Chapter 276: Champions League Winner (35/134)
Chang Sheng returned to Rome and did not choose to go to Balak immediately.
He just watched quietly from the sidelines. Watch Ballack's integration into the team, watch Ballack's training.
He didn't even say anything to Ballack alone in front of the players.
He learned that this was a very sensitive time for Barak.
In Germany, in England, in Italy, there is a voice that says Ballack transferred to Ballack to hold the thigh of Chang Sheng.
Although there are many reasons for Ballack's transfer to Lazio, the media have reported selectively, and they have focused on Ballack's transfer to Lazio to win a Champions League title, that is, to hold the thigh of the winning man.
Although this is true, it is inevitable that there will be some insults when it is said repeatedly.
Of course, the media will say: "Hugging your thighs, you do this kind of thing, we can't say it?" ”
That seems to make sense.
But if they ask Chang Sheng this question, then it is guaranteed that Chang Sheng's big-eared melon seeds will smoke them.
"Lao Tzu's players, you just can't say it!"
※※※
In addition, winning often requires Ballack to have such a process of psychological change.
If Ballack can't let go of his form, then it will definitely not be a good thing for him to integrate into the team.
Chang Sheng planned to let Ballack face his heart first, and think about what he came to Lazio for.
To come to Lazio as a star is to come to the wrong place.
It is a place of transformation for the marginalized, the exiled.
Success at Lazio is only possible if the past is completely discarded. Here, you have to say goodbye to the past.
Look no further than Francesco Papa.
He's a model of success after saying goodbye to the past.
Chang Sheng is so in no hurry to talk to Barak.
Talking now may not be effective.
Let's let Barak suffer a little......

In the following time, the winning teams will be ready for the UEFA Super Cup.
In the UEFA Super Cup, Lazio's opponents are last season's Europa League winners...... Atletico Madrid!
What a coincidence.
Last season's Atletico Madrid had a great performance. They beat Fulham 2-1 in the final to lift the Europa League trophy.
So in this way, the two enemies got together......
Everyone still remembers that 9:0.
It's unforgettable.
This is the eternal pain of Atletico Madrid.
After that game, Atletico Madrid became the laughing stock of the whole of Europe.
They wounded Lazio's David Silva with a foul in the first leg. I thought I would be able to win this way. As a result, he was beaten by the angry Lazio away from home, 0:9! This is the most disparity after the Champions League restructuring.
Actually, think about it. It didn't take long, two seasons ago.
Now it can be said that Atletico Madrid's wounds have not yet been scarred, and they have met Lazio again.
With the pride of the Europa League title, they will have to wrestle with the winning Lazio in the UEFA Super Cup.
It's just that most of the media is not very optimistic about them.
Lazio and Atletico Madrid are not teams of the same calibre.
Atletico Madrid should be thinking about how not to lose too ugly. Instead of beating Lazio.
With Lazio's current momentum, Atletico Madrid is really hard to win.
Before the game, the media even said that "losing by less than three goals is a victory for Atletico Madrid." ”
Pre-match public opinion was completely in favor of Lazio.
Even the Lazio players think so.
They only need to move their little finger to easily beat Atletico Madrid.
Atletico Madrid didn't take Atletico Madrid much seriously either.
Defeated, defeated repeatedly, the UEFA Super Cup is nothing more than another warm-up match.
※※※
The match with Atletico Madrid was preceded by the Champions League award ceremony and the draw ceremony.
In the just-concluded Champions League, Lazio became the big winner.
They won all five awards for Best Goalkeeper, Best Defender, Best Midfielder and Best Striker and Best Player.
There are twelve nominees for the five awards. All voted for by the managers of last season's Champions League 16-finalists, with three candidates each for goalkeeper, defender, midfielder and striker.
In the end, Handanovic won the best goalkeeper, Jose Passarella won the best defender, and the best midfielder was won by Luka Modric. The best striker belongs to Edinson Cavani, and the best player is also Edinson Cavani.
Edinson Cavani scored eleven goals in the Champions League last season and was named the best striker and best player for that performance.
The best striker is actually the top scorer.
After Falcao left Lazio, Lazio fans have long missed "Tiger" because they have an equally good Cavani.
Four Lazio players stood on the stage with five trophies in their hands, and they meant how successful and strong Lazio was last season......
It's a pity that there is no option for the best coach in the Champions League, otherwise Chang Win can win many times.
In fact, there is no such authoritative award in the coaching world.
