Chinese champion

Chapter 376
The time finally came to June [-]th, [-]. It seemed that God was giving me face on this day. The weather in Moscow was clear and the temperature was not too high. From time to time, there was a breeze over the Luchanich Stadium. A great day for football.

Most of the Inter Milan players got up at eight o'clock in the morning, and then did a simple warm-up in the gym in the hotel, and then waited for the afternoon game to start. Barcelona's preparation work was similar to that of Inter Milan. The two coaches, Mancini and Rijkaard, both understand the truth that relaxation before the game will help them perform better in the game.

At twelve o'clock at noon, fans began to enter the stadium one after another. Although the game was held in Moscow, there were still quite a few fans from Milan and Barcelona who rushed here, and the sales of the tickets also proved that At this point, nearly 2 tickets were booked from Milan and Barcelona, ​​and only more than [-] tickets were bought by local fans and fans from other places.

At one o'clock in the noon, the Inter Milan players had assembled in the hotel, boarded the team bus and drove to the stadium. Everyone was in a good mood, and there was no tension before the big game. Although there is no one in the team Players who have participated in the Champions League final.

When the bus arrived outside the Luchanic Stadium, an hour had passed, and there was still an hour left before the start of the game.

There are quite a lot of fans waiting outside the stadium. Most of them have not bought tickets, and they don’t want to be too far away from their favorite team, so they rushed to watch the big screen outside the stadium to express their love for the team. support.

Among them, there are also many fans of Inter Milan, so when the Inter Milan bus appeared in their sight, the whole square was boiling, countless banners were unfolded, and countless cheers sounded at the same time. At that moment, the people on the square The air seemed to be warmer than inside the stadium.

"Long live! Inter Milan!"

"Inter, go! go! go!"

"Pazza-Inter! We are the champions!"

"We are the kings of Europe!"

"Look at these fans, why don't we dedicate a wonderful game to them, not only for them, but also for ourselves!" Pei Wei looked at the exciting scene outside the car window, Talk to yourself.

The other teammates also nodded. This scene also moved them. Although this is a stadium that makes them feel strange, as long as these loyal fans are with them, they will be fearless.

Almost as if it had been agreed, when the Inter Milan bus had just entered the stadium, the Barcelona bus followed. Their arrival also aroused the cheers of the Barcelona fans, the cheers were no less than the Inter Milan fans just now cheer.

"The fans of both sides competed outside the stadium before the game started. The atmosphere was very enthusiastic! But there was no conflict." Wang Jianxiang, a commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, said excitedly outside the stadium: "Scenes like this are not in the league. Even in the Milan Derby and the Spanish Century Derby, it is difficult to see such a grand occasion! This is undoubtedly a big scene, a rare big scene!"

Xiao Jun, the ace reporter of "Sports Weekly", also came to the field early. He is one of the few Chinese reporters who can cover and shoot the game on the spot. He arranged for his assistant to capture some interesting pictures for this report After the tidbits, he lit a cigarette and looked around at the crazy fans in the stands.

It's been 12 years... When I first came to BJ People's University Stadium to report a national under-15 football championship, I never thought that I would be able to set foot on the final of the Champions Cup one day. Covering a much-anticipated European Champions Cup final!
And when I saw two teenagers wearing Hubei Youth Team jerseys at the Renmin University Stadium, I would never have imagined that after 12 years, these two teenagers would represent Inter Milan and Barcelona in the Champions League final!

Thinking of this, Xiao Jun's eyes suddenly became a little moist. If he hadn't covered that game by himself, maybe he is still just an ordinary reporter, worrying about finding a suitable manuscript for the editor every day.

Among the other players who played in that game, Hu Yong was in AC Milan, Wu Qi and Dong Yuzhuo were in Manchester United, what about the others?Except for Yao Le in Fiorentina, Yan Song and Zhao Lin who played in the domestic league, the others either gave up football early, or retired due to injury, and disappeared from people's sight long ago.

Others who have been forgotten, what are they doing now?Maybe they are watching the game in front of the TV now, pointing to the TV and proudly saying to their children: "Look at those two people! Inter Milan's No. 10 and Barcelona's No. 11, they were on the same team as Dad back then." Where's the teammate in here!"

Maybe they will feel emotional, thinking back then...if they could persevere...

"Maybe you, standing high above the roof of the world, but at the beginning, the same me, but now I am working hard for this life..." (Zheng Zhihua's "The Original Appearance")
The big scene will always only belong to those who can persevere and climb to the top, and those who are left behind can only look up from below and reminisce about the past.

************************************************** **
After staying in the locker room for a while, the players went onto the pitch to warm up one after another. At this time, the atmosphere in the pitch became even more enthusiastic. Inter Milan fans occupied the stands near the north goal, while Barcelona fans occupied the stands. The stands to the south are clearly separated. On both sides of the stadium, there are local fans from Moscow and fans from other places.

In the phalanx of fans, there is a small stand that almost attracts everyone's attention. There is a huge five-star red flag flying there, and countless banners. These are Chinese fans who came to Moscow from all over the country, as well as local Moscow fans. A group of Chinese fans.

