My uncle is Inzaghi

As the dust settles in European leagues.

The eyes of all Europe and the world are focused on Berlin.

The venue for this UEFA Champions League final is the Olympiastadion in Berlin.

Both teams arrived in Berlin about three days in advance and checked into their respective hotels.

Every day, a large number of fans and reporters wait below the hotel.

When I see the players going out for training or coming back from training.

The fans cheered them.

Neither side is new to the Champions League final.

Naturally, there is no big psychological fluctuation.

The media is making blind analysis every day. Some people say that Real Madrid has a huge psychological advantage by beating Barcelona three times.

Some people also say that Barcelona lost three games in a row, and they learned their shame and became brave again. No one can underestimate Barcelona's fighting spirit.

Anyway.

These days, the focus of all football media and TV stations is on this game.

When the players arrive at the stadium.

There was already a sea of ​​people outside Berlin's Olympiastadion.

Looking around, they are all white Real Madrid fans and red and blue Barcelona fans.

Fans of both teams were already outside the stadium before they even entered the stadium.

The two sides were quite tense, making the staff of the local security department very nervous.

Barcelona and Real Madrid.

They have been mortal enemies for many years.

The competition between them has always been the main axis of Spanish football.

Maybe occasionally some other team will join the competition.

But look at it from a large historical scale.

The competition between Real Madrid and Barcelona is the main tone of Spanish football.

this season.

In terms of domestic competition in Spain.

Barcelona was completely at a disadvantage.

And now in the Champions League final.

This is nothing more than spreading the competition between Spain's two giants to the entire European stage.

And for Barcelona.

The only hope that can save their season.

It was the victory over Real Madrid in the Champions League final.

Thus.

Even if they lost the La Liga title and the Copa del Rey.

But as long as they can win in the most important Champions League final, their season will still be a successful one!

The players from both sides finished warming up and returned to the locker room.

Both coaches have to make final preparations for the match accommodation.

‘Okay guys! Put down what you are doing and listen to me! ’

Zidane closed the door to the dressing room, and the noise outside suddenly turned into a humming background sound.

Zidane clapped his hands, and the words he spoke loudly echoed in the huge locker room, forming an echo.

From this point of view.

The home stadium of the German national team is in very good condition and the dressing room is very soundproof.

All the busy Real Madrid players stopped one after another. Everyone raised their heads and turned to look at the coach.

"During this period, everyone is probably tired of hearing about the Triple Crown. In the eyes of many media, it seems that it is a certainty that we will defeat our opponents and win this championship."

Zidane said.

"But I have to tell you, the opponent you are facing is Barcelona. If this name is not enough to make you wary, then everyone has to think carefully about how much trouble this team has caused us? They... were once called the Cosmos team! They once dominated the entire Europe!"

"It is true that we defeated them in the league and the Copa del Rey, but I want to remind you. The Champions League is different from domestic competitions. Just because we can beat them in domestic competitions does not mean that we can also win in the Champions League. If you do this, there will be no correlation between any two games. If you feel that this opponent is not worthy of vigilance and you only need to perform a little on the court to take away the Champions League championship after ninety minutes, then I will tell you. It will only be us who lose the championship in the end!”

Zidane's tone became stern.

"Last year, we also appeared on this stage! But unfortunately, we couldn't take away the trophy! A year later, we are back here again. Are we going to just take away a runner-up medal like last year?"

"No! Of course not!"

Zidane clenched his fist and swung it forward suddenly, as if knocking down his enemy.

"This is an opportunity for us!"

In the Barcelona dressing room.

Enrique's eyes swept over his players.

"I know that everyone can see in the media that this is a revenge game. Because they defeated us in the league and the Copa del Rey."

"I don't deny this point of view. In a sense, this is a battle of revenge, and it is also our battle of redemption!"

"Guys, remember, don't leave any regrets for this season. From now on, you'd better put the concept of the Triple Crown out of your minds and forget about the record against your opponents. They just need to remember a little."

