All major European leagues are in the final stages, and with it the annual Champions League final is just around the corner.

When Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan beat Manchester United and Liverpool respectively to reach the final, the media reaction was not as quick as it used to be – is there any feud between Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan, and how does the two clubs intersect?

Borussia Dortmund's run into the final as a dark horse is certainly worth writing about, but what will be interesting about the match between Dortmund and AC Milan?

Unlike the Chinese media, which are so excited that they want to tell the whole universe the news, the European media are still a little difficult about it.

Yuul Lambert is also thinking about this question, and in order to find some hot topics that can attract the attention of fans, he has looked through countless historical materials in the past few days.

Finally, his eyes lit up when he picked up the player profiles of the two teams and scanned them at a glance.

Looks like a good idea!

"Mario, are you really going to the first team?"

Götze was walking down the road when Royce's envious voice came from the other end of the phone.

He walked up to a newsstand, took out the change and handed it to the boss, who familiarly pulled out a copy of the Dortmund Evening News, which had just been issued tonight, and put it in his hand.

"Yes, the boss told me yesterday!"

Every time he came home from school or training, he would help his parents bring a newspaper home.

"I'm going to comfort you when you lose the game, but now it seems that you don't need it, you're doing well. ”

"Hey, Marko, don't say that. Maybe the boss will call you back next season, and he sent you tickets to the finals, didn't he?"

"Well, I just signed for it yesterday, and it is said that Thomas and Sven received it as well. ”

"Oh, what's your seat number, are we seated together?"

"I think it should be, how about we celebrate together when Dortmund win the championship when we come back!"

"Good idea! Why don't I call the boss again?"

"Believe me, the boss is definitely not available, he has to be with the team. ”

Götze paused at his steps, but then raised his eyebrows again.

"It's okay, I'll be with the team next season anyway!"

“…… Oh, send you a word, get out, okay?"

"Hahahaha, I'm kidding!"

As the Champions League draws closer, the atmosphere throughout Dortmund is getting stronger.

With posters and advertisements everywhere in the streets, as well as spontaneous graffiti cheers from fans, everyone at Dortmund is looking forward to this day.

Götze's newspaper occupies the space tonight in the run-up to the Champions League final, with Lambert in charge of the page.

“…… The oldest vs the youngest, who can climb to the top of Europe? ”

Hearing Otria's words, Yan Jing, who was holding a glass of water, stopped preparing to go upstairs and came to the sofa and leaned over.

"Really, what does it say?"

——…… It hasn't been easy for both teams along the way, with AC Milan not in good form at the start of the season due to last season's phonegate. They started in qualifying and have come to this point thanks to the miraculous performance of Brazilian star Kaka this season.

Borussia Dortmund, on the other hand, did not qualify, but were placed in the group stage of death. Despite this, they managed to win the group and leave the defending champions in the Europa League. After entering the knockout round, Dortmund beat Lille, Arsenal and Manchester United in succession, making many experts fall through the glasses and become the biggest dark horse in Europe this season!

Of the 32 teams involved in the Champions League this season, Borussia Dortmund have the youngest average age of any team, while AC Milan are the oldest of the 32.

Perhaps the biggest attraction of this game is this.

Borussia Dortmund have been a fairly young team from start to finish, and their Chinese head coach is even younger than most of the players in the AC Milan squad.

None of their starting eleven had any experience of standing in a Champions League final, with the exception of French defender Thuram.

On the other hand, AC Milan, goalkeeper Dida, defenders Nesta and Maldini, midfielders Gattuso, Pirlo, Seedorf and Ambrosini, and Inzaghi in the forward line...... Eight out of 11 have played at least two Champions League finals and lifted the trophy in 2002/2003!

Yan Jing couldn't help but smile after reading it, and he and his coaching team had already taken the age factor into account.

This season, AC Milan have brought in as many as 10 players, including Ronaldo, while also losing six players, including their leading striker Andriy Shevchenko.

Although it seems that AC Milan have a lot of fresh blood, however, except for French midfielder Gourcuff who was born in 86 and Darmian who was promoted from the youth team in 89, the rest of the new signings are not young.

Ronaldo is 31 years old, and centre-back Favali will be 36 ......years old

Galliani's buying strategy has exacerbated the problem of the team's ageing structure. In this case, Carlo Ancelotti waved a new 4-3-2-1 Christmas tree formation, allowing AC Milan to still play quite well, of course, this is inseparable from their midfield star Kaka, who is in good form.

