Chapter 160 The Game Begins

"Phew, I'm really looking forward to it. Look at the entire stadium, it's already surrounded by fans from both sides. Look at this scene. I think the momentum will definitely make everyone excited. Look at these lovely fans. God! I can't wait to scream."

"Sky Sports, ESPN, Italian National Radio, France [-]. Dear fans, all the European sports stations you know are here. You can imagine how attractive this game is. My colleagues have almost filled the sidelines."
.
The Millennium Stadium, which can accommodate more than 7 people, has been filled with fans of Arsenal and Liverpool at this time. Flags are flying all over the sky, people are crowded in the stands, and huge roars erupt from time to time as the big screen brushes past each player. , like the roar of thunder and lightning.

The final of this powerful duel also attracted a large number of media reporters. Even in the warm-up stage, the long guns and short guns are still flickering.

As the hottest team in the world at this time.The hottest players, they have no reason to let go of such a major matchup, they want to report as soon as possible whether Arsenal can achieve the domestic quadruple crown and whether they can continue their glory for a season.And Li Yuxin is the most well-known player in the world at this time, his popularity far exceeds the scope of sports, and any troubles about him will definitely be the first focus of the media.

"Focus on it."

"Don't be distracted."

"Do what you have to do."

The arrival of nearly a hundred reporters did not distract Pat and Liverpool assistant coach Herrera. They were still meticulously urging their players to warm up and let the young people get into the game as soon as possible.They knew very well that now was not the time to enjoy the spotlight, especially when Pat yelled almost every step he took. During the half-hour warm-up time, Pat's voice didn't stop.

Wenger didn't have to speak.It is enough to give some pointers to the players, watching Wenger's tall and thin figure appear.Arsenal's players are palpitating enough, they don't want to repeat Li Yuxin's four or five [-]-meter long-distance running every day.After two or three hours of extra practice, no one is that monster.

From reaching the Champions League final to now, during this period of time, Wenger has become more and more strict with the rules of the team. He has been in charge of the coach for a long time, coupled with the guarantee of performance, Wenger's power is enough to suppress everything in the team. The disharmonious voices made these champion members speechless, and no one dared to touch their boss's prestige.

"Okay, back to the locker room." ("It's time, kids.")
"The warm-up is over!"

"They're out!"

"The game is about to begin!".
Wenger and Benitez greeted their players almost at the same time. Arsenal and Liverpool players returned to the dressing room one after another, and the game time was getting closer.

"..., don't let them have gaps on the wing, stand in your defensive formation, don't let them easily pass short passes near the penalty area, remember. Keep an eye on your defensive targets,..., well, use all your strength. Exhaust them!!!"

"Stephen, in this game, your task is to keep an eye on Lee. I want you to treat him like a football, and let him hang on your eyelids. Don't let him take the ball, let him dribble, let him pass, and don't let him hit the goal. Huh, you are very important, my captain. Understand."

Benitez is very aware of his team's position and defense is the number one priority.After all the matters were explained, Benitez squatted directly next to Gerrard who was repeatedly arranging his sneakers.Muttering like a broken mouth.It is rare for the Spaniard to growl before the game, and even the blue veins on his brows are faintly revealed.For him, coming to Liverpool is a test.The turmoil outside the court, the intensity of the competition, the fierce competition and the strength of the opponent, all these factors made this young coach feel pressured, but also full of passion.

"Um"

Gerrard pulled the shoelaces hard, as if agreeing, but also as if cheering up. The determination in his deep eyes also doubled Benitez's confidence.

"...Keep pressing on their backcourt, hold our ball, Cesc, Silva, you have to resist the opponent's sudden impact in the midfield,..., well, this is a game that belongs to you!"

In the Arsenal dressing room, Wenger also emphasized his tactics, but he was not as excited as Benitez. The old man only talked about the game itself, and did not involve too much in terms of morale and mentality.

After one season, the experience has already been experienced. Wenger believes that after his team regained the league championship after the life-and-death finals against Chelsea and Manchester United, his team has matured in temperament and transformed into a more perfect team. The big game will never let them back down. Against Liverpool, which intends to rebuild, he believes that his team can definitely gain the upper hand in spirit, and higher goals will make his players more devoted.

