Young Guardiola tasted the bitterness of failure for the first time.

As a player that Barcelona focuses on training, he has always thought that he is God's favorite son.

Now, at most, he can be regarded as God's groom.

They are also 21 years old. Some people shot 4 shots and 1 pass in the Champions Cup final, and some people faked passes in the opponent's half. The gap between players is wider than that of ordinary people and nobles.

Such a game that attracts worldwide attention.

There are half of the Royal Family in Europe and almost all the famous players in football.

He and Barcelona lost without any ability to fight back, and they couldn't even score a face-saving goal.

Total defeat!

Whether it is personal skills or the team's tactical level, Barcelona is inferior to its opponents.

Far from it!

Such a sense of disparity made Guardiola extremely confused.

The strength of his opponent has been deeply imprinted in his heart.

No matter how hard you try, you can't defeat such a terrifying opponent. Is there any point in continuing to play football?

Fuck football dreams!

He lay on the grass and even had the idea of becoming a model.

An agent from a modeling agency had handed him a business card before.

Until Cruyff pulled him off the turf.

"Boss."

Guardiola curled her lips and cried directly.

Cruyff hugged him, patted his back and comforted him, "When we lost the World Cup final, I thought the earth was destroyed. Why is there Beckenbauer in the world? Am I not as good as the Germans as I scored 74 goals in the first season of the youth team? Later I found that losing is just the same. Don't care too much. Go out and sleep with a girl, and you will find that everything will get better."

"I have a girlfriend!"

Guardiola quickly emphasized that he and his girlfriend Cristina knew each other when they were in school.

"Okay, then Cristina."

Cruyff said with a smile.

He pulled his disciple and told the players to get up and not lie on the turf.

Make failure look even more embarrassing.

"Come on, boys, it's time to collect your awards."

Cruyff greeted.

Sampdoria players are already waiting at the entrance of the tunnel.

Guardiola looked at Dejan Lu, who was standing with his teammates, and couldn't tell that he was the man who dominated today's final. At this time, he especially wanted to ask: Why Manchester?

With the applause of the Sampdoria team, Catalonia people quickly walked onto the podium.

After receiving the medal, Guardiola looked back with some reluctance at the trophy that did not belong to him, and then quickly left with his teammates.

Next comes Sampdoria.

The atmosphere at Wembley instantly became frenzied.

Dejan Lu and Sampdoria showed unparalleled dominance over Wembley Stadium.

The camera swept across the stands, passing through the faces of the Royal Family members, and finally stopped on the faces of the fans.

Sampdoria fans held Number Seven jerseys high and chanted the name Dejan Lu.

It is because of supporters like this that football is the number one sport in the world.

In the stands, everyone supports the team equally regardless of their origins.

At least during this 90 minutes, the European the Royal Family will not be more noble than a car mechanic.

"Dejan!!!"

"Dejan!!!"

"Dejan!!!"

Dejan Lu was among the group, but Wembley Stadium kept shouting their names.

The British in the neutral stands were more fanatical than the Samp fans.

London, which has fallen into the night, is not only no longer as cold as before, but also makes people feel hot.

Italy's team allowed some young British fans to witness what football is for the first time.

Ferguson's children stared intently at the field.

The flame flashing in the eyes is called hope.

Seeing such a scene, it was difficult not to let Beckham and his teammates feel like a man.

One day, they will also stand on such a podium.

"You played well today, Roberto, you are so good!" Beckenbauer praised.

Roberto Mancini was really good when cooperating with Dejan Lu today. He was able to put the ball in place at the critical moment, which is very important.

Hearing Football Emperor's praise, Roberto Mancini's face burst into laughter.

Vialli pouted behind him. He felt that his role in front of the penalty area was greater than Roberto Mancini.

Finally it was Dejan Lu's turn. Pelé took the lead and hugged Dejan Lu and praised, "You finally played a great game and did not waste your talent."

Dejan Lu:...

Pelé continued, "Keep it up, make your opponents lose the game with your gorgeous offense, and give them the greatest psychological and physical pressure."

"If you want Dejan to have his leg broken, just say so."

