Chapter 179: The Battle of the Crowning Kings Begins!
The suave Arsene Wenger abandoned the suave at the pre-match kick-off meeting. He flicked the hem of his suit, put one foot on the yellow chair, waved his left hand and said loudly, "Tonight is our chance to prove the best!" I believe in you, you are the best players in the world! β
'For a lot of players, it's a first time. It's normal to be a little nervous and hesitant for the first time, and I hope you will focus now and turn nervousness into fighting spirit, and hesitation into firmness. We have to fight for our championship! β
"What we're going to do is we look back on tonight years from now and we won't regret it."
"Milan is strong, we are strong too, we have been preparing for so long to be on top of Europe on this day. Tonight, let the Stade de France witness our glory! β
"Close your eyes and take three deep breaths!"
The Arsenal player closed his eyes, inhaled hard, and exhaled. Nervousness and hesitation were expelled from their bodies as they exhaled their air, and they sucked the warlike air into their bodies. After three deep breaths, their bodies were filled with battle intent!
β¦β¦
At 7:40 a.m., the starters of both sides stood in the tunnel with caddies next to them. Maldini is at the front, and the horror trio is at the back. Perhaps intentionally, Ronnie, the biggest name, stood at the back of the line. For most of the previous time, this position was unabated.
Tang Jue had no complaints in his heart, even before, it was not that he was willing to stand at the end of the team, it was his teammates who asked him to stand there. In Tang Jue's view, it doesn't matter where you stand. Someone like Ronnie, no matter where he stands, he's still the most important person in the team.
At the back of the Arsenal line-up was Thierry Henry, who warmly hugged Rony as soon as he saw him. Henry politely asks about Ronnie's injuries, and Ronnie laughs and replies that he can now swallow a cow and flip over a few beautiful women in one night.
Henry smiled and shook his head, and hugged Tang Jue again. These two French strikers met on such an occasion. Henry smiled and said in Tang Jue's ear: "Congratulations on winning this year's European Golden Boot Award!" β
Tang Jue smiled: "Last year, I was taken away by you at the last moment, and this year I was almost taken away by Tony." My fate is not very good. Always meet strong opponents. β
Henry smiled and shook his head, he didn't believe that this was Tang Jue's true words. This guy who has always behaved very strongly in front of the media, how can he be sincere when he says this.
"If your fate is not good. This world is in the world. There will be no one who is lucky. Henry said with a smile. He still has something to say: he joined a giant like Milan at the age of eighteen. And Milan now has a neat squad and strong strength. Now there is Ronnie who has joined the monster and is fully recovered.
In the second season, he participated in the Champions League final. Is there anyone luckier than you?
Tang Jue thought for a while and said with a smile: "Maybe what you said makes sense, my luck will definitely be good tonight!" β
Henry's face changed suddenly, but he concealed it well, and immediately returned to normal. This guy kills without seeing blood, and he could be stabbed by his words at any time!
β¦β¦
Holding the caddy, players from both sides walk from the players' tunnel to the court. Tang Jue is a little girl of five or six years old, with delicate skin like a porcelain doll, very cute. The little pink hand in the hand makes people very warm, and doting is born from the bottom of the heart out of thin air.
A few meters behind the player's tunnel were steps, Tang Jue looked at the little girl who was struggling to climb the stairs, and asked softly, "What's your name?" β
"Barris!" The little girl replied crisply, and she was about to climb up the curly. Tang Jue bent down and asked, "Dear Miss Barris, can I hug you?" β
The little girl stopped, thought for a moment and said, "Okay! My dad said he would kiss you if I met you. You hold me, and I can kiss you. β
Tang Jue smiled and hugged Barriss and kissed him on the pink face. Barris laughed happily, and the silver bell-like laughter made Ronnie pick up the little girl beside him as well.
"It's my turn!" After Balice finished speaking, she kissed Tang Jue on the face. She kissed Tang Jue's face again and said, "The one just now represents Dad, and this one represents Mom." β
β¦β¦
The noise in his ears turned into cheers, and when Tang Jue walked into the court with Barris, the deafening cheers came to his face. Countless long guns and short cannons were aimed at the players who walked out of the players' tunnel. The entry of the players means that this battle for the king is about to begin!
Tang Jue whispered in Barris's ear and asked, "Are you afraid?" β
Barris said softly in Tang Jue's ear, "No! Dad told me not to be afraid of anything! β
Tang Jue praised: "You are so brave! β
There was a big ear cup just outside the tunnel and players on both sides were looking greedily at the trophy. Henry and Ronnie looked at the Big Ear Cup with a look like a hungry wolf in their eyes.
Tang Jue suddenly asked, "Do you want to lift this trophy?" β
Barris looked at the Big Ear Cup, shook her head and said, "It's too big for me to lift." β
Tang Jue smiled and said, "If I help you, do you want to lift it?" β
Barris thought about it seriously for a moment and asked, "Why are we lifting it for?" β
Tang Jue thought about it and said, "Because it's our favorite toy." β
Barry thought for a moment and said, "Alright then, let's lift it together." β
Tang Jue whispered in her ear: "After the game is over, I'll go to you, let's lift it together!" β
Barris nodded and said, "It's good! β
β¦β¦
In the middle of the pitch is a huge Champions League flag, just enough to cover the center circle. The flag was pulled up by two dozen teenagers. Four referees stand in the stadium. The Milan players stand on the left side of the referee and the Arsenal players on the right.
