Chapter 238: Attack, Red Devil!

By the time the players warmed up on the field, the seats at the Meazza Stadium were already full.

Tian Shaohua finished his work and sat in the media seat.

The seats in the media gallery were also packed. Most of the reporters are from Germany or England, and reporters from other European countries are only those big newspapers who send teams to report on the spot, and there are quite a few Chinese media reporters, but they are on the other side of the media table, and Tian Shaohua has not had the opportunity to contact reporters from China.

She looked at Li Qingshan, who was warming up on the field, this big boy who was still a little shy, when he arrived on the court, he was full of general demeanor with every move.

His face was expressionless, but everyone could feel his aura.

This is the aura that belongs to a superstar, not angry and self-assured.

The work of the reporters in the media gallery has also come to an end, and they have time to start chatting.

Tian Shaohua was in the gathering area of a group of German journalists, and she could clearly hear what the Germans were talking about.

Tian Shaohua is a language genius, in addition to Spanish, she also taught herself German, and she also knows some Italian.

Any small talk often starts with the weather.

"There are a lot of clouds today, and I hope it doesn't rain...," said a bearded German journalist.

"I hope so, if the rain fights, it will not be too beneficial to Bayern Munich, the opponent's high-altitude ball is very powerful, especially that Li Qingshan." Another German said.

Hearing the other party mention Li Qingshan, Tian Shaohua couldn't help but prick up his ears and listen.

'No matter what happens, Bayern Munich have enough experience to deal with it, and Bayern Munich have a lot more experience in the Champions League than Manchester United. The bearded man looks very confident.

Tournament experience does have a big impact on a team, and Bayern Munich's group of players has much more experience in the Champions League as a whole than Manchester United's group of players.

In Manchester United's lineup, the players who have played the Champions League final on behalf of Manchester United are currently only Carrick, Rooney, Nani, Valencia and other players, they are already the current Manchester United rotation players, Manchester United's main lineup, Di Maria, Li Qingshan, Mata have experience in the Champions League final, but they are all on behalf of different teams.

Di Maria reached the Champions League final for Real Madrid in the 2013-2014 season, when Real Madrid's opponent was Atletico Madrid, who had Li Qingshan, but in the end it was Atletico Madrid who won the first European championship trophy of his career.

Juan Mata reached the Champions League final for Chelsea in the 2011-2012 season, when they faced Bayern Munich, and Chelsea won their first Champions League trophy on penalties.

As for Manchester United, they have not reached the Champions League final, not even the semi-finals, since they lost to Barcelona in the final in the 2010-2011 season.

At present, this group of players has zero experience playing together in the Champions League final!!

And Bayern Munich's side.

The core players of the Bundesliga giants in recent seasons are very stable, Bayern Munich has a huge attraction to players from other teams in the Bundesliga, and in recent years, through frequent poaching of other Bundesliga rivals, Bayern Munich has been upgrading and replacing personnel step by step, and has been at the top level in Europe in terms of strength.

Bayern Munich's competitiveness in the Champions League is indeed quite strong, and its strongest period was in the mid-1970s, when it won the European Champions Cup three times in a row (1974-1976) under the leadership of Franz Beckenbauer. Bayern Munich have reached the final of the Champions League 10 times, most recently in 2013, and won their fifth trophy in the club's history (1973-1974, 1974-1975, 1975-1976, 2000-2001, 2012-2013).

In the past two seasons, although Bayern Munich did not reach the Champions League final, they also reached the semi-finals, and their results in the Champions League are very stable.

And this season, they also eliminated many strong players along the way to the finals.

In terms of Champions League experience, Bayern Munich is undoubtedly better than Manchester United now.

Therefore, before the game, some media specifically pointed out this point, believing that Manchester United is likely to suffer in the experience of the tournament in this game.

Tian Shaohua listened, but he didn't worry about his friend.

Li Qingshan, who warmed up on the field, shot the ball into the goal with one kick, and his condition looked very good.

With this man in place, Manchester United will not lack the aura of the Champions League final.

This is a man who has played in the Champions League final three years in a row!!

........

The clouds in the sky have Guardiola a little worried.

He first touched his shiny bald head, then rubbed his hands.

His personal assistant, Manuel Estiat, knew what his boss was worried about writing: "I've checked the weather, at least for two hours, it's unlikely to rain around the pitch, we don't have to worry too much about the rain fight." ”

Guardiola nodded, but he looked up at some dense cloud layers, still a little uneasy. After all, if it rains heavily on the pitch, it will be difficult for Bayern Munich to play the short-pass ground coordination that Bayern Munich is accustomed to. If you play against Manchester United, Bayern Munich has no chance of winning.

I hope the weather forecast is more accurate this time.

Pep Guardiola thought to himself.

He went on the field again to get a feel for the turf of the Meazza Stadium. An hour earlier, the pitch had been watered and the turf had been trimmed, and Guardiola walked around the pitch and was satisfied with the softness of the turf.

As a successful coach, Pep Guardiola cares about the details.

Anything that affects the game, he thinks about it.

This game was his last game for Bayern Munich.

If this game is won, then Guardiola can turn around and leave Munich with a glorious victory.

To be able to win the treble is quite an achievement. This means that Guardiola has won the final victory in the war against the German media and the conservative forces within Bayern Munich.

The German media has attacked Guardiola for almost three seasons for his tactics, his team management, and the relationship between Guardiola and Bayern Munich's veterans!

Indeed, Pep Guardiola in Germany is having a very uncomfortable time, especially his relationship with some of the staff of the Bayern Munich team is even more strained.

