Chapter 0202 - Aiming for the Europa League Championship
The next morning, Rashford woke up and was driven by Catherine Gloria to the Carrington training base. However, the Reds did not train as they were to rush to the airport and take a chartered flight to Basel, Switzerland, to prepare for the Europa League final in two days' time.
On the plane to Switzerland, Rashford and Uncle Mata sat side by side.
Rashford felt thirsty and asked the flight attendant for a bottle of water.
The habit of his previous life made him unscrew the lid and take a closer look before drinking water from the bottle.
Mata was puzzled by Rashford's movements, and asked curiously: "Marcus, why do you have to look at the lid on point, do you think the bottle cap looks good?" ”
"No, I just wanted to see if there's another bottle!" Rashford replied casually.
Rashford's answer left Uncle Mata confused, and he asked strangely, "Another bottle?" ”
Mata had no idea what was going on in the East, and he thought it might be Marcus Rashford who didn't think a bottle of water was enough.
So, Uncle Mata, the warm man, handed his bottle of water to Rashford.
Rashford scratched his head, defeated by Uncle Mata, well, it seems that Uncle Mata can't understand the "one more bottle" terrier!
The distance between Manchester and Basel is actually not that far, and the plane landed at Basel airport shortly after the hiccup between Rashford and Juan Mata.
Before Manchester United arrived in Basel, their opponents Sevilla had already arrived. Sevilla's final round of La Liga fixtures came a day earlier than Manchester United.
Sevilla FC stayed for the last game because there was no idea of competing for the title, only to send a substitute to lose away to Athletic Bilbao 3-1 with the home team in front.
It was a game that Sevilla FC deliberately gave up, as they said goodbye to the title and a Champions League place early in the league anyway, so they are betting on their Champions League hopes of winning the Europa League.
………………
When both teams arrived in Basel, they checked into their own hotels and then trained at their respective stadiums in preparation for the Europa League final two days later.
The two days passed quickly, and the day of the competition was approaching.
Both sides have long been prepared for this big battle.
In order to achieve a third consecutive Europa League title, in order to qualify for the Champions League, Emery will never allow his team to slip up.
Manchester United was similar, and at the hotel where they stayed, the whole Manchester United team held a meeting. The entire player, Louis van Gaal and the entire coaching staff, as well as the club's executive vice-chairman, Woodward, attended.
'I haven't talked about our goals in the Europa League, but maybe everyone already has an idea and a guess in their minds. "Now, I think it's time to talk to everyone about it, yes, we're aiming for the title!" Now that we're on the stage of the finals, there's no reason to aim for a runner-up! ”
It was a meeting of unifying ideas.
It was a successful meeting.
The whole team is unified, everyone has a clear goal and there is a lot of motivation.
