Florentino sat on the rostrum of the Stadium of Light, watching Real Madrid being slaughtered by Tottenham Hotspur again and again on the pitch without a fight, and he was always bruised and powerless.

There is no doubt that he was successful as a club operator, bringing Real Madrid to one of the most profitable teams in football today, second only to Tottenham Hotspur, who moved into a new stadium in the summer of '13, and after signing several new contracts for Real Madrid, they are only a little behind Tottenham Hotspur in terms of income.

Whether it was the debt-ridden Real Madrid team at the beginning of the twentieth century, or the Real Madrid that was messed up by Calderón before the O9 year, although they have achieved better results at the competitive level, they are extremely bad at the team management, and even make Real Madrid's golden sign a loss of face.

So Florentino's credo has always been simple, make the most money, bring in the best superstars, and play the most beautiful football.

It stands to reason that there is no conflict or contradiction in such an idea, because with the most money, you can bring in the best stars, and with a group of outstanding stars, you will naturally be able to play the most beautiful football.

But since O9 returned to the presidency of Real Madrid, Florentino felt that it was not going well, at first he thought that Barcelona was too strong, causing Real Madrid to be beaten passively everywhere, but gradually, when Barcelona got old, he gradually appeared, Real Madrid is still like that.

Of course, if it were for other teams, the Copa del Rey champion and the Champions League final, this heavy report card was enough to win the affirmation of countless fans, but for Real Madrid, which has always prided itself on being high and proud of being a privileged aristocrat in football, this does not mean success.

Although the La Liga championship is out of the hands of Barcelona, it has fallen into the hands of Atletico Madrid, a sworn rival in the same city, and although the Champions League has reached the final, it was slaughtered by Tottenham Hotspur O4 in the final, no matter which one it is, it is unacceptable and tolerated by Real Madrid.

Fire Ancelotti?

Florentino didn't dare to mention this idea, even if Zidane is now sitting in the coach's seat as Ancelotti's assistant, but looking at today's football, apart from Ancelotti, who is more than Ancelotti who is willing to take over Real Madrid?

Zinedine Zidane?

At least in the short term, Zidane does not have the strength and ability to take over Real Madrid, and letting him come out too early, especially taking over a team like Real Madrid too early, will only harm Zidane in the end, and this smart, French superstar who knew how to retire bravely back then, how could he come out and take over in this environment?

Thinking of Zidane, Florentino thought of Ye Qiu.

Once, Zidane and Ye Qiu attended an Adidas event at the same time, and later Zidane returned to Madrid to talk to Florentino, and he asked Ye Qiu a question, that is, where is the biggest problem of Real Madrid now.

"When you don't think of yourself as a high aristocrat, when you see yourself as an ordinary and pragmatic football club again, there is no problem you can't solve"

Florentino was very touched by these words, but there are some things that once they have started, there is no turning back, and this is the case with Real Madrid today.

But with some ideas, Florentino is also actively adjusting his strategy, such as the introduction of superstar Cavani in 13 years, but also the introduction of Isco, Ilia Ramendi and other local strength rookies to lay the foundation for the future of Real Madrid, which is also a pragmatic attitude.

It's just that, whether it is from the team's exhibition strategy or from the voices and requirements of internal fans and members, continuing to adhere to the superstar strategy will be Real Madrid's transfer policy for a long time to come, and it will not change

Just as Florentino was thinking, he suddenly heard a thunderous cheer from the stands of the Stadium of Light, and even many shouts sounded around him, especially when he was sitting not far from him, Tottenham Hotspur executive Peter Nien and Rohn Gurley, who were sitting not far from him, they were so excited that they rushed out of their seats, and they raised their arms over there, looking very excited and excited.

"What's going on?" Florentino's eyelids jumped, his heart twitched, and he turned his head sideways to look at the big screen on the pitch, which was now a live broadcast of several Tottenham Hotspur players excitedly rushing out of the pitch and celebrating along the stands.

Needless to say, another goal was scored, and it was already the fifth

Florentino shifted his gaze to the scoreboard, seventy-nine minutes, the O number was so shocking that even Florentino, who had always seemed to be a successful person, couldn't help but want to scold his mother, but he finally held back and shifted his gaze to the big screen again.

At this time, the screen above the stands was replaying the whole process of the goal just now, substitute Neymar received a pass from Ramsey on the left side, cut into the box from the left side, passed Carvajal, Xavi Lolonso, Pepe and Ramos in one go, and finally shot with his right foot near the penalty spot to break through Casillas's goal.

Florentino was so incredulous at such a goal that he couldn't even figure out why four people could not defend one person. Is there something wrong with their abilities? Or are they not concentrating at all and are not concentrating on the game?

