Godfather Of Champions

Chapter 571

"I thought that in such an important final, both teams would be surrounded by stability. The opening ten minutes must be a stage of mutual testing. After all, this is the first time in the history of the two teams. But I was wrong, AC Milan may They wanted to be stable first, but Tony Twain didn't give them such a chance. Nottingham Forest's series of offensives after the kick-off was not a bluff. They successfully knocked on the door of AC Milan in the eighth minute! They didn't proceed at all. Any temptations... it looks like they are very, very familiar with the AC Milan team!"

The narrator said excitedly.

The fact is also true, Tang En is very familiar with AC Milan, and Albertini is also very familiar with AC Milan, what else needs to be tested first?

When Twain was a fan, he couldn't understand why the coaches of some teams would say "I don't know this team" when talking about their opponents. This kind of situation happened from time to time, especially in those wealthy clubs. It's even more common with head coaches. Because the opponent is a weak team, so you don't bother to understand? But when it comes to heavyweight duels, such things still exist.

So after he became the official head coach of Nottingham Forest, he attached great importance to the intelligence collection of opponents. In the beginning, the club didn't have that strength, so he hired those temporary workers at his own expense to help him collect intelligence. Later, when the team's performance got better and better, the club's requirements for him in this regard were all satisfied. Today's Nottingham Forest already has a complete intelligence collection system. Tang once told Tang Jing before that they didn't care who the opponent was. Anyway, they had information on the teams that had reached the top 16, and they would call up information on whoever was drawn. This is the work of the intelligence gathering system.

Tang En firmly believed in the ancient Chinese wisdom of "knowing yourself and the enemy, and winning a hundred battles". No matter how strong your own team is, you can't ignore the collection of opponent intelligence. Even if you don't need it for this game, you don't know when it will be needed.

From the first day he took the official post of head coach of Nottingham Forest, he took the intelligence gathering of those European giants clubs as a long-term job. You must know that his team was still in the League One (later called the English Championship) at that time. He paid for this kind of thing and found someone to do it, and he didn't bother the club. After waiting for the team to reach the Super League, he took out the information he collected and asked the club to take over the job.

The intelligence gathering work on AC Milan began at that time, and he didn't know that he would meet AC Milan in the final of the European Champions Cup in the 0607 season today. At that time, he just thought that if Nottingham Forest wanted to grow stronger and embark on the road to a wealthy family, then these wealthy teams would inevitably become his opponents and enemies in the not-too-distant future. There is no reference and research value at all.

Today, AC Milan's defense was broken in the opening eight minutes. In addition to the excellent performance of the players themselves and the opponent's tactics, years of intelligence collection work also contributed.

Tang En and everyone around him hugged and celebrated. The first ball came so quickly, making everyone feel that the championship trophy was getting closer to them.

On the other hand, after Ancelotti vented his anger at the canopy of the coach's bench, he didn't get up and rush to the sidelines in a hurry like some coaches, reminding the players how...he just sat in his position .

AC Milan is a traditional strong team and has experienced countless times of this moment. Each of these players is an elite among the elite. They have seen big scenes and know how to deal with them. It's just a conceded goal, and it won't make the whole team panic, especially it's only eight minutes. For AC Milan, they still have 82 minutes to equalize and overtake.

Sure enough, Maldini assumed the role of captain on the field. He comforted his teammates and encouraged them loudly. The teammates who were slightly shocked by the premature loss of the ball quickly calmed down and their morale gradually recovered. The impact of that conceded goal on them is slowly fading.

Of course Tang En also saw this scene. He snorted through his nose. Naturally, he didn't expect to defeat a team like AC Milan with one goal, otherwise the world would be too easy to win.

It's a tough final, never going to be easy for either side...

※ ※ ※

The game restarted, AC Milan also gave up the plan to continue to test after the kick-off, and launched a fierce offensive against the hinterland of the Forest team. But...in the face of the forest team's wall defense, the effect is very small...

Pirlo found that when the Nottingham Forest team shrank their defense, the blank space between the midfield and the backcourt no longer existed, and he could no longer use this to attack. Can only deal with the forest team slowly outside.

The Forest team sent Albertini to mark him specifically, and Kaka was handed over to George Wood, who couldn't run to death.

The forest team used relentless running and frequent fouls, as well as rough movements to stop AC Milan's attack, and it seemed to work well.

