The game on the last day of April came to a perfect conclusion. Chelsea successfully advanced to the Champions League finals with an overwhelming advantage.

Good news also came from Manchester United next door. In the first round away game, Manchester United drew 0:0 with Barcelona. At Old Trafford, with Scholes' world-beating performance in the 14th minute of the opening game, Manchester United defeated Barcelona. Defeating Barcelona 1:0 to enter the final, Ferguson once again got a ticket to the Champions League championship.

During the Champions League final and the Premier League derby, the English media wanted to bathe in champagne. They wrote tomorrow's newspaper headlines in the newspapers, and the most important thing: Who will be the champion in the Champions League final?

Judging from the historical record of both sides, Manchester United undoubtedly has a huge advantage. Without him, it's just because Manchester United has a "championship formula" in the European battlefield: if you reach the final, you will win.

In the past dozens of seasons, Manchester United has brought the championship back to Old Trafford after reaching the final, but in games where they failed to win, Manchester United often fell in the quarter-finals.

This formula was undoubtedly a booster for all Manchester United fans before this. Without Endrit, Manchester United fans would have even begun to celebrate their Champions League championship.

However, now that Chelsea has Nderit, Manchester United fans are not as confident as before. Can they win? Although Manchester United's lineup was not complete when the two teams last met in the Premier League, Manchester United lost so cleanly in that game. Even if the lineup was complete, it would probably be difficult to face Chelsea with Nderit. Continue to write the "championship formula".

Even the odds given by bookmakers clearly support Chelsea's victory. A goalkeeper who has not proven himself in the World Cup has directly affected the odds by relying on his own strength. How shocking is this?

What makes Manchester United fans even more uncomfortable is that before the start of the Champions League final, when all the players wanted to live on the training ground, Endrit went to the United States to attend the premiere of the movie "Iron Man"!

This is too arrogant! Mourinho, a tyrant, can actually let Endritt go out to attend the premiere of a movie at this time? !

Manchester United fans were angry and happy at the same time. Angry that Endritt didn’t seem to take their Manchester United seriously at all, but happy that Endritt didn’t take them Manchester United seriously at all: Endritt is so lax. When the day of the Champions League final, You will definitely stumble and fall into a big trap!

May is a completely fruitful season for Chelsea. There are only four games left for Chelsea this month, the two Premier League games on the 5th and 11th, the FA Cup final on the 16th and the Champions League match against Manchester United in Moscow on the 22nd. finals.

For Chelsea's backup goalkeeper Cudicini, May is a very happy month, because Cudicini will appear as the starting goalkeeper in the two Premier League games at the beginning of the month.

Chelsea had already won the Premier League championship. Even though Endrit was in good physical condition and could play normally, Mourinho still rested Endrit and did not include him in the game roster at all.

Endrit was also happy and relaxed, and went straight home to rest after attending the movie premiere. Because Endrit would go directly into the imaginary space to train at night, he didn't think about training in reality at all.

After Mourinho frowned and tolerated it for two days, he rushed to Endritt's house and pulled the latter out of bed. "You really didn't move at all when I told you to rest? You don't participate in training, but you always know how to warm up, right?" You..."

Mourinho cursed. After being tugged by the ears and criticized, Endrit began to check in at the club every day. Apart from no games, he did not fall behind at all in daily training.

rest? It doesn't exist, it's just that the training intensity has dropped.

"I heard that you slept at home for two days?" Barak gave Endrit a thumbs up, "Awesome!"

Endrit's face twitched, "Don't listen to the coach's nonsense! I was staying up all night I played a game, and then I was caught by the coach not long after I fell asleep."

"Playing a game?" Ballack heard the topic that he was very interested in, "What game did you play?"

"That doesn't matter anymore. ," Endrit looked up at the sky with a look of defeat, "My game console was taken away by the coach, and he said he would give it to me after the season."

Ballack couldn't help but burst out laughing. Endritt suppressed a smile under his angry eyes, reached out and patted Endritt on the shoulder, trying to comfort him, "It's okay, there aren't many games left this season."

"I still have the European Cup," um De Liter sighed, "Coach Capello said that after the Champions League final, I will return to the national team to train every day. Others can take leave at their own discretion, but I can't, because if I am not here, the training will not continue." "It's okay

," Ballack tried to comfort him again, "I also want to participate in the European Cup, and I will also go to the Olympics when the time comes."

Endrit paused, and then reached out to help him with a headache. Forehead. How should I put it? He had previously told Xiao Luo that they would go to the Beijing Olympics together and invite him to hang around. The two of them were so excited about the conversation that they didn't even realize at the time that he didn't have to go to the Olympics.

Not because he won't be selected, but because Britain won't participate in Olympic football at all. Why? Because there are four football associations in the UK: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Although these four football associations are independent members of FIFA and UEFA, they are not members of the International Olympic Committee and therefore cannot participate.

Of course, this is an official reason. In fact, if the four football associations unite to form a unified team or something, they can still get a seat as a member of the International Olympic Committee. But why not join forces? The inability to play together is just an indication of the reason. The most important thing is that if the four football associations form a unified team to participate in the Olympics, what if other countries use this as an excuse to require them to participate in other international events?

