Juventus started with three consecutive games, and Liverpool scored 4 goals to perform a miracle!

Yang Cheng has achieved the greatest classics and myths in the history of the Champions League!

In the battle of Istanbul, Caesar ascended to the altar!

Liverpool, who sank into hell, ascended to heaven because of Yang Cheng!

The enthusiasm of the fans decided the life and death of Liverpool, and the KOP shocked the world!

The Liverpudlians proved themselves with blood, and Juventus had no choice but to suffer a shocking reversal!

……

The next day, the front pages of major newspapers around the world were filled with a barrage of sensational news.

Unlike in the past, after every Champions League session, there were always some media outlets who stood up to mourn the losers and the like, today almost all of them praised Liverpool and thought that Juventus had lost convincingly.

To put it in the headline of the New York Times, "In the face of the classics, no matter how powerful the opponent is, he can only choose to surrender; In the face of mythology, no matter how powerful an enemy is, he has to have a noble head underneath! ”

And at the end of the article, a reporter from the New York Times summed up the game in one sentence, "Chinese head coach Yang Cheng's battle for the gods!" On behalf of the United States, which is in the football desert, they also believe that with this game, Yang Cheng will ascend to the altar of football.

Pozzo, the editor-in-chief of Italy's Milan Sports Newspaper, wrote an article himself, praising Yang Cheng, an old friend, saying that no matter where he goes, he has never forgotten his football philosophy, and he is always improving.

"I remember very well that I once went to Liverpool and had dinner with Yang Cheng, and when I asked him what is the difference between football in England, Italy and Germany, he answered me with a word, emotion!"

"He told me that German football is very rigorous, and even if they are technical, it is technicalized within a rigorous framework; Italian football is very calm, always tactical first, always even; Football in England is very good because football is more than just football for the players and fans here. ”

"He told me that he likes the more relaxed atmosphere of football in Germany because it can be entertained by football; I also like the emphasis on technique and tactics in Italian football, which allows the manager to make the most of it; But he also loves Premier League fans because it gives football a deeper meaning. ”

"I told him that after so much contact, I found that he was constantly learning, in his football tactics, integrated with the rigor of the Germans, the tactical thinking of the Italians, and now, we can see that he has learned the essence of English football, learned their perseverance."

"He's a great guy and I'm looking forward to seeing Yang Cheng again, he's only 33 years old, and we hope he can continue to be on the football pitch and bring us more joy and more pure football fun."

Unlike the personal comments of Milan's Sport newspaper, the British newspaper's The Times front-page headline directly gave a greater definition of the Istanbul miracle.

"This game is bound to change the direction of football!"

In the column of Martin Samuel, the famous columnist, he did not comment directly on the game, but told a story of the past from the development of modern football.

"We all know that the development of modern football, it should be said that since the Heysel tragedy 20 years ago, it was a watershed, before that, European football was the world of England, Liverpool, Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa, England's teams have become the hegemon of Europe, causing the vigilance of football in other countries."

"In the eyes of many people, English football looks barbaric, always emphasizing some ethereal and worthless spirit, they lack a scientific foundation, training is chaotic, players are drunk, murder, all kinds of scandals are endless, but they can always use their football philosophy again and again to complete the redemption of themselves."

"Shankly said that football is not about life and death, football is higher than life and death, and this is the interpretation of English football." ..., "Blood, hard work, diligence, hard work, tears, sweat, tenacity...... The English have brought their football to every corner of the world in the most masculine way, so that the whole world can feel the power of their football, and they can lose because they believe they must win back! ”

"But all this, after the Heysel tragedy, came to an abrupt end, and Liverpool, which has the most English football color, completely declined, and with the decline of teams such as Nottingham Forest and Wimbledon, with the arrival of foreign managers such as Wenger and Houllier, as the Premier League replaced the previous League One and became the top league of English football, everyone will find that everything has changed."

"The booths in the stadium were abolished, the low-income groups were excluded from the faith, and more and more gentlemen in suits and ties replaced them with doubts, trying to understand this kind of faith, but in the end, they found that the so-called faith is actually backward, it is decay, it is not keeping up with the times."

"More and more technology on the training ground has replaced the role of people, they will use computers to calculate everything, they will even plan every minute of every game, and the players will no longer dominate the football, but become the executors of computer programs."

"We can even believe that if it weren't for football, someone would have to do it, and they might even consider that a group of robots would be more executable, because they would never doubt their bosses, and they would be full of work, and they wouldn't be old, they wouldn't complain, they wouldn't have a temper."