Prior to the addition of the Coach of the Year award to FIFA's annual awards, only one UK football magazine had a selection of the best coaches.
But that award lacks authority......
Few people even know.
What Chang Sheng can win is the annual Serie A Oscar for the best coach.
But so far, he's only taken it once.
It was the time he led Lazio to Champions League glory, which he won in January of the following year.
In the second season, Lazio lost the Champions League due to a big change, and only won the league title and the Coppa Italia.
However, the best coach was taken away by someone else, and the selection team finally found a reason to blacken him openly, because he lost the Champions League title, so he did not deserve to be the best coach in Italy.
Now Chang Sheng doesn't care about this Italian domestic award at all.
In his words, the influence is too small.
He's going to be the best coach in the world, what's so rare about being the best coach in Italy?
Chang Sheng sat in his seat, watching his disciples win the award, smiling and applauding.
It's as if he had won an award himself.

Final Champions League draw ceremony. Lazio, as the defending champions, were seeded and placed in a group, Group A.
They are Tottenham Hotspur in England and Twente in the Netherlands. and Germany's Werder Bremen in a group.
The situation of this group is still very good. Lazio didn't have a real rival.
Whether it's Tottenham Hotspur. It's still Twente, Werder Bremen, everyone believes that there is no way to cause problems for Lazio.
If nothing else happens to this group. It should be Lazio who took the lead and qualified first.
But it is clear to the winner that Tottenham Hotspur will be strong in this group.
He has to deal with it seriously, and he doesn't want to follow in the footsteps of Inter. Let Tottenham Hotspur's Gareth Bale be humiliated in the game.
Of course, there is only one opponent in this group who really has weight, and Lazio is not a problem to qualify, the key is to compete with Tottenham Hotspur for the first place.
The two-legged tie against Tottenham Hotspur should determine who wins the group.
After the draw ceremony, it was the UEFA Super Cup match between Lazio and Atletico Madrid that evening.
Many believe that Lazio have a great chance to challenge Barcelona's record of six crowns this year.
Because they won the Champions League, the league championship and the Coppa Italia in the first half of the year, all of them were missed.
And next. In the second half of the year, they won the Italian Super Cup.
Four of the six titles have already been won, and this fifth UEFA Super Cup is also in the bag.
※※※
But there was a big difference between the actual game and the regular wins and what the Lazio players expected. Because in the first half, Lazio was actually behind!
And that's two balls!
This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that Lazio is not even dominant on the field!
Lazio's players looked out of shape.
Their trademark fast pass run was completely unsuccessful.
The players are not fast. The pass is also inaccurate.
There are a lot of mistakes.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, used the tactics of rushing and smashing, and as soon as they came up, they rushed Lazio to pieces.
When Lazio tried to reorganize the attack, they found that they could not be connected at all.
Because of their pride and underestimation of the enemy before, they were not well prepared.
Throughout the first half, they not only conceded two goals, but were also pressed and beaten by Atletico Madrid.
Atletico Madrid fans in the stands cheered and cheered for the team's performance.
Lazio fans looked at each other, their faces full of confusion or shock.
They don't understand how an opponent who can be defeated 9-0 can become so ferocious that Lazio is helpless!
The narrator added fuel to the fire.
"It's unbelievable! For the first time, Lazio had less possession than their opponents in the first half! The Italian team is really embarrassed......"
"Atletico Madrid completely exceeded our pre-match expectations, they were brave and Lazio looked careless! By the time they want to get nervous, it's too late! ”
"Now I think Atletico Madrid will beat Lazio, just because of the performance of both sides in this game......"
"Constantly pacing back and forth on the sidelines. He looked anxious. If Lazio loses to Atletico Madrid, it will be the first time he has lost to this team since he was the manager. A record will be broken......"
The commentators are all grassy in the wall, and except for the Italian commentators, everyone else has switched to Atletico Madrid.
There is always a mentality of sympathy for the weak.
In their opinion, Atletico Madrid is a typical underdog.
And they were beaten 9-0 by Lazio two seasons ago, which makes it even more difficult for them to perform now.
So they were able to have today's Jedi counterattack, which is indeed worthy of admiration and praise.
Just praised them, and Lazio naturally became the villain.
Everyone even wants Lazio to lose.
Because Razi only lost one game last season, it was a Champions League group stage after he had already won the group or sent all the substitutes to lose.
Lazio can't lose when they're fighting for something.
Everyone wants Lazio to lose.
That's what makes it interesting......
