The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 672
672 Sadness and Joy Interweave
“Dear spectators and fans, the 2006-2007 FA Cup is over. Leeds United beat Chelsea 3-1 to win this season’s FA Cup. Let’s congratulate Leeds United!” Mark Lawrenson roared excitedly.
The Leeds United fans cheered excitedly, shouted crazily and roared loudly, pushing the mood to a climax.
“Leeds United have not had an easy season, as can be seen from the last game of the league against Manchester United. And at the beginning of the league, Leeds United were in a terrible condition. It was a tough time for them, but they managed to withstand the pressure and gritted their teeth as they walked over. In the end, they achieved great success. Long live Leeds United, long live Madman Loria! Eddie Gray was very excited, very excited, and very touched at the same time!
Leeds United have had a very, very difficult season, as Eddie Gray knows as an outsider. In that case, the pressure and difficulties faced by Leeds United were definitely not something outsiders like them could imagine. Zhong Cheng had contributed a lot to Leeds United’s success this season.
It was Zhong Cheng who brought Leeds United to their current successful position. Long live Zhong Cheng!
Eddie Gray gave Zhong Cheng a thumbs up. Now, he had completely accepted Zhong Cheng and admired him. Zhong Cheng was the redeemer of Leeds United. Only he could save Leeds United!
Long live Leeds United! Madman Loria, I was!
“Right now, there is the 2006-2007 FA Cup awards ceremony on the pitch. The first team to step out is Chelsea, and FA officials are going to give them the runner-up award!” Mark Lawrenson said immediately.
Only a handful of Chelsea players are left clapping weakly and giving their applause to their mother team.
Of course, the Chelsea fans at the scene were in a very bad mood and felt very painful in their hearts. However, there was no other way. Who would call them losers?
The faces of the Chelsea players were also very ugly, not wanting to accept the prize at all.
Moreover, the image of the Chelsea players is also very miserable. Because they didn’t take a bath or change clothes at all, it was obvious how low the Chelsea people’s mood was when they were in the dressing room. They were all stunned like wooden people for more than ten to twenty minutes, weren’t they?
The Chelsea players quickly climbed onto the stage and could tell that they were very anxious, not to receive the prize, but to leave.
This is the sadness of the Chelsea men. They don’t want to stay here any longer. They don’t want to see their arch-rivals on the podium of the championship. It’s a disgrace.
None of the Chelsea players spoke to the honoured guests. They went on stage in a daze and left as soon as they got the silver medal. There were even several Chelsea players who were unwilling to let the honoured guests hang the silver medal around their necks. They reached out to receive it and then pulled it off the stage.
The Chelsea fans at the scene were in great pain, many of them tears of humiliation.
Chelsea coach José Mourinho was the last to step onto the podium, and his expression was similarly ugly.
When José Mourinho came on stage, Zhong Cheng brought the Leeds United players out of the players’ passageway. The Leeds United players were all dressed in white T-shirts and looked imposing, causing the Leeds United fans to scream.
“Wow, the players from Leeds United are out. They are really well prepared. It can be seen that Roja is very confident in this game before the game. They really won today. Beautiful! Long live Roja!” Eddie Gray was very excited.
José Mourinho directly took the medal and walked down the podium. He didn’t care what the honored guests were saying at all. Seemingly impolite, the corner of the honored guest’s mouth twitched slightly. This damn José Mourinho really had a unique personality.
At this moment, the Leeds United fans were very excited. They could not wait any longer. They were jumping wildly and cheering with passion.
“Alright, now that the runner-up has received the award, let’s begin today’s big show. Next up is the 2006-2007 FA Cup Championship. Now that the Leeds United has appeared on the pitch, let’s congratulate Leeds United first!” Eddie Gray said excitedly.
The fans on the scene and in front of the TV cheered excitedly. Leeds United were the champions.
“Now we invite Leeds United, the 2006-2007 season FA Cup winner, to receive the award!” Eddie Gray roared excitedly.
The Leeds United fans at the scene and in front of the TV suddenly became excited, their faces flushed red, and many people even shed tears. At this moment, they were singing the song neatly, the familiar team song:
“Let’s go with Leeds
Let’s go help him
Stand up and sing for Leeds United
They are the greatest people in the world
Every day we say
We love you.-Leeds! Leeds! Leeds!
We’re everywhere
We love you.-Leeds! Leeds! Leeds!
