The hearts of the Greeks were infinitely sad. When Frizzas scored the equalizer, they seemed to have seen the glory of the gods. However, Mariano Arini ruined everything. His two goals made Greece Man becomes a defeated wolf that falls into a trap, and finally swallows the bitter fruit of failure.

... When the referee blew the long-awaited whistle of the Italians, the entire Stadium of Light seemed to be divided by a gap, half of which was sea water and half was flames.The joy of the winner and the sorrow of the loser, like a song of ice and fire, echoed and rose above the stadium.

Yes, this game is over.The Italian fans in the stands were already crazy at the moment.This is the first major trophy for the Azzurri in 22 years. No matter how confident they were before the game, they were sure that Italy would win the trophy against Greece, but when Frizzas of Greece scored the equalizer, their mood remained the same. Then fell into a trough.Then, as Mariano Arini scored twice to help Italy finally defeat Greece, when they took the trophy into their arms, everyone couldn't restrain the ecstasy in their hearts, jumped up from their seats, and threw themselves Stretching his hands high to the sky, he shouted with emotion: "We are the champions!!"

Yes, in Euro 2004, Italy was the champion.Reminiscent of the miraculous reversal against the Dutch team in the 14 finals before, this is a great champion full of gold, comparable to the miracle of Berne!

Senior Italian journalist Fiore wrote: "In a sense, this championship is greater than the World Cup champion in 82. 50 years ago, in Berne, the capital of Switzerland, Germany completed a game that will be recorded in history. But 50 years later, the Italians can proudly say that this championship can also be recorded in history. Of course, this game has other great significance. After the great match against the Dutch team, Arini scored in this game The best goal in the history of the European Cup. I can say without hesitation - this goal is enough to put him in the ranks of the best strikers in history."

In the studio of Italian national television, from the moment Liu Wen scored the overtake goal, the famous Gilgamo Bulgarelli couldn't restrain his excitement, kept choking up, and kept thanking Liu Wen: "I don't know if Mariano Arini is the best striker in the world right now. But he is, in my opinion, the best striker in the last 20 years. He held up the most difficult times in Italy. Team, I've never seen a striker as decisive as he is. Well, without further ado, let's cheer for Italy!"

If not before the game.The Portuguese arranged a large number of police forces to maintain order in advance, and the excited Italians had already broken through the siege and rushed into the venue to celebrate together.They sang and danced excitedly behind the barbed wire, and the floor of the stands rumbled and stomped.

Trapattoni stood up from the bench, walked into the court and shook hands with Rehhagel, then, Trapattoni walked to the players, was the first to hug Liu Wen, and whispered in his ear: " Thank you. Mariano, Italy is proud of you. Keep going, I believe you will become the best striker in the history of Italy."

"Is it the best striker in Italian history? I will definitely work hard." Liu Wen was flattered and nodded seriously.

now.Queen's classic "We Are the Champions" began to play.Everyone sings in unison to the music:

"Won and won&nbshting, till the end!

we are the champions!

we are the champions!

……

cause are the champions, of the world! "

……

All Italian players.From Nesta, to Cannavaro, to Totti.Vieri, even Liu Wen sang very deeply.Italy has not had a championship for 22 years, and it is the first time that all of them have won an important championship on behalf of Italy. This kind of joy and sense of honor cannot be expressed in words.

Just like the last sentence of "We Are the Champions": Because we are the champions, we are the kings of the world - yes, at this moment, Liu Wen really feels that he is the king of the world.

I still remember that since he was a child, he has always hoped that one day he can represent the Chinese team in the World Cup and gallop on the world stage.But unfortunately, God closed a window for him. He moved his soul to Italy, missed the opportunity to join the Chinese national team, and then opened a window for him. He felt the best football in the world, and accidentally entered Italian team.Until now, he actually stood on the top podium of the European Cup. Is this a mistake?

At this time, Guido Rossi, president of the Italian Football Association, came over and informed all Italian players to return to the locker room.After bathing and changing, they will stand on the highest podium and receive the golden Delaunay Cup.

