Chapter 30 The Prelude to the Battle of Two Giants

The day before the game, Bayern came to Madrid with a high profile, and they checked into the hotel that had been arranged earlier.This is a hotel in Madrid close to the Bernabeu, which is convenient for Bayern players to familiarize themselves with the venue.

In fact, Heathfield wanted to keep a low profile, but there was no other way, he couldn't keep a low profile.They are Bayern Munich, the top class in the Bundesliga. The title of "Green Hollywood" is not something to talk about. In the field of football, qualifications and seniority are very important.If all the clubs in the world are arranged in a pyramid, Bayern and Real Madrid are definitely the teams at the top.

Therefore, if other teams come to the Bernabéu, I am afraid that many people will pretend to be low-key, saying that they admire this football holy place very much.But the giants of Bayern's level absolutely cannot say the same, because they are giants at the same level as Real Madrid.As the banner team of the Bundesliga, they must not say anything that shows weakness.

Except for Bayern, all the Bundesliga teams in the Champions League this season were defeated in the group stage.The current Bayern can be said to be the only fruit left. They represent the face of the entire Bundesliga. Even if they are facing the white giant of football, they can only grit their teeth and chop him down.

For this game, Hitzfeld can be said to be exhausted.Magath was originally leading the team this season, but his poor performance in the first half of the season made him fired by Beckenbauer during the winter break.In order to make the team improve in the second half of the season, Bei Huang personally invited Heathfield at the expense of face.

In fact, Hitzfeld didn't plan to go to Bayern originally, because in the summer of 04, he could be said to have been kicked out of Bayern.Magath's predecessor was him. He took charge of Bayern in 99 and led the Bundesliga squad to win three consecutive league titles, two German Cup titles, and a Champions League title. It can be said that he is famous.But in 04, because he didn't win a championship, he had to leave sadly after the season ended.

It was Magath who succeeded him. Magath did a good job in the first season he just took over, but in the second year, which is this season, it can be said to be a mess.Ranked fourth in the league, next season's Champions League qualification is in jeopardy, the German Cup has been eliminated, and the opponent in the Champions League is Real Madrid.For Bayern this year, it can be said that everything is not going well.

In the domestic league, Bayern was 12 points away from the number one Stuttgart. With such a big difference, it is basically hopeless to reverse.Werder Bremen is also 3 points away from No.6, and it is a bit hanging to enter the Champions League next season.So the Champions League has become the only battlefield where they can win honors. For this game, the club attaches great importance to it.

In order to make the players have sufficient physical strength, Hitzfeld hid all the main players in the last round of the league, and lost 1-0 away to Aachen, which ranked second to last.However, the German media is quite rational about this game. They all understand that this is for the Champions League, so they did not criticize Hitzfeld too much.It can also be said that the defeat of this game is postponed. If Bayern is out in the Champions League, then the two defeats will be scolded together.

From this point of view, Capello's situation will be a little worse.Spanish fans and the media don't analyze why you lost. They only know that you lost again, and then immediately start scolding.

The duel between the two giants immediately attracted the attention of fans all over the world.Although UEFA has tricks in the schedule, this kind of tricks ensures that every round will have a highlight, which can attract fans to watch.Nowadays, football is becoming more and more commercialized, and all the giants are used to duels with old opponents.

The other three groups that started at the same time were Celtic vs. AC Milan, Lille vs. Manchester United, and PSV vs. Arsenal.In these three games, we can basically know who will win and who will win. The only suspense in this round is Real Madrid vs. Bayern at home.

White Giants VS Bundesliga Giants.

Before the game started, fans from all over the world flew to Madrid to witness this match that was destined to be wonderful.

Real Madrid, as the owner, naturally wants to express their confidence in winning.

The first is Captain Raul's speech.Facing the interview with "Marca", Raul first praised Bayern as a very powerful opponent in a very gracious manner, and then changed the subject, expressing the confidence of the team to win.

Raul's words were relatively polite, so the Bayern players also expressed their desire to win in a very polite tone.

Then the fourteenth master, who had no nerve in his head, jumped out and said something that made Bayern very angry.

"Bayern is indeed good, but compared with our Real Madrid, it is still a grade. In the whole football, the team that ranks first can only be Real Madrid. We will let them know why Real Madrid is the 'best club of the twentieth century' !"

After listening to Guti's words, Van Bommel, who was also proud and arrogant, immediately faced off.After transferring from Barcelona to Bayern this season, Van Bommel quickly became the main force in the team. Throughout the season, his performance can be said to be the best, which makes him very prestigious in the locker room. If Dee belittles Bayern so much, he will naturally stand out.

"I don't know why he is the vice-captain in Real Madrid. Calderon is right. He is a 'seed' that will never grow and blossom."