Zidane held up a finger.

"If you lose this game because you underestimated the enemy, then this will become your eternal regret!"

"Don't leave any regrets for this wonderful season!"

"No, let us look back in a few years and think this was an extremely bad season!"

"This game is about revenge and redemption!"

Enrique's voice calmed down.

"Guys, in my opinion, Barcelona is undoubtedly quite strong. Our opponent is only ourselves. This game is not so much against Real Madrid as it is against ourselves."

"Barcelona's football philosophy has always been about me, so we must overcome the dark clouds hanging above our heads. The road to victory lies under our own feet!"

"I'm very happy that God has given us a chance to become truly strong. Now, this opportunity is in front of you, please don't let it slip away from you!"

Some players stood up excitedly.

"This time! We must win!"

obviously.

Players on both sides have been fully mobilized.

So when they were standing in the tunnel preparing to play.

There was no conversation between the players.

Everyone was silent and looked very serious.

In private.

Many players from the two teams are still familiar with each other, and many players even have personal relationships with each other.

But on this occasion.

Both sides are absolute enemies.

The rivalry between these two teams extends to all aspects.

No matter how good the relationship is in private.

On this occasion, neither side will look good.

While the players were standing in the tunnel waiting to play.

In the stands outside.

Fans from both sides have already begun to compete.

Diehard fan groups from both sides were positioned behind the goals.

Diehard fans from both sides each occupied a stand behind the goal.

Both sides have erected huge TIFOs on their respective territories.

Real Madrid fans used scraps of paper to create a giant UEFA Champions League trophy.

On one side of the pattern, is a huge number: 10.

Under the patterns and numbers.

It's a line of small words: Real Madrid, King of the Champions League!

Yes.

Real Madrid is the undisputed king of the Champions League.

They have nine Champions League trophies.

More than any other team.

Barcelona on the other side is not to be outdone, they also have their own tifo.

But the level of domineering is not as good as Real Madrid's.

This is the Champions League final after all.

Real Madrid fans, who have nine Champions League trophies, are naturally louder.

As long as we talk about the number of times we have won the Champions League, Real Madrid fans will come swaggering in.

Although Barcelona also has four Champions League trophies.

But they are on the same level as Bayern and Liverpool in terms of the number of championships they have won.

Behind Real Madrid and Milan.

The noise created by fans from both sides spread to the players' tunnel.

The little ball boy wearing a Real Madrid jersey seemed to be stunned by the scene in front of him.

He was stiff and a little at a loss.

"Theo, you're nervous, aren't you?"

Li Mo patted the caddy on the shoulder and smiled.

Theo Zidane, the son of Real Madrid coach Zidane.

Born on May 18, 2002.

He is 13 years old and is a student of Real Madrid Castilla Youth Academy.

13 years ago.

It was his father's extraordinary performance in the Champions League final that helped Real Madrid beat Bayer Leverkusen and win Real Madrid's ninth Champions League trophy.

"Yeah, Lee, I'm nervous."

Theo took a deep breath, looked up at Li Mo and said. ,

"Did you know that three days before you were born, your father helped Real Madrid win the Champions League?"

Li Mo said.

"So, you were born with the Champions League trophy. Maybe your father was able to win this championship because of the good luck you brought him." Li Mo said with a smile.

"So, you don't need to be nervous. I will take you onto the court later. Maybe you will bring the good luck of the year to me and to Real Madrid."

"Am I lucky?"

Little Theo was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

"Li, if I am lucky, then I hope you will have good luck in the morning, noon and night."

"Thanks."

In the familiar Champions League theme song.

Players from both sides lined up to enter the stadium.

For a while.

Fans on both sides couldn't wait to cheer for their respective players.

"Friends in the audience! Players from both sides have appeared!"

He Wei, the commentator of Longguo National TV, was sitting in the commentary box at the scene. He roared loudly and almost used all his strength to prevent his voice from being covered by the sounds of the scene.

