February 18, 2020.

The heavy snowfall in Milan has long ceased and the temperature is gradually warming up.

People took off their heavy down jackets and began to wear jackets, trench coats and other clothing, and blondes who loved beauty even wore elegant long dresses in advance.

The slender floral skirt, swaying in the south breeze, quietly reveals the breath of spring.

In the bar next to Milan's Plaza Communal, a middle-aged fat uncle in a wheelchair is chatting with his table over a beer.

"The Champions League knockout round is finally here, for this day, we Inter Milan have been waiting for eight years, eight years, Sosa, eight years ago, you were still in the fifth grade of St. Louis Primary School, and now you are so tall!"

The young man called Sousa took the beer and clinked glasses with the fat man and took a big gulp.

The cold beer ran down his throat and rushed into his fiery stomach, all over his body, and his heart was cold.

"It's not Uncle Moricardo, it was in the distant year 2012, when we drew 2-2 with France's Marseille in the 8/1 final of the Champions League in the 8/1 final, but unfortunately we had an away goal disadvantage and did not reach the quarter-finals."

Ricardo touched the thick beard on his lips with his hand, stained with beer foam, and muttered in the thick accent of an Italian man:

"That race, your dad was on duty at the city hall, there was no time, it was me riding a bicycle, holding you to Mea to check out the second round of the race, hey, you cried so much after the game, saying that we must win back next year, not only to reach the quarterfinals, but also to win the championship!"

"Who knows, eight years have passed, we have only qualified from the Champions League group stage, my God, these eight years have been too difficult, I am almost depressed to death!"

Sousa shrugged, asked the bartender for a beer, and handed it to Uncle Ricardo.

"Uncle, tomorrow's match against Paris Saint-Germain, I will drive you over, specially get you a VIP ticket, the wheelchair can be directly pushed to the seat!"

Ricciardo's face showed a look of relief, which turned to look forward to tomorrow's game.

"It's still my nephew, since I was paralyzed three years ago, I haven't been to the scene to watch the ball, tomorrow I want to see, is it Neymar in Paris, or our Ye Chen is powerful!"

On the evening of February 19, Meazza Stadium.

In order to stagger the national leagues on the weekend, the Champions League matches are scheduled for midweek evenings.

Although today is Wednesday, it belongs to the evening of a weekday.

But the Meazza Stadium is still packed!

Seventy-eight thousand fans flocked to the Nerazzurri's sanctuary to witness the team's re-entry into the knockout stages of the Champions League.

Inter's opponent in this quarter-final, Paris Saint-Germain, is a powerful player who has sprung up in the French Serie A in recent years!

In 2011, the Qatar Sports Investment Fund invested 50 million euros to buy 70% of the shares in Paris, becoming the club's controlling shareholder, opening the era of "golden dollar football" for this Ligue 1 giant.

Founded in 1970, Paris does not have a deep history compared to a century-old team like Inter.

But after the Middle East oil daddy settled in, Paris is not what it used to be, and successively bought Ibrahimovic, Cavani, Beckham, Neymar and other superstars, almost becoming France's galaxy battleship!

Neymar, in particular, joined Paris from Barcelona in 2017 for a record transfer fee of €222 million.

This record has been held to this day, no one has been able to surpass it, and it is expected to continue for a long time to come.

Under such a superstar effect, Paris Saint-Germain has won the Ligue 1 championship 6 times in the past 7 years, becoming a veritable Ligue 1 banba!

You know, they have only 8 league titles in their history, 6 of which were won by Qataris.

Although it is soaring in its home league, no one can stop it;

But in the Champions League, Paris has repeatedly failed.

The best result is to reach the quarterfinals.

This season, club president Nasser stressed to the whole team that he must go further in the Champions League, strive for greater breakthroughs, and even win the title!

After all, only in this way can we better highlight the national image of Qatar, the shareholder behind it.

The showdown between these two giants has also attracted the attention of many authoritative media.

Sky Sports Studio, London, UK.

Irving, Gary Neville and David Beckham were the commentators for the game.

All three are former world-renowned superstars, now retired and working in football.

Neville: "Hello everyone, fifteen minutes to go, this Inter vs Paris Champions League eighth-elimination match is about to begin.

"David Beckham, sitting next to me, has the most say about these two teams, David, say hello to the audience!"

Beckham was dressed in a blue slim suit, elegant and proud, full of gentlemanly atmosphere.

"Hello audience friends, nice to meet you!"

"David," Neville said to him with a smile, "of the three of us, only you have played in Serie A and played in Paris, you must know these two teams well, tell us about Inter and Paris in your eyes!" Born

in 1975, David Beckham is famous for his handsome face and golden right foot that is as accurate as a missile.

He spent his career at Manchester United and Real Madrid.

At the end of his career, he played for AC Milan for one year and Paris Saint-Germain for half a year.

Beckham opened his hands, put his fingers together, and placed them on the table.

Smiled slightly, revealing the smile that made female fans around the world enchanted!

'Ten years ago, I played at AC Milan and played Inter, when Inter were at their peak and Munirio was the manager.

"This team gives me the feeling that they will not give up until the last second of the game, and it is this fighting spirit and bloodiness that contributed to their winning of the Champions League and reaching the top of Europe."

"As for Paris Saint-Germain," Beckham's face was filled with a happy smile, "I have many good memories in Paris!" "

This is the last team I played for in my career, I retired here in 2013, ending my playing career and I love Paris!"



On May 19, 2013, the 38-year-old veteran David Beckham finished the final game of his career as captain of Paris, and on that day he cried

and the son of the wind, the golden boy Owen, asked: "David, do you think there is any difference between Paris now and the Paris you played for seven years ago?" Beckham

smiled, revealing a row of white, neat teeth.

"Needless to say, now Paris is even stronger!"

"Although I had strikers like Ibrahimovic and Edinson Cavani back then, Paris now has a more balanced attack and defense."

"Neymar, Verratti, Silva, the central axis of these three, after several years of running-in, has become more mature, and it is time for Paris to produce results."

Gary Neville grabbed David Beckham's last words and asked him:

"David, do you mean that Paris will take Inter's home ground tonight?"

David Beckham smiled and nodded, "From a fan's point of view, I think so, Inter are very strong now, there are excellent attackers such as Ye Chen and Lukaku, but in terms of comprehensive strength, Paris is better." Gary

Neville looked at his watch and there were five minutes to go, and the game was about to begin.

"Last question, I want to ask Owen and David, please answer quickly."

"Owen, Neymar or Ye Chen?"

"Neymar."

"Prediction score?"

"Inter 2-3 Paris."

"David, Neymar or Ye Chen?"

"Neymar."

"Prediction score?"

"Inter 1-3 Paris."
