Chapter 44 Luck! ? As soon as the "Young Guards" arrived at the Rome Airport, reporters from various European countries surrounded the group. Simon Grayson had no choice but to accept an interview with the reporters. "Yes! I really hope to win this Champions League trophy. We have the confidence and strength to win the trophy!" "Of course, Inter Milan is still very strong, otherwise they would not be able to reach the Champions League final!" " The one who scored the goal? Shaq! I believe Shaq, who is in great form recently, will score. His current state reminds me of him ten years ago. Although the Italian team's defensive ability is not weak, You all know that Shaq can score any team's goal. "Haha, the starting lineup is related to our team's tactical arrangement. I don't want to be exposed so early! Mancini is an excellent coach. If he knows our tactics, we will face many difficulties in this game. "Simon Grayson held a press conference for half an hour at the airport, talking about what might happen in the Champions League final itself. The transfer gave the reporters maximum satisfaction before allowing Simon Grayson to leave. The reason why Inter Milan has been able to perform well this season is mainly due to their head coachRobert Mancini! Because of Baldini's retirement, Mancini returned to Inter Milan this season and led the team to the Champions League final. He can be regarded as a typical example of success in his second career. Twenty years ago, when he coached Inter Milan, he could only be limited. In Italy's domestic Serie A, there are absolutely no impressive results in the Champions League. The financial support of the then Inter Milan president Massimo Moratti was wasted, which was completely a reflection of his lack of personal ability. But now Mancini, who is sixty years old, has returned to Italy after traveling a lot. Already an experienced coach, Mancini takes the greatest credit for being able to lead Inter Milan, which is not very outstanding, into the Champions League final. However, Mancini still showed due humility before the game. Even though he is a few years older than Simon Grayson, he is really incomparable in terms of performance. "Simon is a great manager. His coaching level is among the best in the world. His teams are always very dominant. Leeds United this season is very strong. If we want to beat them we It is only possible if we exert 120% of our strength. Now the team and I are ready." Mancini said it very modestly and put himself and the team in the position of the weak. But he still didn't expect that his team was really so weak! ??In the Champions League final at 19:45 on the evening of May 31 at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, the game had not even started for a minute, and Inter Milan¡¯s players had not touched the ball yet. Leeds United took the first kick and scored! Shaq kicked off the ball in the center circle and kicked the ball to Brookman. The ball was passed back to Ashley Hood, then transferred to the feet of Ben Parker on the left, and then passed straight to the left front. Lance. After Lens dribbled horizontally for a few steps, he passed the ball to Brookman in the middle. Then Brookman controlled the ball, looked forward to Shaq's position, and kicked a curved ball with a "bang" kick. The ball was sent directly to the penalty area on the right side of Inter Milan! Shaq in the middle turned around and ran diagonally into the Inter Milan penalty area. He faced Inter Milan goalkeeper Ziller directly! Shaq raised his right foot and made a fake shot, which made the German goalkeeper shake his center of gravity. But he took the ball two more steps to the outside with his left foot, and then with a "dong" sound of his right foot, he blasted the ball into the lower right corner of the Inter Milan goal! "GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" "The ball is in! The game has just started and Leeds United have taken the lead! The person who scored the goal is Shaq! This is Shaq¡¯s nineteenth goal in the Champions League this season! Tsk! It¡¯s indeed the ball king Shaq!¡± After a moment of surprise, the Leeds United team started celebrating. The substitute players hadn't even sat on the bench yet, but the goal actually went in! Simon Grayson laughed and hugged Harvey, then stood on the sidelines with a smile and applauded, and gave a thumbs up to the court. Did he really think that Brooke was better at defense than John Allen? Man, was actually able to provide such an exquisite assist to Shaq. Because of Leeds captain Jonny Howson, Leeds United's recently used midfield combination of John Allen + Brookman has become Jonny Howson + Brookman. Simon Grayson still thinks Jonny Howson is. Sen's experience and hard work can play a greater role, and in a game like the Champions League final, as long as the captain is not seriously injured and unable to play, he must not miss it. Less than a minute into the game, Leeds United led 1:0, which made the Leeds United team ecstatic and made the Inter Milan team feel like they were in a dream. But among the people sitting in the stands watching the game, one person was in a different mood. Incredibly complicated, that is Marcio! The Brazilian