Tang Jue was invited by UEFA to attend the group draw ceremony because before the draw ceremony, the Champions League award ceremony last season will be held. As the best scorer and best player last season, he will accept the trophy under the flash and under the eyes of billions of people.

At 7 o'clock on the 29th, Bardano and Tang Jue walked into the conference hall under the flashing lights, walking on the red carpet. There were already many people in the huge conference hall, and many people stretched out their hands to Tang Jue. Tang Jue smiled and shook hands with them one by one. A gray-haired and familiar figure appeared in Tang Jue's vision. The man was smiling and opened his arms, waiting for him.

Tang Jue walked a few steps quickly, and a bear hugged him hard.

"Coach, I miss you very much!" Tang Jue said in his ear, his eyes a little wet. Ancelotti reminded him of the days in Milan, which was a time that made people miss. They worked together to dominate Europe for two consecutive years.

Ancelotti patted Tang Jue on the shoulder and said, "I miss you very much, too!"

The first round of Serie A this season has ended. Milan lost to Genoa 0-1 away, and the unbeaten record has come to an abrupt end and is frozen in 59 games. The passion of Milan players seems to have been used up last season, and they are not very motivated in the game against Genoa.

Ancelotti misses Tang Jue, who is full of fighting spirit on the court and can influence his teammates through his own positive effects. In his opinion, if Tang Jue is still in Milan, the record of unbeaten will continue to expand. Some people only know how precious he is after losing him. Ancelotti knows how precious he is before he loses Tang Jue.

After embracing Ancelotti, he left, leaving the space to his former master and apprentice.

"Are you doing well at Real Madrid?" Ancelotti asked.

Tang Jue thought for a while and said, "It's okay. But the atmosphere in the locker room is different from that in Milan."

Ancelotti smiled and said, "Mr. Calderon has cleared the obstacles for you, otherwise your life will be more difficult. As for the locker room, the history and traditions of each team are different, and the culture of the locker room is also different, and you will gradually adapt to it."

The two started chatting, and Tang Jue asked about Ronnie and others' recent situation. Ancelotti shook his head and said that Ronnie has become lazy now, as if he has completely lost his fighting spirit, and Kaka is affected by injury. His recent situation is not good. The new players have not yet fully integrated. In short, Milan is in a bad condition now.

...

At 7:45 minutes, the ceremony officially began. Platini first announced the top scorer of last season: "Last season, the Champions League set a new record. The first team to defend successfully after its own reform appeared; the Champions League single-season goal record, which had been covered by 43 years, was finally broken, etc."

"Twenty-one goals. Someone raised the record of fourteen goals at once. He was Don from France. He set this new record in AC Milan!"

There was applause from the audience. Magath remembered the crazy seven-to-seven at the Allianz Stadium, and the Sir Joseph remembered the two-to-three at the Old Trafford Stadium. Benitez remembered the volley that shocked the world in the final... The coaches of these teams who once played with Milan remembered the game last season, and the scene where Tang Jue broke through their goal.

"Next, please invite Tang to come on stage to receive the Champions League Top Scorer Trophy!"

Tang Jue walked onto the stage with applause and took the trophy from Platini. Platini said in his ear: "I hope I can award this trophy to you again next year."

Tang Jue said with a smile: "This is not difficult!"

His words were still so confident, Platini shook his head and patted his shoulder with a smile.

After Tang Jue stepped down from the stage amid applause, Platini said to the microphone: "After reviewed by the UEFA Expert Committee, the honor of the best player in the Champions League last season will be awarded to Tang!"

Tang Jue had to hand over the trophy of the best scorer to Bardano beside him and come on stage to receive the award again. Platini then awarded the best coach of the Champions League last season to Ancelotti and the best team to AC Milan. Milan became the winner of the award ceremony and won several most important awards.

Bardano held the trophy of the best scorer and said in Tang Jue's ear: "I hope we will appear here again at this time next year."

This sentence contains a lot of information. Tang Jue nodded and said, "Mr. Platini told me just now that he hopes to continue to award the best scorer's trophy next year. I told him that the trophy must be mine and others can't get it."

"I hope I can come on stage to receive the award next year," Bardano said.

As the general manager of the club, he will receive the award on stage, of course, he will receive the trophy of the best team. The best teams in the Champions League are generally awarded to the champion team. Valdano's meaning is very clear, and he hopes that Real Madrid can win the Champions League this season.

Tang Jue said: "This is my goal!"

Bardano smiled happily and said, "You are very similar to Maradona in many places."

Bardano is an Argentinian. Some people say he is a killer hidden by Maradona and a guide for Raul. As a player, he played 142 times for Real Madrid. As the head coach of Real Madrid, he won the La Liga championship in the 1994-1995 season.

