Chapter 632 The 3rd Champions League Final

The 2012-2013 Premier League season has come to an end, and the media have begun their final work. They are busy summarizing the season that has just ended.

Manchester United defended their league title, their third three-peat in the Premier League era. Blue Moon Manchester City's challenge to Manchester United's supremacy failed miserably again.

Van Persie scored 26 goals in his first season at Manchester United, and the Dutchman won the hearts of Manchester United fans.

These are worth reporting.

Of course, Bale has scored more than 40 goals in the league for three consecutive seasons and won the Premier League Golden Boot for four consecutive seasons, which is the focus of the report.

However, Bale's failure to win the European Golden Boot for three consecutive years also attracted considerable media attention. The Premier League season has ended, but there are still two rounds of La Liga games, and Messi is still 5 goals ahead of Bale, and the European Golden Boot is very safe.

This is the first time in the past three seasons that someone has been able to steal the title of top scorer from Bell!

There are many stories to tell in the summary and reporting of a season. This is the happiest time for media reporters, because they will never lack news materials, as long as they consider whether the page space is sufficient.

Bell has no time to pay attention to the enthusiasm from the media around the world. He is now preparing for the Champions League with the whole team.

If they can win this Champions League title, not only can Manchester United become the fourth team in the history of the Champions League to win the Champions League three or more times in a row, but they can also surpass their arch-rival Liverpool and become the third team with the most titles in the history of the Champions League. .

After several days of training, early in the morning on May 23, the entire Manchester United team took a train to London to participate in the Champions League final that started two days later.

Because in the Champions League final two years ago, Manchester United also took a train to London, and eventually defeated Barcelona to win the championship. Sir Alex believed that this brought good luck to Manchester United, so they still took the train this time.

………………

After arriving in London, Manchester United borrowed Tottenham's training base to conduct training and preparations for the two days before the game.

There are many teams in London, but Tottenham and Manchester United have the best relationship, so even if the conditions at Tottenham's training base are not the best, the two teams have still reached cooperation.

At about the same time, Bayern also arrived in London.

The Champions League final is getting closer!

There are more and more reports about the Champions League around the world, and reports on the worth of both parties are a very important one.

This is a real game worth over one billion euros!

According to the value of "Transfer Market", as the most popular team in the world, the total value of Manchester United's 25 first-team players is as high as 628 million euros, of which Bell alone is worth as much as 150 million euros. Rooney (55 million), Robin van Persie (50 million), Sneijder (50 million), Modric (50 million), De Gea (38 million) and other five people are also worth more than 30 million euros.

In addition, Manchester United players worth more than 10 million euros include Carrick, Pogba, Hernandez, Welbeck, Ashley Young, Kante, Valencia, Small Eleven players including Lin, Phil Jones, Rafael, and Evans, as well as several veterans in the entire Manchester United squad, including Giggs, Scholes, Vidic, Ferdinand, Evra, etc. And Fletcher, who has lacked performance opportunities in Manchester United this season, and the two backup goalkeepers are not worth more than 10 million euros.

Bayern's overall value is lower than Manchester United, but their lineup is also very luxurious. As the hottest team in the Bundesliga this season and one of the world's top clubs, Bayern Munich's entire team is worth as much as 432 million.

Among them, Franck Ribery, the team's league leader in assists (15 times), is worth 42 million, ranking first in the team. Stars worth more than 30 million include Muller (37 million), Gomez (35 million), Schweinsteiger (35 million), Kroos (32 million), Neuer (30 million) and Martin Six players including Ness (30 million), and seven players in the team are worth more than 30 million.

One more than Manchester United.

………………

Amid much anticipation, May 25, 2013, the final day of the 2013-2014 UEFA Champions League, arrived.

Whether Manchester United defeated Bayern and became the first team to win three consecutive Champions League titles since the restructuring of the Champions League, or whether Bayern defeated Manchester United and became the seventh team in the history of European football to win the club's Triple Crown. The answer is about to be revealed!

Before the game started, there was a brief but enthusiastic performance. Afterwards, players from both sides came to the court to warm up, and then returned to the locker room for final preparations.

finally……

When the Italian referee Rizzoli held the Champions League final ball and two assistant referees led the players from both sides out of the tunnel, the UEFA Champions League theme song sounded on the live broadcast.

This theme song will be played before every UEFA Champions League game. Bale is already very familiar with this song, and having participated in two UEFA Champions League finals, he is also very familiar with the atmosphere of the game, so he appears to be very calm. .

For today's starting lineup, Ferguson decided to trust experienced players in the selection of Manchester United's defense. Ferdinand and Vidic partnered as central defenders, so Bell did not wear the captain's armband.

