heir to the red devil

Chapter 321
Between Manchester and Madrid, the straight-line distance is 1459 kilometers, and it takes about two and a half hours by plane.

The Manchester United soldiers came to the Bernabeu one day in advance to prepare for the next day's game.

After getting off the plane, the Manchester United players were blinded by the blinding sunshine of Madrid.

At this time, Smalling said to De Gea enviously: "Such a good sunshine is rare in Manchester, you happy Spaniards."

And De Bruyne said with emotion: "When I was in London, I might not see such good weather once a year."

When Jin Taige saw such a good weather, he was also quite touched.

Many Spaniards who play in the Premier League, Serie A, etc., most of them are not very adapted to the weather in other countries, so many Spanish stars who became famous abroad still want to return to China to play; and many Argentine and Brazilian stars, they The La Liga teams and the La Liga are what they yearn for the most. In addition to the Latin language, the excellent climate here is also one of the reasons why they favor it.

While the Manchester United soldiers were staying at the hotel, Real Madrid coach Ancelotti held a pre-match press conference. At the press conference, Ancelotti issued a victory declaration.

"At the Bernabéu Stadium, no one can take away Real Madrid's victory. Real Madrid will beat every enemy who comes to challenge! Real Madrid will adopt an open offensive style of play in this game, dedicated to the home fans. victory!"

Coach Ancelotti is usually steady, but today he also said such confident words.What he said was entirely to motivate Real Madrid players.

The current situation of Real Madrid is very similar to that of Manchester United. They are under the double pressure of the league and the Champions League.Although the UEFA Champions League has entered the semi-finals, the league situation is still anxious. Atletico Madrid, Barcelona and Real Madrid are currently ranked in the top three of the standings. Their point difference is only three points. The outcome of any league game is possible Determines the ownership of the La Liga champions.So Real Madrid, like Manchester United, not only needs to deal with the Champions League semi-finals, but also try to grab points in the league.

Facing Ancelotti's declaration of victory, Kintag also made bold remarks at the press conference after adapting to training at the Bernabeu the next morning: "I don't really care about what kind of style Real Madrid is going to adopt. I suggest that Real Madrid better focus more on La Liga, because the Champions League trophy will belong to Manchester United! Manchester United will take away a victory at the Bernabeu!"

Before the game started, the coaches of both sides were already at war.

Today's game was played at night. When the Manchester United players stepped into the Bernabéu stadium, they all had a strange feeling.This stadium has a large area and can accommodate more than 1000 fans, which is about 5000 more than Old Trafford.The entire stadium is very beautifully decorated. Under the lighting, it is not as beautiful as a stadium, nor does it look like the UEFA Champions League semi-final will be held in a while. Looking at the venue, it looks like a star concert will be held here.

Although the Bernabéu stadium is very luxurious, it is not these things that really surprised Manchester United soldiers.Usually at Old Trafford, you can hear the huge cheers from the fans before you walk out of the player tunnel, but in this level of competition, the fans' voices are even more intense.The Bernabéu is bigger than the Old Trafford Stadium and can accommodate about 5000 more people.Today, the Bernabéu is overcrowded. Although the game still has an hour to start, the stands are already filled with 80% of the fans.

Even so, there was not much cheering in the entire Bernabeu, and the entire stadium seemed a little quiet.

Several young players who came here for the first time were very surprised.

De Bruyne asked curiously: "Why are the fans here so quiet?"

Salah was also very puzzled: "I don't know, maybe the fan atmosphere of the Spanish team is like this?"

Not to mention the young players, even Kintag, who came to the Bernabéu for the first time, was very surprised.

At this time, the assistant coach Scholes explained: "Compared with fans in many places, the Bernabéu home fans are relatively civilized. They have always been proud of their aristocratic temperament, and they show elegance all the time. Except for the national derby In this case, Real Madrid fans will be excited, otherwise they will put on a high posture like now, with the mentality of admiring football and waiting for victory, not in a hurry Watching the game without slowing down. This is the biggest characteristic of Real Madrid fans."

Jin Taige frowned: "You mean, Real Madrid fans don't think highly of us Manchester United?"

Scholes nodded: "Although this makes people uncomfortable, it is true. Take last season's Champions League as an example, we met Real Madrid in the quarter-finals, and finally Real Madrid defeated us with a total score of 3-2. Knocked out and qualified for the quarter-finals of the Champions League. So for Real Madrid fans, we are just the opponents they have beaten."

After Jin Taige heard this, he clenched his fists tightly: "Since they dare to look down on us, let them see how powerful we are!"

At this time, all the players from both sides came to the center of the field to warm up before the game. Kim Taeg came to the sidelines, watched the players train, and thought about the game for a while.

"Coach Tiger, hello."

Jin Taige suddenly heard someone talking behind him, he turned around, and it turned out to be Ancelotti.

This is the first time the two have met. Kintag was still coaching the youth team last season, while Ancelotti led Paris Saint-Germain to win the long-awaited league championship. The two had no intersection at all.

Today, when Jin Taige saw Ancelotti in front of him, he was stunned for a moment and did not speak.

Ancelotti looked at Jin Taige with great interest: "Coach Tiger, you look younger than your actual age. I really admire you. In the first year of your debut coaching a giant, you were able to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League. It’s an amazing achievement.”

At this time, Jin Taige also reacted, and he replied politely: "It is my honor to be praised by a world-renowned coach like you."

"Hopefully today will be a good game."

"definitely is."

Just looking at the friendly conversation between the two of them, it seemed like old friends they hadn't seen for a long time, and there was no atmosphere of tension at all.

But both of them are very clear in their hearts: this game is very important, it is related to which team can advance to the next round in the end, it is related to whether they can gain an advantage, and then they can share some pressure on the league.

So this game is inevitable for both teams!
