Chapter 1640 Champions League Champion and Top Scorer
Stella Maggioni gave his players a hard time at half-time, 15 minutes of non-stop telling everyone how important it is to be humble and take every opponent seriously. Take their opponent Liverpool in this game as an example.

The image is vivid, and the players have personal experience.

After the 15-minute intermission ended, the players of Inter Milan stepped onto the field again, and they suddenly realized that their head coach didn't even say a word about what they would do in the second half during the intermission!
They were a little at a loss-is the head coach going to give up this game?

Thinking of this, some people are a little unconvinced.Isn't it just two goals behind?Can't we get it back?
But soon they seemed to have reached what the head coach said during the intermission, they saw Chen Yingxiong.

Bring it back?
I'm afraid it will be difficult...

It's ridiculous to say this in front of this man!
Forget it, we just need to score an away goal.The main job is to prevent the ball from being lost!

As long as the game can end with a score of 1:2, it will be considered a successful away trip for Inter Milan.

Thinking of this, those unconvinced Inter Milan players no longer have unconvinced thoughts.

In front of Chen Yingxiong, they really didn't have the qualifications.

※ ※ ※

Inter wanted to keep a clean sheet in the second half, score a goal and lose 1-2.

They feel that their requirements are low enough.

But the cruel reality gave them a blow.

Or the cruel Chen Yingxiong gave them a blow to the head.

He completed his hat-trick of the game only 5 minutes into the second half!A signature header! At the age of 40, he is still the tallest jumper in the restricted area!
"Hero! Hero! Twice is enough to surprise people! I didn't expect him to complete a hat-trick!"

"It's unbelievable! Unbelievable! What is the limit of 40-year-old Chen Yingxiong? I think there is no answer to this question!"

"Hat! Hat! Hat! Hat! Hat-trick! Great hero! Great hero! I can't see any difference between the 40-year-old Chen Yingxiong and the 30-year-old..."

"God! Is he still a human? Is he still a human?! I think this game will definitely attract a lot of attention! But anyone who has watched this game may have to change Liverpool's position in their hearts. After the game, there will definitely be a big adjustment to Liverpool's winning odds!"

※ ※ ※

Inter Milan's players are about to collapse.

They didn't expect that old guy to be so powerful.

He was able to perform a hat-trick against them!

Is he really 40 years old?
Isn't he really only 20 years old?
Chen Yingxiong's monstrosity has completely exceeded the cognition of ordinary people.Facing such a monstrous opponent, Inter Milan lost all will to resist.

No. At 70 minutes, they were scored by Liverpool again. This time, it was not Chen Yingxiong who scored the goal, but Carlton Cole.

This made many onlookers and neutrals breathe a sigh of relief—if Chen Yingxiong scored the goal, they would feel that something went wrong with the world, and they could not accept this setting at all.

Completing a hat-trick is already terrifying, and another big four...do I still want to live?

Just after Carlton Cole scored, Chen Yingxiong was replaced.

He raised his hand and waved to the fans in the stands, and there was a tsunami of cheers in the stands. All the Liverpool fans stood up from their seats and saw off Chen Yingxiong with applause.

As for the Inter Milan players, they saw Chen Yingxiong being replaced and realized: This person is really 40 years old!

Because Chen Yingxiong in the past would never be replaced.He will play all the time of all Liverpool games in a season without missing a second, so he is considered to be a man of steel.

But now he was replaced early.

This shows that his physical strength is not as good as before.

He also played a Merseyside derby three days ago. This game was very intense, and the physical exertion was far higher than those of usual games.He played all the time.It wasn't that Gerrard was unwilling to let him go off the court early to rest, but the situation at the time did not allow him to do so.

At that time, Liverpool relied on Chen Yingxiong's goal to maintain the lead, but a goal lead did not make Everton admit defeat, on the contrary, it aroused their fighting spirit, so Liverpool has been struggling in the next game.Under the circumstances at the time, Chen Yingxiong had to be on the court, and he would deter Everton on the court, making Everton afraid to press the whole line.Although Chen Yingxiong is not as famous in the Champions League, he is still the most dominant player in his own one-acre three-point Premier League.

It was precisely because Chen Yingxiong was not replaced that Liverpool finally won the game.

After this intense intra-city derby, the Champions League game will follow.

Playing two heavyweight matches within three days, Chen Yingxiong's physical fitness is indeed worrying.

