Volume 1: When Heroes Come and Go, People Pay Attention. Chapter 77: They Are All Living in the Past (Second Update, Please Vote for Me)

What was supposed to be a closely matched city derby ended like this, which really felt like a "hasty ending".

The next day, the media pro-Liverpool Football Club were hyping up the seven consecutive kills of Liverpool's rivals in the same city. Since Chen Yingxiong joined Liverpool in the 2011-2012 season, Liverpool and Everton have played against each other seven times, and the record is... a complete victory!

Those pro-Everton media remained silent - they really had nothing to say, and they lacked strong evidence to refute the other side, so they could only humiliate themselves, so they might as well follow the example of those Evertons at Goodison Park yesterday. Just like you guys, out of sight and out of mind, let’s pretend we don’t see your ridicule...

It’s really embarrassing that Everton, a nine-time English top league champion, five-time FA Cup winner, two-time League Cup winner, and one-time winner of the Cup Winners’ Cup, has gotten to this point.

Not just in Liverpool, but in England as a whole, no one talks about this game much. Liverpool's strength has been clearly seen by everyone through the previous games.

Manchester City, Manchester United, and Chelsea have all been placed at their feet. The stronger the team, the worse it will die. Because Liverpool will take it very seriously, and when they take it seriously, their combat effectiveness can only be described as "terrifying".

Although Martin O'Neill did not admit it, everyone already knew it. Today's Liverpool is replacing Manchester United as the Premier League hegemon, and they are getting back what they once lost little by little.

One day, Liverpool will become a behemoth and everyone will hate them as much as they hate Manchester United.

Maybe in every game in the future, the neutral ball mi will cheer for their opponents. If someone can beat them, they will be praised by everyone.

Everyone wants to see Liverpool lose, and if Liverpool lose the game, no one will feel sad except their own football team.

This team of Liverpool will become an invincible existence, but at the same time it will also become a loner.

But maybe that's what Liverpool want? After the Hillsborough tragedy, they won countless sympathy, even city rivals Everton would wear black veils for them to mourn the dead.

Countless football fans from all over the world have become their fans because of Liverpool's tragedy.

But Liverpool Club definitely doesn’t want this. They would rather not attract so many neutral players.

Manchester United was also put on a cloak full of tragedy because of the Munich air disaster. But they did not wallow in the tragedy and feel sorry for themselves. Instead, they fought tenaciously against fate and won the European Champions Cup under the leadership of Sir Busby, becoming the first team in the history of English football to win the European Champions Cup.

They created their dynasty, and now they have become one of the most successful clubs in the world and the dominant player in the Premier League. Although no one sympathizes with them anymore, and many people have forgotten the Munich air disaster, they have become the most powerful team in England and won the championship with ease.

Let Liverpool choose him because he hopes to be popular, but what if he is not popular as a champion? Or do you want to be hated, spurned and cursed by everyone, but what if the champion gets soft?

There should be no suspense about this, I will definitely choose the latter. The hatred, contempt and curses of others cannot really hurt the Liverpool Football Club, but the championship trophies and honors are the real deal.

Liverpool have never gotten over the impact of the Hillsborough disaster for so many years, perhaps because they are always immersed in the tragic past.

But when Chen Yingxiong, a man with a grudge against the past, came, Liverpool could finally throw away the burden and move forward lightly.

When Chen Yingxiong was in Naples, Naples was also obsessed with the past and could not extricate himself. He could only sink in the beautiful memories, just like a drug addict.

After Chen Yingxiong went there, he declared that he would put Maradona in a museum. Although he angered the Napoli fans, he also told everyone with his practical actions that dwelling on the past is useless and does not help reality. Although it is said that "forgetting history is tantamount to betrayal", you can't always indulge in it and be unable to extricate yourself, right?

The situation of Liverpool and Naples is the same. Whether it is a beautiful memory or a painful nightmare, it is actually a fetter that binds their legs and makes them have no courage to move forward. Moreover, because they have no courage, they mistakenly believe that They have no strength, but in fact they are full of strength, but they are trapped in a fog of confusion, and their hearts and eyes are obscured by dreams.

Chen Yingxiong successfully led the entire city in Naples to withdraw from the beautiful memories of the past. Although the method was a bit drastic, it was nothing small.

This time in Liverpool, he was doing the same thing as he was in Naples, but his methods were gentler and less direct than in Naples. You know, if Liverpool dared to talk about the Hillsborough disaster, he would not be able to stay with this team for a full season, let alone have the opportunity to use his abilities to lead Liverpool out of the mist.

He cannot simply and rudely ask all Liverpool fans to forget the Hillsborough tragedy and use a knife to cut off the scars left by the Hillsborough tragedy in their hearts - that will only cause deeper and more painful scars.

On the one hand, he has to express his respect and fear for the Hillsborough case, his understanding and respect for the pain this team has experienced, and on the other hand, he has to fill the Liverpool fans with constant goals and victories because of the tragedy. And the painful soul.

