Football No. 10: God's Perspective

Chapter 208 Champions League Final

Liverpool coach Klopp is still full of affection for Borussia Dortmund.

In 2013, Borussia Dortmund reached the Champions League final, but ultimately lost to the powerful Bayern Munich. The head coach of the Hornets at the time was Klopp, the current coach of the "Red Army".

Almost bringing Dortmund to the top of Europe, I have to say that this is not a small regret.

Once upon a time, Borussia Dortmund was so close to the top, just a little short of it.

Klopp is a Hornet who left with regret. When he met his old club again, he didn't expect that it was already the Champions League final.

In a pre-match interview, when talking about facing his old club this time, Liverpool coach Klopp was full of emotions and said sincerely, "I spent wonderful years here, and I will never forget it. To meet again is an extraordinary experience." The feeling is both familiar and unfamiliar. I wish Dortmund good luck in the final and wish my team good luck.”

A few words contained Klopp's infinite expression. This German with a rough face and an outgoing personality also showed his true temperament.

Faced with his ex, Tuchel gave this answer: "It is a wonderful fate to be able to meet again on a stage like the Champions League final. I think this game is happy for Borussia Dortmund fans." , I look forward to a wonderful game between the two teams.”

Instead of the smoke before the previous Champions League finals, there is only infinite warmth.

Knowing that the Dortmund team led by Wang Po came to the Stadium of Light, many Benfica fans were already prepared. They are not Dortmund fans and do not support Liverpool. They are here entirely for the son of Benfica in their eyes.

From this city and this team, two years later, when Benfica No. 80, who was ignorant and tried his best for a main position when they first met, reunited with them again, he was already the core of the Champions League final team that could stand alone. .

Benfica fans have a feeling of hoping that their son will succeed and are full of pride.

Game day.

The two strongest teams in the Champions League this season meet here.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, pushing the suffocation before the battle to a climax.

Even with the risk of rain, the entire stadium was still packed.

Half red and half yellow, they are Liverpool fans and Borussia Dortmund fans respectively. The two sides are clearly distinct.

Of course, there is also a small group, that is, the Benfica fans who came to the scene to cheer for Wang Po. They put up their own slogan, "Wanderers go home, welcome No. 80."

Compared with the tensions in previous finals, fans from both sides were very harmonious before the game because of the coach.

Cheer each other and cheer in a civilized manner.

The decisive battle is coming.

The Dortmund team bus arrived at the stadium first.

The moment he stepped off the bus, Wang Po felt a sense of familiarity. The Stadium of Light in front of him was the starting point of his career. After so many years, he had witnessed his growth and he couldn't wait to play on this stadium. Kicked.

Many Benfica fans gathered outside the stadium, holding the No. 80 jersey once worn by Wang Po.

Such a familiar scene made Wang Po feel as if he had returned to five years ago, with the cheers and shouts of Benfica fans ringing in his ears.

For this city, this stadium, the Benfica team, and the fans, Wang Po could only feel grateful. After satisfying the fans' wishes for taking photos one by one, he quickly entered the locker room to prepare for the upcoming decisive battle.

Warm-up session before the game.

Many Dortmund players took the initiative to talk to the Liverpool coach.

As the current head coach of the Hornets, Tuchel also generously stepped forward to hug Klopp and wish each other well.

Of course, competitive sports are always cruel, and there can only be one champion.

No matter how warm they are before the game, when the game begins, both sides will fight to the death for the final honor.

The exciting Champions League march has resounded through the Stadium of Light.

Fans of Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund held up the scarves of their respective home teams to form a scarf wall, waiting for the players to enter.

Standing in the team, the players on both sides said nothing, and everyone's expressions were very serious. Wang Po felt that the air was suffocating and depressing.

Entered.

The air mixed with the fragrant earth gave Wang Po the illusion of making his professional debut.

The air was stuffy and the dark clouds in the sky were thicker.

Will it be a rain battle?

"Du~!"

With much anticipation, the referee blew his whistle.

The Champions League final is about to begin.

Liverpool were the first to kick off. As soon as they came up, Mane and Salah's two sharp strikers made a fuss about the gap in the ribs between the two linebackers and the center back.

The two full-backs on the left and right, Arnold and Robertson, also attacked.

Even though Dortmund is the main defender, in terms of numbers, they do not have much advantage against the pressing Liverpool team.

Robertson, who was positioned at 45 degrees, made a one-two with Salah, who was on his back, and penetrated Dortmund's defense.

Although Salah is not tall, his core strength is very strong. He can stay close to the tall central defender with his back, and he is already firmly leaning on the opponent, without suffering any disadvantages in terms of physical confrontation.

Robertson, who played against the wall, rushed into the penalty area with the ball. Facing the blockade of Dortmund's full-back, he looked up and saw that his teammates had already ambushed and rushed forward. Just when everyone thought he would choose a low ball or pass to Gao Qiu, he suddenly made an inverted triangle back to Firmino at the top of the penalty area.

The center forward did not compete for the header, but pulled out to support. This uncharacteristic running choice made the defense very uncomfortable.

After getting the ball, Firmino drew his bow and arrow, shot a burst, and ran towards the corner of the goal.

Fortunately, Schmelzer was brave and saved the ball with all his strength.

At the beginning of the game, Liverpool's sharp offensive system had already shown its fangs, and Firmino's shot made everyone sweat.

It took only 4 seconds from the start of the attack to the end.

Such a quick attack method is chilling.

Dortmund's defense is destined to experience great winds and waves in this game.

It has started to drizzle in the sky. The presence of rain will reduce the friction of the ball on the grass and increase the chance of many accidental balls.

Liverpool's corner kick was fought for by their central defender Van Dijk, but unfortunately, the header went over the crossbar.

Liverpool's two consecutive attacks at the beginning gave Dortmund a strong blow.

Of course, the Hornets also responded quickly.

Schmelzer looked at the ball to the right, where Wang Po was pulling to the side to receive it.

With the spinning high-altitude ball, Wang Po stopped very easily, as if there was a magnet, and the ball landed steadily and motionlessly.
