Chapter 566: Starry European Derby

After Real Madrid won the 2011/2012 La Liga title with a record 104 points and an unbeaten season in the top five leagues, the club and fans alike celebrated with a big ceremony.

After the celebration, Mourinho gave the team two days off and a day of recovery training on the 16th.

The global media turned their attention to the Champions League after two days of coverage of Real Madrid's unbeaten title run and a record 104 points.

This season's Champions League final will be staged in the European derby, with the Galaxy battleship Real Madrid facing Bayern Munich, the Bundesliga hegemon known as the Hollywood of football.

One is the invincible Galaxy Battleship, the other is the star-studded football Hollywood, who of the two teams will win in the end?

Can Real Madrid make a historic breakthrough and win the 10th Champions League in the club's history, becoming the only team to win the Champions League in double figures?

Can Lu Wenbin continue to play the record of winning the championship just by participating in the competition and winning the Champions League for three different teams?

Before Lu Wenbin, Seedorf was the only person in European football to have won the Champions League for three different teams (Ajax 1995, Real Madrid 1998, AC Milan 2005, 2007).

If Real Madrid win this final, Lu Wenbin will become one of the superstars who will join Seedorf in winning the Champions League with three different teams.

There is also the suspense about the Champions League goal total.

If Lu Wenbin scores a brace in this final, he will equal Raul's record of 71 goals in the Champions League.

If Lu Wenbin scores a hat-trick, he will complete the surpassing of Raul and become the first person in the Champions League all-time scoring list.

Two of the top teams in European football, the most well-known teams and stars, gathered in this season's Champions League final, so that the final was hyped by the global media long before the start of the game, and it is estimated that the number of global fans watching the live broadcast will exceed one billion (China can contribute at least two or three billion, even in the middle of the night).

On May 17, the Real Madrid team boarded a plane to Munich, Germany, arrived at the final venue two days ahead of schedule, and began pre-match training at the training base of Bayern Munich's rival Munich 1860.

On the downside of Real Madrid, in the 2011/2012 Champions League final, Real Madrid faced Bayern Munich, while the final was held at Bayern Munich's home stadium, the Allianz Arena.

The venue for the 2012 Champions League final was decided three years ago and will not change as Bayern reach the final.

Bayern Munich can go all the way this season, beating various European giants, including Barcelona, to advance to the final, and they must have the idea of winning the Champions League trophy on their home turf.

In order to win the Champions League, they even lost the Bundesliga title, which was taken by Borussia Dortmund.

In this Champions League final, Real Madrid is equivalent to playing away, and Real Madrid is naturally at a disadvantage in terms of venue familiarity and audience atmosphere.

However, Real Madrid have a winning record in all Champions League games this season, home and away.

Therefore, Mourinho confidently stated in his pre-match press conference:

"No matter where the final venue is, Real Madrid will break down the opponent's defense with a devastating attack and win the final Champions League trophy!"

And Bayern coach Heynckes said:

"Bayern have been preparing for this Champions League final at home all season, and no matter who the opponent is, Bayern Munich will beat the opponent and win the title!"

In interviews, players and fans on both sides also expressed their confidence in their teams.

Against the super pervert Lu Wenbin in the Real Madrid team, Bayern Munich's defender Gustavo stood up and said:

"I have been teammates with Lu Wenbin in Hoffenheim for three years, and I am very familiar with Lu Wenbin! The head coach gave me the task of keeping an eye on Lu Wenbin, and I know how to deal with him! ”

That's right, with his huge success at Hoffenheim, Gustavo has moved to Bayern Munich.

In this Champions League final, Gustavo and Boateng are the people responsible for keeping an eye on Lu Wenbin, with Gustavo as the main body.

Regarding the remarks of his old teammate Gustavo, Lu Wenbin said that Gustavo was familiar with himself when he was Hoffenheim.

As for Lu Wenbin after transferring to Inter Milan and Real Madrid, Gustavo does not understand.

He'll show his old friend Gustavo how fast he's progressing.

On the afternoon of May 18, die-hard fans from all over the world who did not have tickets began to flock to the Allianz Arena to take up camp.

At noon on May 19, after lunch, fans and locals from all over the world who stayed in hotels and hotels in Munich began to flock to the Allianz Arena.

In the evening, the stadium was open for ticket checking, and tens of thousands of fans entered the stadium with scarves, flags, gongs, drums and horns.

Of course, a lot of things are contraband, and the fans bring them into the stadium by all kinds of special means, and the security check is not passable.

Before the start of the game, a short theatrical performance was held at the Allianz Stadium, followed by the Champions League flags, the flags of both teams, the players of both sides entered, played the Champions League theme song, shook hands, took a group photo, and picked the edges.

Real Madrid's starting lineup is 4231, goalkeeper Casillas, defenders Ramos, Carvalho, Pepe, Marcelo, defenders Khedira, Xavi Alonso, midfielders Ronaldo, Lu Wenbin, Ozil, and forward Benzema.

Bayern Munich's starting lineup is also 4231, goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, defenders Lahm, Van Bitten, Boateng, Contento, defenders Gustavo, Schweinsteiger, midfielders Robben, Kroos, Ribery, and forward Thomas Muller.

Both teams are star-studded and star-studded, worthy of the Champions League final and European derby.

At 20:45 local time on the evening of May 19, in the eyes of one billion fans around the world, with the referee's whistle, the 2011/2012 UEFA Champions League final was played at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany.

At the beginning of the game, his old friend Gustavo really pasted Lu Wenbin, and he really stuck Lu Wenbin.

After three years as teammates, training and competing together, Gustavo does know some of Lu Wenbin's physical reflexes, habitual running and movements.

In the 3rd minute, Lu Wenbin received a pass from Khedira and tried to break through Gustavo, but Gustavo stabbed the ball away with a fallen tackle, and there was no foul.

In the 8th minute, the air ball from Ozil's bottom cross was grabbed by Gustavo to the first point and cleared out of the forbidden area, and Lu Wenbin failed to occupy a favorable position to grab the first point.

In the 12th minute, Lu Wenbin broke through Schweinsteiger with the ball and was about to pass Ronaldo diagonally, but Gustavo rushed from the diagonal ground in advance and stabbed the ball away.

For a while, Gustavo was in the limelight, causing bursts of applause from the Bayern fans and praise from the commentators.
