    After being eliminated by Chelsea with a score of 0-1 in two rounds, many Newcastle people were unconvinced. In their view, Newcastle had the ability to score one or more goals in the two rounds, but luck was on Chelsea's side.  that side.

    Pei Wei sighed. He was not too sad about this result, although he also believed that Newcastle lost a bit unjustly.

    But losing means losing. Pei Wei still has this measure. Failure to reach the finals and win the championship means that he has lost a little profit. In terms of honors, he has reached the semi-finals of the Champions League for two consecutive seasons and  Winning a championship is already a great thing. After all, no team has been able to defend the Champions League since the restructuring of the Champions League. No one will laugh at them if they fail to do so.

    But this time it may make Abramovich happy. Last year, he was ranked behind Newcastle in both the league and the Champions League, which made the Russian billionaire very unhappy. When he met Pei Wei in public several times, he always felt a little bit smiley.  , this time Chelsea finally suppressed Newcastle in the Champions League (completely) and the league (temporarily). Pei Wei seemed to be able to see Abramovich laughing happily in the empty box in the stands as soon as he turned his head.

    Let him be proud as long as he is proud. Anyway, the situation is changing. There will be no complete victory in the professional league, only one season of victory. What's more, this season is not over yet. After losing the Champions League, Newcastle still has  league.

    And in Pei Wei's heart, he is vaguely not too willing for Newcastle to go on with such a smooth Champions League and Double Championship.  Winning too many honors will inevitably lead to slackness from the coach to the players, and the team will have to be reorganized at that time, and Pei Wei is not yet willing to break the overall framework of the team that was finally established so early.

    Anyway, this team, with an average age of only 27 years old, still has enough time to fight for their honors.

    Pei Wei wants to be free and easy, but other people in Newcastle may not be as free and easy as him.

    There were quite a few Newcastle fans in the stands who were silent in pain, but few of them blamed the players. After all, everyone could see it.  Newcastle players have done their best.

    ??And compared with them, Newcastle's players seem more painful.

    Dawson knelt on the lawn.  Breaking into tears, Lucio stared at the sky, not knowing what he was saying. Hart buried his head in the lawn, ignoring the mud and water on his face. Maybe he was still regretting why he put that arbitrary  The ball hit the goal post and Maicon sat on the lawn.  Looking helplessly at the cheering Chelsea players

    Nie Fei and Makelele reached out to pull Essien up together. Although Nie Fei was equally sad, he was a relatively calm person, while Makelele was older and had to be more careful about everything

    "You are our captain. Now, take us to thank the Newcastle fans." Nie Fei walked to Lucio and said softly.

    Lucio woke up with a start.  nodded.

    When the Newcastle players stood in a row and bowed under the stands occupied by Newcastle fans, Benitez had already walked towards Mourinho. The difference from before the game started was that this time the two men held hands tightly.  Hold together.

    "Sorry, Jose. I won this time." Benitez said calmly, without any trace of pride.

    And Mourinho didn't look frustrated at all, although he had many reasons to be frustrated - he lost an opportunity to engrav his name in the history of European football and became the tenth leader in history.  The team's chance to defend the Champions League - more importantly, he lost, lost the 24-game unbeaten record in the Champions League, and lost the first game in the Champions League in two seasons.  Lost the chance to reach the finals.

    Obviously, Mourinho also knows what "looking forward" means: "There is no complete failure in the world of football My failure today is the most gratifying kind, because in ten days. I will be able to gain  A chance to make a comeback.¡±

    Benitez understands what Mourinho means.  He was referring to the last round of the league, where Newcastle still has a chance to face Chelsea at home.  He nodded: "I'm also looking forward to that day. See you in ten days, Jose."

    "I'm waiting for you at St. James' Park, Rafael." Mourinho had one more thing he didn't say, which was "Ten days from now, I won't be like what I did in these two games."

    *********************************************

    Yes, for Newcastle, this season is not over yet. Although they have lost the Champions League, they still have the opportunity to compete for the league championship that they have never won since 1927.

