Chapter 120 The Top of Europe! (End of the previous volume)

Tang Zheng created a penalty kick and Cristiano Ronaldo made the penalty kick. The score became Real Madrid 3:1. With three minutes left in overtime, Real Madrid had already secured the victory.

Atletico Madrid head coach Simeone, who was still very motivated before, now looks extremely sluggish. It is not difficult to see that he was defeated by Real Madrid's goal that sealed the victory.

The same is true for the Atletico Madrid fans in the stands. Their dull eyes make people feel distressed.

Although the penalty kick that sealed Real Madrid's goal was scored by Cristiano Ronaldo, who also scored his 16th goal in the Champions League this season, the close-up shot shown by the on-site director was Tang Zheng who contributed the penalty kick.

Tang Zheng played in all the Champions League matches for Real Madrid this season and contributed astonishingly, with ten goals and fifteen assists. If penalty kicks created in the Champions League were not counted as assists, Tang Zheng's assist numbers would have reached an astonishing sixteen times.

How many goals has Real Madrid scored so far in the Champions League this season?

Forty-three goals!

Tang Zheng directly contributed 25 goals!

The direct contribution rate is as high as 58%!

You must know that those indirect assists and offensive planning are not included. In other words, Real Madrid can reach this point this season, especially when Real Madrid is extremely far away from the Champions League championship. It was Tang Zheng who scored the unparalleled goal. Ball, Tang Zheng's role is extremely obvious.

What's more important is that Tang Zheng's role is not only reflected on the offensive end, but also on the defensive end.

If there were full-game statistics now, Tang Zheng would at least rank among the top three in the game, not to mention his first place on the defensive end.

For such a player, the total price of 125 million euros is not expensive at all!

Giving Tang Zheng a close-up shot when Real Madrid secured the victory was nothing short of perfect!

Immediately, the broadcast screen showed Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored twice in this game.

Cristiano Ronaldo smiled and turned to hug his teammates.

Although both goals in this game were effortless, they both tested the players' running ability and psychological quality.

There is no doubt that Cristiano Ronaldo totally passes!

"Ouch-ouch——"

Listening to the huge cheers erupting from the Stadium of Light, Cristiano Ronaldo waved his arms excitedly.

This stadium is not the home stadium of his parent club Sporting Lisbon, but it is the city where his parent team is located. Therefore, the Stadium of Light, the venue for this season’s Champions League final, was crowded with many Sporting Lisbon fans.

In addition, the Stadium of Light is Portugal’s place, and Cristiano Ronaldo is Portugal’s number one star and the biggest contributor to the Portuguese national team’s advancement to the World Cup in Brazil, so there are a large number of fans at the Stadium of Light.

If you listen carefully, you can hear sporadic but neat shouts: "——Cristiano!!"

Cristiano Ronaldo, who helped Real Madrid score two goals, was obviously in a good mood. He waved to the local fans in the area holding high the Portuguese flag and thanked them for their cheers.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who was walking towards his own half, stretched out his right hand towards Tang Zheng again: "Thank you very much, my good friend!"

Tang Zheng smiled and held Cristiano Ronaldo's right hand, patted his shoulder with his left hand and said, "This is a reflection of your ability and has nothing to do with me."

Many commentators who saw this scene began to lament that although Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo were not incompatible at the beginning of the 2013-2014 season, they at least had no connection, so that Real Madrid lost too many points in the early stages of the league, otherwise this season Real Madrid is likely to win the Triple Crown!

The score has become 3:1, and there are less than three minutes left in overtime. With the current mental state and physical fitness of Atletico Madrid players, it is difficult to equalize the score, so there is no suspense for Real Madrid to win the double crown this season.

※※※

The game starts again,

Atletico Madrid players, who had the advantage of kicking off, had no fighting spirit at all, and the football was intercepted by Real Madrid players within a few passes.

Fortunately, the Real Madrid players, who are leading by two goals, have no desire to attack. After all, everyone is in the same city. There is no need to rush to kill everyone. The advantage of two goals can already determine the final Champions League champion.

Atletico Madrid head coach Simeone was still squatting on the grass, pursed his lips, looking at the court, but he didn't know what he was thinking...

Not far away, Real Madrid coach Ancelotti was in a very good mood. He once thought that the team would miss the league championship. As a result, Tang Zheng scored a tie goal at the end of stoppage time, and then assisted Cristiano Ronaldo to score. The victory was sealed for the second time.