"Papa papa" "Let's go!"

"Hey, let's have a good game."

Wenger clapped his hands encouragingly at his team members, and let them play. There were not too many surprises. Li Yuxin was the first player whose name was called, but Wenger let him stay at the end, holding Li Yuxin's shoulders. Seeing him walking with his head down, looking like he was "little scared", he sighed helplessly, gave some instructions, and then let him go.

"Hehe, don't worry, teacher, I promise to let you have a comfortable vacation. You know, I want to..."

"Also, I'm fine if you don't get angry. Hmph, stop talking nonsense. If you can't play a better game today, let's see how I deal with you. Paris is not so easy to go to."

"No, it has nothing to do with this, and it's agreed."

"This is also a condition, Li. It's not so easy to convince me."

Seeing this disciple who made his head look so bright with just a little sunshine, Wenger got angry and glared at him. Seeing Li Yuxin's relaxed appearance, he increased his bargaining chip.

"Huh? But what's a better game?"

Seeing that the old man didn't seem to be joking, Li Yuxin hurriedly asked, knowing that the old man was stubborn and that it touched his bottom line, it might not be so easy.

"I don't know, is it perfect Li?"

Wenger glanced at Li Yuxin, unable to give an answer, he could only ask back, but before Li Yuxin could answer, he stepped out of the passage first.

"Is it really perfect?"

"Come on, Lee, enjoy your game."

"Oh."

Seeing the dense wrinkles on Wenger's forehead when he turned around, and the tall and thin back leaving his sight, Li Yuxin fell into contemplation, but before Li Yuxin could speak, there seemed to be another sentence behind him in the faint player tunnel, Pat woke him up from a trace of trance, and finally stepped into the Millennium Stadium.

"boom!!!"

"gogogogogogo—go!!!"

"Forward - Arsenal!!!"

"Come on - Liverpool!!!"
.
"Our Iron Soul—Carragher—here we go!" "Jamie!" "Jamie!" "Jamie!"
.
"Germany's invincible fortress - Lehmann!" "Jens!" "Jens!" "Jens!"
.
As the players of the two teams led the ball boys into the field, the entire stadium was instantly filled with the hustle and bustle made by the fans of the two teams. The camera quickly captured the players of the two teams, and the faces of each player appeared On the big screen, the cheers sounded, and the Liverpool and Arsenal fans were fully motivated, roaring like waves of sound.

"It's started, I'm so looking forward to it. There is no doubt that, as Rush said, this final is a perfect match between opponents. Let's see what the two teams will bring us. A visual feast."

"Well, well, the game is about to start, I believe the fans have seen the lineups of the two teams, my Liverpool side, the goalkeeper: Reina, the back line, their strongest lineup: Finnan, Carla Grid, Hypia, Riser.

Midfielders, Gerrard, Alonso, Sissoko, huh, Stephen is going to face off against Lee, I'm so excited, what kind of sparks will the two players collide with, you must know that the two of them were not very 'friendly' before the game, I admire Stephen's fighting spirit. "

"Huh? There are three in the midfield, so Raphael is in the forward line. Cisse. Kewell, Crouch. This is really a crazy gamble. Will this game be a confrontation. "

"I don't think it's possible. Raphael will not play the offensive banner at the beginning of the game. Numerous games this season have proved that Liverpool's main offensive card is not worth the loss. Not only is the offense weak, but it is often counterattacked by the opponent. Especially facing an opponent like Arsenal, once they are counterattacked, it is difficult for them to get lucky."

Without the slightest hesitation, Matthew immediately denied Wright's questioning rhetoric. As a professional commentator, he did not believe that the master tactician Benitez would make such a big deal.

"Not bad. According to the lineup given by Rafael, I think he used the Christmas tree formation. Kewell came out of the injured list, so that Rafael has an all-round midfielder who can lead, pass and shoot. Although he is injured A lot of sickness, but his speed will not be reimbursed.