"Moscow Chinese Association cheers for Chinese players!"

"Pei Wei, Zhu Jun, Zhuang Feng, Wang Xiaomin, you are the pride of the Chinese people!"

These banners prove their identities and who they support. They don’t care who wins or loses. All they care about is the performance of Chinese players, because no matter which team wins, at least one of the main players will win the European championship. Cup of Chinese players.

This phalanx of fans can be said to be the most balanced group present, both Inter Milan fans and Barcelona fans will smile kindly at them when they see them.These four players are not only the pride of China, but also the pride of Inter Milan and Barcelona.

However, when facing the opponent's fans, the fans of both sides are not so polite. Both sides keep singing and shouting, hoping that their voices can suppress the opponent's voice and better cheer for the team they support. .

"This is really... a big scene!" Xiao Luo looked around loudly, looking around the crowded stands, almost forgetting that he was warming up.

He has entered the semi-finals of the World Cup, won the Premier League championship and the Serie A championship, but he still cannot maintain a calm mind in such a frenzied environment.

The other players of Inter Milan are not much better than him, even the old players such as captain Zanetti and vice-captain Cordoba are no exception. After all, this is the first time for them to set foot on such a big stage. Can you ask them not to be excited?

Maybe only Materac, Grosso, and Vieira, three players who have won the World Cup, can feel calmer.After all, compared with the World Cup final, the scene of the European Champions Cup final is still a little smaller.

In contrast, Barcelona's players are much better. After all, they have won the Champions League twice in a row, and the main players are very used to this scene.

"Wow! This scene is really... awesome! This guy!" Some members of the Chinese Olympic team in the stands exclaimed. Indeed, perhaps most of them would be afraid of such a scene. I have never had a chance to experience it myself in my life. Compared with them, Pei Wei, Zhu Jun, Zhuang Feng and Wang Xiaomin are really enviable.

Among the members of the Olympic team, Dong Yuzhuo and Deng Yunfeng are considered the most famous, but even for them, such a scene is probably rare.

"Take a good look at the game." He Jin said slowly: "Try to feel the atmosphere of the scene, you are still young, and it is hard to say what will happen in the future. Didn't Pei Wei and Zhu Jun also start from the domestic youth team step by step? You have come here? Believe in your own strength, I think, if you can perform well in the Olympics this time, you will also have the opportunity to land in Europe, such a scene is not just a dream for you.”

"But they are the protagonists..." Someone muttered such a sentence.

He Jin couldn't help laughing.

"How about you, have you slept well these two days?"

Zhu Jun greeted Pei Wei with a smile, and Pei Wei rolled his eyes at him: "I knew you were up to no good, thanks to you, I ate well and slept soundly these two days, I don't know how good my condition is!"

"Remember, I won't give up this game easily!" Zhu Jun winked at Pei Wei.

"Me too!" Pei Wei replied.

Both of them knew each other's thoughts. Among the team members present, no one knew each other better than them. The friendship of more than ten years was not in vain.After touching fists, the two separated.

"Pei!"

Just separated from Zhu Jun, Eto'o next to him immediately gave Pei Wei a big hug with great enthusiasm: "I have been looking forward to this game for a long time, just watch, maybe you can score a goal in this game, but I will at least Will score twice, the top scorer in La Liga is mine, and the top scorer in the Champions League will also be mine!"

"Haha, Samuel, your confidence is getting stronger and stronger! You know, at that time against Valencia, you still thought you couldn't score two goals and surpass Mista!" Pei Wei laughed.

"I'm growing too!" Eto'o blinked: "You know, I'm very lucky. Behind me, there are always excellent passers! Whether it's you or the current Ronaldinho!"

When Pei Wei turned his head, he happened to see Xiao Luo smiling at him.

In the stands, camera flashes flashed.

**************************************
The simple warm-up ended soon, and the players from both sides left the field one after another, returning to their locker rooms to do intense preparations.

The dressing room of Inter Milan is very messy, and the jackets and trousers that the players have changed are scattered everywhere. The players are hurrying to change their jerseys, shin pads and other things, and their ears are all pricked up. Mancini's speech in the interval.

"This...is the final of the Champions Cup."

"This...is a...very important game."

"This……"

Mancini didn't even know what he was going to say. Perhaps the Inter Milan team was close to reaching the level of "perfection", but there was one flaw that was absolutely obvious, that is, from the head coach to the players, there was not even a single one of them. No one has ever played in a Champions League final.

Mancini has never experienced such a scene. Although he is also a champion-level coach now, if he has not experienced a scene like the Champions League final, he will not have the most personal experience.

But Barcelona will not have such a problem. Their main players have basically experienced one or two Champions League finals. Under the reminder, the tension will be reduced to a minimum.

Rijkaard is even more experienced. Whether he is a player or a coach, he has won the European Champions Cup, so he will never have any negative emotions.

"Should I say that this game is special or that it's just an ordinary game?" Mancini frowned and thought: "I'm afraid the players will be more nervous if I say the former, and I'm afraid the players will be more nervous if I say the latter." They're so relaxed, damn it! How is that Rijkaard guy going to boost the morale of the players?"
