Chapter 316
When the Inter players came out to warm up, the Manchester United players were already warming up.
Seeing the Inter players come out, the Inter fans in the stands at the Luzhniki Stadium erupted in huge cheers.
The fan leader in the stands led the Inter Milan fans to shout in unison with all their strength: Inter Milan - Champion, Champion, Champion!
Not to be outdone, Manchester United fans have come up with what they do best – singing!
Manchester United's anthem began to resound at the Luzhniki Stadium.
Although the game has not started yet, it is just a warm-up, but the atmosphere in the stadium is already very hot.
And the commentators on the commentary seat have also entered the working state.
"This is Moscow's famous Luzhniki Stadium, where the 2007/2008 UEFA Champions League final will be held here today in front of fans from all over the world. "Huaxia CCTV Sports Channel broadcast the game live, at this moment, the commentator He Wei is shouting at the top of his voice, and the scene is very loud.
"Inter Milan will wear the away white shirt for this game, while Manchester United will wear their home red shirt. ”
"Before the game, there was news that Manchester United's star Cristiano Ronaldo was unwell and may be on the bench, however, judging from the warm-up just now, Cristiano Ronaldo's body does not look like a problem, which also proves that the previous news is more like a smokescreen on Manchester United's side. ”
The commentators of various countries are starting to explain from their different perspectives, and the attention of the UEFA Champions League final is no less than that of the World Cup or the European Cup final, which can be seen from the huge number of commentary seats.
At this moment, outside the Luzhniki Stadium, there are dozens of satellite TV live broadcast vehicles of famous sports television stations from all over the world, which are lined up in a majestic row, which is very spectacular.
***********
"The entire Luzhniki Stadium is full. He Wei sighed.
"That's right, when we came in, we saw a huge number of fans gathered outside the stadium, they didn't get tickets, but they still came to Moscow, even outside the stadium, they were willing to be closer to the final, closer to their beloved team, to cheer for their beloved team. Duan Xuan said.
'Well, we can see that the warm-up is coming to an end, and by this time we have already got the starting line-up for both sides. "Let's take a look at the starting line-up, starting with Manchester United. ”
Manchester United line-up (4-4-2): 1 Van der Sar, 6 Brown, 5 Rio Ferdinand, 15 Vidic, 22 O'Shea, 16 Carrick, 18 Scholes, 4 Hargreaves, 7 C. Ronaldo, 10 Rooney, 32 Tevez
"The goalkeeper is the old Dutch goalkeeper Van der Sar, a 38-year-old goalkeeper who is still doing well this season. ”
'At right-back, Ferguson opted for the ferocious Wes Brown. ”
At left-back, Alex Ferguson opted for Irishman John O'Shea. He Wei continued.
"Speaking of O'Shea, he's arguably the panacea for Manchester United, and fans joke that this is an all-around star who has really played in all positions. Duan Xuan interjected with a smile.
He's right, O'Shea came through the Manchester United Academy and has a very 'rich' resume, having made a name for himself in 2002/2003 as a left-back, right-back and centre-back, and in 2004/2005 he was discovered by Alex Ferguson for more style. He switched to a central midfield and in the second half of the game against Arsenal, he obediently slotted his left foot past the goalkeeper and the ball flew straight into the corner. Subsequently, because of the arrival of Carrick, O'Shea's playing time gradually decreased, and his position was relatively more forward, during which O'Shea played as a central midfielder and two wings, and completed the task well. In the 2006/2007 season, Manchester United travelled to Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane. At the end of the game, when Manchester United ran out of substitutions and with no one available, O'Shea bravely played as goalkeeper and successfully blocked a crazy comeback from Tottenham Hotspur in the final 15 minutes to help United beat their opponents 4-0. And in the past 2007/2008 season, in Manchester United's first league game against Reading, due to Rooney Rooney's injury, Manchester United did not have a striker available, Ferguson sent O'Shea for the first time, he let O'Shea play as a central striker, the most amazing thing is that O'Shea almost received Fletcher's pass in the final stage to score, but unfortunately the football hit the post.
The centre-back duo is a combination of Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic, who are also considered to be the most consistent part of United's backline, with both Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic named in the Premier League Team of the Season. ”
'In midfield, Ferguson's options are No.16 Carrick, as well as veteran, No.18 Paul Scholes and England international No.4 Hargreaves, who moved to Manchester United from Bayern Munich, and of course, Manchester United's number one star Cristiano Ronaldo!
In the forward line, Ferguson opted for two modest striker configurations, England international Wayne Rooney, who is 178cm tall, and Argentine star Carlos Tevez, who is 171cm tall. ”
***********
"Then there's the starting line-up for Inter. ”
"On the goalkeeper side, it is Brazilian goalkeeper Cesar, with his outstanding performance at Inter Milan, Cesar has squeezed out the city rival AC Milan goalkeeper Dida and has become the No. 1 goalkeeper of the Brazilian national team. ”
At right-back, Leon chose Inter Milan captain Javier Zanetti, and it was clear that in such a fierce final, Leon chose the experienced veteran and did not choose the more impactful McConn. ”
"At left-back, French star Patrice Evra is a well-deserved starter, and under Leon's leadership, the French star has grown into one of the best left-backs in football today, and he has become another testament to Leon's discernment. ”
"The centre-back duo is the familiar combination of Samuel and Zivo, and it is also the most trusted centre-back duo for Inter Milan at the moment. ”
In midfield, Juan Carlos was undoubtedly the start, along with Croatian star Luka Modric, Spanish star Juan Mata and his fellow Spaniard David Silva. The biggest question when discussing Inter's starting line-up ahead of the game was whether Leon would choose David Silva or Arshavin...... Leon chose David Silva in the end. ”
In the 2007/2008 Serie A season, Adriano and Diego Milito tied for the top scorer, which is also the first time in history that two players from a team have won the Serie A Golden Boot, which also shows the horror of Inter Milan's offensive energy. ”