This is the difference between on-site commentary and behind-the-scenes commentary.

In the rear studio, there are technical means to process the live sound, so that the commentator can easily overshadow the live sound in the picture presentation without speaking too loudly.

But on site.

Every word spoken by the narrator must be spoken very loudly.

Especially in a game like this, in a game like the Champions League final.

They have to shout at the top of their lungs. After a commentary, many commentators are afraid that their throats will be injured for several days. In football matches, not only the players are tired, but the commentators are also tired.

Of course.

The effect of on-site commentary is the best.

Because that's the only way.

Only the commentator can fully integrate into the game and let his emotions always accompany the development of the game.

The TV screen gave close-ups of players from both sides.

Li Mo's close-up is naturally indispensable.

In the camera.

Li Mo's expression is not serious. When he entered the stadium and stepped on the grass, he habitually bent down and stroked the grass on the spot.

As the players of both sides entered the stadium.

Line up.

Shake hands.

Exchange team flags.

Choose sides.

After all the procedures were completed.

The players of both sides returned to their respective positions and waited for the game to start.

During this time, the commentator was busy broadcasting the starting lineups of the two teams in this game.

Both sides had no reservations and sent out their strongest lineups.

On the Real Madrid side.

The starting goalkeeper Casillas, who is also the captain on the field.

On the defensive line, Carvajal is the right back, Marcelo is the left back, and the central defender combination is Ramos and Varane.

In the midfield, Xabi Alonso is pulled back, Kroos and Modric are the central midfielders.

On the forward line.

On the left is Bale, and on the right is Di Maria.

Center forward, Li Mo!

On the bench, Real Madrid has Pepe, Coentrao, Khedira, Isco and others.

On the Barcelona side.

They also use a 433 system.

Goalkeeper Ter Stegen.

Right back Alba, left back Alves, center back Pique and Mascherano.

In the midfield, there are Rakitic, Busquets and Iniesta.

On the front line, Messi is on the right, Neymar is on the left, and Suarez is in the middle.

On the bench are Xavi, Mathieu, Pedro, Rafinha and others.

After the players of both sides stood still.

With the whistle of the referee of this game, the famous referee Guneit Cakir from Turkey.

The game officially began!

Real Madrid kicked off the first game.

Maybe the two sides are really too familiar.

So.

There was no probing at all after the opening.

Real Madrid launched an attack directly.

Li Mo's header in the penalty area jumped high and slightly exceeded the crossbar!

This attack made Barcelona fans sweat.

But fortunately.

The ball belonged to Barcelona next.

Barcelona did not hesitate.

Their attack quickly advanced to the front of Real Madrid's penalty area.

Rakitic got rid of the ball in the backcourt and passed it to the wing.

In this game, both teams had a Croatian in the midfield.

On the Real Madrid side, it was Modric.

And on the Barcelona side, it was Rakitic.

Xavi is old.

So, this season, Rakitic became the main midfielder in Barcelona.

Whether he can successfully succeed Xavi is also the focus of people's attention.

At least, judging from the performance just now.

He is still very calm.

The Croatian midfielder passed another Croatian midfielder and passed the ball to Neymar's feet on the wing.

Neymar cut inwards, attracted the defense and passed the ball to the right.

Messi rushed up and shot with his left foot!

Amid the exclamations of Real Madrid fans.

The football drew an arc in the air, brushed the side net and went out of the bottom line with a swish.

There was a cry of surprise in the stands.

Some commentators thought the ball had gone in.

"Messi! Good shot!!"

"It was almost there!"

"Two minutes into the game, both sides completed a threatening shot!"

"This game is exciting!"

"The two teams know each other well, and I don't think anyone will try anything!"

"From the situation at the beginning of the game, offense is the main axis of both teams!"

Messi held his head in his hands, he stood there for a long time, and then turned and left.

In theory, this was not a very good opportunity.

But Messi was so regretful.

It can be seen.

He attaches great importance to this game. (End of this chapter)
