Chapter 134: The Dragon Entrenched in the Sky Over France

The Champions League final is just around the corner, and the Arsenal players, who were very nervous before, and Arsene Wenger himself, feel a little more relaxed than before at this time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Arsenal's arrival in Paris has been well received by the local fans, especially the French players, who will be playing in the European Championship after this year's Champions League final, and the French team, who have already won the World Cup in '98, are now looking forward to winning the tournament again.

Arsene Wenger attaches great importance to this first Champions League final he has participated in, but he has not rashly changed the team's tactics, because Wenger feels that the squad that has been running in for a season is now enough to deal with the current final opponents, although there are still holes in the team's backline, but Wenger believes that the Arsenal midfield led by Liu Han is enough to control the game.

For Real Madrid, this season is a legendary season, at the beginning of the season, the team was in turmoil, club president Sanz a series of unreasonable operations caused Real Madrid's record to decline all the way, after the first ten rounds of the game, La Liga's consistent king Real Madrid Madrid was only ranked 14th in the league, almost close to the relegation zone.

However, after Real Madrid fired Toshak, the head coach who replaced Hiddink, decisively used Bosque, the youth team coach who is more familiar with the team.

Bosque decisively used some young players from Real Madrid's youth academy after taking office, from goalkeeper Casillas to midfielder Guti, striker Morientes and other players, his bold use of people made Real Madrid's results recover quickly, and in the last moment of the league overtook Valencia and Deportivo La Coruna, which have risen strongly this year, and successfully topped the league title, and in the Champions League, Bosque also relied on his excellent employment strategy to the final, and now Real Madrid is looking forward to bringing the team an eighth Champions League trophy, They will also be looking forward to a perfect end to this legendary season, but before they can do so, they need to beat an equally legendary Arsenal side this season.

On May 24, 2000, the sun was shining in France, and the aroma of veveter iris made people crowd of the French Stadium diffused with a romantic atmosphere.

The Stade de France, which was built as the venue for the 1998 World Cup final, can accommodate 80,000 spectators, and today it is a full house, and the French love football as much as any other country except for women and wine, and although the two sides in today's final are not their domestic league teams, French fans still do not want to miss this high-level world-class match that is very much watched.

In the players' tunnel at the Stade de France, the Arsenal players and the Real Madrid players each lined up in a team to wait for the entry, for such a game, both sides have carried out a lot of preparation work before the start of the game, the coaching staff has said all the things that should be said, no one will deliberately increase the pressure on their players before the game, and now in addition to the players, other relevant personnel can only expect the players on the field to adjust their mentality and take the game seriously.

Liu Han stands very conspicuous among the players, after all, his height is the highest among the players on the field, Real Madrid's stars are curious to visit this tall Oriental, before their head coach has emphasized how good this Oriental is, although Real Madrid's stars can't help but be a little disapproving, but they will still be curious about the opponent before the game starts.

Although Arsenal's players are not squinting, they are not as good as Real Madrid's players in terms of mentality, after all, Real Madrid just won the Champions League the year before last, and players like Hierro and Redondo have rich experience in the Champions League final, which Real Madrid has a great advantage over Arsenal.

Liu Han didn't care about the other party's attention to observe him, he had adapted to this kind of visit by many people before, after all, in the two sports he has been engaged in so far, yellow people do not often appear in such finals, Liu Han's heart does not have the slightest fluctuation now, the only thing he wants to do is to hope that the game starts as soon as possible, Liu Han enjoys the confrontation in the game and the joy of victory after the game very much.

With the whistle of German referee Kirstensen, the world-renowned Champions League final finally began, and Arsenal got the first chance to attack.

Arsenal's lineup in this game is still a 442 lineup, Liu Han's position is the forward midfielder, Wenger found that putting Liu Han in this position can not only play his huge deterrent power in attack, but also allow Liu Han to have enough space to run, his physical strength is good enough, and there is not much difference between the forward position and the central midfielder position.

The partnership between Thierry Henry and Bergkamp is still the same up front, and Henry is now becoming more comfortable with the centre-forward position, and his ability to fight has improved greatly with his experience in the Premier League.

Bergkamp is more of a shadow striker, similar to Robert Baggio in the '94 World Cup, and the Dutchman can also properly organize the attack when Liu Han sometimes goes up to the front, and his attributes are very suitable for the position of "nine and a half".

The two wings of the midfield Arsenal team are still the same Overmars and Ljungberg, both of whom have excellent attacking ability, and now with Liu Han in the midfield, their task is to constantly use their speed to pull the opponent's defense in the game.

In the back position, the Arsenal team does not think about Vieira as a second person, Vieira is the top candidate in the back position regardless of physical fitness or defensive ability, and now he also has the awareness of insertion under the cultivation of Wenger, and suddenly appears at the front of the opponent's big penalty area at a critical moment, and a violent long-range shot can be used as a strategic weapon of Arsenal.

There wasn't much Arsenal could do at the back, with the right-back being captain Adams, scrappy, decisive and brave, who could drop back into the box at the right time to participate in the defense, although slightly worse in attack, there were not many problems in defence.

In the left-back position, although Silvinho is a substitute for Real Madrid left-back Carlos in the Brazilian national team, Silvinho's skills are very delicate, and there may be certain problems in defense, but Silvinho can play a big role in attack.

At centre-back, Arsenal continued to use a combination of Keown and Winterburn.

Real Madrid's squad changes have not changed much from the league, with a series of young players promoted by Bosque appearing in the starting line-up, with Casillas starting in place of legendary German goalkeeper Ilgener, and a combination of Raul and Morientes up front, who are good teammates in the youth team.

After the start of the game, the Arsenal team kicked off, and the two sides quickly launched a formation, the Arsenal team did not rashly attack, but kept testing in the midfield, and Real Madrid did not press immediately, both sides are still adapting to the rhythm of the game. (To be continued.) )
