Chapter 1195 Warm-up is a warm-up, the game is a game

The newly built Wembley Stadium removed the iconic twin towers during reconstruction and replaced them with the Rainbow Bridge above the roof. Although the shape of the stadium has changed, Wembley Stadium is still the symbol of English football.This place has witnessed the ecstasy of countless people, as well as the tears of countless people. There are deafening cheers and suffocating silence.

Many champions have been born here, FA Cup, League Cup, World Cup, European Cup...

What will be born here today is the highest honor in European club competitions.

When the two teams had just boarded the bus and drove towards the stadium, the fans began to enter the stadium one after another. The fan associations of the two clubs entered the stadium in advance and began to hang banners and slogans to create an atmosphere in the stadium in advance.

The 9-seat stadium was quickly filled.

But when the two teams arrived outside the Wembley atmosphere, there were still countless fans who welcomed their respective heroes with enthusiastic cheers-most of these people were fans who did not buy tickets.

They didn't leave because they didn't have tickets, but they still waited outside the stadium, just to be the first to welcome them when the team came to the stadium.

These people waved their scarves at their teams, whistled, and cheered on the players in the car windows.

It doesn't matter if you're a Manchester City fan or a Barcelona fan.

In their hearts, their teams are definitely the best.

Especially Manchester City fans. Originally, Manchester City fans were quite happy that their team could reach the Champions League final, but there are also many rational Manchester City fans who think that although they have reached the final, as the media said, they still lack experience. Therefore, they are not very confident whether Manchester City can beat Barcelona.

But when Cruyff provoked the siege against Manchester City, Manchester City fans were enraged. At this time, they didn't care whether Manchester City lacked experience or not. They just wanted Manchester City to beat Barcelona, ​​so they slapped Cruyff hard!

It is not easy to reach the Champions League final, the ghost will regard the Champions League final as accumulating experience, and save it for the process of winning the championship next time... That is too extravagant!
All they want is to beat Barcelona in one game and win the UEFA Champions League!
These fans shouted at the Manchester City bus: "Beat Barcelona! Give them some color!"

"Let them regret it!"

"Manchester City is invincible!"

Manchester City's players waved to them.

They have come all the way, and the support of the fans is indispensable.

The same scene also happened when the Barcelona players arrived at the stadium, and the Barcelona fans were also determined to win this game.

Judging from the analysis of various aspects before the game, Barcelona is more dominant. Why do they think that Manchester City may have a chance?
When the Barcelona bus arrived, the Barcelona fans collectively chanted the names of their heroes.

"Messi! Messi! Messi!!"

Their voices got louder as Macy waved at them through the car window.

All Barcelona fans pin their hopes of beating Manchester City on Messi.

They also believe that Messi will not let them down, because Messi's state is really good this season, which is so good that everyone did not expect it.

It seems that after being continuously suppressed by Rong Guang, Messi is finally about to explode!
Since last season, Barcelona fans have been unhappy with Rongguang, because Rongguang doesn't think Messi is his opponent, so blatantly looking down on others, he must accept punishment!
Barcelona fans hope to slap Rong Guang in the face through Messi!
Let him know that now he is not worthy to be Messi's opponent!

Players from both sides got out of the car amid the cheers of the fans, and then walked into their respective locker rooms.

Even with the door closed, the shouts and singing from outside can be clearly heard.

Barcelona fans and Manchester City fans battled through the sound from the stands outside.

It seems that whoever has the loudest voice and can overwhelm the other will win the game.

This is especially true when players from both sides go out to warm up.

Fans on both sides are desperately cheering for their teams.Especially when Rong Guang and Messi got the ball, the cheers in the stands would suddenly increase.

The two are the focus of everyone's attention when they are warming up.

Everyone wants to know how these two are in this game through the warm-up before the game.

Messi took the ball at the front of the penalty area. After taking two steps slowly, he suddenly kicked and shot.

Although goalkeeper Valdez has concentrated his attention and lowered the center, he still can't do anything about Messi's shot. His body soars into the air and his arms are stretched as far as possible, but he still can't touch the football.The football flicked over his finger, and then flew into the goal along the lower edge of the crossbar, dead end!

The Barcelona fans in the stands saw this and cheered loudly, as if Messi had scored in the game.

