Chapter 1631 They can do it now

Hu Lai stood in the interview area, behind him was a background board with the logos of the Champions League sponsors, and in front of him were microphones and camera lenses.

"...I am very grateful to the fans of the Blue and White Munich who were willing to applaud me after I beat their team and set a new record. I was really touched... really. I never thought that Being able to enjoy such treatment...Tonight will definitely be the most memorable moment in my career. For me, being able to receive applause from the opponent's fans is an even greater honor than breaking a record..."

There was dead silence in the home team's locker room after the game.

Losing the semifinals and being eliminated was a huge blow to the players of Blue and White Munich.

They had put in a season of hard work and now it was in vain.

Everyone who returned to the locker room didn't want to talk. They sat in their seats and looked at the ceiling or the floor aimlessly.

This was no ordinary Champions League semi-final defeat.

They were completely defeated by Hu Lai at their home court with three goals in six minutes.

As a Bundesliga giant, Blue and White Munich has never had such a tragic moment.

And now, they've made history.

It's just that this history...is unbearable to look back on.

At this time, only the players are in the locker room, and all coaches and staff are not allowed to enter.

Because this is a "sad moment" that only belongs to the players.

Their emotions cannot be truly relieved if outsiders are around.

Players need a moment to lick their wounds alone.

The door to the locker room was pushed open again.

Captain Soren Gribsch walked in holding a football.

He looked around and then looked at the team's second captain Tobias Schlitt: "Tobias, do you have a marker?"

Although Schlitt didn't understand what the captain wanted to do, he still replied: "Yes."

He pulled out a black marker pen from somewhere and handed it to Gribusch.

After the latter took the pen, he opened the cap of the pen, lowered his head and signed his name on the football he was holding.

After signing, he handed it to Schlitt nearby.

Schlitt looked at the football in confusion, then looked up at the captain: "This is..."

"Help me sign your name, Tobias," Gribusch explained. "This is the football I asked for from Hu..."

Hearing Hu Lai's name, everyone in the locker room kept their heads down in silence, and turned a blind eye to what the captain did after he came in. They all looked at him with surprise and curiosity.

Seeing everyone looking over, Gribusch simply said to the team: "This is the ball that Hu completed his hat trick in the game. He wants to collect it as a souvenir. At the same time, this is the ball that broke his record, so he wants to His teammates were giving him autographs. I happened to meet him, and I thought why there could only be autographs from one team. This game was obviously a competition between two teams... so I took it upon myself to ask for the football. I hope everyone can sign their names on this ball.”

Hearing what the captain said, a group of people looked at each other.

What is this operation?

Hu Lai wants this ball as a souvenir, that's normal.

It's normal for his teammates to give him autographs.

But as his opponents and the targets of his broken records, why should we give him autographs?

Seeing everyone's puzzled looks, Gribusch said: "Didn't you see our fans in the stands who stood up and applauded Hu after he scored the third goal? Since they can all applaud Hu , why can’t we be more generous? Both the record itself and the way he created it really deserve our respect.”

After hearing this, vice-captain Schlitt no longer hesitated, took the football and pen, and signed his name next to Gribusch's name.

Then he passes it to the next teammate.

Just like that, one after another, everyone signed their names.

After Martin Lozada signed, he originally wanted to hand the ball to the next person.

But he looked at Mark Becker next to him and hesitated.

Asking Becker to sign this seems to be stabbing him in the wound...

Just when Losada hesitated, Becker took the initiative to take the football and pen, lowered his head to sign his name on it, and then handed it to the next person.

Like a flower being passed around by beating a drum, the football was passed around in the locker room and finally returned to captain Gribusch.

"Thank you for your cooperation. Facts have proved that the reason why Blue and White Munich is a giant is not just because of results."

After Gribusch thanked everyone, he turned around and walked out the door with the football in his hands.

He originally thought he had to go to the visiting team's locker room to return the football to Hu Lai.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Hu Lai standing outside with an anxious look on his face.

I don't know why Gribusch suddenly thought of the way he waited anxiously outside the delivery room when his first child was born.

And the football in his hand turned into a newborn baby...

The strong sense of dissonance made Gribusch throw the image out of his mind.

Then he complained to Hu Lai: "What's your expression? Are you afraid that I will steal your ball?"

