UEFA officials were all sitting in the VIP seats, and TV cameras frequently focused on them, giving them close-ups.
This is the top figure in European football.
They are in charge of the life and death of many teams.
Many teams would bow their heads in front of them.
But there are always people who want to break authority and rules.
Chang Sheng and his Lazio are one of them.
Since the current UEFA leadership team came to power, Lazio has become a thorn in UEFA's side and a thorn in its flesh.
They frequently made moves against Chang Sheng and Lazio.
Under their pressure in the past few years, Lazio missed the Champions League title for four consecutive seasons.
But this season, UEFA tried its best to prevent Lazio from reaching the Champions League final.
Now they are pinning their hopes on Paris Saint-Germain.
If Paris Saint-Germain can defeat Lazio in the Champions League final, then this newly emerging giant will be the focus of UEFA's support.

When UEFA officials appeared on the big screen, Lazio fans collectively booed.
If half of the fans booed at the same time, it would be quite a momentum.
The TV broadcast was concerned that the world would not be in chaos, so the camera immediately cut to the VIP seats.
I want to see the expressions of UEFA officials...
Sure enough, no one's expression was good-looking.
The sudden booing startled them.
When they realized that the boos were directed at them, their faces became even more ugly.
So they don't like Lazio. From the club president, to the coaches and players, to the ordinary fans, this team is a group of annoying guys!
This makes them want PSG to win even more.
Manuel has confidence and they have confidence in him.

After the necessary ceremony, the players from both sides stood on the court according to their respective positions.
Just waiting for the game to start.
After the referee determined the time, he blew the whistle to start the game.
Amid thunderous applause and cheers, the 2922 Champions League final began!
Manuel stood on the sidelines with his hands in his pockets, staring nervously at the court. This was his first Champions League final. To say he wasn't nervous at all would be a lie.
What is completely different from him is Chang Sheng. Not counting this time, Chang Sheng has led his team to the Champions League finals ten times, and won the championship nine times, with a winning rate of 90%, which is very scary. What scene in the finals did he
Never seen it?
So Chang Sheng was sitting on the coach's bench, crossing his legs and not feeling like he was leading the team to the Champions League final.
People who don’t know this might think this is just an ordinary league game.
Chang Sheng's action of crossing his legs on the coaching bench was once criticized by many people, who believed that he did not respect his opponents enough.
And what Chang Sheng wants is this effect.
His disrespect will anger his opponent and make him lose his cool.
How about the media commenting that Chang Sheng is a coach who is very good at making use of details?
Even a sitting position can be used by Chang Shengli as a psychological warfare offensive.
However, in this game, Chang Sheng did not intend to use this action to anger Manuel.
Because Manuel is not qualified enough to use psychological warfare.
He simply thinks that this action is comfortable to sit on - he completely treats the coaching bench as a sofa at home.

Facts have proved that there is a reason why winning is so easy.
In terms of strength alone, Paris Saint-Germain is really no match for Lazio.
PSG and Lazio both have reasons why they must win.
But the degree of belief that they must win is still superior to Lazio.
How to prove it?
Seven minutes and thirty seconds into the game, Lazio scored!
Cavani jumped high in the air and smashed Messi's cross into the Paris Saint-Germain goal!
"Edinson Cavani - tenth goal! He has tied Stewart! Now the two of them are tied for the top scorer list! Stewart's Chelsea has been eliminated. No one can compete with Cavani now.
Damn it, as long as Cavani scores another goal in the game, he will be the top scorer in the Champions League!"
Cavani, who scored the goal, was also very excited. He rushed to the coaching bench and hugged Chang Sheng. He wanted to dedicate this goal to his boss.
As a farewell gift to the boss.
Other players swarmed over and surrounded the two of them.

