Modric then walked over.

The two hugged.

This is also Croatia's Mr. Golden Globe, the best praise for Chinese men.

"Thank you, Mr. Modric, you are the best midfielder in the world."

"Trust me, kid, you're unbelievable, I'm sure you'll get your third ever Champions League trophy in Istanbul."

After getting the Magic Flute's uniform, Qin Xi and several friends walked to the sidelines to express their gratitude to the fans.

Mount was dressed in civilian clothes and looked very excited.

"Thank you both, it's your goal that gives me a chance to play in the Champions League this season."

Seeing the excited appearance of the English guy, Qin Xi felt that all this was more like a dream.

This time last year, he was still in China, preparing with the team for the quarter-finals of the West Sea FA Cup, worried about his job.

Today, he has established himself at Chelsea and has become a household name among football fans around the world.

"West, what kind of data do you think you'll get in FIFA24?" Gallagher asked with a smile.

"I don't know, I can be similar to Hudson-Odoi, I will be satisfied!" Qin Xi said modestly.

You know, his stats are not ideal in any game.

"Don't worry, you will be in the best team, the best team in the Champions League!" Jorginho on the side came over and said to his successor with a smile.

......

The second day of reaching the Champions League final.

The teams have a day off.

Qin Xi and several friends gathered at Mason Mount's home to watch the second leg of Manchester City's semi-final against AC Milan.

Before the game, everyone was unanimously optimistic that Manchester City would reach the final.

Foden, Grealish, Stones and others are all their national team teammates.

But he will also silently support AC Milan in his heart, after all, Giroud has made great achievements at Chelsea, giving this group of children a few shooting lessons necessary for professional footballers, and Tomori is also their youth teammate.

However, Qin Xi did not care about the outcome of this game.

He just wanted to eat a few more of Barbara's secret cookies.

Mount's wife's design company career is also thriving.

Friends meet up, and when the new product is released, they will definitely take some photos as free models.

"West, it's a pity that your figure is actually not a model." Barbara praised her husband's Chinese friend.

"Yes, West, wait for London Fashion Week in the summer, do you want to make a cameo appearance for her." Mount drank two glasses of lemon juice and said with a smile.

Qin Xi decisively agreed.

This game is even more anxious than expected.

After all, there is a one-goal lead, so Milan is more of a defensive counterattack.

Tonight's Etihad Stadium doesn't seem to be working its magic.

Haaland, Grealish, hit the post twice in a row in the first half.

Milan's McNiang was excellent, blocking high and also blocking many threatening shots from the home side.

The score was not broken until the 69th minute of the second half.

This script is very similar to yesterday's Chelsea game.

Manchester City were equalised by Kevin De Bruyne's long-range goal.

But just when everyone thought Manchester City would go ahead and win the game.

In the 87th minute, substitute Ibrahimovic stepped up.

The Swedish striker received an assist from Leo and swept into the net in front of goal.

1:1, while equalizing the score, it also exceeded the aggregate score again.

It is unimaginable that Manchester City were eliminated by their opponents on their doorstep.

Upper Serie A champions, AC Milan, reached the Champions League final for the first time after nearly 16 years.

"It's also unbelievable, Manchester City are eliminated!" Seeing the whistle blowing at the end of the game, everyone in front of the TV couldn't believe it.

"yes, I have to send a message to Grealish quickly, he won't get depressed." Chilwell on the side looked a little gloating.

"Milan is still an old giant, after many years back in the Champions League, all the way to the final." Qin Xi also lamented the rapid changes in the football world.

As long as he can remember, that Italian team was one of the biggest players in the world.

Too many superstars have been bred.

At that time, Chelsea could only be regarded as a mid-tier team in the Premier League.

But in another month and a half, these two new and old giants with different histories will meet in the Champions League final.

Both the fans and the players enjoyed it all.

.......

The team's priority for the next month is to prepare for the rest of the Premier League.

May, the season of spring blossoms.

It was also the worst month for the Premier League.

Pay for the World Cup again.

Throughout May, they have to complete nearly eight domestic league games.

Almost every week, it's a week double race.

Manchester City, which has lost their hopes of winning the Champions League, will also put all their energy back on the domestic scene.

Whether it's the Premier League or the FA Cup, it's an honour they have to fight for.

Chelsea are thankful that the FA Cup elimination by Forest has eased some of the pressure.

Otherwise, this May, there will be at least one more game for no reason.

.....

At the beginning of the month, Chelsea won 2-0 and 3-0 away games over Bournemouth and Fulham respectively.

Qin Xi only appeared in the second game, providing an assist.

The match against Arsenal on May 8 became the first hard bone after the semi-finals of the Champions League.

In the first round at home to Arsenal, Chelsea narrowly won 3-2.

That match was the stage for Qin Xi to perform alone.

Two goals, one assist, and an own goal.

So before the away game against Arsenal, Qin Xi was also ridiculed by his teammates.

"Coach! I don't understand, why do we have to finish three away games in a row? Werner asked Tuchel puzzled.

'Because the FA thinks you're going to do better away than you did at Stamford Bridge.'

.......

Stepping into the Emirates Stadium, Qin Xi also felt the different atmosphere of North London for the first time.

The solemn and solemn wall gives this once dominant master of London a unique sense of mystery.

Before the game, some of the good things Chelsea fans put up signs.

They joked that their opponents didn't have any Champions League titles.

But Arsenal fans talk about the number of top-flight titles, and indeed, this is also Chelsea's pain.

Everyone at Chelsea knows that they can only get their feet on the ground and improve one by one.

In order to touch the Premier League trophy down-to-earth.

And want to make that dream come true.

Defeating the opponent in front of you is the most important thing.

After all, Manchester City also completed a two-game winning streak in the league after being eliminated in the Champions League.

The prologue of the double blue hegemony has entered a white-hot stage!
