Chapter 374 Berlin Olympics

The UEFA Champions League final is counting down. Arsenal's one-day holiday is over and all players return to prepare for the game. Barcelona on the other hand is similar to Arsenal.

After winning the league championship, he prepared for the Copa del Rey in Spain, and then defeated Athletic Bilbao 3-1. After winning the second championship, Enrique also gave Barcelona players a day off.

The double champions are against the double champions. No matter who wins the Champions League in the end, Europe will definitely have a triple crown this season, but Barcelona has already won it. If Barcelona really wins the championship, it will be the second triple crown in Barcelona's century history.

The media was excited. After all, it was not easy to give birth to a triple-champion. Moreover, the European League is about to enter the offseason, and the Champions League final is the last game before the offseason.

The UEFA Cup was born at the end of May, and Sevilla won the championship again. Sevilla once again proved to everyone with facts that the UEFA Cup is also called the Sevilla Cup.

Sevilla Cup, no, the focus of the UEFA Cup cannot be compared with the Champions League. The UEFA Cup is the second tier of major leagues participating, and the Champions League is a contest between major European giants.

As the last game of this season and the most valuable game, the Champions League final will not only attract media around the world, but also fans around the world.

However, it is not easy for the media to interview the players of the two teams. No one dares to be careless in the final, so the head coaches of both sides gave orders early. Unless it was an interview arranged by UEFA, no other interview was accepted, even if it was a media with good relationship with the team.

Because of the team's strength issues, Wenger has always asked the players not to accept interviews and not to instigate opportunities to influence themselves.

Barcelona doesn’t need to worry about the so-called team strength. As one of the La Liga doubles, Barcelona’s strength has been unanimously recognized as the strongest team in Europe.

But the next one is the final of the Champions League, which is related to the team's second triple-champion honor and whether Enrique can win the first Champions League in his coaching career and thus prove his coaching ability to the world.

Before returning to Barcelona, ​​Enrique also coached several teams, including the Serie A giant Roma. Unfortunately, Enrique's coaching performance in the past few years was not good.

The players on both sides do not cooperate, and the media can only be happy. As for the fans, in addition to watching the media, they can only wait silently. Fortunately, this time is not long.

On the fifth day to the end, both sides were quiet from head coach to players, and there was no change in the fourth day to the end, and even the same was true on the third day and the second day.

Of course, this quiet refers to the players of the two teams themselves. In fact, the outside world is very lively. Although the media cannot interview the players, this does not affect their story making up.

For example, if someone was injured, Li Shou was injured on the first day, and Messi was injured the next day. Anyway, they can always make up various stories to attract the attention of fans.

Although the two teams preparing for the game are not as much as the media has made up, some things have indeed happened as the game approaches, especially Arsenal.

Most of Barcelona players are experienced and are not the first time they have participated in the Champions League final. Some people have even had several championship trophys, and they have to be much more peaceful in their mentality.

Arsenal is different. The last time Arsenal entered the Champions League final dates back to 9 years ago, and the biggest similarity between that Arsenal and the current Arsenal team is that the head coaches are both Wenger.

The Arsenal player nine years ago has basically retired now, and a few of them are still on the stadium and have already withdrawn from the mainstream league. Moreover, the two teams have completely different core and tactics in the players.

The Arsenal striker Henry nine years ago was the core and was known for his offense, but now this Arsenal team focuses on goalkeeper Li Shou and mainly focuses on defensive counterattacks.

Now this Arsenal team does not have the so-called Champions League final experience. Everyone has entered the Champions League final for the first time, which is also Arsenal's biggest disadvantage in this game.

And the Arsenal players are not old now. Rosici, the oldest in the team, is now Arteta, and then Flamini.

But these three people will not make the game in the next game, Arteta is still injured, Rosici and Flamini will be on the bench list without any player on the Arsenal starting lineup, after all, no player on the Arsenal starting lineup is over 30 years old.

If Arsenal starts without any change, the youngest player is Chambers. This young player is in 1995, and Bellerin, who plays the same position as him, is in 1995, so both of these two starts the same, and then there is Li Shou of 1992.

However, Li Shou had no problem with his mentality. This guy was still focused on the training ground and did whatever he should do after normal training, without any impact at all.

Wenger expressed his satisfaction with Li Shou's performance, but Arsenal players steadily asked Li Shou, and the answer given by Li Shou was almost beaten up in groups.

"Only the weak will be nervous. A strong man like me, no matter who he faces, will be the same. I have the confidence to hold the goal behind me."

Li Shou’s words are very pleasing, but it is just that reason, but it is simple to say, but it is difficult to really do it. As for the current Arsenal, only Li Shou can do it.

Li Shou is really not nervous, and this guy is even a little impatient. Li Shou is eager for this Champions League final and is eager to go with Messi on the court. With the fact that he has defeated Ronaldo and Real Madrid, there are only Messi and Barcelona left in front of Li Shou.

Turning a stumbling block into a stepping stone is Li Shou’s most real thought in his heart.

Li Shou longs for him, and Messi is actually even more eager. With Ronaldo gradually catching up with him, Messi urgently needs a triple-winning champion to consolidate his position.

Messi is not as outgoing as Ronaldo, but Messi's inner pride is no less than Ronaldo. Compared to sharing the throne with Ronaldo, Messi hopes to monopolize the throne.

However, if Messi wants to monopolize the throne, he still needs to be steady. After Li Shou led Arsenal to defeat Real Madrid where Cristiano Ronaldo was, Li Shou had surpassed Cristiano Ronaldo on the golden ball, which means that Messi's biggest enemy this year has changed from Cristiano Ronaldo to Li Shou.

In fact, the preparations for the two teams ended on June 4th. Although the final was on the 6th, it was the Champions League final after all, and both teams would choose to go to the finals one day in advance.

The final of this season was held in Berlin, Germany. The final stadium is called the Berlin Olympic Stadium. This stadium has been renovated many times. The most recent renovation was in 2000. It took four years to be the venue for the German World Cup final. A five-star stadium that can accommodate 76,000 people.
