On the day of the game, many news media appeared on the words of Hoffenheim captain Chu Zhongtian. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

With less than twelve hours left before the end of the game, Chu Zhongtian's words obviously made this final more interesting.

Is Hoffenheim really confident? Or are you playing tricks? Or are they not even figuring it out?

There are many speculations about Chu Zhongtian's words.

Of course, the Catalan media is extremely ridiculous at Chu Zhongtian, and they have ridiculed Chu Zhongtian for not being able to do enough to beat Barcelona, and some media accuse Chu Zhongtian of disrespecting his opponent and having no sportsmanship.

The German media strongly supported Chu Zhongtian and Hoffenheim, saying that as a team participating in the final, they should have such confidence.

In this regard, the Chinese media are not as effective as the German media. There are also voices of skepticism in the Chinese media. Only a very small number of media believe that Hoffenheim is likely to beat Barcelona, and more media are more neutral to believe that this is Hoffenheim's psychological tactic, and another part of the media believes that Chu Zhongtian's move is inappropriate, on the one hand, it may anger the opponent, and on the other hand, it is too ungraceful - you see that Barcelona has not said a bad word about Hoffenheim, nor has it shown any disdain, and you will inevitably be looked down upon by people for doing so. China is a country of etiquette, but Chu Zhongtian's performance is not very in line with the image of a country of etiquette - he is also on China's national image propaganda film!

Just as a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) criticized Liu Xiang for his lack of sportsmanship and for being too frivolous and unpopular because of Liu Xiang's action of jumping on the podium, there has never been a shortage of people in China who have come forward to speak out for foreign adults.

Of course, these people can't interfere with Chu Zhongtian, not only these people in China, but also foreign voices can't interfere with him. On matchday, he was in a calm mood and didn't seem to remember a bombshell at his press conference yesterday.

Thanks to the media, Barcelona knew about it that night. Some journalists who have a good relationship with the Barcelona players will mention this incident when they talk to them. Of course, the reporters did not forget to laugh at Chu Zhongtian's arrogance again.

This matter is also discussed within Barcelona.

"Well, they'll know we're awesome." Alves spoke to his teammates about it during the break. "I can't wait to teach those megalomanians on the field!"

"Don't underestimate you, Daniel. Chu is indeed very capable. Harvey reminded from the side.

Alves pouted: "Although Guardiola said so, I think he is far worse than you." ”

Harvey smiled, "It's hard to say. ”

Alves shrugged: "Okay. Even if he is very powerful, Hoffenheim is the only one of his grades, and no one else is good. I really know where the confidence comes from for this team to beat us and win the title before the game. ”

"Maybe it's their psychological warfare?" Iniesta guessed.

Alves thought about it and found that this was the most likely. It's impossible for anyone with a normal IQ to say such a thing, it's completely illogical. It seems that this should be the psychological tactic of the other side, trying to provoke us and lose cool, so that they can profit from it.

But such psychological warfare is useless for us. You have succeeded in provoking us, but you have not made us lose our cool.

When the time comes, we'll let you know where the teams that try to provoke or look down on Barcelona end up – they've all been swept into the dustbin of history!

There was a lot of discussion, but Messi didn't get involved. Whether it was psychological warfare or anything else, he wasn't interested, he just had to settle on one thing - play with all his might and win the game.

Listening to the discussions of teammates, the name "Chu" appears most frequently. When Pep Guardiola showed them the video of the opponent's game before the game, this person was also highlighted by the manager.

He is at the heart of the team, and Guardiola has compared him to the opposing Xavi. The difference is that Xavi is relatively low-key, his position in the team is very important, but his reputation is not as big as himself, and Iniesta is more famous than Xavi because he scored the winning goal in the World Cup final. And in Hoffenheim, the only star they can get their hands on is Chu Zhongtian, so his reputation is much louder.

Messi is a little interested in Chu Zhongtian. He just won last year's FIFA World Footballer of the Year award and is the number one figure in world football today.

When he reaches his realm, he is always full of expectations for those strong enemies. He's hungry for all sorts of challenges, and he's a little unmotivated by the usual opponents – and he doesn't show it, but deep down, he's eager to play against evenly matched opponents.

It's like Real Madrid's Cristiano. Ronaldo, like that, has always pressed himself on the La Liga scorer list this season, although he did not get the top scorer in the end, but competing with such an opponent gave him enough motivation. He's the kind of guy whose opponents are stronger, the stronger he gets.

Now Guardiola put Chu Zhongtian and Xavi together and said that as Xavi's teammate, Messi is well aware of Xavi's ability and his importance, although the outside world does not value Xavi very much. If Chu Zhongtian is really a player who can be compared to Xavi, then he is very interested...... Originally, he was a little uninterested in Hoffenheim reaching the final, but if he could, he would have preferred to meet Real Madrid in the final. However, the elimination of Real Madrid in the semi-finals is also a good result. Bayern Munich is also a very strong opponent, who would have thought that it was indeed Hoffenheim, a small team with little reputation, that finally reached the final.