Pirlo couldn't comfortably send the football to where it should go. Even if he sent it, Kaka might not be able to securely get it under Wood's close pressure. Even if Kaka got it, Inzaghi couldn't come out in the crowd to take the shot. In the end, either Kaka or Seedorf could only end an attack with a long shot.

This is really a helpless thing.

Nottingham Forest used unreasonable aggressive running and full-court defense to disrupt AC Milan's defense.

This tactic worked very well within the first twenty minutes of the game.

AC Milan intends to use ball possession and passing to find opportunities according to their own rhythm, but they did not receive the results they wanted during the 20 minutes of the game. Because their possession and passing was in disarray under Forest's pressing.

Kaka has basically been under Wood's freeze all the time and rarely played. Under the defense of Albertini, what Pirlo did the most was not the through pass he was good at, but the return pass and cross pass.

Time passed by and the score was still 1:0, with Nottingham Forest leading.

Ancelotti stood up from the coach's bench and walked to the sidelines, but he didn't say anything, just quietly observed the situation. The vision of standing up is much better than sitting on the coach's bench, and you can clearly see some situations.

It's only twenty-five minutes now, and he's not in a hurry. Although he conceded a goal, he believes that the final victory must belong to his AC Milan. Why is he so confident? Because he has seen Tang En's tactics clearly, and he knows what Nottingham Forest is going to do.

Running in such a large area is a very labor-intensive job. Take a look at George Wood's defense against Kaka now, it really is inseparable, like a shadow. It was very difficult for Kaka to turn around, let alone attack. There are others, Seedorf, Pirlo, Inzaghi... They all face the "meticulous" personal care of their opponents. The forest team's gate is overcrowded, it is simply a downtown area, and it is too difficult to launch an attack in this situation. Ancelotti is not in a hurry.

He knew that the forest team's running and defending without any hesitation could last 90 minutes. Not many teams in the world could sustain such a high-intensity game rhythm for 90 minutes. Maybe the Koreans could... right?

Ancelotti does not believe that the Forest team can persist in such an inseparable defense for 90 minutes. He believes that as the game time goes by, the forest team's seemingly indestructible defense will definitely reveal loopholes, and the seasoned AC Milan will definitely seize this opportunity to reverse the game situation in an instant.

The most important thing now is not to be disrupted by the opponent's defense. They steal from them. AC Milan still has to stick to its own football style. Ancelotti knew that Twain wanted to drag the slow-moving AC Milan into the fast-paced Premier League, using speed and chaos to win. He can't let the other party get what he wants.

He observed from the sidelines, then shouted Pirlo's name, and made a hand gesture to him.

Pirlo nodded in understanding.

He and his head coach have the same idea. At this time, if you blindly go straight, you will only fall into the opponent's trap. Continuous mistakes will damage the confidence and morale of your teammates, and at the same time give the opponent too many opportunities to counterattack.

Now for AC Milan, the focus of the game is not to equalize the score, but to control the football more under their own feet, stabilize the situation, and slowly deal with the opponent.

※ ※ ※

"Ancelotti is an old fox... Although I don't like him, I have to admit that he does have two skills." Tang En muttered to himself on the coach's bench.

Ancelotti saw his intentions, and he also saw Ancelotti's thoughts. This kind of final is the best stage for the head coach to fight wits and courage. His opponent is not an idiot who can be defeated casually, but a head coach who has already won the Champions Cup once. Take the championship alone, the opponent has much more experience than Twain.

Fatty An wants to drag the forest team until the forest team is exhausted, and then use AC Milan's experience and sophistication to decide the outcome.

Tang En didn't deny that his team couldn't stick to the defensive tactics like 90 minutes, but he also wouldn't give Ancelotti a chance to comeback. The only way is to score more goals before the team's physical exhaustion, establish the victory as soon as possible, and completely crush AC Milan's remaining hope of a comeback.

Do you want to come back? I'll score a few more goals and see how you turn it over!

Is it possible that you can still turn the sky over?

Twain didn't think his team was AC Milan in 2005, and he never admitted that AC Milan in front of him was Liverpool in 2005. He arrogantly thought that he was the sky above his head.

"Do you need to step up your offense, Tony?" Chris Lark asked from the side.

Tang En turned his head to look at the silent Tang.

Tang, who was staring at the field, noticed two gazes from the side. He turned his head and shook. "No. I think the current situation is very good. The defense has been stabilized. We have plenty of opportunities to counterattack. It depends on whether Ribery and the others can seize it."

