Football: The Strongest Hexagon Warrior

There were about ten minutes left before the start of the game. Players from both teams came to the tunnel from their respective locker rooms.

Since there was a traditional theatrical performance in the middle of the court before the start of the final, the substitutes did not go to their respective benches, but stayed in the tunnel.

Players from both sides had little interaction, so there was no communication before the game.

They are all standing in their respective queues, waiting to enter the venue.

Martin looked at Sevilla captain Reyes and couldn't help but think of the future news, but he hesitated to speak.

After thinking for a while, I decided not to say anything.

The two of them were unfamiliar with each other and didn't know what to say or how to speak.

Anyway, they all have their own destiny.

If there is a chance in the future, I can give a hint.

Not long after, as the Europa League theme song "By-Yohann-Zveig" sounded from the speakers at the National Stadium in Warsaw, Wolfsburg and Sevilla, the two sides of the Europa League final, followed the referee Atkinson on duty. Enter the pitch.

The packed Europa League final venue created a tsunami of violent shouts, one wave after another.

Reporters in the mixed zone took photos of the players from both sides with their cameras.

The players from the two teams had a tacit understanding and didn't even look at the championship trophy placed at the entrance of the tunnel.

Obviously, they are afraid that after watching it, they will be unable to help but touch the trophy and trigger a curse.

Martin, who was following his teammates, also didn't look at the trophy. He shook his head while listening to the Europa League theme song.

The rhythm of the music is not as strong as the Champions League theme song, and it lacks that exciting sense of déjà vu.

It was like watching a normal concert, with calm emotions.

But then again, songs like the Champions League theme song "Champions League" are rare.

One classic is enough.

The north and south stands are dedicated to Wolfsburg fans and Sevilla fans.

Fans from both sides are very particular and hang huge Tifos in the stands to show fans around the world their huge support for their respective teams.

Players from both teams concentrated and held their breath with the referee team standing on the midline facing the main stand as the center.

In the middle of the field behind them is a huge circular mop with the Europa League logo.

Multiple volunteers shook the mop vigorously according to the melody of the Europa League theme song "By-Yohann-Zveig", forming a wavy pattern with great visual impact.

In both halves, there were volunteers holding aloft the team emblems of both sides of the Europa League final spread out.

The theme song ended and the players from both sides shook hands.

Then each team chooses a half, and the whole team takes a starting group photo.

The captain holds the team flag and goes to the center line facing the main stand.

The referee team is already waiting.

The captains of both teams, Benaglio and Reyes, shook hands, exchanged commemorative team flags, then shook hands with the referee team and finally guessed the ball.

While the two teams were going through the necessary pre-match rituals, the TV commentators with the rights to broadcast the Europa League final took the time to report the starting lineup to the fans watching the live broadcast based on the starting lineup given by the broadcaster.

Wolfsburg, who won the home team's draw, still uses the usual 4231 formation.

Goalkeeper: Benaglio (C)

Defenders: Ricardo Rodriguez, Naldo, Knoch, Sebastian Jung

Midfielder: Gustavo, Martin

Midfielders: Schürrle, De Bruyne, Vierinha

Forward: Dost

The starting lineup given by Sevilla is also the popular 4231 in world football.

Goalkeeper: Rico

Defenders: Tremulina, Kovodzejczak, Carrizo, Alex Vidal

Midfielder: Krychowiak, Mbia

Midfielder: Reyes (C), Banega, Vitolo

Forward: Bacca

……

By the time PP Sports commentator Zhan Jun finished naming the starting lineups of the two teams according to the starting lineups given by the broadcaster, the ball guessing ceremony had been completed before the game.

The commercial for the official sponsor Heineken was played for a short time. The starting 11 players of the two teams stood in their respective half-courts, stood in formation, and waited for Atkinson to blow the whistle to start the game.

The frenzied atmosphere at the National Stadium in Warsaw has dropped to a minimum, obviously... this is the fans preparing for the next game.

The close-ups of the live broadcast switched to the star players of both sides of the game.

Sevilla’s Reyes, Banega, Bacca…

Wolfsburg players De Bruyne, Martin, Vierinha, Dost, etc...

When the broadcast screen was shown to Martin, the commentator Zhan Jun said loudly: "Through the live broadcast of the game, we can clearly see that Martin's mental outlook is very good. I think... there will definitely be better players in the next Europa League finals." Performance, just like the one that helped Wolfsburg defeat their opponents in the DFB-Pokal final six days ago!"

"I think at this moment, there should be millions of Dragon Country fans watching the live broadcast of this game, right?"

Guest commentator Li Yuankui couldn't help but ask.

"Beep~"

At this moment, the referee Atkinson looked down at the time on his watch. It was just eight o'clock in the evening, and he decisively blew his whistle.

"aoaooaoooooo——"

For the first time, more than 2014 fans tacitly let out a huge roar, adding to the fanatical atmosphere of the 2015- Europa League final.

Bacca handed the ball to Reyes, and Dost, who was at the forefront of Wolfsburg's forward line, took the lead and pounced.

Reyes has become famous at a young age and has very rich game experience. Naturally, he will not be frightened by Dost's attack.

He remained calm, flicked his right ankle, and handed the ball to Banega, letting him decide how to handle the rest of the football.

Sevilla's overall formation expands with the width of the pass, and the official formation 4231 looks more like 433.

The double defensive midfielders Korychowiak and Mbia took the initiative to approach Banega during the attack, giving greater support to Bacca, Bitolo and Reyes in the forward line.

After multiple passes, the football came to Reyes' feet.

Although he is over 30 years old and his speed is not as brave as before, his skills with his feet are still delicate and his dribbling ability is extremely strong.

The ball has an elegant style and remains extremely lethal in ground attacks.

Sending precise passes to teammates is one of Reyes' sharpest weapons.

Martin serves as the right midfielder, and Reyes holds the ball and looks for opportunities to attack the left rib.

Their positions were naturally intertwined.

Reyes watched a lot of Martin's game videos and highlights before the game and knew that the young man in front of him was extremely capable of single defense.

At the age of 32, his speed and explosive power have seriously declined. Forcing a breakthrough is not advisable, so he mainly cooperates with his teammates.

"Reyes was the speed king of La Liga when he debuted. Figo and Zidane, who were playing for Real Madrid at the time, were amazed by his performance and said that he was playing football on an invisible motorcycle. He was past his thirties and had lost his biggest support. He is fast but has a calmer mind. I believe the next game will be very exciting..."

PP sports commentator Zhan Jun shouted with excitement.