Chen Xiu'e, who was sitting behind the bench in Milan, watched her son hugging the little girl, and suddenly had a different thought in her heart, how good it would be if that little girl was her granddaughter, this picture was too beautiful. It gives a warm feeling.
Or, the next time Alice comes back, tell her about it. Chen Xiu'e shook her head in her heart again: No, this wedding has not been held.
The stadium's announcer was introducing the coaches and starters of both sides, and the stadium went silent.
"AC Milan manager, Carlo Ancelotti!"
There was thunderous applause on the field, and the red and black legions in the stands became agitated. Carlo Ancelotti has taken Milan to the Champions League final three times in four years, and he has earned the respect of all Milan fans.
The next step is to introduce the Milan players, each with the name of each player. The Milan fans gave thunderous applause.
"Number 99. Ronaldo! β
The Brazilian fans on the stadium suddenly screamed, some from Brazil, some from Europe, some studying or working in Europe. See healthy Ronnie. How are they not excited. Ronnie politely waved to the fans.
The last thing I read was Tang Jue's name: "No. 7." Tang Dynasty! β
As soon as the words fell. The stadium burst into applause, accompanied by screams and whistles.
The man with glasses stood up and applauded desperately, without Tang Jue. There's no way he's going to sit here and watch a game, and he's in such a good position. Being able to watch the Champions League final at the famous Stade de France is undoubtedly the happiest thing for fans like him. The guys next to him also stood up, and a few of them whistled sharply.
Tang Yuantian's face was full of pride, and his son's applause was the loudest. Wen Ting could feel the fans' love for Tang Jue from the applause, and her cheeks slowly climbed the mountain with two red clouds.
Ronnie said in Tang Jue's ear: "Tang, you are very popular here." β
Tang Jue said with a smile: "This is France, if it is Brazil, it will become your most popular." β
After introducing Milan, the announcer began to introduce Arsenal. Arsene Wenger received enthusiastic applause from the Arsenal fans, and when it comes to the biggest applause, the most enthusiastic is Thierry Henry. The Arsenal King is supported by Arsenal fans and French fans.
Henry smiled and waved to the fans, thinking to himself that he hadn't lost to Don at least in applause. In the post-Zidane era, fans have not yet made their own choice as to who will be the new leader of the French team. In addition to these two, there is also Juve's Patrick Vieira.
The famous football commentator Henrik of France TΓ©lΓ©vision? Hilario said: "From the applause, we saw that both Don and Henry had the greatest support from the fans in the stadium. The two strikers of the French national team could be the key man tonight. β
The applause of Arsenal fans was more about the hope of keeping Henry, and there were media reports before the game that Henry's agent had flown to Barcelona, and Henry used the media to clarify the news. Whether this news is true or not, we all know that the reason for Thierry Henry's move is because he wants to win the Champions League, and tonight is important for him, as long as Arsenal can win the Champions League, he will probably stay at Arsenal. β
After introducing the coaches and players of both sides, Maldini and Thierry Henry went to pick sides, while the rest of the team was making the final preparations. The caddies, led by the staff, left the course. Tang Jue hugged Barris to find assistant coach Marsili and asked him to help bring Barris to the locker room.
Tang Jue squatted on the turf and told Barris: "When you get to the locker room, don't run around, tell Aunt Patricia, let her take you, and when the game is over, I will hold you and lift the trophy." β
Marcili listened to Tang Jue's words, smiled and shook his head, the game had not started yet, and he was already planning to win the trophy. What would have happened if this had been made known by the media? What will the Italian media say, and what will the British media say?
Barris said to Tang Jue seriously: "It's good, I won't run around." You have to remember to hug me after the game. β
Tang Jue nodded seriously, patted her little head and said seriously, "I won't forget it." β
The cameras on the sidelines caught the shot, and Rubinho, the commentator of the Milan sports station, said: "What is Don talking to the caddy, Mr. Gurlit, in your experience, what will he say to the caddie?" β
"Maybe it's a gift for a caddy," Gullitt said. β
β¦β¦
Marsili carried Barice to the door of the Milan dressing room, and he whispered to Barice: "Barice, you go in by yourself, Aunt Patricia is inside." βγ As the team's assistant coach, he has a lot to do, and the game is about to start again.
Barris nodded and said, "It's good! She pushed open the door to the locker room and swaggered inside. Patricia and the Mediaset TV crew, who were looking at the TV on the wall, did not have a chance to go inside.
Patricia looked at Barris strangely, and Barris looked up and asked, "Are you Patricia?" Patricia nodded and said, "Yes, who are you and how did you get here?" β
Barice sat down beside Patricia generously and said, "It was Don who asked me to come to you, he asked me to tell you, you have to take me with you, and after the game, he wanted to hold me up and lift the trophy." β
Lifting the trophy? Patricia and the TV station staff looked at each other, this self-confidence is too strong!
β¦β¦
At eight o'clock, players from both sides stood on the pitch, with Henry and Piret standing next to the football at the midpoint. Football is red and white, and this is what Adidas has prepared specifically for the Champions League.
The famous football commentator Henrik of France TΓ©lΓ©vision? Hilario said: "In the 05-06 season, the Champions League final is about to start, and it was Arsenal in yellow shirts and black shorts who kicked off first. Wearing a red and black jersey and white shorts is Milan. β
"With the referee Norwegian special? The whistle blows and the game begins! β
Rubinho, the famous football commentator of Milan TV, said loudly into the microphone: "The battle for the king officially opened with the referee's whistle, and the most important final of the season began!" (To be continued......)
