We agreed to play football together, and you will be the head coach?

Chapter 226: Champions League three consecutive championships, but failed to win the trophy

Seedorf was obviously a little impatient, and his impatience was infecting other AC Milan players.

In the 52nd minute, Ramos passed the ball to Robinho from the right.

Robinho passed the ball with his back to the goalkeeper, which was a very beautiful move.

Jankulovski was furious and pulled and bumped Robinho to the ground.

The referee showed Jankulovski a yellow card.

For a moment, Milan fans seemed to lose hope.

They need a hero standing on colorful clouds!

In the 55th minute, Pirlo launched an attack with a long pass. The two sides fought for the ball in Real Madrid's half and the ball possession kept changing.

Ronaldo jumped up and headed the ball back, and Pirlo made a through pass.

Kaka made a run forward and had a one-on-one chance.

The strongest features of Cannavaro and Lucio's defense are their athletic abilities such as speed and confrontation, defensive abilities such as tackling and intercepting, and their excellent passing, footwork and advancing abilities.

The only shortcoming is that both players have strong attributes in stealing the ball, but are slightly lacking in trailing. If they encounter speed dogs and offside foxes, they may be penetrated.

Such as this time.

boom!
Kaka challenged Casillas and scored.

The football went into the net.

The stadium is shaking!

"GOAL! Kaka! Kaka, the son of God, has stood up!"

"This is a crazy scene. Kaka refuses to be plundered by He Tianqi again! This time, Milan will be the Champions League champion!"

"Two to two! The score is tied!"

"Real Madrid obviously had the advantage on the field, but Kaka was so deadly!"

“Is the Istanbul miracle going to happen again? Only the victims last time will become the beneficiaries this time?”

"The camera is on Cristiano Ronaldo. Can the Portuguese respond to the Brazilian? They are the two most popular players this year, two rising superstars!"

In the 57th minute, Milan continued to look for Kaka and maximize Kaka's threat.

Kaka also really tried his best. After receiving the ball, he strode forward and directly attacked Vieira in the middle. He was very fierce.

Beckham came over and tackled, but Kaka quickly poked the ball out.

Beckham got yellow card.

Modric immediately spread his hands and walked towards the referee, as if he wanted to argue with the referee.

"What's there to argue about? It's a good thing that he wasn't given a red card." Simeone expressed his incomprehension of Modric's behavior.

He Tianqi shrugged: "Don't think of giving Beckham a red card as soon as you see him. Modric is not trying to argue with the referee, he is just trying to buy enough time for his teammates to calm down."

"Kaka's sharpness has made some of our players almost go crazy, which is not a good thing."

Sure enough, Modric raised questions, which triggered a backlash from Milan players, who also surrounded the referee and demanded a red card.

Modric immediately withdrew from the team battle, worked with his teammates to do ideological work, and fine-tuned everyone's responsibilities.

In the 59th minute, He Tianqi also started to make substitutions.

Raul replaced Negredo.

The latter is consumed greatly today.

Emerson replaces Beckham.

Avoid the situation where two yellows turn into one red.

When Beckham left the field, there was warm applause in the stadium.

Not only Real Madrid fans, but Milan fans were also applauding.

Beckham's performance won recognition from both sides.

In addition, Milan equalized the score, so it was possible to evaluate Beckham more objectively.

Xiaobei was a little excited.

He was very satisfied with his final dance in the Champions League.

But this is how life is. The best version of yourself may not necessarily determine the best outcome.

No one knows when the next goal will come.

In the 61st minute, Pirlo passed the ball to Kaka.

Kaka once again accelerated the ball and prepared to eat Emerson alive.

Although Emerson came on as a substitute and had plenty of energy, he was still unable to keep up with the impact of Kaka.

At the critical moment, Vieira came over and knocked Kaka over.

The referee immediately showed Vieira a yellow card.

The camera then turned to Kaka and Pirlo.

Kaka won a free kick for the team in a good position.

But Pirlo failed to fire a bullet twice.

