Chapter 226: There's a good show to watch (the third update, ask for a monthly pass!) )
Chen's surprising pass set up Cassano for the game-winning goal as Napoli gave a 1-0 lead away to Manchester United.
The goal sent United to hell, as evidenced by Ferguson's trembling left hand.
Manchester United fans and supporters felt heartache and regret for the old man because of Ferguson's trembling left hand. The 70-year-old has dedicated 25 years of his life to Manchester United, and his quest for honour has never waned, but this season has only stopped in the semi-finals. I really don't know how long Ferguson will last in the role of Manchester United manager......
Napoli fans were cheering for their team's reach to the final, regardless of what Ferguson's trembling left hand said.
'There are still a few minutes to go before the end of the game, but I don't think Manchester United can change the situation anymore! Napoli are about to reach the final of the Champions League for the first time in history! ”
The Italian commentator on the TV roared loudly, and in front of the TV, the Napoli players who couldn't go to the stadium let out loud cheers.
"Hooray! Cassano! Banzai! Naples! ”
Many fans were even more in tears, and it was difficult for them to choke up.
Napoli were able to reach the final of the Champions League, which they had never dreamed of before, and even in the Maradona era, the harsh reality told them that they would be at most in the second round of the Champions League.
They have always believed that Naples in the Maradona era was the most powerful, and few people will be able to surpass the Maradona era in the future.
In fact, this is also normal, Maradona is the king of the ball after all, and there are only two recognized champions in world football, one of which became famous in Naples.
Will there be a football king in Naples in the future?
This may be too minimal.
Who would have thought that even if there was no football king, Napoli would now throw off Napoli in the Champions League......
The Neapolitan fans who cried with joy couldn't care about the disrespect for the "football king" Maradona......

In the following game time, the commentators were talking about Napoli's possibility of a historic Champions League final, and they were also talking about Chen Yingying's selfless assist just now.
"Actually, Chen Yingying doesn't mean that he didn't shoot, I believe that if he really wants to shoot, it is still possible to break the goal. But obviously Cassano has a better position and chances than him, unguarded and not too small......"
"To be honest, I was quite surprised that the hero would pass the football to Cassano and give up his own shot. You must know that he is now fighting Messi to the death, and Messi is one goal ahead of him. If he doesn't score in this game and goes to the final one goal behind Messi, the pressure will be on him......"
"But the hero made the right choice. He doesn't pass the ball, shoots on his own, and the goal rate is not high. He passes to Cassano, who has a high chance of scoring. In such a situation, it is clear that the victory or defeat of the team is more important than the victory or defeat of the individual. Because if Napoli can't make it to the final, everything will be in vain......"
"Chen Yingying's pass shows us his mature side (). I think with this pass, even if he loses to Messi in the scorer list, he will still be the winner! ”
But Chen Yingying must not be willing to do this as a "defeated winner......
In the remaining minutes, he still wanted to score, but Mazzari adjusted his tactics - seeing that the team was leading by one goal away from home, and there was not much time left in the game, he hurriedly waved his hand and changed!
The defensive counterattack has been replaced by a dead defense, and the counterattack is not needed, as long as you can hold this one-goal advantage, no...... Even if they let the opponent pull a goal back, they will also advance to the final. If he doesn't make that choice, Mazzarri won't be able to be the manager.
All the players retreated, Chen Yingying had to run back to defend, and his desire to score goals could only be suppressed in his heart.
Chen Yingying quickly figured it out - anyway, as long as the team can participate in the final, he still has a chance to compete with Messi. As for now, let's make Messi happy a little longer......

By the time the final whistle blew, United fans were numb and there was no theoretical fluke.
But the few Napoli fans were thrilled.
Napoli's substitutes rushed into the pitch with excitement and hugged their teammates when they saw them.
Cassano, as the goalkeeper, was surrounded by most of his teammates.
There are also things like Captain Paul. People like Cannavaro just knelt on the ground, pointing to the sky with both hands, and didn't know what they were shouting in excitement.
Chen Yingying hugged Arshavin to celebrate the victory.
"It's a pity, hero. You're one goal away. Arshavin is sorry that his good friend was not able to match Messi, and he is of course happy that the team has reached the final, but he prefers that the goal was scored by Chen Yingying......
