Chapter 529 The Strongest Lineup

Barcelona has already come to Madrid to prepare for the second round of the Champions League.

They have been in the limelight recently and have caught up with Atletico Madrid in the league. Every player has a smile on his face.

"I heard that Caesar is back?" Outside the training ground, Busquets got the latest news.

"It should be a hasty comeback. His injury healed so quickly?" Pedro said.

Pique said carelessly over there: "Whether it is a hasty comeback or not, I don't care, I can see through his fake moves anyway, and I will let him know that I am amazing."

"Can you stop bragging? When did you meet Caesar and you were abused?" Pedro and Pique have also been friends for many years, and they didn't spare any sympathy when they complained.

Pique "hummed" and didn't speak, and then looked at Messi, playing with the ball by himself.

"Leon, Caesar is back." Pique said to Messi, who said while juggling the ball: "I heard it."

"How to say?"

"Then what can I say, the game is still playing as usual, as long as we can win." Messi bumped a few times, and kicked Vilanova on the sidelines at will.

The ball drew an arc in the air, then fell to the ground, bounced twice, and passed between Vilanova's legs.

Vilanova, who was discussing tactics, suddenly saw a ball running out of his crotch, smiled slightly, and continued talking to the assistant coach.

Messi is usually reticent, but anyone who knows him knows that the usual reticence is because Messi is too lazy to speak, and the current silence is because Messi is thinking seriously.

He was thinking about how to defeat Caesar.

Last year's Ballon d'Or, Messi lost to Caesar in terms of honor. Although he scored 91 goals in the year, it is not worth mentioning in front of Caesar in the Grand Slam.

And when the two teams meet, Messi has never won against Caesar, which is the most embarrassing.

In the first half of this year, Caesar fell far behind him and Ronaldo in the number of goals, just like Atletico Madrid who is far ahead.

As a result, no one expected that Caesar was injured, which caused Atletico Madrid to decline in the current state, and was overtaken by Barcelona's latecomers, and the points were tied.

On the scorer list, Caesar's goals stayed at 45 goals, and Messi also scored 42 goals, and he will soon catch up.

In the last game, with the support of the home fans, Messi scored twice to help the team beat Atletico Madrid.But that is not the victory that Messi wants. What he wants is to defeat Atletico Madrid with Caesar, not to take advantage of the danger and bully Atletico Madrid while Caesar is not there.

In this way, winning is not honorable at all.

Although Messi doesn't like to talk usually, he is actually a proud person.He respects every one of his opponents and every game he wins.

It's not a perfect game, and he won't feel happy when he wins.

So when there were rumors that Caesar might not come back, Messi was a little irritable.Now that Caesar is determined to come back, a little spark has ignited in Messi's heart.

Come on, Caesar, let's have an upright contest this time!

On the day of the game, the sky in Madrid was a little hazy, as if it might rain at any time.

In another semi-final match the day before, Bayern beat Dortmund 2:1 at home, thereby eliminating the Hornets with a total score of 3:1 and advancing to the Champions League final for the second consecutive year.

Since the restructuring of the Champions League, no team has ever been able to complete the defense.That year, Juventus reached the finals for three consecutive years, but only won one championship.After that, Manchester United entered the final three times in four years, but lost to Barcelona twice.

And Bayern, after 2010 and 2012, also entered the final three times in four years. This time their goal is only one, defending the Champions League.

At this moment, the Bayern players are sitting in their homes, quietly waiting for the start of the game.

Bayern superstar Thomas Muller returned to his hometown in the countryside. The team was on vacation, and he also had the opportunity to go back to the countryside to see his cattle and sheep. In 2006, he was still an unknown person watching the World Cup with his village friends.As a result, he is now famous, and his habit of watching football with his friends has been maintained.

After finishing the farm work, Muller's family gathered friends from the village. Everyone opened the dark beer and prepared to watch the game.

Muller's wife, Lisa, is also one of the German wives. She is as young as Muller with a sweet appearance. Sitting in front of the fireplace, Lisa asked, "Which team do you want to win?"

Mueller said without hesitation: "Atletico Madrid."

"why?"

"Because they are stronger, isn't it more interesting to play against a stronger team?"

Just as they were talking, players from the two teams had already entered the field.

"They're here!"

Atletico Madrid's home court, the Calderón Stadium, immediately turned into a sea of ​​red and white. Everyone held a piece of red or white paper. The south stand was hung with a giant pattern. A western fire dragon was wearing an Atletico Madrid jersey, and a fork in his hand was fiercely inserted into a cake with the Barcelona team logo.

"Calderon's routine welcome ceremony! It's very spectacular! People can't help but look forward to how exciting this game will be!" The commentator is still Rudy. He is very happy to see Caesar's return. This time, the game will be extremely fierce.

"Introduce the starting rosters of both sides for this game!"

"The home team Atletico Madrid has a 4-4-2 lineup! Goalkeeper Courtois, the defense lined up from left to right are Felipe Luis, Godin, Miranda and Juan Forlan! Midfielder Captain Gabi and Chilean tough guy Vidal! The two wings are Koke and Turan! Forward Diego Costa, and Ludwig Kaiser who has just returned!!"

"Barcelona has also sent its strongest lineup! Goalkeeper Valdez! The defense line is Alba, Pique, Bartra and Alves! The midfielder's iron triangle Busquets, Xavi and Iniesta! Forward line, Messi partnered with Pedro and Sanchez, forming Barcelona's strongest attack group!"

"It can be seen that the two teams have come up with the stunt of pressing the bottom of the box, without any reservations! Especially Atletico Madrid at home, they have no way out, they must beat Barcelona today! For them, even if Caesar's comeback is undoubtedly very good news, Atletico Madrid with Caesar and Atletico Madrid without Caesar are simply two teams."

"Let's see! A banner was hung on Calderon's South Stand, which was given to all Barcelona players!"

"Caesar is haunted! Please pay attention to Barcelona!"

Caesar was in the Calderon Stadium, and all the cheers were given to him. Caesar was immersed in it and was very moved.

For these fans, this game must be won no matter what!

Caesar swore secretly in his heart, and at the same time, Messi who was opposite also looked over.

Game start!