Beckenbauer walked up and shook hands with Dejan Lu and said, "Don't care what others say, even if that person is Pelé or Beckenbauer, whether it is a long shot or passing 10 people and hitting the ball into the goal, it can only be counted as one goal."

"I'll take care of it myself."

Dejan Lu said with a smile.

Beckenbauer smiled and patted his arm.

So young!

21 years old, fourteen championships.

Even he can't compare.

Beckenbauer even feels that after ten years, he will be embarrassed to be called Football Emperor like Dejan Lu. Maybe he can be called the football king or something. Anyway, he is not French, so there is no need to be afraid of being the king.

Johansson took Dejan Lu's hand with a smile on his face, handed the medal to Dejan Lu and said, "When I was in Tokyo, I knew I would see you again at the end of the season. Some people are born to be winners."

"See you next season."

Dejan Lu nodded and said.

Johansson laughed along.

It may not be a good thing for the trophy to be monopolized, but at present, it seems that Dejan Lu is more popular among young people than ordinary players. Because he is a cartoonist, many children are even involved in football because of this.

The good he brings far outweighs the bad.

Dejan Lu applauded all the way to the podium and stood in front of the 1991-1992 European Champion Clubs' Cup Winner's arch with his teammates.

Look at the brothers around you.

Dejan Lu couldn't help but sigh.

When I came out to play football, I relied on having many brothers to get where I am today.

"Dejan, get ready to raise your glass."

Vialli urged.

Dejan Lu glanced at Roberto Mancini. Vialli hugged Roberto Mancini's neck tightly, not giving him a chance to show off.

"Coach, come along."

Dejan Lu said with a smile.

"Go ahead, boss, we are defending our title!"

"Yes, boss."

At the urging of the players, Boskov stood in front and grabbed the other side of the trophy together with Dejan Lu.

"Three,"

"Two,"

"One..."

As the fans counted down, Dejan Lu raised the cup a little slower, feeling a huge force.

He couldn't help but look at Boskov.

This was to take care of the coach and he raised the cup slowly, but he didn't expect him to be so powerful.

"WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS!!!!!"

Sampdoria players shouted excitedly.

The stands erupted in loud cheers again.

The game was exciting enough, so the fans' enthusiasm lasted for a long time.

"Sampdoria God's Team, maybe it's more appropriate to call them this."

"In the past three years, Sampdoria has won 14 championships, crushing Serie A and other giants in European football with its absolute strength, and starting the Sampdoria dynasty. In the Hollywood movie "Back to the Future," Professor always It's saying that a little change will affect the future, but I believe that even when Paolo·Mantovani intercepted Rivera in the restaurant, he himself had no idea what kind of player he would sign for Sampdoria."

"Columbus Airport has become Saint Dejan Airport. Even this cannot reflect the greatness of Dejan. He alone turned Sampdoria from a championship challenger to a defender of the throne. All the giants in Europe gave their all and could only watch Sampdoria take away all the championships."

"What's even more frightening is that this is just the beginning. The 21-year-old Dejan still has a lot of peak years. In ten or fifteen years, Sampdoria will definitely become Apennines and even the number one wealthy club in Europe!"

After being reminded by Rossi, many fans remembered this matter.

yes.

Now Sampdoria has quite a few champions.

Then I'm afraid it will take away other teams' current positions.

It's really scary.

Now Northern Three Powers has become the top four in the north.

Sampdoria was too strong when facing the Milan duo.

The only thing that made Rossoneri breathe a sigh of relief was that they won the second meeting this season. Although Dejan Lu did not play that time, Sampdoria also made a large-scale rotation.

But a win is a win. Isn't Barry's unbeaten a myth?

Compared to their rivals in the same city, the pressure on them is not that great.

Monica entered the field together with the players' families, put his arms around Dejan Lu's neck and kissed him hard, causing a burst of cheers to ring out from the stadium.

Virgil immediately came up and asked, "Dejan, where is that boy Portugal?"

"Cristiano? He didn't come."

Dejan Lu said.

Although he said that he would give money to the Little Curly family.

But Little Curly still refused.

Cristiano Ronaldo I have had strong self-esteem and sensitivity since I was a child. This personality cannot be changed.