Tang En nodded in agreement: "I also have the same opinion. Strengthening the offense requires sufficient troops, and we are currently defending and cannot spare too many manpower. And David, you must know that AC Milan is very cunning... If we Taking risks will allow Pirlo and Kaka to seize the opportunity...the situation is good now and nothing needs to be changed."

"Tony is so conservative..." Chris Rack had to come to such a conclusion in his heart, even though he had made it many times... In his case, maybe before the game, the team would let the team play against AC Milan here In the soul-stirring battle, you must win if you win! He didn't like conservatism, but he expressed understanding and respect for Tang En's decision. After all, this is the final of a major game, and any head coach would not dare to take risks in such a game, it would be a joke about their own coaching career.

Think of that dreary 2003 final at Manchester's Old Trafford, in which two Italian teams drew 0-0 in 120 minutes before relying on penalties to decide the winner. Chris Lack watched the game in front of the TV. He disdains Italian football because of this. He believes that the penalty shootout was planned by the coaches of the two sides before the final. It’s okay to win such a championship. sense of accomplishment.

How did he know that Tony Twain had studied the final match countless times. For the vast majority of fans, that game was of no value to watch. But for the head coaches, it is indeed a good teaching material for study and research.

※ ※ ※

After explaining Pirlo to Pirlo on the sidelines, Ancelotti allowed the team to stabilize and enter their own rhythm, then walked back, sat down on the coach seat again, and never got up again.

The 4-0 sweep of Barcelona that year was a long-awaited final, but how many years does it happen once? If all the finals were prepared based on that final, the head coach himself would collapse after losing a goal.

Ancelotti does not think that the second European Champions Cup in his coaching career is easy to win. He prepared for the worst and prepared to do his best with his opponents.

※ ※ ※

It is now the thirty-seventh minute of the first half, and there are only more than eight minutes until the end of the half. The score remained unchanged. The 1:0 score on the big screen made the AC Milan fans a little silent. The Olympic Stadium in Athens was filled with singing from Forest fans.

They sang that somewhat old team song, singing it over and over again.

At this moment, the hearts of Forest team fans are as sweet as drinking honey, and this old song is also very energetic to sing.

Michael Bernard and his guys sang and shouted to their heart's content despite the hoarseness of their voices. The Forest fans became the protagonists in the stands of the stadium. They vented their emotions accumulated in the past 27 years without caring about the feelings of their opponents.

"We are the strongest team in the world!"

※ ※ ※

In the 40th minute, AC Milan began to change the rhythm after besieging Forest's goal in succession, and recovered slightly. The first half is almost over, and AC Milan has to maintain its strength.

Nottingham Forest launched an offensive. Although it was not a fast break this time, it was still a threat. The Forest team is not only a fast break team. Twain lined up a single striker lineup. He placed five people in the midfield, 4411 against AC Milan's 4411. Ruud van Nistelrooy is a single arrow, behind him is Van der Vaart who is responsible for organizing the team's offense. The reason why the Dutchman was allowed to start was because Twain considered that when there was a need to play positional warfare, let him organize the offense and at the same time share the pressure of Albertini. After all, Demi still needs to defend Pirlo firmly. not much.

The football was handed over to Ruud van Nistelrooy. He was closely marked and couldn't turn around, so he had to pass the football back to Van der Vaart who came up from the midfield.

As soon as Van der Vaart got the ball, Gattuso leaned forward.

Ancelotti knew that Van der Vaart was playing the role of a midfield commander at Nottingham Forest. Dunn decided to let him start the game by letting him organize the attack. So as long as Van der Vaart is frozen, the Forest team's offense has no other way to go except defensive counterattack.

Since George Wood can contain Kaka and Albertini can entangle Pirlo, why can't our Gattuso freeze the opponent's Van der Vaart? What's more, Ancelotti has always believed that Gattuso is the best defensive midfielder in the world.

George Wood? That's just a star blown out by the English media who like to brag...

Well, before this game, Ancelotti really thought so.

Now, he had to revise his evaluation of Wood. A defensive midfielder who can make the world's best midfielder Kaka useless for nearly 40 minutes cannot be boasted by the media.

Kaka went back to participate in the defense, and Wood followed. He is no longer a rookie who had nothing to do with me in the team's offense. After Albertini's training for three consecutive years, he has learned how to participate in the team's offense.

He could see that Van der Vaart needed support, and Gattuso's defense made the Dutch miserable. If no one came up to respond, the Forest team's attack would have only two results-one, Van der Vaart hurriedly passed the football, the ball Lost; Second, Van der Vaart's ball was directly cut off by Gattuso on the spot.