Especially his relationship with the team's former team doctor.

In 2015, Bayern Munich's "German miracle doctor" Wolfaert resigned and left because of conflicts with Guardiola.

Even after leaving, Walfaert described Pep Guardiola as "a man who lacks self-confidence, who is so afraid of losing his power and prestige that he even demands that others be at his disposal".

There were a number of arguments between the two in 2015, with Pep Guardiola demanding that Wohlfath give up his own clinic and appear more in Bayern Munich's squad. But it's clear that Walfaert has a plan of his own: "In Guardiola's eyes, I'm a character who can only take orders, and I should be at his disposal at all times." ”

In the run-up to the 2015 season, Bayern Munich was plagued by injuries. Pep Guardiola has had a big conflict with Wohlfat because of Thiago's treatment. In the subsequent game, because of Benardia's injury, Guardiola, who lost control, surprisingly humiliated Bayern Munich's medical team with applause, which also made the contradictions between the two sides completely open.

And that's just a microcosm of Pep Guardiola's work in Germany. The relationship between the Spaniards and the Germans is so bad that even many Bayern Munich fans have turned against Pep Guardiola under the influence of the media.

Pep Guardiola is definitely a man of arrogance and he does not tolerate his own failures.

Even if he leaves, he must win this battle before leaving.

I, Pep Guardiola, didn't leave because I failed, on the contrary, it was you Germans, you German media, who couldn't appreciate the most beautiful football in the world.

After this game, I will leave Bayern Munich with a fantastic season, and I, Pep Guardiola, will go and leave with glory and go to England to create another brilliant team!!

I've had enough of you stupid and arrogant Germans, Guardiola thought.

......

Carlo Ancelotti was expecting rain, but the clouds over the pitch didn't seem to be enough for a heavy rain.

The Italian coach did not appear on the pitchside like Pep Guardiola.

Carlo Ancelotti is all too familiar with this stadium.

The Meazza Stadium, for AC Milan, is also their San Siro Stadium.

This is a stadium shared by both teams in the city of Milan.

In the home dressing room of the stadium, Carlo Ancelotti is all too familiar with everything here.

For Carlo Ancelotti, directing the game at this stadium is very familiar to him.

This is his home turf.

At this stadium, Carlo Ancelotti has led AC Milan to numerous honours.

They have won Serie A, won the Champions League – and two of AC Milan's seven Champions League stewards belong to Carlo Ancelotti and his AC Milan.

Ancelotti looked at the things in the dressing room with some nostalgia, from the large elm table in the middle, to the wardrobe painted with yellow paint around it, the white light of the crystal chandelier on the ceiling, and the huge tactical board at the door, all of which were no different from those days.

Winning the Champions League at this stadium will be a wonderful moment for Carlo Ancelotti.

For Carlo Ancelotti, there are not many tactical changes that can be made in this game, and Manchester United's main squad is relatively fixed this season, and he will not easily change the tactical routine that Manchester United have been using this season.

Although the deployment of three midfielders made many media criticize Ancelotti's conservatism, Ancelotti did not care.

Because the conservative media criticizing Manchester United tend to selectively ignore Manchester United's strong attacking firepower, Li Qingshan's gun barrel is hot this season, which is why Ancelotti dares to choose more defensive players in the squad.

Manchester United's attack does not need to rely on numbers, and with Li Qingshan in the box, no team can ignore him, and that is the role of having a super centre-forward.

And of course this game is no different!

Carlo Ancelotti doesn't care about the media's conservative criticism of him.

If sending ten defenders can win this final, then Ancelotti will not hesitate.

There's nothing more wonderful than winning a championship.

Carlo Ancelotti stood in the dressing room squinting, enjoying the rare silence before the game.

At this time, the close pace outside the window woke Ancelotti from a state of self-appreciation.

The players have warmed up and are back in the dressing room.

And Carlo Ancelotti is also going to make final preparations for this game.

"Alright guys, this game is about to start!" Ancelotti clapped his palms and said loudly.

The players held their breath and turned to look at their manager.

"Without a doubt, this is our biggest game of the season!!"

Ancelotti said with a shake of his fist and a shudder of his chin.

"This game is more important than any league game, because the winner of this game will be the king of Europe this season!!

'Some people say we won't have a bit of motivation after we win the league and the FA Cup.....

"It was also said that we were not as experienced as Bayern Munich in the Champions League final......"

Carlo Ancelotti was almost on the verge of roaring, and he said it so loudly that his words were still echoing throughout the dressing room after he had finished speaking.

"To hell with those words, I know that you are so hungry for the European title, you are definitely not players who are satisfied with just winning the English league, Manchester United is aiming for the Champions League!!"

Ancelotti threw his fist down as if he was smashing into something.

"To be honest, I'm only worried about whether you're going to feel relaxed and proud after winning so many games, and whether you're not paying enough attention to Bayern Munich."

"It's a strong opponent, if we don't put in 100 percent, then we must be the ones who lose the game in the end!!"

Ancelotti's tone became stern.

'It's been a fantastic season, we've won the league and we've won the FA Cup. Now, we still have a chance to win the Champions League!! ”

"Now, we're one step away from a perfect season!! Don't leave a single regret this season. Only in this way, after a few years, even after you retire, everything this season can still bring you glory and pride. ”

"We've overcome all the strong enemies and finally come here. Today, a win over the opponent in front of you would have a season that we can look back on in our lifetimes!! This opportunity is right in front of you, don't let it slip away like that!!! ”

"Victory is ours !!" Some players stood up excitedly.

'Victory belongs to Manchester United!!!! The players shouted!
