The section of the Moskva River that passes through the center of Moscow is clearly N-shaped, and the Luzhniki Stadium falls right in the middle of this N-shaped section of the river, so it is bordered on three sides by the Moskva River and is surrounded by the Moscow Olympic Sports Center.

The stadium is surrounded by beautiful scenery and beautiful surroundings, especially around the babbling Moskva River, which makes it easy to fall in love with the place, the only regret is that it rains.

The summer in Moscow is rainy and unpredictable, and it's hard to predict whether the weather will improve for tomorrow night's final, and if it still rains like this, it will definitely cause some problems for the game.

The Luzhniki Stadium, or more strictly speaking, the Luzhniki Stadium, because it is not a simple football stadium, but has a track and field track, and the distance between the stands and the stadium is also very long, and the field looks relatively empty, but the atmosphere of the game will be affected to some extent.

Tottenham Hotspur had an earlier acclimatisation session than Manchester United, and it was an open training session, so there were a lot of fans and journalists gathered at the scene, all of whom were watching Tottenham Hotspur's training from the stands.

This training class is mainly to adapt to the venue, and all the training items are for this purpose, so the training content is not a big deal, it is some relatively common content, everyone is accustomed to it, and there is no secret at all.

But from the emotions of the players, it can still be seen that they are more cautious and nervous.

Even for the likes of Franck Franck Ribery, Lionel Messi and Cesc Fabregas, they have not experienced a Champions League final, but this is the first time they have played in a Champions League final on their own, and the pressure they have to face is completely different from before.

In order to adjust the atmosphere of the team and relieve the tension of the players, Ye Qiu specially arranged a lot of relaxation activities, and even directly let the team watch a charter movie of Iron Man, hoping to relax the players' mood as much as possible, but Ye Qiu himself was not sure what the effect was.

After the acclimatization training, everyone in the team was drenched in soup, and then returned to the locker room to take a shower and change clothes, re-board the bus, and return to the hotel, while Ye Qiu took Beckham and Mascherano to the UEFA press conference at the Luzhniki Stadium that night.

The Champions League trophy was handed over to the Russian side by AC Milan captain Maldini as early as April, and now this golden big ear cup is placed in the most conspicuous place in the press conference hall of the Luzhniki Stadium, silently accepting photos from all the reporters and media in the stadium.

Ye Qiu had won two Big Ear Cups, but he was still full of desire for this trophy.

In the past, he helped other people's teams win the Big Ears Cup, but from now on, he wants to win the cup for his own team

"Fascinating, right?" Beckham asked Mascherano with a smile.

The Argentine won the Champions League when he was at Ajax, but this time it was noticeably different because this time he was the captain of Tottenham Hotspur, as was David Beckham, who also won it once when he was at Manchester United.

"There is an unwritten rule in our Premier League, or superstition, that is, before the game, when you see the championship trophy, don't touch it, but tell yourself in your heart that tomorrow I will definitely lift it high"

Although Beckham said this with a smile, his tone was full of determination, but he may not be able to start tomorrow because Modric has been doing well in midfield with Cesc Fabregas and Mascherano for a long time.

After listening to Beckham's words, Mascherano nodded slightly, "We will definitely be able to add a Champions League trophy to the club's 100-year history, we will definitely be able to"

Beckham didn't say much, but patted Mascherano on the shoulder and smiled: "Relax, don't be nervous, just treat it as a normal league game." ”

That's true, but how many people can do it?

Even if he is persuading Beckham, is it really a very calm attitude towards this final in his heart?

After "Gary, Ryan" walked into the venue, Ye Qiu was invited aside by the organizing committee, and Beckham and Mascherano met Manchester United's vice-captains, Gary Neville and Ryan Giggs, who also came to attend the press conference.

"David", two old friends of Manchester United, also came over to say hello.

"How's your injury? Can you play? Giggs asked with a concerned expression.

Beckham looked at his old friend, shook his head, and said, "Is this here to find out information?" ”

All four of them laughed in unison, and whether Beckham started or not was also a question that all the media and Manchester United coaching staff were very concerned about before the game, because Beckham and Modric are two different tactical styles, and Ye Qiu's choice of who to start directly affects Tottenham Hotspur's midfield configuration and attacking style.

Of course, Manchester United has planned for both scenarios, and no matter what configuration Tottenham Hotspur adopts, Manchester United will be able to make targeted arrangements and arrangements in the shortest possible time.

"As I stand here now, I have a feeling that it is calling to me, that it wants to come home with me," Giggs said with a smile as he stared at the big-eared glass, and those who didn't know the way thought he was talking about women.

Beckham also smiled, "The two of us are standing together, no matter how you look at it, it will choose me a little more"

"Just because you're handsome?" Giggs asked rhetorically.

