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

Bruno is now familiar with giving passionate speeches in the locker room.

Bruno successfully aroused the emotions of his teammates.

They themselves were well aware of how the outside media had reported on them during this period. The undisguised contempt shown by those reporters at the airport hurt everyone.

The despair they initially felt after learning that their opponent was Real Madrid had long since disappeared, and now they can't wait to start the game.

They want to let the whole world see whether Real Madrid is invincible and whether Manchester United is just here to serve as the background for the championship!

"But we won't lose!" Bruno's voice rose. "We haven't lost this season! We've beaten Liverpool, we've beaten Chelsea, we've slaughtered Arsenal, we've abused Manchester City... When we overcome the next obstacle and move from victory to victory, we can proudly say--"

Bruno looked at his teammates, raised his arm suddenly, and shouted: "Who else?"

Everyone, even veterans like Ibrahimovic who have seen a lot of the world, were moved. They were stimulated by Bruno's words. Young players like Rashford and Mbappe were even more excited.

Even Mourinho felt like he had goosebumps all over his body.

As a well-known "madman" in the world of football, Mourinho is famous for his ability to motivate players. He is good at encouraging players, giving them a critical education, and then stimulating their energy and motivation.

This was also the key to his success at Inter Milan. Sneijder, Eto'o, Milito, Zanetti, Maicon and others were built into an iron army by Mourinho.

But now after hearing what Bruno said, combined with what Bruno said in his previous interview, Mourinho felt like a dwarf compared to a giant.

This is the real madman!

………………

No one knew what happened in the Manchester United locker room except the Manchester United coaching staff and players.

After Bruno's encouragement, Mourinho made some tactical requirements and then let Bruno take the players out of the locker room.

While waiting to play, Manchester United players didn't talk much, but Real Madrid players would get together and chat.

If you just look at this scene, you will easily come to the conclusion that "Manchester United players are nervous and at a loss, while Real Madrid players are relaxed."

In fact, it may be true that Real Madrid players are relaxed, but it must be false that Manchester United players are nervous and at a loss.

Some Real Madrid players were talking about their opponents, and most of the Real Madrid players' eyes were on Bruno.

As the captain of Manchester United, the core of the midfield, and an absolutely indispensable figure, Bruno is a name they have heard too much about.

Casemiro spent the most time marking Bruno because Zidane handed him over to him and he had to contain Bruno during the game.

Because Real Madrid played 433, there were only three players in the midfield, and two of these three players were better at attacking than defending. It could even be said that they could only attack but not defend. Therefore, the responsibility of man-to-man defense fell entirely on Casemiro.

Zidane told Casemiro that he must restrict Bruno, and the result of his contest with Bruno could even affect the outcome of the game!

This is what Zidane told him, and Casemiro felt that his head coach was being a little too cautious.

He thinks it is not difficult for Real Madrid to win, and marking Bruno will only affect the score but not the result.

He knows that Bruno is a very powerful midfielder, good at both offense and defense, and can score points, but after all, he is only one person. As long as he is cut off from other teammates, he will naturally not be able to cause any big troubles.

………………

Bruno did not look at the Real Madrid players. He looked straight ahead, waiting for the referee to announce the departure of the players.

He could also hear the huge noise outside, which was the sound made by the fans. Most of it was an inaudible buzz, but singing could be heard faintly.

The die-hard fans of both teams were already competing against each other before the game even started.

The referee's voice interrupted Bruno's thoughts: "It's time to go out, gentlemen!"

Bruno came back to his senses, then turned to look at his teammates and shouted to them: "It's time to go out, brothers!"

When the players from both teams walked out of the player tunnel, there was a huge cheer.

The fans have finally waited for this moment.

The live broadcast was introducing the starting eleven of both teams one by one, and each name called out would draw cheers from the corresponding fans.

First we start with the Real Madrid players who drew the home team draw, and then the Manchester United players.

The portrait and information of each player whose name is called will appear on the two large screens on site.

The atmosphere at the scene was very warm.

Huge cheers and the theme song of the Champions League were heard in the ears. Bruno led the players to stand on the field. The two sides stood on both sides with the referee as the center, allowing the media to take pictures.

After the ceremony, he, as the "visiting team", led his teammates to shake hands with the referee and opponents respectively.

