Chapter 278: Report and Celebration

Chapter 278: Report and Celebration

The next day, almost all media around the world reported on Inter Milan's championship victory. There is no doubt that Wang Feng's quadruple and his incredible save in the end became hot topics of discussion.

Reuters reported on the match process and commented that Wang Feng not only scored all of Inter Milan's goals but also saved the opponent's shot in the penalty shootout. There are no other words to describe this performance except miraculous.

"Last night, God put on the number 10 jersey, causing Barcelona to once again taste defeat in the Champions League final!"

Winning the UEFA Champions League three times in four years also made Wang Feng the greatest superstar in Inter Milan's history. At 23 years old, how long he will continue to dominate European football is what everyone wants to know.

The Associated Press wrote that Barcelona lost to Wang Feng! Throughout the game, Barcelona's advantage was obvious, their passing and the players' delicate skills were impressive.

On the other hand, Inter Milan's main defenders' injuries made their defense unstable, and Mancini's lineup with Adriano completely ineffective. It can be said that Barcelona should have won the game.

But Wang Feng said no to reason! "He's like a superhero in American comics, saving the world single-handedly. We always say that football is a sport of eleven people, but Wang Feng often makes us forget that."

The article concluded by praising the efforts of the other Inter Milan players. It was their steadfast defense and assists in the second half that helped Wang Feng achieve this miracle.

Agence France-Presse reported, "The all-powerful Wang Feng defeated Barcelona's dream dynasty, shocking the entire European football scene."

Barcelona's advantage was obvious, and Rijkaard's lineup was also very methodical. In contrast, Mancini seemed a bit reckless. Adriano, Ribery, and Wang Feng are all excellent attackers, so the defensive lineup seemed ineffective.

"In the second half, Inter Milan's adjustments were very timely. It takes great courage to strengthen defense in the late stages of the final, but Mancini chose to trust Wang Feng, and Wang Feng did not let him down."

Xinhua News Agency also congratulated the Chinese superstar Wang Feng. The article believed that his performance made the world take notice, and his success brought great honor to China and Asia.

"We look forward to seeing China achieve a historic breakthrough in this World Cup under his leadership!"

In addition to the well-known four major news agencies, major European media outlets also reported and commented on this Champions League final. Italy's three major sports media outlets praised Inter Milan unanimously, successfully pushing the "Calciopoli" scandal off the headlines.

British media analyzed Wang Feng's miraculous performance, contributing 21 goals and 9 assists in the Champions League, undoubtedly topping the scorer's list again.

German media marveled at Wang Feng's strong physique, enduring such brutal tackles without being forced off the field. The Spanish newspaper Marca mocked Barcelona in its article, which infuriated Catalonia's media but left them with no rebuttal.

Inter Milan stayed in France for a day to celebrate before returning to Milan for the celebration ceremony. But Lu Yao couldn't wait for a day, so she came to him early in the morning.

"I was almost scared to death when that bastard tackled you," Lu Yao said tearfully. "Are you feeling better now? You must have been in pain at that time. You can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me."

Wang Feng smiled and said, "It's okay, it did hurt a bit during the game, but it's not painful now. It'll be better in a few days."

After the match, he went to the hospital for a detailed examination, and he didn't even attend the post-match celebration dinner. The doctor's conclusion was that there was no major injury, and he would fully recover in one to two weeks, although it wouldn't actually take that long.

The reporters waiting at the hospital gate quickly learned this news. They marveled at Wang Feng's abnormal physique and contacted their headquarters to prepare news releases. "Even such a brutal tackle didn't cause a major injury. No wonder Moggi said there was no way to make Wang Feng leave the field injured, so he could only send him off with a red card."

Of course, Marcos' behavior received widespread condemnation, and UEFA and the Spanish Football Association quickly handed out double penalties. The Mexican defender was suspended for the first fifteen league matches and the first five European matches of the next season!

When everyone returned to Milan Airport, thousands of Inter Milan fans came to greet them. They shouted the names of every hero, and Wang Feng's name naturally resounded the loudest.

At a time when Serie A was embroiled in the "Calciopoli" scandal and traditional powerhouses like Juventus and AC Milan were faltering, only Inter Milan shone like a bright sun, illuminating the hearts of all Italian fans.

The championship parade had not officially started yet, but the streets of Milan were already filled with passionate fans. According to local TV stations' statistics, the number of people celebrating Inter Milan's Champions League victory this time subtly surpassed the scale of the celebrations during the five and six consecutive champions years ago!

The current Serie A and fans need this championship too much!

On the day of the championship parade, the buses set off from early in the morning and arrived at the Meazza Stadium until evening. The hungry crowd could only wait to eat after the celebration ended.

When Zanetti and Wang Feng held the San Siro Cup belonging to Inter Milan in the center of the field, the stadium, full of spectators, erupted in thunderous cheers.

Everyone made championship remarks, and when it was Wang Feng's turn, he thanked the coach, teammates, and fans, receiving warm applause almost every moment.

Only a few sharp-eyed people noticed a problem: Wang Feng didn't promise the fans the next season's results! When he won the Champions League twice in previous years, he would confidently declare: "We will bring the trophy back again next season!"

But this year, there was none of that. Did he not want to make such bold statements? Or was there some other reason? A few people felt a slight unease in their hearts.

Of course, most people didn't realize this issue. They were immersed in the happiness of the moment, even if they might not shine as brightly in the future, but the glory of the moment was truly real.

"Wang Feng is the pillar of Inter Milan, and he is also the most popular among the fans. I really can't bear to see him leave," Inter Milan's technical director, Borm, sighed in the VIP box.

Moratti nodded with a bitter smile beside him, "I understand this truth, but unfortunately, Serie A can't keep him anymore. It's not our fault, nor is it his."

"So, what should we do next? After losing Wang Feng, should we pay more attention to the situation of the forwards in the summer transfer market?"

"There's no need to be too anxious. Adriano and Ribery are also excellent attackers, especially Ribery, who is still so young. We must start his contract renewal as soon as possible. Next, we can treat him as the core to develop."

"Although the investigation results have not been announced yet, Juventus is highly likely to be relegated. Their stars will probably leave one after another. We need to closely monitor the personnel we need."

Borm nodded, "I understand. By the way, Real Madrid said they want to announce Wang Feng's transfer as soon as possible. It seems that Florentino can't withstand the pressure from the higher-ups and wants to use Wang Feng to turn the situation around."

Moratti said, "Then let's announce it. This is inevitable. Let's prepare for the shock that follows."
