Chapter 230 Decisive Battle in the Aegean Sea

In this way, the days passed and the final was getting closer and closer.

Everyone's hearts became tense as the time approached.

And Cheng Wen's filming work has also entered the final stage.

When Li Yuxin's morning exercise was over, they began to pack their things.

After today's daytime training, Arsenal will leave London for Athens, preparing for the Champions League final held there two days later.

And they will also move to Athens, where they will film Athens before the start of the Champions League from all aspects.

After more than a month of filming, they now understand where Li Yuxin's confidence comes from. When a person has done this kind of training, it is impossible to be confident. A captain is so reliable for this team...

"I suddenly thought of a word." Cheng Wen stood on the football field with her hands on her hips, the breeze blowing her hair. "When a person is working so hard towards his dream, all we can do is cheer for him! Come on, Li Yuxin, come on Arsenal!"

After a day of training with the team, the whole team took a special plane to Athens, the capital of Greece, in the afternoon.

There, the 2006-07 UEFA Champions League final is about to begin.

Coincidentally, when Arsenal arrived at the airport, the plane the Liverpool players were on had just landed.

So the two teams met at the airport before the game started...

This is really a very interesting scene, and the media reporters who came to the airport to report the arrival of the two teams are also looking forward to the arrival of this moment-the reporters have long known that the two teams will meet.So now the long guns and short cannons are placed at the exit, aiming at the passage, and intend to take pictures of this rare scene.

Enough hype before the game, everyone will inevitably feel a little tired, but there is nothing more attractive than this scene.

The two teams met in advance before the game. What kind of sparks will the players of both sides collide with?

Especially Li Yuxin and Gerrard... I feel very excited just thinking about it

The reporters are the ones who don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, and they will stir up the excitement if there is no excitement.

Now that there is a natural excitement for them to watch, how could they miss it?

In addition to the reporters, there were also some fans from both sides who arrived in Athens in advance, and they all gathered at the airport, which suddenly increased the pressure on the security of the airport.

For this reason, the airport also specially assigned additional manpower to maintain the order of the fans on both sides. Arsenal fans stood on the left side of the exit, Liverpool fans stood on the right side of the exit, and the middle was reserved for those excited reporters.It can be said that the difference is clear.

The fans of both sides were quite friendly, and they didn't fight outside the court just because the two teams wanted to play.

But no matter how friendly they are, it's not as good as the two brothers hooking shoulders and shoulders.

Bored fans will always have fun doing it for themselves while they wait, not least to attract the attention of the media.

So the Liverpool fans sang first, they sang the Liverpool team anthem.

Their uniform singing not only enlivened the atmosphere of the scene, but also attracted the attention of reporters.So the bored reporters who were waiting for the same moment turned their cameras and camera lenses on them.

Seeing the attention of the reporters, the Liverpool fans became more energetic and became louder and louder.For a while, the exit of Athens Airport almost became a special performance for Liverpool fans...

Arsenal fans saw that Liverpool fans had robbed them of the limelight, so naturally they would not be willing to be left behind, so they immediately sang their own team song when Liverpool finished singing.

The reporter who was taking pictures of Liverpool fans turned around and took pictures of Arsenal fans.

Seeing that the limelight was taken away by Arsenal fans again, Liverpool fans did not show weakness.After the Arsenal fans sang, they sang a song dedicated to Gerrard.

After Gerrard's song was sung, Arsenal fans sang Li's song tit for tat.

In this way, the fans on both sides sang songs one by one... from the team's team song to each player's exclusive song, in addition to the fans' songs, they are all tit-for-tat.

Fortunately, both parties are quite qualified and have a tacit understanding. There is no situation of singing together. They are very polite. You sing one song and I will sing the next one.

Take turns.

This enthusiastic scene made the reporters very excited - this kind of pick-up scene is what they want
Fans from both sides are pulling songs fiercely but without losing their grace, which is definitely much better than a group of people chanting the name of a certain star...

After the Arsenal team arrived at the airport, they went to the conveyor belt to wait for their checked luggage.

And when they arrived at the designated conveyor belt, they discovered that people from another flight had gathered on the next conveyor belt.

At first, everyone didn't pay much attention to it.

It wasn't until Gareth Bale recognized Gerrard that everyone discovered that the group of people turned out to be Liverpool players

Suddenly, the atmosphere suddenly became a little different.

A group of people talking and laughing looked at the opposite opponent, and their expressions became serious.

At this moment, Gareth Bell suddenly called out: "Captain!"

Everyone reacted and found that Li Yuxin went straight to the group of Liverpool players.

Seeing Li Yuxin's actions, the Liverpool players also fell silent, and they focused on Li Yuxin.

Hypia stepped out from the crowd and shouted to Li Yuxin, "Li, what do you want to do?"

Li Yuxin walked up to Gerald without even looking at him.