"We can see that the personality of the players is becoming more and more mediocre, and disturbance off the pitch has become taboo, because a large part of their income is linked to their image, and they need to sell their image to obtain, which makes them desperately maintain their image, and they can't have the slightest tarnish, otherwise they can't get along with money."

"This is a high-tech, high-intelligence, high-commercial value football era!"

"But in this game, Liverpool, which represents the spirit of original English football, once again reinterpreted the meaning of football with the most English, the most men's football method, and reinterpreted a kind of football beauty that computers and robots cannot give."

"Who says the spirit of football in England is savage? So, Liverpool proved one thing with this game, and now the football that the world admires is a high-tech precision calculation, so the bloody nature of football has become barbaric and redundant, but Liverpool has used this game to show the world the pride of savagery! ”

"Of course, the world is moving forward, and a lot of bad things must be eliminated, so we are very grateful to Yang Cheng, he eliminated some rotten and bad things from Liverpool and brought them some better things, but his greatest contribution is to retain Liverpool's kind of manliness that represents barbarism, blood and masculinity!"

"It's a superstitious world, but the biggest superstition in the world is that superstitious technology will make everything better for us!"

Martin Samuel's remarks are very exploratory, and even to some extent, not only belong to football, but also involve other aspects, which is very biased, but it is worth studying and has caused a huge response.

However, unlike the one he gave to the battle of Istanbul with such a deep meaning, the parties Liverpool did not have the slightest awareness, they just completed a final, they just didn't want to lose.

Perhaps, as is the case with many things, everyone will desperately attach their own understanding to what they agree with.

Yang Cheng really didn't think about it so much, he just sat on the plane, thinking about some questions.

For example, after he finished eating last night, he went straight back to the hotel to sleep, and he didn't go to the appointment, I wonder if they would want to hack him to death with a knife?

A flight attendant...... Oh, I should have called the air lady to come and remind him that the plane was about to land.

After Yang Cheng thanked him, he looked behind him, many players who were crazy were sleeping on the plane, and they were woken up one by one, yawning, these guys were crazy all night last night, but they were all confined to the hotel, otherwise, it would be fun to go out and ensure that they would not make any trouble. ..., "Boss! "Gerald is right behind Yang Cheng.

"What's the matter?" Yang Cheng turned his head and saw Gerard's bloodshot eyes through the gap in the seat.

The latter smiled, "Wait a minute, you take the trophy and take us down!" ”

There must be a lot of Liverpool fans waiting at John Lennon Airport, and the players feel that Yang Cheng should be at the front.

This is a tribute to him and a recognition of him.

Yang Cheng smiled, "Is it necessary?" Go ahead, I'll go at the back! ”

There is no need for him to compete with the players, because no one can deny his role, and if he gives up the limelight to the players at this time, he can also build a good impression of the players in his mind and promote harmony within the team, so why not?

"But......" Gerrard still wants to fight for.

"I said you go ahead, you go ahead, unless you want all of us to crouch on the plane and not get down."

Gerrard and Carragher looked at each other, and both nodded in unison, only accepting the manager's arrangement.

To be honest, after two years of getting along, they more or less know Yang Cheng's character, so they are not reluctant.

A few minutes later, when the plane landed at John Lennon Airport, when the three captains of Gerard, Carragher and Hyypia finally stepped off the plane with the big ear cups in their hands one left and one right, the entire John Lennon Airport suddenly burst into a burst of extremely enthusiastic cheers.

"Long live Liverpool!"

"Gerald!! Captain!! ”

"Jamie, you're a hero!!"

But the loudest shouting was "Caesar!!" Caesar!!! ”

The players walked out one by one, followed by the last one out of the cabin, as soon as Yang Cheng appeared, the entire tarmac burst into a burst of extremely enthusiastic cheers and cheers, and the fans shouted Caesar's name frantically.

Yang Cheng waved his hand to the fans, and slowly followed Gerrard and the others before stepping off the plane.

The mayor of Liverpool came here with a group of senior officials and parliamentarians to greet him, including a Chinese, who was elected after Yang Cheng helped him appeal before, which was the first Chinese parliamentarian in the United Kingdom.

As with all previous welcome ceremonies, there is always some photo, greeting, and then some delegates come up and say a lot of thanks, in fact, this set is also popular abroad.

"The fans have gone crazy, almost the whole Liverpool has poured out, all the Liverpool fans have gathered in the city, the roads are blocked!" Rick Parry leaned over to Yang Cheng and said.

"Understandable!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.

