Super Marshal
Chapter 919 The First Legend
"All fans in front of the TV, welcome to watch the live broadcast of the UEFA Champions League final in the 2010-2011 season. This is Wembley Stadium in London, the capital of the United Kingdom."
"You can see from our live TV footage that the venue is already crowded. More than 80,000 fans have gathered in this stadium. What is about to be staged will be a peak match between the two teams that have been called the best in the past few years. A battle between the best teams in Europe.”
"The scene is also full of excitement. Premier League fans have always been known for their fiery passion, and fans in Catalonia are equally enthusiastic. The confrontation between the two forces at Wembley Stadium can be described as sparks flying."
"Manchester City, led by Gao Han, has been the most impressive team in European football in the past two seasons. They have won almost all the championship honors they can win, and Guardiola's Barcelona also performed well. Everyone feels that This season’s Dream Team 3 is even better and plays more efficiently, but they lost to Mourinho in the Copa del Rey this season.”
"Both teams walked into Wembley Stadium with multiple championship trophies and competed for this crown of supreme glory."
"Judging from what we learned before the game, Gao Han should still play with the full lineup in this game, and he should still stick to the 3,43, tactical play, and Guardiola should also continue to use the 4,33," he said. formation, but many professionals speculate that Puyol may be used at left back to replace Abidal, who is recovering from a serious illness."
"We all know that Abidal just underwent liver tumor surgery a few months ago. The operation was successful and he recovered quickly, but can he return to his best condition and cope with this kind of peak match? Manchester City's powerful attack is also a puzzling question."
"If Puyol is really assigned to play left back, then the Argentine central defender Milito will replace Puyol, but this player's performance this season is not reassuring, which is also a major rumor that came out before the game. suspense."
"Judging from the bench lineup, Manchester City is indeed better. Gao Han has been arranging rotations throughout the season and has been very successful."
"It is worth mentioning that this is the fourth time Gao Han has entered the Champions League final in his career. He has won the championship three times before. This allows him to tie the legendary record in the history of European football. If he wins again tonight , then he will become the first legendary player in European football in more than 100 years of history."
"But in this game, his opponent is very good. Guardiola is the legendary captain of Barcelona, but he also has a very special identity. He was once a player under Gao Han and served as an assistant in Gao Han's coaching team after retiring. , the two are still best friends in real life and have a very close relationship with each other."
"As early as yesterday's pre-match press conference, Gao Han jokingly said that the most important thing for them in this game is not the championship at all, because their friendship has reached a level enough to share the St. Bradford Cup. "
"Guardiola also said at the press conference that for him, Gao Han is not only his best friend, but also the most respectable teacher. This final is a test for him, and he hopes to show better results. He had better results before, but he doesn’t care about the championship.”
"After all, these two most popular coaches in European football are already the owners of multiple Champions League titles. Gao Han has three and Guardiola has two. They have won the Champions League in the past four years."
"This also makes people full of expectations for this final. They want to see whether Gao Han, the teacher, is better, or Guardiola, the student."

Gao Han saw off the players, prepared his things, walked out of the locker room and walked towards the exit of the player tunnel. He saw Guardiola from a distance, and the Barcelona coach also quickly saw him.
"Hi, Pep."
"Hello, Gao Han."
Two friends who had not seen each other for a long time met and hugged each other warmly.
This scene was also captured by the live broadcast camera lurking in the player tunnel, and soon appeared on the big screen outside the stadium, making more than 80,000 fans in the entire stadium excited, and everyone cheered loudly.
But the two people in the tunnel quickly noticed the presence of the camera, and immediately raised their hands towards the filming crew, indicating that they wanted some space for personal communication. The filming crew also politely expressed their understanding and immediately shifted the camera to the players.
"How is it? How do you feel?" Gao Han and Guardiola walked side by side to the exit of the player tunnel and asked with a smile.
Guardiola shrugged, "You know, even though we have played several times, I am still very nervous every time."
"Me too, I gradually got used to it."
No one would complain that there are too many championship trophies, especially for such a supreme honor as the Champions League championship. It is a reward that all football people are eager for, and the excitement it brings far exceeds money.
Gao Han has won three, and Guardiola has won two. Both of them are among the current head coaches with the most Champions League titles in European football. At their level, the Champions League final is often more than just a victory. Lost.
"You played Arsenal away from home and Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey final. These two games gave me great stimulation. If you haven't figured out how to make up for the team's holes, then this game will probably be enough for you. ." Gao Han chuckled.
Whether it was Arsenal or Real Madrid, they did not retreat in the two games, but took the initiative.
The tactical concepts of Gao Han and Guardiola are very similar, and the tactical systems of Manchester City and Barcelona are also very similar, which makes everyone look forward to seeing the peak showdown between the two teams.