Beckham was not polite, "What do you say? ”

There was another big laugh from the crowd, they were talking about big ear cups, but in fact it was always very reminiscent of women, a group of YD guys, but in Mascherano's ears, he felt that the conversation between the two was very relaxed, and there was no pre-competition pressure at all, as if this was not an important final at all, and they were talking about just a woman standing on the street.

While the captains and vice-captains of the two teams were talking, Ye Qiu and Ferguson also met in a corner of the press conference field.

"It's a lot of pressure to lead a young team, right?" Ferguson asked with a smile.

Maturity is the biggest advantage of this Manchester United team against Tottenham Hotspur, especially the psychological advantage.

In the final, especially in such an important crucial final, the mental quality plays a decisive role, and to some extent, it is more important than the tactics of the manager, and the quality of the players.

Compared with Manchester United's group of mature players, Tottenham Hotspur's age is indeed much immature, even if he has played in the Premier League for two seasons, but it is difficult to say such a thing as experience, and the players' psychological self-regulation ability is not mature enough.

Can you imagine that when you are about 20 years old, your level of mental maturity is about the same as when you are 25 years old, or when you are almost 30 years old? By contrast, you can feel Tottenham's weaknesses and shortcomings in this area.

In the face of Ferguson's provocation, Ye Qiu also smiled and shot back, "I like the momentum of young people, it's really not easy for you to lead this senior team, by the way, Gary Neville's injury is okay, right?"

Ferguson smiled, the two of them can be said to be half a catty to eight taels, and the tip of the needle is to Maimang.

It should be said that maturity has the benefits of maturity, and youth has the advantage of being young, and it is difficult to say who is more advantageous and who is more disadvantaged, but one thing is certain, that is, whoever can dominate the game will be able to win.

The two coaches didn't talk in the corner for too long, and soon the organizing committee announced the start of the press conference, Ye Qiu and Ferguson were the protagonists of this press conference, and the captains and vice-captains of the two teams were also present.

When Ye Qiu and Ferguson both sat in the position of head coach, all the reporters and players present saw from their faces that they were relaxed and not a little nervous, and it seemed as if this kind of thing was as normal for them as eating and sleeping, but everyone knew very well in their psychology that this was actually a kind of smoke bomb.

No one can underestimate the impact of the Champions League final on professional players and coaches

Ye Qiu felt the look in Mascherano's eyes looking at him, and he smiled at his captain with ease, as if telling him, don't be nervous, everything is with me, what are you afraid of?

It was the first time for Mascherano to appear on this kind of occasion, he felt that there were at least hundreds of media reporters at the scene, the crowd was surging, and the scene was a little scary, and compared to Ye Qiu, he was like a soldier under the command of a veteran marshal, who was on the battlefield for the first time, always with a feeling of anxiety.

Also present at the press conference was the referee of the Champions League final, Michel from Slovakia, who is the top international referee in Europe, who is fluent in English, German, Russian and Polish Chinese, and can be said to be a linguistic all-rounder, who has also officiated in the Euro 04 and the UU World Cup.

Ye Qiu and Ferguson have no problem with arranging Michelle to enforce the law, and Ferguson even secretly joked with Ye Qiu, because the only thing that is worse than the referee is Portuguese, and Tottenham Hotspur has many Latin American players including Alves, Vargas, Thiago Silva, Mascherano, Messi and so on.

"Ha, Jazz, I should consider having my players scold you in Portuguese, so that I can escape the referee's punishment and ⊥ you a little better, what do you think?" Ye Qiu retorted with a smile.

Ferguson was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, he didn't feel angry, because Ye Qiu was joking, and he also had thoughts that made him angry, if he was angry, it was really a trick.

"Perhaps, you can try," Ferguson replied lukewarmly.

But soon, in the face of interviews with reporters and the media, he took revenge on Ye Qiu.

'Yes, there is no doubt that we are better than Tottenham Hotspur and we have beaten Tottenham Hotspur in the last two meetings this season without a doubt, and I am sure that will definitely have an impact on their mentality, and we will learn from these two wins and build up the confidence to win the game.'

'Tottenham Hotspur are a team with a lot of strength and weakness, when they play well, they are almost invincible, they are unbeatable, and they have enough attacking prowess ⊥ any team in the world to be feared, but there are always times when they are out of form.

'We've shown in two games over the past season that we always have a way to make Tottenham look out of shape in the game and beat them'

Ferguson's series of answers made the reporters present very excited, this is a naked tit-for-tat, especially in the face of Tottenham Hotspur, Ye Qiu has two Champions League in his hands, and Ferguson only has one, the war of words between the two famous coaches is definitely a big highlight before the game.

So, after Ferguson finished answering, the reporter immediately threw the question to Ye Qiu, hoping that Ye Qiu could counterattack.

