0277 Final's Appointment
On May 21, the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, the capital of Russia, was playing the final of the 07/08 Champions League.
There was some commotion in one of the stands at the stadium.
Just now, in the 21st minute of the game, Scholes was fouled when intercepting Makelele, and the two sides got into an argument, Scholes and Makelele both received yellow cards, Scholes was hit in the nose, but he continued to play after receiving treatment.
When the game was suspended, the director on the big screen was constantly sweeping the camera to the stands.
However, it is very coincidental that a man and a woman appeared in the camera, the man was wearing ordinary polo short sleeves, and the woman was wearing a red Manchester United shirt.
This was supposed to be just an ordinary couple of Manchester United fans, but when the camera showed these two people, a text prompt was actually given below.
βGeorge Leeβ
Obviously, George Li and Helen have not been staring at the director for a while, otherwise it is impossible for George Li to appear in the camera, and the following tips will be given.
"I told you not to wear a Manchester United shirt."
George Lee leaned into Helen's ear and said it, but the latter was clearly unimpressed.
Just now, after the camera showed the two of them, the Manchester United fans who found out about the situation around came over to hug and shake hands with George Lee several times, and even the fat boy on the side had hooked up with George Lee. This would never have been possible at any other time, after all, no manager would have cheered on a rival team.
"I'm just rooting for Manchester United." Helen glanced at her boyfriend and found that although the other party's face had not changed, she realized the problem she had just spoken, so she immediately corrected it, "At least today I support Manchester United." β
"I don't know what's so good about this old man, you admire him so much...... No, no, no, I don't have the idea of going to Manchester United for the time being, so I'm just coming over and watching the game. β
Obviously, the first half of George Lee is addressed to Helen, while the second half is addressed to the Manchester United fans on the side.
"Sir Alex Ferguson looks very kind, like a gracious old man."
"Do you think he's Santa Claus?"
"Perhaps." Helen pointed to the clothes on her body and said, "This one on me is the latest Manchester United shirt he sent me last Christmas. β
"This old man is really ......"
George Lee was about to complain about Ferguson, but the change on the field attracted his attention and stopped the conversation between him and Helen.
On the pitch, Manchester United's Brown broke away from nearby Frank Lampard after linking up with Paul Scholes on the right and crossed from the wing. Essien in the box made a marking error, missing the back post of the little Ronaldo, and the Portuguese jumped up to head the goal from 10 yards out.
Seeing Helen after the goal, she jumped up with excitement and started shouting along with the other Manchester United fans.
She was excited for nearly 3 minutes, and it wasn't until the game restarted that Helen gradually calmed down.
"That Manchester United's No.7 looks really good, he jumps so high." Helen said to George Lee.
'He's always been great and he's improving every season. George Lee whispered, both to Helen and to himself.
"What did you say?"
"It's nothing, I said that No. 7 is very powerful."
"Do you know why I have to come to this game with you?"
"Yes, you say." George Lee was also very curious, obviously he wanted to go to the European Cup with Helen this summer, but Helen offered to see the Champions League final with George Li.
For this competition, Helen also specially asked the school for a few days off.
'Did you know that every time you have an FA Cup, a UEFA Cup and a Europa League final, Sir Alex Ferguson comes in and sees you play. Every time, by coincidence, I could see him near my seat, and he was like a father who saw his son become a talent, with infinite pride in his eyes. β
"Really?" George Lee knows that Ferguson has been present in several cup finals. But he didn't know what Ferguson's state was on the sidelines, whether it was really what Helen said.
"I don't think Sir Alex Ferguson will be in this role for a couple of years, and he probably really wants you to take over."
"Huh." George Lee smiled and said, "You know, it's impossible. β
"So, I hope you can come and watch his final, because there aren't many opportunities like that. Maybe one day you can lead the team to the Champions League final and he will still be watching you from the stands. However, you don't get many opportunities to see him from the stands. β
"If I can lead the team to the Champions League final, I will definitely ......"
George Lee's words were once again interrupted by the ongoing match.
Drogba played the ball back in a scuffle in the box, and Ballack fired a shot from 25 yards before slicing it over the crossbar.
It was also Chelsea's first shot of the game, and it was a tight match between the two teams today, but there were few shots on target. Manchester United's first shot on goal was on 26 minutes and Chelsea's first shot was on 28 minutes, with the only difference being that United scored with the first shot and Chelsea did not.
"What did you just want to say?"
"I want to say that if I can win the Champions League, I'll call you into the stadium after the award and propose to you in front of all the people around the world."
"Wow~" Helen immediately covered her mouth, not believing that her boyfriend would say that.
As the relationship between the two deepened, it was almost time to talk about marriage, otherwise Helen's younger brother Charlotte Black would rush in front of his sister.
"I mean really." As if seeing that Helen was a little disbelieving, George Lee repeated it again.
"Maybe ......"
"Maybe what?" George Lee felt as if Helen didn't agree with this approach, as if she had something to say.
"Maybe, I think as long as you reach the Champions League final, in the end, whether you win the championship or not, you can propose to me."
"Huh?" This time, George Li looked at Helen with surprised eyes, and he waited for Helen to give him an answer.
Helen didn't let George Li wait, and directly said her own thoughts.
"If you can win the championship, that's the best, I won't refuse your invitation again, I can come to the stadium and accept your proposal."
As she spoke, Helen clasped her hands together and put them to her chest, as if she was imagining the situation.
After thinking for a moment, Helen continued: "But if I mean if you don't win the championship, I hope you can also come to a secluded corner of the stadium and propose to me after you have calmed down and explained to the players." β
"This ......"
As soon as George Li wanted to say something, he was immediately gagged by Helen with his hand and motioned to listen to Helen.
"That way, you'll still get the rewards on the day you lose the game, and that's probably the only thing I can do to comfort you."
Hearing Helen say this, George Li couldn't say anything for a while, he could only look at Helen in a daze.
The game was still exciting, but George Lee had lost interest in the game after that. More often than not, he looks at the field and is not like Helen, who sometimes shouts and covers his mouth as the game progresses.
It wasn't until the end of extra time that the two teams entered the most tense penalty shootout, and George Lee was refocusing on the field.
In the seventh round of the penalty shoot-out, after Van der Sar saved Nicolas Anelka's penalty, all the United fans began to celebrate wildly.
Helen arched George Lee beside her.
"It's time to go, Sir Alex Ferguson never looks at the awards you give after you win the championship."
Helen took the initiative to hold George Lee, and the two made their way through the crowd of celebrating Manchester United fans and began to exit the field first.
