Chapter 123: Liverpool’s Declaration of Revival (Second update, please vote for me)
"The game has entered garbage time. Manchester City will definitely not be able to pose any threat to Liverpool because they have not even dealt with their own problems! There is no suspense in this game. Liverpool will never give up the championship with a two-goal lead. Give in..."
The commentator on the TV is still chattering. ("") But this time, Manchester City fans did not curse the TV broadcaster for giving Chen Yingxiong a close-up like before after Aguero scored.
Not only the Manchester City fans in the stands at Wembley Stadium, but also the Manchester City fans in front of the TV were silent.
Many Manchester City fans even chose to turn off the TV directly because they couldn't bear this kind of blow, out of sight and out of mind.
But that didn't stop Manchester City's collapse.
Yes, a rout.
In the 86th minute, substitute Adam Johnson missed a goal in front of the goal and the score became 4:1. Liverpool won an undisputed victory!
The game was not over yet, and the Manchester City fans in the stands had already begun to leave. If it was just an ordinary failure, maybe they could take it calmly, but if the reason for the failure was their own internal strife, then they would absolutely not be able to accept it.
This time, it’s not because they don’t want to see Liverpool slaughter their favorite team with a big score, but because they can’t accept that their favorite team would choose to lose the championship in such a way. It’s really a loss and a loss!
When the game finally ended, more than half of the Manchester City fans in the stands had left.
Manchester City's performance today really disappointed them.
The Liverpool fans in the stands jumped to their feet at the referee's whistle and gave out deafening cheers. So much so that the commentators had to raise their voices to avoid being drowned in the cheering frenzy.
"The game is over! Liverpool are champions!"
"The game is over! Liverpool is the winner of the League Cup this season!"
"The referee blew the whistle at the end of the game. It was a final without any suspense! Liverpool defeated Manchester City. They are the well-deserved champions!"
"Although it is only a League Cup championship, it is still very precious to Liverpool. ("") Because now that Liverpool are not picky eaters, they are extremely eager for any championship!"
"So far this season, Liverpool have won two championships and they look like they are unstoppable!"
※※※
As soon as the game ended, his colleagues and substitute players rushed onto the field like crazy and hugged the Liverpool players on the field.
Martin O'Neill himself seemed very calm.
He stood on the sidelines, applauding, but his eyes fell on Chen Yingxiong.
He thought of the "big words" Chen Yingxiong said before the season.
Of the four championships, he has already won one, and there are three left. Can he really achieve this goal?
This kid really led the reserve team to the semi-finals of the League Cup. It's amazing...
How many more surprises can you bring us, hero?
※※※
Chen Yingxiong hugged his teammates and cheered for a League Cup. Perhaps in the eyes of others, the League Cup is completely useless.
But this is a championship after all, and the useless claims are just promoted by those who can't win this championship. It's like saying grapes are sour when they can't eat them.
As long as he is the champion, Chen Yingxiong likes it. Even if it is the championship of some invitational tournament, he will win it.
Last summer, Liverpool already won two championships, one was the Beijing Temple Cup and the other was the Community Shield. Others may not pay attention to these two champions, but Chen Yingxiong put in 100% effort.
On the road to chasing Messi's glory, he still has many championships to win. He will not stop until he has completely trampled Messi under his feet.

At the League Cup award ceremony, when Gerrard, as the captain of Liverpool, raised the League Cup, the atmosphere reached its climax. Countless red confetti fell from the sky, and the Liverpool fans at the scene spontaneously sang. "You'll Never Walk Alone", Liverpool's football anthem. (《》)
This scene is regarded by many Liverpool fans as a sign of the team's complete revival. Because when you only win one league championship, many people will curl their lips and say it's luck. Anyone can win a championship as long as they are willing to spend money. Didn't a team like Blackburn rely on the British steel king to spend money and win a league championship?
How do you prove that you are different from Blackburn? How do you tell everyone that Liverpool is a real giant?
Of course, one championship after another, using more championships to silence those who doubted us before!
League champions, Community Shield champions and now League Cup champions.
Next, there is the FA Cup champion, the league champion, and the Champions League champion!
We at Liverpool pursue glory and our pace of rejuvenation will never stop.
"Congratulations to Liverpool! They are the League Cup champions in the 2014-2015 season!" the commentator said.
But maybe even he himself can't believe that from now on, Liverpool will be like hungry wolves, not letting go of any championship they can win...

