"It's a pleasure to meet Real Madrid in the final! I had a lot ......of good memories there," Zhang Yuan said at the press conference before the Champions League final, with a smile on his face.

At the press conference held by Real Madrid before, Real Madrid coach Zidane was asked by reporters, because reporters always ask Zhang Yuan about things, such as the duel between Zhang Yuan and Ronaldo, such as whether Real Madrid should let him go in the first place, etc., Zidane is really hot, these problems have a relationship with me, this shouldn't ask me! Why do you always ask me!

A reporter may be very tired of seeing that Zidane loves his fellow countryman Benzema very much, and asked Zidane to make an evaluation and compare Benzema and Zhang Yuan.

"In my opinion, Benzema is a world-class striker, and he is at the same level as Zhang Yuan!"

As soon as these words came out, public opinion was in an uproar, don't you have to put gold on Benzema's face?!

The news spread quickly, and the next day Liverpool had a pre-match press conference, and Zhang Yuan was asked this question.

"I'm not comparable to Benzema?! I'm not the same type as him!" Zhang Yuan refused to make a direct comparison, this kind of comparison is meaningless.

However, Klopp defended Zhang Yuan quite in his words, he said: "Benzema is world-class, but there is only one Zhang Yuan!"

The two Champions League final teams, there is always an endless topic, because there is such a small episode, Klopp is not so modest in words, he said at the press conference: "Obviously, Real Madrid is a great team, but I think we are not worse than them, we belong to the same level, the upcoming game must be a very exciting final!

Zhang Yuan was also unceremonious at the press conference, when reporters asked him what he thought of the upcoming match, he said: "I will score!

The Liverpool general's gesture is like a kind of psychological warfare, and the outside media also sees it that way, with a fair round of strength, Real Madrid obviously feels more victorious than Liverpool, and the media analyzes what Real Madrid is stronger than Liverpool.

One of the strong in the midfield, Liverpool's midfield hardness is no problem, and the interception is better, but the most important thing is that the organizational ability is not strong, which is very unfavorable to control the situation on the field, Real Madrid has Modric and Kroos, these two are very good organizers, the media predicts that in the Champions League final, Liverpool will undoubtedly be suppressed by Real Madrid.

The second strong is in the backline, Liverpool's backline can be called world-class only Degan, and several other defenders are worse than Real Madrid's, especially in terms of fullbacks, Carvajal and Marcelo are fullbacks who can attack and defend, and Liverpool's Klein is good enough this season, but it is still a lot worse than Carvajal, and the left defenders, Moreno, Gomez, Enrique, Klopp used a lot, but none of them were reliable, Moreno is relatively long-term in his mind, compared with Marcelo, the gap is bigger than Klein.

As for the forward line, no one thinks that Liverpool's forward strength is worse than Real Madrid's, because Liverpool has Zhang Yuan, even if he is partnered with Coutinho and Firmino, the media still thinks that Liverpool's forward ability is not bad, and even if Ronaldo has Benzema and Bale, their goals in the Champions League this season are actually less than Liverpool's.

Liverpool's path to qualification was indisputable, with last season's runners-up in the round of 16 and last season's runners-up in the semi-finals, as Atletico Madrid manager Simeone said after the game, "They deserve to go to the Champions League final!"

On the evening of May 26, Liverpool took a special plane to Milan, and the venue for this year's Champions League final is the Meazza Stadium, where AC Milan and Inter Milan are the home stadiums, which can accommodate about 80,000 people, and has been used as the venue for the Champions League final four times, only less than Wembley Stadium in London and King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels, Belgium.

This stadium is no stranger to Zhang Yuan, during the Inter Milan period, Zhang Yuan played very few times, but he also made a home team appearance here, and after arriving at Juventus, he came here a lot of times, so when he went to step on the field on the morning of the 28th, Zhang Yuan felt a lot more relaxed, as if he was at home.

"Do you feel different here?!" asked Degan, a former AC Milan player, but he played less in Milan and of course in the cup games, but he never played at home, not even on the bench, more in the audience.

"Well, I feel like I've come to my home turf!haha!" Zhang Yuan joked with a grin, teasing the two of them in Milan City.

Deegan couldn't help but laugh when he heard him.

On the evening of the 28th, the game that attracted the attention of hundreds of millions of fans around the world officially started at the Meazza Stadium, and hundreds of millions of Chinese fans are also paying attention to this Champions League final.

Thanks to Klopp's iron-fisted policy, Zhang Yuan has not been able to use network equipment during this time, otherwise there will be some pressure, and sustenance is also pressure and motivation, and Zhang Yuan will also have troubles in this regard.

Zhang Yuan's family is mobilized this time, all came to Milan, this time it will not be troublesome at all, there are Mai Xuewen and Docilia in Milan, they can arrange everything, Zhang Yuan also invited a lot of friends, including Hoffman father and son, who have not met for a long time, as well as the head coach Slomka, Conte, Selicini and Akori who have worked together.

There was also a short pre-match performance, which of course featured the opera that the Italians are proud of, the voice of tenor Bocelli, who was not singing for the Champions League for the first time, but also the second time and the Champions League in '09 at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, where the final opponents were Manchester United and Barcelona.

Liverpool use the San Siro's visiting dressing room as the visitors, but with Real Madrid's home team kit in white, Liverpool are still able to use their first kit, bright red.

There are many players in Liverpool who have not mentioned the Champions League final, and the experience of the tournament is relatively lacking, and some players may not be able to use the pre-game motivation feelings, but Zhang Yuan still did the pre-game encouragement as a person in the dressing room before the game.

He originally hoped that Gerrard could stand up and say a few words, but after discussing with Gerrard, Gerrard asked him to come out and speak, Zhang Yuan did not postpone it, clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, and began his pre-game captain's mobilization speech.

"It's very noisy outside, I've played a lot of games on this stadium as an Inter Milan player and opponent, so I'm no stranger to this place at all, this stadium can hold 80,000 fans, it's a big crowd, we come into the stadium and we think of all kinds of sounds, sometimes it makes us feel irritated, but more often it makes us feel the blood boiling in our bodies! Don't tell me you don't want to!"

"As a player, this is the best stage, the biggest stage, how can I not be excited, I am actually a little excited, and I am very happy to be back on the stage of the Champions League final!"

"So, it's normal to be excited, but we should imagine it! Will this environment be worse than the Bernabeu, will it be worse than West**!No, we've been to the Bernabeu, we've been to West**, we're the away team, but today we're carrying the name of the away team, but it's not really the away team, there are at least 30,000 fans on site today as our supporters, this is not our away stadium, this is our home stadium, we want to make this our home stadium!"

"Since it's our own home stadium, there's nothing to be afraid of, and the game itself isn't scary, I'm 25 years old, Digan, how old are you?! Felipe, how many are you?!...... Even if we lose this game, we still have a future!"
