I AM the Football Star
Chapter 769 - 189: After Reaching the Summit, Every Step Is a Precipice (10,000-Word - )
Naji: "It’s not Koschel’s fault, but he’s definitely not as good as Captain Lu! Captain Lu’s perspective, it’s unbeatable!"
Morici: "So frustrating! It’s just a fractured arm, right? Just a broken hand, right? Is it necessary to create such a public uproar? If the people of Italy knew that Lu couldn’t participate in this European Cup, Koschel would be cursed by all of Europe! Lu Yang is so wronged! Damn it!"
The conversation was very short, and later it ended abruptly because of someone, with no more content.
But...this was already very sufficient.
Morici became the target of everyone’s criticism.
French fans started a killing spree against Morici directly!
Overnight, Morici’s private messages increased by a hundred thousand!
All of them were insults to him, and even many were insults to his family!
"Shameless! I’ve never seen such a shameless person!"
"This Morici is truly unbelievable! No wonder he’s Lu Yang’s best friend!"
"These two are scum, too despicable!"
"I really hope this Morici gets his leg broken!"
"Before, people said Paris wanted to buy Morici, and now I say, whoever buys such a trash player, I’ll hate them for life!"
"Listen, is this even human language? What’s with just a fractured arm? Just a broken hand?"
"So vicious! What kind of people are the players of San Remo?"
"Did they create the San Remo miracle by these means? I think it should be called the San Remo disgrace!"
"Disgusting San Remo, disgusting Morici, disgusting Lu Yang!"
In the blink of an eye, European media unanimously turned against Lu Yang.
Because Morici’s words were really too much.
Perhaps privately you can say this, since as Morici’s good friend, feeling angry towards Lu Yang’s situation is normal.
Just like Koschel’s friends and relatives would not forgive Lu Yang.
But once your words are recorded, then it’s really...just bad luck.
With Morici’s involvement, this matter quickly turned from evenly matched, with arguments on both sides, to one-sided.
Lu Yang, Morici, even the entire San Remo and Italian Football, all became disgraced.
This blow directly turned Italian Football upside down.
With such a reputation continuing to ferment, Italian Football would truly stink.
Fake matches with violence, not caring about players’ health, each point is a death sentence for football!
Once the news spreads, Serie A will immediately decline.
Reaching the peak, every step is a cliff!
Though "arrogance" doesn’t quite fit, it is indeed the "most realistic" evaluation for Lu Yang, San Remo, and the Italian football community!
...
UEFA office building.
Jeffery leaned back in his luxury work chair worth 150,000 Euros, holding a bottle of Romanée-Conti wine worth Twelve Thousand Yuan, and looked at the new Richard Mille Narda watch on his wrist, worth One hundred thousand euros, feeling quite content.
His annual salary is Fifty thousand euros!
"Has President Martivini arrived? The Chairmen of La Liga and Premier League have arrived; he wouldn’t try to play a big shot, would he?" Jeffery put down his wine glass, his smile richer than the wine.
"He’s already entered the office building." The secretary replied.
"Alright, then notify everyone to meet in the conference room." Jeffery got up. "By the way, has the meeting agenda been sent to everyone?"
The secretary said: "Not yet, sending right away."
Jeffery said: "Good timing. Add one item: the first discussion point of the meeting, revoking all honors UEFA has awarded to San Remo’s player Lu Yang!"
The secretary nodded while taking out a tablet to start editing the document.
Soon, everyone who was about to participate in this important UEFA meeting received the updated meeting agenda.
The meeting had an added item.
Quite a few people smiled slightly at this.
They knew who Lu Yang was.
But was Lu Yang worth these top executives from various football associations, and UEFA high management to discuss together?
Clearly, he wasn’t.
This item seemed to be about Lu Yang, but actually...was about holding the Italian Football Association accountable, thereby officially removing the title of Serie A as the world’s top league.
Otherwise, with natural development, it would take three to five years for the Premier League and La Liga to become the world’s top league in the eyes of the fans, before the Serie A title is taken away.
This is the delay of honor.
When Martivini stepped into the meeting room, many looked at him with both excitement and pity in their eyes.
Being appointed at Italian Football’s lowest point, nearly leading Italian Football out of trouble, one has to admit, everyone still recognizes Martivini’s capability.
But precisely because of this, Martivini’s downfall later would serve as a bigger warning to everyone.
Strength isn’t sometimes crucial; what’s crucial is your position.
This round...
The Premier League and La Liga slightly excelled, but they paid a huge price beforehand, deservedly winning this victory.
Yet UEFA, is the true big winner here.
They gained the most in the three-way rivalry with empty hands.
Jeffery had to admire his own wits.
All heroes in the world are but ants.
The so-called geniuses, cannot escape becoming one or two puppets under him.
"Is everyone here? Good, then I announce, this UEFA high-level meeting regarding next year’s work is officially underway, next is the first agenda item, regarding revoking all honors UEFA awarded to Lu Yang..."
Ding Dong!
The La Liga chairman’s phone rang.
Their phones aren’t turned off even during high-level meetings, they’re not regular attendees; they’re participants in the rules!
The La Liga chairman checked his phone and his expression changed.
Ding Dong!
Ding Dong!
The phones started ringing one after another.
Jeffery was stunned, this implies something major has happened in European Football.
This...
He opened his phone and indeed saw the alert.
"Missing the European Cup!"
Jeffery didn’t understand.
Wasn’t Koschel missing the European Cup already reported?
Why, the hospital diagnosed again?
Even a re-exam received such attention, this popularity is truly impressive.
It’s better this way; this is the kind of popularity football should have!
But soon, Jeffery saw more words.
His mind momentarily stalled.
"Breaking News! Italy Team Head Coach Maniero solemnly announced that Lu Yang is likely to miss this European Cup due to injury!"
"Maniero: I cannot select Lu Yang for the national team heading to the European Cup. Because we have reason to believe that Lu Yang’s left arm was already broken by Koschel in the first minute of the Europa League final!"
The news caused a sensation in World Football!
The eighth wonder of the world is born!
A medical miracle emerges!
