Chapter 226 Before the Champions League
At the end of the season, almost all the players in Serie A are on vacation or preparing for the World Cup.

Only Inter Milan's players are actively preparing for the Champions League final against the Bundesliga overlord Bayern Munich.

Just before the game against Siena, Kaiser learned that because of Kevin Boateng's flagrant foul, the German team captain Michael Ballack missed the World Cup.

This is the same as in memory, and Caesar can only express regret.From then on, the era belonging to Barak ended, and Captain Ram officially debuted.

Immediately afterwards, Loew announced the primary list for the World Cup.

It is not guaranteed that all of these 27 people will go to South Africa, and 4 of them will be selected.

These players have gone to the training ground in South Tyrol, where they will start a two-week training.Caesar and Bayern teammates will go to South Tyrol together after the final, and Inter Milan's other international players will not return until after the Champions League final.

Although Loew said that any of the 27 people may lose the election, the media does not think so.

This time Loew brought quite a few new faces, most of whom were the members who won the European Youth Championship last year.What Neuer, Boateng, Caesar, Khedira, Caesar regrets that Royce was not selected for the 27-man squad.

He has had two injuries this season and is in average form.

After the list was announced, Caesar also received Royce's blessing.

"Come on for the World Cup! I can't forgive you if you don't perform well!"

However, Kaiser is not in the mood to think about the World Cup. After all, the Champions League final is just around the corner, and Bayern, who is in good shape and playing with all the main players, is not easy to mess with.

Before the emergence of Bale-C Ronaldo with [-] million flying together, the most popular winger in Europe was undoubtedly Bayern's "Roberg" connection. With the addition of Ram behind Ronaldo himself, their winger attack was the best in Europe.

Even the combination of Caesar Gaeto'o cannot shake their position as the world's number one winger.

It is not an easy task to defend against this combination.

In my memory, Ribery was suspended for stamping on Lyon players, but now, history has changed because of the arrival of Caesar, and he can't predict the final result.

The last time Inter Milan entered the Champions League final was in 1972. They were defeated 2:0 by Ajax, who had a generation of talents such as Cruyff.Entering the final again after so many years, the hearts of Inter Milan fans are uneasy.

They have waited too long for the Champions League and it would be a huge pity if they didn't win it.

"The plane this afternoon?"

In Allen Town, Germany, in Jimmy Kohler's bar, the white fat man Hammett played with his wine glass and asked again.

Jimmy Kohler reluctantly put down his glass and said, "Hamit, you've asked me 19 times! Flight at 3 pm! Arriving in Madrid soon!"

Hamit smiled sheepishly: "This is not the first time I have gone to watch the Champions League final live, I am a little nervous."

"It's my first time going abroad!" Jimmy Kohler said angrily.

This season's Bundesliga has ended. Red and White Allen's strength plummeted after Kaiser, Grand Cross and Royce left. Fortunately, Dele Grae effectively used the transfer fee left by the three of them to help the team successfully pass the first year. They are only 5 points away from the relegation zone and almost returned to the second division.

It is now 5 o'clock in the morning on May 20th. Hammett and Jimmy Kohler have already prepared their luggage and will fly to Madrid in the afternoon.

"Squeak--"

The door was pushed open from the outside, and Shavrath, Marcus, Delin, coach Uke and others walked in.

"Are you ready?" Uke asked, the Bundesliga game made him a lot older and his hair a lot grayer.

"Coach, what time is it? Why are you in such a hurry." Kohler poured them a few glasses of dark beer, took a sip in the morning, and was full of energy.

"I didn't expect that guy Luther to stand on the field of the Champions League final. It's really enviable." Shavrath said with emotion.

"Yeah, the days of being teammates with him seem like yesterday."

Uke said: "It's too early to say this. He might play as the main player in this year's World Cup in South Africa."

"Damn it, if I knew it earlier, I would have asked for a few more autographs to keep and sell it for money." Xia Fulas looked regretful.

In Milan, there are also many fans like Hamitt, who are preparing their luggage to go to Madrid to watch the game.

Lily is one of them. Her parents promised her that as long as her academic performance reaches the top ten in the school, she will be taken to the finals.

The upbeat Lily got back the top ten results in the school, and she happily showed off to her classmates.

"Ah? Really!"

"I want to go too!"

"Hee hee, look carefully when you watch TV, maybe you can see me." Lily's eyes turned into crescent moons with a smile.

The fans are ready to go, and Inter Milan has come to Madrid and stayed in a hotel 6 kilometers away from the stadium.

Rosie and other wives of the players were also invited, and they lived in a hotel next to each other.

Papa Moratti also came to the hotel, but not to lecture, but to announce an exciting news.

"If we succeed in winning the championship, each player will receive a personal award of 15 euros."

This amount does not seem to be much, which is Caesar's reward for working for two weeks.But for those fringe players, it is already quite rich.

"The starting players get an extra 5 euros, and the substitutes get 3 euros. A goal is 10 euros, and an assist is 8 euros. Of course, the rewards for the coaching team are also generous, so I won't announce them here."

The sum of these moneys is quite a generous amount. The players play football for honor, for interest, and for money.

They exchanged excited glances, and their belief in winning was greatly enhanced.

"The game is coming, I hope you can achieve good results, I look forward to your performance!"

The team's preparations for the past two days have been in a closed state, and no one knows what tactics Mourinho has arranged.

The same is true for Bayern. This is the most critical battle of the season, and there is absolutely no room for loss.

It was very hot in Madrid on May 5, and it gradually became cooler in the afternoon.

The team members slept until 9:[-] in the morning, and everyone was fully rested.

They were eating in the restaurant, chatting casually.After dinner, I went to the gym for a little exercise, and spent the rest of the time waiting.

Fans began to enter the stadium at 5 o'clock. Inter Milan fans and Bayern fans were clearly divided. Red and blue and black were like two waves, crowded outside the stadium.

Leonardo and Zhang Yu finished debugging the machine, next to them were Dustin Doerr and Nia James.Andy Schneider and Hoffman were relatively far away, and various media gathered together, waiting for the game to start.
