Chapter 298 Features [Leader], the undercurrent on the eve of the Champions League final

Arsenal defeated Manchester United 4:1 at the new Wembley Stadium to win the 2015-2016 FA Cup.

Gun fans all over the world were ecstatic about this and were so excited that they could not sleep at night.

Manchester United fans are also unable to sleep, but their situation is depressed and sad.

Seeing that Arsenal, which has been in decline for a long time, has reached its peak in the blink of an eye, it would be a lie not to envy it.

At the regular press conference after the game, Van Gaal, who once again led Manchester United to nothing this season, was bombarded by the local media in Manchester.

I was in a bad mood after losing, so the interview naturally ended on bad terms.

Before the end, Van Gaal still had the courage to take the initiative and said that he would submit his resignation.

Manchester United CEO Ed Woodward smiled happily after receiving the news from his assistant. He had long been prepared to fire Van Gaal, and now he is voluntarily resigning to save many unnecessary processes.

Waiting for Arsenal's regular post-match press conference, everyone focused on Arsenal's achievements in the British arena.

The third team to win three consecutive FA Cups!
The first team in England to win the Triple Crown of League Cup, League Cup and FA Cup.

Wenger was naturally greeted by all kinds of flattery.

Even if I am old and have enough experience, I still get goosebumps when I listen to it.

Soon, the topic shifted to the Champions League final seven days later.

Wenger was very confident when interviewed by the media: "Since we can reach the final, it also shows that we have the strength to compete for the championship. The game has not started yet, and I don't know what the final result will be, but the players and I are full of confidence in the future decisive battle." .”

The British media were very envious of it, while the Western media were naturally sneers, believing that Arsenal's lineup could not possibly shake Real Madrid's ultra-luxurious lineup.

In this regard, Wenger is too lazy to debate with the Western media.

Anyway, there will be thousands of explanations for things that didn't happen, and only when the results appear will they be given a big slap in the face.

When Arsenal returned to the hotel, they did not continue the party, but went back to their rooms to rest.

Originally, Wenger's plan was for the whole team to rest for a day before preparing for the Champions League final.

Unexpectedly, the players who won the domestic triple crown were all as if they had been given a shot of blood, and they directly stated that they did not want to take vacation.

Obviously, Arsenal players all want to win the Champions League, which has the highest symbolic level!

That night, Martin went to the system's achievement page to receive the Triple Crown.

But according to the achievements page, it is not the Triple Crown.

His name is the British Triple Crown.

receive.

The reward received this time is not a treasure chest, but a feature.

【leader】

Leader: Mental strength is higher than that of ordinary people, and he has natural leadership. In adversity, he can actually improve the fighting spirit of the whole team through his words and deeds.

For this reward, Martin wanted to curse.

Hasn’t this characteristic been reflected in an individual’s personality charm for a long time?

"unlucky."

Martin went straight to the system training field without saying a word and started regular exercises for his inverted left foot.

The scoring method is already very good, and the key attributes have reached 90+, so there is no need for it.

Enhance the ability to reverse the foot and enrich the comprehensiveness of personal skills, scoring, and passing.

※※※※※

In the afternoon of the next day, Manchester United's official website and officially certified social accounts announced two pieces of news at the same time.

The first is to thank Van Gaal for his hard work for Manchester United in the past two seasons and wish him a happier coaching journey in the future.

The second article announces that the club has completed a contract with former Chelsea coach Mourinho, and the two parties have signed a three-year contract.

In an instant, the heat that originally belonged to Arsenal was directly taken away.

You must know that since the EFL Cup was founded in 1960, including the old League One era, no British team has won the domestic treble.

It is enough to show how rare it is to win the Triple Crown in the British arena.

Arsenal defeated Manchester United to set a British record and naturally became the traffic king.

Unexpectedly, Manchester United directly completed the reversal by hiring Mourinho as head coach...

This makes Arsenal's public relations and network department feel very helpless. They thought that winning the championship would bring a lot of free advertising and publicity, but as a result...

The Arsenal team, who returned to Colney training base to prepare for the Champions League final, obviously will not pay attention to off-field events. They put all their focus on preparations for the Champions League final.

Winning the first British Triple Crown in history, if they defeat Real Madrid in the Champions League final, the number of potential champions this year will be seven.

One more than Barcelona in 2009!
Thinking of the seven-time champion, the Arsenal players who were resuming training were particularly motivated.

