Hampton Park.

It is also the home of the Scottish national team, a modern circular stadium with a capacity of 48,000 people, which is full today, and scalpers have sold tickets for more than 3,000 euros, but they are not available.

The stadium was half Cologne fans and half Sevilla fans.

The German flag, the Spanish flag and the Scottish flag make up the colours of the stadium and everyone is looking forward to the final.

The UEFA Cup final is a warm-up to the Champions League final in a week and the most important competition of the season under UEFA.

In the VIP seat, a group of newly appointed UEFA bigwigs are full of ambition, and they hope that the next 10 years of European football can be more brilliant.

Because of the pre-match draw, Cologne drew the away team, so Cologne will wear the red jersey in this game, while Sevilla can wear the white home team.

In the visiting dressing room, the Cologne players were nervous, and for most of them, it was the highest stage of their lives.

Cups are not the same as leagues.

The cup is a winner-or-loser, there is no chance to save, and even a goal is conceded and it is over.

That's why Liverpool is particularly strong in the cup, but not in the league, because in the final analysis, the league and the cup are completely different things.

Schultz kept bouncing the ball, hoping to relax in this way.

"Damn, how muscles are disobedient."

"I'm not usually like that."

Stevens noticed the nervousness of the team members and called Tang Zhenglong aside.

"Don, you know I've never begged you."

"Boss, this is the fourth time you've begged me."

“……”

The black lines on Stevens' forehead were almost on the ground.

"Well, I'm begging you for the fifth time, put on a show for everyone to make the locker room feel more relaxed."

"Show?"

Tang Zhenglong was dumbfounded.

"Boss, I'm not from the circus, I'm a football star."

Stevens Khan said: "What happened in the locker room, I don't know about it outside, I will keep it a secret." ”

Tang Zhenglong seriously doubted this.

"Boss, I'll do my best, but I don't show because I won't."

"Okay, Don, it's up to you, I know you're in the best frame of mind, and you need to infect your teammates at this time."

Yes, Stevens used the German word contagion, and Tang Zhenglong thought it was so strange, or so low.

Tang Zhenglong went over and patted Schultz, "Mattia, I want to ask you something." ”

"What?"

"Do you ever feel that the coffee you drink in the Cologne lounge occasionally smells a little weird?"

When Tang Zhenglong mentioned this, Schultz remembered that it seemed like this.

"Seems like so."

"Did you know that there was a gardener named Subott at the Cologne club?"

"Yes, bald, help us take care of the flowers and plants."

"Then did you know that there is a chemical fertilizer called urea?"

Schultz shook his head, "I don't know. ”

"Matthias, I'm going to confess to you, in fact, I occasionally steal a little urea from Subote and add it to your coffee."

“……”

Schultz's face turned green.

"Tang Zhenglong! You're kidding, or I'll fight and you won't be able to make it to the finals. ”

Tang Zhenglong Khan said: "I mean really. ”

"Bastard, why are you doing that!!"

"I wanted to know what urea tasted like, but I couldn't try it myself, so I ......."

Schultz decided that even if he didn't participate in the finals, he would have to settle accounts with Tang Zhenglong.

"Don ...... Correct...... Dragons, go to death!! ”

Teammates who had already laughed and smoked came over to persuade them to fight.

"Stop making a fuss."

"Let go of me, I want revenge."

"By the way, Mattia, what does urea taste like?"

"You'll find out if you eat it yourself."

At this time, someone asked, "Don, are you going to play tricks on us, I seem to remember one time when my coffee was bitter." ”

Tang Zhenglong's face darkened, "Why don't you say that the coffee you drink is very dark." ”

Hahaha.

There was another burst of laughter in the locker room.

Stevens laughed too.

"Hey, boss, why are you sitting on the ground?"

"It's funny."

"Hahaha."

"Boss, in fact, I have one more thing to confess to you."

"What?"

"Once I ate a sandwich and accidentally dropped a piece of ham on the floor, so I swapped it with you."

“……”

The smile on Stevens' face suddenly froze, and he was particularly happy.

"Don, you must be joking, right?"

"No, I don't really like to eat things that fall on the ground, so I ......"

Stevens was furious, "Could it be that there are still people who like to eat things that fall on the ground?" ”

"I'm going to remove Tang Zhenglong."

Assistant coach Khan said: "It's late, the list has been submitted. ”

I saw the team members laughing one by one.

"I remembered, I saw it that time."

"It turns out that the sandwich was eaten by the boss."

Stevens wanted to vomit, how dirty the floor of the lounge was, mixed with the scent of lawn dirt, plus it was a Turkish aunt who cleaned up, and God knows what she did with those floors.

"Tang, if you pay me for my medical expenses, I will live 10 years less."

"Hahaha."

The atmosphere in the dressing room was lively, and everyone was not nervous, and then there was a knock on the door, it was UEFA staff.

"Good luck guys, it's time to get in."

Stevens immediately became serious.

"Let's fight, especially Tang Zhenglong."

"Why Tang Zhenglong in particular?"

"Because you're the top scorer in the UEFA Cup, we rely on you to win."

Tang Zhenglong doesn't like this kind of encouragement without bonuses the most, it's boring, if Stevens says that if you win, the team will award you 1 million, then Tang Zhenglong will be a lot happier.

******

In the Sevilla dressing room, Juan de Ramos looked confident as the defending champions swept past Middlesbrough last year, beating them to an opponent they didn't even know their mother.

So the plot of La Juande is still the same this year, it's just a matter of how many goals are scored.

A four-goal sweep like last year should be impossible, but two goals are still solid.

"My boys, I know you've booked a place to go on vacation, and so am I, we're still one game away."

The players also laughed, winning the championship is another good season, and it is time to find a picturesque place to reward yourself.

"Boss, I've heard that Thailand is good." Paulson smiled, with a "you know" expression.

Everyone understands and laughs.

Juander shook his finger: "I'm a good man." ”

Ha ha.

"Of course, if you're willing to invite me to play, I won't refuse."

Alves smiled, "Boss, you should invite us to play." ”

Hahaha.