      For Newcastle fans, they value the league championship more than the Champions League championship. Some fans have already shouted the slogan "100 points to win the championship", but this is not arrogance, but reality - Newcastle  Only by winning two consecutive rounds in the last two rounds can the championship be won. Newcastle's points are now 94 points. After winning two consecutive games, it will be exactly 100 points.

    It takes 100 points to win the league championship - which is probably unprecedented in the history of European football.

    There are still two rounds of the league left, and Newcastle is two points behind Chelsea. In the thirty-seventh round, Chelsea is at home against Charlton, who has no desire for anything. The possibility of winning is quite high, while Newcastle is away from home against the results of this season.  The quite impressive Everton - the latter is currently in fifth place, three points ahead of sixth-placed Liverpool, and has a good chance of entering the UEFA Cup directly without having to play in the Toto Cup.

    Playing in the Toto Cup means that the team has to concentrate half a month in advance, which is not beneficial to a team, so Everton will definitely try their best in this round of games, and for Newcastle  , if this game cannot be won, then the final home game against Chelsea may become a meaningless game.

    But the difficulty of this game for Newcastle is also obvious.

    Ribery was injured. Although it was not serious, he had to rest for a few days. The other main players were also exhausted from trying their best in the Champions League semi-finals. Just three days was not enough for them to recover.

    So Mourinho can only place his hopes on the main players and substitutes who can still play the game.

    For Newcastle, this game is a last-ditch battle. If they lose, they will lose the entire season. If they win, they will retain the hope of winning the league.

    ******************************************

    "I once told everyone that my football philosophy as Jose Mourinho is the philosophy of winning championships. Only by winning championships can our efforts be successful. I will never do it for any top players or former players.  There is only one goal worth striving for, and that is to win the championship.¡±

    Before the start of the 37th round of the game, in the dressing room at Goodison Park, Mourinho said to his players: "In this season, in order to win the Champions League and the league championship, we have successively  We gave up the League Cup and FA Cup, but unfortunately, we lost the Champions League, and for the Champions League, we lost the advantage we had maintained in the league for a long time This is my fault, sir.  But fortunately, we now have a chance to make up for this mistake.¡±

    "A league title is nothing. Every season, the European continent will decide the ownership of dozens of league titles, but only four of them belong to the four major leagues. For us, this will be the first league title we have won since 1927.  The first league championship since." He stretched out a seven with his left hand and an eight with his right hand: "Do you know what this means? This will be Newcastle's first championship in seventy-eight years!  Everyone here was not born when Newcastle won the last championship. There are probably only a handful of people in Newcastle who have seen the last league championship with their own eyes It¡¯s too long. Newcastle people have been waiting for this league championship for too long.  , so we can¡¯t miss this opportunity!¡±

    "What's more, if we can win two consecutive league championships, then our points will reach 100 points" A smile escaped from the corner of Mourinho's mouth: "In the entire history of the European League, there are still  No team can win such an honorI forgot to mention before that in addition to my goal of winning the championship, my other goal is to break or create records. No team has successfully defended the Champions League since its reform.  I haven¡¯t broken this record. I don¡¯t think you will let me lose the opportunity to break this record again, right?¡±

    The players burst into laughter and shouted: "Boss, no problem! We also want to break such a record!"

    "Okay, now we have the same goal." Mourinho laughed: "To achieve this goal, the first thing to do is to win this game - win against Everton at Goodison Park.  pause."

    "There is also good news." Seeing that Mourinho had finished laying out the tactics, Pei Wei stood up from the corner. Mourinho's words just now were very inflammatory, but he wanted the players to cheer up.  Morale has to rely on something else.

    "The club decided that if we can win the league championship, then the club will pay out the bonuses for winning the league and Champions League double as scheduled before the season In other words, as long as we win the league championship, everyone will  You will receive double prizes?, that was earned for your record-breaking performance.  "

    "Oh!" The players howled like bloodthirsty wolves.

    Win Everton!  For the championship!  For the record!  Forthe bonus!

    Ninety minutes later.

    "Three to one! Newcastle won Everton cleanly! They seemed not to be affected by their Champions League exit and kept the suspense until the last round!"
