Bohemian Symphony

Chapter 39 Wearing a Hat

~~~~~ Let grandma rest in peace, please, don't bother! ~~~~~

Returning from the warm Mediterranean Sea to the snowy Munich, Luceria still had a fire burning in her heart.The schedule in the second half of the season is more intense, and the opponents are getting stronger and stronger.But she was not afraid at all, and instead became more courageous as she fought.

In the end, they maintained the top spot in points until the end of the season, and they also passed all the way in the Champions League, but lost to Lyon in the final and only won the runner-up.

Lyon in France deserves to be a first-class team. They have learned a lot of experience playing against Bayern in the Bundesliga, and then broke out in the Champions League at one time, catching Bayern by surprise.And Luceria also restrained herself because she was afraid of excessive physical confrontation and injury, so she didn't perform well.In the end, they lost to Lyon 0:1, allowing them to pick up the first European Women's Champions League trophy.

Regardless of lamenting, a week later, Luceria went to the national team to report non-stop, and the World Cup was about to start.

Because it was held in their own country, they only went to Berlin for a week of training.

The level of the Women's World Cup is also different, so they don't have to play in the small stadiums that have been in disrepair. The DFB directly took out the best stadiums, so that women's football teams from all over the world can play on the best football fields play football.

Allianz is also the venue, and it is the final.

Seeing this arrangement, Luceria's blood burned even more.She can't play with Muller, but she can play with Muller on the same turf.

"I should have kept some of my grandma's ashes if I knew it earlier." Mueller said with a look of regret.

"Do you want me to sprinkle a little in Allianz?" Luceria laughed, this child really believed it.

"If possible, I certainly hope that grandma can bless you. But I also believe that you have the strength to win the championship. It's just that the world of football needs more than strength, more luck." Muller shrugged Shrugging, I have to admit that luck also plays a large part in success.

"Wait, I still have this." Luceria took out the deck of tarot cards, put it on the coffee table, and then knelt down in front of her, "Grandma, grandma, bless me with a higher chance of getting in." , preferably before scoring ten goals. Then I will leave the rest to myself to ensure that the name Irani is known to everyone!"

Muller looked at the old tarot cards, and he also knelt down like Luceria, "Grandma, grandma, hello. I'm Thomas, do you remember? Leah and I It was agreed that we will get married after she gets the golden boot. You also know that the World Cup only comes once every four years, so in order to prevent us from becoming late-married people, grandma, please control the goal so that Leah can Score a few more goals. But please rest assured, we will add the surname 'Ilani' to my surname after we get married, so that others will not recognize her because she changed her surname."

"Other people recognize the face, okay!" Luceria rubbed Mueller's head, he really thought too much.

"That's right, even if my name is Thomas Irani, others will know that I belong to Mueller." Mueller opened his mouth and laughed, "I suddenly remembered one thing. Someone asked me before. Not the grandson of Gerd Müller. My grandfather was very happy, and felt that someone finally connected him with his idol. But Müller is a common surname in Germany. How could he associate it like this? Really Stupider than me."

"Uh... huh, you're so stupid." Luceria felt that she should take over the blame herself, and would really go to ask about it. It must be that idiot Hesplan.It looks like she is beautiful, smart and powerful, but she is actually just a little princess in a tower who is so touted that she has no common sense of normal life.

"Oh, that's right, that's right, I bought all the joint tickets. So did Holger and Manu, our seats are all together." Muller took out his tickets and put them on like a treasure In front of Luceria.Last year she was the one who watched her play from the stands, and this time it was finally his turn to cheer for her.

"Manu? Neuer!" Luceria only noticed Neuer because of Lina, otherwise a goalkeeper from the mining area would have nothing to do with her.

"Yes, he will transfer to Bayern next year. I saw him two days ago. He met with Mr. Hoeness, and he should be discussing the issue of annual salary." Not only did Muller move strangely on the court, but also In the club too, he can often see some miraculous events.

"By the way, the annual salary!" Luceria suddenly remembered at this time, she was too busy this season, and forgot to ask for salary, "Go, go to the club!"