Unexpectedly, Hu Lai actually nodded: "Yes! If you don't come out, I'm going to break down the door!"

Gribusch took a deep breath: "I kind of regret asking my teammates to give you an autograph..."

When Hu Lai heard this, he also saw the densely packed names on the football. A smile quickly appeared on his face: "Thank you! I know you people in Munich are very particular, and you can't just slander me, a bad football player!"


He also gave Gribsch a thumbs-up.

Gribusch thrust the football into Hulay's arms, turned around and returned to the locker room.

Originally, he wanted to show off his gentlemanly demeanor, but when he saw Hu Lai's face, he suddenly stopped thinking about it.

Hu Lai didn't care about Gribusch's sudden change of attitude. He carefully held the unsigned side of the football, hummed and turned away.

Soren Gribusch returned to his locker room. Second captain Schlitt came up to him, covered his mouth and whispered: "Are you planning to brush up Hu's favorability so that he will consider joining our team in the future?" ?”

Gribusch turned to look at him and nodded: "I also got inspiration from those applauding fans. If he really considers leaving the Pirates in the future, then what happened here tonight may make him When choosing a team, we are more emotionally inclined to us..."

"I guess...but who knows when he'll want to leave the pirates."

"No matter what time it is, it never hurts to sell a favor now."

Schlitt gave a thumbs up to his captain. He really admired this captain who was always thinking about poaching people for the Blue and White Munich.

"I'm happy that I was able to break the record with a hat-trick. After Becker's goal, the only thing we could do was give it a try... We put in all our efforts and finally got a happy result... At this moment , there are so many people I want to thank, please allow me not to go into details here, this is not an award ceremony after all... But the only person I want to thank in particular is our head coach Ettore Pa Mr. Rorty, he gave me the greatest tolerance and the highest trust. He is a respected head coach. Our whole team likes him very much. Leading the team to the Champions League final is the best reflection of his work results. Next, our team will work hard to win the Champions League. Under the leadership of Mr. Parotti, we have this confidence... He is our head coach and the 'captain' of this team."

After watching the German subtitles of Hulay's interview, Michel Stader said to Hantcek:

"He is deliberately speaking for Parotti."

Hantcheck shrugged: "He is a player introduced by Parotti. If he doesn't speak for Parotti, why should he speak for me?"

"Bjorn, I feel that this time you have almost lost all your goodwill in the hearts of Pirates fans. It was originally to win, but now we are eliminated..."

At the post-match press conference, a reporter asked Hantcek what he thought about Parotti leading the team to accomplish something he had never done before when coaching the Pirates - reaching the Champions League final.

Hantcek said with his usual unruly attitude: "I congratulate Parotti and his team, but I must also say that the final is just the beginning, not the end. It is very dangerous to think of celebrating when you reach the final. . If we lose in the final, it’s no different from losing in the semi-finals..."

"Actually, you don't need to say that, you just need to congratulate your old club. The game is over, there is no need to fight any more psychological warfare. I can even imagine how the Spanish media will scold you tomorrow, saying that you cursed your old club. Lost the final..."

Stade advised his old partner.

Hantcheck suddenly asked: "Michelle, do you know why I didn't renew my contract with the Pirates?"

Stade didn't understand why Hantcek suddenly mentioned this matter, but he really wanted to know, because Hantcek didn't tell anyone the reason why he didn't renew his contract, not even his partner.

So he asked: "Why?"

"The season we lost to the Turin Bulls, we were empty-handed domestically. In the following season, we only won one Copa del Rey. After reviewing it, I feel that although this team is more effective than before, they I'm afraid it's difficult to win the Champions League. It's not that I don't have confidence in myself, I just don't have confidence in this team..."

Hantcheck said.

"If I continue to stay with the Pirates, the team will not win the championship because of my stay, and I will also lose the opportunity to become a top head coach in the world. I think it is a lose-lose. So I decided not to renew my contract with the club, regardless of them What conditions were offered? You see, I won the Triple Crown in my first season with the Blue and White Munich, and it turned out that I was right not to renew my contract with Madrid Pirates.”

Michel Stade asked: "So you think Pirates won't win the Champions League?"

Hantcek shook his head:

"No. What I want to say is... now I think they can win."

After saying that, he smiled at Stade. (End of chapter)
