There is a dream called football

Chapter 249 Champion Parade
Liverpool Airport, fans have been waiting here for a long time. Originally, the Liverpool City Government was planning to cancel the welcome event at the airport. After all, it was indeed unsafe. There were so many people crowded at the airport. However, considering that Liverpool hadn’t won the Champions League for a long time, everyone’s joy was understandable, so the city government stepped up security work.

On the plane, the players could already see Liverpool Airport. In order to pay tribute, the chartered plane circled the city several times.

Barosh watched from the window, "Look, the fans have all gone out to greet us. You can see that there is a large red area on the square, and you can even see it from the plane."

"Today is a working day. Could it be that the city government has given it a holiday?"

"It probably came out secretly. As you know, the trade unions in the UK are very powerful, and the boss doesn't dare to do anything to them."

"Hahaha."

After circling three times, the plane landed smoothly, and the players had to wait because they had to pass through a special passage.

*****
"Everyone, be quiet." A man in police uniform shouted with a loudspeaker.

The place quieted down.

"Two lines are drawn in the center of the airport. Players will walk from the middle later. You must ensure that you do not cross the cordon, otherwise the airport staff will remind everyone. I am also a Liverpool fan. I am also very happy that the team won the championship, but this does not mean that anyone can disturb the order."

The police officers are under a lot of pressure, after all, the fans are crazy, and sometimes they don't know what's going to happen.

Players come out one by one in order.

Baros and Dudek came out.

"Our hero, sign me."

"Milan, I love you."

"Dudek, thank you for making so many saves."

The two were also very happy, and waved to everyone, just like soldiers returning triumphantly from an ancient battlefield.

Signing was out of the question though, and the players had been warned in advance not to make any contact, otherwise it could have been even more crazed and chaotic.

"You are all great, I love you." Barosh blew kisses to everyone.

The players passed one by one, and the atmosphere on the scene became more and more enthusiastic, until the last two were Gerrard and Li Qiao.

The two held up the Champions League trophy.

"It's the captain."

"It's Li Qiao."

"That's the Champions League trophy."

Gerrard and Li Qiao showed the trophy to everyone. This is Liverpool's moment. This is the team's return to the Champions League Holy Grail.

The cheers reached their peak, and finally Benitez needed to stay for an interview.

First of all, he expressed his gratitude to the fans and the city.

"I knew from a young age that Liverpool was a great team and I'm very happy that I'm here to manage. Without the support of the fans, I don't think we would have been able to make it to the final. It was the fans who made us never give up."

The reporter also asked some questions about the final. Benitez said that the final itself was great, but there was no inside news.

"Actually, what you see is the real thing. We just have to fight. I don't know any magic."

Finally, Benitez said that tomorrow the team will hold a grand championship parade to give back to these lovely fans.

*****
The parade is from the club base to Anfield, choose a more reasonable route to parade, and the players take a double-decker bus.

This is a repertoire in European football. Almost every time a team wins a major championship, they will make a tour. This is also a very good way to interact with fans.

The car was okay at the beginning, and it could move forward at a constant speed, but after a while, it could only be at a walking speed, because there were so many people.

Li Qiao waved at the fans from the front of the car.

"Hello, I love you."

"Li Qiao, I love you."

It was also shouted, Gerald I love you.

The car kept moving forward, and suddenly a small fan rushed out. Everyone panicked and waved their hands. Fortunately, the speed of the car was very slow, and the driver could stop it with one brake.

A fan, about three or four years old, stood in front of the car. It was a dangerous scene, but it also made everyone amused.

Li Qiao immediately ran out of the car, rushed to the little fan, and picked him up.

"where is your family?"

"My dad brought me here, but there are too many people, and I don't know."

At this time, an uncle with a beard rushed over, "Thank you, this is my son."

But the child hugged Li Qiao's neck tightly and refused to let go.

"Come here, Matthew."

"Do not."

The bearded uncle didn't know what to do anymore, he couldn't hit the child in front of so many people.

"Come on, let's go home."

"Do not."

Li Qiao chuckled, "Then you can go on a cruise with me, and I can take you home later?"

"Okay!" Matthew laughed.

"That's too troublesome." The bearded man said.

"It's okay, you are all Liverpool fans."

The bearded man was wearing Gerrard's jersey. He was a little embarrassed, so he lied: "Actually, I also have your jersey."

"haha, okay."

Walking back with Matthew in his arms, the little boy whispered in Li Qiao's ear: "My dad is lying, in fact, he doesn't have your jersey at all, it's all Stephen's."

"Haha, this kid." Li Qiao thought to himself.

Barosche teased little Matthew when he saw him.

"You are so cute, do you know who I am?"

"do not know."

"why?"

"Because you can't score a few goals in a season."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Everyone coaxed a laugh, and Barosh was a little embarrassed, so he could only laugh a few times.

The bus continued to move forward, and it was the most crowded when it was approaching Anfield. The fans wore Liverpool fans, held scarves, and sang "You Will Never Walk Alone" in unison. At this moment, the players were also moved.

That kind of pride of being a Liverpool person was born spontaneously. When Gerrard came to Liverpool on the first day, he went to see the Champions League trophy in the team showroom. It was so beautiful, but it was impossible to touch it, and he was not qualified to touch it. It was won by his predecessors desperately.

But now Gerrard can proudly lift the Champions League trophy as a Liverpool man.

The players raised their trophies one by one and interacted with the fans. In the end, everyone suggested that Matthew Jr. should also raise it. This is a legacy. Who knows that this will not be the next Gerrard after more than ten years?
"Matthew, do you want to play football in the future?"

"Of course I do."

"Come."

Li Qiao and Gerrard helped Matthew lift the big ear cup.

"Wow, I feel like I'm the champion."

"Remember, Matthew, the inheritance of Liverpool will be in the hands of your generation in the future, and you must make the team proud."

Matthew actually didn't understand that much, he just nodded, knowing that he should agree at this time: "I will, see mine later."

When the bus enters Anfield, the players will interact with the fans, and there will be a fireworks show here at night. Today's Liverpool is a city that never sleeps.
