Chapter 165 We are the champions

The Champions League finals are Inter Milan and Manchester City.

However, when people mention this final, they are not only talking about Inter Milan and Manchester City, but Real Madrid are also repeatedly mentioned. This is not only because the Champions League final was played at Real Madrid's home court, but also because, whether it is Inter Milan or Manchester City, there are too many stories, too many connections and too many subtle things.

First of all, Inter Milan is able to reach the final, it seems that it needs to be thanked by Real Madrid. Inter Milan's best performance in the Champions League is Sneijder. So far, Sneijder has three goals and five assists in the Champions League. These five assists are very important. In addition, Sneijder's three goals are the key goals that determine the outcome of the game, helping Inter Milan reverse Kiev to win the key battle in the group qualifying, eliminate CSKA through the quarter-finals, defeat Bayern Munich to win the semi-finals!

It can be said that it was Sneijder's outstanding performance that helped Inter Milan reach the Champions League finals, and even Bayern Munich could reach the semi-finals, we should thank Real Madrid for their gifts. Robben's performance is the guarantee of Bayern Munich's finals in the Champions League.

Last summer, in order to realize his superstar strategy and eliminate his ex-dissidents, Real Madrid gave Sneider and Robben, the two Dutch stars, to Inter Milan and Bayern. Sneider, who joined Real Madrid for 27 million euros, was sold to Inter Milan for 15 million; Robben, who joined Real Madrid for 36 million euros, was sold to Bayern for 25 million. After owning Sneider, Inter Milan found a midfielder who had been looking for for many years; after owning Robben, Bayern finally had two wings flying together. These two players played a core role in Inter Milan. Get these two stars at low prices, Inter Milan and Bayern need to thank Real Madrid.

Robben's Bayern Munich was eliminated in the semi-finals by Sneijder's Inter Milan. Now Inter Milan has reached the final. For Sneijder himself, this time the Champions League final at the Bernabeu will be a special experience. Sneijder was swept out by Real Madrid last summer, enduring great humiliation and determined to prove himself. A year after leaving the transfer, the Dutch led the team back to the Champions League final, and this final was held at Real Madrid's home court. It can be said that for Sneijder, no matter what the final result is, he has reason to hold his head high. Because he has told the world: he is not a useless person, he is also a hero.

As for Manchester City, Robinho and Ronaldo in the team used to play for Real Madrid. Ronaldo joined AC Milan after being swept out by Real Madrid. Robinho was often replaced in the game due to dissatisfaction and fired at the top of Real Madrid, and was eventually sold to Manchester City by Real Madrid at a high price. It can be said that Robinho and Ronaldo were not so happy when they left Real Madrid. This time, the two reached the Champions League final with Manchester City and will play at the Bernabeu, which can also be said to be a proud return. Especially Robinho, if Ronaldo no longer needs to deliberately prove himself, then Robinho obviously needs this final to fight back against Real Madrid.

It is said that Real Madrid is also the focus of attention now, because Real Madrid is coveting the core of Inter Milan and Manchester City.

It is no longer news for Real Madrid to buy Zhang Yang, especially seeing Zhang Yang's perfect performance at Manchester City. Especially this season, Real Madrid still failed to win the Champions League quarterfinals with Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, while Zhang Yang led Manchester City to make great strides. Not only did they win the Premier League championship and the English League Cup, but they also reached the Champions League final! How can such achievements make Real Madrid, which has always been coveting Zhang Yang, go crazy?!

During this period, the media in Spain and England were always full of transfer rumors between Zhang Yang and Real Madrid. Although Manchester City is not short of money, it will not sell people because of money, and it will not sell the team's flag. Zhang Yang also publicly stated that he would not leave Manchester City, but the media can always find 120 reasons to prove that Zhang Yang is likely to join Real Madrid.

Among them, "Marca" said in a tone of pride and affirmation, "It is almost impossible for players on this planet to be unmoved when facing the invitation from Real Madrid..."

In addition, in the past two days, the front page headlines of the Spanish media have been filled with another news: Inter Milan coach Mourinho will become the next coach of Real Madrid! "Maca" published Mourinho's latest interview: "Real Madrid is so great. If I had not coached Real Madrid, I would have left a big gap in my career." At the same time, Italian media pointed out that Inter Milan President Moratti tried all kinds of ways to keep Mourinho, but none of these efforts have been effective. Mourinho has recently expressed that he feels stressed and cannot feel any happiness in Italy, which is the main reason why he wants to leave Serie A.

