78 The value of Yang Cheng
78 Yang Cheng’s Value
After gaining the lead again, Yang Cheng looked at the time, and it was 82 minutes, but he still had two substitutions.
So after Robson replaced Giovanni with Pizzi, Yang Cheng replaced Lucio with veteran Bremer, who was already exhausted but still fought for his life.
As Bremer slowly walked off the court, Yang Cheng took the initiative to greet him, and hugged the loyal veteran of the team tightly amid the cheers and applause of the fans in the stands.
"Boss, we can do it!" Bremer couldn't tell whether he was gasping or sobbing. He was already sweating on his face anyway.
When the Kaiserslautern fans in the stands saw this scene, they immediately gave them more warm applause and cheers to these two men most loved by the team fans. One of them is the legend of the team, and the other is the young head coach who is enough to be ranked as the club's legend with just a European winner.
"Luckily, he didn't wear Armani today!" When he saw Bremer, who was soaked in sweat, hugged Yang Cheng, Sienna, who was sitting in the stands, felt a urge to collapse.
She really didn't know if the sweat of these men would affect the Armani suit, but she promised that if Yang Cheng wore an Armani suit to direct the game, his suit would definitely turn into a towel for the players to wipe sweat.
Armani = towel? Sienna can't count this formula!
Heidi Krum, who was standing by, giggled. She also knew that Sienna was deliberately making fun of it. As for Yang Cheng, watching him direct the game calmly on the sidelines, watching the team he led, defeating the powerful Barcelona with such an exciting tenacity and bloody nature, the shock was really enough to make people excited.
"Maybe, he was born here!" Heidi murmured to herself.
"Of course, you haven't seen him be so loved by players and fans, but he's fine. The other coaches, look at Barcelona, are all white-haired, but he's only 25 years old and has a bright future!" Sienna obviously felt that Yang Cheng liked him, and the more she looked at him, the more she felt that this guy was capable!
Women are often easily impressed by men who are more capable than them!
Nat, sitting in the row on Heidi and Sienna, actually didn't care much about the game, because she heard the two women sitting in front of her discussing her Uncle Cheng, who was guessing the identities of these two women and their relationship with Uncle Cheng.
When Yang Cheng used his last substitution to replace Peron with Riddle, allowing Bai Wizard to accept the cheers of all the fans, the game had completely lost its suspense, because this substitution in the stoppage time period was almost enough to consume more than half of the stoppage time.
Although Barcelona had thought of counterattacking and Robson was unwilling to accept the loss, they could only accept this reality sadly with the referee's whistle.
At the moment the whistle sounded at the end of the game, the players on the bench of Kaiserslautern and the staff on the coaching bench rushed into the stadium. They all ran desperately, roared, celebrated, and vented!
After a difficult season and a arduous game, they finally won the European Cup that countless professional players dream of, and they also won the trophy after defeating the extremely powerful Barcelona.
That glory, that unforgettable experience, is enough for the players to talk about it countless years later.
Yang Cheng stood on the sidelines with a smile. He did not participate in the celebration, but he knew that after experiencing this game, his coaching level and psychological quality have been greatly improved.
To put it in a slightly exaggerated sentence, since you can defeat this Barcelona team today, what team can scare him?
Of course, there is no eternal victory for the general on the football field, and Yang Cheng is very clear about the flaws of his team.
The 3-back system is quite advantageous to deal with the current double striker team, but the defense on the wing is very troublesome because the wing is too spacious. Although Kaiserslautern's midfield and front court pressing tactics can greatly slow down the opponent's offense, once they encounter a top team like Barcelona, Kaiserslautern will suffer a lot.
442 is one of the changes that Yang Cheng has always been planning. After all, no team can defeat the world with a set of tactics, but it is okay to say that the midfielder of the 4-guard system is, but Bremer, the left back, has long been old, and he is no longer suitable to serve as the left back. Apart from him, there is no other player in the team suitable to play in this position.
In addition to the left back, there is also a lack of a assaulter on the left. Both Wagner and Greener can only be considered as just-pretty. Denilson alone cannot do it. As for the right, the performance of the two young players, Fritz and Desler, is satisfactory. I believe that after the tempering of this season, their performance will become more and more satisfactory next season.
On the forward line, Pavel Kuka should be leaving, but Yang Cheng is still insisting, it's just that he wants to sell a better price. With Marshall, Fanny and Klose, there is no doubt about Kaiserslautern's forward strength.
The reason why Yang Cheng has this confidence is because of the super coach assistance system in his mind. As long as he is willing, he will throw a few growth acceleration reels on Fanny and Klose, and they will immediately develop in a leap.
