Lazio scored one goal after another, and Gamba Osaka was completely stunned.
Lazio led 4:0 before the end of the first half!
The Japanese commentators have been basically silent.
In such a competition, they didn't know what to say.
Lazio did play well, but because of the recent trend of public opinion, they can't praise Lazio.
So they can only remain silent.
However, the Japanese fans in the stands did not stop and continued to boo.
They have a bushido spirit, and they must persist in fighting even if they know that they will die if they are defeated.
This spirit is quite admirable.
But coupled with their arrogant shouting before, it seems particularly ridiculous now.
The Japanese are like this. At first they are arrogant and provocative, but when they find that they are going to be beaten into a pig head, they will start to show their bushido spirit...
Chang Sheng has no interest in their bushido spirit.
He didn't care about the boos from the fans. He just wanted to create the best background music for a hearty victory.
※※※
During the halftime break, there seemed to be some silence in Gamba Osaka's locker room.
Everyone lowered their heads and remained silent.
This first half was a huge blow to them.
They lost four goals in the first half. They have not experienced this kind of game before.
But at the beginning of the first half, they had the idea of winning the opponent, but ended up losing four goals. They had never experienced such a game...
To put it bluntly, the psychological gap is too big.
Even the head coach of Gamba Osaka didn't know what to do.
He sat in his seat and kept stroking his hair with his hands.
※※※
The atmosphere on the Lazio side was very relaxed.
Chang Sheng told his players to play casually and relax in the second half. He had no other requirements.
If anyone thinks that winning often means giving up goals, then they are totally wrong.
In fact, the more relaxed the players are with Lazio's style of play, the better the effect will be.
Sure enough, in the second half, Lazio made persistent efforts and scored four more goals.
Same as the first half.
When Lazio scored the seventh goal, the boos at Tokyo National Arena finally disappeared.
Many Gamba Osaka fans left the venue early because they couldn't bear to watch any more.
This is a complete one-sided massacre!
In the short four-year history of the Club World Cup, there has never been a competition like this!
Gamba Osaka is also the champion of the Asian Champions League and, like Lazio, is the continental champion.
As a result, the Asian champion defeated the European champion like this!
"This game is cruel to every Gamba Osaka fan. It is also cruel to Asian football. Because this game fully proves the gap between the Asian champions and the European champions... Gamba Osaka
They are the champions of the AFC Champions League and represent the highest level of Asian football, but in front of Lazio, they are like three-year-old children who are powerless to fight back..."
the narrator said.
"Lazio did not save face for the host country at all... and what makes the host country feel embarrassed is that Lazio scored these eight goals very easily. Gamba Osaka almost did not pose any threat or interference to Lazio. It was as if it was a team game.
In the warm-up match, the Lazio players played very relaxedly, able to perform any coordination and dare to make any moves."
※※※
In the end, Lazio defeated Gamba Osaka 8:0 in Tokyo.
In the ninety-minute game, the opponent suffered eight net defeats, and Lazio once again demonstrated their terrifying offensive power.
But this is not the most important thing.
The most important thing is that in the process of eight goals appearing at once, Chang Sheng never showed the slightest excitement.
He would either stand on the sidelines with his hands in his pockets, or sit on the coach's bench with his legs crossed, and at most he would just applaud, which would be considered a celebration.
His behavior made those Japanese fans very unhappy.
Because Chang Sheng has used this score to show his disdain for Gamba Osaka and Japanese fans.
At the post-match press conference, Chang Sheng said to a group of Japanese reporters below: "How? I'm right, right? I said, I won't study Gamba Osaka, and I don't care whether they are Gamba Osaka or not.
Gamba Tokyo, this game from beginning to end. Every minute proves that what I said is right. So I don’t understand what you are so angry about?”
What Chang Sheng said made the Japanese reporter below blush, but not because he wanted to be ashamed, but because he was angry!
However, the Italian and Chinese reporters next to me seemed very calm.
This kind of winning game, but also mocking you, is a winning style.
"I told the truth that I have no interest in traveling to Japan. I told the truth. You are dissatisfied. I said that I don't care who my opponent is. I also told the truth that you are still dissatisfied. Are you satisfied now?"
Chang Sheng spread his hands and leaned on the back of the chair.
The Japanese reporter was so angry that one stood up on the spot and scolded Chang Sheng: "You lack the most basic respect for your opponent!"
"I respect my opponents," Chang Sheng said. "But are you opponents?"
The Japanese reporter who accused Chang Sheng never expected Chang Sheng's thinking to be like this... He didn't regard Gamba Osaka as his opponent at all!