He shook hands with each one, not staying in front of anyone for more than a few seconds, nor did he greet the other person, he just shook hands without saying a word.

Even his teammate Cristiano Ronaldo of the Portugal national team did not make him stop or look up at the other party.

From the moment the two sides stood in the corridor, he and Real Madrid had already been enemies.

Since you are an enemy, there is no need to be polite.

He never smiled or showed kindness to his enemies.

………………

After the two sides shook hands, they dispersed, and the captain gathered around the referee, preparing to pick sides.

Bruno and Real Madrid captain Ramos first exchanged team flags before choosing sides.

Bruno deliberately lost the right to choose the side and got the right to kick off.

For a team of the level of Real Madrid, the start of the game is very important. Even if you can't score a goal, you can't let Real Madrid gain an advantage.

Therefore, controlling the ball at the start of the game can effectively reduce the pressure on your defense line, while also launching an attack. If you are lucky, maybe you can score a goal?

"Hello, audience friends. I don't know how many of you have stayed up all night and how many of you have just gotten out of bed. But I know very well how many fans are waiting in front of the TV like me, looking forward to the start of this game. Now the game is about to start, let me introduce the starting lineups of both teams to you!"

"First of all, Real Madrid's starting lineup - Real Madrid still uses a 433 formation in this game, with Navas as the goalkeeper, Ramos and Varane as the central defenders, Marcelo as the left back, and Carvajal as the right back. The three midfielders are Casemiro, Modric and Kroos, and the forwards are Benzema, Isco, and Ronaldo."

"Manchester United also used a 433 formation. De Gea was the goalkeeper, Van Dijk and Maguire were the central defenders, Cancelo was the left back, Valencia was the right back, the three midfielders were Bruno, Kante and Gundogan, and the three forwards were Mbappe, Rashford and Harry Kane. Veteran Ibrahimovic did not start the game, he sat on the bench."

"It can be seen that both Manchester United and Real Madrid have sent out their strongest lineups. Both sides attach great importance to this game..."

This is nonsense. How can we not take the Champions League final seriously?

………………

All pre-match ceremonies are over, and players from both sides stand in their formations, waiting for the game to begin.

The referee became the focus. He stood outside the center circle and was checking the time.

The huge Kyiv Olympic Stadium gradually became quiet, and everyone was waiting for the whistle to sound.

The referee put the whistle into his mouth, looked left and right to make sure both players were ready, and then he blew the whistle hard!

"CCTV! CCTV! Good morning, dear audience friends! Welcome to watch the 2017-2018 UEFA Champions League final with me! The two teams are Real Madrid from La Liga and Manchester United from the Premier League! Both teams are super giants in the world of football. Real Madrid has entered the Champions League final for three consecutive years, while Manchester United has remained unbeaten in all the games this season. It can be said that these two teams are the strongest teams in today's football world, and they both have many fans in China. Now, the two teams meet in the Champions League final, and the fans are blessed. Now the game has begun, with Manchester United kicking off..."

He Wei finished his opening remarks on these regulations in rapid succession.

At the Olympic Stadium in Kiev, Harry Kane had passed the ball to Bruno.

Seeing Bruno take the ball, the Manchester United fans in the stands cheered.

"Bruno caught the ball!" He Wei shouted immediately, his tone revealing undisguised excitement.

The moment Bruno got the ball, Manchester United fans in front of the TV and computers became nervous.

They were worried that the pressure of this game would cause Bruno to perform poorly, even though it had been proven countless times that Bruno was a player with a big heart. The more important the game, the better he performed, so it was basically impossible for him to perform poorly in today's game.

They really took this game too seriously and were afraid that something might happen to Bruno, no matter how small the situation was.

Bruno on the TV screen received the ball and stopped it very well, without stopping for a moment, ten meters away. From this action we can see that he was very relaxed, performing normally, his body was flexible and his movements were smooth.

Bruno stopped the ball and dribbled sideways without rushing to pass the ball, while the Real Madrid players rushed towards him.

"Benzema's target is obviously Bruno!" He Wei exclaimed, "They want to steal the ball and launch a counterattack! Bruno will definitely face a very difficult situation in this game... It's over! Good! Good shot! Beautiful!"

He Wei was still analyzing the situation before, but suddenly he cheered. The one who made him lose his composure was naturally Bruno.
