Chapter 35 The Old Lady's Steps

In the commentary box, Piero's expression was complicated.
He straightened the collar of his white shirt and began to speak.
"The game is over."
"Lady Luck did not favor the Zebra Legion. Arsenal scored an unconventional lucky goal."
"Losing by a single goal adds a touch of tragedy, but it cannot stop the Old Lady's progress."
"The suspense of advancing will be revealed in London!"
"I believe Juventus can complete the reversal!"
"The Zebra Legion's destination is the Millennium Stadium!"

His partner was very satisfied with his performance.
The audience of Sky Sports Italia especially loved the stubborn mouth of this Juventus legend.
...

Italian football is sick.
Corruption breeds.
The bad social atmosphere is eroding the top league in the Apennines.
European competitiveness is declining.
The former glory of the Little World Cup is like a spring dream; prosperity has long since faded.
The Old Lady cannot represent Italian football, but it is undeniable that in recent years, only it has stumbled forward in the Champions League, maintaining Serie A's European points.

The night wind blew against the corner flag.
Buffon and Li Kang hugged and exchanged jerseys.
The old goalkeeper's smile was a bit bitter: "I almost conceded a goal to you again, kid. I've defended four generations... and I still haven't won the Big Ears Cup."
He was full of honors, but always missed the Champions League title.

Morata stepped forward and comforted his former teammate: "It's not time to say goodbye yet. You can still play for many years. You haven't won the European Championship either."

Hearing this sentence.
Giroud was distracted: The national team? The Gallic Rooster is on the rise... full of stars, Mbappe, Pogba, Griezmann... the 2018 World Cup is something to look forward to.
He might become a Grand Slam player.
Thinking of this, the old bull was immediately excited.
Must work hard!
Must be self-disciplined!
Can't betray his wife again.
Can't hook up again.

Giroud clenched his big fist involuntarily: "We will definitely be able to set foot on the Cardiff Millennium Stadium. We must adjust our physical condition and accompany Li to the end of the Champions League journey!"

Sanchez nodded: "Then you can't be so nervous that you take off your pants during the game."

Bould ran towards Li Kang with a box of sports drinks and dry towels.

Maguire wrote and drew in a small notebook, while reviewing the game with Welbeck. The more he talked, the more sci-fi it became, making the little black egg confused.

In the distance.
Higuain comforted Dybala: "I always feel like I will win a top cup, it is impossible to lose so many finals and semi-finals."
...

The situation of losing by one goal did not dampen the confidence of Juventus fans.
The Allianz Stadium in Turin soon resounded with the Zebra Legion's team song again.
"Juve, streatlove!"
"White embraces black!"

Arsenal fans who came from afar were not to be outdone, shouting the name of the two hundred million man with all their might.
"Lee!"
"Lee!"
"Lee!"

Li Kang led the Gunners to another hard-fought victory.
The fans firmly believed that as long as there were no injuries, the red and white flags would eventually be hung all over the Millennium Stadium!
...

Post-match press conference.
Allegri, who always liked to publicly criticize players, took all the responsibility for the loss on himself.
