The New York Times reported on the front page for three consecutive days, further enhancing the impact of the Champions League final. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Especially on the third day, five world-renowned media personalities have made predictions about the upcoming Champions League final, not only the arrangement of the two managers, the technical and tactical play of the two teams, but also the prediction of the final champion.

As a result, three media personalities from the team, kicker and guardian all voted for Gao Han, while two reporters from the International Herald Leader voted for Ferguson of Manchester United.

It is clear that they believe that Ferguson's side are more tenacious and will not necessarily lose to Bayern Munich.

The three newspapers of the New York Times quickly attracted huge attention around the world, and were reprinted by newspapers large and small all over the world, especially the day before the Champions League final, and the discussion of who will win has become a topic that fans around the world are looking forward to.

But the answer to this question can only be found at the Olympic Stadium.

In addition to the report of the New York Times in the past three days, before the Champions League final, European football broke the news again.

Gao Han is on the cover of Time Magazine!

This is undoubtedly a great honor for a manager.

You know, almost all of the people who can make it to the cover of Time magazine are world-famous figures such as Obama, Steve Jobs and Osama bin Laden, and in football, no one has been able to make the cover of this magazine so far.

It can be said that Gao Han is the first of all time.

Time Magazine's title to Gao Han is also quite apt, the closest to the legend.

In the magazine, Time Magazine spoke highly of Gao Han, believing that he had never lost a game in the nine years since his debut, and that he was born from the grassroots and climbed all the way from the amateur league to the top of Europe.

"In the world of football, the UEFA Champions League has the influence of not losing to the World Cup, and is the supreme temple in the eyes of countless fans, and the manager who has won the most titles in the history of the Champions League is former Liverpool coach Paisley. ”

"This legendary coach led Liverpool to win three St. Bride Cups in 1977, 1978 and 1981 respectively, and three Champions League wins also made him the first person in the history of the Champions League. ”

"Among the current managers in European football, there are not many managers who have won the Champions League twice, only three, German coach Heathfeld, Spanish coach Bosque, and Chinese coach Gao Han. ”

"Of the three famous coaches, Heathfield is not young and has taken a back seat to coach the Swiss national team, while Bosque is the current head coach of the Spanish national team and is no longer in charge of the club. ”

In other words, among the coaches who have won two Champions Leagues but are still coaching in the professional league, Gao Han is the only one. ”

In addition to the two Champions League titles, Gao Han has won four League Cup titles, and he is also the first person in history. ”

In just nine years, Gao Han has transformed from an unknown to the world's top head coach, he has redefined the position of head coach to the world, and made everyone realize the importance of head coaching. ”

Now, with his Bayern Munich in charge, he will challenge for a third Champions League title in his managerial career, and if he wins this title, he will tie the legendary Paisley as the first man in the history of the Champions League and the first in the current service. ”

Time magazine can be said to be the most influential and authoritative news magazine in the world, and for a long time, no one in the football world has been able to appear in this magazine, Gao Han is the first in football history.

Before the Champions League final, he won such an honor, which made Gao Han the focus of all fans around the world.

In particular, the German media sang praises for Gao Han and reported on this incident, and the Bild newspaper even followed up and reported that this issue of Time magazine, which Gao Han appeared on the cover, was popular with fans all over the world, and it was sold out soon after it was listed, and it was hard to find a book.

But the news spread to the UK, and British media of all sizes have also reported on the historic event of Gao Han being on the cover of Time magazine, but the big war is imminent, and they will not boost Bayern Munich's arrogance and destroy the prestige of Manchester United, so they have poured some cold water on this craze.

It turned out that the cover of this issue of Gao Han was the European version of Time Magazine, although he is still the first person in history and has a great influence, but there is also a more influential and widespread local edition in the United States, which is the cover of Time Magazine in the real sense.

The German media immediately retaliated at this sour grape mentality of the British media, and it was very concise and to the point.

"Do you have any?"

But the British media was also very desperate, and quickly gave a counterattack, "We have it soon." ”

It turned out that they took out the old news that Manchester City invited Gao Han to coach once, and then took it out and hyped it again, and replied very confidently, we don't have it yet, but after digging Gao Han over, we have it.

As a result, the German and British media quarreled again.

Germany and England were originally enemies on the football field, and the media also looked down on each other, and now they are taking advantage of the cold to turn the world upside down?

On the contrary, Gao Han and Bayern Munich are all closed doors and are ready for the game.

It wasn't until he was on the plane to Rome that Gao Han read the newspaper when he had nothing to do, and he only knew about it, because he knew very well that if he lost the final, all the praise and praise would turn into ridicule and swearing.