As the team's top star, Bell stands at the back of the team. In front of him is strike partner Robin van Persie.

However, Bell found that Van Persie in front of him was a little nervous. He also understands this somewhat, after all, this is Van Persie's first Champions League final.

Originally, Van Persie had a chance to participate in the Champions League final. That was seven years ago, when Arsenal reached the Champions League final, fought fiercely with Barcelona at the Stade de France in Paris, and ultimately lost.

At that time, Van Persie was regarded as Arsenal's rotation player and also entered Arsenal's final list. Unfortunately, he failed to get a chance to play in the end.

At the age of 30, he only ushered in the first Champions League final of his career. It was inevitable that Van Persie was excited.

It's okay to be nervous and excited, but it's best not to affect your game state. However, Bell believes that based on Van Persie's experience, there should be no such problem.

………………

Players from both sides lined up and took photos. Then they shake hands and greet each other.

"Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides. Manchester United's formation is 433, with goalkeeper De Gea, the four backs are Rafael, Vidic, Ferdinand and Evra, and the three midfielders are Carrick and Modric. With Sneijder, Bale, Robin van Persie and Rooney up front."

"Bayern's lineup is also very neat. In this game, Heynckes does not have to worry about injuries at all. Except for Badstuber and Kroos, who have already been retired for the season, almost all of Bayern's main lineup has been sent by the old coach. The combination of Robery, Muller and Mandzukic occupy the midfield. Martinez and Bastian Schweinsteiger partner in the double midfielder. Ram, Boateng, Dante and Alaba are on the back line from right to Line up on the left. The goalkeeper is undoubtedly Neuer. Their formation is 4231."

When the CCTV commentator began to introduce the starting lineups of both sides, Manchester United captain Vidic and Bayern captain Lahm were performing routine ceremonies on the court.

The two captains shook hands, exchanged team flags, and guessed sides.

Manchester United captain Vidic guessed the coin, the Red Devils won the right to pick the edge, and Bayern won the right to kick off.

Next, the players from both sides stood in their respective positions according to the formation arranged by the head coach, waiting for the game to start.

Bale and Van Persie stood in the center circle, his expression calm.

In front of Bell, Van Persie also looked very calm. He had already recovered from the excitement of entering the stadium. He only had eyes for the opponent and Bayern's goal.

There is only one thought in his mind now: to score goals!

Help the team defeat Bayern and win the Champions League trophy!

Stand on top of Europe!

………………

Italian referee Rizzoli is using a headset to conduct final communications with his assistants. Then Rizzoli looked at the chronograph on his wrist.

Then he raised his hands and blew the whistle.

The moment the whistle sounded, the stands of the new Wembley Stadium flashed with lights, like a bright and vast Milky Way.

"The game begins!"

"Rizzoli blew the whistle!"

"The whistle blows for the Champions League final!"

"The finals have begun!"

Amid the excited shouts from countless commentators around the world and the deafening cheers at the scene, the UEFA Champions League final of the 2012-2013 season has officially begun!

………………

After the game started, ten minutes passed quickly in the warm atmosphere.

Heynckes noticed that Manchester United appeared relatively conservative from the beginning of the game and adopted defensive counterattack tactics. He was not too surprised by this. Manchester United could guess that Bayern would use the opening attack, which is normal.

This situation is also under consideration by Heynckes. He is not too worried because Manchester United has always played very openly at their home stadium. Although the current venue is not Old Trafford, Manchester United's home stadium, But in a sense, the new Wembley Stadium is not much different from Manchester United's home stadium.

Ferguson's team still advocates offense at its core.

Bayern is happy to see the results of Manchester United's pressure to attack, so that they can seize the space after Manchester United's pressure and look for scoring opportunities.

In the 21st minute of the game, Boateng directly launched a big-foot transfer attack from the back line. Bastian Schweinsteiger stopped the ball on his chest and passed it to Robben. The latter broke through with the ball, trying to get past the card guarding him. After Rick failed, he passed the ball to Muller. Muller passed a high ball into the penalty area. Mandzukic reached out to stop the ball in Ferdinand's defense. However, the stop was too big and the football was easily obtained by Manchester United goalkeeper De Gea.

Overwhelming boos rang out over the new Wembley Stadium, as well as sarcastic curses from Manchester United fans, all directed at Mandzukic.

Although UEFA allocated the same number of tickets to both sides, 25,000. But in fact, there were obviously more Manchester United fans than Bayern fans at the new Wembley Stadium.

Anyway, this game is in the UK!

Therefore, this is also equivalent to Manchester United's home court!
