Chapter 1171 Europe is here
In the aerial footage, yellow and blue buses appeared on the highway one after another, forming a spectacular convoy that stretched as far as the eye could see.
These buses are painted with the Leeds City team crest and large portraits of each Leeds City player.
There is one person in each car. The rear of the car is a close-up of the player, and the sides of the car are filled with various wonderful performances of the players - very much like those "Itasha" cars that have their favorite anime characters printed on the car.
After seeing the helicopter in the sky, the driver's window of the bus was opened, and someone stretched out a Leeds City flag and waved it towards the camera lens on the helicopter.
Press the speaker again.
A continuous sound of horns echoed throughout this section of the highway.
"...The much-watched Leeds City fans' convoy finally arrived on the outskirts of Paris at three o'clock this afternoon... This is the first time that the Leeds City team has appeared on the stage of a European final. Leeds City fans also gave Great enthusiasm... They set off from Leeds, England, with a convoy of thirty-seven buses. , set off at five o'clock this morning, and after more than nine hours of journey, they are finally arriving at the end of their trip, the Paris World Cup Stadium... It's not that we have never seen fans who come to watch away games on buses, but we have never seen them. So many fans came to watch the game on buses..."
A close-up shot of the front windshield of the leading car appeared in the TV broadcast. Through this telephoto close-up, the driver in the cab could be seen.
"The driver of the first car in the convoy was Neil Mullin, a famous Leeds City fan. He was originally an ordinary truck driver, but because he placed a bet on Leeds when Leeds City was least favored last season, City can win the Premier League championship, become rich overnight, and become famous overnight... However, the wealthy Mullin still insists on working as a truck driver. This time he responded to the call of Leeds City fans to drive a bus to Paris to watch the game. As the driver of the first bus, he took 50 Leeds City fans across half of the UK and across the sea of England and France. tunnel, and finally arrived safely on the outskirts of Paris... only one step away from their destination! ”
"Like Neil Mullin, the drivers of the thirty-seven buses are Leeds City fans. Many of them are bus, bus and truck drivers on weekdays. In order to come to this game, they They all asked for leave and joined the team. This is why there is such a spectacular bus convoy... It is really refreshing for Leeds City fans to choose this way of appearance, starting from this morning. Starting last month, the media and the Internet throughout Europe were discussing their action. They themselves also broadcast it live online... Although it was worrying that after more than nine hours of traveling, Leeds City fans were still worried. How much energy is spent on cheering on the field, but just look at the slogans on the cars, that is the inner thoughts of Leeds City fans..."
The helicopter went around the side of the convoy and took a picture of the sentence on the side of the first car:
"Europe is coming!"

“It’s not unusual to charter a car to watch a game, but chartering so many cars is really awesome...”
Yan Yan pointed at the TV screen with the pickled chicken feet in his hand and said.
In the rental house of Chu Yifan and his girlfriend, many of his former teammates from the Dongchuan Middle School football team, including Yan Yan, Mao Xiao, Meng Xi, etc., all gathered here. While eating a variety of takeaways, I watched the special program before the game - Tengfei Video entered a dedicated live broadcast nine hours before the Europa League final.
From the introduction of both sides of the game, to the performance review of the main players, as well as information about the two teams' pre-match training, interviews with fans... and so on, the process of the two teams reaching the Europa League finals was also inserted. Of course, The focus is on Leeds City.
It's like treating the Europa League final with the same treatment as broadcasting the Champions League final... No, even the Champions League final doesn't have such a battle, and it might be almost the same as the World Cup final.
All this is of course because this game is the first time that Chinese players have appeared - this is the first time that Chinese players have appeared in the finals of a European war.
How else to say that Hu Lai is now the number one idol of Chinese football?
He has indeed created too many firsts in Chinese football:
The first time he won the European league championship, the first time he won the top scorer in the European League, the first World Cup Golden Boot, the first player to score in the Champions League main game, the first player in the Europa League The player who scored in the main game, and now the first player to play in the Europa League final...
Just because of these firsts, the Chinese media and fans will pay great attention to him.
Regarding this game, a week ago, there was overwhelming publicity on the Internet.
This wave, Tengfei Video has really made a lot of money - when they won the broadcast rights of the Europa League, no one took it seriously. The influence of the Europa League in China cannot be compared with that of the Champions League, nor can it be compared with that of the Champions League. The traditional five major European leagues are on par.
This is a completely useless event.
Who could have thought at that time that one day a Chinese player would appear in the Europa League and reach the finals?