Won a league championship, the whole Liverpool is crowded, and now after the 20th anniversary of winning this Champions League, will it not make Liverpool fans crazy? It is said that many people rushed back to Liverpool from Turkey overnight last night to prepare for this afternoon's celebration.

"According to the previous call up notice from the national team, many players have to rush to the national team to report today, so we decided to go directly around the city, and you can talk to the players later!" Rick Parry said.

Yang Cheng nodded, for this kind of thing, he tried his best to accommodate the club.

In fact, Liverpool is also very accommodating to Yang Cheng, for example, in the summer of the first two seasons, the team was in Asia and the United States, and now this season, Yang Cheng decided to conduct a low-key training camp in Europe, and the club did not make it difficult for him, but carefully selected a few suitable training places, and finally Yang Cheng chose Italy.

It's a real coincidence, and it's not intentional.

When the team walked out of the airport after a while, they boarded the double-decker bus without a canopy, and the players stood on the top floor of the bus, all holding on to the big ear cups, and slowly drove out of John Lennon Airport.

Along the way, there are many private cars with Liverpool logos printed and dyed, or private cars with Liverpool flags on the front of the car, and even the back row of many pickup trucks is crowded with Liverpool fans, all of them are full of oil paint, and they shout loudly when they see the team bus, and their voices are a little hoarse, it is conceivable that they must have been crazy last night.

Mounted Police, **, Auxiliary Police ...... Almost the entire Liverpool police force was completely dispatched.

Especially in the city of Liverpool, the fans almost surrounded the team, so that they had to form a defensive line around the bus to prevent the fans from getting too close, for fear that they would overturn the bus. ..., there are too many people, squeezing around, it's quite possible!

They were blocked at the intersection of the city for a full hour, and finally had to evacuate some fans before the bus could pass slowly.

This kind of pomp and circumstance even attracted Liverpool's sworn enemies, and many Everton fans took to the streets, but this time they did not dare to wear Everton's shirts for fear of being accidentally drowned by a mouthful of spit.

There are too many people, and there are worries of one kind or another.

…………

…………

The parade, which was supposed to take an hour or two, didn't end until around 8pm, and the buses were carried almost all over the streets of Liverpool by the fans, and finally returned to Anfield, where it was bustling again.

The team was disbanded on the spot in the dressing room at Anfield.

Yang Cheng looked at this group of players who were no longer excited, but more tired, and secretly laughed in his heart, because they didn't sleep last night, but they slept on the plane for a while.

Carragher took advantage of everyone's time to send out an invitation to the wedding, this guy was going to get married, for fear that someone would be absent.

"Alright, everyone!" With Yang Cheng's shout, the lively vegetable market finally quieted down.

'I'm grateful for the hard work and trust you've put in over the last season, it's been a hard season and it's been a good time, we've all paid off, so you can play to your heart's content for the rest of the season.'

With Yang Cheng's words, there was a burst of cheers in the locker room.

2005 was an odd-numbered year, there were no tournaments, and they had plenty of time to rest and have fun.

"Bars, nightclubs, parties, ......," Yang Cheng said deliberately.

The excitement of the players suddenly became sluggish, because they all felt that the leader must say that they could not go.

But who knows, Yang Cheng nodded and said, "In the next period of time, you can all go!" ”

The players all raised their hands in unison and shouted, "Long live the boss!" Something like that.

"But, don't give me any trouble, play and be modest, I don't want to see any mess in you, and besides, it's best to adjust my body before the training camp, you know what I'm going to face next."

"Don't worry, boss, we'll play for a week, and after a week, we're desperate to lose weight!" Gerald shouted excitedly.

The players immediately agreed, and even some embryos were already studying where to go for a vacation, some suggested going to the naturist beaches in Spain, some proposed to go to Dubai altogether, and some proposed to go to some places with more beautiful women.

God knows what this group of energetic guys will do during the vacation!

"Alright, that's all I have to say!"

"All in all, have a nice holiday!" Yang Cheng smiled and nodded.

"Guys, we'll see you in July!"

"Goodbye, boss!"

Although the players looked polite, this group of guys did not have the slightest memory, and as soon as they disbanded, they immediately rushed out of the locker room and ran back to their homes.

Yang Cheng also breathed a sigh of relief, and he walked out of the locker room with a smile.

He doesn't have any vacation plans yet, he likes to be casual, and he doesn't have much to plan for what he wants to do.

But just as he hitchhiked to the Melwood base to pick up the car, and drove his awesome Ferrari all the way back to his door, he found that someone was blocking him at his door.

And, there's more than one!