The host of the Catalan TV station who was broadcasting live on the sidelines was also very excited. After Messi scored a goal, she couldn't help screaming in excitement: "Messi! Messi! It's great! I love you!"

It made the male hosts in the live broadcast room at the back laugh, but he was also happy with Messi's state: "It can be seen from this shot that Messi is in good condition today. I think we can expect more from him in the game..."

After Messi scored a very beautiful goal, everyone turned their attention to Rongguang, wanting to see what performance he would show to counter Messi.

However, Rong Guang was just warming up with his teammates normally. Even in shooting practice, there were no shocking goals. Two goals were also very common. They couldn't be compared with Messi's dead corner goal.

On the contrary, Manchester City's teammates were all worried about Rongguang. When goalkeeper Joe Hart threw the football to Rongguang, he even shouted at him: "Beautiful kick!"

Rong Guang still made a decent shot, and Joe Hart easily caught the ball.

"Hey, Rong!" He waved to Rong Guang.

Rong Guang waved his hand.

Until the end of the warm-up, Rong Guang did not kick a shot that could shock the Barcelona fans.

The cheers of the Barcelona fans in the stands became louder, and the Manchester City fans were somewhat disappointed-Messi is leading the glory in the scorer list, and they still hope that the glory can be tit-for-tat...

When Messi scored a goal, they even imagined many wonderful and refreshing scenes in their minds. For example, Rong Guang kicked the football to the crossbar, then the football bounced back and he volleyed, hit the crossbar again, bounced back, and he continued to volley.

It was so shocking that all Barcelona fans opened their mouths and couldn't make a sound!
But none of this happened.

On the contrary, the singing of the Barcelona fans became louder and louder, and their arrogance became more and more arrogant.

After finishing the warm-up and walking into the tunnel, the singing of the Barcelona fans could be clearly heard, while the voices of the Manchester City fans were relatively quieter.

Joe Hart caught up with Rong Guang and patted him on the shoulder: "Rong, you really should have kicked the world wave just now!"

Rong Guang turned his head and smiled: "An own goal?"

"Warm up, what are you afraid of?"

"That's right, warm up. What's the point of scoring a beautiful goal?" Rong Guang spread his hands.

"Uh..." Joe Hart found that what Rong Guang said was so reasonable that he was speechless.

"Don't worry, they won't win this game." Rong Guang patted Joe Hart on the shoulder who had nothing to say.

In the last period of time before the start of the game, various TV stations are inviting guests to make a final outlook and analysis on the game.

Many people think that at first glance, the two teams are roughly evenly matched, but this is not the case.

Barcelona still has an advantage.

In the past, Barcelona's only shortcoming against Manchester City was the superstar's personal strength. Messi was always close to glory. The two rounds of matches between the two sides last season well illustrated this point.

But this season, Messi has had a big explosion in the Champions League.

This fills in the only gap between Barcelona and Manchester City. In addition, Barcelona's overall strength in other positions is stronger than Manchester City, so Barcelona is actually more dominant than Manchester City.

During the warm-up before the game, Messi's state also made everyone more confident in Barcelona.

In comparison, Rongguang's side is going to be a little quieter.

So can Messi continue his excellent state in the warm-up to the official game?

In the locker room, Benitez looked around at his players. When he decided to come to Manchester City to coach, he never thought that he would be able to lead the team to the Champions League final so soon.

Now, standing on the top stage of European football, it stands to reason that he should have a lot to say, but looking at these players, especially when his eyes fell on Rong Guang, he suddenly didn't know what to say.

Finally, he looked at Rong Guang: "Rong, can you say a few words?"

Rong Guang was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the head coach Benitez would ask him, the captain, to speak directly. The other players also looked at Benitez in surprise.

"I want to hear what you have to say at this time, Rong." Benitez said blankly.

"This..." Rong Guang was a little embarrassed, but he didn't refuse, but stood up slowly.

He looked at his teammates, and they all looked at him.

Rong Guang scratched his head, and then said: "Actually, I don't know what to say. I think the most important thing in a football game is not to speak beautifully, but to win. Victory does not depend on words, otherwise those reporters may be the best at playing football. All I want to say is one sentence - since I have come to the finals, I don't want to go back with a runner-up!"