If they really do this, the distribution of benefits, the four seats on the International Football Council, etc. will all be affected. Can they tolerate this? I can't stand it any longer.

So they simply did not participate in the Olympics. The public had no objection at all. The people of England even called the FA wise.

...

On Saturday, May 16, 2008, the FA Cup final was held at Wembley Stadium, between Chelsea and Portsmouth.

In the semi-finals, Chelsea defeated Cardiff City and Portsmouth defeated West Bromwich Albion. These two victories made this year's FA Cup final champion worthy of being born between two Premier League teams. .

Last year, the FA Cup final was played between Manchester United and Chelsea, but this year, the final was played between Chelsea and Portsmouth. The excitement of the game was directly reduced by half, but the commentators on Sky Sports were already very pleased. .

"The FA Cup is a hotbed of upsets. Although this year is a bit unpopular, it is generally not bad. Chelsea's Endrit, who has missed two games and has not met the fans, also started."

"Portsmouth "It's hard for Scotland to win," the commentator sighed, talking about Portsmouth's past, "In 1939, Portsmouth, which was still struggling to avoid relegation, had a huge advantage of 4:1 in the final. Defeated the absolute favorite Wolves and became the FA Cup champion that year. "

And this year Portsmouth reached the final again. Can they create a miracle?"

"This is difficult," the commentator paused for a moment. After a while, he still mentioned a possibility, "But it is not impossible. Endrit has not played for nearly half a month, which may affect his state. If Portsmouth's players are in great form today, , maybe there is a chance to create a miracle.”

But miracles are miracles because they rarely happen. Endritt has not appeared in the media for nearly half a month. When he goes to Chelsea training, he takes coach Mourinho's car directly and is rarely photographed by the media. They thought Endritt might be slacking off, but in fact Endritt is not only There is no slacking off, but the training volume is heavier than before - sleeping feels good for a while, but waking up in a crematorium is nothing more than that.

Therefore, the situation mentioned by the commentator does not exist at all. Endrit is in very good condition. He stands on the Wembley Stadium with his eyes staring at the football, wishing he could jump up and slap the football away at the next moment: But Portsmouth's The players did not give Endrit a chance to perform. Throughout the first half, they failed to break through the back line. The football barely flew into the backcourt and was directly blocked by Carvalho, Ashley and others.

For Chelsea, Lampard and Drogba scored in the penalty area in the 27th and 41st minutes of the first half respectively. Chelsea entered the second half with a 2:0 advantage.

In the 20th minute after the start of the second half, the Portsmouth forward took a long-range shot from half-court. The football went straight to the upper right corner of the goal. Endritt jumped high and stretched out his arm to shoot the football directly to Carvalho.

Chelsea launched a fast break from the backcourt. Endritt did not call any code, so the attack was dominated by the team's forwards. Lampard made a direct pass from the center, and Drogba received the ball in the penalty area and scored again in one fell swoop. He scored twice and Chelsea led Portsmouth 3:0.

After conceding another goal, although the Portsmouth players were still running desperately on the court, trying to counterattack, Endritt stood in front of the goal and expected them to counterattack again, but until the end of the game, Endritt did not. Can make another save.

Chelsea defeated Portsmouth 3:0 and became the champion of the 2007-08 FA Cup!

"The game is over! This is the third championship that Chelsea has won this year!"

"The Chelsea fans at the scene have already pulled up the banner of the Triple Crown! Maybe in the near future, Chelsea fans will pull up four banners at the Luzhniki Stadium. Champion banner! "

" On May 22, at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, Chelsea will compete with Manchester United for the 2007-08 Champions League championship. This is the first British civil war in the history of the Champions League final

! No., on the eve of the final, Chelsea and Manchester United will conduct pre-match adaption training in Luzhniki. Sky Sports will broadcast the whole process for you, so stay tuned..."

All Chelsea players who won the Triple Crown did not Like the Chelsea fans celebrating wildly, they have remained calm, waiting for the day of the Champions League final to arrive - that is the stage that many players who joined Chelsea after Mourinho's arrival have been looking forward to and dreaming of.

"You said, after seeing us win the Triple Crown this year and advance to the Champions League final," Ballack turned to look at Endrit, "Does he regret it?"

Endrit reached for the water bottle in front of Ballack and unscrewed the cap. After smelling it, he was very shocked, "This is not wine!"

Barak rolled his eyes at Endrit, "I'm not talking about drunkenness..."

"Why not," Endrit straightened his back, "He Do you regret it? To be honest, now that I am here at Chelsea, who doesn’t regret leaving? Besides, Robben is at Real Madrid, ahem..."

Endrit didn’t go on. Ballack wanted to repeat it. He rolled his eyes to express his opinion of Endrit being so narcissistic, but after thinking about it carefully he couldn't help but chuckle and gave Endrit a thumbs up.

Endrit's chin was slightly raised, and his eyes were a bit brighter than the stars in the dark night.