While Lazio celebrated their first goal wildly, the PSG players looked frustrated.
The head coach Manuel on the sidelines even held his head in his hands, feeling very upset.
Conceding the goal at the start, there really is no worse start than this!
"Lazio 1: Leading Paris Saint-Germain! The game didn't even last ten minutes! Lazio had a perfect start! But the next game will be difficult for Paris Saint-Germain!"
In this game, Manuel actually adopted a defensive counterattack tactic. Paris Saint-Germain already attached great importance to defense, but they still lost the ball in the seventh minute of the game...
I have to say, Lazio is really strong!
Since Manuel has studied Lazio so hard, it is impossible that he does not know the term "Lazio rhythm".
As long as Lazio takes the lead, the game will enter their rhythm. This is the so-called "Lazio rhythm"!
This kind of rhythm is the most deadly for many teams.
In addition, there is a "law" to this rhythm, that is, the earlier the "Lazio rhythm" appears, the more threatening it is.
Someone else has summarized it.
For example, if Lazio scores first within the first five minutes, then Lazio's winning rate in this game is as high as 100%, and they have never missed a goal.
And when Lazio scored within the first ten minutes, the winning rate reached 98.2%, almost 100%.
So there is no difference between scoring in the first five minutes and scoring in the first ten minutes.
It's all Lazio's win!
Now seven minutes into the game, Lazio scored.
According to previous statistics, Lazio will basically win this game...
Is Paris Saint-Germain still struggling?
Manuel chose to continue the defensive counterattack.
He believes that after being scored by Lazio, the most important thing is not to attack in a panic and try to equalize the score. That is the wrong approach.
Instead, you should continue to defend.
Make sure not to concede a second goal.
If we only concede one goal, there is still hope even if there are ten minutes left in the game.
But if you lose two goals, there is really nothing you can do to recover.
Lazio's defense will only allow you to score one goal at most, which is enough to show that your offense is very good.
Still want to score two goals in a row at the last minute? Dream on!

The game restarted and PSG continued to defend and counterattack.
Their approach made the UEFA officials in the VIP seats nod approvingly.
Originally, Lazio scored first, which made them very unhappy.
They were worried that Paris Saint-Germain would be like those other teams who were panicked after being scored by Lazio and didn't know what to do.
That will only make you lose faster and more miserably.
Now PSG have made a very right choice.
This also allowed UEFA officials to regain some confidence in Paris Saint-Germain.
This is the right thing to do.
They look forward to Paris Saint-Germain's showdown with Lazio in the final stages of the game.
But just like they have been disappointed countless times this season, they are destined to be disappointed this time.
Ten minutes after Lazio scored the first goal, in the 18th minute of the game, Lazio scored again!
Even if Paris Saint-Germain tried its best to defend, it could not stop Lazio's attack.
"20! Lazio leads Paris Saint-Germain by two goals! Although it is not polite to say this! But there is no suspense in this game! Lazio has never lost a game with a two-goal lead!"
"Paris is finished! They fell behind by two goals to Lazio in the Champions League final. Even if it's not Lazio, it's some other team that will have a hard time coming back when they're two goals behind!"
After Lazio scored, the entire commentary box was full of voices saying "Paris is finished".
Even the French commentator had to lament: "Lazio is too strong. Paris Saint-Germain has done its best, but it still can't compete with them! It seems that only Lazio itself can defeat them...
After the end of this season, General Chang will leave Lazio. Only then will Lazio turn from prosperity to decline... There were no Champions League championships for four consecutive seasons, and no league championship for three consecutive seasons. Two consecutive seasons without a championship can be regarded as...
Decline? It doesn’t count! It doesn’t count at all!”
Even their opponents said this, which shows that Lazio is so powerful that it can convince their opponents.
※※※
Manuel looked ashen after conceding the second goal.
He is not an idiot, he knows very well that this score has sentenced him and his team to death.
Trailing by two goals, Paris Saint-Germain had no chance at all.
With Lazio's two-goal lead, all tactics were meaningless.
This is a gap in absolute strength that cannot be made up by any tactical strategy.
Although he was very reluctant, in fact the Champions League final between him and Paris Saint-Germain ended in only eighteen minutes.
He lowered his head.
※※※
When Manuel lowered his head, it was in the VIP seat above him.
A group of UEFA officials also looked very ugly.
When PSG chose to continue to defend, they thought it was the right choice. PSG could rely on defense to deal with Lazio.
But unexpectedly, in just ten minutes, Paris Saint-Germain lost another goal...
How can we still play this game?
Officials want to scold me.
But they couldn't curse out loud yet, so they could only hold it in their hearts.
I almost suffered internal injuries from being suppressed!
It's so frustrating.

When Messi scored the team's second goal, Chang Sheng finally stood up from his seat, applauded and walked to the sidelines.
This goal gave Lazio their third title of the season.
