Golden Greenery

Chapter 286: Opening the champagne again during midfield

During the halftime break, the atmosphere in the AC Milan locker room was very relaxed. Everyone was talking and laughing about the gains and losses in the first half. The common point was that they were all confident in victory.

The Champions League matches adopt an 11+7 registration system for each game. Only players on this list can sit on the bench. But today all Milan first-team players came to the Athens Olympic Stadium, including Ronaldo, who has lost the qualification to represent Milan in this season's Champions League, and Costacurta, who has retired. At this time, everyone gathered in the locker room.

In addition to the Big Ear Cup, the Champions League champion will naturally be awarded a gold medal, and the runner-up will also receive a consolation silver medal. No matter how the team registers for the season, UEFA will award 32 gold or silver medals. These medals will be distributed internally by the winning clubs, including players, coaching staff and other departments. Rich clubs also have some mature distribution plans, and they will not favor one or another or act randomly.

Milan players will have 26 medals. This is the norm. This number is also the number of regular first-team players. The remaining players named first-team but actually second-team players are not among them, and they are not eligible to share medals and honors. So today all the prominent figures in the first team are here, and they will attend the award ceremony soon.

But counting heads, there are 27 players in the locker room, and the extra one is named Ronaldo.

Ronaldo participated in this season's Champions League group stage with Real Madrid in the first half of the season. According to the rules, he lost the qualification to sign up to represent AC Milan after his transfer. If he cannot register, he will naturally not be included in the traditional list of 26 people. As a result, even if Milan wins the championship, it has nothing to do with him, and he will not have a share in the gold medal.

In other words, if Real Madrid can finally win the championship, Ronaldo, who is no longer from Real Madrid, will receive a championship gold medal.

If it were anyone else, AC Milan would not be so careless, but Ronaldo is really unusual. First of all, no one dares to neglect such a king-level figure. Secondly, Ronaldo performed really well in Serie A in the second half of the schedule, and the old prince who is in good shape is also worthy of the club's win over. Another very important point is that Ronaldo, who has been in the world for more than ten years, has won all the honors in the world, but lacks a Champions League championship.

This is very feng shui, and it also means luck. What can I do if I run around you? It is more difficult to win the Champions League than to win the World Cup. Ronaldo, who has traveled to many wealthy clubs, is also helpless about this.

Among the superstars of the 1976 generation,

Ronaldo is not the only one who has not won the Champions League. Needless to say, Totti has stuck to Roma his whole life. Ballack is really miserable, and Vieira is a bit of a back-up. Those who are older than them will not be listed one by one. After all, only the league champions can compete for the Champions League at that time, but Buffon and Ibrahimovic who are younger than them must not have realized it at this time.

These people shed tears behind others’ backs and don’t know who to talk to for explanation!

The top management of AC Milan felt compassion and decided to award Ronaldo a gold medal if he won the championship to comfort his vicissitudes of life. The share of this extra gold medal comes from the coaching staff. Let Ancelotti coordinate the matter in one sentence.

Ronaldo actually didn't want this sympathy, which made him feel like he was begging and being pitied, but he couldn't deny the elegance and kindness of the club's top management, so he pretended to be happy and agreed.

In fact, even if AC Milan wins the championship and Ronaldo has this gold medal, the honor of this championship will not be officially recorded in his files. He still does not have the Champions League, he is just deceiving himself.

Brazilian forward Delle has only been selected for one national team warm-up match, which was the result of his agent spending money. But this guy happened to play in Porto for a year in the 2003-04 season, so he followed Mourinho to win a Champions League championship. Ronaldo looked at Del Rey the same way Yao Ming looked at Battle of the Spurs.

Ricardo Oliveira is different. Although he joined last year with a worth of over 18 million, he has been reduced to pure soy sauce, but he is still a genuine player registered for the Champions League. Once he wins the championship, this solid honor will be lost. Into the pocket. After all, it was the first time in his life. Seeing that most of the 2:o leading champions were already in the bag, Oliveira, who was in high spirits at the happy event, couldn't help but feel a little excited.

The event organizer of the Athens Olympic Stadium was very considerate and prepared two huge bottles of Salute champagne in the two locker rooms, which was impartial. This approach makes it easier for whoever wins the championship to hold it up and enjoy it in celebration. It is not very convenient for the two clubs to prepare this thing themselves, because 'good things will not work if you say them'. If you prepare in advance, you will not get into trouble and will also hurt your character. However, it is quite fun for the organizers to do this.

While joking, Oliveira suddenly held a large bottle of champagne in her arms: "Let's open the champagne..."

One sentence instantly silenced the entire locker room. The expressions of Maldini and some old gangsters changed. The black Japanese melon looked as ugly as any.

This sentence violated AC Milan's taboo, and also stepped on the tail of Maldini.

At halftime in Istanbul two years ago, AC Milan led Liverpool 3:0, and it was Shevchenko who said, 'Let's pop the champagne! ’ The media made a big fuss after the game. Although Milan was reversed in the second half not because of this sentence, and the media's speculation was exaggerated, but it is a fact that Sheva and Maldini had an unpleasant dispute because of this sentence.

This sentence has become the iconic event of that tragic night in Milan, and it is also a scar that no one wants to recall again.

Not to mention the old Milan who have personally experienced it, even latecomers like Zhuo Yang know this section, the unbearable lightness of life. Everyone is deliberately avoiding this topic, but unexpectedly, the reckless Oliveira's La' uncovered.

The locker room fell into a cold and awkward silence. Everyone knew that Oliveira said it unintentionally, but this sign was really not good. Facing the same opponent two years later, under almost the same situation at the same moment, the same teammate No. 7 said it. If you say the same thing, is this damn history going to repeat itself?

Of course Oliveira had also heard about this, so he was suddenly alert before he finished speaking, but it was obviously too late. At this moment, he regretted so much that he just wanted to slap his poor mouth to bits, and his darkened face turned red from suppressing it and then turned pale with fear.

Ten seconds passed in the locker room. Everyone knew that they had to break the silence to resolve the embarrassment, but they didn't know how to do it. Forced laughter or turned a deaf ear? Change the topic or face the scar? No one can find a suitable solution in a short time.

But the longer the silence lasts, the more serious the awkwardness will be, which will create a psychological shadow in everyone's hearts, and fatalists will fear the reincarnation of bad luck. Someone needs to break this dangerous silence in the locker room.

Zhuoyang suddenly stood up, pointed at Oliveira's nose and yelled: "Lao Li, I think you are talking nonsense!"...