Thinking of this, Yang Cheng couldn't help but feel confident about the next season. After he was promoted to the Bundesliga, he would not just be able to relegate, he hoped to win more.
But just as he was stunned and thinking, the players celebrating in the distance suddenly sneaked over secretly, not knowing who was the first one, and then they rushed to carry Yang Cheng one by one and threw it high into the air.
While Kaiserslautern was celebrating his team's victory in the European Cup, Barcelona left the stadium in a little depressed state and returned to the locker room.
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, the Dekuyip Stadium completely became a stage for winners to celebrate. As the losers, they could only return to the locker room and slowly lick the wounds on their bodies while waiting for the upcoming and embarrassing award ceremony.
I believe that even at this moment, Barcelona will not be willing to accept this fact!
As the winner, Yang Cheng finally broke free from the celebrating player group, but he immediately fell into the siege of reporters.
"As a 25-year-old but leading a professional team to the Winners Cup in Europe, how do you feel at this moment?" Grannak is still the first person to interview Yang Cheng.
This German reporter has been exploring Yang Cheng because he saw too many incredible things from Yang Cheng, such as his 13-game winning streak in Chemnitz, and then he took over Kaiserslautern.
When Yang Chengchuchu was in charge of the Red Devils, the whole world was wondering how long he could last, but no one expected that a year later, he used an outstanding and incredible report card to convince the whole world that he had successfully recorded himself in the history of Kaiserslautern.
"I'm very excited, but also very rational. At least a score of 2:1 cannot prove that our strength is enough to compete with Barcelona!" Yang Cheng said bluntly.
Grann Nak smiled slightly, "But everyone began to praise the Kaiserslautern you trained, especially your coaching philosophy. It seems that the players have performed well, and can lead a team that has just experienced a nightmare of relegation, and has also had a major earthquake, losing a large number of main stars. In just one year, they have shown amazing strength. Many people want to know if you have any secrets?"
"There is no secret, you know!" Yang Cheng pointed at Gran Nak and smiled.
The latter immediately laughed, which showed how close the two were.
"I have always paid attention to one thing to my leadership, that is, unity. I always believe that a team is an inseparable whole. All players must serve the whole, even if the big-name stars are like this. And we will bring this sense of overallness to the game and defeat our opponents in this way!"
Gran Nak nodded while listening, "What do you think about your defeated Barcelona in this game?"
"A great team, Bobby Robson is a great head coach, and Barcelona has a group of great stars!"
"Where is Ronaldo?"
"A phenomenal player, he is almost invincible!"
Grannak immediately laughed, "Have you ever thought about who to celebrate with after winning his first European trophy?"
Yang Cheng was stunned and pondered for a while, "I suddenly want to go home now!"
Grannak was stunned, "Go home?"
"Yes, I haven't been home for many years. Since I came to Germany to study, I have been studying abroad for four years, and my busy two seasons recently, I haven't been home for six years. I want to go back and have a look!"
"If you ask me who I want to share my trophy with the most, then I can answer you, that is my parents, they are my only relatives, but unfortunately, I..." Yang Cheng said, and suddenly felt a soreness in his nose.
Since he came here, he has been a little worried and dared not go home. Until around the Spring Festival, he thought about going back, but he was taken to be a technical consultant by the German Football Association. His salary is quite high, but he missed the time to go home.
At this moment, he suddenly wanted someone to share this glory and joy with him.
"I know, they will never see the live broadcast again. Although they will also broadcast the game in my motherland, my parents are a pair of farmers living in poor rural areas. They don't even like football and never watch football games, but I still want to tell them a word!"
"Dad, mom, I succeeded!" Yang Cheng said this in Chinese, and he couldn't help but cry!
In his previous life, he was extremely eager to go abroad and become a professional coach, but his parents did not support him because they were honest and never thought football could become a career, and they didn't think that Yang Cheng could become an excellent head coach. They just hoped honestly that Yang Cheng graduated from university and found a stable job, got married and had children.
But to this day, Yang Cheng really has a lot of things and many things he wants to say to them.
His academic performance in college was not very good. His parents who had been working hard to earn money to support him in school thought that he had learned bad things and became a bad boy in his parents' eyes. But today, he hoped to use his success to prove to his parents that his choice was right!
After Gran Nak, another group of reporters surrounded Yang Cheng, who rushed to raise questions one by one.
"Mr. Yang Cheng, I heard that Kaiserslautern is interested in carrying out a certain degree of cleaning up the team this season. Is it true?"
Yang Cheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled, "No, this is not true!"