Either way, it's not a good result for the Forest team.

Albertini is getting old, and it is better for the young and strong Wood to do things that require sprinting back and forth.

George ran up, but without shouting, he believed Van der Vaart knew he was coming.

Sure enough, under Gattuso's constant harassment, Van der Vaart passed the football to Wood.

After Wood took the ball, he didn't stay long. He directly distributed the football to Ribery, who was cutting into the middle.

Without the ball, the pressure on Van der Vaart was much lighter. He shook off Gattuso and ran to the left. Tang En asked him and Ribery to switch positions frequently during the game. Since both of them have the ability to play in the center and also have the ability to play on the left, this kind of position change can effectively enrich the forest team's offensive routines and confuse the opponent. defense.

Ambrosini followed Ribery to the middle, Gattuso hesitated and decided to follow van der Vaart, who knows if Ribery will pass the football back? Van der Vaart's performance on the left cannot be ignored.

Franck Ribery found that there was no gap in the opponent's defense because of the change of positions between himself and van der Vaart. Ambrosini still followed him closely, and he passed the football back to Wood.

Wood's position was even further back, and for a while, no AC Milan players came up to force him.

After carefully observing the two matches between Nottingham Forest and Chelsea, Ancelotti decided that although Wood had an offensive talent, he could not use it freely. As long as he was kept as far away from the goal as possible, his threat would plummet.

So in this game, Wood's defensive strategy is to keep him from getting close to the penalty area, and he passes the ball? Let him pass it on outside.

Ribery passed the football to Wood, and wanted to make a wall-to-wall cooperation with Wood. In fact, Wood thought so too. When he saw Ribery suddenly turn around and go straight into the penalty area, he launched a direct pass.

It's a pity that Ambrosini saw through the simple tactical cooperation of the Forest team and put Ribery on the ground just as he turned around, preventing the attack.

The referee's whistle sounded, Ambrosini fouled, and Nottingham Forest won a free kick nearly 30 meters away from the goal.

The specific number displayed on the TV screen was twenty-eight meters.

Albertini, who was originally in the backcourt, saw the Forest team get a free kick in the frontcourt and started to run forward. Everyone in the forest team seemed to be waiting for him. Before he ran, no one went up to place the football and let the football stop at the foul spot.

"Albertini ran up, it seems that he is going to take this free kick!" The commentators of England and Italy were excited at the same time.

"Wall of five!" Maldini shouted loudly in the penalty area after confirming that the free kick was taken by Albertini.

He couldn't understand the free kick level of his old friend very well.

In the 2000 Champions Cup, AC Milan played against Barcelona, ​​Albertini played against Rivaldo, two world-class free kick masters singled out, and finally ended with a 2:2 tie. The final score of that game was 3:3. Without Albertini, it must have been another result.

Now that he is old, some people must think that his set-piece skills have also deteriorated, right? It seems so, in Nottingham Forest, Gareth Bale is the first free kick taker, the second is also Eastwood. But that's because Albertini doesn't play often.

Just in the farewell game prepared by AC Milan for him in January this year, the old guy also used a long-range free kick to blast away Barcelona's goal.

Anyone who dares to underestimate his free kick will be unlucky!

Maldini did not dare to neglect, he even stepped forward and directed his teammates to line up the wall.

Albertini ran over, picked up the football, and carefully placed it on the turf.

When he raised his head and stood up straight, AC Milan's human wall had not yet been lined up. Dida is directing the wall, and Maldini is also directing. The scene looks a bit chaotic. I don't know if this is a deliberate psychological tactic by AC Milan.

Albertini was unmoved. He backed away and waited quietly for his opponent to line up the wall.

AC Milan's crowd lined up longer than usual, but the Forest players did not feel impatient, because they also had their own things to do.

Ribery suddenly came up and high-fived Albertini standing in front of the ball. "Come on, Captain!" He turned and walked away.

The Frenchman may have just been on a whim, but he took the lead, and the other Forest players thought it was cool, so they ran up one by one. The second high-five was van der Vaart, and the third was Ruud van Nistelrooy: "Do I need to make up shots?" The Dutch shooter laughed.

Many players from the forest team came to line up to give their captain a high five. This has never happened before in the forest team's previous games.

Both the television broadcast and the commentators noticed what was happening on the field. No one cares about when AC Milan will be able to line up their human wall.

"Let's see what's happening on the pitch... ah, all the Forest players gathered around Albertini, high-fiving him, talking about something..."

