Golden Greenery

Pedro Barbosa grinned and was in pain like a third grandson. Zhuoyang was sweating profusely and hugged his right foot to help him stretch his muscles.

"How's it going, Old Rabbit... Brother, are you feeling better?"

"Ouch, it's much better, but it hurts me so much. Zhuoyang, thank you -~~~~, my left leg, my left leg is also cramped, ah~~~"

Zhuo Yang quickly dropped Barbosa's right foot, then picked up his left leg and propped it up.

"Ouch, it hurts..., come on, come on, my right leg is cramping again, ah——~~"

Zhuoyang was so anxious that he was running around in circles, his legs were keeping him very busy, and he looked up to the sky and shouted: "Someone help me quickly -"

It wasn't until Sporting Lisbon players and team doctors swarmed in that Zhuo Yang was liberated. He glanced at Barbosa with a little sympathy, then walked to his own half with his head lowered: This is even more tiring than the confrontation, and it's also No one said thank you. He muttered in a low voice: You're welcome!

In the 65th minute, the exhausted Barbosa was replaced by No. 9 Romanian forward Marius Niculai. Sporting Lisbon fell behind and had to strengthen its attack. Uncle Jurgen Klopp also made adjustments on this side, with Swiss youngster Tranquino Barnetta replacing veteran Cobra Illie. This is a signal of appropriate recovery. In the counterattack, Barnetta is better than Illie in connecting and coordinating the midfielder and forward.

After Barbosa went down, the person standing in front of Zhuo Yang was Brazilian Rosenbach.

Fabio Rosenback is 24 years old this year. He is hailed by the Brazilian media as 'the only tough guy in the Brazilian national team after Dunga'. He is also called 'the Brazilian international with the roughest footwork in history'. This shows that he style of play.

Rosenbach became Barcelona's main defensive midfielder before he was 20 years old. However, the new coach Rijkaard did not appreciate him at all. In July 2003, Barcelona Football Club paid 6 million euros, plus Fabio O. Rosenbach was loaned to Sporting Lisbon for three years in exchange for Ricardo Quaresma.

As a result, Rosenbach became the best player in the Portuguese Super League last season.

To be honest, Rosenbach was easier to deal with than Barbosa. After all, it took Zhuoyang most of the game to seize the opportunity in front of Barbosa. As for Rosenbach, Zhuoyang quickly discovered his weakness.

When Zhuo Yang has the ball at his feet, Rosenbach is an extremely difficult character, but if Zhuo Yang only does wide-scale running and support without the ball, Rosenbach will not be able to keep up. Because of the familiarity and tacit understanding with his teammates, and even more so because of his prestige in the team, Zhuoyang now does not need to have the ball at his feet to command the team. Repeated running and interspersing can also lead the team's offense and defense.

Everyone is surrounding him.

In the 74th minute, Sporting Lisbon launched an exquisite offensive, with a series of short passes that penetrated to the left side of Madibao's penalty area. Sporting's right back Tello suddenly volleyed from a small angle. Handanovic was ready to take a good posture. Just waiting to be properly confiscated.

Unexpectedly, Rogerio stretched out his leg before the front post and shot two meters in front of the goal. Seeing that Madibao could not escape this disaster, perhaps it was Zhuoyang's "Bethune Spirit" that saved his character just now. The football accidentally hit the near post, and it was Rock Dras who got the ball.

Madibau immediately launched a counterattack, using a hot knife to cut cold butter. Zepek and Hamsik reached Ibisevic in three strokes, five divisions and two. The Bosnian young man used his body to hold Lisbon center back Inaka El through a low pass from the left. Goalkeeper Ricardo knocked the ball down but did not touch the ball. There was only a lone Zhuo Yang standing 8 meters in front of the goal.

When Zhuo Yang smiled and hit the goal with a gentle push into the empty net, Rosenbach, who was supposed to follow him, was so far gone that he disappeared.