It is precisely because of this kind of character that he has achieved his later achievements.

Perhaps letting others look up to him is the most important motivation.

Virgil lowered his head in disappointment. He recently learned a little Portugal slang and was about to show it off to Cristiano Ronaldo.

Dejan Lu rubbed his head vigorously, and Virgil quickly lowered his head and ducked away.

"Dejan Uncle, would you like to come over and take a photo?"

Paolo·Verchowod greeted.

Dejan Lu pulled Monica, walked over with a smile, and the two stood behind Paolo.

Compared to that brat Virgil, Paolo is obviously more obedient.

After the shooting, Monica said in Dejan Lu's ear, "Would you like to call Diane down to take a photo together?"

"Give the British some face."

Dejan Lu said angrily.

Taking the Princess and the Prince together to take pictures together makes them look like a family. The British the Royal Family's face may not look very good.

After all, it was also played in the UK.

Even if Charles isn't afraid of challenging Dejan the Football King to a duel, Dejan Lu doesn't want to see James Bond in the room at night.

"Fernando, come and take a photo."

Dejan Lu grabbed Lanna and Matracci, turned around and said hello.

He sat in front with Monica, and behind him stood two Marco and one Fernando.

When the reporter was about to take the photo, Roberto Mancini rushed directly in front of the camera with a sliding shovel, blocking Dejan Lu and Monica.

Click——

The photographer pressed the shutter decisively.

Roberto Mancini Uncle's expression is very vivid, he is going further and further on the road to the circus.

"Let's go out to celebrate later?"

Roberto Mancini asked.

"Of course, do you want to bring your family members with you?"

Dejan Lu asked.

"You go and play, Federica and I will go back first."

Monica said.

There are single young men on the team. If they go, those players will definitely not be able to let them go.

"Okay, I'm treating you today."

Dejan Lu said.

"Long live!!!"

Many people became excited instantly.

"The money I won from Roberto, 30,000 US dollars, was all spent!!!" Dejan Lu said again.

"Long live!!!!!!!!"

Everyone's voices suddenly became louder.

Except Roberto Mancini.

Even when the stars earned more than 200,000 a week, spending tens of thousands in nightclubs was considered quite a luxury.

If you spend 30,000 in one go, even the whole team can play quite well.

Hollywood In the movies made a few years ago, the champagne consumed by Colombians only cost a few hundred dollars a bottle.

"Dejan, we need a urine test."

Pezzotti came over and reminded.

"It's really boring, and I can't find any problems." Redondo complained.

Dejan Lu smiled and patted his arm and said, "It's okay, it's routine."

Without a urine test, how can Dejan the Football King improve himself?

Guardiola, who was in the bathroom, saw Dejan Lu, his face froze, but he forced a smile and nodded.

Dejan Lu also nodded.

When I was young, my bald melons were a bit comely. Who can argue with me?

But this guy is indeed not ugly.

While Dejan Lu was preparing samples, Guardiola walked around him for several seconds, and still couldn't help asking, "Why are you asking me if I want to go to Manchester?"

Dejan Lu smiled and shook his head and said, "Manchester is very good. With Manchester United and Manchester City, there may be good job opportunities. I think Manchester may be suitable for you."

"What do you think?"

Guardiola raised his voice in anger.

Who would arrange a job for someone else the first time they meet? They go from Catalonia to the rainy Manchester.

"Sorry, it's my fault."

Dejan Lu patted Guardiola on the shoulder and said, "I shouldn't have said nonsense. I didn't expect you didn't like Manchester."

Seeing Dejan Lu apologizing, he didn't know what to say.

Just stood there.

A few seconds after Dejan Lu left, Guardiola's eyes inadvertently saw some faint water stains on his shoulders.

"Damn it, I'm going to kill you!!!"

Mixed interview area.

"We are... Sampdoria Boys."

Roberto Mancini put his arm around Redondo's shoulders and shouted to the camera.

Redondo curled his lips in disgust.

I don't know if personality is contagious.

If one day he becomes like Roberto Mancini, I might as well kill him.