There is no doubt that he is very, very sure that the hearts of the Real Madrid players have been broken by Tottenham Hotspur

Ye Qiu stood on the sidelines, Neymar and other players rushed to the sidelines to celebrate, and then they all passed by the home team's coach's bench, high-fived Ye Qiu to celebrate, and then returned to the court one by one.

o It can be said that the victory of Tottenham Hotspur is a certainty

Real Madrid started the second half, after being attacked by Tottenham Hotspur and scoring a fourth goal, the team's morale has been weakened to the bottom, even if Ancelotti finally replaced Khedira and replaced Isco, making a tenacious gesture of letting go, but the midfield was suppressed, making it difficult for Real Madrid to play an effective attack.

Ye Qiu has always been convinced that Real Madrid, especially Florentino's Real Madrid, is a deformed team full of privileges, prides itself on being a superior aristocrat, which in itself is a kind of privilege for himself, and the advantages of the membership system have laid this privilege, and the superstars in the team also have privileges in the dressing room and on the pitch.

The two privileges can be said to be interdependent, so in a team like this, there is never a real wholeness to speak of.

If there is privilege, how can there be a whole?

Therefore, from the very beginning, in the face of Real Madrid, Ye Qiu's strategy was to split and cut, separating Real Madrid's privileged faction from the non-privileged faction, that is, strongly suppressing the midfield and isolating the front trident, this targeted style of play really brought huge trouble to Real Madrid, and even they failed to find an effective solution to the problem throughout the game.

After Ye Qiu scored the fifth goal after Neymar scored the fifth goal after passing four players in a row, he has been standing on the sidelines in the manager's command area, he silently watches the game, silently counts the time, occasionally turns around and sweeps the fans in the stands, or, he will turn his head sideways, look at the bench, look at the coach's box.

Everything was so familiar to him, he had lived like this for many years, but now, he had to tell himself that he was going to leave this environment.

Maybe he'll be in the stands in the future, but that feeling, that kind of vision, is completely different from standing in front of the dugout.

The reins of the game were handed over to Mauro Tasotti and after a five-goal lead, Real Madrid had lost the fighting spirit and were more desperate to defend, while Tottenham Hotspur made targeted substitutions in order to ensure that the situation of the game dragged out until the end of the game.

Therefore, after entering the 80th minute, Mauro Tasotti used up the remaining two substitutions, one was to replace Ramsey with Pogba, the other was to replace Ribery with Hazzard, plus to replace Messi with Neymar, Tottenham Hotspur's substitutions are still continuing to strengthen the attacking threat in the midfield.

As the minutes ticked by, some of the players on the pitch were trying to attack, some were waiting for the game to end, and some were still on the defensive.

"With less than five minutes left in the game, there is basically no suspense"

"Tottenham Hotspur beat Real Madrid by a huge lead to win the Champions League this season, and this is Tottenham's fourth trophy of the season after the League Cup, the English Championship and the FA Cup, creating the first quadruple in the history of English and European football"

"Let's congratulate Tottenham Hotspur in advance and all Tottenham Hotspur fans in advance"

"It's a night to remember, and it's a night to remember for all Tottenham Hotspur fans, as tonight their side won an unprecedented quadruple and a treble in the Champions League, and their legendary coach Ye Qiu will announce his retirement after tonight's game."

"It may have been a mixed night for all Tottenham Hotspur fans, but we have every reason to believe that Ye Qiu has left such a strong squad for his successor, and I believe that Tottenham Hotspur's glory will not be a flash in the pan, and I believe that under the leadership of Mauro Tasotti, Tottenham Hotspur will continue to remain strong and dominant."

When the on-site commentator shouted loudly, all the Tottenham Hotspur fans at the scene also cheered, tens of thousands of fans were chanting Ye Qiu's name, and even countless people were crying bitterly.

As the game time approached, the time to say goodbye was getting closer and closer, but their mood was more and more reluctant, because they knew that after tonight, it would never be Ye Qiu who stood in the team's head coach's seat, and there would never be Ye Qiu again.

Eight years have passed, and in these eight years, they have experienced the trough of the team together, survived the hardships together, experienced the joy of glory together, and tasted the sourness of defeat together.

They seem to be close comrades-in-arms, but after tonight, they will lose this comrade, which is difficult for many Tottenham Hotspur fans to accept, even if they know in their hearts that Mauro Tasotti is capable enough to take over Tottenham Hotspur, but they still want Ye Qiu to stay.

In eight years, Ye Qiu spent a full eight years to bring Tottenham Hotspur from a second-rate team to the most prestigious top giants in European football today; It has also taken eight years to write his glorious legend in Tottenham Hotspur, in the English League, in European football, and in the history of football around the world.

After tonight, Ye Qiu retired, and there has been no legend in football since then

Amid a shout from the on-site commentator, the Dutch referee finally blew the whistle for the end of the game.

At this moment, the players of Real Madrid, whose morale has been exhausted and their physical strength has been exhausted, fell on the pitch one by one, while the players of Tottenham Hotspur were running wild on the pitch one by one.

The staff on the sidelines and the players on the bench rushed into the stadium one by one as if they were crazy, celebrating unscrupulously, cheering and roaring wildly, venting the excitement and excitement of the team after winning the championship.

