Chapter 83 The priceless treasure of Chinese football (guaranteed
After Ji Ming scored this time, he declined the request of his teammates to come up to celebrate! He went to the front of the coaching bench, and then made a pacifier sucking gesture towards his boss and godfather Chang Sheng.
Everyone knows what this action means.
He dedicated this goal to his boss!
Congratulations to his boss on the birth of his son!
After the other teammates came up, they all imitated Ji Ming's actions to celebrate the goal. Then everyone laughed and rushed to Chang Sheng and hugged him.
※※※
Compared with the joy and warmth here at Lazio, Manchester United seems to be in hell.
Ji Ming's goal did constitute a second blow to Manchester United's morale.
And what's worse than last time is that this time there is not much time left for Manchester United!
This loss is even more fatal.
If they had more time, they could launch an attack, score again, and take the lead in the total score.
And time can allow them to take it easy.
Now that time is short, they can no longer take their time. The attack will be unorganized and they will rush forward, completely forgetting about the space behind them.
Lazio is a team that is very good at defensive counterattacks. If you let them start a counterattack, who knows what will happen!
No matter how you think about it, Manchester United's future seems bleak, with no hope at all.
This atmosphere of despair spread within the Manchester United team, and the jubilant cheers of Lazio fans at the Wanda Stadium were the catalyst.
Many Manchester United players have even lost the motivation to continue playing - what's the point of playing in a game with no victory or hope in sight?
At this time, perhaps the only one who didn't give up was their head coach Mourinho.
Mourinho was absolutely unwilling to be eliminated by Lazio because the total score was a draw!
Just because of an away goal, an away goal... Mourinho is not willing to give in!
There are less than ten minutes left, so what?
Mourinho's gambler temperament was on full display at this moment.
He used up the last two substitutions he had in one go.
Those who came on were all forwards, and those who came off were all defenders.
He has made a desperate move.
At this time, don't think about the issue of defensive goals. It doesn't make sense whether the total score of 33 is a loss or the total score of 34 is a loss.
The key is that they have to score goals!
In order to score goals, Mourinho worked hard!
As long as they can advance by one goal, they will win the bet!
After the first goal, immediately shrink the defense, and there should be less time. If we can't survive such a small amount of time, Manchester United deserves to die.
And even if Lazio also scores a goal, Manchester United will have a much easier time - the total score is tied and the away goals are tied, so it will be overtime. Psychologically at this time, Manchester United has the advantage.
Mourinho thinks so.
※※※
Just as Mourinho thought, when Lazio tied the total score, they immediately recovered their defense.
Messi and Cavani were replaced at the same time and replaced by two defensive players.
Lazio plans to defend this score.
But at the same time, Gotze and Ji Ming are still at the front. Their task is very simple, which is to fight back.
As long as there is a suitable opportunity, he will quickly counterattack with the ball and rely on his own personal ability to threaten Manchester United's goal.
By then, Manchester United will have a lot of space in the backcourt for them, and with their ability, it will not be a problem to threaten Manchester United's goal.
And Ji Ming has fully demonstrated his super personal ability in this game.
You can trust them with football.
Just relying on these two people, Lazio can threaten Manchester United.
※※※
In the next game, Manchester United pressed Lazio and it looked like it was at Manchester United's home court.
Lazio, on the other hand, shrank its defense and counterattacked from time to time, which made Manchester United very uncomfortable.
Three minutes into stoppage time, Lazio's substitute players were standing on the sidelines, ready to go in to celebrate promotion.
On the Manchester United side, Mourinho was still standing on the sidelines, eyes fixed on the court.
Not willing to give up any hope.
In fact, even his assistants and Manchester United's substitute players may have given up, thinking that they had no chance.
But Mourinho didn't.
Even if it was only for a second, he was unwilling to admit defeat.
In a duel with Chang Sheng, he cannot afford to lose!
It's a pity that fate did not favor him. Although he was very tenacious, he lost to a genius.
Tactical disciplines are regular and followable. You can restrain the opponent, and the opponent can restrain you.
But this kind of thing about genius...it's really hard to say, it's too unreasonable.
You don't know when this genius will break out, and you don't know how he will break out. You have no countermeasures at all, so you can only passively defend, rely on experience, and rely on luck.
But this time, unfortunately, luck was not on his side, and experience was of no use to Ji Ming, a genius.
When the referee blew the full-time whistle, cheers filled the Wanda Stadium. When they lost 1:3 in the first round at Old Trafford, many people felt that their chances of advancing were slim.
, depends on luck.
So their cheers are particularly energetic now, and they feel like they are reborn after a disaster.
