The official launch of the World Club Cup was in 2005. As a world-class new event, it has received great attention from FIFA and FIFA spared no effort to promote the event.

This World Club Cup was held by Yokohama, Osaka, where FIFA jointly hosted, and for the promotion of the event, the advertising fee cost more than 30 million US dollars.

Of course, more income.

The TV broadcast rights of various countries alone are almost ready to pay for their money. In addition, the ticket sales of competitions will definitely be quite profitable.

However, compared with last year, the influence of this year's event has become smaller.

This is mainly because of Millwall.

The European team that participated in the World Club Cup last year was Arsenal, and the year before yesterday was Liverpool. As the top giant in England, Arsenal and Liverpool are still very famous.

Millwall won't do it.

Millwall has achieved brilliant results in the past two seasons, but after all, the time is still very short and its influence has not spread so quickly. In terms of club size, Millwall is still quite a gap compared to Arsenal and Liverpool. It can be seen that Neal Stadium relies on renovation and renovation to meet the requirements of the Champions League. Arsenal's Emirates Stadium and Liverpool's Anfield Stadium are all one of the world's top and most modern football stadiums.

Compared with commercial publicity, it is even more incomparable.

In short, Millwall's fame has dragged down the influence of the event.

In terms of publicity, perhaps only Livermore, who became the most famous star because he became a "signature figure", became much less famous by other players.

When Mirwall officially came to Japan-Yohoku, Japan-Yoku media also began to make a move for the game and analyze the possibility of remaining teams competing for the championship.

Millwall directly participated in the semifinals, and the qualifiers had ended before the arrival.

Among the four teams in the semi-finals, except for Mirwall in Europe and Boca Youth in South America, the remaining two teams are host Sunday-Hongura Ruby and Tunisia's Sahel Star.

Mirwall and Boca youth are definitely the most favored.

The second is Japan-Uura Ruby.

In the last game, Urawa Ruby, Japan defeated Sepahan from Iran 3-1 and won the AFC Champions League. His performance was very good throughout the game. Japanese fans also hope to see Urawa Ruby and continue to win the semi-finals.

Urawa Ruby's semi-final opponent is Millwall.

After Mirwall settled in the hotel, everyone started to rest. The first thing they had to do was to reverse the jet lag, otherwise the game would definitely not be in shape.

The next morning, the players had almost adjusted their players, and Zhang Yang gathered the team and went to the arranged stadium to warm up.

In the afternoon, it's the game.

Judging from the timing, we can see how tight Millwall's time is. Zhang Yang asked the players who had poor jet lag to continue to rest directly without having to participate in the afternoon game.

Zhang Yang really doesn’t attach importance to the World Club Cup.

At best, this event can only be considered a "event". There is no way to participate in a FIFA event, and it is impossible to refuse. The schedule is so dense that it is not easy to take a few days. In addition, what is very troublesome is the jet lag. The jet lag is a big trouble for the team. Even if the jet lag is reversed, it is necessary to return to London. The continuous jet lag is a challenge to the player's condition.

This will definitely affect the league status.

Zhang Yang is in Japan - I don't have a good mood, even if Japan - I am very enthusiastic?

So what?

Nowadays, no matter where Mirwall goes, fans will be very enthusiastic. It is definitely more popular to go to China, because China is its own motherland and more fans support it.

Japan?

Sorry, Zhang Yang has no good feelings.

For the event itself, Zhang Yang’s only requirement for the players is, “We must win the first game!”

The players were a little puzzled.

Zhang Yang looked at the players carefully. They were all wearing sportswear and other things were on the sidelines and locker room, and then said with peace of mind, "I don't want the next thing to say to be known to the outside."

Everyone suddenly became very interested.

"I am a Chinese, and Japan is our neighbor. I still have some understanding of this country." Zhang Yang said, "The Japan-Ben country, or the so-called Great Union nation, is a group of very slave people. They admire the strong, respect the strong, and do not despise the weak, and like to bully the weak."

"This is their innate nature, perhaps determined by genetic inheritance."

"So it is very difficult to get along with them in a friendly manner. If you are stronger than them, they will respect you and admire you. Even if you slap them, they still take it for granted. But if you are weaker than them... of course, it will be the other way around."

"Do you understand?"

"If we lose to Urawa Ruby, there will be no Japanese-National fans who support us again. In turn, the more we win the game, the more Japanese-National fans will win, respect!"

Zhang Yang's words stunned a group of players. This was the first time they heard the words of Japan-Ben country.

But, ahem.

Zhang Yang only said it once, and he would definitely not admit it when he went outside. He never engages in racial discrimination. Even if he despises him in his heart, he would not really show it...

"This is the truth, what can I do!"

Zhang Yang thought.

As a Chinese, he doesn't want his team to lose to Japan-Ben. Even if he loses to Boka youth team or to Sahel stars, he doesn't feel special. If he loses to Urawa Ruby, he won't be able to lose to him.

So Zhang Yang attached great importance to the first game.

Yokohama International Comprehensive Arena is the most popular multi-purpose sports field with the largest number of seats in Japan, and can accommodate nearly 75,000 fans.

The stadium was filled with lively early, and many fans were waiting to enter the stadium to watch the game.

This was the first game of the semi-finals and the craziest game of ticket buying, as one team was Urawa Ruby and the other team was considered the strongest Millwall.

In the hearts of Japanese fans, Millwall is not a strong team.

No matter how good Millwall's performance is, they are just a team that suddenly rises, not top giants like Manchester United and Real Madrid.

Those who know Mirwall are better, but if they don’t understand, they think that FIFA should find a European giant to replace Mirwall to participate in the game. Fans outside the court discussed, “Milwall? I haven’t heard of it. Teams such as AC Milan, Barcelona should be allowed to participate in the game!”

"Milwall probably has no strength, even if they were the last Champions League champions."

"So what about the Champions League champions! Porto is also a champion, and Monaco has won the championship..." It is naturally meaning that the Champions League champion does not mean that it is strong, but the top giants are definitely strong.

Of course, this is not something they can decide.

When the time was about to be equal, the stadium opened and the fans flocked to the entrance. After entering the stadium, they saw two teams warming up.

One is Urawa ruby.

One is Millwall.

To be honest, Millwall's players are not that famous because Bente, the most famous, has left in the summer.

Among the other players, Braniff and Valdy only became famous this year, and they were all a little unknown before; Morris has always performed well and was selected for the England national team, but he has no dominant performance and is difficult to enter the ranks of superstars.

The other players are similar. Pire, who is more famous, is already old, while Zambrota is just a defender and is not well-known in East Asian countries.

The most famous team became the "poster ambassador" Livermore.

Many fans also shouted Livermore for support for Millwall.

"Look!"

"That strong guy, he's Livermore!"

"It's a little different from the poster, he's more vicious..."

"Only blame PS technology..."

In addition to the support from Livermore, the rest were cheering for Urawa Ruby.

This surprised Millwall players.

In Mirwall players, they are the Champions League champions and will definitely be popular with fans when they go to East Asian countries. Even if the fans support their own teams, there will be many people who are chasing Mirwall.

But they didn't see it.