"Okay!" Mueller didn't ask Luceria what's the matter, directly picked up the car keys, and drove his little sheep to Sabina Avenue.

The doorman opened the door immediately when he saw the two of them. He was too familiar with Mueller's dilapidated sheep, even more familiar with Annie's red hair. "Good afternoon, Mr. Mueller, Miss Irani."

"Good afternoon!" Both Mueller and Luceria smiled and waved to the doorman, just like an ordinary couple.

Jumping off Muller's little sheep, Luceria ran straight to Hoeness's office.She stood at the door, combed her hair, and knocked on the door.

"Mr. Hoeness is not here." At this moment, an official passed by and kindly reminded.

"Where did he go?" Luceria also forgot this, she is a busy person, how could she sit in the office all the time.

"Went to watch the Bayern basketball team game." The man returned.

"I went to play!" Luceria quickly ran to the door and directed Muller to the basketball court.

But when they arrived there, the game was over.

"Forget it, let's talk about it after the World Cup is over." Luceria was too hot, and today they were unlucky, it was not cloudy, but sunny.

"But after the World Cup, you don't have enough conditions to make promises. You have to put forward conditions and make promises before the game to have bargaining chips." Although Muller is passive every time he raises his salary, his mind is thinking. Very clear.Hoeness is a resolute person. Although he has a sharp mouth, as long as the player can bring enough honor and benefits to Bayern, it is still easy to negotiate terms with him.

"That's right, Thomas, keep looking. Even if we flatten Munich today, we have to dig out Hoeness!" Luceria immediately got excited, and she bought two from the bakery beside him. One of the bagels was eaten by himself, and the other was stuffed into Muller's mouth.

"Well, I called Bastian, they're eating at Coco's now." Muller was smart, but his face couldn't show it.Hoeness usually takes Piggy with him when he watches basketball games. He doesn't know why, but if he finds Piggy, he can almost be found. "Let's go there quickly, maybe we can catch up."

"Let's go!" Luceria jumped into the car quickly, she put her arms around Mueller's slender waist, and held him tightly.

The two rushed to Coco's shop all the way, but they all started to take away the tables.

"Hey, Leah, Thomas, why are you here now? Is there a traffic jam?" Jianguo thought the two of them were here for dinner, and now her refrigerator was almost empty.

"No, I'm here to discuss with Mr. Hoeness about an annual salary increase." Luceria was really tired, she sat down, and her saliva naturally began to secrete, "Thomas, it's all here , let's eat something first."

"Okay, I'm a little hungry too. I can pack a little and go home, so we don't have to cook dinner." Mueller rubbed his stomach. He was already thin, but now he is really a standard chest to back.

"If it's a matter of annual salary, shouldn't you let your manager discuss it? Philip has a lot of experience in this matter. You can talk to him about your experience." Jianguo took out the tiramisu that was just made , Let the two of them lay their stomachs first, and then sell their husband by the way, "Philip studied economics before and worked in a bank, and he is very familiar with negotiating player treatment."

"Well, well, okay, I'll talk to Philip first!" Luceria picked up a spoon and stuffed a large piece of tiramisu into her mouth. Her eyes lit up immediately, and she hugged Jianguo and turned around. Several circles, "Oh my god, Coco, your craft is better than the Italians!"

"Stop, stop, Leah, I can't be crazy with you now." Jianguo rubbed his stomach, she is expecting childbirth now.

"Sit down, sit down." Luceria touched Jianguo's belly and said to her baby, "Be good, wait until Auntie Lia brings back the golden boot and the World Cup for you!"

Ram heard the conversation between the three of them and wanted to hide in it all the time, but seeing that Luceria had such fighting spirit, he also planned to support her, "Leah, what is your expected annual salary for the season?" ?”

"I'm only 10,000+ now. After the World Cup, I'll get more than 50!" Luceria is quite realistic. As the main force of the women's team, she is not greedy to ask for 50.Now Muller has more than 400 million, and it seems that it will increase year by year.

"50, okay. Then what is your bargaining chip with the club?" Lahm sat beside Jianguo, with one arm around her shoulder and the other stroking her stomach.

