Chapter 67 Faith and Life

defeated Juventus and successfully won the Coppa Italia. Fiorentina has won the fifth event this season. Now, for them, there is only one last game left this season, that is, the Olympic Stadium in Rome and Manchester United's Champions Champions League match.

Although the media has repeatedly speculated, when the war is approaching, Beckham, who has won countless honors in Manchester United's No. 7 shirt, still became the focus of media attention.

On behalf of Florence, what will happen when they meet their old club Manchester United in the Champions League final? Countless people's curiosity rose in the moment before the decisive battle.

Beckham is not shy about this topic. As a professional player, Beckham knows very well that he will face his old club on the football field. Things like this will always happen: "When I hear that Manchester United finally eliminated Arsenal and will meet Fiorentina in the final, I almost Crying, I love Manchester United. I think the night of the game will be an emotional night. For five years, I have been trying my best to avoid thinking about everything about Manchester United. I don't want to forget, but Manchester United will always be my faith in my heart. That is the supreme existence.

Beckham's career began with Manchester United in the Premier League. The former England captain has also played for 10 seasons at Old Trafford and has always had a special affection for Manchester United.

Now, Beckham, who is already wearing a purple robe, will follow Florence to challenge his former boss. Looking forward to how he will face his former teammates, Beckham said that he only wants to be part of the game.

"It is too special for me to face Manchester United as a Fiorentina player. It is indeed an extraordinary opportunity for me to represent such a team with the same great experience as Manchester United to return to the Champions League final stage. And in front of Manchester United fans and coaches, it will be incredible to play against friends. Now I want to say that I don't want this game to start, but I think they will be very happy to see me. I miss Manchester United's players and fans very much. Looking back, the past time seems not far away. Far away, many people have left Old Trafford, just like me, Bart and Phil. Neville, many excellent teammates have left, but there are still many familiar faces, such as Giggs and Gary. Neville, and of course Sir Ferguson!"

Although it is a coincidence that Fiorentina and Manchester United met again in the Champions League final, the meaning of this game is completely different for Beckham.

Return to the mainstream arena, so as to give up the comfortable vacation of the American Major League, give up the high salary in the United States, and continue to fight in the high-intensity league in Europe. Beckham's purpose is very clear, that is, to persuade England coach Capello to represent the "Three Lions" in the 2010 South African World. Boundary Cup.

Meeting his old employer is a very strange reward for Beckham. Beckham said before that he hoped to play against Manchester United in the final, and the result was as he wished. The upcoming Champions League final will be the first time Beckham has challenged the Red Devils as an opponent since Beckham's transfer to Real Madrid in 2003.

"I don't expect to start this game. I just want to participate in part of the game, just like I used to play for Manchester United, Real Madrid and Los Angeles Galaxy. I am willing to give everything to Fiorentina. As a professional player, this is my life, but I I will not abandon my faith. I miss the team, players and fans. The status of Manchester United's group in my heart is very special and will never change. I will cheer for Manchester United at the moment before the start of the game, but after the game starts, I will not forget my identity as a Fiorentina player.

As Beckham said, Florence is his life, but Manchester United is his faith. In Florence, Beckham won the Serie A championship for the first time, which will make him a rare player to win the Premier League, La Liga and Serie A championships.

Beckham said: "Winning the championship is my wish, and it feels great to win a championship with Florence. I know that someone has said something completely unnecessary before. They think that the existence of Florence will make Serie A uncompetitive. I don't think Serie A has lost its charm, when However, Florence has the strongest strength, so we won the Italian league championship. Now what we have to do is to let Florence's champion lineage continue. In the Olympic final, I hope we can still laugh to the end.

Faith and life!

Obviously, faith is above all else, but Florence fans will not be jealous, because only such Beckham is perfect.

Florence's coaches and players have not criticized Beckham, and they can all understand Manchester United's position in Beckham's mind.

In an interview before the game, Prandelli said: "I can understand David's mood. He must be both confused and looking forward to it. I have also had it. That's when I returned to the Blue Italy Stadium on behalf of Juventus. When facing Atlanta, of course, that can't be compared with David's experience. About the game, Whether David will start or not is uncertain. I will arrange the starting lineup according to the competitive status of all players, but it is obvious that David is now in the leading position.

Digan also expressed his support for Beckham in an interview: "I don't want to jump into the dispute between him and Sir Ferguson. That's meaningless. There is no need to mention what happened at the beginning. I don't think there is any connection between this game and revenge. David just needs to work hard on the court. The game is fine. Like David, I am very looking forward to the game. I have met the same opponent on the same battlefield for two consecutive years. This experience is very wonderful. David must hope to play well, and so do I!"

At the same time, Beckham's former teammates also expressed their expectations for the game.

