Chapter 47 Final kickoff

The huge Real Madrid logo and the silhouette of the Champions League appeared in the stands at the Bernabeu, which was composed of the cardboard in their hands. Every Real Madrid fan who found his seat would get such a piece of cardboard of different colors. They just need to lift the cardboard up to form a huge picture covering the entire audience. The atmosphere created in this way was extremely fanatical, and the confidence of Real Madrid in the Bernabeu is already full of confidence.

Poor Nottingham Forest doesn't have such treatment. Who made them a real "away game" this time?

The Nottingham Forests were wearing red jerseys and huddled in the corner of the stands, surrounded by white squares, and Real Madrid's team songs were also played on the radio on the court.

This is a scene that cannot be seen in the European Champions League finals. Real Madrid has made full use of their home court advantages and they have a good relationship with UEFA senior executives. Platini has accused them of their behavior that "unlike the spirit of fair competition."

"Long live! Madrid!! Long live! Madrid!!"

Seventy thousand people roared at the same time, making a deafening loud noise. Amid such continuous roars, the players on both sides appeared.

In fact, the players on both sides have been waiting in the corridor of Bernabeu for several minutes. The corridor of Bernabeu is different from the city stadium. There is a wall made of iron fences in the corridor that separates the two teams. The players on both sides can see each other through the hollow mesh, but cannot make further physical contact.

Next to Gago is Higuain, two Argentines are talking. They were once a stalemate in China, but later they became members of Real Madrid at the same time. The next two embarked on two completely different paths. Higuain quickly matured and seized the opportunity to firmly take the position of Real Madrid's main striker. Gago was unable to be reused because of the crowded midfield of Real Madrid. Finally, he left the Bernabeu and came to Nottingham Forest. They must have something to talk about together.

But in fact, the two of them were not as intimate as people thought.  The two of them just chatted for a few simple words, and Gago didn't say anything.

He used to be very familiar with this corridor. He used to be standing on the other side in white.

Now he is standing opposite the white man in red.

This is his first time returning to the Bernabeu Stadium since he became a member of Nottingham Forest. He doesn't know how the Bernabeu fans will treat him when he gets the ball on the court. He has seen many players who once belonged to a team return to their home team after leaving the team and returning to their home team's home game.

He was already mentally prepared that way.

Higuain saw Gago's concerns through the wall. He smiled and said to Gago in Spanish: "Don't worry, the people here will not treat you that much. After all, the team you join is not Barcelona or Atletico Madrid."

Gago glanced at Higuain and disregarded his words: "What if we lead you or win you?"

Higuain almost laughed out loud: "Fernando, to be honest, I don't think you can defeat us."

Looking at this former teammate who was proud of his youth in Real Madrid, Gago rolled his eyes: "Then let's wait and see."

After talking to Higuain, he suddenly realized that he was not worried about what kind of treatment he would be treated during the game in a while. Because he figured it out. He is no longer a member of Real Madrid today. So since that is the case, what does it have to do with them?

Ribery is not as worried as Gago, because he is playing at home now. If he returns to the city court, then he will be booed overwhelmed, and there is no doubt about this. Of course, he knows what kind of betrayal it is when his boss has a heart attack.

But for him.    That was the only chance.   The only chance that the king would lose control.

Because the time for leaving was not right, he doesn't chat with his former teammates of the Forest team now, and no Forest team player will come to him on his own initiative. He hid in the Real Madrid team, lowered his head and remained silent.

Through a wall, there is former teammate Pepe.

Pepe looked down on Ribery's departure. You should know that when both the boss and the team were in the most difficult time, none of them chose to leave, only Ribery became a deserter. He glanced at Ribery squintedly. Then he suddenly leaned his head up and smiled at the Frenchman: "Frank, be careful during the game."

Sergio Ramos, who was standing in front of Ribery, heard Pepe's words. Although he couldn't understand, he felt that Pepe's smile was unfriendly, so he turned around and glared at Pepe.

