Star Coach

At the beginning of the game, both sides chose to test the attack and did not dare to invest too much manpower on the offensive end. Mourinho's team was even more ruthless, and even Benzema did not cross the half court.

They were testing West Ham's offensive organization strength. In the West Ham team, Ballack also played under Mourinho. Mourinho knew his technical characteristics very well, but he did not expect Ballack to start.

The first ten minutes of the game between the two sides were quite dull. There were not many highlights on the offensive end, but the defense was extremely solid, and it was difficult to tear the opponent's defense line.

West Ham scored the most goals in the Premier League, reaching 90, and the defense was also the best, with the fewest goals conceded; Mourinho's Real Madrid was the same, both of them were a combination of spear and shield. Real Madrid scored 108 goals in La Liga, and the number of goals conceded was only one more than Atletico Madrid, which conceded the least.

This is a drama of a duel between upstarts and traditional giants. Fans all over the world are watching, and the ratings are high, which makes sponsors happy.

The most excited are the fans of the two teams at the scene. They have been roaring since the first minute they entered the stadium, hoping to add a little magical encouragement to the team.

In this game, West Ham and Real Madrid can each get 17,500 tickets. The Allianz Arena has 65,000 seats, and the bulk of the tickets are still in the arms of UEFA.

But Woodward is already very satisfied. They got 17,500 tickets, which is a considerable income. The most important thing is that they reached the Champions League final. This season, the broadcasting fee share of the Champions League will be at least 60 million euros, which is quite considerable, and is similar to the broadcasting fee share of the Premier League champion.

Of course, the Premier League will soon surpass such broadcasting fees. Next season, the Premier League broadcasting fees will rise, and the Premier League champions and runners-up will win more than 100 million pounds in broadcasting fees. Even the relegated teams will have nearly 70 million pounds in broadcasting fees.

The huge broadcasting fees have improved the competitiveness of Premier League teams, but also brought chaos to the league. Good players will not be concentrated in the giants. There will be more and more rising middle-class teams and relegation crazy teams, and the difficulty of the league will become more and more.

But there is money to be made, who cares. Woodward's round face was filled with an excited smile, "In just three years, West Ham has reached the Champions League final. As long as we win the championship, we will be a new giant. It is more exciting to build a giant team by ourselves than to be the CEO of a giant."

He chose to resign from Manchester United and follow Jiangshan, and he valued Jiangshan's ability to lead a giant team. Sure enough, West Ham has succeeded more than half, and the last championship, as long as they win today's game, they will be the latest rising giant team in Europe.

By then, the influence in the transfer market and the influence in the world will be raised to a new height.

It's exciting to think about it.

Jiangshan and Mourinho on the sidelines were not excited. They were very nervous, and the team was also a little nervous. The two sides rubbed against each other for 20 minutes. It seemed very intense, but in fact, there were few shots.

It was not a good game.

Jiangshan was always worried, "Balak can't handle such a strong confrontation. He will be replaced at most in the first half of the game, otherwise his physical strength will decline in the second half, and our pressure will be greater."

The weakest link in the midfield is Ballack. In order to take care of the veteran's emotions, Jiangshan still arranged him to the field, otherwise Kante, who is good at defense, would also have a chance to start.

It's just that Kante's height is not enough. Facing Real Madrid's midfield group, his weaknesses will be infinitely magnified. Ballack can only use his experience to carry it.

According to normal practice, Kroos should go over to help, but Danilo is also on the weak side. He is also unable to cope with the successive attacks of Kaka and Di Maria. Bale often returns to this position and becomes a half-back.

Bale is fast, and he has to attack and defend at the same time. Such comprehensive ability makes Florentino in the box drool.

He looked at Woodward, "Mr. Woodward, several players in your team are good! I wonder if this Bale can be sold? I think Real Madrid fans will like him, and he will also want to join Real Madrid. We are the top giants in Europe."

"Of course it can be sold." Woodward's face did not change. He had already communicated with Jiangshan that every player can be sold as long as the price is right. "But Bale's price is not low, at least 150 million pounds, so you can choose to give up."

Florentino was thinking, can 150 million be bought? How much can be bargained? When buying Ronaldo, it cost 100 million euros, which was already a very terrible price, but everyone saw the effect, and Real Madrid made a fortune.

Bale does not have the commercial value of Ronaldo, and Ronaldo still does not see signs of decline. His peak period can continue for more than 5 years. There is no rush to buy Bale.

In the 27th minute, the situation on the field suddenly changed. Real Madrid launched a quick counterattack. Ballack could not keep up with the faster Alonso. Alonso passed the ball to Marcelo who was inserted.

Marcelo rushed forward with the ball at a fast speed, cut inside, and then kicked the ball. West Ham's defense did not fall in time, leaving a gap.

Marcelo's cross was very steady. The ball flew up. Ronaldo ran back, got rid of Cahill's defense, and rushed to Baines' position.

Jumped high.

Oh my God! Did Ronaldo's jumping height exceed 1 meter? It looks like he is one person taller than Baines?

Baines was not tall enough, and it was too late to jump. He was pressed by Ronaldo to shoot, and he had no temper.

Whoosh!

The ball was fast and rushed, and went directly into the net. The distance was too close, and De Gea had no time to react and could only watch the ball go into the net.

Ronaldo scored, Real Madrid took the lead, 1:0. This goal was due to West Ham's untimely defense. More importantly, Ronaldo's personal ability was very strong. He chose the best landing point for the ball, and he directly killed Baines with the bounce.

It can't be defended.

Jiangshan kicked the water bottle on the sidelines depressedly. The guy I trained actually scored a goal in the game against me. Isn't this showing my ability to train players? But, it's really unpleasant!

After Real Madrid took the lead, Real Madrid fans were overjoyed. They kept shouting Ronaldo's name loudly. He obviously conquered Real Madrid fans long ago.

After Ronaldo scored, he was also very excited and ran wildly to celebrate, but when he rushed to Jiangshan, he stopped awkwardly...

For many years, in addition to his iconic celebration, he liked to rush to Jiangshan and habitually share the joy of scoring with Jiangshan, because Jiangshan was on the sidelines today.

The coach who once pulled Florentino out of a bar in Vienna.

Jiang Shan shrugged and smiled. It's a goal, no need to share it with me. Mourinho saw it with a blank expression.

After Real Madrid took the lead, West Ham was under great pressure. The Champions League final is not an ordinary game. Scoring a goal can sometimes determine the outcome of the game.