Beckham's good buddy, Gary, now the captain of Manchester United. Neville said in an interview: "We should be happy to have such a legendary star, the spokesperson of the national image, which is beyond the scope of football. But on the football field, he should be remembered by history. His resume covers Manchester United, Los Angeles Galaxy, Real Madrid and Florence. They are all the best clubs in the football circle. They have not only become part of these clubs, but also affect the whole club. He is a great player and I am very excited to be able to play with Beckham again on a court.

Giggs also said: "When we mention some great players, it is difficult to find excellent players both on and off the court. There are many good players and first-class players in the UK, but Beckham's performance on the field is a role model for young players. We used to be together for Manchester. Playing side by side, as long as he appears on the court, it can always make the team play more easily. Many teammates have benefited from this and have to admit his efforts in everything, which also makes him an important part of the team and makes him control the midfield. Beckham is different from others. I am very happy to play with him. In terms of football alone, he may be the most influential person in England, and his influence is huge.

Even Sir Ferguson, the coach of Manchester United, expressed his expectations for the game in an interview: "Beckham is a great player. He always practices on the training ground. He has benefited his talent and let himself have a brilliant football career. He has always inspired his teammates, both off the field and on the field. His words and deeds are all role models for young players. He is a natural leader and everyone will always follow him. I have been his head coach for many years. I have to say that Beckham is a very talented person. No matter where he works, he has many people follow him. He is an excellent player and also has a lot. A person of good character, he may be the most famous athlete in the world. If you talk about him, people all over the world know who he is. I don't know which other football player can be more popular than him.

The friendly signal before the start of the game is always just a kind of etiquette. When the game starts, even good friends, masters and apprentices will only see red on the field. The champion is something that no one can ever give up.

As Beckham said in a previous interview, Manchester United is his faith, Florence is his life, faith is supreme, but more importantly, life.

The day of the decisive battle is getting closer and closer. Manchester United has arrived in Rome on a special plane, reaching the Champions League final for the second consecutive season, and meeting the same opponent for the second time in a row. This time, Manchester United cannot afford to lose.

In world football, everyone knows what Ferguson is thinking. At his age, he has made such brilliant achievements. He should have retired long ago. In the past few seasons, there was the same news every year: Ferguson is ready to retire and is looking for a successor to the Lord.

But every season, people see the same face, a slightly red face, a loud voice with a Scottish Highland accent, and victories again and again.

Ferguson doesn't want to retire. He just wants to win the Champions League again before he retires, and now the opportunity has come again.

"The same mistake will not happen twice on Manchester United. This time we have only one goal, which is to win the cup!"

Manchester United has begun the final preparations before the war in Rome, and Fiorentina continues to stay on their hit ground and enjoy the peace before the big game.

"The old man seems to be aggressive!" Degan smiled and handed the newspaper to Beckham.

Beckham didn't answer. He has known the news for a long time. Although he has been away for five years, Beckham still habitually wants to know everything about Manchester United.

"I know, I've been used to it. When I was at Manchester United, Sir Alex Ferguson was like this. Although he is old, anyone who is familiar with him can feel that he is always full of desire for victory and the game **!"

Digan smiled: "How does it feel to meet your old club in the finals? Don't tell me what you say only to reporters. I know it's not that simple!"

Beckham pondered for a moment and kicked out the ball under his feet: "I'm in a contradictory mood, Rod! I never hide it. I am a fan of Manchester United. It has always been. Manchester United has always been the most important team in my heart. Now that I want to win the championship from their hands, I know what to do. If it's just an ordinary game, it's nothing, but this is the final. You know the meaning of the final!"

The king is defeated!

This is the meaning of the final. There will always be only one winner. The winner will always be remembered. The loser can't keep anything except a silver medal that records the shame of failure. Of course, they don't want to be remembered. The runner-up, to put it sounds good, is the loser.

"Of course I know, so I've always wanted to win, and I'm also afraid of failure, just like~~~~"

Digan didn't finish, but Beckham knew what he wanted to say was the final of the 2006 World Cup in Germany. Belgium, which reached the World Cup final for the first time, lost to Italy.

Of course, if Degan did not leave early due to injury, the result may be completely different.

That was also the only time Digan lost the final!

Beckham smiled and said, "Me too, and I hate failure, Rod, I think I should thank you!"

Degan looked at Beckham in surprise.

"Thank you for letting me have such a crazy experience at this age. The champion of Serie A, the champion of the Coppa Italia, will soon be the champion of the Champions League!"

To be honest, in world football, it is really rare for people to have such a brilliant resume as Beckham. At the level of the club, Beckham has won everything. Beckham is the well-deserved first person to win the three major European league championships.

Degan did not refuse Beckham's thanks, but asked, "David! When faith and life conflict, which one will you choose!"

Beckham didn't expect Digan to ask him this question and thought for a moment, "I think I will choose life. When my life defeats my ideal, I will pray to the ideal."

Degan was stunned, and Beckham's answer was really strange.

Beckham continued: "Rod! Is faith important to you or life?

Digan did not hesitate: "I'm sorry, David! I don't have faith. If I have to find one, my faith is the champion. There is nothing else but the champion!"
