The time has entered the middle of May, and the major leagues of European football have also come to an end, and at this time, the championship competition of each league has either reached the stage of daylight, or the champion is decided.

The relegation quota is also a topic that everyone is concerned about.

But the biggest one is still the Champions League final.

This represents the highest honor of European football, and it is the glory that countless European football giants dream of.

Around this final, the media in various European countries also paid special attention to these two teams.

The media analysed the two teams, and if it were just a purely paper analysis, Barcelona would have had a slight upper hand.

There are even media outlets that commissioned universities to do a simulation using a computer - this is certainly not the kind of simulation in Pro Evolution Soccer or Football Manager games, but the statistics of each player of the two teams, as well as the recent table of the team as a whole, are entered into a mathematical model, and then the calculation begins.

In the end, it was concluded that Barcelona had a better chance of winning the title. This is also in line with the judgment of the vast majority of media and fans about this game.

The advantage for Manchester City is that they have already won the league ahead of schedule, so they don't have to focus too much on the league and they can start preparing for the Champions League final from this point on.

But their disadvantage is that City have never had experience of playing a Champions League final.

Experience is a very mysterious thing, this is not the experience value in RPG games, you can come out through the guò digital intuitive table.

The experience of the Champions League final is simple, in fact, if Manchester City's players encounter some situations in the Champions League final, they may not know how to deal with it correctly, they may panic, they may make a completely wrong response, and eventually the team loses the game......

Inexperience can make players look less confident when they play.

Thus affecting their play.

In the eyes of many media, zero Champions League experience is the biggest problem for this team.

The problem is much smaller on Barcelona's side.

Although they are not yet sure to win the league championship, but La Liga has played 35 rounds, Barcelona has 91 points, and the second-place Real Madrid is now only 83 points, the difference between the two teams is eight points, although there are still three rounds left in the league, Barcelona has not won the championship in advance, but it is only a matter of time before they win the championship, as long as they win the next league game, they can win the league championship two rounds in advance.

Therefore, there is no way for the league to interfere with Barcelona.

In addition, the team has a wealth of experience in the Champions League, having just beaten Manchester United to win the Champions League in the summer of 2009, and most of those who won the title are still in the squad today. Moreover, many of the players in this team have more than one championship experience - many of the Dream II team led by Rijkaard are still in Pep Guardiola's team.

Finally, and most crucially.

Many people are accustomed to saying when evaluating Manchester City: "Do you need a reason to be bullish on Manchester City?" No, because they have glory! That's enough! ”

Glory is City's greatest strength.

But now, that advantage doesn't look so obvious. Because Barcelona's Messi is in very, very good form this time, even better than glory!

This can be seen in the number of goals he has scored in the Champions League.

Messi's excellent performance was enough to offset the advantage of Manchester City's glory.

In such a situation, it is the consensus that Barcelona has the advantage over other aspects.

However, everyone is also very optimistic about the future of Manchester City, as long as they continue to play like this, I believe that in a few seasons, they should be able to win the Champions League.

"How many seasons will you win the championship?" Rong Guang was asked this question by reporters during an interview, and he shook his head: "No, I don't want to win the championship in a few more seasons." What we want is to win now. ”

has reached the final, and there is no need to hide it in terms of championship ambitions, and he is humble.

If he says "we Manchester City are still inexperienced, we are very satisfied with our hard work to reach the Champions League final, we are here to learn from Barcelona, friendship first, competition second" This kind of probably no one will believe it......

"That's ...... for the majority of the media who think Barcelona have an advantage over you"

"If the result of a game can be analysed by the media, then everyone should stop playing." Glory spread out his hand and said. "I don't believe that."

"Messi is also in great shape at the moment, he has just surpassed you in the Champions League scorer chart......"

'I'm very happy to see Leao play so well and I'm looking forward to having a good fight with him in the final.' Rongguang said.

"Are you worried about losing the Champions League Golden Boot?"

"No, don't worry."

"Which do you choose, the top scorer in the Champions League or the Champions League?"

Most people would reply, "Individual honors are nothing compared to team honors" or "As long as I can win the championship, I don't care if I'm the top scorer."