When the entire Liverpool team returned home with the League Cup title, they received a warm welcome from the Liverpool fans. Liverpool even held a parade to celebrate. Suarez came to participate as scheduled, but he did not use a wheelchair, he came on crutches.
When such a celebration falls into the eyes of some people, they will naturally laugh. Thinking that it is just a League Cup championship, Liverpool fans are so excited, which shows how far Liverpool has fallen...
But Liverpool people ignore the ridicule and sarcasm of others. Why do they have to reflect and frown after winning the championship? We Liverpool fans just want to celebrate.
At the airport, facing the enthusiastic Liverpool fans, the Liverpool team showed them the trophy, and then Chen Yingxiong was elected by everyone to say a few words to the enthusiastic fans.
Chen Yingxiong was not polite, took the microphone and stood at the front of the team.
"Guys!" he shouted, raising a hand.
The scene immediately fell silent. Everyone looked at Chen Yingxiong, wanting to hear what he was going to say.
"I promise you! This!" Chen Yingxiong raised the League Cup with one hand.
"It will definitely not be the last championship - I mean this season!"
"I also promise you that this is definitely not the last season like this! In the future, we will have many, many opportunities to cheer for the champion! I hope you won't be tired of always having to go to the streets to welcome the champion!"
His teammates and fans behind him burst into laughter.
Then Chen Yingxiong turned to club chairman Chen Xing, who came back with the team, and winked at him: "Mr. Chairman, don't forget to add an extra trophy display room in the new stadium construction plan, otherwise I'm worried that it won't be able to fit in! "
※※※
Samuel Mertz did not go to the airport to welcome the returning team, but chose to watch the live broadcast on TV at home.
When he heard Chen Yingxiong's words, he couldn't help laughing.
It’s exactly the same as what he said outside his house that day!
On the TV, the club chairman, the Chinese Chen Xing, smiled and nodded, obviously agreeing!
※※※
Chen Yingxiong's speech at the airport did not attract the attention of the entire English media. No matter how high the League Cup is, it is still tasteless after all. Such a championship does not hold much value. The media even said: "Just look at how Liverpool can reach the semi-finals with a reserve team and a Chen Yingxiong, and you can know the level of this competition..."
Since it has no gold content, naturally no one pays attention to it.
So these people missed a historic moment.
——This is Liverpool’s revival declaration!
Because Chen Yingxiong is not the kind of person who talks for fun.
※※※
The joy that the League Cup brought to Liverpool has not disappeared. Thirty-one miles away in Manchester, another thing is happening.
The Manchester media did not continue to fight against Chen Yingxiong after the game this time because they had more important things to report and pay attention to.
Just one day after the game, the conflict between Manchester City coach Mancini and Aguero during the halftime break was revealed by the media.
Although everyone knows that the locker room is a restricted area for the media, and many head coaches strictly prohibit players from revealing what happens in the locker room to the media, there is a saying in the world that "there is no airtight wall", so there is always There will be many so-called "secrets" that will be revealed to the media and then spread through the media.
However, many such rumors will be refuted as rumors by the parties and teams involved.
As for what the truth is, only the devil knows.
But this time, it's different.
The media who exposed this incident swore and vividly described the intense scenes of the conflict at that time, down to the details of what both sides said.
And the most important thing is that this time, there was no refutation from the two parties involved.
However, neither head coach Mancini nor Aguero stood up and said anything, but remained silent.
After losing the League Cup final, the silence between the two seemed particularly strange.
Not only them, but other Manchester City players also fell silent. When reporters approached them for confirmation, they remained silent.
After losing the League Cup final and being bombarded by the team's main striker, Mancini is now in a desperate situation. He is eager to get support from the club's top management and does not care about responding to the media.
But when he thought he could get support from Mubarak, he discovered that he was wrong.
Mubarak left the field early before the game was over. The reporter who reported this incident specifically wrote: "When Mubarak left the field, he looked very dissatisfied and angry. This was when he served as chairman of Manchester City Club. This is the first time I have left early since..."
For Mancini, this is actually a pretty bad sign.
And he didn't know that Aguero's agent had made his request to the Manchester City club.
Want Aguero to renew his contract with the team? Yes, but the club has to get rid of the incompetent Mancini first. As for who will replace him, Aguero doesn't care, as long as it's not Mancini.
For a time, the Italian coach's position in Manchester City became precarious.
Chen Yingxiong would never have imagined that in this final, he would have to force another head coach to sack...