The football hit the top of the crossbar and flew out, giving Real Madrid fans a false alarm.

"Retreat, don't be in a hurry, hold the middle and don't let them flatten you!" He Tianqi made adjustments on the sidelines, "Emerson, follow Kaka and try not to let him receive the ball too comfortably. He is not good at back-to-back and close-range micro-maneuvers."

Emerson nodded.

Some players are so quick that you have to drop back to defend them, but this gives them more space to sprint.

Sometimes, pushing forward can actually curb the opponent's attack.

It's like leaning forward when someone is punching you.

This adjustment indeed curbed Kaka's next two breakthroughs.

Seeing that the score was tied, Ancelotti was not in a hurry and signaled the team to move back and lure Real Madrid out.

In the 67th minute, Real Madrid's midfield and frontcourt players suddenly launched a pressing attack, adding strength to Milan's midfield and backcourt.

Kaka passes the ball back to Pirlo.

Pirlo passed the ball diagonally back to Seedorf.

However, Modric, who had a low presence, suddenly emerged from the middle and intercepted the ball with his foot.

He then changed direction and dribbled the ball, preparing to dribble past Seedorf who was rushing towards him.

Seedorf also changed direction, trying to block the ball.

As a result, the football hit Seedorf's foot and bounced to Modric's feet, where it was kicked away again by Modric.

Seedorf made a wall pass to Modric and passed himself!
There was no one guarding in front of Modric, and he went straight into the left side of the penalty area.

Because the opponent's back line was approaching, he had no time to adjust and directly shot with his left foot.

boom!
Dida saved the ball, showing his solid saving skills.

But the next moment, Raul made a follow-up shot.

The football went into the goal.

"GOAL! Three to two!"

"Raul takes the lead again for Real Madrid!"

"The Lord of the Rings Returns!"

"Nesta and Maldini obviously underestimated Raul. They only had Ronaldo in their eyes, but forgot who is the real leader of Real Madrid!"

"Raul kissed the ring and the Real Madrid fans at the scene kept shouting his name."

Milan's morale was hit by this ball.

Being behind doesn’t make people despair, but falling behind again after finally equalizing the game makes people wonder if this is destined?
In the 72nd minute, Cafu made a cross from the right, Ronaldo stopped the ball with his chest at the back of the penalty area, and then shot.

This type of shot has occurred three times in this game.

The first time, Kaka stopped the ball with his chest, flicked the ball after it landed and then shot... There was one extra step, so it was not very threatening.

The second time was when Ronaldo caught the ball with his chest and then volleyed the ball... It was too difficult and it flew away.

The third time was when Ronaldo was also preparing to volley.

However, Cannavaro nudged Ronaldo sideways.

Ronaldo did not have enough strength to fight it and was a beat slow. By the time he actually swung his foot, the ball had already landed.

Didn’t kick it!
Cannavaro then cleared the ball.

The camera turned to Ronaldo, and his appearance was quite sad.

Perhaps this season, he is still one of the top strikers in Europe.

But he is actually still far away from his own peak.

The best in the world, gone forever!
In the 74th minute, Ancelotti was about to replace Jankulovski, who was performing poorly, with Kaladze.

However, Cafu covered the back of his thigh and shook his head, indicating that he could not continue the game.

Milan was forced to replace Cafu with Oddo.

The botched Jankulovski stayed on the field.

In the 79th minute, Milan stole the ball from Ronaldo in the backcourt. Pirlo made a long pass to his teammate on the left and hit the back of the referee who turned around and prepared to do parkour.

The football bounced to the top of the arc.

Modric followed up with a long shot with the outside of his foot.

Dida didn't expect Pirlo to assist Modric. He reacted a beat slow, and his palm was about ten centimeters away from the football.

Swish!
Football stirs up countless white waves!
"GOAL! Four to two!"

"Modric extends Real Madrid's lead!"

"What happened to Pirlo? The previous goal was lost because he passed the ball back to Seedorf but made a mistake, allowing Modric to steal the ball. This time he passed the ball directly to Modric!"