"But I heard that many veterans including Bremer, Rutz, Kadletz and others have been included in the cleaning list, Pavel Kuka is about to leave the team, and the club even said that it is not ruled out that other teams will listen to the offer of Olaf Marshall. Don't you know?"
"I'll reiterate it, this is not the case!" Yang Cheng's expression was very serious.
As if seeing Yang Cheng's tone change, the reporters at the scene immediately changed the topic.
"Kaisslautern has won the German Super Cup and the European Cup this season, and the Bundesliga championship is also expected. Do you have confidence in the German Cup final?"
"Of course, I said earlier that we will not give up any game!"
"If you can advance to the Bundesliga with a four-win championship, does that mean that you will have higher expectations for the Bundesliga next season?"
"Sorry, I'm not easy to reveal this aspect. Besides, the league has not ended yet and the German Cup final has not been played. No one can tell. I can only say that my players and I will work hard to play every game!"
"What about you? Have you ever thought about leaving Kaiserslautern?"
There are currently rumors from the outside world that clubs including Schalke 04 and Hamburg are interested in inviting Yang Cheng to coach, and every scandal is also rumored. In addition, there are certain loopholes in the contract between Yang Cheng and Kaiserslautern, and the contract renewal with the club has been delayed, so rumors are flying everywhere in the outside world.
"No! I have a good start in Kaiserslautern, and I hope to continue here, but who knows what's going on?" Yang Cheng smiled ambiguously.
The board of directors' constraints on him and their determination to go against Yang Cheng's wishes and clean up many high-paying players in the team were unacceptable to Yang Cheng, but he is just a head coach and has limited strength, so the only thing he can do at the moment is to use the contract and gain some power from the board of directors as much as possible.
Although Yang Cheng is only 25 years old, he has won the two major cup championships of the German Super Cup and the European Winners Cup. He is determined to win the German Second League championship, and the German Cup final is also full of chances of winning. It is not an out of reach to complete the four-champion championship.
If even the four-time champions cannot gain more power from the Kaiserslautern board of directors, then Yang Cheng will really reconsider his future in the club.
After the celebration, a brief award ceremony was held on site.
UEFA President Johnson made a special trip to the scene to present the awards, and the first to award the best scorer, which was naturally the well-deserved Ronaldo. After the Brazilian striker came to Europe, his condition was like a monster.
The best player was awarded to Kesslautern's Peron. The White Wizard is the core of the current organization of Kessslautern. His role in both offense and defense is very obvious. In this decisive battle, his performance was also decisive, especially the long pass to Denilson in the end.
After awarding these individual awards, the runner-up medal was awarded to Barcelona, but Barcelona looked a little boring, because they were originally for the championship trophy and medals, but they only won the runner-up in the end. The players' depression can be imagined.
The final award was the highlight, Kaiserslautern's champion.
Yang Cheng walked in front of the team, and the players followed him one after another.
When he came to Johnson and was about to take the medal, the UEFA president suddenly hugged Yang Cheng tightly and asked the reporters on the scene to take photos.
"Football requires more and more young people like you. Although you are only 25 years old, you are talented and have a bright future. We are all optimistic about you and do it well!" Johnson patted Yang Cheng's shoulder with appreciation and encouraged.
Along with Johnson, there were the German Football Association chairman, Beckenbauer, and Kesslautern's chairman Frederick. If it weren't for Kesslautern's finals, he wouldn't have been qualified to be on an equal footing with these big guys, but now, he has been praised by all walks of life for Yang Cheng's mentorship.
When he saw that Johnson and others praised Yang Cheng more than anything, he made up his mind and could not let Yang Cheng go no matter what.
This is not only considered from the field of competition, but also from the field of business.
Although the advertisement Yang Cheng had filmed with Heidi Krum, it was only broadcast on TV stations around Kaiserslautern, the effect was ideal. Many sponsors rushed to see Yang Cheng's cool and calm temperament, coupled with his handsome appearance and his talented stadium performance, all of which made his commercial value rise.
There is no suspense about Kaiserslautern returning to the Bundesliga this season. There are many sponsors from the outside world who have actively contacted the club, including top sports equipment providers such as Adidas and Nike. However, they all have no exception to require that Yang Cheng, the young and handsome head coach, must also be included in the sponsorship plan.
To be able to lead the team to the top of Europe at the age of 25, everyone is optimistic about Yang Cheng's future, and everyone is eager to determine a cooperative relationship with the head coach as soon as possible.
Of course, since the current head coach is not as good as the star, his praise for Yang Cheng is limited, but he will definitely affect Kaiserslautern's commercial promotion plan for the next season.
Chapter completed!