Now, he's finding the joy of playing against this team.

"Leo, what do you think?" Iniesta suddenly asked Messi, who was distracted next to him.

"Huh?" Messi looked dazed, completely unaware of what his teammates were asking.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw his cute appearance.

In the midst of everyone's laughter, Messi's face turned red.

Harvey smiled, "We want to hear what you think of what Chu said. ”

Messi suddenly realized. "Oooh. Belch...... I think it's a good thing to have faith......"

Alves asked, "Don't you feel underestimated?" ”

Messi shook his head: "I don't feel that way...... I want to beat them, though. ”

"Actually, you're upset, aren't you?" Alves asked.

Messi waved his hand: "There is really no ......"

"It's really unpleasant!" Alves came to a conclusion.

Messi has nothing more to say.

The others continued to discuss how to deal with Chu Zhongtian in the game, and they expressed various opinions, such as using foul tactics, frequently using small movements, and provoking him after scoring goals...... Messi continued to wander away from the world.

※※※The above scene happened at lunch today.

Unlike Barcelona's hotly discussed opponent Hoffenheim and Chu Zhongtian, on Hoffenheim's side, everyone was relatively quiet during lunch, and of course there were people chatting, but there was no big discussion with the whole team participating. Many people choose to go back to their rooms for a nap after eating.

After Chu Zhongtian finished eating, he also went for a short nap, got up half an hour, washed his face with cold water, and then went to the gym to warm up and train. The rest of the teammates were also busy with their own things. They didn't get together to discuss how to deal with Barcelona, and the solution was already laid out in the tactical meeting.

There's really nothing to discuss at this time.

For this game, the Hoffenheim players have a simple mind, they are weaker than Barcelona, they have no other ideas than to try to win, they do not think about how to humiliate the opponent and how many goals to win.

It wasn't until after dinner in the afternoon that the Hoffenheim players gathered in twos and threes, waiting for the bus and chatting.

"Chu, why do you want to defend against Messi? The two of you are not in the right position......" Ibisevic leaned over to Chu Zhongtian and asked him.

He thought about it at yesterday's tactical meeting, when Rangnick began to assign defensive tasks, he originally handed Messi over to Sana, but Chu Zhongtian stood up and took the initiative to ask Messi over. Rangnick himself was a little surprised, but he didn't ask, and agreed, and Sana was in charge of the zone defense, not against any one person.

"Messi's position is more alive, of course, but haven't you always thought that my position is also alive, Ibi?" Chu Zhongtian asked rhetorically.

Ibisevic understood. Chu Zhongtian is indeed a player with a very irregular position. Although in the arrangement, he is a midfielder, but when the game is played, he will appear in various positions at any time, one moment as a midfielder, one moment as a front midfielder, one moment as a full-back, and one moment as a second striker, and he can also play the role of central defender. Anyway, he has good physical fitness, can't run to death, and can appear in any corner of the court.

It's really fitting for him to go to see Messi...... In fact, Chu Zhongtian still has a private abacus in it.

He is eager to play against the best of the world, and he has already played with Kaka, Cristiano. Ronaldo has played against him, but he has no chance to compete with the world's No. 1 Messi.

Now that the opportunity has come, how can he let it go?

Now everyone is saying that Messi is invincible, and Barcelona is also invincible, so he has to break these two invincible myths in one game.

No one in this world is invincible.

Just after 5 p.m., the Wimbledon Bar was packed with Wimbledon fans who were about to go to the final. There was no longer any room in the bar, and many people came out to stand on the side of the street and chat with their peers after asking for a beer. It's not surprising that this is the norm in British pubs. Many bars with good business will be like this, after all, the location inside is limited, so there is nothing inconvenient to come outside to drink and chat with a wine glass.

The Wimbledon fans who went to see the game today all wore yellow away shirts. Because Hoffenheim drew an away draw today, they will wear a white away shirt for the game. Wimbledon don't have a white away kit, their away kit is yellow. The yellow ones suddenly looked similar to the white ones, so everyone wore the yellow away shirts.

Emily and Wu Qingyu were also in the group, and when the time came, they went to Wembley Stadium together.

"Take a sip of wine and moisten your throat." Emily handed the glass to Wu Qingyu. They finished the filming of the last scene yesterday, and during the filming, Emily felt in a trance that she was back in the era when she was still in school, and Wu Qingyu was also in a good state, and the filming of that scene went very smoothly. Not once ng. She found that Wu Qingyu was a very studious young man, and he had been studying hard in the past few months of shooting, which was quite similar to Chu Zhongtian.

