In a box at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Barça's acting president Bartomeu was chatting with his confidant Mas Ferrer about the Barcelona club's presidential election this summer.

Last year, Rusell was forced to resign early due to a number of scandals caused by the transfer of Neymar.

As Barça's first vice-president, Bartomeu temporarily succeeded him as Barça's 40th president.

After experiencing what it was like to be president, Bartomeu developed ambitions, and he was not willing to be the acting chairman for only two years.

So he plans to officially participate in the presidential election this summer, remove the word proxy from his body, and officially become the 41st president of Barcelona.

And his main rival is the former president of Barcelona, Joan Laporta.

As the founder of the Dream Three Dynasty, Laporta holds a high position in the hearts of Barcelona fans and is the favourite to become the next president thanks to the connections and prestige he has accumulated during his initial presidency.

Compared to Laporta, Bartomeu's qualifications are too shallow, and he has no merits.

Therefore, if he runs for president with Laporta in the normal way, the probability of Bartomeu losing is extremely high.

However, Bartomeu has an advantage that Laporta does not have.

That is, he is the acting president of Barça, and he can mobilize most of the resources of Barça club to his advantage.

Therefore, as long as he accumulates enough qualifications and merit before the election, and makes the Barcelona fans recognize and accept him, then his chances of winning will be greatly increased.

To this end, during his time in power, Bartomeu appointed Enrique as head coach and brought in key players such as Suarez, Rakitic, Bravo, and Ter Stegen in an attempt to impact Barcelona's fifth Champions League trophy and the second treble in team history!

This season, Barcelona has successfully won the league championship and the Copa del Rey with MSN's outstanding performance.

Now, they are just one away from winning their second treble, and this last and most valuable Champions League trophy is missing!

As soon as he thought of this, Bartomeu's mood couldn't help but get excited.

After a year and a half of planning, it's finally time to harvest.

"Hehe, Enrique really has two brushes, our offensive in the front court is getting more and more aggressive, Manchester City is estimated to not last long!"

Masferer's mood is also very excited, he is Bartomeu's henchman, as long as Bartomeu is enlightened, his henchman will naturally follow the chicken dog to heaven.

Running such a big club involves hundreds of millions of euros in transfer transactions, which is very lucrative.

Russell's gray income was close to tens of millions of euros just by being found, and if he didn't find out, I'm afraid only he knows the specific amount.

"Well, Messi is getting better and better in the second half and I have a hunch that he's going to score soon!"

Bartomeu had a faint smile on his face, and he gestured with an air of everything under control.

Maasferer looked adoring, worthy of the future chairman, and this momentum is becoming more and more like the real chairman.

However, as soon as Bartomeu's words fell, a new goal was really produced.

However, it was not Barcelona who scored, but Manchester City.

In the 58th minute of the second half, Lin Quan received De Bruyne's wonderful pass and went to the meeting, completing a brace and rewriting the score to 2:1!

Manchester City reversed Barcelona and took the lead temporarily!

Seeing Lin Quan send the ball into the door of Barcelona for the second time, Bartomeu's smile stiffened on his face.

It was as if he heard the sound of something shattering, it was his dream to become the president of Barça!

……

In another box, Laporta, who is also going to run for club president this summer, saw Lin Quan score Manchester City's second goal, and his first reaction was to be furious.

In his heart, he greeted Enrique and Bartomeu's family, and then realized something, and his face showed a hint of joy.

"Hehe, doesn't that old boy of Bartomeu expect to compete with me with this championship? Now that the championship is hanging, isn't the position of club president in my pocket? ”

"Sure enough, the Dream Four Dynasty is going to be established in my hands, and I have to thank Bartomeu, Suarez and Neymar are really worth it!"

On the court, Lin Quanke ignored the intrigue of the two candidates for the president of Barcelona.

After seeing the football roll into Barca's goal, he put one hand to his ear and ran towards the edge of the pitch near the stands.

A deafening whistling sound suddenly sounded at the scene!

The Manchester City fans shouted excitedly, giving all the beautiful words to their heroes!

Sure enough, Lin never let them down in major competitions!