"I can understand Sir Alex Ferguson's arrogance and arrogance, because he has always been such a person" Ye Qiu glanced at Ferguson and replied with a smile, he saw Ferguson's eyes widen, obviously stimulated by Ye Qiu, but he quickly calmed down, and it looked as if he was constantly telling himself, I can't be angry, I can't be angry, I must not be angry.

"We Chinese have had a lot of proverbs about such situations, such as boxing is afraid of being strong, and there is arrogance that the army will lose, and the other is that the mourning army will win, I have never felt that there is a big difference in strength between us and Manchester United, if you look at the past two games, it is not difficult to find out what the specific situation is."

'Yes, in the past, Manchester United have won us twice in a row, but that doesn't mean they can continue to win in the next Champions League final, but I'd love to see Manchester United so proud and look at us with that attitude to motivate us, because in the past, all the teams that stimulated us had only one game.

After a pause, Ye Qiu smiled extremely confidently and said, "That is, the loss is unbearable."

After hearing this, Ferguson could only shrug his shoulders and said to Ye Qiu with a smile: "Then I can only wish you good luck tomorrow"

Both stood up and shook hands politely in front of hundreds of reporters at the scene.

At the end of the press conference, Ye Qiu and Beckham returned to the hotel, and by this time, there were more and more fans inside and outside the hotel, because tomorrow night is the Champions League final, and many people have arrived in Moscow tonight.

After Ye Qiu returned to the hotel, he first went to the lower floor to see his wife and two children, as well as his mother and mother-in-law.

Huang Jinsong and Ye Changming are still in China and are working hard for the earthquake relief work, Ye Qiu has also made a small contribution to the earthquake relief in his own way, not only donating money, but also saving many lives because of the series of work he did in advance.

Chen Zhong also came to Moscow with his wife and two children, and he also discussed with Ye Qiu about the construction of a five-star hotel in Stratford's Olympic Park, he said that the hotel design has come out, and he plans to wait for the Champions League final to go to London to further discuss the next step.

After returning to the floor where the hotel was located, Ye Qiu found that the players couldn't sleep, and they all gathered in Beckham's room, discussing the Champions League final that will come tomorrow, and many people were asking Beckham how he spent his time before Manchester United's Champions League played Bayern.

It was clear that they were still nervous even now.

Nervousness, this is certainly true, because if you are not nervous, there will be problems, but the key is how to resolve your own tension and avoid affecting the game because of nervousness, which requires the players to figure out their own way.

"I've played so many Champions League finals, why hasn't anyone asked me?" Ye Qiu walked in with a smile, immediately attracting the attention of all the players, and after hearing Ye Qiu's words, they all showed inquiring eyes one by one.

Looking at the eyes of the players, Ye Qiu felt a kind of dependence, he was a little dignified, but he pretended to smile.

'I've played three Champions League finals, won twice, lost once, and before every Champions League final, even before every game, I get nervous because before the game, no one knows what the outcome will be, no one knows if the game will win, and none of us want to disappoint the people who sit in the stands, cheer us on, support us, don't we?"

A lot of players can't help but nod their heads, no one wants to disappoint the fans, that's for sure.

"I was thinking, to reach the Champions League final, why is there any pressure to do? And which team was born to win the Champions League? Even if Real Madrid and Barcelona reach the Champions League final, it's remarkable, let alone us? Before the season, who of you would have believed that the team would come to Moscow? ”

"I guess all of you at that time, even all the Tottenham Hotspur fans, were thinking, I guess when other people played in the Champions League, we were already on holiday, but we were standing here at the end of the day, and this is a victory in itself, even if we lose at the bottom, it is a victory"

After listening to Ye Qiu's words, many players nodded their heads, obviously thinking that Ye Qiu's words made some sense.

"Also, I ask myself, what am I afraid of? Afraid of losing? Why are you afraid of losing? Or is it for fear of disappointing those fans? But they originally had no hope of the Champions League, and now that they have reached the final and have won, why will they be disappointed? ”

"Then, I kept telling myself that we were able to come to this place, to be able to walk into this stadium, which is an affirmation, an affirmation of our hard work in the past, so we don't need to be pressured, we don't need to be afraid, on the contrary, we should be brave, try to play, and tell our opponents with facts that we have finally walked into this stadium after countless tough games, through the hard work and sweat of countless teammates."

"We came to the Luzhniki Stadium not only for a win, but more importantly, to prove to everyone and the world that we are Tottenham Hotspur, maybe we are not giants, but we are not the foil of the giants, we are not here to make up the Champions League final, we are here to win the championship"

"Also, what I want to tell you is to put away your senseless fears and nervousness, because those can't help you, since we are here, we must go out of our way, go all out, and fight with each other"

"Suffice it to say, when you walk into the Luzhniki Stadium, you have only one way, you either win, you win everything, you win the honor you never had before; Either you lose, you lose everything and become a stepping stone to Manchester United's Double"

"Whether it's a dragon or a worm, I don't count it, you are qualified to decide"