center back, who has already confirmed that he will join Inter Milan when the summer transfer window opens in one month, will not have many opportunities to play after the winter transfer period. Simon Grayson also made it clear to him that he would give Knuwels has more training opportunities, which Marcio can understand. After all, he will no longer be a member of Leeds United, so he will naturally not enjoy better treatment. But watching Leeds United win the "Triple Crown" in England and reaching the Champions League final, Marcio felt a little uncomfortable. Now he sees his old club taking the lead on the court again. With the new club, he felt even more confused. He didn't know whether to cheer for the old club's goal or sigh for the new club's upcoming tragic fate. At the same time, Marcio still has a little bit of jealousy and regret in his heart! Ififwell, then I should be one of the people on the court who is about to win the Champions League trophy! ? Think about the huge benefits it will bring if you can get the title of the main center back of a Champions League championship team! ? As Marcio, who is extremely familiar with Leeds United, he knows Leeds United too well. Once Leeds United takes the lead, this team will become invincible. Shaq, Lens, Hoy The speed of Denke's three arrows is definitely a nightmare for all opponents! Even if Leeds United does not play defensive counterattack, once they find their own offensive rhythm, they will definitely be able to break any opponent's goal. There is no doubt about this! Inter Milan, which was lagging behind, immediately made tactical adjustments. With a wave of his hand, Mancini signaled the team to switch from defense to offense! This is the Champions League final. Losing one goal is also a loss. Losing two goals is also a loss. It¡¯s better to take advantage of the fact that the game has just begun and the opponent just scored a lucky goal and has not yet fully entered the state. It¡¯s really not possible Then just pull back and defend. Mancini's move was really effective. In the next ten minutes, Inter Milan was surrounding Leeds United, but Leeds United, which had shrunk back, also defended very tightly. This team passed Simon? After two years of training by Grayson and two seasons of fighting, the young players finally began to mature, led by veterans such as Shaq, Jonny Howson, Ashley Hood, and Ben Parker. , his performance on the court can only be described as calm. Leeds United¡¯s defense is stable, which is not a good thing for Inter Milan! At 12 minutes, Leeds United launched the most threatening counterattack since the start of the game. Shaq pulled the ball to the right. After seeing the follow-up of his teammates, he made an emergency stop and got rid of the Nigerian left back John Ofer. Lei, after stepping out of the space, kicked the ball to the foot of Hoydonk in the center with a "bang" kick. Hoydonk dribbled the ball all the way into the Inter Milan penalty area. Facing the attacking Ziller, he followed Shaq's previous actions and moved the ball to the right, then caught up and swung his right foot to complete the shot. ¡°Bang!¡± The ball flew toward Inter Milan¡¯s lower left corner goal. It was about to fly into the blind corner, but it bounced back from the goal post with a ¡°dang¡± sound! "Oh¡ª¡ª" Hoydonk held his head in pain At this moment, Ziller, who turned around to chase the ball, caught the ball that bounced off the goal post, but suddenly there was a stick in front of him The blue figure slid on the ground and put the ball into the goal with one kick! Thisthiswhat's going on! ? You know, in this Champions League final, Inter Milan wore their traditional jerseys, blue and black arrow striped jerseys! "Own goal!" "Oh God! Inter Milan's luck is so bad! Own goal! The No. 4 chasing back, Argentinian center back Luis Pereira shoveled the ball into his own goal!" "Does Luis want to transfer next season? Going to Leeds United? He dared to score such a goal! "Inter Milan is so unlucky!" When Hoydonk turned from sadness to happiness, As he ran toward Shaq, laughing and shouting, the commentator's seat where commentators from all over the world were gathered was also in an uproar, with everyone saying anything. Luis Pereira, the Argentinian center back who scored an own goal, was just lying quietly on his goal line, his chest rising and falling rapidly His eyes had been closed, it was so painful! In such a crucial game in the Champions League final, when his team was one goal behind, he actually scored an own goal! Damn it! Damn it! Off the field, Inter Milan coach Mancini¡¯s face was darkened. Because Marcio could not be obtained immediately during the winter transfer, the Argentinian center back who was bought and planned to be Marcio¡¯s substitute next season was really useless! Fortunately, Inter Milan will soon have Marcio, and then they will have a stable defense line! It¡¯s just Mancini glanced at the celebrating Leeds United side on the other side, and smiled helplessly in his heart: It¡¯s just that Leeds United¡¯s luck is too damn good! ? Obviously the ball couldn't go in, but one of Inter Milan's own people jumped out and made up the ball! This game is not allowed to be played! ?