"Almost identical to Jankulovski's two mistakes!"

"How could a top midfielder make such a mistake? What's the difference between him and Modric?"

"No! He is not as good as Modric! After all, Real Madrid is already two goals ahead!"

"In Journey to the West, the most fantastic of the four great Chinese classics, there are the Golden Horn King and the Silver Horn King, who look very similar to Modric and Pirlo."

"It seems that Modric is the King of the Golden Horn, and Pirlo is the King of the Silver Horn. The Silver Horn is useless when he sees the Golden Horn!"

Ancelotti was no longer in the mood to listen to such black jokes.

Use up all the substitutions.

Cassano replaced Inzaghi, changing players is like changing knives, trying his luck.

Ambrosini replaces Seedorf.

Considering the time, these two substitutions were actually a bit late.

Seedorf has clearly failed to provide support to Pirlo in the past period of time, allowing him to face Modric's sneak attacks.

During this period, Pirlo did not have the ability to play alone and needed assistance.

In the 82nd minute, Kaka dribbled the ball to the top of Real Madrid's arc and passed the ball straight into the penalty area.

Cassano, who had just come on the field, was worthy of being called Italy's most talented striker. He successfully beat the offside trap and caught up with the ball.

Casillas strikes.

Cassano dribbled one step outside, passed Casillas and shot from a small angle.

The ball is not fast.

But it crossed the goal line before Lucio could get back.

"GOAL! Four to three!"

"Cassano scored a goal within three minutes of coming on the pitch!"

"It's fine if Ancelotti doesn't make substitutions, but once he does, it's a big hit! Who dares to say he's not good at making substitutions?"

"Instead of celebrating, Cassano went straight into the goal to retrieve the ball."

"No Italian player disrespects He Tianqi, except Cassano! Because He Tianqi did not bring Cassano to the World Cup last year, but chose Gilardino and Iaquinta instead."

"After taking over as Real Madrid coach, he immediately sold Cassano to AC Milan."

"Obviously, He Tianqi doesn't like to use strikers like Cassano." "Now Cassano is proving with his actions that He Tianqi's choice was wrong."

“Can the Italian bad boy defeat the King of Italy?”

"Milan still has a chance! As long as they equalize the score, they may really be able to replicate the great Istanbul miracle!"

Milan got excited and launched a crazy attack.

In the 85th minute, Lucio launched a counterattack after a long pass after a steal in the backcourt.

Raul turned around and retreated, volleyed the ball to the side, and directly found Ronaldo.

Ronaldo cuts inside without the ball and gets a one-on-one chance as soon as he receives the ball!

boom!
Ronaldo shot hard.

Bang!
Dida made a superb save and blocked the ball.

All the Milanese felt as if they had died once, with cold sweats on their backs.

Corner kick.

Real Madrid came up slowly. Milan players complained many times and the referee also urged Lucio to come quickly and not to delay.

Modric took a corner kick.

Lucio jumped high to get to the front point.

Maldini stared at Lucio, knowing that he was the core offensive player of Real Madrid's free kicks.

But after nearly ninety minutes of fierce battle, Maldini was still a little exhausted.

During the confrontation, his jump was ten centimeters shorter than Lucio's.

The ball was pushed by Lucio in front of the goal, but it just slid a little and hit Maldini's head.

The path and speed of the football have changed.

The smooth and quick header rubbed back and turned into a slow arc, falling into the small penalty area.

Almost all the players on the field are the top players in football, and their level is extremely high.

When they go for headers, they basically jump at the same time, no matter at the front or back point, so even if they lose their vision, they may still be able to score with a header.

He can also catch a fast ball from the opponent's header.

So this time... when the football slowly flew to the small penalty area, most of the players had just landed, their old strength had been exhausted and their new strength had not yet been generated.

At this time, nothing else matters except pure physical talent.

boom!
After failing to score in the penalty area, Ronaldo jumped again and lightly touched the football with his head.