"I will win this year's Golden Boot, and strive to continue to successfully defend the title in the local World Cup and get the third star." Luceria raised her chin and said calmly.In front of her is the "fairy tale generation" of Germany, but they did not win the World Cup at home, but only led German football out of the downturn.

"But none of this has much to do with Bayern, unless you say you want to transfer." Lahm pointed out the problem directly, "But are there any other teams coming to poach you now? Or are you going to hype a big player yourself? What about the news?"

Luceria was stunned. How could a child with such a simple mind understand the complexity of the transfer battle.It is true that several foreign clubs had contacted her before, but she never thought of transferring to a foreign country.In that case, she would be too far away from Mueller, and she couldn't bear it.

"How about this, Leah, let me chat with your manager first, and then we will go to Mr. Hoeness to discuss it together. As for you, just prepare for the World Cup. You have a good enough result personally, and a salary increase is a natural thing. "Rahm has watched Luceria grow from a little girl to the present, so he will naturally help her.

"Thank you, Philip." After hearing what Ram said, Luceria immediately felt at ease.She is not a person who is extravagant and wasteful, but now that she is going to marry Mu Le, the income difference between the two is too large.She had always felt that her apartment was too small, and that Muller had been overcrowded since he moved in.I want to change to a bigger house with a better location and a newer building.

A good life is beckoning to me, only money is missing.

***

The opening match of the 2011 Women's World Cup was officially held at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Germany. The girls of the German team faced the French team first.

There are only 16 teams participating in the Women's World Cup, divided into four groups.Germany is in Group A this time with Canada, France and Nigeria.

The strength of national teams in the women's football world is also linked to the economy. Only countries with more developed economies are able to support the development of women's football.So the Canadian team is also quite strong, but not as strong as their neighbor, the US team.

France is a traditional strong team. Most of the members of their national team come from the old club, Lyon.Two weeks ago, Lyon beat Bayern to win the Champions League.

The Nigerian team is a rising star in Africa in recent years. Whether it is the men's football team or the women's football team, their performance has improved very quickly and has attracted much attention.

Therefore, the media also called Group A the "group of death", and they are not very optimistic about this young team in their country.

A large number of old players have retired, and they have met their old rivals, the French team. Many people have no idea.

But Luceria is not shy. This is her first time participating in the World Cup, so she doesn't care about old or young, young or not.

Walking into the Olympic Stadium, Luceria looked at this huge stadium, the seats were full, and more than 7 fans gathered together, the fire in her heart burned even more.Some of these fans are fans of their women's football team, the other part are fans of the men's football team who came to support by the way, and some of them are not actually fans, but just join in the fun.But no matter what, they will shout for the girls of women's football at the moment.

Listening to the loud cheers, Luceria stepped onto the turf.She rubbed it with the sole of her shoe, her heart beating extremely fast.This is the first such grand game in her life, she must work hard!

The referee blows the whistle and the game begins.The French team kicked off, and their captain Isabel kicked the ball wide and directly kicked the ball to the edge of the penalty area.

Elena immediately ran up and began to defend.

Lina also concentrated, staring at the black and white football like a chameleon locked on its prey.

Luceria did not go to the penalty area quickly, she knew that the threat of this attack would not be too great, and she needed to wait for the opportunity to counterattack at the right time.

Sure enough, after one of the midfield shots of the French team was intercepted by Elena, she immediately passed the ball to Simone behind her.Although Simone and Luceria have not played football many times, they are both talented players and they have a good understanding.Bypassing several French midfielders, Simone kicked the ball to Luceria.

After receiving the ball, Luceria immediately started running with the ball. She was extremely fast, and there were only two French defenders in front of her.

With the ball, she passed the two defenders one after another and faced the French goalkeeper.

However, the big team behind also retreated very quickly, and the time for her to shoot was less than three seconds.If the midfielders and defenders are crowded into the penalty area, they can at most win a corner kick.

So Luceria didn't hesitate, she pushed directly with the back of her foot, looking light and agile.

The goalkeeper flew sideways, but the football flew cleanly into the net over her arm.

Only 2 minutes into the game, the German team took the lead.

"Leah! Leah! That's my Leah!" Mueller stood up, waving his arms, wishing he could grow another pair of arms.