Today's Li Yuxin is almost as tall as Gerrard in height, he finally doesn't have to look up at Gerrard like in his previous life, and his ears are filled with the screams of those KOPs in the stands.

It was very quiet in the huge luggage hall.

Gerald looked at Li Yuxin without asking what he wanted to do.

Li Yuxin looked at Gerald, then raised his hand, pointing to Gerald's chest: "This time, I will beat you, Gerald"

After Gerald heard this sentence, he didn't show a smile on his face and said "Okay", he replied seriously: "Stop daydreaming."

This kind of dialogue stunned all Arsenal and Liverpool players...

The scene in which the two sides appeared together in front of them, which the reporters were so looking forward to, did not happen.

The Liverpool team came out first, and they were warmly welcomed by the Liverpool fans at the scene.

Gerrard naturally got the most cheers and screams.

But no one saw the Arsenal players.

The flight information showed that the flight from Munich had arrived, but the entire Arsenal team did not come out.

It wasn't until the Liverpool players got on the bus and left that the Arsenal players came out.

This time it was the turn of the Arsenal fans to give a huge cheer.

Li Yuxin walked in the team and received the most cheers from the team.

The reporters all looked at each other.

It seems that the two teams seem to have reached a tacit understanding that they will not play together, but can walk separately.

This is probably what the airport wants.

Didn't see it as lively, which disappointed the reporters.

Although the current scene is very lively, what news is there?

News, of course, is to report unheard of sensational events.

These reporters have no way to get inside, otherwise they will find the real big news - Li Yuxin provoked Gerrard in front of the Liverpool team, claiming that the championship must belong to Arsenal
Such news is exciting enough

It's a pity that no one knows about such things, and the players of the two teams will not be stupid enough to bring up such things...

This episode is destined to be known only to a few people, and perhaps it will be revealed in the memoirs and autobiography of someone who witnessed it after a few years...

※※※

The Arsenal team left the airport by bus and came to the hotel where they were staying, where they were also welcomed by the media and fans.

After taking a short rest in the hotel room, the whole team went to the Athens Olympic Stadium for training to adapt to the venue in the evening.
The day after tomorrow, on this field, there will be the most peak duel in Europe.

While they were training on the pitch, the Olympic Stadium was being decorated for the Champions League final.The flags of the Athens Champions League 2007 final have been hung outside the stadium. The flags are divided into the Liverpool team logo and the Arsenal team logo.

Inside the stadium, the railings of the stands have also been decorated with a Champions League theme.

An arch was also built at the entrance and exit of the player channel, with the logo of Liverpool on the left and the logo of Arsenal on the right. At that time, players from the two teams will pass through this arch and enter the stadium.

To greet them will be the fans cheering like a tsunami.

"This is the venue for the Champions League final. This is the turf for the final..." Gareth Bale seemed a little excited, muttering non-stop since the warm-up.

"Shut up, Gareth," Fabregas shouted.

Gareth Bell stuck out his tongue at him, made a grimace, and then turned to Li Yuxin and said, "I never thought I would be able to play on such an occasion...

Li Yuxin laughed at him: "You even participated in last year's championship, so what's the point of this Champions League final?"

"That's different, Lee, that's different. The world doesn't think we can make it to the final, but we made it to the final in the Champions League. And last time I was a substitute, but this time in the Champions League final... I'm the main force. If we defend the title, I will have a share of the credit," Gareth Bale said very seriously. "So I have to thank you, Lee.

"Thank me for what?" Li Yuxin wondered.

"If I hadn't met you back then, I don't think I would have known what level of league I was in. Maybe I would have retired in obscurity? Anyway, it is absolutely impossible for me to achieve a goal that I never dared to dream of before."

Li Yuxin was a little embarrassed, he touched his nose: "I'm really not used to you talking so seriously, Gareth Bell..."

Gareth Bale also realized that he became serious unknowingly, so he laughed and said: "Then let's play a game the day after tomorrow, just like we won the Champions League last year!"

"That's what I think, Gareth, we're going to beat Liverpool," Li Yuxin also shouted with full fighting spirit.

A group of teammates couldn't help but smile when they saw the two yelling there.

"That's great..." Assistant coach Pat didn't scold Li Yuxin and Gareth Bell to let them train well, but a smile appeared on his face when he heard this. "Young, fearless, full of strength and fighting spirit. They still have a hunger for Li Yu."

Wenger nodded: "So we have to rely on such young people. There are not many players left from the group of players who won the championship last year. The experience of winning the championship at that time is no longer suitable for use now."

He is both nervous and looking forward to it now.

I am nervous because although this is the second time he has led the team to the Champions League final, to be honest, many players in this team have no experience in the Champions League final, and Li Yuxin is suspended, so he is a little nervous.

Looking forward is to see the state of the players, especially Fabregas's state is so good, he can't help but look forward to seeing Fabregas' performance in the final. After all, Li Yuxin is not here, he has to support Arsenal!