"See, this is the pride of our Manchester City, this is the real number ten!"

In addition to the excitement, Manchester City fans couldn't help but show off to the neutral fans around them and even the Barcelona fans.

Looking at them like this, it seems that they can't wait to show off Lin Quan to the whole world, for fear that others won't know that Manchester City has such a great player as Lin Quan!

"Not bad, Lin Huang is really powerful, Manchester City has really picked up a treasure!"

"Alas, when this guy played in the Bundesliga before, I saw that this son was extraordinary, but I don't know what the Bundesliga team is doing, why don't you leave him behind!"

"It is said that Bayern once contacted Lin Quan, but then I don't know what the reason was, the two sides did not negotiate, and I don't know if Bayern regrets it now."

In a box somewhere in the stadium, Bayern president Rummenigge and manager Hoeness both had ugly faces.

At the beginning, between Gotze and Lin Quan, because Gotze was a local player, they chose Gotze.

In retrospect, this decision was utterly stupid.

Although Gotze is not bad, buying him for 37 million euros is not a loss.

But compared with Lin Quan, whose worth has risen to 250 million euros, Gotze is not even worthy of lifting shoes for him.

These two are not players of the same grade at all.

There was once a peerless genius placed in front of them, and they did not cherish it.

Wait until you lose it to regret it, and there is nothing more painful in the world than this.

If God could give them a chance to do it again, they would say three words to that player: Come to Bayern!

If they had to put a deadline on the contract, they would want it to be...... 10,000 years.

Even if I retire, I have to stay at Bayern to be my Bayern celebrity!

However, they no longer have such an opportunity.

On the side of the pitch, after Guardiola saw Lin Quan's dashing goal, he opened his arms excitedly, jumped up on the spot, and waved his fists wildly in celebration.

After completing this celebration, he stretched out two hands, an index finger in his left hand, and the thumb and index finger of his right hand were pinched into a circle, side by side to form a number '10'.

After comparing this number, Guardiola raised his arm again and again, signaling the audience to give Lin Quan, who scored the goal, with more enthusiastic applause.

"Damn, Guardiola is actually asking for applause for Emperor Lin, am I not mistaken?"

"The last person to have such treatment seems to be Messi, right?"

"Hehe, Lin Huang's performance in this game is not at all inferior to Messi at his peak, not to mention that he is still the adopted son of Guardiola, so it's not surprising to hang up!"

"Damn, melon baldness, you are more restrained, your mouth is crooked!"

On the other side of the pitch, when Messi saw this scene, he inevitably felt a little bitter in his heart.

Guardiola has only done this to him, and at that time, he was the only person in Guardiola's heart, and now he ......

This gave him the feeling that someone he cared about very much was suddenly empathetic.

On Barcelona's coach's side, Enrique looked a little angry after seeing the goal.

There was a big hole in the defense this time, why didn't anyone stop De Bruyne's link?

As long as someone stops De Bruyne from delivering that lethal pass, the goal won't be conceded.

Thinking of this, he called Rakitic over and told him to go back and talk to the players to cheer up.

From Barcelona to the time when Barcelona scored the first goal and now the score is behind, they have been scored twice in a row by their opponents.

If their offense doesn't improve, then this game will be a long way off.

After receiving Enrique's reprimand, the whole Barcelona team looked like a big enemy.

The quick start of the game made them look down on Manchester City a little bit, thinking that Manchester City was nothing more than that.

Now they have paid the price for their dismiss, and now that Barcelona are behind, if they don't want to say goodbye to the treble winners who are close at hand, they will have to fight for their lives in the next game.

Soon, after Manchester City finished their celebrations, the game resumed.

Barcelona directly sounded the horn of counterattack and launched a more fierce attack on Manchester City.

In the 67th minute of the game, Rakitic did not give the ball directly to Messi after dribbling through the half.

Instead, he personally dribbled the ball forward, attracted the opposing defender to press forward, and then transferred the ball to Xiaobai.

Xiaobai broke forward and forced N'Golo Kante to defend after passing Kroos.