The coaching staff led by Wenger saw that the players were high-spirited and the training atmosphere was harmonious and relaxed, and they were full of confidence in the future Champions League finals.

As in the past, Wenger handed over the training to Gary Williams, and he and Bould returned to the office to continue studying how to limit Real Madrid's tactical play and develop new tactical scoring routines.

Playing against a team of Real Madrid's level is definitely not like playing against a Premier League team.

With Modric + Kroos, Real Madrid's offensive threat is extremely high.

With the BBC combination in the frontcourt, they are extremely capable of counterattacking and attacking.

Everything gives Wenger's coaching team a headache.

Of course, Wenger is not the only one having headaches.

The same goes for Zidane, who returned to Madrid from London.

If it were Arsenal last season, there would be no need to expend many brain cells.

But with Martin's Arsenal, the combat capability can be said to have increased significantly, which is quite similar to replacing a shotgun with a cannon.

Baldbebas training base.

Assistant coach Hamidou Mseidi watched the players train while Zidane and chief think tank David Bettoni countered Arsenal's tactics.

Although the overall strength and tacit understanding of the team can easily keep Arsenal in the half-court defense, the ability on the surface must have been thoroughly studied. It is difficult to penetrate Arsenal's defense, so you can only find another way. Path.

A flash of stardom?
What if there is no flash?
For Zidane, everything requires complete preparation.

In other words, don’t fight an uncertain battle.

Besides, Arsenal also has its own star players.

Rather than waiting for a star to shine, it is better to make tactical arrangements in advance to nip problems in the bud.

……

As the Arsenal team prepares for the Champions League final, the club's city-wide championship parade plan submitted to London City Hall has been approved. Therefore, it was immediately announced on the official website and certified social media, calling on gun fans from all over the world to come to London. Let’s celebrate the various championships won this season together.

The time is scheduled for the day after the Champions League final.

Regardless of whether they can win the Champions League by then, the plan will still go ahead as usual.

As the first team in England to win the domestic treble, it should be a grand event to increase the cohesion between the team and fans.

Arsenal fans from around the world suddenly became excited and made plans to make pilgrimages to London.

Especially those Arsenal fans who did not win the Champions League final, they immediately changed their plans and booked flights and hotels to London.

※※※※※

2016 is a big year in European football, and the quadrennial European Cup will kick off in France.

The time is June 6th to July 9th in Europe.

Therefore, before the arrival of the European Cup, the most watched one must be the Champions League final, which symbolizes the highest level of world football!

The entire Arsenal team is sweating profusely at the Colney training base, while Real Madrid players are fully preparing for the game at the Valdebebas training base.

However, the Europa League final held before that also attracted enough attention.

La Liga team Sevilla VS Premier League fans Liverpool.

Basel, Switzerland, St. Jakob Park Stadium.

The European four-star stadium, which can accommodate [-] fans, was packed.

The enthusiasm of Liverpool fans makes this stadium with very advanced facilities even more enthusiastic.

Liverpool, coached by Klopp, also took the lead in breaking the deadlock in the 35th minute. Lallana and Coutinho, who were attacking the right flank and holding the ball, made continuous cross passes to the left. Sturridge dribbled the ball on the left side of the penalty area and suddenly used his left foot. Scored from the far corner with the instep.

The 1:0 lead was maintained until the end of the first half.

Many Liverpool fans are already looking forward to the arrival of Klopp's first championship.

Unexpectedly, the game was brought back to reality just 16 seconds into the second half.

Sevilla, who gained the advantage of the kick-off, made a pass from the left. Moreno's header from the back was cleared by Mariano. The latter used his speed and skill to suddenly cut into the penalty area from the outside of the penalty area.

It was too late for the Liverpool defensive players to cover up. Mariano sent a pass from the edge of the small penalty area on the right. Lovren fell to the ground and blocked it for half a beat. Gameiro, who was moving ghostly, stretched out a ball in front of the goal. foot, sending the ball into the goal guarded by Mignolet.

Sevilla, who equalized the score, became more and more courageous as they fought.

In the 64th minute, Bitolo and Banega hit the wall continuously on the left rib of the penalty area. Sevilla captain Koke kicked the ball into the lower right corner of the goal from the edge of the left penalty area, and Mignolet was beyond his reach.

Five minutes later, Sevilla quickly counterattacked. Coutinho, who was playing back in the middle of the penalty area, made a mistake in making a clearance and passed the ball strangely to the penalty area to defend Koke, who was unmarked on the left rib.

