Lord of Greenery

Chapter 108 Perfect curtain call?

With one goal behind, the Paris Saint-Germain players did not panic.

As a team that has played in Ligue [-] for many years, almost all the players in the Paris team have more than five years of experience in the top league.

Compared with them, Cannes players can only be described as immature.

Cannes, who scored a goal and wanted to take advantage of the victory, slowly led to the team's defensive instability due to too many counterattacks.

On the other side of Paris, the rhythm has been readjusted, and the rhythm of the game is firmly in control.

"Return to defense, return to defense!"

"Put iron barrels in formation! Don't think about fighting back!"

Off the field, Dusuye yelled spineless words.

I don't blame him either, because the time for the intermission is approaching. If you survive this period of haste and keep the lead until the second half, then the chances of winning in Cannes will be great!

However, just because the head coach can keep a clear head does not mean that the players on the field can too.

In the 44th minute, Roten broke through Cedric with the ball one-on-one.

At this minute and this second, no one knows whether Cedric's head suddenly twitched. As a full-back, he suddenly chose to go up.

Roten easily passed him with a smash, passed the ball to Pauletta, the Portuguese saw that the Cannes defense line in front of him was impeccable, and creatively stopped the ball and slammed it back. The young Amara .Diani is there!
Catron's face changed suddenly, and he quickly moved laterally and stretched his feet in an attempt to expand the defensive area.

However, Diani's shooting skills are quite good, this ball hit the bottom right corner!
Benhamal was shaken by Pauletta, and he was quite far from the lower right corner. Even if he reacted, he didn't have enough time to pounce.

The ball bounced off the goal frame and into the goal line.

"goooooooooooooooooal!!!"

"1:1! At the last moment of the first half, Paris Saint-Germain equalized the score!"

"It was Amara Diani who scored this goal, and he is also the top scorer in the Paris team this season."

"However, compared to Diani who scored this goal, I want to praise Pauleta, our captain."

"He has scored 4 goals in the past 5 games of the French League Cup!"

"Although he lacks the glory of the league championship, he has always been the most reliable captain in the cup competition!"

"Even in the league, our captain has been the top scorer in the league for the past two seasons."

"It may not be good to say this, but I still want to confess to our captain: You are too good! Paris is not worthy of you!"

Diani, who scored the goal, also quickly ran to Pauletta who assisted him.

Pauletta smiled and hugged him.

At this moment, the Parisian fans in the audience were cheering.

After the cheers, Pauletta smiled, but she had mixed feelings in her heart.

He knows, everyone knows, this is his last season as a professional.

He has been to many teams in his life, and his strength has always been widely recognized.

In the eyes of many people, like Junio ​​Jr., he is a superstar player who is not worthy of Ligue [-].

Many times, he has the possibility to go to other leagues, to chase more important championships, to enjoy more attention, to let the whole world know himself, he once had this opportunity.

However, like the Brazilian, Pauleta chose to stay behind and chose to become a legend that belongs to the team alone.

Over the years, I have no regrets in my heart.

He won the league's top scorer for many seasons, but failed to bring the team a league championship.

When playing in the national team, because his playing style is biased towards shadow forwards and his physical confrontation ability is weak, he always loses the chain in key games.

Therefore, even if he occupies the top scorer list in Portugal's history, Pauleta believes that his national team career is a failure.

Especially in the European Cup in 2004, Portugal broke into the final of the European Cup!

Figo, Deco, Rui Costa, the young Ronaldo, and him, that is the golden generation of Portugal!
The opponent in that final, Pauleta will never forget——

Greece!

This team, which is not an insult to be called third-rate in Europe, miraculously reached the final of the European Cup that year.

Under the leadership of Rehhagel, they eliminated France 1:0 in the quarter-finals;
In the semi-finals, they eliminated the Czech Golden Generation 1:0;
In the final, at home to Portugal, at the Stadium of Light in Lisbon, they lost 1-0 to Greece.

The European Cup that year was called Greek mythology, and their victory was as incredible as a myth.

That year, the young Ronaldo cried, but Rui managed not to cry.

That year was the last chance for Portugal's golden generation.

After that, maybe the Portuguese team will never have so many superstars.

In the future, it can only be handed over to Ronaldo.

At that time, many people criticized him, especially his domestic fans.

In the eyes of many Portuguese fans, he is a soft-footed shrimp with excellent cooking skills and unreliable at critical moments.

If Portugal has a more powerful center forward, with the super luxurious lineup of Figo + Deco + Rui + Ronaldo, how could it lose to a mere Greek team? !

Many times, even Pauletta himself wonders, if his physical ability is stronger, if he can play the center position, if he can be used at critical times, will everything be different?
In these years in Ligue 3, he has scored so many goals, won 2 times as the top scorer, 3 times as the best in Ligue 1, and won [-] cup championships, but he has not won a league championship for a long time.

Yes, he had the league title in La Liga, but that was lying, he didn't play much in that title.

If Deportivo at that time used him as the starting striker, could Super Deportivo have won the league championship?
Up to this minute, Pauletta still doesn't know the answer to this question.

But one thing he knew very well——

Indulging in the past will only make him confused and make him ignore the status quo.

He is still playing football and he can change everything!
The European Cup in 04 has passed, and now it is 2008.

He didn't play at the Stadium of Light, but at the Parc des Princes.

He is not wearing the Portuguese national team team, but the Paris Saint-Germain jersey.

The teammates around him are not as good as the golden generation, nor are they as talented as Ronaldo when he was young.

The only thing that is the same is that he is still working hard for the championship, fighting for the championship!
As long as he hasn't retired, the blood in his body is longing for champions, more champions!

Tightening the captain's armband on his shirt, Pauletta looked at the cheering fans and swore inwardly.

He must win this championship!

For Paris, but also for himself!