Seeing Kante rushing towards him, Iniesta didn't dare to be careless, he didn't grasp the opponent, so he quickly passed the ball to Messi when Kante was about to get closer.

Although Kante abandoned Xiaobai for the first time and rushed to Messi, it was already too late.

Messi won the ball and drove straight into the middle of the field.

At this point, Suarez and Neymar were both running.

Manchester City's defense was pulled by these two and couldn't spare too many troops to defend Messi.

Van Dijk had to bite the bullet and step forward alone.

Last time, it was he who relied on the way of retreat to press Messi's space to dribble, which cooperated with Kante to complete the interception.

This time, Van Dijk wants to do it all over again.

But how could Messi give him a chance?

As soon as he saw Van Dijk's plan, Messi immediately rushed up at a faster speed, and the two rapid changes of direction passed Van Dijk, who had not fully grown up and had not accumulated enough experience.

A tall central defender like Van Dijk has a strong defensive ability and a large area when defending head-on.

But they generally have a disadvantage, that is, they are slow to turn.

Neymar has been running and waiting for Messi's pass, and of course Messi could also shoot on his own, as Messi's men have lost their defensive positions.

Messi burst into the box and already had a chance to shoot with his feet.

With a teammate like Messi, Kompany naturally knows how dangerous a player like Messi is.

So, the moment Messi entered the penalty area, he abandoned Suarez and rushed towards Messi.

In any case, Messi had to be stopped from shooting.

As for Suarez, this can only be handed over to his teammates who fill in the position.

Although he didn't have time to communicate with his team-mates, the tacit understanding formed by playing together for a long time convinced Kompany that his team-mates at full-back would definitely fill in for him.

Kolarov did come to fill in the position, but he didn't catch up in time.

As a top goalscorer, how could Suarez let go of such an opportunity?

Just as Suarez started, Messi passed.

Suarez aimed at the goal, did not adjust, and volleyed directly.

Keylor Navas made a god-quality save to keep out Suarez's close-range shot.

However, before the City fans could breathe a sigh of relief, a diminutive figure rushed over like a gale, finishing the rebound before the defenders cleared the bounced ball.

The Olympic Stadium was in a bleak period of success, and within a second, the audience was thunderous with applause and cheers.

Countless Barcelona fans were in a state of boiling at this moment, and their hero finally stepped up and scored this crucial goal for the team.

The score became 2:2 drawn, and the two sides returned to the same running line.

This goal shows Messi's super individual strength and the deterrent power created by the MSN trio linkage.

With less than 70 minutes left on the table, both sides have at least 20 minutes to spare.

Whoever can score first in those last 20 minutes will have the last laugh.

Of course, if neither side is able to score again in the following games, the game will go to extra time.

At this point in the game, the two teams had nothing to keep, and they both sacrificed their last hole cards and began to go all out.

Pep Guardiola shouted at the players on the sidelines as a way to remind them to be in position and to stay in formation.

His transformation of the team is not completely complete, and the players have not been able to execute his set of tactics perfectly.

So Pep Guardiola had to remind his players in this way that they could be better defensively.

Enrique, who was next door, couldn't help frowning, he only felt that Guardiola's shouting frequency was too high.

What the hell is Pep Guardiola doing?

Thought that letting the players change their positions would stop Barcelona's attack?

Enrique is quite disdainful in his heart, even the Serie A team, which is known for its chain defense, can't resist Barcelona's strong attack, Manchester City's defense is far worse than the strong team in Serie A, how can it be blocked?

However, as the game progressed to 70 minutes, the physical exertion of the players on both sides increased considerably.

Enrique was stunned to find that Barca's attacking threat was rapidly declining.

Their players were passing in and out of the opposition half, but they couldn't form a threatening forward pass, more just crosses and backs.

Manchester City, on the other hand, although their possession rate is not high, but the quality of counter-attacks is very high, and they can pose a threat to Barcelona's goal almost every time.

Had it not been for Ter Stegen's courageous performance, which saved Lin Quan and Sergio Aguero in quick succession, Manchester City would have taken the lead again.

What's going on?

Why is this happening?

Enrique was puzzled!