Pepe was in English. Cristiano Ronaldo understood it and he fired back: "Hey. Boy. Pay attention to your words. Do you want to scare us?" When he was at Manchester United, he was out of control with the Forests. He did not meet the two teams of Real Madrid, but in today's environment, the feeling of a mortal enemy came back to his heart.

Pepe was not outdone, he grinned and smiled at Ronaldo: "Portuguese, you are not my target." He turned his head to the captain George Wood, who stood in front of the team, turned his back to everyone, and said nothing.

Of course, Ronaldo knew what he meant. He was not afraid of heaven or earth, but he was still a little afraid of George Wood. He stopped talking.

Bell came out to be a peacemaker: "Okay, don't be excited. It's not good for us to argue now. The boss will definitely scold you when he knows it." He told Pepe, he knew that Pepe looked down on Ribery and Bentner. This person is so clear about love and hate. In order to ease the atmosphere, he took the initiative to say hello to Ribery: "Hello, Frank."

Pepe still looked at Ribery and smiled, with a sarcasm in his smile.

Ribery smiled at Bell, feeling helpless: "Hello... Bell." He wanted to say "little monkey", but when he thought of his current identity, he changed it to "Bell". This seemed a bit alien, but he would not be fooled by others.

Higuain noticed the small riot in front of the team, and he leaned his head and asked, "What happened?"

Gago also looked up and realized that Pepe was like that: "Pepe must be accusing Ribery..."

"Accusation? Why?"

"Ribery chose to leave Nottingham Forest. And join Real Madrid... don't you know this?"

"Hey, what big thing do I think of? Isn't this kind of thing normal in football? A player leaves one team and joins another team... What's the point of holding a grudge for such a thing?"

Gago joined the team later and didn't know much about the past, so he shook his head: "I don't know either. Maybe this is the forest style..." He had seen the "treatment" that Bentner received when he returned to the city court. In addition to not throwing pig heads down, the Forest fans scolded Bentner in different ways in the stands, and wrote songs on the spot to humiliate the "traitor" who betrayed the team at the time.

"English teams seem to be like this..." he added.

Higuain smiled and shook his head. He was a little disdainful. “I asked why you were so worried? It turns out that you have seen many times in England. Don’t worry, this is Spain and this is Real Madrid.”

Pepe continued to stare at Ribery and smile.

Ribery had to pretend that he hadn't seen him, and then he simply closed his eyes.

Bale poked Pepe in the back: "Enough, Pepe. Focus on the game!"

George Wood turned around and Pepe then withdrew his eyes.

"It's time to play." Wood said to the people behind him.

Real Madrid players and Nottingham Forest players appeared at the same time, and huge cheers sounded. The home team fans cheered for Real Madrid and the away team fans cheered for Forests. The cheers lasted only a short time. When the live broadcast began to broadcast the list of both sides' lineups, the names of Real Madrid players were called, which were warm applause and cheers. When the names of Forest players were reported, sporadic boo sounded in the stands.

Tang En looked up at the stands around him, and he grinned and smiled: "It surprised me, there was only such a scattered booing."

"We are not Barcelona." Chris Lak said from the side.

"It's not Atletico Madrid," Eastwood added.

"Ha!" Tang En laughed out loud. "It's okay, they will soon think that we hate more than both of the above teams."

Players from both sides lined up to enter the court, stood together to accept the reporter's photos, and then the away team players took the initiative to shake hands with the referee and the home team players. The players on both sides separated, the captain exchanged team flags, guessed coins and picked the side.

Casillas is the current captain of Real Madrid. He lost to Wood in guessing coins, and Wood got the right to pick the side. Casillas got the right to kick the ball.

Seeing this result, Tang En shook his head gently below: "I want to kick off the ball... Let the opponent control the ball first is not conducive to our tactical arrangement."

"Just five minutes before they attacked. "Chris Lack felt nothing, but the ball would eventually return to the foot of the Forests.

"You are very confident." Don't turn his head and laughed at Chris Lak next to him.

"After following you for a long time, if you are not confident, you will not be able to keep up with you." Chris Lak also smiled.

