Chapter 987 - Still Popular?

Because of the banner I saw at the airport before the game, the revisit to the old place did not bring glory a happy mood.

He didn't enjoy being reunited with his old friends at all, because he had come to send them to hell himself.

It's really hard to laugh at.

But despite this, Rongguang has never wavered in his heart, and feels that he should let go of the water and let Bayern Munich qualify from the group.

He never had such an idea.

The night before the game, Glory received a call from Ribery.

"I watched the news, Rong. But I may be going to disappoint you, I'm not here to beg you for mercy. Ribery said on the other end of the phone.

Rongguang breathed a sigh of relief: "I've never thought about releasing water. ”

He was really worried that a friend like Ribery would call as a lobbyist.

But fortunately, by now, he had gone straight to Ribery's phone alone, and the others probably didn't even call him to avoid suspicion. If you don't call Rongguang at this time, Rongguang won't be angry, but will feel that the other party is considerate - so as not to make it difficult for you.

"Of course, if you release the water, it's not you. At least not the Rong we are familiar with. Do your best, Hon, and return to this game at the Allianz Arena, you must do your best. And we're going to do everything we can to beat you here. Bayern Munich must participate in the knockout rounds of the Champions League, but this opportunity does not depend on anyone's handout. ”

Ribery's words were not high-pitched, but they were sonorous.

"Yes, Frank. Let's have a good fight tomorrow. Rong Guang laughed, it was the first time he had laughed since he arrived in Munich today.

"Oh, I almost forgot. I called you to tell you that after the game, we will have a meal together, just a few of us. This time, don't ask anyone to lose, just ask us, we are the host. ”

Glory happily accepted Ribery's invitation.

While Glory and Ribery were on the phone, in the room of head coach Rafael Benitez, his two assistant coaches were discussing Glory with him.

"I've noticed that since I saw those Bayern Munich fans at the airport, Rong's feelings aren't quite right......" said assistant coach Mark Bowen.

Well, he suddenly fell silent, and I watched him on the bus and noticed that he was always wandering and out of place with the people around him. And I don't think I've ever seen him smile......" Mauricio Pellegrino, another assistant coach, also nodded.

"Obviously, the banners played by the Bayern Munich fans affected him." Benitez said.

Everyone knew what it was, because they were all there.

"Will that affect his form in the game tomorrow?" Mark Bowen asked. That's what he cares about the most.

"I don't know...... Pellegrino shook his head. But it doesn't matter if it affects it, right? Anyway, we're all qualified, and even if we lose this game, it won't affect us......"

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Benitez.

"Probably not."

"Huh?" Pellegrino looked at Benitez strangely.

"It shouldn't affect Rong's state." Benitez repeated. "And Mauricio is right, we have no desire for this game, so it doesn't matter."

After Ribery hung up the phone, Ram, who was beside him, suddenly asked, "How's it going?" What did Rong say? ”

He and Schweinsteiger sat next to Ribery all the time, but neither said anything when Ribery and Glory were on the phone.

"He said he wouldn't release the water."

"Look, that's what I'm saying." Schweinsteiger turned his head and stretched out his hand to Ram. "That's him."

"So it's not really going to be a good game for us......" Rahm muttered, and then he sighed. Alas, I really don't want to be an enemy of this man......"

"Who can blame this? You dare to say Uli's, don't you? Schweinsteiger snorted.

"Don't think about it so much, let's just try to beat Rong. And the other Manchester City players may not be willing to fight with us, as long as we put on a desperate posture, maybe the other Manchester City players will be embarrassed. Ribery analyzed. We don't have to beat Young, we just have to beat Manchester City. ”

The next day, at the Allianz Arena, more than two hours before the start of the game, the square outside the stadium was crowded.

Most of them were Bayern Munich fans, holding all sorts of slogans, banners, and showing them to the camera cameras.

It's all about cheering for Bayern Munich.

Although many of these fans hate Uli Hoeness for letting go of glory, they have not forgotten which team they are fans of, and at such times they naturally want to cheer for the team they support.

Moreover, for Manchester City, they have already qualified early, even if they lose this game, there is nothing to lose. Therefore, Bayern Munich fans will not have the slightest psychological burden to beat Manchester City, where glory is located.