The 1986 World Cup was a World Cup for Maradona alone. Among the 14 goals of Argentina, Maradona scored 5, assisted 5, and made 10 goals by one. Beside him, there is also a tacit companion, George Bardano. In the star tactics designed by Bilardo, this tall forward is a pawn revolving around Maradona, and he is always waiting for the opportunity that the king of football may create.

On October 4, 1955, Valdano was born in Laspareas, Argentina, and began his career as a player on a local team. From 1971 to 75, he played for the Argentine Newells Old Boys, and later moved to La Liga, playing for Alaves, Zaragoza and Real Madrid.

Valdano's life at Real Madrid was brilliant. On July 16, 1984, he signed with Real Madrid and played three successful seasons here. He won the La Liga championship twice with the team. At the age of 32, he had to retire early due to hepatitis. Later, Valdano became a coach.

Valdano participated in two World Cups in person. In 1982, he was unknown in Spain, only played twice and made no achievements. In 1986, Valdano reached the peak of his career at the age of 31. He showed his greatest energy around Maradona.

In this World Cup, Valdano participated in 7 games and scored 4 goals, of which 2 were from Maradona's assists. In addition, in the match with Italy, the goal Maradona scored was passed by Valdano, and the cooperation between the two was quite tacit.

On June 29, 1986, Bardano scored the most important goal in his career. In the 55th minute of the World Cup final, Argentina received a pass from his teammate, and shot from the left to score, scoring the second goal of Argentina. Being able to score in the World Cup final is the dream of every forward. Argentina defeated West Germany 3-2 to win the World Cup, and Bardano won the most important honor before retiring.

In the summer of 1991, Tenerife, who was in the middle of the league, hired Bardano as the team's coach and began his coaching career. In 1993, he became Real Madrid's coach. In the 94-95 season, Raul of the second team was recruited to the first team and allowed him to participate in the league with many big-name stars. Since then, Raul began his legend at Real Madrid.

It was this season that Bardano led the team to the La Liga championship and reached the peak of his coaching career.

In September 2000, Perez, who defeated Sands in the club's general election, talked with Bardano for four hours in a bar near Madrid, and then decided to hire him as the general manager of Real Madrid.

Perez knew that he didn't know about football, so he gave Valdano great power. Not only did he take charge of the football teams and basketball teams under Real Madrid Club, but he also controlled the life and death power of players and coaches. Perez hoped to use Valdano's reputation in Real Madrid and his understanding of players to play a coordinator role in the club's leadership.

Valdano witnessed the glory of Real Madrid's ninth Champions League in history in the 2001-02 season. At this moment, he hopes that Real Madrid will be glorious again and successfully stand at the top of Europe, and for this, he brought out Maradona to inspire Tang Jue.

Tang Jue smiled and said, "He is my target!"

...

After the award ceremony, the draw ceremony for the Champions League this season began. The draw ceremony was held under the auspices of Platini and the results were soon revealed. Real Madrid was divided into Group C as a seed team, with opponents in the same team including Greece Olympiacos, Germany's Werder Bremen, and Italy's Lazio.

Looking at each group, there is no death group, and the opponents of the major giants are not very strong, so it is not a big problem to qualify from the group. Real Madrid's first group match was at 7:45 pm on September 18, and they played at home against Werder Bremen.

After the lottery ceremony, Tang Jue and Bardano flew to Madrid overnight. It was already four o'clock in the morning when they returned home. When they opened the door, the lights in the bedroom were on, and Tang Jue felt warmth in his heart. He placed two trophys casually on the floor and walked into the bedroom with slight hands. Alice was already asleep.

Tang Jue sat beside the bed, looking at Alice sleeping soundly, as if she had seen a goddess. Her eyebrows were picturesque, her long eyelashes, fair skin, and thin lips were pursed into a line...

Tang Jue did not kiss her lips as usual. He gently turned off the light, got into the quilt, and gently hugged Alice.

"You're back!" Alice was awake.

"Yeah, go to bed quickly." Tang Jue said softly.

Alice rested her head in Tang Jue's arms and slowly fell asleep again. Tang Jue couldn't fall asleep for a long time. The man in his arms turned on the light every night and waited for him to come back. The light showed him the way home and told him that someone in his family was waiting for him.

This is the taste of home, warm as water, nourishes people's hearts, and is a quiet harbor. When he is hungry, there are delicious foods, and when he is tired, he has a pair of hands to massage him and soothe his body. When he is fighting against a powerful enemy, someone stands firmly behind him, and even solves some problems with his own hands.
