The road to godhood starting from Ligue 1

Chapter 132 Their career in the national team is over
The veteran turned and waved goodbye.

The newcomers are ready to appear.

This is the law of football and the law of the natural world.

"Farewell", which was played at the opening ceremony of the European Cup, was heard again at the Donbass Stadium tonight.

This is one of Chopin's most famous pieces.

"I've never written a melody as beautiful as this before, and I'm afraid it won't be easy to come across one in the future."

This is how Chopin commented on his own piece.

tonight,

The same is true of Shevchenko's departure.

For Ukrainian football, Shevchenko is Chopin's melody, stirring the hearts of every Ukrainian fan.

He is also unique.

As he turned and waved goodbye.

Is there anyone in Ukraine who can take over his No. 7 jersey?

Shevchenko hugged each of his teammates, knowing that they had also given their all.

When Shevchenko was interviewed on the sidelines, tears still welled up in his eyes and a relieved smile on his face. "It's time to give the opportunity to the young people. I am optimistic about their future."

Shevchenko glanced at the fans in the stadium and the Ukrainian flag and said, "I will play one more game. It will be my last game for my country. Maybe it will be a friendly match. I haven't decided yet. I will talk to some people and ask them to organize such a game. I will put forward my request to the Ukrainian Football Association."

He looked toward the stands again.

I waved to the fans and looked at those who were crying.

Shevchenko wished time would go slower.
Give him a little more time.

pity.

They lost.

Lost to the powerful French team.

only,
The only people celebrating for the French team were the fans.

The locker room at this time.

heavily clouded.

Blanco said in a deep voice amidst the tense atmosphere, "Anyone who thinks the team can't function without him can go home and try. The team doesn't need anyone who creates problems."

Blanco pointed to the locker room door and said, "Anyone who doesn't want to play anymore can walk out this door and tell the media loudly how they were targeted. Tell them everything!"

Nasri walked out of the locker room without saying a word, followed by Ben Arfa who had been unable to stay any longer.

Blanco looked at the others, "Anyone else?"

No one answered.

Benzema was scared. He felt that Blanco would make things worse, which was not his intention.

Mene, Mwila and others also had the same idea.

They also do not approve of Blanco's current approach, but for some reasons, they did not make the same choice as Nasri and Ben Arfa.

Blanco took Lloris to the post-match interview and said before leaving, "Prepare well for the knockout stage."

No one in the locker room said anything.

They were all familiar people, and they exchanged glances with each other before getting ready.

When walking out of the locker room.

Giroud breathed a sigh of relief and said to Gaio, "This atmosphere makes me feel depressed."

Gaio just smiled and said, "Hasn't this always been the case with the French team over the years?"

Giroud sighed again, "Yeah, why can't we unite? We can obviously win more championships."

"So, the French team needs a change."

Giroud listened to Gaio's words, and then looked at the current situation of the French team, and quietly realized that he was already in the storm.

He and Gaio walked towards the team bus together.

When I got on the bus, I heard many fans outside the bus shouting "Gao".

He suddenly realized—

Changes to the French team were bound to occur, but Gaio's sudden emergence seemed to have accelerated the process.

His eyes turned to Gaio, who was sitting by the window.

I have mixed emotions in my heart.

This young man has far more influence than he imagined.

This,

But this is only his first professional season.

When Giroud sat down.

Gaio was resting with his eyes closed, he felt a little tired.

This was one of the few times he played the entire game at full strength.

It's a big competition for the national team, and it's a rainy game, which is even more physically demanding.

To some extent he also had to thank Nasri for not giving him too many opportunities in the first half.

otherwise,

He doesn't have the stamina to last the entire match.

But after this game, he gained a lot and officially appeared in the eyes of French fans.

National team main force.

It seems to be a natural thing.

However, you still have to improve yourself. In the world of football, everything depends on strength.

Today he could feel that once he was closely watched, his ability to create opportunities was not enough.

It will be more difficult to play especially without the support of teammates.

Next up, Italy.

The main defensive lineup from Serie A champions Juventus.

It is destined to be a difficult game.

Then he looked at his winning points. In the match against England, he played for less than ten minutes, and even though he scored the winning goal, he still didn't get any points.

He performed very well in this match against Ukraine.

Winning points: 15.

It was lower than he expected. He thought his performance would be at least 20.

It seems that as my abilities improve, winning points will become increasingly difficult to come by.

Thus.

His winning points came to 96.

Only four points left to open another winning treasure chest!!

If we can beat Italy, that's enough.

