From the man behind the football king to the football king.

Manchester United captain Bruno's words appeared in many news media on the day of the game.

With less than twelve hours left before the end of the game, Bruno's words obviously made the final more exciting.

Is Bruno really confident? Or is he just pretending? Or does he just not understand the situation at all?

There are many speculations about Bruno's words.

Of course, the Madrid media mocked Bruno to the utmost, laughing at him for overestimating his own abilities and wanting to defeat Real Madrid.

It is true that Bruno had never lost in the four previous matches against Real Madrid, but don't you look at the level of those matches. Two European Super Cups, two Champions League group matches, are these games comparable to the Champions League final?

Some media also accused Bruno of disrespecting his opponents and having no sportsmanship.

The British media supported Bruno and Manchester United, saying that as a team participating in the final, they should have such confidence.

As for the media in neutral countries, only a very small number of media believe that Manchester United has the possibility of defeating Real Madrid. More media are more neutral and think that this is Manchester United's psychological tactics. Another part of the media believes that Bruno's move is inappropriate. On the one hand, it may anger the opponent, and on the other hand, it is too ungraceful.

Look, Real Madrid didn't say a bad word about Manchester United, nor did they show any disdain. If you do this, you will be looked down upon.

Of course, these people couldn't bother Bruno. On the day of the match, he was in a very calm mood and seemed to have forgotten at all that he had dropped a bombshell at the press conference yesterday.

………………

Thanks to the developed media, Real Madrid knew about this matter that evening.

Some reporters who have a good relationship with Real Madrid players will mention this matter when chatting with them.

Of course, the reporters did not forget to laugh at Bruno's arrogance.

This matter has also been discussed within Real Madrid.

"Now they will know how powerful we are." Marcelo talked about this with his teammates during the break. "I can't wait to teach that arrogant guy a lesson on the court!"

"Don't underestimate the enemy, Marcelo. Bruno is indeed very capable." Pepe reminded from the side.

As a national teammate, Pepe knows how strong Bruno is and what he has achieved in recent years. Media around the world put him together with Ronaldo and Yosi, calling them the "Big Three" in world football, just like Federer, Nadal and Djokovic in the tennis world. Pepe doesn't think there is anything wrong with this. In recent years, Bruno can be compared with Ronaldo and others in terms of personal data and team honors.

However, Pepe was also very confused, because in his memory, Bruno had always been a low-key and quiet person, which was completely inconsistent with the arrogant image described by those reporters.

Is it really him who is conducting psychological warfare?

………………

In response to Pepe's reminder, Marcelo curled his lips and said: "Although the media put him together with Chris and Yosi, I think he is far inferior to Chris."

Who is better, Bruno or Ronaldo? Pepe couldn't comment, especially since Ronaldo, one of the parties involved, was at the scene.

So he smiled and said, "It's hard to say."

Marcelo shrugged and said, "Okay. Even if he is very capable, he is the only one of his level in Manchester United, and the others are not. I really don't understand where this team got the confidence to say before the game that they will beat us and win the championship. Is it because they have been unbeaten in the Premier League this season? Can the Premier League be compared with the Champions League? Especially the Champions League final?"

"Maybe it's their psychological warfare?" Benzema speculated.

Marcelo thought about it and found that this was the most likely possibility.

No one with a normal IQ would say something like this. It's totally illogical!

It seems like this is a psychological tactic by the other side, trying to provoke us and make us lose our composure so that they can profit from it.

But this kind of psychological warfare has no effect on us. You succeeded in irritating us without making us lose our composure. We will show you where those teams that try to irritate or look down on Real Madrid end up.

They were all swept into the dustbin of history!

………………

Everyone was discussing it very heatedly, but Ronaldo did not participate in it. He was not interested in psychological warfare or anything else. He just wanted to make sure of one thing, which was to play with all his strength and win the game.

In fact, Ronaldo cares very much about one thing, which is what Bruno mentioned. He has never won a game with Bruno as his opponent.

Although those games are not very important, the competitive Ronaldo will not allow any opponent he cannot defeat!

At his level, he is always full of anticipation for powerful enemies.