As soon as he said this, the Fourteenth Master immediately flew into a rage. Calderon was his boss. He held back and did not lose his temper. What kind of onion are you, Van Bommel, to dare to say such a thing.

"Huh, I don't know why Bayern found it so bad this season, but I can imagine the reason. Their team has one more person who shouldn't exist."

As soon as Guti finished speaking, Uncle Ma Kaima, who couldn't bear it, took up the topic and began to attract hatred.

"No matter how much you say verbally, don't cry when you lose, 'seed'."

After Uncle Ma finished speaking, after thinking about it, he couldn't help but speak out what was in his heart.

"In this game, I will prove that I am the best striker of the Oranje. I will let Basten know that it was his biggest mistake not to let me enter the national team."

Although Uncle Ma's words were not very clear, all the media reporters knew who he was targeting.

Poor Van Nistelrooy, it was hard for him to say anything when Van Bommel spoke.Because one side was his club teammates and the other was his national team teammates, he had made up his mind to keep his mouth shut until the end, so as not to please both sides.But who knew that Ma Kai, who had always been very upset with him, directly brought it in.

The 20s was a golden age for Dutch football.Kluivert, Van Nistelrooy, Makaay, Van Bommel and others were all born during this period.

Needless to say, Kluivert became famous when he was young. At that time, he was a super genius with the same reputation as Ronaldo, and his performance when he was young was indeed worthy of his name.Consecutively participated in the 96 European Championship, the 98 World Cup and the 2000 European Championship, with outstanding performances each time, allowing Pele to select him as one of the top [-] football superstars that FIFA asked him to evaluate.

Compared with Kluivert, Van Nistelrooy can be described as a real late bloomer. The two were born on the same day. Van Nistelrooy joined the Tulip Legion in 2004 and played for the Netherlands in the European Cup in Portugal.However, the facts show that Van Nistelrooy is the real superstar. When Kluivert was getting depressed day by day, Van Nistelrooy took over the offensive arrow of the Tulips and captured the territory for the Dutch national team.

However, the emergence of Kluivert and Ruud van Nistelrooy, two unborn forwards, has prevented another European Golden Boot from having the opportunity to replace the national team in the World Cup until now.

That person is Ma Kai, Uncle Ma.

When he was young, he had Kluivert. When he matured, he reached his peak and won the top scorer in La Liga. After the European Golden Boot, there appeared a "King of Small Areas" Ruud van Nistelrooy, who once again took him to the national team The road is blocked.

In 03, Uncle Ma Kaima was extremely coquettish. He scored 29 goals in the entire league, beating Van Nistelrooy who scored 26 goals for Manchester United in the Premier League and won the European Golden Boot.But in the European Cup in 04, Basten still let Van Nistelrooy start, and he was a substitute.

Ma Kai believes that the reason why he is not a starter is because Ruud van Nistelrooy is in the giants Manchester United, but he is in a small team.So when Bayern showed his seduction to him, he resolutely left Deportivo and joined the Bundesliga giants.He regarded Van Nistelrooy as his lifelong opponent.

But what he didn't know was that Van Nistelrooy did not regard him as an opponent, and Van Nistelrooy's eyes were always on Kluivert.

Fan Ni, who was also shot while lying down, faced the questioning of the media and didn't say much, just said something lightly.

"Then let's compare who has scored more goals."

Fan Ni's words directly ended the war of words between the two sides.Both sides began to hold their breath silently, in order to defeat each other in the game, because only the winner is qualified to laugh at the opponent.

At this point, the dressing room of Real Madrid unanimously supported Van Nistelrooy's goal, and they all expressed that they would pass the ball to Van Nistelrooy and let him score.

"You don't need to be like this. The team's victory is the most important thing. Don't fall into the opponent's trick for me."

What Ruud van Nistelrooy said made Gago have to lament the quality of a professional player. It really is for the sake of the big self, sacrificing the small self.

After the war of words between Real Madrid and Bayern was over, Gago thought he should wait quietly for the next day's game.

As a result, the Catalan Roja Sports Daily, who was afraid that Real Madrid would be too comfortable, once again used disgusting headlines to provoke the nerves of Real Madrid fans.

"I think Capello should put Raul on the bench in order to win the game. Since he became the captain of Real Madrid, the former golden boy has lost his aura. His most amazing sense of smell in the penalty area is already here. Exhausted under the pressure of the captain, just look at the number of goals he has scored in recent seasons. As the banner of Real Madrid in the last three seasons, he has never scored more than ten goals. Efficiency, even a third-rate striker is better than him with the support of Real Madrid's luxurious midfielder.

I don't know why such a person can still occupy a starting position, is it just because he is the captain.I can only say that he is not worthy of being the captain of Real Madrid! "
