After finalizing the sale of Kasper Schmeichel, Li Shiguang first contacted Luis Enrique, the president of Atlético Madrid.
This was made possible by the friendly cooperation during Torres' transfer last time.
Enrique agreed without hesitation to Li Shiguang's offer to buy the goalkeeper from his youth team.
The main reason is that Li Shiguang's initial offer was 3 million euros, which made it difficult for Enrique to think too much.
He left the rest to Allen.
Li Shiguang finally got to stay home and rest for a few days.
May 19th,
After getting up and having breakfast, Li Shiguang took Shakira to London.
At the invitation of FA CEO Brim, Li Shiguang will be attending the FA Cup final between Chelsea and Manchester United today.
This year's FA Cup returned to the new Wembley Stadium, ending its run at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium, making it a memorable match for the FA.
So on the day Leeds United won the title, Bringham extended an invitation to Li Shiguang.
Li Shiguang readily accepted the invitation from the FA bigwigs.
However, besides that, he had another reason for wanting to come to the game in person today.
That is to see if Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United will be like in my memory, losing the championship in the final moments of extra time to Drogba's last-minute goal!
····
As a traditional event in English football, the FA Cup final attracts a lot of attention, and even members of the royal family came to watch the final today.
And this year is a bit special.
Mourinho lost the league title after two years of defending it, was eliminated early in the League Cup, and was then knocked out of the Champions League by Manchester United.
Therefore, for the entire Chelsea team, today's match is not only a revenge match against Manchester United, but also their only chance to win a trophy this year!
certainly.
Ferguson didn't hold back either. With four days until the Champions League final, even with a full-strength lineup, the players still had plenty of time to rest.
In his heart, if he can't be a triple crown winner, being a double crown winner is also acceptable!
At 3 p.m., with the referee Webb's whistle, the 2006-2007 FA Cup final officially kicked off.
After the match started, both sides played very intensely, fighting for every inch of ground.
However, from Li Shiguang's perspective, the pace is actually rather slow.
Although both teams made a lot of moves on the field, they rarely managed to kick the ball within 30 meters of the opponent's goal.
As the game progressed...
Li Shiguang increasingly felt that Ferguson might be in trouble.
Since nothing seemed to have changed, the score remained 0-0 after 90 minutes, leading into extra time.
really.
The match was in the 116th minute.
Drogba and Lampard executed a brilliant one-two pass on the edge of Manchester United's penalty area, with Lampard's lobbed pass directly penetrating O'Shea and Ferdinand's defense.
Drogba burst into the penalty area and, facing the onrushing Van der Sar, volleyed the ball into the Manchester United goal before it even hit the ground!
Chelsea are leading Manchester United 1-0!
Finally, with Kalou's shot going wide, Van der Sar took the goal kick, and Webber blew the final whistle.
Mourinho won this year's FA Cup thanks to a goal from his favorite player Drogba.
Ferguson, who wore a red rose on his chest today, has lost his second championship in just one week!
····
Three days later.
Li Shiguang and Shakira reappeared in the luxury VIP box on the top floor of the Athens Olympic Stadium, accompanied by Florentino, who was unemployed at home.
This is the third year that Li Shiguang and the old man have watched the Champions League final together.
Betting 100 euros on who will win the final crown seems to have become a regular activity for Li Shiguang and Florentino.
But this year is a bit special.
Because Li Shiguang really didn't know who would win the final championship.
Liverpool was supposed to play AC Milan in today's final, but because of my appearance, Liverpool didn't even qualify for this year's Champions League, let alone the final.
As for whether Manchester United, who will appear in the final, can beat AC Milan and win the championship, Li Shiguang really has no idea.
And it's because of his fondness for Kaka.
The president unhesitatingly chose AC Milan to win.
When the bet was made, Li Shiguang glanced smugly at Florentino.
Li Shiguang knew that Florentino had always liked Kaká and had long considered him a piece of Real Madrid's collection. He had always thought that once he regained control of Real Madrid, he would bring Kaká to the Bernabéu.
But now there's no chance anymore; Kaka has already been taken by Li Shiguang.
When making a bet.
Li Shiguang's mind was filled with thoughts of what Florentino would think if he knew Kaká was about to become a Leeds United player—would he be so angry he'd vomit blood on the spot?
····
finally.
During their casual conversation, the referee for the night, Van der, blew the whistle to start the match.
Manchester United started the match in a very fast-paced manner.
Just 30 seconds into the game, Giggs crossed the ball from the left wing, heading it directly towards the far post of AC Milan's penalty area. Unfortunately, Ronaldo, who was making a run into the box, was a little too slow and missed the ball, wasting a golden opportunity.
Compared to Manchester United, AC Milan's form came much slower.
For the remainder of the game, they were on the defensive, which made Li Shiguang vaguely feel that Ferguson might finally get what he wanted today.
Nine minutes later, Manchester United came back again. Scholes seized the ball on the edge of AC Milan's penalty area after Jankulovski's poor control, and sent a through ball to Ronaldo, who cut inside and took a shot, but this dangerous shot was blocked by Dida.
AC Milan finally got their first shot on goal in the 17th minute of the match.
Kaka received a pass from Jankulovski in the middle, chested the ball down, and then gently flicked it past the onrushing Ferdinand before unleashing a long-range shot. However, Van der Sar made a diving save to deny the shot.
"AC Milan is facing a talent gap right now. Apart from Kaká, the players on the field are all old men. They're having such a hard time against Manchester United." Seeing that the two sides couldn't break the deadlock for a long time, Florentino shook his head and sighed.
“Indeed, the Calciopoli scandal has dealt a significant blow to Serie A. Mr. Perez, you might just catch a lucky break!” Li Shiguang agreed with Florentino Perez’s opinion, but his words had a different meaning.
"Haha, you little rascal!" Florentino glanced at Li Shiguang, a smile playing on his lips. "Did you send someone to spy on me?"
Seeing the Empress Dowager's expression, Li Shiguang knew he had definitely guessed correctly.
So he quickly moved closer, grinning wickedly as he asked in a low voice.
"All settled? When will you regain control?"