In fact, AC Milan's human wall has been lined up, but the matter of the Forest team is not over yet, and now it's their turn to wait.

If the referee hadn't forcibly intervened, I'm afraid even goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar would have rushed up to high-five Albertini. If AC Milan's dawdling on the wall was really a psychological tactic against Nottingham Forest, then now they have been counterattacked by the Forest team...

Chris Rack turned his head and glanced at Dunn, he thought it must be Dunn's idea. Tang En shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, yelling wronged: "I didn't do it! I never thought that such a scene would happen... Don't blame me for all the stunts, okay?"

Chris Lark laughed happily: "Who makes you always inseparable from all kinds of gimmicks?"

Wood gave Albertini a high five at the end. Everyone gave him high fives. At first, Albertini was surprised, but later he accepted the special treatment with a smile on his face. It was only when he saw Wood that the expression on his face changed.

He has always wanted to teach Wood to play free kicks, but this kid has zero talent in this area. It is not easy to lift the football into the goal frame. Wouldn't it be difficult to force him to bypass the wall and the goalkeeper? Make it harder?

After Wood and Albertini clapped their hands, they opened their mouths to say something, but were interrupted by the referee's whistle.

The two turned their heads to look at the unhappy German referee Van der, and Albertini pushed Wood with a smile: "Go away, George, don't hinder me from scoring."

Wood didn't move, "I'm here to cover you."

Albertini smiled wider: "The whole world knows you can't take free kicks."

"Then I'll watch from the side." Wood insisted on not giving in, and Albertini couldn't do anything about him.

After this scene behind the human wall, Maldini really didn't know what he should feel like. It looks like Demy made a lot of new friends in England and enjoyed the last few years of his career, and he should be happy about that. But why would he be a little jealous and dissatisfied when he showed such a close comradeship in front of him as an opponent?

"Well, George, it's up to you. If you want to learn something, learn it... I don't have much chance to teach you any more." Albertini turned to Wood. "You definitely can't learn free kicks, so I'll teach you... The most important thing at this time is psychology, yours here..." He poked his heart, "You must be calm. The more critical the moment, the more calm you must be." Calm down."

After finishing speaking, Albertini turned around, looked at the opposite wall and AC Milan's goal, ignored George Wood beside him, and the smile on his face disappeared.

The figures of the teammates are no longer on the court, the wall? opponent? It's all gone. In Albertini's eyes, apart from himself and the football under his feet, there is only an empty goal on this field.

Standing on the opposite side of him is his former parent team, AC Milan, his favorite all his life. Such a thought did not appear in Albertini's mind at this moment. He has only one thought now, and that is - to score!

This is my Dmitrio Albertini way.

※ ※ ※

In Nottingham, more than half of the bars were silent at this time. If it wasn't for the bright lights from the outside, people who didn't know the inside would think that these hotels were closed.

Kenny Burns did not go to the scene, he had to stay in his bar to help. This evening, business was exceptionally good. Those fans who couldn't go to Athens chose to come to the bar they are most familiar with, order a large glass of beer, watch the TV broadcast, and cheer for their favorite team in faraway England.

The Forest fans in the stands sang, and they also sang in the bar. Their mouths became dry and their voices became hoarse, so they took a big gulp of cold beer, and continued singing after being yelled strangely.

Now, the bar is full of people with red faces, but there is no sound. Everyone is in the same posture - holding a glass of wine, looking up at the TV hanging from the ceiling. Even the waiters and bosses are no exception.

If a stranger broke in at this time, he would definitely think that he had entered the world of Harry Potter—were all these people enchanted with petrification?

A close-up of Albertini appeared on the television screen, looking straight ahead, his eyes determined and his expression serious.

The commentator stopped talking, and there was nothing on the TV speakers except for the noise of the fans. For a while, people had the illusion that the transmission signal was broken.

"God..." Someone finally couldn't bear the oppressive silence and sighed softly.

"Beep—" the whistle sounded.

※ ※ ※

Albertini runs, kicks, shoots!

The football went straight over the wall and into the sky, looking like it was going to fly off the pitch and into the stands outside where the AC Milan fans gathered.

But that's just an illusion of people's naked eyes.

The football spins in the air, adjusts its angle, and it begins to fall toward the goal.

Dida jumped up vigorously. His height of 1.96 meters and a pair of long arms were enough to block every area above the goal.

He didn't touch football...

The soccer ball flicked through his fingertips.

Going out of bounds?