The human heart is so big. When you are filled with pain, it will naturally be unable to hold anything else. Vice versa, when more and more happiness and hope come in, pain and sorrow will be driven out.

When the sun shines into the house, the haze will naturally be swept away.

Therefore, the best and only way for Liverpool to get over the painful memories of the past is to continue to bring them hope and joy, so that they have no time to think about the past. Even if they think about it occasionally, their hearts will be full of strength.

Just like when we won the league championship last season, when the families of the victims of the Hillsborough tragedy gathered in front of the Hillsborough Memorial Memorial, they mourned their lost relatives and also brought good news to comfort their souls in heaven. Even as tears welled up in their eyes, their hearts were filled with hope and the strength to move on and start a new life.

Back to that night in the Merseyside derby.

When the game ended, the stands at Goodison Park were already quite empty, and many Everton fans had already left the stadium early.

Liverpool's fans sang the Liverpool team anthem in the stands to celebrate the victory in this city derby. Although the Everton fans no longer regard this game as a derby, but out of the sworn enemy sentiment of "your unhappiness is my happiness", the Liverpool fans still have to do their best.

They were showing off to Everton.

They kept tossing for half an hour, long after the players had entered the locker room, before they moved their positions from the stands to the exit outside the stadium, where they gathered and waited to see off Liverpool.

The cleaners at Goodison Park continued to clean the stands.

After a fierce game, there must be a mess.

A lot of trash was thrown in the stands.

I remember someone used to say that foreigners are of high quality, and gave an example, saying that when watching a sports match, they would throw their garbage into a plastic bag and take it with them when they left. The stands were all clean. Later, as everyone broadened their horizons and gained more knowledge, they realized that this was all a lie. In fact, the quality of foreigners is not necessarily much higher than that of Chinese people. When it is time to throw garbage on the ground, they will never be vague.

If the quality of foreigners were so high, then the profession of cleaners would not exist abroad.

A lot of things were thrown from the stands at Goodison Park, most of which were tickets torn into pieces. This must be the product of Everton fans venting their anger.

There are also some food packaging.

The placards that cheered the players were also abandoned in the stands after ending their historical mission.

There are also things like pens, pens, and even mobile phones.

It was because he was too excited to watch the ball and it fell into the stands, but the owner didn't even notice.

The cleaners will collect these things and hand them over to the stadium management office, which will carry out lost and found things. After the owner finds that his belongings have been lost, he can come here tomorrow or after a period of time to claim his belongings.

As for other things, they are swept into the dustpan, then dumped into the trash can, transported by garbage trucks, and sent to a specialized garbage treatment plant for classification.

There was a ticket with a different format than today's game, lying quietly in the stands mixed with other pieces of paper and confetti, not noticeable.

A big broom came over and swept it and other papers into the dustpan.

Then the dustpan was lifted up, and under the influence of gravity, the dustpan naturally drooped. When the lid was closed, it fell into darkness.

When it saw the light of day again, it was dumped into a trash can along with it.

Then the trash can was lifted up by a pair of robotic arms, turned over, and the tickets rolled into the garbage truck along with the other garbage.

During this process, the ticket was like a butterfly, being disturbed by the airflow and flying. It seems like he wants to escape from here.

But it was too late. The door of the garbage truck closed quickly. Just when it was about to fly out, the door closed. It almost made it, now half outside the door and half caught in the crack.

As the garbage truck swayed, its thin and fragile body was shaking, as if it was unwilling to be imprisoned like this and wanted to break free at any time.

The speed of the car is getting faster and faster, and it is shaking more and more violently.

The surrounding scenery is gradually changing from lively to desolate, and garbage trucks have moved from the city to the suburbs.

When turning a sharp corner, the car shook suddenly and made a loud noise. It must be that the road was uneven and it ran into a depression.

But because of this shake, the hatch was released, and the ticket, which had been fluttering its wings, took the opportunity to escape.

It was like a butterfly in the night sky, dancing on the wind, carried by the sea breeze blowing in the distance, and flew towards the direction of downtown Liverpool.

The lights of the city in the distance are like the stars in the night sky, making people wonder whether they are flying towards the city of Liverpool or nine days into the sky.

Finally, I saw a glimmer of light. Although it wasn't the bright lights in the city, it was still like someone was there.

The power of the sea breeze finally began to weaken here.

The "butterfly" also flew lower and lower, lower and lower.

Finally, it couldn't even fly over a tree, and plunged into the dense trees. It was entangled in branches and leaves and could no longer move.

Its corners were trembling slightly, as if it was still trying to break free.

But after trying hard for a long time, I am still stuck in place. It finally quieted down.

As if a long time had passed, it trembled slightly again, but this time it was not "" again, but a drop of water hitting its horn.

The water droplets gradually became denser and made a crackling sound when hitting the leaves.

"Butterfly" huddled under the leaves, shivering.

It's raining. ! .
