The Day I Played with Ronaldo

Chapter 288: Celebration

When the plane landed at Milan International Airport, it was almost dawn, but when the players stepped out of the plane, they heard waves of cheers. When they came to the exit, they found themselves surrounded by a group of crazy fans. There were thousands of fans. Everyone waved scarves, flags, and slogans vigorously, singing "We are the champions" loudly.

When the players showed up, they stopped singing and started calling the players' names, shouting in unison: "Ronaldo!" "Zanetti!" "Adriano!" "Riccardo!"...Every time A player's name was called out by them, and no one was missed. And when it comes to Ronaldo and Ricardo, the voice is the loudest.

And when Captain Zanetti carefully lifted the Big Ears Cup and let it appear in front of the Inter Milan fans again after 40 years, the cheers reached its peak, and many elderly fans couldn't help but burst into tears .

Many of them, in their youth or even childhood, followed their parents to witness Inter Milan's two Champions League wins in the 1964 and 1965 seasons, which opened a glorious era. They also saw Inter Milan reach the final in 1972, only to lose to Ajax with Johan Cruyff.

But at this time they witnessed that Inter Milan once again stood on top of Europe. The new Inter Milan dynasty quietly opened.

Most of them have already married and had children, and their children have almost grown up. Undoubtedly, they will pass on their love for this club. Those young people present will carry this history and glory. Memory, and then pass it on to the next generation...

Infected by the atmosphere of the scene, the Inter Milan players have forgotten their fatigue and devoted themselves to interacting with the fans.

Under the arrangement of the airport security, the players of Inter Milan finally signed autographs and took photos for some of the fans, and they were not able to leave the airport until the sky was fully lit.

Back home, most people are undoubtedly sound asleep.

The same goes for Ricardo.

When he opened his eyes again,

Intuitively felt that it was already afternoon.

Shi Dela sat quietly on the head of the bed, looking directly at his face, but her eyes were a little erratic, obviously wandering away.

"You're awake." When Licado sat up, Shidela finally came to her senses and said calmly, "Congratulations, you are now the European champion."

"Thank you," Liccardo said with a smile, "Have you watched the game?"

"I went to sleep when I saw 3:1," Shidela's left hand was still hanging, "Did you receive my text message?"

"Received." Licado got out of bed, "Is there anything to eat in the refrigerator?"

"There is juice, there is whole wheat bread, and Lias prepared it for you. She asked me to tell you, she is very grateful to you, and all the members of the blue and black Milan thank you."

"No, I should thank them. Thank you for their support all the time." Licado found his sportswear and put it on neatly. "I'll go to train after I have something to eat. There will be a parade to celebrate winning the championship in the evening. Don’t have dinner at home, be careful at home, Milan may be a little chaotic these days, don’t go out, don’t open the door for others.”

"I know, I'm not a child anymore," Shidela pouted, "won't you take me to the celebration banquet?"

"The celebration banquet will not be held until after the Coppa Italia final. Today is just an ordinary dinner," Riccardo explained. "After the dinner, we will go to the celebration parade."

"I'll watch you on TV."

Although Inter Milan has celebrated the league championship in the past few seasons, the standard for celebrating the Champions League is undoubtedly higher.

Although many people say that during the period from the end of the 1980s to 2006, it was even more difficult to win the Serie A title in the so-called "Little World Cup" than to win the Champions League. The gold content of the championship is higher than that of the Champions League. But after all, Serie A is just a national league, while the UEFA Champions League is an event in which most European league champions compete. The importance of the latter is self-evident.

Even if you don't talk about influence, just talk about bonuses, the bonuses in the Champions League are much higher than those in Serie A.

In the Champions League, as long as you enter the group stage, you will have a broadcast fee share of 30000000 to 40000000 euros. If you can win the championship, the final bonus will reach 100 million euros.

In Serie A, the championship team's broadcast share for a season is less than 2000 million euros.

Therefore, in terms of economic benefits, it is much more useful to concentrate on winning the Champions League than winning the league championship.

Therefore, since Moratti took charge of Inter Milan, he has been working hard for the Champions League. He has only tried his best for ten years, and now he has achieved his wish at the level of Ronaldo and Ricardo.

The club is well prepared. On the evening of the 25th, the players took an open-top bus from the Pinettina training base to the Plaza de Meazza.

Along the way, fans wearing blue and black jerseys and waving blue and black scarves joined the parade from time to time.

Zanetti sat at the front, holding high the shining cup with big ears, while the rest of the players waved to the fans from time to time and interacted with the fans.

The fans sang "so1o1'inter", "pazzainter" and "We are the champions" to the music played on the bus, singing and dancing next to the slowly moving bus as if they were tireless.

Some fans also chanted "His Majesty the King" and "His Royal Highness Prince" to pay tribute to Ronaldo and Ricardo, the biggest heroes in the final.

When the bus came to the downtown square, some fans stood in front of the bus and shouted: "Your Majesty, please stay!"

This shout immediately resonated, and almost all the fans present shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, please stay!" The voice resounded through the sky.

Ricardo didn't go to the newspaper today, but what Ronaldo said in an interview yesterday was likely to be reported with embellishments, making fans think that he is about to leave-although he is indeed about to leave.

Under the bright light, there seemed to be crystal clear liquid in the corner of Ronaldo's eyes. He wiped his eyes and waved to the fans without saying "stay" or leaving. In this situation, he couldn't say anything about leaving.

When he came to this city, he was still young.

Now he is about to turn 29 and has played here for 8 full seasons. He left his best years and the most brilliant performances at the Meazza Stadium.

From the 97-98 season to the present, he has brought Inter Milan 4 Serie A titles, 2 Coppa Italia titles, and a Champions League title. It can be said that he has left no regrets.

Fans couldn't have hoped for more.

Regardless of the small number of 4 Serie A champions, it is far less shocking than Inter Milan's 5 consecutive championships and Juventus' 7 consecutive championships in the future.

But those consecutive championships were based on the overall decline of Serie A. At that time, most of the teams in Serie A lost their competitiveness.

From the 97-98 season to the present, Serie A is still in the last twilight of the setting sun. The championship is by no means Inter Milan and Juventus taking turns. AC Milan is still the top team in the world at this time, and Roma, Parma, Lazio, etc. are also certain. competitiveness.

Winning 4 Serie A championships in this era has a high gold content that cannot be compared with 5 consecutive championships and 7 consecutive championships in the future.

The bus slowly drove into the San Siro stadium.

This stadium, which has recorded the rise and fall of history, has once again become a sea of ​​joy.