There is no need to worry about the attention of the Europa League next season, because Saria has confirmed to qualify for the Europa League next season. As the most popular star among domestic female fans, Zhang Qinghuan's participation in the Europa League is also a huge benefit for Tengfei Video.
"I feel like us Chinese fans are crazy enough, but others are even crazier than us..." Meng Xi said with emotion.
"Isn't this nonsense? That's my finals." Mao Xiao complained about his friend.
"Look at this football atmosphere..."
"There is no need to be envious. If our national team can reach the World Cup finals one day, do you believe that thousands of fans can collectively charter a flight to watch?" Yan Yan said.
Meng Xi thought for a moment: "What kind of scene should that be...I can't think of it."
Tang Xiuyuan opened the door and saw the men having a heated discussion. She smiled and said, "Hey, are you all here? I brought you wine..."
Yan Yan and others turned around and saw two heavy plastic bags on Tang Xiuyuan's arms. They quickly jumped up from the sofa and ran to pick them up: "Oh, sister-in-law, why did you pick them up by yourself? Call Captain Chu and ask him to go down and get them. Ah!”
Chu Yifan himself took a bag of beer and handed it to Zhong Shihao who came up. He then took off his girlfriend's shoulder bag and asked with concern: "Thank you for your hard work. Why are you so late today?"
Tang Xiuyuan smiled at him: "Work overtime temporarily."
"Have you had dinner?"
“I had a bowl of noodles downstairs in the company.”
"Then let's continue eating." Chu Yifan pointed to the takeout boxes piled on the coffee table.
Yan Yan, who was taking the beer out of the plastic bag, also greeted: "Sister-in-law is here for a late-night snack!"
Tang Xiuyuan did not refuse, but said with a smile: "Okay, when I take a shower and change clothes, you can eat first."
Seeing Tang Xiuyuan enter the bedroom, Yan Yan came close to Chu Yifan and whispered: "The game is in the middle of the night, won't it disturb my sister-in-law?"
Chu Yifan shook his head: "She will watch with us."
Yan Yan's eyes widened: "She doesn't watch football!"
"She said it was to cheer for her juniors."
Yan Yan suddenly realized.
Tang Xiuyuan was the school beauty of their Chu team in Dongchuan Middle School. She was his senior and naturally Hu Lai's senior.
"It's better to be my senior sister. If it were your former girlfriend, we would have to go to KTV to fight guerrillas..." Yan Yan sighed with emotion, "When are you going to get married?"
"It's still early..."
"Hold on, Captain Chu. Senior sister is a good girl. She was the dream goddess of many people in our school..."
"Why do you worry about this!"
"Don't I think that I won't have to go to KTV or bars to watch football in the future? Save some money...Old Moonlight, it's a lot of pressure..."
"You live your life day by day without a girlfriend, so where do you spend your money?"
"I don't know either... Is there a song you haven't heard?"
"What song?"
"The top ten unsolved mysteries - where did all the wages go!"

"This is the World Cup stadium that once hosted the World Cup final..."
On the bus, Leeds City fans looked at the behemoth outside through the window glass, and they all sighed. Some people even fell into a daze, and they didn't know what they were thinking.
"Guys, we're here!" David Miller stood at the front of the car and shouted to his partners in the car. "This is where we are about to fight! Have you seen those media shots?"
He pointed out the car window.
"As soon as we got off the bus, we showed off our flag and sang our songs. We want the whole world to see how awesome our Leeds City fans are!"
Buses parked in a parking area specially designated for them. Fans wearing Leeds City jerseys filed out, and then attracted the attention of all the media present - or these media are here specifically. Wait for them.
The Leeds City fans who gathered together were like crazy. In front of the cameras of media from all over the world, they waved their flags and began to sing various songs to cheer for Leeds City.
There was aerial photography in the air and a circle of cameras in front of them. Before the game even started, Leeds City fans temporarily became the protagonists outside the stadium.
Some fans of Sevilla Navigators outside saw this scene and couldn't help but complain: "It's a good stunt, but that's all!"
"You even chartered a car to watch the game? This is indeed the first time a team has participated in the Europa League final. A group of country bumpkins came to town..."
"The British just like to do these sensational things! Looking at their posture, I thought their team was already the king of Europe!"
They cast a disdainful glance over there while deliberately walking past reporters and Leeds City fans.
Then they waved the flag of the Navigator of Seville and sang the songs of the Navigator.
The game hasn't started yet, but the competition between the two teams has already started from here and now. (End of chapter)