"Fernando, you will soon be playing in the same team as Diego Maradona and Van Basten. What do you think of them compared to Dejan?" the reporter asked directly.

Redondo said angrily, "It's a mistake for you to compare Dejan with those losers. It doesn't matter if the loser is called Diego Maradona or Van Basten. Football will only remember the winner. The winner is Dejan and his teammates, and his teammates include me."

"So what do you think of today's game?"

The reporter quickly changed the topic and asked.

I'm afraid Redondo won't answer.

Players who can refuse the call of the national team cannot be treated as ordinary people. Journalists have no more dignity than the national team coach.

"To be honest, I am very disappointed. Barcelona is not as strong as I thought. Cruyff is too famous. I thought this would be a difficult game..."

Redondo said.

"Are you saying that Barcelona is not worthy of its name?" the reporter quickly asked.

"I mean, Barcelona is not that strong. I really don't know how those teams lost to them." Redondo complained.

"Hey!" Roberto Mancini shouted dissatisfied.

He and Samp lost to Barca before.

Redondo glanced at him and turned to leave, but he was snickering in his heart.

He is talking about Roberto Mancini.

When Dejan Lu arrived at the press conference, Cruyff and Boskov were already answering reporters' questions.

him

"I don't think there's anything wrong with losing. That's the way the game is. Someone wins and someone loses. It's cruel, but this is real football."

Cruyff said.

After losing the World Cup final, his endurance has reached its limit.

Losing a Champions Cup is not that difficult for him to accept.

He can adjust his mood very well.

It's a pity, but it won't feel like the sky is falling like young people.

"Johan, why are you lagging behind at the tactical level?"

one reporter asked.

Simply don't give him an excuse to explain it by his personal ability gap.

Cruyff glanced at Boskov and said, "Even though the tactics are lagging behind, Sampdoria is a more advanced tactic. I'm sure this tactic incorporates Michels's ideas, so this is also a victory for Dutch football, which is a good thing for me."

Boskov immediately pulled the microphone and said, "Yes, I have studied the tactics of Michels and the Netherlands' Total Football. This game is actually a game of Dutch tactical concepts."

When Dejan Lu is not injured, he is willing to say something nice.

"Mr. Boskov, you got a red card for rushing into the court before. Did you want to attack the opponent's players?" the reporter asked.

"How is that possible?"

Boskov explained, "I am anxious to check Dejan's injury."

"But why are you raising your fist?"

The reporter was unwilling to give up this good opportunity and continued to ask.

Boskov said, "I was too angry at the time. This was a subconscious action. Some people like to look around when they are nervous. When I am nervous, I will squeeze my fists."

"Yes, I can prove it."

Dejan Lu said with a smile.

The reporters directly pointed the finger at Dejan Lu and asked, "Dejan, are there any fans here today who are special to you?"

British reporters were very excited when they heard this question.

Say that name, say that name!

Spencer!

"Every fan is very special to me." Dejan Lu said, "Football is nothing without fans. I am very grateful to all the fans who support us, whether he is Italy or Ethiopian."

There was a burst of laughter.

If someone else had said this, the Italy media would probably start complaining.

Who told this to be Dejan Lu.

"How long do you think Barcelona's first Champions Cup, no, European Champions League champion will have to wait?" a reporter asked, raising his hand.

Dejan Lu shook his head and said, "To be honest, I don't know. There may be someone who will save Barcelona. Mr. Cruyff has already done it. You can't deny his achievements just because he lost a championship. They just won the La Liga championship. But the coach is a coach after all, and Mr. Cruyff needs a player with the ability of his playing days."

Fleet Street reporters were quite disappointed.

Dejan Lu not only did not complain about Barca, but also said good things about Cruyff.

Really don't offend anyone.

"You didn't want to talk about the Stars before the game started. Can we talk about it now?"

one reporter asked.

"Of course, because that is the next game. I believe Mr. Zoff already has his own idea for the starting lineup." Dejan Lu said with a smile.

"So what do you envision the starting lineup will be like?"

one reporter asked.

"I'm afraid I can't say this, otherwise the fans' discussion will put pressure on Mr. Zoff." Dejan Lu said with a smile.