No, this is the free kick shot by Dmitrio Albertini, the free kick called "Albertini's falling leaf ball"!

After the football passed Dida's fingertips, it suddenly changed direction and fell!

It was just a momentary thing, people just felt that the trajectory of football had changed a little bit.

The ball fell like a leaf, rubbed against the lower edge of the crossbar and fell into the net.

Leaves return to their roots...

※ ※ ※

When Albertini first debuted, he showed amazing football talent. Gullit once pointed to his young teammate and said to Sacchi: "It's a bone." Sacchi replied: "Yes, he has the rhythm of playing football in his body."

The coach of AC Milan discovered his talent in long-range shots and free kicks, so he asked him to learn to play the "leaf ball" that players from the North and South at that time could only. He succeeded, in his career, "falling leaves ball" has become his trademark, he has used this stunt countless times for AC Milan to attack the city, and has repeatedly made great achievements.

Fallen leaves = Albertini = AC Milan.

For thirteen years, this has been an identity. The three of them form the most stable triangle with each other, which is indestructible.

When Albertini stepped onto the San Siro Stadium wearing a red and black sword-striped shirt. He never thought that he would become an enemy of AC Milan one day. At that time, he only wanted to play here until he retired.

When Galliani decided to tell Albertini "AC Milan no longer needs you, we have young people like Pirlo and Kaka". The shrewd manager of world football never imagined that one day, his team would face Albertini in the Champions League final, and ... he didn't need someone who gave him the most ruthless knife.

※ ※ ※

"Long live!!" A huge roar erupted from the silent city of Nottingham just now, resounding through the night sky.

"Long live Demi! Long live Nottingham Forest!!"

"He scored! He scored!! Demetrio Albertini! AC Milan's abandonment, the iconic 'leaf ball'... Nottingham Forest extended the lead to two goals!" British commentator The member was a little incoherent with excitement.

"The one we didn't want gave us a fatal blow... This is too cruel, too dramatic..." the Italian narrator said weakly, should he cheer for Albertini's treasured sword? Perhaps after the game is over like this, they can still mock themselves and say: "At any rate, it is the people trained by AC Milan that determine the outcome of the game..."

In the VIP seats, even the polite smile on Berlusconi's face disappeared, and Galliani, who was sitting next to him, leaned back in his chair, looking weak.

Not far away, Nottingham Forest club chairman Evan Dougherty and his good friend, club marketing manager Alan Adams jumped up and hugged each other to celebrate. After embracing, Evan waved his fist excitedly to the audience.

"Nice job! Nice job!" Apart from this, no other sound came out of his mouth. He doesn't care about the feelings of the senior management of the AC Milan club next to him. After being with Tang En for a long time, he has more or less contracted some of his "bad habits". Feeling?

Tang En was crazier than his "role model". After Albertini's goal, he rushed straight onto the field with his arms up high, looking garish and offbeat in his suit as he ran all the way. If it was normal, he might be knocked down by the stadium security as a streaker who suddenly broke in, but now the stadium is full of noise, and the ground seems to be shaking. The security guards didn't react when they saw Twain, and let him rush. on the pitch. Twain didn't just rush into the field and shake his fist a few times. He ran directly to Albertini, pushed the veteran to the ground, and pressed him on top.

"Damn! Demi, you did it!" These were the last words that Albertini heard clearly before he was roared by more teammates.

Tang En's passionate celebration also ignited the emotions of the Forest team fans in the stands. They sang together, singing the team song that Forest team won the Champions Cup twice - "The World is in Our Hands".

Michael, John, and Bill sang hoarsely... They were not "singing" songs, they were "roaring" songs, as if they wanted to burst their voices. It seems that otherwise it cannot express how excited they are at this moment.

"The world is in our hands! The world is in our hands! This damn world is in our hands!! We are the strongest in the fucking world-!!!"

"The singing of the Nottingham Forest fans... the singing of the Nottingham Forest fans is resounding in the European stadium again! We seem to have returned to the Olympiastadion in Munich, Germany in 1979, when Brian Clough's Nottingham Forest appeared for the first time in the Champions League In the finals, they shocked the whole of Europe as soon as they appeared. No one was optimistic about them, but they finally won the championship! Twenty-eight years later, Tony Twain took over the mantle of the old coach Clough and led a brand new team. Nottingham Forest appeared in the Champions League final, this time, he vowed not to let the champion fall! 2:0! Red is back!"

Yes_baby! Were_back_and_ready_to_go!

yes baby! We're back and ready to take back our long-lost glory!