……

All over the country in Italy, it is already boiling at this moment. Fans are celebrating everywhere. All the streets and alleys are full of fans who came out of warm quilts or wine. All kinds of noises were made, and the carnival belonging to the champion began.

Many more fans continued to watch the award ceremony in front of the TV. The staff of the Stadium of Light set up a podium in the center of the stadium, surrounded by countless applause and flowers.

Liu Wen clumsily put on a T-shirt symbolizing the championship, waiting to receive the championship medal.His two best friends in the Italian team, Gilardino and De Rossi put his shoulders on the left and right, singing loudly regardless of the image.

Under the leadership of Cannavaro, the Italian players sang loudly and lined up to the podium to receive their medals.

After what seemed like a long time, Liu Wen finally got the medal from UEFA President Johnson. The kind old man stretched his arms strenuously, hung the gold medal around Liu Wen's neck, and whispered encouragement in his ear: "I'm very optimistic about it." You, Mariano, keep going."

Without taking into account the deep meaning in Johnson's words, Liu Wen and the fat old man hugged each other and looked at their medals carefully.There is a line of words engraved on it: "italy 2004, mariano arini."

Then, when Cannavaro took over the Delaunay Cup from Johnson and held it high, the atmosphere of the stadium reached its peak. Countless blue confetti and white pigeons came from behind them. The bottom of the podium was sprayed up and rushed to the sky, at the same time, the sky was sprayed with confetti from the roof of the stadium.Liu Wen couldn't wait any longer, snatched the Delaunay Cup from Cannavaro, kissed the gleaming golden wall, and shouted: "We are the champions!!"

……

The celebration of winning the championship lasted until one o'clock in the morning. Godzilla, who was drunk, was dragged out by Vieri and Gilardino again, and got drunk in the attached wine at the Stadium of Light.

…That night, the happiest person was undoubtedly the Italian wine boss. All the wine lines in the country were full, and countless Italian fans carnivaled all night, drunk, and slept on the street—predictably, the next day, Italy The absenteeism rate is likely to hit a new high.

Of course, the impact of Italy's championship is far more than that. After Italy won the championship, the German "Transfer Market" website once again updated the data, and the value of all Italian players has increased slightly.The scariest thing is Liu Wen. His worth has been adjusted from 7500 million euros to 8100 million U.S. dollars, which is almost 6000 million euros.

This price shocked many football critics, and they had to question it.They put forward various arguments that Mariano Arini's worth is inflated-6000 million euros is even enough to buy an entire Serie A team in the relegation sequence in Italy. You know, just promoted to Serie A The Lecce team, the value of all their players combined is only 3900 million euros.In this regard, the founder of "Transfer Market" John Noel Kyle explained that the fluctuation of "Transfer Market"'s worth is determined by the contribution value of players in the game. He listed Liu Wen's performance in the European Cup According to the above data, 10 goals and 4 assists, both the number of goals and the number of assists are the first in the Italian team.

……

Just when all the Italians were immersed in the celebration, two unexpected transfer news caused a thousand waves and spread throughout Europe.

Article one, "Christian Vieri moves to Chelsea for 2500 million euros."

Article 5400, "Real Madrid is seeking to buy Mariano Arini with the world's first worth of [-] million euros."

Some pundits are left speechless. Just a day ago, they thought that no team would pay the most expensive price in the world for Mariano Arini. They thought Arini was young and unstable. Not worth the price, but in just one day, Real Madrid slapped their faces swollen with the offer.

……

The next day, when Liu Wen was still asleep, he was awakened by a phone call with a thick tenor voice.

"Hello, Mr. Mariano Arini? I'm Arrigo Sacchi."

"Mr. Sacchi?" Liu Wen was a little confused. Of course he knew Sacchi. This Italian coach is the founder of the AC Milan dynasty and is well-known in Italy. "What's the matter?"

"I'm at the Sunday Café on Caswell Avenue in Lisbon. Do you have time? Come out and have a cup of coffee together." On the other end of the phone, Saki said calmly. (To be continued..)