If we lose, we can only wait until the French Super Cup before the new Ligue 1 season.

The French Super Cup is a warm-up match for Ligue 1.

Every year, the French Ligue 1 champion and the French Cup champion will compete against each other, and if there is a team that wins both championships.

Then it will be a showdown with the French Ligue 1 runner-up.

This means that before the new season of Ligue 1, Bastia will compete with Montpellier for the first championship of the new season!
Gaio is still very confident about this game.

Bastia will become stronger in the new season, while Montpellier will become weaker, as their core players have been poached.

Giroud, the team's top scorer, will definitely go to Arsenal if nothing unexpected happens.

As I was thinking, the bus returned to the hotel.

Everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

When new French internationals like Gaio and Giroud all rested early in silence.

Nasri has already started to criticize Blanco.

“Replace me after 50 minutes?

Ha! This old guy has been wanting to humiliate me for a long time! Do you really think this is due to tactical adjustments?
Last year he told the media 'Nasri needs to prove himself' and now he's throwing me off the pitch like garbage - that's his 'communication skills'!"

"'We must unite' and 'the dressing room must listen to me' are all he said. When Ben Arfa asked 'why did you let Gaio start', he would only yell 'those who don't want to play, go home'! Then let's go! Let his good boys Gaio and Giroud lick his tactical board!"

"Ha! Does he think he's Zidane?
I'm fed up with his hypocritical rhetoric! Back then, he praised me as the 'future core of France,' but now he says I'm 'destroying unity' because he's afraid the media will discover the truth: the French team's cancer is his outdated 4-4-2 formation!

Finally, Nasri raised his middle finger to the camera and said uninhibitedly: "By the way, isn't he going to Tottenham to fish? I suggest Mr. Levy check his locker room recording first - it's guaranteed to be more exciting than "The Godfather"!"

Nasri even took the opportunity to criticize the news that Blanc might coach Tottenham Hotspur after leaving the French team.

Ben Arfa agreed with everything Nasri said.

"Samir is right. Blanco is a complete liar. I don't deny his talent and contribution as a player, but as a coach, he is rubbish!"

"Without us, the French team's next few years will be even darker! Still want to enter the European Cup? The World Cup?! No way!"

Post-match comments from both players.

The news of the French team’s internal strife instantly pushed the European Cup to the top of the agenda.

Fans were amazed when the Dutch team ended the European Cup hastily due to internal strife.

I just realized that the French team is more powerful.

The Dutch team was just blaming each other, but the French were almost pulling each other's collars and cursing.

The French Football Federation has not yet made any comment.

However, various celebrities have come out to publicly accuse Nasri and others of destroying the unity of the French team.

Nasri immediately retorted, "Has the French team ever been united? Were you united in 2010?"

Mentioning the French national team's internal strife scandal in 2010.

This incident has further amplified its impact.

The French team made a fool of themselves again!

Apart from his comments on the match against Ukraine at the post-match press conference, Blanco didn't say anything else.

But it's undeniable.

The entire French team has become a hot topic in the eyes of reporters.

During the training session the next day, there were reporters waiting there, and when they saw the French players, they immediately rushed over.

But no one dared to say anything at this point.

Only Evra said helplessly, "It's very uncomfortable for me to see such a scene."

This time,
Although he was not at the center of the storm, he did feel something different.

Maybe it's because I'm getting older.

Or something.

He also said in front of the camera, "I hope that such things will not happen again in the French team in the future."

The French team is at the center of the storm.

Italy's head coach Prandelli has a better chance of winning this game.

The French team is currently in a precarious situation.

As a legend in Italian football, Prandelli certainly knows that the strength of the French team is greatly reduced.

If there are problems in the locker room, it is definitely not just a problem with one or two players. There will be more players who will defect for some reason.

Of course.

He also has to take precautions. What if the French team explodes in this precarious moment?

This is not impossible.

As more and more news reports come out about internal strife within the French team, there are arguments among various players, celebrities, and fans.

The French Football Federation officially issued a notice on the third day after the game:

"After deliberation by the Disciplinary Committee, national team players Samir Nasri and Ben Arfa violated the National Team Code of Conduct during the European Cup, including publicly insulting the coaching staff, leaving the team without permission, and inciting confrontation.

The following penalties are now imposed:
国家队及各级代表队禁赛：纳斯里禁赛5年（至2017年7月1日）；本·阿尔法禁赛3年（至2015年7月1日）；

Economic penalty: full deduction of this European Cup bonus"

As soon as the news came out.

Everyone knew their national team career was over.