Dida, who also shifted his center of gravity, was unable to deal with this second header from close range.

The football went into the net.

Ronaldo turned and rushed towards the corner flag area, wanting to siu one.

But he was soon knocked to the ground by his teammates.

Player after player rushed up.

Stacked man!
Even the Real Madrid players on the bench rushed over.

"GOAL! 5-3! Real Madrid refuses to be counterattacked!"

"C Ronaldo killed the game!"

"C Ronaldo also scored a goal and killed the game!"

"Fourteen Champions League goals, tying Ribery's Champions League single-season goal record!"

“This is an amazing achievement!”

"The Milanese were desperate about this goal, it was too difficult to chase! Every time they chased for one, Real Madrid scored one. It felt like the devil was always stronger than the saint!"

"No, it should be one foot high, one foot high!"

The camera swept across the stands, half heaven, half hell.

In the 92nd minute, He Tianqi replaced Vieira with Guti.

Obviously stalling for time.

But the sad Milan fans are no longer able to complain.

The second time!

This is the second time I was defeated by this team in the Champions League final!

Is this Milan's prince consort?
This guy is Milan’s biological father!
The camera also turned to Berlusconi, who looked very unhappy.

On the contrary, Milan's real Zhu Xi Barbara managed her expression better and was not too sad.

Berlusconi: She's not sad at all!
Finally, a whistle sounded and the score was fixed at five to three.

Real Madrid staff rushed into the stadium to celebrate.

The scene became a sea of ​​white.

C Ronaldo found the sad Kaka and took the initiative to exchange jerseys.

Modric found his own "insider" Pirlo to exchange jerseys.

Players from both sides were communicating with each other, Milan players sent their blessings and Real Madrid fans sent their condolences.

Ronaldo felt lost, this was the closest he had ever been to the Champions League.

The players' families also entered the stadium.

Victoria brought the children to find Beckham, and the family was immersed in the joy of winning the Champions League again.

Players such as Emerson, Cannavaro, Lucio, Vieira and others all greatly approve of their decision to transfer to Real Madrid this season.

Because they all gained the highest honor that was previously out of reach.

Isn’t this better than being champion of Serie B?
Buffon: MMP!

Isn't this better than losing the Bundesliga title?
Kahn: CNM!

Isn’t this better than being fourth in the Premier League?
Wenger: CNDY!

……

The reporters immediately surrounded He Tianqi and pushed out Simeone who was in the way.

Reporters from all walks of life started speaking, and He Tianqi didn't know who to answer first.

"He Tianqi, congratulations, you have led different teams to win the Champions League for two consecutive years. This is a historic performance!"

"Not only that, you are also the first head coach in history to win three consecutive Champions League titles!"

"Do you think it's harder to win the title with Real Madrid or with Palermo?"

"This is your fourth and a half year in charge, but you've already won seventeen trophies, if you don't count the two friendlies with Real Madrid... So do you have a trophy room at home?"

"How would you rate the performance of the Real Madrid players?"

"How do you evaluate the performance of Milan players?"

Reporters are outputting like crazy.

He Tianqi asked everyone to be quiet for a while, and then selected some questions to answer: "There is no doubt that this is a peak match. Both teams are among the strongest teams in the world today."

"They all deserved a Champions League title, but this time it was my team that was lucky enough to win, and I am very grateful for that."

"Thank you to all the fans who have supported us. Thank you to the players and staff for their efforts. Thank you to the team's top management, especially Mr. Calderon, for their understanding and help."

"The best player of AC Milan is undoubtedly Kaka. He played a world-class performance. I think he must be in the top three of this year's Ballon d'Or."

"Of course, our team's Cristiano Ronaldo should obviously be in this range as well. They are the two best players in the past year."

"I know a lot of people are paying attention to the performance of these young stars because they have unlimited potential in the future. But here, I want to talk more about the veterans in Real Madrid's team this season. This trophy is inseparable from them."