"Got it, got it." This is the first time Neuer has watched a game with Muller, and he has to respond to his words.

Bud was on the other side already calm, he looked at Elena with a smile in his eyes.

Cross kept Muller's small horn and was ready to hand it to him at any time.

Muller is not going to use the small horn so soon, because the game has just started and the spirit of the fans is still good, he doesn't need to go up to lead them.He yelled loudly after the fans, but he still kept up with the tune.

Luceria on the field didn't have time to correct his pitch problems, she was entangled by three defenders and seemed unable to get out.But once she saw that Hesplan was in the right position, she stepped a little, sent the ball from a defender, and rolled it precisely to Hesplan's feet.

Although these two people always fought bloody battles off the court and in the club, they still grew a lot in front of the national honor.It's no longer like when you entered the national team at the beginning, you will be taught by Simone by your braids.

15 minutes into the game, the statistics of the two sides looked evenly matched, but because of Luceria's goal, the German team still had a slight advantage.

A pass error was caught by Elena, who intercepted the ball, turned and passed it back to midfield.Luceria quickly retreated and cooperated with Simone to attack the penalty area from the wing.Hesplan raised his leg and shot, the ball bounced on the defender and flew up.Luceria jumped up at the right time, swung her head, and hit the ball into the net with a header.

2: 0.

At this time, the game time was less than 20 minutes, and the German fans in the audience cheered up. Muller also took the small horn and started yelling.

The three people around him unexpectedly did not cover their ears, but shouted along.They usually play on the field, and they rarely act as fans in the stands.This Women's World Cup, they will have enough fun.

Both Bud and Neuer have their own people to support. Although they are not as crazy as Muller, the battle is still set up.Cross watched cheerfully and found it very amusing.

Because of the smooth lead, the girls of the German team played more and more smoothly, but the French team became a little impatient.Some small mistakes will be caught immediately, and then quickly countered.

In stoppage time in the first half, Luceria scored again to make it 3:0.She participated in the World Cup for the first time and completed her personal hat-trick in the first game, which can be regarded as a miracle.

The fans in the audience were all excited, shouting Luceria's name, "Ilani, Irani, Irani!"

At this moment, Mueller suddenly burst into tears, he hugged Bud, and began to wipe tears on his clothes, "Holger, Holger, I am really glad that I didn't propose to Leah too early. Otherwise, 'Müller' would be shouted on the field. There are so many people in Germany with the last name Müller, who knows which Müller it is."

"You're thinking too much." Bud wanted to push him away, but felt that he shouldn't disappoint at such a moment, so he frowned and endured it.

At the end of the halftime, Luceria returned to the locker room. She sat down and rubbed her legs subconsciously.

"Ilani, you play for 10 minutes in the second half. If things go well, I'll switch to someone else." Of course Ned knew that Irani had a thigh muscle tear. Although she is still young, if the injury repeats , is also a headache.

"Hmm." Luceria didn't try to be brave. If there were no accidents in this match, they could seal the victory.Try not to get injured in the group stage, which is another goal of hers.

After the start of the second half, Luceria played for more than ten minutes. They basically grasped the rhythm of the field and played very happily.Ned let her play for 10 minutes, and then replaced an old player.

As she stepped off, the audience burst into thunderous applause for their heroine.

Luceria raised her hand and applauded along with them. She specifically faced the stand where Muller was sitting, and blew a kiss over there.

These two people are very low-key, so there are really not many people present who know about their relationship.So many male fans stretched out their hands presumptuously, rushing for the kiss.

Muller stretched out his long and slender arm, held down Cross and Bud, and told Neuer, "You are taller than me, you are not allowed to compete with me!"

Neuer looked at him with a foolish expression on his face, and asked Bud, "Is this guy stupid?"

"You are right, he is stupid." Bud nodded, glanced at his eyebrows and said, "You will know it after you come to Bayern next season. It is difficult to find anyone in this world who is more stupid than him." players."

"Holger is right, I am Bayern, no, I am a unique existence in football!" Muller held a trumpet in one hand and put his hand on his hips, extremely proud.