Gerrard replaced him early, on the one hand, to let him get the cheers of the fans, and this cheer will be dedicated to him alone.

On the other hand, it is natural to let him get enough rest time.

※ ※ ※

With Chen Yingxiong off, the game was basically over.

Inter Milan has long been unwilling to fight, and so is Liverpool.Leading by four goals in the first round, it is basically guaranteed that they will advance to the quarterfinals.

Now the team is fighting on two fronts, and it is impossible to use up all the energy on one front.Players themselves have to learn to adjust.

Gerrard also began to make frequent substitutions and quickly used up three substitutions.Try to allow as many players as possible to get rest time and opportunities to play and exercise.

The final game ended with a score of 4:0.

The game was over, and before Chen Yingxiong could stand up from the bench, he was surrounded by reporters who had been waiting for a long time.

After completing a hat-trick in this game, Chen Yingxiong's comeback in the Champions League is perfect.

It is normal for him to be the focus of media attention.

In the face of these enthusiastic reporters, Chen Yingxiong did not disappoint them, and broke the news that lived up to everyone's expectations.

"This season's Champions League top scorer, I still want to win!"

※ ※ ※

The last time Chen Yingxiong played in the Champions League for only half a season and won the top scorer in the Champions League was the 2010-2011 season eighteen seasons ago.

Chen Yingxiong was only 23 years old at that time.

He was still in Naples, suspended for eight Champions League games, and after missing all six group games, he started on the road in the quarter-finals, and then led Naples all the way to the Champions League final, where he defeated the mighty Barcelona. Naples took home the first Champions League trophy in club history.He also overwhelmed Messi with thirteen goals and won the top scorer.

That is an eternal classic in the history of the Champions League.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yingxiong plans to reproduce this classic now.

Also missed all the games in the first half of the season, and also started in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

Three goals in the first game... looks really promising.

This time, no one was as surprised as he was 18 years ago, or laughed at Chen Yingxiong for being overreaching, and he needed his then head coach Mazari to support him.

After so many years, everyone knows that Chen Yingxiong has this ability.

He said that he wanted to win the top scorer, so there is no dispute whether he can get it, everyone just needs to see how he did it.

It is true that Liverpool has not won the Champions League for six seasons, but team results are one thing, and individual results are another.

Even if Liverpool can't win the Champions League for one reason or another, Chen Yingxiong has never let the honor of being the top scorer in the Champions League fall by the side!
Even if there were two seasons, Liverpool was eliminated in the quarter-finals, and Chen Yingxiong was still the top scorer in the Champions League in those two seasons.

His scoring ability is evident.

Since he was able to establish his top scorer status with only six group games plus two quarter-finals.

Then why can't he use half a season of knockout stage games to get the top scorer?

What makes everyone more interested is not Chen Yingxiong himself, but the meaning behind this sentence.

If you want to get the top scorer, it is definitely not enough to play only one or two games in the knockout stage, and it is not safe to play four games.

If Chen Yingxiong really wants to get the top scorer, then he has to lead the team to at least the semi-finals, which does not necessarily guarantee him the top scorer.

Better for Liverpool to reach the final...

So the meaning behind Chen Yingxiong's words is Liverpool's ambition. They actually plan to break into the Champions League final again!
After entering the Champions League final, is Liverpool's goal just to help Chen Yingxiong get the top scorer?

Obviously not, their real goal is probably... the Champions League champion!
Liverpool want to win the title!

They are not reconciled to missing the championship for the seventh year!

After six years of slumber, this giant who once monopolized the Champions League and won the trophy for nine consecutive seasons, is it finally about to wake up again?
No... Maybe it's just a flashback?As Chen Yingxiong's last season before retiring, Liverpool may want to use this method to send off the greatest player in their history.

So even if Liverpool can win the Champions League this season, this is likely to be their last Champions League.After Chen Yingxiong retires, Liverpool will fall apart. In addition, Carlton Cole is actually old. The team's No. [-] and No. [-] people have left the team one after another. This team will fall into a long cycle.When they wake up again, who knows when it will be.

But no matter what happens in the future, Liverpool's strength this season will definitely give many people the illusion that the Liverpool team back then is back!

This is a great threat to them all.

Liverpool has shown its fangs, and it is absolutely impossible for other European giants to sit still.

This season's Champions League will be even better!
As soon as the media think of such a future, they immediately have a collective climax...