But Rongguang is unusual, his strong self-confidence and consistent "high standards and strict requirements" make his words domineering: "Why choose one? I want both, both champions and top scorers! ”

Soon, there were domineering declarations of glory in the media.

"I want both the championship and the Golden Boot!"

Glory didn't make a fuss when he said this.

He has the qualifications and the strength to say so.

Of course, his qualification to say this does not mean that he will definitely be able to do so, it still depends on many factors, and it is not up to Rong Rong to have the final say.

Manchester City fans are very happy, Glory has such a perversion, they have to feel much more at ease.

Barcelona are indeed aggressive, and the only thing that Manchester City can compete with them is glory.

Glory looks confident, and Barcelona is also confident.

"We have a good relationship with Rong, but a game is a game, and when we get to the court, we won't show mercy." Harvey laughed in an interview.

Iniesta, who was next to him, also nodded: "Rong is a very, very good player, so in order to be able to beat him and win the championship, we have to play better than usual." Barcelona will never be dismissive of Manchester City just because they are an inexperienced team. ”

Messi, as the team's top scorer and a popular player, is naturally the target of the media. Everyone wanted to hear what he thought about competing with Glory.

"It's just a temporary transcendence, it doesn't make much sense. The top scorer looks at the number after all the matches have been played, so I don't think there's any need to discuss that right now. Unlike the glorious domineering announcement that he wants to win the championship and the golden boot, Messi cleverly dodged the issue.

After speaking to reporters, the three Barcelona players – Xavi, Andres Iniesta and Messi – walked back to the dressing room at the training base.

"You can't answer that, Leo." Harvey said suddenly.

"Which answer?"

Messi asked.

"Just answered a reporter's question about your competition with Rong, and I noticed that you avoided this question?"

"Well, isn't that right? I don't want to stir up a conflict with Rong......" Messi spread his hands.

"It's not a question of contradiction or not, Leo. He's our opponent in the Champions League final, and with what you know about Rong, is it true that if you say that, he's going to be worse in the game? Harvey asked rhetorically.

Iniesta, who was next to him, shook his head and said, "Not at all." He's the kind of guy who plays better the more important the game. ”

Iniesta is a brain-dead fan of Glory, and in the whole of Barcelona, he can be said to be the person who knows Glory best.

So much so that after the semi-finals, Iniesta was called by Guardiola alone to talk in the office for more than 40 minutes, that is, to talk about glory, Guardiola wants to know the most complete information about glory, so that he knows how to deal with glory.

Of course, the result after forty minutes made Guardiola a little discouraged - I don't know if it was Iniesta's brain-dead attributes that played a role, anyway, after listening to Iniesta, Guardiola felt that Glory was not a creature on this planet at all, and they Barcelona was called "Cosmos Team" by the media, and he himself never took it to heart, but he felt that Glory really belonged to the "Universe......

"So, Leo. If you want to defeat Rong, then first you have to change your attitude, and you can't always avoid Rong-related things all the time, that won't work. You have to have the confidence to beat him, first you have to dare to go head-to-head with him. When he stares at you, you must not take your eyes off it, or you will lose. If you lose in momentum, it's hard to beat him again. ”

Messi looked at the big brother of the team and was a little surprised. He didn't expect such words to come out of the mouth of the usually gentle Harvey.

"Actually, in the home game last season, you can say to his face that you want to be his opponent, which is an improvement, but it's not enough. Leo, it's not enough. The next time you get a chance, face him and say you're going to beat him. Xavi patted Messi on the shoulder. It won't anger him, and it won't make the two of you friends again. ”

When Xavi and Iniesta left the dressing room, Messi was still in the bathroom, and he was probably still thinking about what Xavi had said to him.

"Saying these things to him before the final doesn't bother him, does it?" Iniesta was a little worried.

"Leao is one of the greatest talents I've ever met, and I think he's the only one who can catch up with Young, and maybe even surpass him. But first he has to really release himself, and not be reserved because of some external evaluation. Harvey explained.

What is the external evaluation he said, Iniesta also knows it, in fact, it means that Rongguang and Messi have a good relationship, Messi is introverted and shy, gentle, just like Rongguang's younger brother......

This assessment will definitely affect Messi.