How could the Sevilla captain waste such a great gift?
After a slight adjustment, the left-foot volley shot went into the lower left corner of the goal even though it was saved by Mignolet.

1:3
Sevilla completed the lead and expanded the score.

This goal was also the last goal of the game.In the end, Sevilla defeated Liverpool 3:1 and won the Europa League for the second time in three years.

This time last year, Sevilla lost to Wolfsburg led by Martin and De Bruyne.

Liverpool lost in the Europa League final and only finished No. 8 in the league, which also meant that there was no European competition to play in the 2016-2017 season.

With the Europa League final over, the focus of fans around the world has shifted to the Champions League final.

Three days later, at 8:45 pm local time in Europe, the two teams will start a championship battle at the Meazza Stadium in Milan.

The next morning, both sides submitted the 21-man roster for the Champions League final to UEFA.

……

欧冠决赛时间是5月28日晚上8点45分，阿森纳全队是在27日上午从伦敦乘坐航班飞往米兰。

There are already a large number of gun fans waiting at the international arrival gate of Malpensa Airport.

"Arsenal are champions!"

"Arsenal is invincible!"

"We are the champions!"

Seeing the Arsenal players walking past with their suitcases, they all shouted excitedly.

Martin is Arsenal's number one star, and he is the most popular in the team.

Among these excited fans, a large number are from the Dragon Kingdom.

Not all of them came from the East thousands of miles away, but many Chinese were studying or working in Milan and Italy.

Martin led Arsenal to the Champions League final, giving them enough respect for those who have excelled abroad.

In the past, I often encountered all kinds of discrimination, but as Martin has made a career in world football, there are far fewer people who discriminated against him in the past.

After learning that they were from the Dragon Country, almost no one would subconsciously give a thumbs up: Martin from the Dragon Country, great!

There are even many foreign fans who say that Martin has the talent to be a world champion...

The lives of foreign Longguo people become particularly colorful when they are respected.

……

Closer to home, Arsenal fans are extremely excited during this period, with championships coming one after another and the Champions League finals to be played.

Although the vast majority of the media and fans are not optimistic that Arsenal can defeat Real Madrid, the victory or defeat of a football match is not based on the paper lineup, but based on the struggle of the players on both sides for 10, 120 or even [-] minutes to finally reveal the championship suspense.

"Martin!"

"Martin!!"

"Martin!!!"

In addition to the large number of Arsenal fans shouting Martin at the international arrival gate, it was still the same when arriving at the hotel by bus.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Real Madrid players arrived in Milan on a flight from Madrid. The Real Madrid fans waiting in advance were several times more powerful than Arsenal.

Deafening shouts, one wave after another.

Ronaldo, Bale, Modric, Kroos, Ramos, Pepe...

Every Real Madrid player was greeted with enthusiastic chants from the fans outside the cordon, which lasted for a long time.

There is no doubt that Ronaldo is Real Madrid's number one star, and he received the most enthusiastic cheers from the entire team.

Real Madrid's lineup is star-studded, and from the moment they boarded the bus to their hotel, the cheers never stopped.

Obviously, Arsenal, who are short of stars, have nothing to compare with.

If you have to say which one is better than Real Madrid, you can only use the championship won in the 2015-2016 season.

Arsenal have 3 titles, Real Madrid have 0.

As Arsenal and Real Madrid all arrived in Milan, fans following the Champions League final became excited and looking forward to it.

Social media platforms have become an active place for fans to express their personal opinions on their favorite teams and favorite players.

Against this background, various conflicts emerge in endlessly on social platforms.

Including celebrities from both sides of the Champions League final were affected and joined in the war of words.

The players on both sides of the game are extremely focused and are focused on tomorrow night's game.

……

Martin still has a good impression of the city of Milan.

At the beginning of the year, he visited this internationally renowned fashion capital.

At that time, I took advantage of the offseason rotation to come to Milan to sign an endorsement contract with the internationally renowned brand Armani Men's Wear.

A total of 3 million euros over 1200 years.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the Arsenal team went to the Meazza Stadium.

Wenger took Sanchez to the regular pre-match press conference, and assistant coaches Bold and Gary Williams took the players into the stadium to adapt to the venue.

Martin entered the stadium filled with emotions.

上赛季欧联1/8决赛次回合，他代表沃尔夫斯堡来到这里帮助球队3：3战平国米，以总比分7：3晋级欧联杯八强。

Coming to San Siro again after a year, I felt more nervous than last time.

