Chapter 118, there's nothing to be afraid of

Although the time has entered May.

Although, Lisbon, located in the Iberian Peninsula, has a lower dimension.

However, the sea breeze from the Atlantic Ocean makes this seaside city a pleasant climate.

Neither cold nor hot.

There is also not much rain.

Ideal for outdoor sports.

Compared to the cold, wet and foggy weather in England.

The climate here is just too comfortable.

To say that the biggest dissatisfaction with Yelo's life in London.

The first thing to bear the brunt of that is definitely the weather.

Foggy all year round, humidity is high, and temperatures are low.

I don't see much sunshine.

Then there's food.

The lack of imagination in England is reflected in cooking.

It is the same fish with french fries, french fries with fish

However, Yelo has his own specialized nutritionist.

It is better to endure the desecration of ingredients by the English.

And in Lisbon.

The comfortable climate allowed Ye Luo to get a very comfortable sleep.

When I got up the next day.

He pulled back the curtains of the hotel.

About five or six kilometers away.

The outline of the Stadium of Light, faintly visible.

Meanwhile.

The golden sunlight cut through the roof of the Stadium of Light.

It shone on Ye Luo's face.

The golden light is shining.

Shine brightly.

Countdown: 02:00:00

Audience friends! Audience friends!! This is the Stadium of Light in Lisbon! There are still two hours to go until the official start of this season's Champions League final!! ”

TV picture.

The reporter raised his hand, looked at his watch and said loudly.

"We can see that. Arsenal and Barcelona fans are entering the stadium one after another! ”

TV screen switching.

Under the photograph of a drone.

Under the aerial footage of the entire stadium.

An extremely spectacular sight emerged.

Arsenal fans wearing red and white Arsenal home jerseys and Barcelona fans wearing red and blue jerseys form two distinct streams.

They poured in the same direction.

The focal point of everything.

All focused on the Stadium of Light.

The TV screen switches again.

Arrived at the square in front of the Stadium of Light.

You can see it.

Many faces wearing Arsenal shirts.

It's the people of the Dragon Country.

When they saw the camera, they excitedly showed the red flag in their hands to the camera.

The glorious flag danced in front of the camera.

"Ye Luo! Ye Luo! Ye Luo!! ”

They were chanting.

Countdown; 01:30:00

There is still one and a half hours left before the start of the Champions League final.

The buses of the players from both sides arrived at the stadium one after another.

The cheers of the surrounding fans brought the atmosphere to its peak.

Buses from Barcelona were the first to arrive.

This caused an immediate deafening cheer from the Barcelona fans.

They chanted the names of Barcelona and Messi.

"Messi! Messi! Messi!! ”

The frantic shouts made the atmosphere extremely warm.

This shout signifies what Barcelona fans expect from the team.

Do you have Yelo?

We have Messi!

Five minutes later.

Arsenal buses also arrived.

Before that.

The Barcelona fans have dispersed.

The time now belongs to the Arsenal fans and the Dragons fans.

They have to compete with the Barcelona fans.

Therefore.

Louder decibel cheers.

The door glass of the bus seemed to be vibrating.

The confrontation between the fans permeated the stands of the Stadium of Light.

But.

In the stands.

It was clearly the pro-Arsenal voices that prevailed.

In the stands of neutral fans.

The number of fans wearing Arsenal's jerseys has the absolute upper hand.

According to UEFA's ticket planning.

The Stadium of Light has a capacity of 64,000 people.

UEFA took 4,000 tickets for distribution to sponsors, media and partner agencies.

All you have left is your 6,000 balls.

Huge stands behind two goals.

They are die-hard fans of both sides to go.

Arsenal and Barcelona each received 18,000 tickets.

And the remaining 24,000 tickets.

It is available worldwide.

But as mentioned earlier.

24,000 tickets.

was robbed of more than half by Dragon Country fans.

Dragon country fans fully carried forward the experience of grabbing tickets for the Spring Festival.

Various ticket-grabbing strategies appeared on the Dragon Kingdom network.

According to statistics.

24,000 tickets.

More than half of them were snatched away by Dragon Country fans.

And the remaining half.

About the rest of the Arsenal fans around the world snatched away.

This also means:

Among the 24,000 tickets for the Neutral Zone.

Barcelona supporters.

Less than 4,000 tickets were grabbed.

The 64,000-seat stadium of light.

The number of fans supporting Arsenal exceeded 38,000.

More than half.

And there are only about 20,000 voices supporting Barcelona.

There is a clear difference in numbers between the two sides.

Therefore.

On the pitch at this moment.

The difference in momentum between the fans on both sides.

It's more obvious.

Countdown: 01:00:00

"Audience friends! Audience friends! Players from both sides have come to the stadium to warm up!! There is only one hour left until the game! ”

Countdown: 00:15:00

Fifteen minutes before the game.

Players from both sides who have warmed up enter the locker room.

In the dressing room at Arsenal.

There was a general silence among Arsenal's players.

The starters silently checked their equipment and adjusted their mentality.

Then wait for the manager to make the final pre-game declaration before the game.

Arsene Wenger can tell, although this Arsenal team has won two consecutive Premier League titles.

Although in the mouth of the media, they are already the strongest team in the world.

At least one of them.

But.

In fact, this team is still quite young.

And

This is the first time that most Arsenal players have played at the level of a Champions League final.

In the Arsenal squad.

Players who have played in Champions League finals.

There were only two people, Yelo and Sanchez.

The rest of the players are standing on this stage for the first time.

Therefore, it is normal to be a little nervous.

This side of Barcelona.

They are relaxed.

Because this is the third time that most of them have reached the Champions League final.

Twice before.

They were the 2008-2009 season and the 2010-2011 season.

These two Champions League finals.

The opponents are Manchester United.

Barcelona won the title without any problems.

Manchester United is a team from the Premier League.

Arsenal are also teams from the Premier League.

Therefore.

Barcelona's players still have plenty of confidence in their minds against Premier League sides – they have already humiliated Premier League giants Manchester United twice in Champions League finals.

Enrique looked at his players.

See their relaxed expressions.

I felt the relaxed mood in the locker room.

His faith began to grow.

Ye Luo is very interested.

That's right.

But.

He also needs the support of the team.

We are better than Arsenal overall!

We don't compete with you for the individual strength of the players.

We fight with you as a whole!

Ye Luo is no longer powerful.

Against our whole team.

You may not be able to win!

Barcelona, nothing to be afraid of. (End of chapter)
