The Top Five Leagues All Come to a Close! Tang Long's Stats Turn Heads!
The riots in Napoli shocked the entire Italy political world!
It has been a long time since Italy has seen such large-scale urban riots.
The local municipal authorities deployed a total of 5,000 police officers and arrested more than 1,000 people.
However, due to the large number of people, it's impossible to catch them all.
The detention centers in Napoli are so overcrowded that they have to release people on the spot.
Italy news channels reported on this.
"The impact and destructive power of this riot have reached historic levels!"
"Not only were thousands of shops vandalized, but over 800 cars were also burned!"
"The towering flames illuminated the southern city as if it were daytime, even though it was shrouded in night."
"According to incomplete statistics, the direct economic losses caused by the riots triggered by football amount to as much as 2 billion euros!"
"The mayor of Napoli also resigned in a televised conference at 8:30 pm on the second day!"
"According to on-site reporters, many Napoli citizens were simultaneously looting, vandalizing, and engaging in 'free shopping' while chanting that Napoli should belong to their own Tang Long!"
"Tang, the China player who led Inter Milan into the UEFA Champions League qualifiers, his name has been mentioned tens of thousands of times in this southern Italy city."
"It's hard to fathom the attitude of this southern city towards this star player from Milan in the north."
"As an opponent, Don makes Napoli grit their teeth in hatred; but as a teammate, he will definitely become another football king for Napoli after Maradona!"
"But it's clear that as a key player for Inter Milan, Tang is unlikely to come to Napoli."
"Rumors about his transfer have been rampant, becoming the most talked-about news in all of Europe."
"It seems that more than half of the transfer market's attention this summer will be focused on this 18-year-old China boy."
The 2014-15 season of the Top Five Leagues has concluded!
In the Premier League, the Blues won Chelsea title this season.
Chelsea secured the Premier League title this season with 87 points, outperforming Manchester City, Arsenal, and Manchester United.
However, their top scorer Diego Costa only ranks third in the Premier League top scorers list this season with 20 goals.
Ahead of him is Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Kane with 21 goals, and Manchester City star Agüero, who has maintained his consistent performance, winning the Premier League Golden Boot this season with 26 league goals.
This outcome also surprised even the so-called sports prediction experts!
At the beginning of the season, everyone predicted that Manchester City would successfully defend their title, just like in the 2013-14 season!
However, Mourinho's iron-willed army shattered Blue Moon's expectations.
Since the Special One's return to the Premier League, he has once again proven his ability to the world – I am the most special one!
In La Liga, Barca and Real Madrid are considered the two dominant teams.
With 94 points and 92 points respectively, they are ranked in the top two of the standings.
Atletico Atlético Madrid, who miraculously won the La Liga title last season, have seen a decline in form this season.
However, they still managed to qualify for next season's UEFA Champions League as the third-placed team in the league.
Valencia, is in fourth place.
In recent years, La Liga's top scorers list has consistently been one of the most eye-catching among the Top Five Leagues.
Whoever wins the La Liga top scorer award between Lionel Messi and Ronaldo will essentially determine who gets the UEFA Champions League Golden Boot.
Cristiano Ronaldo has been in better form this season, with 48 league goals, five more than his old rival Lionel Messi. The Portuguese has also won his fourth European Golden Shoe!
Although Ronaldo has scored more goals, he lags behind Lionel Messi in the battle for honors.
This season, Barca not only won the La Liga title, but they also have an UEFA Champions League final against Juventus yet to be played.
Given that Barcelona has already won the Copa del Rey, if they can win the UEFA Champions League, they will once again become the treble winners in Europe!
In the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich is as solid as ever!
They've been leading the pack since the start of the season, never relinquishing their league-leading position to anyone else.
Borussia Dortmund, who were title rivals just a few years ago, have seen their performance plummet this season!
Borussia Dortmund finished 7th in the Bundesliga standings with only 46 points, thus being excluded from next season's UEFA Champions League qualification.
Wolfsburg, Borussia Monchengladbach, and Bayer Leverkusen ranked 2nd through 4th.
This season's Bundesliga Golden Boot winner has scored the fewest goals in history.
The top-ranked player, Meier, plays for Eintracht Frankfurt and scored only 19 league goals to win the title of "Little Cannon".
Second place goes to Robben with 17 goals, followed by Lewandowski, Aubameyang, and Dost with 17, 16, and 16 goals respectively.
With only 18 teams, the Bundesliga season consists of only 34 matches, four fewer than the other four of the Top Five Leagues.
I wonder when the next Bundesliga European Golden Shoe will emerge?
In Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain has once again won the league title this season!