Tomorrow night's Champions League final will be a decisive battle between the two sides at this stadium.

Although his personal ability is very strong, the ability of other teammates is not particularly strong, and there is a certain gap between the strength of Real Madrid's superstars.

Zidane is also very good at solving locker room problems and kneading superstars into a strong whole, thus bursting out with strong combat effectiveness.

Thinking of this, Martin shook his head, pushed away the bad negative emotions, and began to follow his teammates in the necessary warm-up before adapting to the venue.

For tomorrow night's Champions League final, Martin is slightly different from the past in trying to influence his teammates through the belief that he must win, so that everyone can fully believe that he can defeat Real Madrid in the final.

Football matches rely on excellent on-the-spot performance to win. As long as opportunities are created and seized, it is entirely possible to beat Real Madrid!
There are also a large number of UEFA staff inside the stadium pasting the Champions League logo and setting up scenes to create an atmosphere in advance.

Meazza Stadium press conference hall.

Routine press conference before the game.

In an interview with the media, Wenger once again reiterated his yearning for the Champions League championship, saying that the team has long been united in thinking and is full of confidence in tomorrow night's final.

Immediately, he also took the initiative to mention Martin: "We have Martin, one of the best players on the planet. He is extremely capable and has never lost in a career final. This... is a hint given to us by God, Beat Real Madrid, why not?"

Sanchez was well-founded in an interview with the media later: "I had rich experience in defeating Real Madrid when I was playing for Barcelona. It is undeniable that Real Madrid is indeed very strong, and Arsenal is not a soft persimmon that people can easily manipulate. I believe in myself." , Martin, Olivier, Theo, Danny, Peter... every teammate is excellent..."

Cristiano Ronaldo is Real Madrid's top player, and Martin is now Arsenal's top player.

The good media naturally put the two together for comparison and asked who is the master of the Champions League final.

Both Wenger and Sanchez did not hesitate to praise Martin, saying that he would definitely lead the team to victory as he had dominated the game in the past.

The Western media was quite unhappy, but had nothing to refute.

……

Arsenal's approximately two-hour pre-match warm-up time was over. When the bus they boarded drove to their hotel, overwhelming cheers rang out from the main road outside.

It turned out that Real Madrid took a bus to the Meazza Stadium to conduct a pre-match press conference and a regular pre-match press conference.

The player who followed Zidane to participate in the regular pre-match press conference was the top player Cristiano Ronaldo.

After hearing that Wenger and Sanchez were optimistic about Martin, Ronaldo was as domineering as ever: "Countless people have said the same thing in front of me, but in the end they all became the losers at my feet. Arsenal and Martin were the same. My team is very strong and capable of destroying any opponent."

The British media always ask questions from a tricky angle. A reporter from "Football London" asked: "So far, no offensive player has been able to complete the breakthrough against Martin. Are you confident that you can score in front of Martin?"

How could Cristiano Ronaldo, who was already thirty years old, not be able to hear the two meanings that the other party wanted to express in his words?
He thought for a moment and returned the favor: "Football is a team sport. I don't deny that Martin has a strong defensive ability, but... I will seize the opportunities created by my teammates, but as far as I know, the Arsenal forward is the 2015 -The team that missed the most opportunities in the 2016 season, right?"

The Spanish media applauded Ronaldo's witty answer, while the British media looked grave.

The original intention of the "Football London" reporter was to stimulate Ronaldo to take the initiative to find Martin in the Champions League final, which would be equivalent to inhibiting Ronaldo's performance.

Unexpectedly, Cristiano Ronaldo responded cleverly. While praising his teammates, he also satirized Arsenal's offensive players for their poor grasp.

It's simply... stealing the chicken but losing the rice.

Cristiano Ronaldo is a proud player. His goal was to surpass Messi. Seeing Martin's rapid growth and himself turning 31, he felt a little anxious.

There are two Ballon d'Ors away from Messi. Taking advantage of the European Cup and Champions League finals this year, it is an excellent opportunity to narrow the gap and surpass it!

The future of world football will most likely belong to Martin.

If you want to maintain your advantage, you must win as much honor as possible!
A few years ago, he would have chosen to play Martin alone.

Now that he has successfully transformed, there is no need to use the absolute speed and breakthrough ability that he has gradually lost to challenge Martin, who has the strongest defensive ability in world football today.

Help Real Madrid win the Champions League final, even if you can't score, it doesn't matter.
