When Valencia and Borussia Dortmund reached the 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League final, the mainstream European media focused on both sides, as they were drawn together in the group stage this season.

Valencia beat home Borussia Dortmund 2-0 away in the first leg at the Westfa-Lun Stadium before drawing at home to Borussia Dortmund in the final round of the group stage.

However, for many pundits, the second game is not of much value, as Valencia have already qualified for the group two rounds ahead of schedule and are still group winners, so they are just focusing more on the league and Copa del Rey competitions.

Dortmund must score points in the final round to ensure that they can advance to the round of 16, this positive and negative game mentality is still a draw, it can be easily seen that Valencia, who is facing the semi-main lineup, has a certain advantage in strength, so there will be no surprises in the Champions League final at the new Wembley Stadium this season.

Plus Elliott has attributes - the king of the finals!

From the beginning of his career to Valencia's Champions League final this season, all the finals were the final victory, the last laugh and the title.

Therefore, the Spanish media have a strong argument that Valencia will equal Ajax and Bayern Munich's second-place record of winning the Champions League for three consecutive seasons.

As the two sides prepare for the Champions League final, the focus of the Chinese media is completely different from that of the mainstream European media, and their attention is on the players, because Valencia captain Ailo and Borussia Dortmund vice-captain Feng Xiaoting are teammates in the national team and close friends in private.

So home games are destined to have a lot of stories to talk about.

Interestingly, the Japanese and South Korean media kept complaining at this time, full of envy, jealousy and hatred......

They have such a mentality, it is easy to understand, before 2008, they can be said to be the boss and second in Asia, but with the rise of the golden generation of the Chinese national youth team of Ailuo, the strength of the Chinese team began to skyrocket.

He finished third at the 2008 Olympic Games, finished fifth at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, won the 2011 Asian Cup, won the 2012 London Olympics and will represent Asia in the Confederations Cup in Brazil this summer.

Does it mean that the Chinese team will bring glory to the whole of Asia?

With a series of outstanding results, the Chinese team has entered the top 10 in the international rankings, and this ranking height is beyond the reach of Japan and South Korea......

The final round of the 2012-2013 Bundesliga season was played on May 18, and the Champions League final was played on May 26, which means that Dortmund only have seven days to prepare for the Champions League final after playing the final round of the league.

However, this has little impact on Dortmund, Bayern Munich has rebounded strongly this season, taking the lead in the league early, and Valencia is a situation in La Liga, with a record six rounds of league titles in advance, so Dortmund is just fighting for a place in the Champions League, that is, as long as they keep second in the league.

Borussia Dortmund's task of retaining the league title was completed as early as the 32nd round of the Bundesliga, so they had more time to prepare for the Champions League final.

The same can be said for Valencia, who won the league title a record six rounds ahead of schedule, even if the final round of the league is played on June 1, with Carlo Ancelotti's side having more time to prepare than Jurgen Klopp.

In addition, Valencia has won the league championship and the Copa del Rey in advance this season, and the whole team is full of momentum, and the players are holding back their energy to win the final Champions League championship in one go, so as to create an unprecedented hat-trick treble!

As the clock ticked down, the 2012-2013 Champions League final approached, with both sides arriving in London three days ahead of schedule to prepare.

Surprisingly, the popularity of the two teams upon their arrival in London was almost equal.

It turned out that Jurgen Klopp's Dortmund started the 2010-2011 season, and their style of play was very good-looking, very strategic, and they were often able to play exciting games, so there were more and more fans who paid attention to them, and tickets for teams in the Premier League were generally more expensive.

At this time, German Airlines appropriately launched a package event for British fans to go to the Bundesliga to watch the game.

Often the price of a Premier League ticket can go back and forth to London and Dortmund, deducting the cost of the ticket, and there is even a leftover, so Dortmund, which has a good style of play, is more loved by British fans.

Needless to say, Valencia, captain Iroh played for Chelsea from 2007 to 2010, known as an epic signing, he led Chelsea to two fantastic Champions League titles, so Chelsea fans will cheer for Iello as long as Iro's game is in the UK!

Therefore, the Champions League final at the new Wembley Stadium after a year is naturally indispensable for Chelsea fans.

Two days before the start of the 2012-2013 Champions League final, CCTV 5's special program "Champions League Final of the Chinese Derby" was presented in front of the majority of Chinese fans.

The content of the program is the dialogue between Valencia captain Ailo and Dortmund vice-captain Feng Xiaoting, after special processing and different sound effects, giving fans the feeling of gunsmoke, no one will give in, and they all vow to win a UEFA Champions League championship for the team again!

The day before the game, Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp rarely left his main players behind for a lecture after training.

Feeling the heavy mood of Klopp, who is usually commensurate with his big brother, all the team members watched quietly.

They all know that with the Champions League final approaching, Klopp as manager is the most nervous.

Soon Klopp said: "Tomorrow we have a Champions League final against Valencia at the new Wembley Stadium and everyone thinks Valencia will win the game, but I'm not convinced! Let's take one step at a time, and even beat Real Madrid by a big score in the semi-finals! We don't have any reason to give in to Valencia, that's right, they're strong! But I want to ask everyone here, are you weak? ”

"No!"

Between the lightning and flint, Feng Xiaoting subconsciously replied.

Klopp glanced at Feng Xiaoting with great appreciation, it seems that he was not wrong to support Feng Xiaoting to become the captain of the team after coming to Dortmont that year.

Dortmund's ability to reach the final this season is inextricably linked to him.