Dare to move forward
We’ll see you win
We are proud of you
We shouted loudly
We love you.-Leeds! Leeds! Leeds! ”
The Leeds United players slowly climbed onto the podium. When every Leeds United player went on stage to receive their awards, the announcers on the stage would excitedly shout out the name of the player. This was a roll call for the championship!
The first person to step up was Albertini!
To have such a farewell ceremony, Albertini felt that he was extremely lucky. He felt that he was a lucky man. To have such a perfect career was truly too happy.
Of course, Albertini still had to thank Zhong Cheng.
If Zhong Cheng hadn’t gone to Milan to persuade him, he wouldn’t have come to Leeds United, and he wouldn’t have had such a glorious final career. He really, really thanked Zhong Cheng for his trust in him.
Countless Leeds United fans wept when they saw Albertini accept the award.
The heroes of the generation were about to leave them like this, and their hearts were filled with unwillingness and pain. However, life is like this, there is a reunion, there is parting. The Leeds United players were reluctant to part, but they still waved goodbye to Albertini.
“Albertini, a great player. Today is also the end of a great era. Fallen Leaf Grandmaster Albertini officially bid farewell to professional football. The next generation of Heavenly Kings is gradually leaving me. In the future, we will only see his elegant figure again from the videotape. Albertini, go! We will always remember you!” Eddie Gray said affectionately.
Albertini himself cried to tears. This scene touched countless people.
After that, Pique, Compani, Aver and the others went on stage to receive the prizes one by one. The Leeds United players were all very excited and their faces were filled with joy.
Then came Zhong Zheng and the others. They all received the prizes one by one.
Although Zhong Zheng has been captain of Leeds United most of the season, he is not today. Because old captain Gary Kelly, who is captain, started and played all over the pitch. Therefore, Zhong Zheng was the third from the bottom to go on stage.
Behind Zhong Zheng are Zhong Cheng and Gary Kelly. Gary Kelly is at the end of the line as captain of the team. He will lift the 2006-2007 FA Cup on behalf of Leeds United. This should be his last time raising the trophy!
After Zhong Zheng walked over, Zhong Cheng walked over.
The award-winning FA official gave Chung a hug and said, “Loria, you’re really a King’s Coach. We’ve been seeing you on this stage lately. But that’s good. We’ll always support you. What do you think? Do you want to come to England?”
Zhong Cheng was slightly stunned. He did not expect that an FA official would extend an invitation to him on this occasion to coach the English national team!
Zhong Chengzhen was in a muddle. He really didn’t expect that.
“I’m sorry, I’m doing well at Leeds and this is my team. We still have a long way to go and I don’t think I can accept England right now,” said Zhong Cheng.
Officials at the Football Association have long anticipated this and although they are somewhat disappointed, they are still able to accept it. He gave Zhong Cheng a hug and said, “Good luck, then. Congratulations on being the champion!”
After embracing the officials, Zhong Cheng also left and arrived at the center of the podium.
The last one to come up was the big show. Everyone stared at the stage.
There was both excitement and sadness because they knew that their old captain, Gary Kelly, who was only playing for Leeds United, was retiring after the game and was leaving professional football. They were very sad.
On the stands, there were a lot of fans crying. They were singing emotionally, tears flowing down their cheeks …
Gary Kelly’s eyes were also red. He was also very reluctant, but there was nothing he could do. At this age, he had no choice but to make such a decision. It was always time to leave, sooner or later, and now was the time for him, Gary Kelly, to leave.
Gary Kelly took the FA Cup trophy solemnly from an FA official and the Leeds United fans were so excited that their emotions were almost at their peak.
At this moment, Gary Kelly arrived at the center of the podium with the championship trophy in hand. All the Leeds United players surrounded him, ready to celebrate wildly.
“The 2006-2007 FA Cup winner was born. They are Leeds United!” Eddie Gray roared excitedly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Gary Kelly excitedly raised the championship trophy in his hand high above his head. Countless colorful fragments immediately poured down from the sky. At the same time, endless fireworks rose up around the podium, causing the atmosphere to become incomparably dreamy!
At the same time, the familiar song came from the speakers and the Leeds United fans sang excitedly,
“I have fulfilled my responsibilities over and over again
I can do what I say every time, and I have not committed any crimes or mistakes
We have to keep moving forward
My friends, we will fight until the end
We are champions
We are champions
There is no reason for failure
Because we’re champions. ”