"What are you going to do when you go back and continue your education?" She asked.

Wu Qingyu shook his head: "I don't plan to go to my current school." I want to be an actor! ”

Emily smiled, "If you really have this plan, I think I can do you a favor...... Love Wimbledon School of Art? ”

Wu Qingyu's eyes lit up, the shooting here let him know the strength of this college, if he can study in this university...... "I like it very much!" He quickly nodded in reply.

"Come here next year to study abroad, like Chu." Emily patted him on the shoulder. "It's just a pity you can't play in the 'Crazy Gang' anymore. They're a professional team now and they need professional players. ”

Boss John came down from the stairs, and as his fat body pressed against the stairs, the wooden staircase creaked as if it was about to break at any moment.

Hearing this crunching sound, everyone stopped communicating and turned their heads to look at Boss John, who looked like a hill.

"Guys, are you ready?" Boss John stood on the last step and asked loudly.

"Ready!!"

Boss John waved his hand: "Very good!" Let's go! Go cheer for Chu!! ”

At half past five in the afternoon, fans appeared on all roads near Wembley Stadium, and the police officers in London were already in a state of readiness, watching the situation around every corner. England fans are notoriously football hooligans, and German fans are no different, while the Catalians are a bunch of extremists who pin their radical political ideas on football, and no one knows if they will do anything out of the ordinary.

The security of this match is even comparable to that of the World Cup final in South Africa.

Wembley is trying to give the world the best final.

Fritz. Abel and his companion Daniel were in the crowd. Neither of them spoke English, but the trip didn't require much communication. They flew in at noon today, and when they arrived in London, they took a map and a tourist brochure and searched for the map, found Wembley Stadium, and waited outside. During this period, I met some German fans, all of whom were Hoffenheim fans, and they chatted happily - Daniel has always claimed that he is not a Hoffenheim fan, but a Bayern Munich fan. The people around don't care, everyone is German, and when they go out, they are all the same, regardless of each other.

Then everyone exchanged their views on Chu Zhongtian's remarks at the press conference.

Daniel looked happy: "Of course, the team that can beat our Bayern Munich should have such confidence! I'm glad Chu can say that, haha! "He first claimed to have come to see Hoffenheim's jokes when he was queuing for tickets, and now he has confidence in Hoffenheim. Abel didn't even know what was going on in his mind. Maybe it's because it's all Hoffenheim fans here, and he's worried about being beaten?

Other Hoffenheim fans were not in agreement, with some agreeing with Daniel's statement and patting him on the shoulder in agreement.

Others are worried, feeling that it would be easy to anger their opponents by saying so now. Originally, they were counting on Barcelona to be arrogant - this was the only way they could think of Hoffenheim to defeat Barcelona, relying on the opponent's light enemy to take the opponent by surprise.

Well, now that Chu Zhongtian said this, Barcelona will definitely not underestimate the enemy, they will only think about how to tear this arrogant team to shreds.

Abel belongs to the category of fans who are confident in Hoffenheim.

"What about angering them? When they are provoked, they will lose their cool, and this is also our chance. I don't think we don't have a chance, there's no such thing in this world that absolutely doesn't have a chance. Barcelona is strong, but we're not weak either, so we're also a team in the final! ”

When he said this, everyone really felt that it was not okay to have such little confidence in their own team.

In the stands, the team still needs them to cheer them on, and if they lack self-confidence, the shouting voice will lose momentum. Losing to Barcelona in momentum, the players on the pitch quickly felt - how could they possibly work miracles if they didn't even believe in their own people?

"I'm from Munich and I think Hoffenheim is a miracle in itself and I started paying attention when they were in the second division. During the winter break that season, Hoffenheim did not do well, finishing bottom of the league and finishing up to the First Division. Later, in the first season of the First Division, how many people would have thought that they would win the championship? And they succeeded. Now this season, how many people would have thought that they could reach the Champions League final? So Hoffenheim is a team that can do miracles. I think our job is very simple, just cheer them on from the stands and expect a miracle to happen. ”

As he said this, Abel suddenly felt a sharp slap on his shoulder.

A woman's voice sounded behind him: "Well said, lad! ”

He looked back to see a middle-aged woman carrying a Hoffenheim flag standing behind him.

"Aunt Corneria!" Someone recognized this woman, she is the leader of the Hoffenheim fans, has been interviewed by many media outlets, and her home is a "famous spot" for many tourists from all over the world to take pictures.

"This young man is right!" Cornelia looked at Abel and asked, "What's your name, young man?" ”

"Abel, Fritz. Abel ......," Abel replied.

"Abel, you're right. We really should have faith in our own team. At Wembley tonight, we're going to make our players hear! ”

Cornelia waved the flag in her hand and made a hunting sound.