"Which player from Serie A All-Stars excites you more to play with, other than the player from Sampdoria?"

another reporter asked.

"It's hard to name a name. Diego, Marco, Roberto and others are all outstanding, but I'm sure it's not Paolo·Paolo Maldini. His offensive talent is very average."

Dejan Lu said.

Many reporters at the scene laughed.

Reporters who often interview Dejan Lu know that he and Paolo Maldini have a good relationship and often squeeze each other at press conferences.

Paolo Maldini's offensive talent is not bad among full-backs.

Just looking at the defender's talent, if he is considered average, then there won't be many people in the world who have defender talent.

"Have you come up with any new ideas recently? My son feels that the recent elves are not eye-catching."

one reporter asked.

Dejan Lu nodded and said, "Of course, you have to know that creation has lows and highs. There have been a lot of things recently, but during the holidays, I will focus more on comics. Ogawa will have new partners and adventures, and will face new challenges, friendship and betrayal, as well as Archer's redemption, which will all be revealed during this summer vacation."

Talking about comics, Dejan Lu is no longer sleepy.

There are ideas.

It's just that it's not drawn in detail.

Readers these days are very naive, so let's draw a picture first.

Compared to Blizzard, Dejan the Football King is so much better. At least Dejan the Football King won't keep bouncing tickets and making a mess. At most, it will occasionally find a reason to suspend publication.

After answering some more questions, Dejan Lu announced the end of the press conference as it was getting late.

I guess my teammates are all impatient.

Dejan Lu Just returned to the locker room and saw that everyone had changed their clothes.

Clearly interested in going out and celebrating.

Even those old men who stay at home occasionally want to go out and experience things.

Dejan Lu quickly sat down to change clothes, and two minutes later waved and shouted, "Let's go, let's see the nightclubs in London."

There was a roar in the locker room.

After winning, you should really celebrate.

"Let's go to Fabric!" Roberto Mancini shouted excitedly.

"Have you chosen a place already?"

Vialli asked.

"Just ask the waiter and you will know that Fabric is the best nightclub in London." Roberto Mancini said.

"Then let's go."

Dejan Lu said.

The group of people left in twos and threes.

Figure out a way on your own and then go over and meet up.

You can't take the team bus to a nightclub, that would be a bit outrageous.

Reporters can take pictures if they want to. The season has ended and the championship has just been won. Fans can't say anything if they let this go.

The booths and boxes are located on both sides, with a dance floor in the middle.

The lights on the dance floor were not as dark as expected, and they were different from the bars later.

The Samp first team arrived at the nightclub one after another, and it was a surprise to meet again.

These days, most big brothers may be unreliable, but it has been very successful without losing people in group activities in other places.

Before the drinks were served, some teammates had already run to the dance floor to play.

"Aren't you going? Dejan."

Seeing that Dejan Lu didn't move, Roberto Mancini asked.

"I'll sit down for a while."

Dejan Lu turned around and said, "Marco, go play, maybe you will meet a beautiful girl."

As for Redondo, no need to persuade.

He doesn't like girls playing in this kind of place at all.

"Why don't you go play?"

Redondo looked at Roberto Mancini and asked.

"I'm going to sit here and pick my targets. I don't have such a good view on the dance floor." Roberto Mancini said.

Several people rolled their eyes.

This guy has pretty good ideas.

"There are many celebrities coming to watch the game this time. Maybe I will meet a celebrity I like." Roberto Mancini continued.

"You yourself often appear on TV. There is no need to be so obsessed with celebrities. They are just ordinary people." Lu De said.

"You sound like you've dated a celebrity."

Roberto Mancini complained angrily.

"Yes, yes, celebrities' farts smell good."

Redondo said from the side.

Pagliuca and Verchowod, who had just arrived, came over and laughed immediately when they heard this.

A somewhat annoyed Roberto Mancini turned around and walked towards the dance floor.

"Who made our uncle Roberto Mancini unhappy again?" Pagliuca joked.

"Maybe it's because I didn't order a burger?"

Dejan Lu said.

Several people laughed even harder and punched the sofa with their fists.

This kind of joke really works within the team.