They have won three consecutive league titles, and after the injection of capital from conglomerates, Paris's dominance in Ligue 1 is unshakeable.
Lyon, the former seven-time champions of Ligue 1 1, could only settle for second place.
Monaco is in third place, and Marseille is in fourth.
In the Ligue 1 top scorer standings, Lyon striker Lacazette led the pack with 27 goals, winning the Golden Boot.
Rumors are circulating that Premier League powerhouse Arsenal have their eyes on this young striker, whose value is estimated at at least Pound Sterling 50 million.
It's worth noting that Ibrahimovic, the 34-year-old Sweden striker, has still managed to score 19 league goals, ranking third in the top scorers list!
The Sweden striker, who calls himself God, consistently maintains a high number of goals every season as long as he is injury-free.
However, Ibrahimovic, who is already in the twilight of his career, is still desperately pursuing an UEFA Champions League title.
From Juventus to Inter Milan, then to Barcelona, back to AC Milan, and finally to Paris Saint-Germain.
For at least two of those years, Ibrahimovic had just transferred when his former club won the UEFA Champions League!
The unstoppable Ibrahimovic and Bruyne, who were unstoppable in the league, have repeatedly stumbled in the UEFA Champions League.
It's uncertain how many more years Ibrahimovic can play, and whether he'll be able to fulfill his UEFA Champions League dream before retiring.
In Serie A, Juventus, the dominant force, secured their fourth consecutive Serie A title with 87 league points!
Throughout Italy, no team, whether it's Inter Milan, AC Milan, Roma, Lazio, or Fiorentina, has been able to challenge Juventus' domestic dominance.
Like Bayern Munich, they demonstrated complete control from the very first round of the league, preventing the top spot from changing hands.
However, the only downside was that they lost to their old rivals Inter Milan in the Coppa Italia final.
This shattered Bianconeri' dream of winning the treble this season!
Roma are ranked second, maintaining their consistent performance in recent seasons.
They have no hope of winning the league title, but securing UEFA Champions League spot is still something they're good at.
Inter Milan is ranked third in Serie A!
This is definitely a dark horse!
After 10 rounds of the league, former Serie A treble winners Inter Milan are only ranked ninth, which is a huge surprise to fans and makes their rivals very happy.
Who could have predicted that Inter Milan would surge northwards in the following 28 rounds, climbing to third place and securing a last-minute UEFA Champions League spot for next season?
Napoli is ranked fourth.
In other leagues, they might have already qualified for the UEFA Champions League, but in Serie A, they can only play in the UEFA Europa League next season.
Looking at the Serie A scorers list, Icardi has an astonishing 40 goals!
With a commanding lead over second-placed Luca Toni and third-placed Tevez, he won his first Serie A Golden Boot.
Icardi is also one of only three players in the Top Five Leagues this season to have scored over 40 league goals, the other two being Lionel Messi and Ronaldo.
At just 22 years old, Icardi has demonstrated his immense talent in scoring goals!
However, due to the training strike controversy, he is having a tough time now and has been excluded from the team's roster for several consecutive rounds.
It is understood that he will not play for Inter Milan in the upcoming UEFA Europa League final.
His professional career at Inter Milan is over.
However, the Argentine striker will certainly not lack suitors, as many top clubs are eyeing him.
Turning to the assist charts for this season's Serie A, one name stands out!
Tang Long, an 18-year-old player from China, has won the Serie A assist title this season with 27 assists!
It's worth noting that the five players behind him – Hamsik, Pjanic, Vazquez, Dybala, and Berardi – have only contributed a combined 50 league assists.
In addition, Tang Long scored 7 league goals!
Including league matches, the UEFA Europa League, and the Coppa Italia, Tang Long has made 31 appearances so far, scoring 7 goals and providing 27 assists.
He contributes to more than one goal per game!
Tang Long's emergence this season has been nothing short of phenomenal, shocking Europe!
This has fueled anticipation for the upcoming UEFA Europa League final.
Inter Milan's opponent is Sevilla.
As is well known, the UEFA Europa League is also called the Sevilla Cup.
Sevilla is only a second-tier team in La Liga. Although they qualify for the UEFA Champions League almost every season, they have repeatedly slipped into the UEFA Europa League as the third-placed team in their group, and then went on to win the UEFA Europa League title.
This is arguably a very unusual team.
They have unparalleled experience in the UEFA Europa League.
Can Inter Milan overcome Sevilla and end the 2014-15 season with an UEFA Europa League title?
May 28, 2015.
The Olympiastadion Berlin, Germany.
We're all itching to get started, let's wait and see!