This is just like those Bayern Munich fans who went to the airport to plead euphemistically to Rongguang, and even felt that it was normal for Rongguang to lose this game, the best of both worlds, there was such a good thing, how could Rongguang not do it? not only took care of the feelings of the former club fans, but also did no damage to the current team he played for...... Why not?

Of course, the airport banner appeared outside the Allianz Arena once again and became the focus of media attention as soon as it appeared.

Camera reporters with cameras and cameras on their shoulders rushed up one after another.

Shoot at this banner.

And among the vast sea of Bayern Munich fans, Manchester City fans cherish like endangered wild animals.

They were also very low-key and did not wave Manchester City's flags and slogans to steal the show with Bayern Munich fans. These Manchester City fans, who had come from England to gather and just quietly watch the avid Bayern Munich fans, like tourists, and only their Manchester City shirts could make everyone know who they were.

The fans were surrounded by a group of German police, who came to protect the Manchester City fans, but also to watch out for the Manchester City fans.

In world football, both England and Germany football hooligans are very famous, and this cannot be blamed on the German police for thinking too much, they must guard against a possible danger.

The City fans were separated from the Bayern Munich fans by the police, and they entered through a tunnel to the stands where they were to avoid contact with other Bayern Munich fans.

After all, in this crucial battle of life and death for Bayern Munich, Bayern Munich fans are very excited and prone to conflicts.

In case of a conflict between the fans of the two sides, hooligans against hooligans, isn't that going to cause a human life?

※※※

While the players of both teams were waiting in the tunnel to play, the live broadcast began to broadcast the names of both sides for the match.

The first to report were Manchester City's players.

The Bayern Munich fans in the stands did not boo, except for this game, Manchester City and Bayern Munich had little to do with each other, and there was no vendetta between the two sides.

So even though Manchester City are Bayern Munich's opponents in this do-or-die battle, Bayern Munich fans have not lost their minds to send boos to Manchester City - of course, no one can guarantee what happens in the middle of the game.

When the name of Glory was shouted on the live broadcast, there was a huge cheer from the stands at the Allianz Arena.

The cheers were comparable to those of Bayern Munich's players when their names were called.

In the passageway, Joe Hart said to the glory standing in front of him, "Captain, you are so welcome here!" ”

He wanted to compliment the glory.

However, Rongguang's reaction was not strong, he just smiled and did not say anything.

He doesn't know if these Bayern Munich fans really remember him, or if it's just to curry favor with him and make him show mercy in the game for a while......

"Listen to this voice, the fans of Bayern Munich still love Rong!" Marcel Leif said emotionally.

And at this time, the TV broadcast also cut to the picture in the passage, giving Rongguang a close-up.

When the Bayern Munich fans cheered for him, Rong Guang in the camera was expressionless and looked very stern.

Maybe...... It's too strict.

It's as if there's a deliberate alienation to keep it objective.

Afterwards, the live broadcast began to broadcast the home team's starting line-up.

Every Bayern Munich player gets a huge cheer, even on par with glory. Some of these people may not normally be treated like this, but this game is different. Bayern Munich fans want to encourage the team in a way that makes them feel like they are playing alongside them.

At this time, even if you usually have a lot of dissatisfaction with the team, it is not the time to vent.

Let's unite as one and get over this difficulty first.

If there is any problem, you have to wait until the end of the game.

In any case, Bayern Munich must qualify for the knockout stage of the Champions League!

If such a team has not even made it past the group stage of the Champions League, it is really ...... What a shame!

Glory listened carefully, and Frank Ribery was cheered a little louder, and it seemed that he was much better mixed in this team than before, and he was relieved.

Then he gathered his mind and waited to appear.

When the shouting over the Allianz Arena became quieter, the referee walked out of the referee's lounge with his three members of the refereeing team, walked between the two teams, and came to the front of the team with the football in his arms.

"Gentlemen, please keep up." He said to the players on both sides.

He then took the lead on the pitch, while players from both teams followed him and moved outward.

At the same time, the theme song of the Champions League sounded on the live radio.

Players from both sides marched into the pitch to the chorus of the official UEFA languages, while the stands at the Allianz Arena resounded with loud cheers.

The game is finally about to begin!