As for Cisse, the fast speed will definitely be a sharp weapon for counterattack, and it is absolutely suitable to play the role of running back behind Kraqi. "

"Yes, as for Liverpool's midfield trio. There is no doubt that they are the best midfield partner at the moment. Gerrard and Sissoko's interception, Gerrard and Alonso's long-distance and quick exits. The ball. The perfect cooperation, the physical strength of Riise and Finnan can allow them to plug in at any stage of the game. And their assist power has gradually emerged in the past two seasons. I have to say. Raphael put the cards in his hand It is used to the extreme in tactics, it is powerful."

"Well, Raphael made a beautiful move, now we'll see how Wenger handles it, let's take a look at Arsenal's current lineup, which is still the familiar 442.

Goalkeeper: Lehmann, Defenders: Eboue, Toure, Campbell, Ashley Cole, well, in fact, this season, Arsenal's left back is Flamini for most of the season, except for one or two games, other Time, his performance can compete for the best left back.

Of course, it is not doubtful that Ashley Cole is deployed. Ashley's ability is undoubtedly higher, and after such a long rest, for a championship-level player, this will definitely make him explode. Strong energy, this is what Arsenal needs, and it is also what England needs. "

Matthew frowned when he saw Ashley appear on the list, but he quickly found the footnote.

"In the midfield, hehe, there are too many people who can play for Arsenal. Let's see who is the lucky one. Hehe, not surprisingly, Arsenal have used the lineup for a season, Hleb, Silva, Fabregas, and Lee. There is no doubt that Adams guessed it right. Wenger still let Lee play in the midfield.

On the forward line, Thierry is the unavoidable choice. Liverpool defenders should be careful, and Robin, this erratic player, will make people feel different. "

"Although Wenger's formation is quite satisfactory, he will always have players who have changed a lot. In the past, although Bergkamp was a striker in name, he was more like a midfielder. For Thierry and Ljungberg , Pires delivered the ball, not to mention Thierry, the left winger and center forward switched positions.

Li now goes too far. He freely shuttles back and forth between the midfield and the frontcourt, and the whole team adapts to his rhythm. The past games have fully proved this point. Wenger has completely released Li's unparalleled talent, so everything can only be seen in the game. Wenger's arrangement. "

Although the 433 he predicted did not appear, Matthew did not admit that his prediction was inaccurate. On the contrary, once he encountered a stalemate, Matthew believed that Wenger would definitely put up that occasionally impressive lineup, the one dominated by the magical Lee, and paired with two superstars who changed from wingers to centers as auxiliary wing lineups.

"Stephen, I'm sorry, I can't lose either, oh, take it easy, you can't hurt me now."

"That's what I think Lee, be careful."

Holding Li Yuxin's hands was not satisfying, so Gerrard simply hugged Li Yuxin again and gave him a few hard blows.

"cough cough"

"Damn bastard, huh, I was almost killed by this guy."

"Hehe, Li, don't make gay friends, it's very dangerous, hehe."

"Looks like you and Cesc."

After the handshake, Li Yuxin went back to his own half, and saw Van Persie teasing him, Li Yuxin angrily gave him a nod.

"Don't say that, in fact, I still like you better, haha."

Fiddled with "scratching one's head and making a pose", Van Persie did not forget to disgust Li Yuxin.After the tempering of the season, Van Persie has become quite mature, and helping the team win key games one after another has also made him more calm and confident.

"Go away, you bastard."

Li Yuxin was annoyed by this guy and gave him a push. For the two of them, this match was not so much a pressure as a motivation. Li Yuxin had no way out because he had already promised.

As for Van Persie, the ignorant is fearless. Compared with Li Yuxin, he is a real young man, and he definitely doesn't need Li Yuxin's less vigor!
"drop--"

"E-on, Arsenal!!!"

Following Weber's whistle, the cheering sound at the Millennium Stadium reached its peak, and the rolled up air waves poured down the stands like a torrent, shaking everyone's heart.

Arsenal took the lead in attacking, Van Persie pushed the ball to the backcourt, the tall Crouch was not slow, striding forward to grab, and Cisse and Kewell also directly inserted into the ribs of the midfielder of the Arsenal formation, which could force It can also steal, and the three midfielders of Gerrard are also embedded in the 'mouthpiece' of Arsenal's forward line. Liverpool showed high-quality position selection at the beginning of the game. It is conceivable that Liverpool's defensive training before the game. strict.
