Chapter 213: Future peak battle

On the evening of May 11, at the Rotterdam Airport, six kilometers northwest of Rotterdam, a group of people wearing blue jerseys looked forward to the exit hall of the airport. They looked at the exit with an eager look.
The plane sailing from London arrived at Rotterdam Airport, and soon, someone at the exit headed out.
In a black suit with a slim fit, Aldridge put the bag in his left hand and the suitcase in his right hand. He walked steadily with his head straight and led the team out.
Behind him, the coaches of the coaching staff and the players of the Millwall team all wore suits uniformly and uniformly, and each heroic and handsome was extraordinary.
The fans who had been waiting for a long time suddenly burst into cheers!
"Look! Millwall is here!"
"Aldrich Hall! Really him! The most famous young handsome in Europe! He is more handsome than he looks on TV!"
"Larsen! Nedved! Shevchenko! Schneider! Really they!"
"Larson! Larson!"
...
The scene was chaotic. Hundreds of fans in the airport surrounded the Millwall team, some asked for signatures, some sent flowers, and avid female fans bravely embraced their favorite players and sent sweet kisses.
Aldridge led his team to fight in the homeland of England, and has never experienced such a scene, because local fans are no stranger to Millwall, whether it is TV exposure or going to the field to watch the ball, they can see them.
Even when leading their teams to Europe, they did not meet many fanatic fans in Paris because they were not popular teams.
But today is quite different.
Mill Wall Howe won the Premier League title, broke into the European Cup Winners' Cup finals, and eliminated Paris Saint-Germain in two rounds, making their reputation in Europe grow rapidly.
When outside fans began to be curious about this team, in the process of their in-depth understanding, they quickly became fans of Millwall, or a certain player.
Aldridge alone has already become as popular as entertainment stars.
"He is young and handsome, tactical and resourceful, and calm on the sidelines, sometimes showing the wildness of young people, attracting everyone's attention, he is the pride of England."
This is the Times' evaluation of the young marshals who have rushed to the Red Premier League in the past three years.
And Aldridge’s high-gloss lens is no less than any star, especially in the last two minutes of the Premier League finale, he raised his right hand on the sidelines and firmly put the goalkeeper and central defender into the attack, and turned to the opponent Lao Lei. Uninvited invitations to go out of the door, after the team lore opponents, knocked the dead enemy into the relegation abyss, showed a charming evil smile and left the scene early. The whole process was repeatedly broadcast by major British TV stations, which made Aldridge's popularity directly burst into the table. Become one of the new generation of idols!
However, Aldridge did not have the consciousness of a star. He only felt the enthusiasm of the fans here after he came to Rotterdam. Among the team members, there were not many security guards. Therefore, with the help of airport security to maintain order, Milwax The entire team successfully walked out of the airport.
Aldrich took the lead on the bus, and then turned back to the players who were "stunned" and calmed down, "If you are willing, you can sign a photo with these fans. We can wait for half an hour before leaving."
There were more fans outside the airport, surrounded by the front of the bus under the maintenance of security personnel.
Millwall players were used to local fans outside the training ground, but they didn’t expect to come abroad. They were so popular. The fans naturally waited for a long time, which made the players very moved. So outside the bus, they gave some Fans took a group photo and signed, which made many fans ecstatic.
Staying in a five-star hotel in Rotterdam in the evening, Aldridge did not impose martial law on the players. The players can go out for a stroll, but they must return to the hotel to rest before 11 pm.
Before the start of the game, they had three days, 12, 13, and 14. On these three days, Millwall's plan was to rest on the first day, enter training on the second day, step on the field on the third day, and then play on the 15th.
Players have different preferences, some don’t like stepping on the field, they think it’s a waste of time, some don’t want to take too much rest, and want to use exercise to maintain their physical condition, which varies from person to person, but Aldridge set about For the whole team, you can’t make plans based on players’ likes and dislikes. Whether you like it or not, it’s a collective, individual will must obey the collective will, and every decision of the head coach is not tossing, there must be Think deeply about the big picture.
Rotterdam, as a well-known port city in Europe, has its own unique scenery. On the next day, the Millwall team, the players traveled together to enjoy the wonderful scenery of foreign countries.
Also on this day, the Barcelona team arrived in Rotterdam, causing more sensation than when Millwall arrived!
All major media working groups in Europe have also arrived here, tracking the situation of the two teams from before the game.
This game is called by the media as "the pinnacle of the future!"
The future here has two meanings. One is that the game will be played in the future. The other means that Millwall and Barcelona are young teams. There are many supernovas in these two teams. They are the fresh blood of European football. In the future, it will definitely be an enduring figure in the top game.
The good news The Sun reported the title "Civil War in England!"
The coaches of the two teams, one side is young coach Aldridge, and the other side is Sir Bobby Robson, who is over 60 years old.
Both are English, which makes the British media extremely proud.