3:1, the overall situation is established, Madibao will win the UEFA Cup for two consecutive years. There are teams that have won the UEFA Cup back-to-back, but not many.

Sporting Lisbon could only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor, using Cameroon forward Duadu to replace Rogelio, who just missed the equalizer opportunity, and playing with four forwards on the field. Uncle Zha made targeted adjustments, and Sasha Ritter replaced Hamsik, who performed well in this game. The highly intelligent Ritter moved to the left back to restrict the Romanian Tello, who was a bit arrogant today, while Schaefer moved to the center to form a three-center back with Rock and Pengpeng.

Five defenders intercepted four forwards, and Uncle Zha had no intention of leaving any gaps for Sporting Lisbon. This is called airtight.

The Swiss Barnetta is indeed a good counterattacker. He disturbs Sporting Lisbon by standing in a neither-center nor forward position. But when the speed increases, no one can keep up with his opponents. In just a few minutes, Banetta's attack created two good shooting opportunities for Ibisevic, but both were resolved by Ricardo. Even so, Ibisevic's shot also won Madibau a corner kick in the 85th minute.

There was not much time left for the two-goal lead. Madibao did not swarm over to bully others, but just the midfielder and frontcourt plus Pengpeng. Banetta's reverse arc corner kick was blocked by Pengpeng and Khedira who took off from the front point to compete for the top. Although they failed to touch the ball due to the interference of the opponent's tall defender, they dazzled the eyes of Portuguese goalkeeper Ricardo .

In a hurry, Ricardo did not dare to confiscate the football, so he could only punch the football out of the penalty area with both fists in the air, and the ball flew directly outside the top of the arc.

When Banetta was about to take a corner kick, Zhuoyang began to sneak out of the penalty area in advance, sneaking around without anyone noticing. When he exited far away, Ricardo's football hit just in front of him. Lisbon knew nothing about the power of prediction. Rosenbach was still looking for someone in the penalty area.

Without waiting for the football to hit the ground, Zhuoyang raised his leg and shot. The hard part is comfortable and the force is sufficient. Falling like fallen leaves, as lonely as shooting stars, the tips of Ricardo's rising fingers would touch a little fur.

Just like that, the football hit the lower edge of the crossbar and bounced back into the penalty area. Ibisevic, who worked very hard throughout the game, stretched out his foot and poked it. There is always a reward for fair efforts in the world.

4:1, no one can steal this championship from Madiburg again. Ibisevic danced off the field, and was replaced by Mad Dog Rand. Until he sat on the bench, the Bosnian kid was still grinning endlessly, looking silly.

.

Blue and white confetti were flying in the sky. Madiburg became the first German team to win the UEFA Cup for consecutive years. Sporting Lisbon failed to become the fifth club to win the European Cup at home, and the rich night couldn't cover it up. The gloom in the eyes of the Portuguese. Six thousand Hannover fans celebrated arrogantly in the stands, which could almost trigger a war between the German and Portuguese teams.

UEFA President Swede Johansson put a gold medal around Zhuo Yang's neck to symbolize the championship. This is the second consecutive year that he has awarded Zhuo Yang an award.

"Zhuoyang, are you interested in letting me present you with an award next year?" Johansson smiled and patted Zhuoyang's face.

"Okay, then we've made a deal, Mr. Chairman." This kind of conversation seemed to have happened once at this time last year.

UEFA executive committee member Michel Platini said: "Congratulations, Zhuoyang."

"Thank you, dear Mr. Platini!"

.

Zhuo Yang and his teammates celebrated the championship in the center of the field. Amidst the hustle and bustle, Zhuo Yang turned his head thoughtfully and looked at the floor-to-ceiling window of the VIP box above the main stand. However, through the reflective glass and the dazzling stadium lights, he could not See something clearly. He didn't know that there was a pair of crystal clear eyes in that window that had been looking at him for a full 90 minutes, and their bright eyes never left his figure for a moment.

At this moment, those eyes showed the radiance of hope, which was connected with his gaze from a distance.