Although he was still chewing gum mechanically, you could tell that he was in a very good mood.

The third Champions League championship trophy of my coaching career is coming soon!

Real Madrid's substitute players put their shoulders on each other's shoulders. Compared with the uneasiness of the injury time at the end of regular time, their current mood is simply unparalleled. They jumped on the spot, waiting for the referee Kuppers to blow the whistle. The whistle blows at the end of the game, and then rushes to the court to share the rare victory with the players on the court!

The Real Madrid fans in the stands were in a happy mood. They put their shoulders to each other like the Real Madrid substitutes in front of the visiting team's bench. They didn't care whether the people next to them recognized them or not, and then jumped on the spot.

The on-site director was very experienced, and even when the quality of the game was not good, it was conveyed to the stands where the Real Madrid fans were.

The images displayed on the broadcast screen were very visually impactful. The Real Madrid fans jumping up and down with their shoulders on their shoulders gave people a sense of the mountains falling apart and the earth shaking, which was quite shocking.

The fanatical atmosphere at the Stadium of Light did not decrease as time went by. On the contrary, it became more and more fanatical, like boiling water.

"Beep~beep~beep~~"

Just fifteen minutes into the second half of overtime, the referee Kuppers blew two short and one long whistles to end the game.

At the same time, Tang Zheng, who was still preparing for a long pass, put down his right foot, then gently lifted the football up with his toes, took a step forward with his left foot, swung his right foot up again to keep up, and kicked it hard.

The football made a muffled sound and flew into the sky due to the force.

Like other Real Madrid players, Tang Zheng ignored the football. He raised his arms excitedly, waved them vigorously a few times, and then hugged his teammates Modric, Isco, Cristiano Ronaldo and others.

The Real Madrid players in front of the visiting team's bench opened their arms and swarmed forward, enjoying the hard-won super reversal with the eleven teammates on the field!

Not many people paid attention to the disappointed Atletico Madrid players who were lying or sitting on the grass of the Stadium of Light. They were very disappointed. This game was like a bolt from the blue to many of them and it was difficult to accept it.

At this time, Atletico Madrid coach Simeone stood up and walked to the court with a heavy heart.

Because he is the head coach of the team and the soul of Atletico Madrid. Even if the game is difficult to accept, he has his own responsibility.

Comfort the frustrated team members.

But before Simeone entered the stadium, he met Ancelotti who came up to shake hands ceremoniously. Simeone, who was in a bad mood, did not forget the etiquette, but he was not in the mood to chat with Ancelotti, so he touched and let go and then comforted the players. .

Ancelotti didn't care, he could understand Simeone. Wasn't that the case in the 2004-2005 Champions League final?

Leading by three goals in the first half, Liverpool scored three goals in nine minutes in the second half and lost on penalties.

I can relate to that feeling of loss.

※※※

Tang Zheng hugged his teammates one by one, including coach Ancelotti, Clement and Zidane.

Immediately, instead of thanking the fans with his teammates while UEFA staff set up a simple podium, he walked towards his mentor Simeone.

Although Tang Zheng has never lost the Champions League, he can understand the bad mood of his mentor Simeone.

After Simeone comforted the players on the field, he put his hands on his hips and faced the Atletico Madrid fans who refused to leave.

To be honest, he felt sorry for this group of lovely fans.

At that time, there was not much regular game time left, and his flamboyant personality was fully revealed, fully inciting the excitement of the fans.

The result... Tang Zheng scored a perfect catch at the last moment of stoppage time and hit the head.

The most uncomfortable feeling for a person is from heaven to hell. These lovely Atletico Madrid players experienced it precisely because of his instigation.

The moment Simeone made up his mind, there was a hand in front of him.

Instinctively, he looked up.

It was the disciple he loved and hated, Tang Zheng.

Tang Zheng looked at the speechless and angry expression of his mentor Simone and suddenly grinned. While extending his right hand, he patted Simone's left shoulder with his left hand: "Shake hands, teacher."

"Do you know that your smile is ugly?" Simone rolled his eyes at Tang Zheng and said after a long time.

Having said that, Simone still stretched out his right hand and took hold of Tang Zheng's extended right hand.

"Hehe." Tang Zheng hugged him and patted Simone's back with his left hand: "I'm sorry for making you sad again."

"Hmph!" Simeone snorted: "This season will make you proud. The Champions League champion next season will definitely be Atletico Madrid!"

"I trust you!"