There are many famous coaches in the history of England, such as the long-standing Calvo, Nicholson, Sir Ramsey, Crawford, Paisley, Levi, etc. in the past two or three decades, but in the contemporary era, they are still active in the public. The former England coaches are not many, Sir Bobby Robson must be considered one, but he created the best national team World Cup record in England after winning the World Cup from homeland, and because he traveled around Europe to coach, it was still one. An anti-cancer fighter, so he was admired in England.
Even though Aldrich was in the limelight at this time, his popularity in England was very high, but objectively speaking, he was no match for Robson.
In terms of popularity, Aldridge may be better than others, but in terms of achievements, Aldridge can only count on his own.
This showdown between the young and the handsome is being vigorously rendered. Is it the heritage of the times or the newcomer? Is it the Aldridge's new calf that is not afraid of tigers, or is Robson's more spicy? This matchup has too many things to watch.
The two best-performing strikers in the top five European leagues, Larsen and Ronaldo.
There is no lack of merits in the comprehensive contests of those who can conquer good wars in their respective formations.
When Aldridge attended the UEFA final press conference one day before the game, there were more than a hundred journalists from different countries around the world.
The appeal of this final is faintly comparable to that of the Champions League final Dortmund and Juventus!
Under the control of the press officer, Aldridge paid tribute to Sir Bobby Robson and waited for the reporters to ask questions.
At first, some mainstream European media were asking about the competition.
For example, team status, player list, game tactics, etc.
But at the end of the press conference, it turned into a slobber battle between Audridge and reporters.
The two major media outlets in Barcelona, ​​"World Sports" and "Daily Sports", fired on Aldridge with hostility.
"Half a year ago, you said that Ronaldo was not worthy of the Golden Ball Awards second, nor Mr. World Football, but he has scored more than 40 goals this season. Do you still insist on your words?"
The scene suddenly became quiet, and all reporters knew one thing in their minds: the good show began.
Aldridge said quietly after a moment of silence: "Yes, I still insist."
"Don't you think this is a ridiculous stubbornness that you are deceiving yourself?"
"No, I don’t think, first of all, let me reiterate that neither the Golden Globes nor Mr. World Football is a future star. Please tell me what honor Ronaldo won in the 95-96 season? He alone I don’t think he’s better than my players in Barcelona’s half-season performance. Of course, if he can get some heavyweight honors this season, such as the league championship, then he will be a popular candidate for the Golden Globe in this year’s selection. I will agree, but, before there is no team honor, please don’t overestimate the individual and ignore the team."
"You say that Ronaldo is not as good as your player. Please tell me who is better than Ronaldo!"
Aldridge chuckled and said, "This is not interesting, but you want to know, then I said, although Larson and Ronaldo are two different types of forwards, but just comparing the results, Larson last season compared Ronaldo has won more championship trophies, scored more goals, and has more assists. Larson has more goals and assists than Ronaldo this season, and we have won the league championship. Larson helped the team create There are a lot of great records, including 18 consecutive league winning streak, one at home, a winning streak at home, consecutive consecutive goals, and so on. I don’t want to go any further."
"What a joke! Are the Premier League and La Liga comparable? If Millwall comes to La Liga, you may not even get into the top three! How much gold does the record created in that kind of league? Ronaldo scored There are a lot of great goals. One hundred years later, people will mention that this great shooter will relish his goals!"
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhzymuck Hi, Ha Ha ha ha, it's really interesting, well, you let Barcelona come to the Premier League to kick and watch, this is a stupid discussion. I have never denied Ronaldo's goal to be ornamental, nor did he deny him. Talents and abilities, but the comprehensive value of a player reflects not only whether the job can be done well, but also to improve the team and help the team to obtain honor. If only the player's individual ability is compared, then what is the significance of the team? Where is the player’s collective sense of honor? You are here to chase Ronaldo, but have you thought about the value of the people who help him next to him? Figo, Giovanni, Drapena, Enrique, Guardiola Wait, what is their value? Is it for Ronaldo? If so, then, Barcelona’s football values ​​disappointed me, but in fact, no! It’s because you misunderstood all this, and Ronaldo is so good because Barcelona has a strong team, and they serve the team together for victory, not for individuals! When you emphasize Ronaldo’s contribution, please give some respect to other Barcelona players. Without them, Ronaldo is nothing, just like Larson Similarly, he has no teammates like Nedved, Trezeguet, Makelele, Southgate, etc., and he will not achieve such achievements now."
"We are just talking about forwards, not the whole team!"
"Stupidly hopeless! You think Ronaldo of Barcelona went to Vallecano, Atletico Gijon, Celta and other La Liga middle and lower teams, can he still have the same performance? He can still score then Do you have a great goal in your mouth? Similarly, if Larson is not in Millwall, but in other middle and lower teams of the Premier League, he must not be able to play so well! This topic ends, Milwaukee Al has proved himself in the Premier League, Larson also used the Golden Boots of the Premier League to keep himself in the history of the Premier League. Ronaldo's personal transcript is very good, but Barcelona is still behind Real Madrid in La Liga. This is what Fact, goodbye."