Kaka must be the target of Dortmund's focus in the final, but in addition to Kaka, Yan Jing looked at the main force of AC Milan and only felt that there was no soft persimmon to pinch.

Not to mention the impregnable backline with Nesta and Maldini in place, the configuration of the midfield really gave Yan Jing a headache.

Borussia Dortmund's current midfield configuration is more attack-oriented, and whether midfielders Toure and Saheen can withstand the test is also a big question.

There is still one final round of the Bundesliga to go, but that is nothing more important than the Champions League final, and Yan Jing has been leading the team to prepare for the match against Milan since returning from the holiday against Schalke.

Yan Jing hopes to minimize the disruption caused by the outside world to the team during this time, but after such a high-profile season, the players under his account have become sought-after sweets, and it is really impossible not to be disturbed.

I don't know how many people his mobile phone number has been leaked to, but he has been getting all kinds of calls lately.

Some brands that want to be endorsed by him, and some agents whose names he has never even heard of recommend his players to him, make Yan Jingdu want to buy a mobile phone as a private life number.

At the end of the day's training, Yan Jing had just returned to his bedroom, his butt had not yet fallen to the bed, and his mobile phone was noisy again.

"Oh my God, who is this......"

Yan Jing sighed, he took out his mobile phone and saw that it was a number he had never seen before, but the international area code seemed to be calling from the United Kingdom.

"Hello, this is Yan Jing. ”

His impressive Scottish accent came from the other end of the line.

"Hi Yan, good evening. Remember when you owe me a glass of wine?"

Ferguson, this familiar tone is definitely Ferguson!

Yan Jing's eyelids twitched, he didn't believe what Ferguson called him for, even if he thought about it with his toes, he knew that it was definitely the old Scottish man who had a crush on his team.

"Mr. Sir, I don't remember what wine I owe you, am you mistaken?"

"Oh, yes, people's memories are getting worse and worse as they get older. But that's okay, next time you come to Manchester, I'll treat you with good wine. ”

Yan Jing didn't want to have anything to do with Ferguson, so he simply asked directly: "I will have a chance, but Sir, do you have anything to do with calling me?"

Ferguson over there had heard that the Chinese didn't like to be too direct, but Yan Jing's first exit saved him a lot of trouble.

"Haha, then I'm not going around the bush. Is it so, are Dortmund willing to sell Ribery this summer window?"

Sure enough, it was for Frank, and the previous reports on the news were not groundless.

Yan Jing didn't think about it and refused: "I'm sorry, sir, not at all." ”

"Don't be so adamant. ”

Ferguson's voice didn't sound emotionally changed, and he was still speaking in a relaxed tone.

"I sent you an offer this afternoon and I just got a reply, guess what they said? ”

Yan Jing subconsciously solemnized his expression, he still didn't intend to show his flaws: "I believe the club will not sell Frank, Alex." Not to mention that he himself wants to stay in Dortmund. ”

"Yan, it's not that simple. Ferguson seemed to remind Yan Jing, "The oath of allegiance of players can sometimes not be taken too seriously, not to mention do you know who else has a crush on Ribery besides Manchester United?"

Yan Jing didn't speak, he was waiting for Ferguson to tell him the answer.

"Real Madrid, they should have been in contact with Borussia Dortmund as well. ”

What, Real Madrid, but the club never informed him of the news.

"It's not surprising to me that Real Madrid would look at Frank, they always want the best players in the world and Frank is one of them. ”

"Well, I don't know how much attention you pay to the English media. In this morning's newspaper, the reporter took a photo of Ribery's agent, Heide Shaid, having dinner with Real Madrid's sporting director. Ferguson said, "Well, instead of selling to Real Madrid, why don't you sell me a face, this old man? I won't discredit Dortmund in terms of price." ”

Hearing this, Yan Jing's heart began to feel a little bottomless. Although Franck Franck Ribery has told him in private that he has no intention of leaving next season, if giants like Real Madrid and Manchester United really want to buy him, who can guarantee that the Frenchman will not waver?

"Thank you for your message, Alex. Yan Jing took a deep breath, he deliberately controlled the speed of his speech, and did not say it to death, "I need some time to think about this." 166 Reading Network
