Messi is standing near the halfway line with his team-mates at the moment, and the Champions League march rings in his ears, and last season, in Paris, Trapani lost the title and left an indelible mark on his heart.

After a year's absence, Trapani is back on the stage of the Champions League final, "I can't let the title slip through my fingertips this time!" Messi swore silently in his heart.

He's also a man of aspirations, he is hungry for honours both for the team and for him personally, and he knows that this season there are rumours that the Champions League final will be a heavyweight match that will determine who is the footballer of the year, so this game has kept him motivated.

"Come on! Leo! "Messi's father, Jorge. Messi watched his son in the stadium from the stands and shouted silently.

It is not easy for Messi's family to have such a life today, and Messi is even more difficult, Jorge never thought about what his own home would be like without Hugo in his life!

He has more expectations for Messi in his head, and he hopes that Messi can play well and win this trophy and give it to Hugo, because that is their family's great benefactor.

After a while, the ceremony on the field was over, Messi and his teammates hugged and encouraged each other, Di Maria's legs involuntarily trembled a little, no way, he couldn't control himself when he heard the theme song of the Champions League final.

"Relax, relax!" Mascherano slapped him on the cheek, "Kick like you did in training, you can do it, be patient and courageous, and you'll be fine in a while!" ”

Mascherano wasn't very good at words, but when he saw his little brother like this, he must have said something of encouragement.

Not only Di Maria was a little excited, but Victor was also excited, he actually never had the experience of playing in the final, the experience of playing in the major finals, he was never the main force in the Italian national team, and his status was worse than Barzagli, as for the Champions League final, I'm sorry, the big girl went to the sedan chair once.

Victor took advantage of the captains of both sides to guess the edge, and just jumped a few times on the spot to relieve his tension.

It's impossible to say that you are not excited or nervous when you are on the venue of the final, but after a few minutes, everyone's attention will naturally revolve around the game, and everything will be fine.

The German referee blew the whistle of the game, and the "home team" Trapani kicked off first, because Trapani is the home team, so Milan is the away team, and they can wear the away team jersey, but in the last final, Milan wore that white away shirt and lost, so this time they deliberately wore the home jersey.

Trapani did not rush to find Messi and other frontcourt players after kick-off, but fell backwards, Ranieri was not in a hurry to give Milan a beating, the best way to circumvent is the best, and there were opportunities throughout the game.

Carlo Ancelotti's team has two characteristics, one is to make full use of the energy of the team's passers to give the opponent a fatal blow when they play positionally, and they have a super running striker Inzaghi.

Another feature is the ability to switch between attack and defence, which is something they are particularly good at, and Kaka's 1,000-mile solo ride at Old Trafford in the semi-finals was very impressive.

This is Kaka's characteristic, his movements are not fancy but he is fast with the ball, and he is a player with different characteristics from Messi.

Ranieri is now adopting a conservative strategy, but he has been criticized by many professionals before the game, why criticize him?! Because in the first half, Trapani defeated Milan not by defense but by strong attack, in the game against Manchester United, Manchester United's impact also made Milan embarrassed, and the bus had to weigh the pressure of their own backline, Seedorf, Pirlo, Kaka and others have the ability to pass the ball, which should not be underestimated.

Milan were not in a hurry to press, but slowly pressed up, forcing the Trapani players to play.

When they pressed to a certain extent, Trapani was on the safe side, Victor passed the ball forward with a big kick, which was Ranieri's request, and the opponent pressed hard to simply kick forward, in short, the place where the mistake was made must not be the backfield.

In the end, the aim is to control the ball as much as possible and swing the bus, and then counter-grasp Milan's loopholes in the transition between attack and defense.

Victor's long ball was ineffective, Adriano was whistled for offside, Milan set piece.

Trapani's deliberate retreat gave Milan space to control, but they were only near the center circle, once Trapani's half their passing and receiving would be limited, Milan themselves did not dare to raise their own backline too high, Trapani's forward line several players are very fast, strong individual combat ability, and caution is also the law that Ancelotti must follow.

"Looks like they can't let go! Maybe as the game progresses, the players of both teams may let go a little! National TV commentator Paul . Rossi explains.

He is very reasonable, in the final of the two less familiar teams more and more easy to want to play their own characteristics, and in the final two familiar teams are often used to limit the opponent's play, as the game is stale, there will always be loopholes, it is impossible to be in place at every point, maybe a sudden change will bring a turn to the course of the game.

"You have to be patient to watch the Italian teams face off against each other!" Another commentator, Bergomi, said with a smile.

The battle in the stadium looked intense, but in fact everyone left room for three points, everyone was waiting to make mistakes, Milan was a little more proactive, trying to create a killing chance through a passing combination, and Trapani was passively waiting for a counterattack.

In the twelfth minute, Trapani finally waited for an opportunity, the first to shine was Di Maria, Milan's positional battle attacked to the front, Seedorf's pass cleared Victor, Essien got the ball on the periphery of the penalty area, and passed straight to Di Maria who was waiting to respond, Di Maria immediately did not stop the ball, and directly made a one-two cooperation with Mascherano, avoiding Ambrosini's defense, Di Maria was very bold with the ball, and went directly to the middle, while Adriano instead went to the side to make room for him.

Di Maria didn't look nervous at all at this time, he was very confident with the ball, facing Pirlo, Di Maria was very confident, using his change of direction to get past Pirlo, but Di Maria had a problem with the last pass, and his pass wanted to hit behind Kaladze.

Who knew that a Gattuso was inserted diagonally, fell to the ground and slid the tackle, and actually cut off Di Maria's pass halfway through!

"Woo!" Milan fans applauded Gattuso's interception, which is what he should do as a butcher, and it was done quite well, Kaladze was not far away from Messi at this time, but he could not stop Messi's speed nine times out of ten, and once Di Maria's pass penetrated his side, Messi could go straight into the box.

Gattuso's interception was very crucial, Trapani's counterattack was also very fast, basically there was not too much circulation in the midfield, although this opportunity did not even get a shot in the end, but Ranieri was extremely satisfied, he stood on the sidelines and applauded his disciple!

"Just kick it like that! Just kick it like that! Ranieri said as he walked, gesturing.

Milan actually arranged the three big King Kong today, Gattuso, Ambrosini, and Pirlo are all defensive midfielders, Pirlo was attributed to the defensive player is the position reason, he has always been in a relatively backward position, Gattuso and Ambrosini are his protector King Kong.

Judging from the perspective just now, in fact, Gattuso's protective role has been truly brought into play.

Ancelotti chewed gum in his mouth, his face was expressionless, he had expected such a situation for a long time, but Milan's advantage is still in control, being conservative is not only to put the bus, but also to control the ball without doubt is also one of the means, what he expects Milan to do is to control, slowly take chances, and the defense cannot be lost.

"Alas! What a pity! It's been passed on! Messi will definitely score! "There's a lot of talk among the Trapani fans.