As soon as Tang Zheng finished speaking, he said playfully: "The prerequisite is that we don't run into Real Madrid."

"..."

It was indeed gratifying to see his favorite disciple Tang Zheng lead Real Madrid to win the Champions League, but the team Real Madrid defeated was Atletico Madrid, which he coached. He felt very uncomfortable, so he didn't have much thought to talk to Tang Zheng, so he sighed and clapped his hands with his left hand. He put his hand on Tang Zheng's shoulder and said, "Let's talk about next season next season. Enjoy the hard-won victory and championship."

At the end of the sentence, Simeone said in a very graceful and emphatic tone: "Don, I am very proud of the fact that I dug you out!"

When Tang Zheng heard this, his smile suddenly stopped, and then he hugged his mentor Simone forcefully.

Then he stopped talking and watched his mentor Simone turn around and leave.

※※※

As Simeone returned to the home team's coaching bench, Tang Zheng also walked to the area where Real Madrid fans were, walked to the stands of his parents and girlfriend, received the five-star red flag that had been prepared, and like other teammates, draped the flag behind him.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Coentrao were draped in Portuguese flags, and the local fans in the stands were particularly excited and shouted loudly.

Marcelo and Casemiro are draped in Brazilian flags, Modric is draped in Croatian flags, Carvajal and Ramos are draped in Spanish flags, Varane and Benzema are draped in French flags...

Not long after, UEFA staff set up a simple championship podium on the podium.

The live broadcast immediately sounded and all the players of Atletico Madrid, the UEFA Champions League runner-up in the 2013-2014 season, came to the stage to receive the award.

Although the Atletico Madrid players were sad, they did not show any disrespect under the spotlight. They followed captain Gabi to the stairs, accepted the silver medal award from UEFA President Platini, and said some encouraging words.

The one who walked at the back was undoubtedly the head coach Simeone. UEFA President Platini even put his arms around Simeone's neck and said several words.

Obviously, Simeone was not in a good mood. After shaking hands with Platini politely, he followed the players in front of him and walked back to the court from the other end with the silver medal in his right hand.

Immediately, Real Madrid players took the stage one after another to receive the championship medals.

The first person to take the stage was head coach Ancelotti. Leading Real Madrid to win the Champions League this time was the third time in his coaching career that he led the team to win the Champions League. He also became the second person in the history of the Champions League to lead the team to win the Champions League three times. Championship head coach.

Before that, it was Bob Paisley, Liverpool's meritorious head coach, who won three Champions League titles in five years.

However, Ancelotti is the first head coach to lead his team to three Champions League titles since the Champions League was restructured, and deserves everyone's respect.

Followed closely by Spanish players such as Morata, Carvajal, and Illarramendi, Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo, the Real Madrid twins, naturally walked at the back of the team.

Tang Zheng won the Champions League with the home team for two consecutive seasons, and he was also elected as the best player of the match. UEFA President Platini specially pulled Tang Zheng and talked to him affectionately for a long time.

When Cristiano Ronaldo, who walked at the back, accepted the championship medal, the Real Madrid fans at the Stadium of Light became more and more excited, and the atmosphere was extremely fanatical.

They know that the most exciting moment is coming!

UEFA President Platini walked up to the impatient Real Madrid players in front of the podium, holding the two big ears of the Champions League trophy in his hands.

Of course, Real Madrid players are all players who have seen big storms. Although they are looking forward to it, they are not particularly anxious.

"UEFA President Platini is already holding the Champions League trophy. Real Madrid captain Casillas should make room!" CCTV commentator He Wei looked at Casillas in the broadcast screen and moved to the right side of the screen. He took a position and smiled: "He will take over the Champions League championship trophy from the hands of UEFA President Platini in the next few seconds! This is a long-lost trophy for Real Madrid fans! Eleven years! Eleven years apart!!”

Platini handed the Champions League trophy to Casillas. Casillas and Ramos next to him suppressed their excitement and calmly each stretched out one hand to receive the Champions League trophy.

Then, lift it high!

At the same time, the Champions League theme song played on the broadcast at the Stadium of Light, and the paper spray machines set up on both sides of the podium sprayed countless white confetti in the main color of Real Madrid's home jersey.

White confetti fluttered in the wind, and the on-site director slowly moved to a long shot.

Other Real Madrid players received the Champions League trophy one by one and then kissed it excitedly.

At the bottom of the broadcast screen, there is a row of subtitles: 2013-2014 European Champions League champion - Real Madrid!
