Thaksin has decided to sell his stake in Manchester City, so he will definitely leave as Thaksin's representative.
Is it going back to Thailand, or where are you going?
Sinal doesn't know where his future holds, but it's certain that he won't be staying at Manchester City.
What is it like to see the team win the Champions League and then leave yourself?
This point is different from Sinar and Wansheng.
Wan Sheng is willing to leave, he wants to pursue his own life, or his own football path, and Sinal wants to stay but it is simply impossible, not to talk about the issue of Thaksin's consortium, and it is impossible for the new club chairman to allow the spokesperson of the former chairman to stay at the club.
At this time, Sinal couldn't help but look at Wan Sheng on the field, he knew that Wan Sheng's contract with Manchester City had expired.
So, what does this young Chinese plan?
――――
The competition is in the final stages.
In the final stoppage time, neither Manchester City nor Chelsea had much interest in continuing the game.
Anyone who faces the Champions League final doesn't want to give up, but the situation of falling behind by three goals is completely helpless, even if you work hard to score a goal in half a day, what's the point?
So neither side had much energy to kill time.
As soon as the referee saw this situation, he decisively blew the whistle for the end of the game in two minutes of stoppage time!
At that moment, all the commentators sent out their blessings, "Congratulations to Manchester City!" They beat Chelsea 4-1 to win the 2007-2008 Champions League trophy! ”
A British commentator also mentioned Manchester City's results, and said with admiration, "This is the end of the season, Manchester City have achieved brilliant and perfect results, they have won the Community Shield, League Cup, FA Cup, League and now the Champions League, they have won all the titles that English teams can win!" ”
"Now at this moment, they have reached the pinnacle of glory! As for whether the glory will continue in the future, we can only wait and see, but this season belongs to Manchester City, and this night belongs to Manchester City completely! ”
While the commentators continued to admire, Manchester City coaches, substitutes and staff all rushed into the stadium, they hugged each other excitedly, yelled at the sky, and posed all kinds of excited movements to vent their emotions, and some players even knelt down excitedly.
Wan Sheng was surrounded by a crowd, but he seemed calm.
It was his first Champions League win, but he was ready to win it long before the game started, and he worked hard for it in one season, and now it seems like a matter of course to win the title.
Wan Sheng celebrated with the others, but only celebrated, not as excited as he appeared.
A lot of people, including the players, assistant coaches and club staff, came to hug him, and he opened his arms and hugged everyone, falling into the joy of celebration, but his expression and movements were calm.
Now, he's happy for the Champions League title, but he's not so excited as to exaggerate.
So when he saw a group of people surrounding him and wanted to pick him up and throw him into the sky, Wan Sheng chose to ...... Run away.
"No, I don't accept this way of celebrating!"
Wan Sheng's arm was very strong and he ran very fast, Morris and Carlos couldn't stop him together, Manchester City's celebration was a mess, but the manager stood far away.
However, Wansheng was immediately surrounded by a group of other people.
That's a media reporter.
The media reporters had already rushed to the court, and when they saw Wan Sheng running over, they had a feeling of 'target sent to the door', so they surrounded Wan Sheng in the middle and began to ask all kinds of questions.
Although he was mentally prepared to win the championship, Wan Sheng was still in a very good mood to win the championship, he was interviewed and also talked about the game, "Our players played very well, and I am very happy to win the championship. ”
"It was a successful season, we won everything we could and we achieved our pre-season goals!"
"I remember in the summer, I told the players that we were aiming for all the titles, and in the media, I also stressed a lot of people, and a lot of people didn't believe it at the time, but now it's ...... Hey. ”
Speaking of this, Wan Sheng curled the corners of his mouth.
Didn't you all believe it when you said it before? How about now? Lao Tzu led the team to do it!
Next time, you have to remember the lesson, take Lao Tzu's words seriously, don't always take it seriously!
Lao Tzu has always said that he will do it! (To be continued.) )
