In the away dressing room at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium, the Arsenal players sat around Arsene Wenger with expressions of great solemnity on their faces. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 With the FA Cup final about to start in earnest and Tottenham Hotspur, a century-old rival, the game against them, they can't help but take this game seriously.

"Damn, why did we get into the away dressing room and let the Tottenham guys rest in the better conditions of the home team's dressing room?" Although we have not performed well this season and have been overwhelmed by Tottenham in the league, we are the second-most Premier League team in the Premier League, and we are much higher than Tottenham Hotspur, who have not won a Premier League!"

"It can't be helped, who let Tottenham have Speed in the team, the Welshman, to make them more popular here. And their manager, George Nelson, is also from Manchester United, so he can get involved with Ryan Giggs, the Wales' number one star. In such a situation, in order to better attract nearby fans to watch the game and ensure the attendance of the stadium, the organizers will definitely take more care of the Tottenham side. Hearing the complaints of his captain and compatriot, Piret couldn't help but smile wryly and whispered Vieira.

Compared to the short-tempered Vieira and the introverted Thierry Henry, the low-key and gentle Piret not only played a very important role at the tactical level, but also served as a glue for the Arsenal French gang. In George's previous life, since Pire's departure on a free transfer, the French gang, which was once famous at Arsenal, has completely fallen apart. Although the younger generation such as Flamini, Clich, Sagna, Diaby and Nasri tried to take over the mantle left by their predecessors, they were unable to keep the French gang's reputation alive in the Premier League. This shows how important Pire is to the current Arsenal team.

Hearing Pire's explanation, Vieira couldn't help but be silent. Indeed, while on the surface, Cardiff's Millennium Stadium is a neutral venue for both Tottenham and Arsenal, in reality, through the relationship between Ryan Giggs and Speed, Tottenham are clearly favored and cared for more than Arsenal.

Not to mention, even from the perspective of business and self-interest, the appointment of Ledley King as the captain of the team, has unearthed Ashton, Dawson, Bynes and many other local new stars, and George, the local bigwig, Tottenham Hotspur, is more valued by the FA than Arsenal, which is called a multinational force by the media and only Ashley Cole can handle the local academy. So, it's not for nothing that Tottenham occupy the home team's dressing room for this game.

Don't underestimate the difference between the dressing rooms where the players are. It is important to know that the quality and comfort of the dressing room environment can affect the mentality of the players to a certain extent, which in turn has a corresponding impact on the course of the game (which is one of the reasons why most teams do not play as well on the road as they do at home).

Suffice it to say, Tottenham had already taken the lead off the pitch before the game began. It's up to the players to take advantage of that advantage and turn it into a win!

It didn't take long for players and managers from both sides to step onto the turf of Cardiff's Millennium Stadium under the leadership of referee Sdales. Prince Kent, who was already waiting in the stadium and attended the final as a guest of the British royal family, stood on the court and shook hands with the coaches and players of both sides after the opening ceremony!

"Viscount Nelson, what you have accomplished is really a shame on us old fellows. When it was George's turn to shake hands, Prince Michael Kent deliberately lowered his voice and said, "I sincerely hope that at the end of the game, you can lead Tottenham to beat Arsenal and stand on the championship podium!"

As a member of the British royal family, although Prince Kent has a much higher status than George, everyone knows that the British royal family is so poor that he can only count on the annual financial allocation from Parliament. Therefore, in the face of George, a rising star of the rich country, Prince Kent, who knows that the royal family has been trying to win over the other party, will naturally choose to favor Tottenham's side.

"Haha, borrow your auspicious words. Seeing this, George immediately replied with a smile, "After the Champions Cup final, I plan to visit Her Royal Highness Princess Anne and Her Majesty the Queen to discuss the preparations for the London Olympics and the purchase of Kensington Palace." ”

"That's really good news!" You know, for the poor British royal family, George is a god of wealth. For example, the London Olympics and Kensington Palace simply cannot afford these two huge financial expenditures. Now that George Ken has made it clear that he will bear these two expenses, how could Prince Kent not be overjoyed?

"Bah, the nobles are really not good goods, don't forget to talk about those dirty deals at this time!" Seeing George and the Prince of Kent talking happily on the sidelines, Vieira couldn't help but spat hard - since George was brought to court with a complaint after the North London derby two years ago, the Arsenal captain has completely hated each other!

While George and Prince Kent were talking, the ace duo of Andy Gray and Martin Taylor explained the upcoming final in the live broadcast room: "Good evening friends, the 2004-05 FA Cup final is about to be played between Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur! Tottenham are the defending champions of the FA Cup this season, while Arsenal have won the trophy twice in 01-02 and 02-03. It can be said that both teams have quite a lot of experience in winning the FA Cup. ”

"Today's FA Cup final is quite memorable for both Arsenal and Tottenham. Because this is the first time in the 133-year history of the FA Cup that the two rivals have gone head-to-head in the final!" Andy Gray asked Martin Taylor a question as he introduced the two sides of the match, "Martin, which side do you prefer to win this trophy?"

"Hmm...... Personally, I'm more optimistic that Tottenham will emerge as the winner. Martin Taylor pondered for a moment and gave his reply, "On the one hand, because Arsenal have never won against Tottenham once in the north London derby since coach George Nelson took over, which puts Wenger's team at a psychological disadvantage, and on the other hand, because Arsenal's forward ace Thierry Henry missed this final due to injury, so that the Gunners, who have lost their strongest firepower, are much less powerful in attack and difficult to pose enough threat to Tottenham's goal." ”

Martin Taylor's timing was just right. As soon as the ace commentator finished his analysis, Sdyles blew the whistle in his mouth, announcing that the first North London derby in the FA Cup history had officially begun!