Compared to Mourinho's ambiguous attitude, the unhappy and ostentatious attitude is very firm: Where do you know that I will go to Real Madrid? I am very good at Manchester City. We have won two championships and may also win the Champions League championship. These are results that Real Madrid has not been able to achieve. Why should I go to Real Madrid?!

This is not polite to the super giant Real Madrid, but it really made many people, especially Barcelona fans, relieved. If Zhang Yang joins Real Madrid, it will definitely be a nightmare for Barcelona.

The finals are getting closer.

Finally, May 22, the 2009/2010 Champions League final match day.

The Bernabeu stadium is brightly lit and the crowds are buzzing. The European Champions League final is about to kick off here.

Manchester City fans who came from the UK and Inter Milan who came from Italy entered the court from different entrances under the escort of the police.

However, even so, there was still a case where fans of both sides deliberately went to the other party's "territory" to provoke. Whether it was Manchester City fans or Inter Milan fans, they were not willing to be outdone in the face of the other party's provocation.

In the words of the media: These are two teams that are extremely lacking in the feeling of a championship!

Needless to say, Manchester City won the Premier League this time, which is their first top league championship in 42 years. As for the Champions League championship, Manchester City has never won it. Even this time it reached the finals, it is the first time in history. Before, they have not even qualified in the group stage.

As for Inter Milan, they have been nearly half a century since they won the Champions League championship last time, and that is still the glory of the era of "Greater Inter Milan".

Therefore, the fans of these two teams that reached the final this time were extremely excited.

The Spanish policemen in charge of the security of the Bernabeu are simply facing a great enemy. Italian fans and English media have different reputations. English football hooligans are world-famous, and in fact, the reputation of Italian fans can be said to be extremely bad.

The security staff are really nervous and are really worried that some fans who are drunk will do something crazy.

When the fans of both sides were at a strife outside, the players on both sides had already appeared and started to warm up.

The warm-up was very simple and it ended soon. The players on both sides left the court and returned to their respective locker rooms for the final preparations.

Van Basten is in the final battle mobilization before the game.

The tactics that should be discussed were arranged a day ago. At this time, there was not much time and he would not say it again.

"Who among you has experienced such a game?" Van Basten looked at his players.

The players subconsciously looked at Ronaldo and Zhang Yang. Needless to say, Ronaldo is the best striker in the past decade. Zhang Yang is the captain of Manchester City and the team's banner. He is now one of the top stars in football.

Ronaldo shook his head.

Zhang Yang also shook his head, "I have only played in the semi-finals once, and never played in the final."

In the entire Manchester City team, no player has ever experienced the Champions League final!

The players looked at Van Basten in confusion, and Zhang Yang didn't understand it either. The head coach said what to do, wouldn't this add to the nervousness of the whole team?!

Van Basten continued, "I know some of you must be very nervous now. They think that this is our first time playing in the final, and they will be very nervous, and even their confidence in winning is a little shaken. But what I want to say is-." Van Basten snapped his fingers, "Our opponent, Inter Milan, only one player in their team has played in the finals. That person is Etoo, Zhang Yang. Do you think Etoo is better than you?"

"Of course not." Zhang Yang said.

"That's right, you all think that your captain is better than Etoo. Now, except Etoo, the entire Inter Milan is no different from us. We are all entering the finals for the first time. Players like Inter Milan have played such a game for the first time. You should be proud of yourself! Really, Manchester City's performance this season is enough to make your opponents feel scared! They play the Champions League every year, but they have not reached the finals until today. You are much better than them!"

There was a burst of laughter among the players. When Van Basten said this, they relaxed their nervousness.

"Guys. Now we have a great opportunity! Win this game and stand on top of Europe, we will make history! Will anyone think this is a very impossible task?"

"Of course not!" Zhang Yang led the whole team to shout.

"Very good! Then cheer me up! Win the game, just as you have been able to do before!!" Van Basten said loudly.

PS: Through the book review area, Zhutou learned that a book friend from Chongqing is now fighting the disease. Zhutou hopes that this book friend will recover soon. The disease is not scary. As long as we have a cheerful mentality and scientific treatment, we will definitely be healthy. I hope Zhang Yang can continue to bring happiness to this book friend.