Since he is not an opponent, there is no question of respect...
After saying that, Chang Sheng stood up with a smile and left the press conference.
※※※
After the game, the Japanese media continued to criticize Chang Sheng for his arrogance and arrogance.
But this could not change the result of their team being massacred by Lazio with eight goals.
Even if the teams participating in the Club World Cup are of different levels, losing eight goals in one game is too shocking...
A record that has never been achieved in the history of the Club World Cup!
The huge victory in this game seemed to confirm what Chang Sheng said at the Leonardo da Vinci Airport in Rome.
They are here just for the championship, and this championship belongs to them!
Lazio's opponent in the final was Ecuador's Sporting Universidad de Quito, the Copa Libertadores champions.
This team defeated Brazil's Fluminense on penalties.
Chang Sheng's attitude towards this team is completely different from his attitude towards Gamba Osaka.
South American football has a higher status in world football than Asian football.
At the pre-match press conference against Universidad Sport de Quito, Chang Sheng emphasized the importance they attach to their opponents, saying that their team would not be proud of their opponent just because they beat Gamba Osaka with eight goals in the semifinals.
"The semi-finals and finals will be two completely different games. We will prepare for the finals seriously."
Chang Sheng’s words made the Japanese media and fans even more unhappy. Damn it, fight us. You don’t take it to heart. You said Gamba Osaka is not your opponent. Now he is your fucking opponent against Universidad Sport de Quito.
Already?
If Gamba Osaka is not an opponent, then Universidad Sport de Quito is a shitty opponent!
They won the Copa Libertadores for the first time in history, and they won on penalties!
What kind of opponent is this team?
The Japanese media and fans were particularly unhappy.
Of course, Chang Sheng would not admit that he did this on purpose...
※※※
The match between Lazio and Sporting Universidad de Quito. It can be seen from the starting lineup alone that Chang Sheng obviously attaches more importance to this game.
All the main players who did not play in the last game against Gamba Osaka started.
The strength gap between the two sides is already huge, and with Lazio's huge victory over Japan's Gamba Osaka in the semifinals, morale is booming.
There is no suspense in this final.
Lazio finally defeated the Quito Sports University team 3:0 in Tokyo and successfully won the first Club World Cup championship in the club's history!
At the post-match press conference, Chang Sheng said that he never lied to others. He did what he said. He said he would come to win the championship, and he meant to come and win the championship.
As for other people's feelings, he doesn't care.
Some Japanese reporters are still entangled in the conflicts between Chang Sheng and Japanese fans.
Chang Sheng snorted: "I never pay attention to their opinions, because I am not Japanese."
After winning the championship, the entire Lazio team flew back to Italy that night. They didn't even stay in a hotel for one night.
Because there is no time.
Chang Sheng also had no time to respond to the Japanese media's criticism of him saying, "I never pay attention to their opinions because I am not Japanese."
But, of course, if he does this, the Japanese media will think that Chang Sheng is arrogant and has no regard for the Japanese.
They can again twist Chang Sheng's words to stir up emotions.
But as Chang Sheng said, he had no reason to be responsible for other people's feelings. His words aroused the dissatisfaction of the Japanese people. There was no need for him to make any apology or explanation. His arrogance made the Japanese very angry. This
As if that wasn't enough, he also took victory away from Japan.
In addition, what disappoints the southern media and columnists in China is that Chang Sheng has provoked Japan one after another, and has not seen the Sino-Japanese relations deteriorate as a result. It is really a pity...
※※※
Lazio returned with great honor and received a warm welcome from Lazio fans in Rome.
Chang Sheng did not issue any championship declaration, and the entire Lazio team did not call themselves a double-decker open-top bus or hold a parade to celebrate.
A Club World Cup, in everyone's mind, is far inferior to the league and the Champions League.
Moreover, Lazio still has games to play, and the task is very heavy.
When Lazio returned home, apart from their games, all other leagues were over.
Only Lazio's home game against Palermo remains.
This game will be the last game before the winter break.
Because Lazio drew with Udinese in the last round of the league, they were only one point ahead of Inter Milan.
Now they have one game less.
Inter Milan, who had already played seventeen rounds, defeated Siena 2:1 away from home in this round, so they are now two points ahead of Lazio, who have one game less, and are ranked first.
If Lazio cannot beat Palermo, then Inter Milan will win the winter break championship.
This is a good opportunity for Inter Milan to boost morale.
only……
Lazio is playing at home this round, and they have just won the Club World Cup, so their morale and condition seem to be fine.
Does Palermo have a chance to beat Lazio away from home? (To be continued...)