"No big deal, Shava ()." Chen Yingying patted him on the shoulder, "There are opportunities to score, but there are not many chances to enter the final. Moreover, one less goal is one less goal and made it to the final...... Hey! He grinned.
※※※
In fact, the media is also concerned about this issue.
So in the mixed zone, Chen Yingying was once again surrounded by reporters from all over the world without any suspense, and the problems were all related to his lack of goals.
'Didn't score in six games in a row? I don't care. Chen Yingying shrugged, "The top scorer is the number of goals, not how many games in a row have been scored. ”
"But because you didn't score, you're still one goal behind Messi......," a reporter reminded him.
Chen Yingying smiled, and he smiled very happily, with a look of disdain: "I'm not afraid of being six goals behind, and I'm worried about falling behind one goal?" ”
Many reporters feel that Chen Yingying is right. At the beginning, he was six goals behind Messi and seven goals behind Eto'o, and he was stunned to let him catch up, so the gap of only one goal, why bother?
Anyway, few reporters now dare to laugh at Chen Yingying easily. Because he has slapped all those who question him and ridicule him ten times with practical actions.
You're laughing at him now, maybe he's going to slap you in the final?
"Do you regret passing the ball to Cassano and not scoring yourself?"
"What's there to regret about this? Antonio and I are buddies and the most important thing is that the team gets to the final, as long as I get to the final, I can surpass Messi......"
So everyone knows that Chen Yingying is full of confidence in scoring in the final. In fact, if he wants to surpass Messi in the final, he must score at least two goals, and he has to expect Messi not to score a goal, but in Messi's form, expect him not to score a goal...... It's a bit difficult ().
However, it's because it's so difficult that it's a good show, isn't it?
※※※
In the post-match press conference, Mazzari admitted that he didn't expect Chen Yingxing to choose to pass the ball, which was very unexpected, but the team's promotion to the final is the most important thing, and he believes that Chen's choice shows that he is a team-oriented person.
His words silenced the previous gibberish who criticized Chen Yingying for only scoring goals for himself.
How does Mazzari feel about reaching the final against Barcelona?
"To be able to reach the final is a historic achievement for us. But we won't be satisfied with that, since we are all in the finals, finishing second is definitely not our highest goal......"
What he said was a bit crazy, even illogical, considering that they were facing a strong team like Barcelona in the final. No team that meets Barcelona in the final will say they are confident of winning the title.
But Mazari said it.
This is not normal.
No, it's normal.
You must know that he represents Naples, and Naples and Barcelona have a feud, a deep feud in blood.
As a sworn enemy, it's normal to say such things. If Real Madrid breaks into the final against Barcelona, everyone believes that Mourinho will also say such things.
Actually, Mazari thought the same thing.
Since Napoli and Barcelona have an enmity, if they still show weakness and relent, I am afraid that it will cause some confusion to the players - isn't our manager pouring cold water on us?
This can seriously affect the morale of the team ().
And Napoli was able to reach the final all the way, and he by no means thought that Chen Yingying was working alone. The biggest Lao is actually the hatred of the whole Napoli team towards Barcelona. The whole team was able to get to this point by revenge, and if they showed weakness to their mortal enemies, it would be tantamount to venting their anger in advance.
So he didn't think about whether the team could really beat Barcelona at all, he only thought about maintaining the high morale of the whole team, and he must not fall before the fight!
Besides, the Napolitan tradition is not to be afraid of the sky, and today's Barcelona are called "Cosmos Team", which means that they play football that does not belong to the earth.
But what about Team Cosmos?
Didn't they almost knock out their opponents at Camp Nou? If you don't take the referee, do you win us?
Naples is also qualified to say such things.
At this time, looking at Mazari who was "talking wildly" on stage, a reporter thought of the investigation that the Catalan media had done before.
Which opponent would Barcelona fans most like to face in the final?
Manchester United.
Chen Yingying's interpretation of this is: "They don't want to play Manchester United, they are afraid of playing against Napoli. ”
Perhaps, there is really such a meaning?
Ha, Napoli's revenge battle, the direct dialogue between the two rivals of last year's Champions League, this final at Wembley Stadium may really have a good show!