Amid their cheers, Mourinho kept his previous posture, with his head slightly raised and his mouth raised! His expression was very serious.!
This may be the only action he can take to express his unwillingness.
He didn't lower his head, even though it was just an ordinary action. He didn't want others to think he was bowing his head and admitting defeat.
Then he went on the field to comfort his players.
This game was also a big blow to those players.
How happy they were when they beat the opponent 3:1 in the first round.
They thought they could get past Lazio and reach the semifinals.
Who would have thought that this away trip would turn out to be their last Champions League game of the season.
※※※
At the end of the game, the substitute players on the sidelines rushed onto the court, ran, hugged, cheered, and celebrated.
Ji Ming was among them. He kept waving his fists, hugging and high-fiving his teammates.
There was a camera reporter beside him, carrying a heavy camera, and the lens was always pointed at him.
Close-up, close-up·In addition to close-up, it is still close-up.
This kind of treatment is because he is the best in this game.
Everyone knows that Ji Ming is the biggest contributor, or even the only contributor, to Lazio's advancement to the semifinals.
In the first round, with Chang Sheng absent from the game and Lazio trailing Manchester United 0:3, it was Ji Ming's goal before the end of the game that preserved the team's hope of advancement.
Looking back now, if it hadn't been for Ji Ming's goal, Lazio would have been eliminated in the end even though they scored two goals in this game.
In the first round, he kept the team's hope of advancement.
In the second round, he dominated the game by himself.
When the team was unable to start the game, he relied on his super personal ability to turn the tide on his own, scoring two goals to pull Lazio back from the edge of the cliff, and then kicked Manchester United off the cliff.
Looking at Ji Ming in the camera, the Italian commentator said: "If there is a best example of a star deciding the outcome of a game and the fate of two teams, I think it is the person in front of me.
The 20-year-old Ji has fully demonstrated his abilities. He is the protagonist of this game. All other players and coaches in this game have become his supporting roles and foils. It is amazing!"
"This is a priceless treasure of Chinese football! Thank you Chang Sheng! Thank you Lazio! You have trained such an excellent player for us! Please cherish him and take care of him. Such a person should be enshrined like a Bodhisattva!" Chinese commentator
The member was also quite excited, he said emotionally.
Chang Sheng appeared in the camera. Chang Sheng grabbed Ji Ming, pulled him over and gave him a strong bear hug.
Chang Sheng praised Ji Ming in this way.
This game is indeed difficult for Lazio, but fortunately they have Ji Ming.

At the post-match press conference, Mourinho pouted and said words that refused to admit defeat. In any case, he was just making excuses for his own failure, and he absolutely refused to admit that he had lost.
He cannot admit it, even though his actions now will make many people despise him, thinking that he has no gentlemanly manners, cannot afford to lose, and has delusions of being persecuted...
But this is an important factor in his success.
Because he will find many reasons to excuse himself, but he just refuses to admit failure.
In his opinion, once he admits failure, he will lose his temper.
Because failure is a kind of inertia, admitting failure is also a terrible inertia.
Since you admit it once, you will admit it a second time, a third time, and more times. Admitting failure can also gain a good reputation in public opinion. Therefore, the cost of admitting failure is reduced, and failure in the eyes of these people is also less important.
But that's it, it's no big deal.
Mourinho is unwilling to admit defeat and would rather let himself be scolded by the world than let go. This is his personal fighting principle.
He would rather be a notorious fighter than be assimilated by that "gentlemanly manner" and become one of them.
Life is a battle. If life doesn't stop, you have to fight endlessly.
Mourinho ridiculed at the post-match press conference that Chang Sheng could only win with his godson. From a tactical point of view, he was the victor in this game. If not for Ji Ming's sudden outburst, the one who would advance now is
Manchester United.
The implication is that I am incompetent to win all the time, so what does it mean to rely on the players’ inspiration? That is not the head coach’s credit at all!
Chang Sheng retorted at the post-match press conference later, saying that being able to make good use of these talented players, fully tap their potential, and create a suitable environment for their personal performance is also one of the responsibilities of a head coach.
One, there is nothing to criticize.
Mourinho looks down upon him so much, which only shows his short-sightedness.
The media are used to two people spitting at each other all day long.
Some people even gave the relationship between the two of them a very passionate name, called "Until the End of the World."
This means that these two people will continue to quarrel until the end of the world.
This is their relationship.
No one should be too surprised.
There is no need to judge who is right and who is wrong. These two people are controversial figures, and there is no concept of right or wrong. If you argue about who is right and who is wrong, it is just a joke...