He was eager to face all kinds of challenges, because competing with ordinary opponents had become a little boring for him.

Although he didn't show it, deep down he was eager to compete against opponents of equal strength.

Just like Yosi of Barcelona, ​​who has always been higher than himself in the La Liga scorer list this season. Although he did not win the top scorer in the end, competing with such an opponent gave him enough motivation.

He is the kind of person who becomes stronger the stronger his opponent.

Bruno is his friend, they have a good relationship in private and they have the same agent, but this does not prevent Ronaldo from wanting to compete with Bruno.

………………

"Chris, what do you think?" Benzema suddenly asked Ronaldo who was in a trance nearby.

"Ah?" Ronaldo looked confused and had no idea what his teammates were asking.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw his cute look.

Marcelo smiled and said, “We want to hear your opinion on Bruno’s statement.”

Ronaldo suddenly realized and said, "Well... I think it's a good thing to have confidence..."

Benzema asked: "Don't you feel slighted?"

Ronaldo shook his head and said: "I don't feel that way. After all, what Bruno said is true. We really have never won the game against him... But I want to beat them in today's game."

"Actually, you are very unhappy, right?" Benzema asked again.

C Luo waved his hands and said: "Really not..."

"It's really unpleasant!" Benzema concluded.

Ronaldo glared at Benzema, stood up and said, "I'm going to the gym...", then turned and left.

Seeing Ronaldo leave, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Marcelo rolled his eyes at Benzema and blamed him, "Karim, it's all your fault!"

After the commotion, Real Madrid players continued to discuss how to deal with Bruno in the game. They expressed various opinions, such as using foul tactics, frequent small actions, and provoking him after scoring a goal...

………………

Unlike Real Madrid, which was talking about its rival Manchester United and Bruno, at Manchester United, everyone was relatively quiet during lunch. Of course, some people chatted, but there was no big discussion involving the whole team. Many people chose to go back to their rooms for a nap after lunch.

After Bruno finished eating, he also took a short nap. He got up half an hour later, washed his face with cold water, and then went to the gym for warm-up training.

The other teammates were also busy with their own things. They did not get together to discuss how to deal with Real Madrid. The method had already been discussed in the tactical meeting, and there was really nothing to discuss at this time.

For this game, Manchester United players have a simple mindset. Although they are confident that their team is as strong as Real Madrid, they are indeed not as experienced as their opponents in the Champions League final. Who told them that most of their players did not participate in the Champions League final?

Real Madrid has won the championship three times in the past five years, and this year is their fourth time in the final.

They have no other thoughts except trying to win. They don't think about how to humiliate their opponents or how many goals they have to win against them.

………………

It was not until after dinner in the afternoon that Manchester United players gathered in groups of three or four, chatting while waiting for the bus.

"Bruno, why are you defending Ronaldo? You two are in the wrong positions..." Harry Kane approached Bruno and asked him.

He thought about the tactical meeting yesterday. When Mourinho started to assign defensive tasks, he originally handed Ronaldo to Kante, but Bruno stood up and took the initiative to take Ronaldo over.

Mourinho himself was a little surprised, but he agreed without asking.

Kanter is responsible for zone defense and does not target any one person.

"Of course Ronaldo's position is more flexible, but haven't you always felt that my position is also very flexible, Harry?" Bruno asked back.

Harry Kane understood. Bruno is indeed a player with a very unstable position. Although he is a front midfielder in the lineup, he can appear in various positions at any time when the game starts. Sometimes he is a back midfielder, sometimes a front midfielder, sometimes a winger, sometimes a second striker, and he can also play the role of a central defender.

Anyway, he has good physical fitness, can run endlessly, and can appear in any corner of the stadium. It is really appropriate for him to go and watch Ronaldo.

In fact, Bruno has his own little plan.

He longed to play against world-class players. He had played against Cristiano Ronaldo and Yosi in competitions before, but he had never had the chance to compete with them in a major competition. Now that the opportunity had come, how could he let it go?

Now everyone is saying that Ronaldo is the king of the Champions League and Real Madrid is invincible in the Champions League final, so he has to break these two invincible myths in one game.

No one in this world is invincible.
