Chapter 138: Take back what you have lost
When night fell, the players boarded the bus to the Millennium Stadium.
Along the way, Manchester United fans cheered on the red bus, waving flags and standing on both sides of the road like two dragons escorting cars to the stadium.
When the gray-white roof of the Millennium Stadium begins to come into view, it means that there are less than two hours left before the start of the game.
In the square around the stadium, a large number of fans have already gathered!
As far as the eye can see, it is the Manchester United fans in the red jerseys who dominate the numbers.
Manchester United fans were drawn to the home team's dressing room so they could play in their red home shirts.
Barcelona drew the visitors, and their red and blue kits contrasted with United's home kits, so they had to wear their sky blue away kits – and people thought it was a Manchester derby.
Compared to the Manchester United fans who wore the uniform red shirt, the colour of the shirt of the Barcelona fans was not so uniform, some were the same colour as the one worn by Barcelona today, and some wore the red and blue home shirt.
When the Manchester United bus appeared in the square in front of the stadium, the red crowd surged.
The players sat in their seats and waved to the Manchester United fans outside the car window.
.......
The players stepped off the bus and then changed their gear at the urging of assistant coach Ryan Giggs and headed to the pitch to warm up.
If there's one in the United squad that's most familiar with the pitch, it's the assistant manager. Because Ryan Giggs has played in Wales for more than a decade, he is very familiar with the home of the Welsh team.
It's just that when he re-enters this game, he is no longer a player, but an assistant coach of Manchester United.
The warm-up was over soon and the players returned to the dressing room.
Carlo Ancelotti has everything laid out.
Once the players were all in, Ancelotti walked to the middle and spoke to everyone.
"It's the last game of the season, guys!"
'You all know what this game means, so I'm not going to talk nonsense here, let's keep it simple – we are familiar with the characteristics of Barcelona and they are definitely in possession. Just because they have more possession doesn't mean they can dominate, we have a solid defensive counterattack in this game, if they come up to attack, it's best, it's right in our hands, but if they also fall at the back, we must not be impatient! They're just waiting for us to go up and grab the ball! It doesn't matter how long the game goes, we have to be more patient than them, and the team that wins in the end will be the team with more patience! ”
.....
And the same thing, Enrique also said in the dressing room in Barcelona.
"Patience!! We have to be patient! ”
"Whoever is more patient will emerge victorious!"
The Barcelona players didn't think there was anything wrong with shrinking back to the back, Manchester United was too strong in the past two seasons, so even Barcelona didn't dare to take it lightly or dare to hold it up.
Messi is also full of solemnity, all along, his opponent has always been Ronaldo, but I don't know when Li Qingshan seems to have begun to squeeze into the ranks.
Against such a goal-scoring guy, no one can take it lightly.
......
The clamor of fans from both sides in the stands was heard, and the fans of both sides had already started fighting before the game even began.
On the commentary seat, commentators from various countries are beginning to debug the equipment, and some commentators have begun to enter the narration state!
"Gary!"
Andy Gray, who was also in the commentary box, asked Gary Neville on the other side.
"What do you think of this game!"
"I think it's going to be a very dull game! Both sides will be quite cautious! ”
"So... Zero to zero?! ”
"Haha, I didn't say that."
"Paul, do you think the Neymar incident had an impact on Barcelona?"
Sitting on the other side is another Manchester United legend, Paul Scholes.
"It's going to have some impact, but I don't think it's going to be too big!" Scholes tidied up the headset he was wearing on his ear and adjusted his sitting position.
"Because one side is the absolute main force, and the other side is the player who didn't even make the squad in this game, these two people have a conflict, and the impact on the game is very limited!"
"It's the Champions League final, the Barcelona players won't be distracted by such a thing, everyone will give it their all!"
Andy Gray nodded, and he invited two of United's biggest names to join him in the commentary.
After all, Manchester United is an English team, so Andy Gray will not think about anything neutral at this time.
...
Players from both sides met in the tunnel of the players.
Li Qingshan stood at the front of the team with the captain's armband, and at the front of the Barcelona team was Messi, who also wore the captain's armband!
Iniesta didn't start this game!
This was beyond Ancelotti's expectations, but it was not a big deal, and Iniesta's physical condition could not support him to play the whole game in such a high-intensity game, and putting Iniesta on the bench may also be a change of trick by Enrique.
When Iniesta didn't start, Messi wore the captain's armband for Barcelona.
Messi stood at the front of the players' tunnel, and he quietly raised his eyes to look at Li Qingshan.
The guy was so tall that it had to make Messi hold his head high to see his face.
Messi and Li Qingshan, two diametrically opposed players.
One wins with dexterity, the other with strength.
A foot skill is unparalleled in the world, and a header kung fu is unmatched.
One smart, the other rugged.
There are so many differences between the two men, but they have the same advantage in one thing - they are both very good at scoring goals!
Messi's goals have dropped a bit this season, but he has also surpassed 40.
And Messi's goal decline is not because Messi is not in good shape, but in the case of losing Xavi and Iniesta, Messi still needs to participate in the task of organizing the midfield, so his goals will inevitably decline compared with previous seasons.
But fortunately, Barcelona also have Suarez and Neymar, who are also two world superstar level players, who share the task of scoring many goals for Messi.
Compared with Messi, Li Qingshan's helpers are inferior.
Li Qingshan's eyes are staring ahead, two years ago, it was Messi and his Barcelona who defeated Li Qingshan and won the Champions League final!
That failure made Li Qingshan unforgettable, and this time, he and Messi once again stood on the stage of the Champions League final, he wanted to defeat Messi head-on and take back what he lost!