Ye Qiu stood in place, silently, just standing, without even moving his fingers.

It's over

For him, from '99 to now, for 15 years, he has lived almost all the time with football, which has brought him almost everything, but now, he has to leave the position of manager.

But he knows very, very well that he can't leave football, he just changes the way he wants to do it, to continue to love his football and to continue to enjoy his football.

Perhaps, he will no longer coach, or he will no longer care about everything in the team, but he will still love football as madly as always, because his life is destined to be inseparable from football.

"Congratulations, Ye Qiu" Ancelotti slowly walked over from the away team's coach's seat.

Ye Qiu was surprised from the leng god, and hurriedly stretched out his hands, "Thank you, I'm really sorry, I'm a little distracted"

Originally, he was the victor, and he should have walked over to greet Ancelotti, but now the situation is the other way around.

"It's okay" Ancelotti smiled with relief, he is not Mourinho's kind of personality who likes to be careful, "How is it?" Are you really going to leave like this?

Ye Qiu shrugged his shoulders and swept around the Tottenham Hotspur players and staff who were already crazy on the field, he smiled and nodded: "I should have left a long time ago, it's just that I can't let go"

"Yes," Ancelotti sighed, full of embarrassment, "football is like this"

Ye Qiu looked at Ancelotti, to be honest, even if Ye Qiu felt that Real Madrid was very unbalanced now, in fact, he knew very well that Ancelotti still did a lot of work in order to integrate Real Madrid, especially in attack.

Real Madrid has been able to get to where it is this season, although there is a certain element of luck, but Ancelotti's coaching ability and level are also crucial, which can be seen from Real Madrid's attack.

As many people have said, Ancelotti's offensive routine is almost exactly the same as his predecessor, that is, fast strikes, which is the core combat power of Real Madrid, but there is no serious analysis, behind this core combat ability, Ancelotti has made many refinements in the midfield and passing, as well as the offensive line.

Carlo Ancelotti is definitely one of the few managers in today's football who pursues the details to the maximum extent at the tactical level, which is the advantage of Italian managers, but many Italian managers focus more on defense, while Ancelotti puts considerable energy into attacking and organizing the ball, as well as on the defensive level.

Mauro Tassotti is also a manager of this type, so Ye Qiu is convinced that Mauro Tassotti will bring some changes to Tottenham Hotspur that are not quite the same as in the past few years, and some changes that he simply cannot bring.

After all, Ye Qiu is Ye Qiu, and Mauro O Tasoti is Mauro Tasoti.

"Anyway, I'm happy that I can sit in the stands in the future and I'm sure it's going to be a different feeling there"

Ancelotti agrees with Ye Qiu's remarks, being a fan, especially a simple fan, it will always be a very pleasing thing.

But Ye Qiu's next sentence provoked again.

"However, I am convinced of one thing, the next time we meet Tottenham Hotspur, you will still lose because we have Mauro Tassoti

This is Tottenham Hotspur, and this is what Ye Qiu is.

After Ancelotti listened, he smiled and said, "Then let's see", and then, he returned to the coach's seat of Real Madrid, he felt that the most important thing now was not to quarrel with Ye Qiu, because that no longer made any sense, and the most important thing for him now was to keep the team's breath.

Losing is not necessarily a bad thing, the most important thing is to understand why and how you lost.

After Ye Qiu sent Ancelotti away, he originally wanted to be alone, but he appeared, and all the Tottenham Hotspur players who were originally celebrating on the pitch rushed to the home team's coach's seat at this time, and they all rushed towards Ye Qiu one by one, and their eyes couldn't wait to swallow Ye Qiu's stomach.

Taken aback by the players' battle, Ye Qiu was soon surrounded by them.

I don't know who coaxed it, and I don't know who came up with the idea, Ye Qiu was carried up by them like this.

At this time, the Tottenham Hotspur fans in the stands were also standing in unison, and even the vast majority of Real Madrid and neutral fans also stood up, shouting Ye Qiu in unison.

Perhaps, they are using this way to express their admiration for Ye Qiu, they are using applause and cheers to tell Ye Qiu that he has completely conquered everyone present, conquered the entire European football world, and conquered fans all over the world.

Perhaps, at this moment, in the world, among the hundreds of millions of fans watching the live broadcast, countless people are also cheering, applauding, and crying reluctantly like the fans on the spot.

In the stands, Huang Chu and Eliza Moon took Ye Qiu's two children, Huang Rong and Ye Chen, they also stood up like all the fans, especially the two children, who were shouting for their father excitedly, but they were drowned out by the shouts of the fans.

At this moment, they were proud and proud of Ye Qiu

On this night, countless people felt reluctant, regretful, and sad for Ye Qiu's departure

This night, Ye Qiu personally drew a successful end to his legend

But after that night, the Tottenham saga continues

It's just that many, many years later, countless fans around the world still clearly remember that on May 14, this night in Lisbon, Portugal, the whole world was happy, sad and sad for a Chinese named Ye Qiu