…………

…………

"Hey, Marcus. ”

As the plane flew over 10,000 metres and Thomas Tuchel moved from the back row to the front row, in front of the manager's position, Gao Han was just in time to discuss things with the club's media director, Marcus Holvik, who stood up and prepared to leave.

"Hello, Thomas. ”

Marcus Holwick is the Director of Media and is responsible for the club's international coverage and media engagement, the most important of which is today's ceremony for the St. Bride's Cup.

This is the highlight of the Champions League final, with both managers and captains and key players attending, and before the ceremony, the managers of each team attend a pre-match press conference, which is very important.

It can be said that when it comes to Rome, Bayern Munich's every move will attract the attention of the whole world.

As the media director, Marcus Holvik has nearly 30 years of experience, but this time the club has made some adjustments in some details in order to distinguish it from '99, and he wants to communicate with Gao Han.

After sending Holwick away, Thomas Tuchel looked at Gao Han, "You're looking for me?"

Gao Han nodded and smiled, and pointed to the place where Holvik was sitting just now, indicating that Hull could sit down.

"There's something I'd like to ask your opinion on. Gao Han turned his head sideways and said softly.

He seemed to deliberately keep his voice low so that people in front of him, left and right would not hear him.

"What's the matter?" Tuchel asked, thinking he had something important to attend to, as he leaned over.

"Mainz in the Bundesliga, you must have understood, right?" asked Gao Han with a smile.

Tuchel nodded, "You know, we played in the semi-finals of the German Cup. ”

"Yes, this team hasn't been back in the Bundesliga for two seasons in a row, so at the end of the season, the manager Anderson will be out of class, and after the German Cup semi-final, their management has been in contact with me about it, they have consulted me, you know, their predecessor Jurgen Klopp has a good relationship with me. ”

Tuchel understands that this is normal, and with Gao Han's connections and status in European football today, there are so many people who want to consult him, and Mainz must have done everything possible to pull him online.

But what does that have to do with me?

Tuchel looked at Gao Han in some confusion, confused.

"I recommended you to them right then. ”

Tuchel's eyes widened as he listened, and he pointed at himself in disbelief, "Me?"

"Be quiet. Gao Han reminded him softly, and only when Tuchel came back to his head did he continue: "Yes, I recommend you, I think you are fully capable of coaching alone, your level is absolutely enough, you should not stay with me anymore and continue to waste time, you should go to a wider platform to prove yourself." ”

"But ......," Tuchel was suddenly moved.

Recently, he has indeed been confused, because he is thinking about what he will do if Gao Han leaves Bayern Munich, whether to stay at Bayern Munich as an assistant to the new manager, or leave.

But where can he go without Bayern Munich?

But what he didn't expect was that Gao Han had silently prepared a way back for him.

"As far as I know, Mainz is still a very strong team, but for various reasons it has not been able to return to the Bundesliga, and the management of the club is ambitious enough and the coaching environment is good, so I think it is better to start in the Bundesliga than to go to a Bundesliga team that is not very satisfactory. ”

Tuchel also very much agrees with Gao Han's arrangement, because the Bundesliga is more competitive, and it is undoubtedly not a suitable platform for a newcomer who has just debuted, but in the less competitive Bundesliga, coaching a team like Mainz is more likely to prove himself.

"Of course, I recommended you, but they don't listen blindly, they've been looking at you for a while, and they called me two days ago and said they wanted me to come forward and invite you to coach, head coach, and allow you to bring your own coaching team of two people, I think you can consider it. Gao Han smiled and encouraged.

When Tuchel heard this, he really didn't know what to say.

He found that Gao Han had already thought everything out of his mind, and all he needed to do now was to take this step.

"Do you think I can?" he was a little ecstatic.

"Of course. Gao Han smiled without hesitation, "From the first time I met you in Covilcano, I concluded that you will definitely become a very good head coach, all you lack is first-line coaching experience, and in the past two years, you have accumulated a lot, I think you are fully competent." ”

Speaking of this, Gao Han looked at Tuchel deeply, "Remember, the Bundesliga is not enough to give full play to your talents and abilities, your stage should be in the Bundesliga, in the Champions League, don't let yourself be buried." ”

Alpine's encouragement gave Tuchel great courage.

In the past two years, he has been following Gao Han's side, feeling the pressure of the head coach and learning a lot, but he still maintains the self-motivation of the year, he doesn't want to be just someone else's assistant forever, or can only coach the youth team, he hopes to be like Gao Han, take charge of a strong team.

And now, his chance has come.

It was the high cold that brought him this opportunity to take off.

"I won't let you down, I promise. Tuchel replied solemnly.

Gao Han smiled and nodded, with an expression that I was never worried about, as if I had gone to a heart.