"Vieira's performance this year is still at the world's top level. Last year, the one who could be compared with him was Motta, and this year, the one who is qualified is Essien. But no matter when, Vieira is always in this range, which is incredible!"

"Cannavaro and Emerson are crucial to the team, they are both the main players of the team...Yes, I think Emerson is the main player of the team, although he often comes on as a substitute, but this is only a tactical need."

"Lucio's performance is phenomenal. He is the anchor of the team's defense and the top central defender that Real Madrid has been looking for."

"Guti, Elguera, Salgado, their presence is the confidence of this team. Real Madrid will always need these players who are willing to contribute to the team. Similarly, Real Madrid will never let down such players! So at any time, we must remember their contributions!"

"Raul showed his best form. He is one of the best strikers in the world this season. Compared to the past, he is transforming, and I think he has succeeded. His efficiency and tactical role in the team are bringing him to another peak in his career!"

"Finally, I have to thank Beckham for his perfect performance this season. We all know that there may be some farewells this summer, but Beckham is dedicated enough. Until the last second before the end of his contract, he is still ready to give 100% to the team."

"This kind of professionalism is something no one expected."

"I think all the fans have misunderstood him on this point, so maybe all of us owe him an apology!"

It would be more accurate to say that this is He Tianqi's speech rather than his answer to reporters' questions.

Soon, the podium was set up.

Some individual awards began to be given out.

This year's Champions League best newcomer belongs to Negredo!
This Real Madrid homegrown youth striker has played a vital role in the team.

Compared to some of the best newcomers in the past, Negredo's talent is much worse.

For example, this year, his biggest competitor is actually Messi.

If Barcelona's record in the Champions League had not been so poor, Messi would have been the best newcomer in the Champions League this year.

So Real Madrid fans are extremely satisfied with this award.

The arrival of He Tianqi not only made the team's competitive level surpass Barcelona, ​​but also brought up the Real Madrid youth training team that was suppressed by La Masia.

In another two years, the quality of La Fabrica's products may surpass that of La Masia.

Modric won the Champions League assists king.

He has contributed four goals and seven assists this season, which is excellent.

Modric: Where, where.

But from the field, under the brilliance of a group of superstars, Modric has become more inconspicuous this season.

This may be the real killer who can only appear at the critical moment.

Ronaldo won the Champions League Golden Boot with 14 goals and shone brightly.

Kaka came second with ten goals.

Van Nistelrooy, Drogba, Raul and Morientes all scored six goals, ranking third.

Beckham, Crouch, Rooney, Villa and Toni all scored five goals, ranking fourth.

Beckham was named Player of the Match in the Champions League final.

This rating somewhat takes into account that this is his last dance in the Champions League, otherwise Ronaldo, who performed on par with Kaka in this game, might be more qualified.

But Ronaldo was not angry because he won the biggest award of the year, the Champions League Best Player.

For the first time, the Portuguese felt the baptism of the highest honor.

With the Golden Boot trophy in my left hand and the Best Player trophy in my right hand, I really can’t get both!

And all of this stems from the fact that he became the public enemy of Britain in last year's World Cup.

When he thought the world was about to be destroyed, the arrival of He Tianqi changed everything. It is most appropriate to describe this process as a transition from bad to good.

This year's Champions League Team of the Year is:

Ronaldo, Drogba, Ribery
Kaka, Modric, Vieira, Valencia

Lucio, Nesta, Vidic
Casillas

-

Five Real Madrid players became the big winners, but it was a pity that Raul, Robinho, Cannavaro and Beckham were not selected.

Two from AC Milan, two from Manchester United, one from Chelsea and one from Bayern.

The former Palermo Four.

What kind of players have extremely high content!

These are all players from the top four teams in the Champions League.

This also means that the teams outside the top four of this year's Champions League do not have any particularly outstanding players.

In fact, Pirlo is more regretful than the Real Madrid players.

Vieira's place should have belonged to him, but his performance in the second half of the Champions League final ruined everything.

Pirlo’s road to becoming a master is long and difficult!
