Golden Greenery

There are so many mixed emotions in the San Siro Stadium today that one cannot accurately describe its mood in one word.

This season, AC Milan has three games left, and today is the last home game. After three games, 41-year-old Paolo Maldini retired. Today is Maldini's home farewell game.

A week ago, the AC Milan club began to sell the 'Maldini Farewell Commemorative T-shirt'. The white commemorative T-shirt has a red heart on it, which is from the clothing brand 'Sweet-Years' co-founded by Maldini and Vieri. logo. Almost everyone in the San Siro Stadium today is wearing this white T-shirt. The fans are wearing it, Zhuo Yang and his teammates are wearing it, and their opponents Roma are also wearing it.

The whole of Italy is bidding farewell to Maldini and paying tribute to this great legend. Even city rival Inter Milan, from officials to fans, is also thanking Maldini for his contribution to football and the city of Milan.

Maldini, who was at the front of the queue, walked into the stadium holding his sons Daniel and Christian, one on the left and the other on the right. Zhuoyang stared at his back at the end of the queue.

Maldini is the most pious surname in the history of AC Milan, surpassing Berlusconi. From Cesar, to Paul, to Daniel and Christian, three generations have demonstrated their unswerving loyalty to AC Milan. Today, the old Maldini and the two younger Maldini came to the scene, as well as the Cavalier's wife Adriana. They all came to witness Paolo Maldini's farewell to San Siro.

Not only will he bid farewell to this stadium, but Maldini will also bid farewell to AC Milan, and he said to Zhuoyang: "I'm not sure if I will come back, maybe I won't come back."

Maldini is a legendary player in the history of the team. If we follow the tradition of Serie A, he will definitely enter the club and hold senior positions after retirement, using their influence and deep understanding of football to continue working for the team and club. Originally, under Barbara's support in the second half of last year, Maldini had reached a verbal agreement with Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi and other senior officials. After retiring, he would serve as the sports strategic development director of the AC Milan club. This position is equivalent to the deputy of sports director Braida. It also means that after the 64-year-old Braida retires in the future, Maldini will become Milan sports director and take full charge of the club's sports and competitive affairs.

But everything changed after entering 2009. Barbara abandoned her martial arts skills and was demoted and withdrew from the decision-making level of AC Milan. The eldest son Pierre took charge of all work. Pierre rejected the previous agreement. He believed that Maldini had no management experience and was not suitable to take up such an important management position immediately. Pierre is shameless. Maldini has been with AC Milan for more than 30 years since he was nine years old. He knows Milan better than anyone else, and Pierre himself has never even been a contractor before, let alone management experience. , he is a loser who doesn’t even have any work experience.

Pierre's true intention was to expel Barbara's 'Brother Paul', but he did not dare to do so openly, otherwise he would be condemned by the whole world. Pierre offered Maldini a job as youth coach at Milan's youth training base in Vismara, but he was not yet the head coach.

This was an insult to Maldini and he refused without hesitation. The Cavaliers love AC Milan and are always loyal to the red and black in their hearts, but they are not loyal to the surname Berlusconi. Maldini publicly announced in the media that he will completely leave football and AC Milan after retiring.

Among the top leaders, Prime Minister Bei basically no longer interferes with specific affairs. Galliani has long had the idea of ​​​​cleaning up the nondescript institution of the Knights of the Round Table, so he is happy to expel Maldini, the leader of the Knights. Braida, on the other hand, chose Mingzhe to protect herself because Barbara lost power.

Milan's cold treatment of Maldini had a very bad and far-reaching impact. Not only did Ancelotti feel sorry for his old brother and took the opportunity to terminate his contract extension with the club, but it also left hard-to-heal scars in the hearts of other Milanese. It is difficult for players and clubs to trust each other anymore, and as time goes by,

Players and executives are suspicious of each other, and Milan's traditional culture is finally becoming increasingly thin.

In the future, AC Milan will prefer foreign "mercenary-style" players, because only talking about interests will essentialize and simplify things. They are disgusted with the veteran Italian players who always try to use their emotions to kidnap fans and threaten the club. Of course, this is just their opinion, but the estrangement officially began when Maldini retired and has become deeper and deeper.

Since then, Pirlo, Gattuso, Nesta, Ambrosini, Brocchi, Bonera and other Italian team veteran pillar players failed to end their lives at Milanello at the end of their careers, but left. Other teams continue to compete. This lamentable phenomenon is the legacy of AC Milan's indifferent treatment of Maldini.

Maldini did not tell the outside world the truth about his abandonment. He did not want the club to have civil strife, especially those with a big temper who loved to show off, such as Zhuoyang. He had to be careful about him exploding at a critical moment at the end of the season.

But after all, the fire cannot be contained in the paper, and these things cannot be hidden at all. Zhuoyang was very angry for Maldini, but he couldn't fight over this matter. His sister and Fatty dissuaded him from getting angry in the media because they sensed something unusual about this matter. But in the end, it was Maldini himself who comforted Zhuo Yang.

Maldini said: "Zhuoyang, Milan is above everything else, higher than Maldini and higher than Berlusconi. Milan needs a championship to unite the team and send me off with a championship."

Maldini's words are right. The brilliant prospects that the team has worked hard for this season cannot be ruined in the hands of the bastards at the top. Zhuo Yang listened to the Cavaliers' advice, suppressed his mood, and focused on leading the team on three fronts. Rushing forward.

Not only Zhuo Yang, but Maldini, who is elegant, wise, high IQ and high EQ, used his huge prestige to appease the entire team, allowing all players to focus their energy and thoughts on the final sprint of the season. Therefore, with the joint efforts of Maldini, Zhuo Yang, Ancelotti and others, AC Milan presented a very interesting scene: the management was in chaos, but the team was united and united. The rolling yellow mud merges with the clear and rushing river water, and the lines are distinct.

Zhuoyang asked Maldini: "Paul, what are you going to do after leaving Milan?"

"Zhuoyang, let me tell you a secret. In fact, my biggest dream is not to be a successful professional player, but to be a successful fashion designer. I think it's time to realize my dream."

"Paul, you will definitely succeed. When the time comes, how about I endorse the 'Sweet-Years' fashion that you designed?"

"Hahaha..., Zhuo Yang, my dear brother, you are too expensive, I can't afford you. Hahaha..."
