My name is Colani

"It's hard for us to say who will win this game!" Guardiola laughed. It's really hard to say. Trapani's performance this season shocked him. He didn't know where the end of this Trapani would be. European champion? ! Why not? !

But Barcelona is also in a stable period under the leadership of Rijkaard. The technical and tactical play and personnel status are very stable. They also have enough strength to go to the key. On the way to the final, they eliminated Chelsea, Benfica and Milan one after another. The road ahead is not easier than Trapani.

"Then Pep, who do you think is stronger on paper!" The commentator asked again.

"Maybe in terms of experience, Barcelona is better. They have a unique temperament!" Guardiola said. Temperament is the foundation of a giant. In his opinion, Trapani is not a giant after all!

But far away in Italy, another veteran of Trapani, Lombardo, does not see it this way.

"I think we have a good chance to win the Champions League. Trapani is better than Barcelona in terms of the state of the whole season. They are young, full of fighting spirit and never give up!"

"Now Trapani has no injuries, no one is suspended, the players are complete, Deschamps has many choices, I believe he will do well!"

Inside the Stade de France.

"Will we win?!" Musasha sat beside Hugo and asked Hugo.

"Of course we will win! Because we are the best team now!" Hugo smiled and blinked.

"Not even Real Madrid?!" Musasha now understands football and knows that the Galacticos are full of superstars.

Hugo couldn't help laughing. What is the effect of the old man's policy? ! Hugo didn't know how to define it. If you want to say failure, it doesn't count. They won the Champions League. If you want to say success, the honors in recent years are pitiful.

"Real Madrid just has a lot of stars!" Hugo curled his lips in contempt.

But he had another idea in his mind. The old man's method is worth learning from. Let's talk about La Liga. What is La Liga really? It has always been below Serie A, but under the old man's Galaxy Battleship, it has achieved great success in reputation.

The old man would say that Real Madrid is the best team in the world. Well, in the selection at the beginning of the century, Real Madrid took the first place, but their achievements were not supported in recent years, but relied on ancient history!

I bah, Hugo was unhappy when he thought about this. Don't you just have a rich father? Compared with the past ten years, your Real Madrid is almost sidelined!

Hugo was unhappy, but there was nothing he could do. The old man raised the status of Real Madrid, and with the means of money, he made stars flock to it. He also spent a lot of money and also destroyed the market rules, but who the hell went to find him? !

Thinking of this, Hugo thought of G14. G14 is an alliance organized by European giants. The meaning of its existence is needless to say, to protect the interests of the giants and to go against UEFA from time to time.

The old man is very good at dancing in this organization and has very good relations with many presidents. Naturally, the leaders of European clubs will not trouble him, and there will be no trouble like Abrahimovic and Hugo being called nouveau riche.

"Gigi, what are you thinking about?! The game is about to start!" Musa patted Hugo. Her boyfriend sometimes has a little distraction and sometimes wanders away.

"Oh, oh, I'm not thinking about anything! Let's watch the game!" Hugo came back to his senses, "Let me see who they start today!"

The starting lineup is not difficult to guess at all. The positions between the main players and substitutes in Rijkaard and Deschamps' teams throughout the season are relatively clear, and only some positions are hard to say.

Barcelona still uses 433. This formation is their routine, as if it is their tradition. Many coaches who serve as head coaches in Barcelona like to use this formation because it is the legacy left by Cruyff, the godfather of Barcelona, ​​and Barcelona prefers to invite Dutch head coaches, in which Cruyff will play a key role.

Goalkeeper: Valdés

Defenders: Oleger Puyol Marques Van Bronckhorst

Midfielders: Van Bommel Edmilson Deco

Forwards: Ronaldinho Giulia Eto'o

This lineup lacks Xavi, who was the brain of the midfield under Rijkaard and the absolute main force, but he tore the ligament of his left knee in December last year and has not fully recovered from the injury until now.

It is precisely because of his injury that Edmilson took over. Now Barcelona's lineup feels tougher in defense. Xavi only sat on the bench in this game. Many parties confirmed before the game that he is unlikely to play.

But Barcelona's formation has been skillfully operated for half a season, and the midfield energy is not small.

Trapani is still 442.

Goalkeeper: Kameni

Defenders: Maicon Barzagli Samuel Jankulovski

Midfielders: Ribery Essien Pizarro Messi

Forwards: Toni Kroos

Trapani's formation was almost used throughout the season. During Toni's injury, Deschamps played 433 for a while. After Toni returned, he immediately adjusted the formation back. Generally speaking, this lineup seems to focus on offense rather than defense, but in fact their defensive ability is not bad at all.

Today's Barcelona is a little bit shorter than Trapani in height. Trapani's ability to control the air in set pieces will not be a big problem. What they need to be careful of is Barcelona's fast-paced offense and small-scale passing and cutting cooperation, which is particularly dangerous for Trapani during the transition between offense and defense. Barcelona's forwards are all fast horses, flexible and technically capable. The African cheetah Eto'o is not a decoration on the front line.

In order to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Champions League, this year's 51st final returned to Paris, the venue of the first final. After 246 days and 124 games, Barcelona, ​​who scored the most goals, and Trapani, who scored the second most goals, entered the final battle.

This is the fifth time that Barcelona has reached the Champions League final. The only previous championship was in the 1991-92 season. In the European finals, Barcelona has encountered English teams three times, but none of them won. They were against Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa in the 1980 and 1983 Super Cups respectively, and against Manchester United in the 1990-91 Cup Winners' Cup final. Rijkaard hopes to become the fifth person to win the Champions League as a coach and a player.

As for Trapani, this is the first time in their 100-year history that they have reached the Champions League final. Last season, they were eliminated in the group stage. This season, they made a comeback under the leadership of Deschamps and fought to the final. If they can win the championship, it will be the first time in history to lift the Champions League. Head coach Deschamps may become the first French head coach to lift the Champions League trophy. Of course, he may become the fifth person to lift the championship trophy as a head coach and a player.

Both teams have players who have played for each other. Deco from Barcelona played for Trapani for a season before. Unfortunately, Hugo spent every penny in half at that time. He had clearly reached an agreement with Porto, but later regretted it. Later, it was not easy to get Deco back.

Before the game, the honest man Deco also said that he had a good time in Trapani and felt very happy!

If Hugo read this passage, he would definitely be moved by Deco. You are such a good person. Didn’t Mendes tell you that I actually cheated on you? !

On Trapani's side is Kluivert, who was the star of Barcelona during its low period, but he seemed a little upset after leaving Barcelona. Of course, Kluivert did not say anything bad about his old club, but just refused to be interviewed by reporters.

The pre-match performances have ended, and the players of both sides have completed the pre-match ceremony. With the whistle of the Norwegian referee Asson, the game officially began.

Speaking of referees, we have to talk about the referees. Originally, the referee of this game was Asson's compatriot Bogan, but the referee was photographed wearing a Barcelona jersey before the game, so the topic of public opinion was unfavorable to him, saying that he was a Barcelona fan.

Deschamps said at the press conference that this was not a problem. He believed that even if Bogan was really a Barcelona fan, he would not favor his opponent.
