As the Dortmund players walked out of the hotel and prepared to board the bus, there was a cheer from the Dortmund fans gathered outside. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The camera flashes in the hands of the reporters were lit up frequently.

Among these fans and journalists, there are also many Chinese faces. Chinese reporters are here to report on Zhou Yi, and that's their job, while Chinese fans are purely here to cheer Zhou Yi on.

After the Champions League final was released on both sides, it is said that in China, some people with a very business vision have engaged in a multi-day tour of Europe to "watch the Champions League final on the spot and cheer for Zhou Yi", and it is said that the business is very hot.

But it's easy to travel to Europe, air tickets, rooms and everything has to be said, but it's hard to buy tickets for the Champions League final.

So in fact, there are very few people who can come to Wembley Stadium in London to watch the Champions League final.

But despite this, there are still many Chinese fans who are willing to spend a lot of money to come to London, even if they can only wait outside the hotel where the Dortmund team stays, and take a look at Zhou Yi from afar, even if they can only watch live TV in a London pub or hotel...... They are all willing.

This is the long-pent-up enthusiasm of Chinese fans.

In the previous Champions League finals, it was not without Chinese fans who went to watch the games, that is, when football and national pride were linked, the energy that erupted was really amazing.

This is the first time that a Chinese player has appeared on the stage of the Champions League final, and this alone is enough to make many Chinese fans excited.

In addition to the fans and tourists from China, there are also many Chinese students in the UK and Europe, and many of them are also fans.

The other players came out of the lobby and waved their hands at best, amid cheers. After Zhou Yi saw those compatriots, he simply walked over and took a group photo with them.

Then he boarded the bus amid everyone's cordial cheering.

Zhou Yi also ran to take a photo with the fans, looking very relaxed and in a good mood. It's a good sign......" In the studio at the back of Beijing, the host had just finished watching the live report sent back from the front with the guests.

"But Zhou Yi has always been like this. I really haven't seen him get nervous...... "One of the guests said.

"Sometimes it's hard to believe it's just a twenty-two-year-old. Another guest, Bai Songyan, sighed. "Who has the demeanor of a player of this age in China who has the demeanor of a general like him?"

"Sun Pan, they're not bad......" the host said.

"Of course, of course. Bai Songyan nodded again and again, "But the feeling they give is still different from the feeling Zhou Yi gives people." Zhou Yi really has a maturity beyond his years, he is only twenty-two years old, but he is already the core of Dortmund, and I think he is also the core of the national team for the next ten years. ”

Bai Songyan has a high opinion of Zhou Yi, but he likes Zhou Yi very much, and it's no secret that he likes it. As a fan, he has also participated in various football-related programs, and in these programs, he has praised Zhou Yi more than once.

Previously, he even thought that if there was anyone among the Chinese players who was most likely to win the Ballon d'Or, it would definitely be Zhou Yi.

This rating is quite high.

And now, looking at Zhou Yi's development trajectory, it seems that it really fits Bai Songyan's evaluation.

By the time the players arrived at the pitch, it was already crowded outside Wembley Stadium.

As far as the eye can see, it is full of yellow-and-black Dortmund fans and red-and-white Bayern Munich fans.

The fans of both teams were already in the square outside the stadium before they were fully inside.

This season, Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich really trembled for a whole season. From the start of the season in the Super Cup, the direct competition between the two teams kicked off, and this competition was completely a matter for the two of them, and the other teams could not get in at all.

In the Super Cup and the German Cup, it was Bayern Munich who won against Borussia Dortmund.

But in the most important league, Dortmund came back from behind to win at the last minute and dealt Bayern Munich a heavy blow.

Today's Champions League final has just moved the competition between the two teams in Germany to the big stage of the whole of Europe.

So much so that some media ridiculed the 2012-2013 season of European football, which is actually the record of competition between Dortmund and Bayern Munich.

There are also media who are worried that the two teams have played each other so many times in China, and they are too familiar, whether it will make this Champions League final no suspense and not exciting enough.

The players from both sides warmed up and returned to their respective locker rooms.

The two managers will have to put the finishing touches on the game.

"Alright, guys, put down your work and listen to me. In the Dortmund dressing room, the last one to come in was always their manager, Jurgen Klopp, who closed the door and slapped loudly.

All the Dortmund players who were busy stopped and turned to look at him.

'Without a doubt, it's the biggest game of the season, more important than any league game. Because this game decides who will be the king of Europe. Klopp began. "There are concerns out there that we are going to lack motivation once we win the league...... But I know you, none of you are content to just win a league title. We've won each of these three seasons, but so what?

Klopp spread his hands.

"To be honest, I'm just worried about one thing – will we feel relaxed by beating Bayern Munich in the league, will we make us feel light, I think it's very likely. Remember more than once in the past week I reminded you to forget about the league, knowing that the Champions League and the domestic league are two completely different competitions, and just because we can beat Bayern Munich in the league doesn't mean we can do the same in the Champions League. If we don't put in 100 percent, then we will lose in the end!"

Klopp's tone became stern.

"Returning to this stage after 16 years, are we just here to 'visit'? No! Of course not! We have overcome so many difficulties just to get a runner-up? No! Of course not!" Klopp shook his fist hard, his body language and impassioned tone infected the Dortmund players in the dressing room. "This season, we came from behind in the league and won the title. Now is the last step to go, don't leave the slightest regret for this wonderful season! That way, when you look back on the 2012-2013 season in a few years, you will be proud that you didn't waste your time, that you put in all the hard work, and that you deserved it!"

Meanwhile, in Bayern Munich's dressing room, Heynckes was mobilizing his players: "I know there's an opinion out there right now – it's a revenge fight. Because in the league they beat us and we lost the league title after a season of lead. I don't deny this point of view, in a sense, it's really revenge. But I have another view, and I think it's also a battle for redemption. ”

The boss looked around at his players.

"It's the third time we've reached the Champions League final in four years since 2010, and it's a stage we're no stranger to, but we've always been a foil to others. Inter Milan in 2010 and Chelsea last year. Losing two Champions League finals has had a big impact on us. The runner-up seems to have become a boulder weighing on all of us. No team has the courage to face a third challenge after losing both Champions League finals in a short period of time. But I'm happy to take on the challenge, and in my opinion, Bayern Munich are very strong enough to reach three Champions League finals in four years, and the only one who can beat us is ourselves. Today's final is not so much a fight against Borussia Dortmund as it is a battle against us in the past and against the shadows that hang over our heads. If we fall for the third time, many will say that this is our life. But are you willing?"

There was no sound in the locker room, but Heynckes had already seen the unwilling fire burning in the eyes of many players.

"There are a lot of strong people in the world who can beat countless opponents, but I think the real strong people are the ones who can beat themselves. Today, you have such an opportunity to be truly strong, thank God for putting this opportunity in front of you, please don't let it slip away like this. ”

Some players stood up excitedly and shouted, "We must win this time!"

"Victory is ours! To hell with the damned fate!"