The feeling of tacit understanding arises from the hearts of the two of them.

Chris Lack did not hear Donne laughing heartily, but Donne nodded to him: "Thank you, David, for being with me for so long..."

This caught Chris Lak off guard. He exclaimed. He didn't know what to say.

Tang En patted his shoulder: "The game is about to begin, I hope it will be as you said. After five minutes, we will take the initiative again."

Wood shook hands with the three referees and Casillas and walked back. He made a gesture and his teammates immediately surrounded him.

"We are not here to win the runner-up." Wood stretched out his hand and placed it in the middle of the circle.

"Neither I." Bell pressed his hand.

"This is the most glorious moment of my career." Pepe's hand.

"Triple Crown King." Akinfeyev's big hand covered the palms of the people below.

The palms of different skin colors and sizes are stacked one by one, and the piles are getting taller and taller.

After everyone put their hands in, Wood looked at everyone, and everyone was watching him. As the leader said, they were comrades in a trench who shared life and death, and they supported them all the way. After experiencing countless baptisms, they are now standing on the last battlefield, ready to welcome the last and most powerful enemy.

"I'm not good at speaking..." Wood said, "Anyway... I'm very happy to be able to play football with you. Let's win the championship together."

Hearing him say this, everyone waved their hands down with force.

"champion!!"

Real Madrid also formed a circle, and everyone gathered together to make the final battle mobilization.

"This is at the Bernabeu, friends." Casillas' eyes swept across every teammate's face. "We must not fail here. The 70,000 people in the stands are all our motivation. We are Real Madrid! It is the glorious Real Madrid!"

He waved his hand vigorously.

"Don't give your opponent any chance! Win the tenth European Champions League in one go!!"

When the players of both sides stood in their respective positions and were waiting for the kickoff, the Bernabeu Stadium, which had been noisy for more than half an hour, fell into a brief silence. In an instant, the sound disappeared, and everyone was holding their breath and waiting for the game to begin.

The referee stood in the middle circle, looked at the watch on his wrist, and then looked at the fourth official on the sidelines. After obtaining the kickoff permission, he blew a crisp whistle hard.

After Hunterlaer passed the ball to Benzema, he ran forward. At the same time, Aaron Mitchel, who was waiting outside the center circle, rushed straight towards Benzema who was holding the ball.

Benzemaco did not give him the chance to intercept the ball on the spot, and turned around and passed the ball to Lassena Diarra in the back. He passed by Mitchel.

In this game, Done did not let Ibisek start, but used two goals in the FA Cup final. Mitcher, who was in excellent form, was his first time playing in the Champions League final. But Done was not worried that this kid could not bear the pressure. This kid sometimes looked quite lively. He had his own way to relieve stress - that is, fantasize in his mind. Release all the pressure through fantasy.

Mitchel ignored Benzema and continued to rush towards Diarra.

Diyala passed the football backward to Argentine central defender Gare. Mitchel ignored Diyala and continued to pounce on Gare.

Gare didn't send it back this time, and he could see that if he continued to send it back to Casillas, the big man would rush over without hesitation. It was like a robot, setting the route forward in advance. Just move forward all the way!

He passed the football to Ramos on the side, and Mitchel stopped sprinting.

Ramos just received the ball and found that Fernandez had rushed in front of him. He quickly dunked the ball and planned to dodge the Chilean.

Fernandez was more difficult to deal with than he thought. He did not dodge the other party, but was entangled.

"Stop being slow and pass the ball!" Casillas saw the situation on the court clearly from the back. If Ramos still wanted to continue playing on the defense line, he would be in trouble. From his position, it can be clearly seen that the overall formation of Nottingham Forest was pressing forward with Real Madrid's repeated reposts. Hunterlaer, who ran up just now, was already in an offside position.

Nottingham Forest is so pressured away, what do they want to do?

Ramos was forced by Fernandez and chose the most correct approach - to drive the ball forward with big feet.

It looked blind and big feet, but it flew towards Hunterlaer.