"To be honest, there are many teams who have the same idea as you, but whether it can become a reality depends on your performance on the court. Your offense is indeed strong enough, but your defense may not be solid, right? ?”
"Confrontation?" Gao Han asked.
"Attack!" Guardiola replied affirmatively.
Both of them stretched out their right hands, clenched them together, and laughed.
"I'm telling you, no one wins all the time, including me."
Guardiola listened carefully, but did not understand what Gao Han meant.
"If I can choose, I would rather be the first person to defeat me than anyone else, so come on, don't let me down!" Gao Han patted Guardiola's shoulder hard and smiled. He walked out of the players tunnel first.
At this moment, he had already made up his mind that he would never use skill cards in this game.
He has to rely on the most authentic level to defeat Guardiola and his Barcelona.
It's like he has defeated Ferguson, Mourinho, Wenger and others this season.
He must rely on his own ability to win a Champions League!
Behind him, Guardiola was suddenly very moved. He understood that this was Gao Han's expectations and encouragement for him.
"Don't worry, you will lose!" Guardiola's eyes became sharp.
Defeating Gao Han is more tempting to him than the Champions League trophy.

…………
In the presence of referee Casse, Puyol beat Xavi Alonso to give Barcelona possession.
For two teams that equally value possession of the ball, there is undoubtedly a certain advantage in kicking off first.
Manchester City's starting lineup in this game was no surprise. The goalkeeper was Cech, and the three defenders were Kompany, Xavi Martinez and Mascherano. Xabi Alonso was behind, and David Silva and Modric are in the center, Kaka comes forward, and Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema and Sanchez form a trident.
Players such as Gareth Bale, Sturridge, Milner and Vertonghen, who have made many substitute appearances this season, are all sitting on the bench, waiting for the head coach to call at any time.
Barcelona also used their main players. The goalkeeper is Valdes, the defense is Abidal, Pique, Puyol and Alves. Busquets is behind, Iniesta and Xavi are in the middle, Pedro, Ibrahimovic and Messi form a trident.
Guardiola finally chose the left-footed Abidal instead of Puyol as Gao Han expected.
The two sides played a fast tempo immediately after the opening. Barcelona took the lead and passed the ball directly to the backcourt, passing the ball continuously.
Manchester City pressed forward aggressively and pursued the ball at Barcelona's feet.
Both sides seemed to have no reservations and wanted to firmly seize the initiative from the beginning.
After several consecutive passes, Barcelona sent the ball to Alves on the right.
The Brazilian right back dribbled the ball into Manchester City's half on the right, but was successfully intercepted by David Silva, who was returning to defense in a one-on-one defensive situation, and the ball rolled towards the center circle.
The two teams went back and forth to grab the ball in the center circle. In the end, Xavi Alonso sent the ball forward and directly to Benzema's feet, but the French forward stopped the ball to Kaká, and the Brazilian midfielder A direct kick to the left.
Cristiano Ronaldo took the ball and faced Alves who was returning to defense. He directly cut inside with the ball and passed the ball back to the left with his heel. David Silva followed up with the curve ball with his left foot. But Benzema failed to catch up in the penalty area, and the ball was picked up by Valdes.
Manchester City's first attack broke into Barcelona's penalty area, but failed to pose a threat.
Barcelona quickly organized a counterattack. Valdes wanted to throw the ball, but Manchester City's trident was firmly in front.
This made the entire Wembley Stadium fans very happy. The two sides were going to fight without reservation.
Valdes tossed the ball to Puyol, but the latter was tangled up by Cristiano Ronaldo and was forced to drive forward to find Messi, but he hit it out of bounds.
But just when Barcelona was worried that Manchester City was about to launch a fast break again, the foul ball was thrown directly into the backcourt. Javi Martinez raised his hand to signal the players to slow down, and the three central defenders kicked back and forth in the backcourt.
This immediately made Barcelona, who originally retreated to half-court, feel a little depressed, and the three players in the frontcourt had to press again.
Barcelona's frontcourt press was not papery either. It soon forced Manchester City to make mistakes when passing the ball forward, and Barcelona took the opportunity to counterattack.
After Iniesta retreated to receive the pass from his teammate, he turned around and started dribbling. Using his skillful ball control skills, he just took the ball out between Modric and Mascherano and passed it to Messi's feet. .
Messi got the ball in the middle, faced Xavi Alonso's pressing step by step, and took the ball directly. After passing Xavi Alonso, he was entangled by Xavi Martinez and accelerated once During the breakthrough, the ball was too big. Kompany cleared the ball before Ibrahimovic and kicked it directly into the frontcourt.
This time it's Manchester City's turn to fight back!
The two teams staged a fast-paced offensive battle in the stadium. They passed and received the ball with each other and cooperated extremely skillfully. The efficiency was very high, making the scene very smooth and beautiful. More than 80,000 fans were also present at the beginning of the game. Entering Gaochao directly, I was very excited.