Recently, the probability of Marco·Lanna becoming a joke has become much smaller. According to the law of conservation of energy, Uncle Roberto Mancini will naturally become the successor.

Lanna has proven with actions that he is no longer that Lanna.

This is more fucking inspiring than the average story.

"Those little girls are looking at us." Pagliuca patted Mannini and said.

"It's impossible for people to look at you. Are you handsome?"

Mannini, who almost choked, said angrily.

"Maybe someone likes this one of mine." Pagliuca said.

He's not ugly.

"Don't think about it, they have been watching Dejan." Redondo, who was drinking champagne, said, "And they are still discussing Dejan. They will probably come up to chat with her soon."

While drinking, he noticed the looks of those girls.

Pagliuca waved his hands somewhat dejectedly.

Dejan Lu had not transferred before, but Roberto Mancini was the darling of female fans.

Now there are Dejan Lu and Redondo.

He can only be moved further down the list.

"Can we get to know each other?"

Sure enough, the two girls came over at the encouragement of their companions.

"Didn't you recognize us?"

Dejan Lu asked with a smile.

Catherine·Zeta-Jones.

He also saw the other party's TV series in the hotel, and he is probably a small actor now.

It's just that Dejan the Football King doesn't have time today. Even if Monica doesn't mind, he can't bring a stranger to see the Princess, so it's better to refuse directly.

As soon as these words came out, Jones's female companion's expression changed.

Catherine·Zeta-Jones said with the same expression, "We just want to get to know the big stars, it's nothing."

"Of course, you're more than welcome."

Dejan Lu said, "You can ask your friends to come together, and I'll buy you the wine today."

These words made the two girls look much better, and they immediately went back to discuss with their companions.

"I guess they thought they were invited specially."

Mannini curled his lips and said.

People in their 30s have seen this happen all too often.

"There's no need to tell the truth, right? Let the girls be happy."

Dejan Lu said.

Just know what's going on.

Anyway, there is a high probability that we will not see each other again, so why ruin their mood.

I didn't even dare to sit back when my teammates who were playing on the dance floor came back.

There are a few more girls in the booth!

"I am Roberto·Roberto Mancini, and I am best friends with Dejan."

Roberto Mancini sat down directly and squeezed over and said.

Vialli on the side rolled his eyes.

Damn, I should have killed this bastard back in the National Youth Team dormitory.

Only when it is needed will they admit that the two of them are good brothers, and they will always talk to Dejan Lu.

"Roberto is very powerful and can sing very well."

Dejan Lu said.

Many people at the table were snickering.

Roberto Mancini looks good, but singing is not as good as chanting.

"Really, really?"

When a girl showed interest, Dejan Lu took the opportunity to stand up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."

Redondo got up quickly.

"You'll pay the bill later."

Dejan Lu handed the credit card to Vialli and whispered.

If you don't leave now, you won't be able to leave later.

After leaving the nightclub, Redondo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I occasionally want to come to a place like this, but after staying for a while, I want to leave."

"That's not a problem."

Dejan Lu said with a smile, "Occasionally I want to be lively, but this kind of place is too noisy."

"Do you want to go back together?"

Redondo asked.

"I still have an appointment."

Dejan Lu said.

Redondo walked to the street to hail a taxi.

He knew very well the relationship between Dejan Lu and that the Princess.

Dejan Lu smiled and shook his head.

This good brother is really cool.

It's better to leave quickly, Monica will be impatient later.

When we arrived at the Princess's house, Dejan Lu was still not scared.

What kind of look is this? What is that.

Both of them combined don't have as much fabric as Dejan the Football King's jersey.

"What are you waiting for?"

Monica asked, his voice filled with an unbearable aura.

Dejan Lu knew that something happened just now that he didn't know about.

It wasn't until dawn that Dejan Lu fell asleep.

I don't know how long it took, but the BP machine kept ringing.

Dejan Lu didn't care. It wasn't until Monica pushed him hard a few times that Dejan Lu rubbed his eyes and looked at the wall clock.

"What's wrong? I only slept for two hours."

"Dear, Mr. Mantovani was in a car accident."

After hearing this, Dejan Lu sat up directly, no longer feeling sleepy.
