Chapter Fifty-Eight: I'm only 17 years old, isn't it reasonable to participate in the World Junior Championships?

Not only did Barcelona fail to complete the comeback at home, but they also lost 4-1 to Arsenal again.

Arsenal not only ended Camp Nou's four-year unbeaten run in the Champions League, but also created the widest semi-final margin since the 1991 Champions League restructuring, even if you look at the overall history of the Champions League, they are second only to Frankfurt's 12-4 defeat of Rangers in 1959-1960, Real Madrid's 8-1 aggregate defeat of Zurich in 1963-64, and Bayern's 7-1 defeat of CSKA Sofia in the semi-finals in 1981-1982.

Interestingly, though, Bayern Munich were ferocious in the semi-finals that season, losing 2-1 to Aston Villa in the final and finishing as runners-up, which should be a wake-up call for Arsenal......

"This is the third time that the Champions League final has seen a matchup between a Premier League team and a Bundesliga team after Manchester United vs Bayern Munich in 1998-1999 and Chelsea vs Bayern Munich in 2011-2012!

The first two were Premier League victories, but it was a tough one.

Manchester United were ready to go 1-0 down in stoppage time, only to stage the comeback of the century in the last minute, and Chelsea even played Bayern Munich on penalties to win thrillingly, I don't know what kind of performance Arsenal and Borussia Dortmund will bring us this time......

"The most explosive rookie in history, even if it's the alien Ronaldo, or the basketball god Michael. Jordan, who has not played such terrible personal data in his rookie season, may only be comparable to Pele, who scored 36 goals in his debut season!

If Lin Yun plays a dominant performance in the Champions League final again, the pressure will come to UEFA's side, that is, whether to award the Golden Ball to a young man who has just debuted for half a season? ”

The combination of a century-old Gunners and the best rookie has caught the attention of almost the entire football world, but Klopp's youth storm at Borussia Dortmund should not be underestimated.

This Hornet won the championship and the German Cup in the 11-12 season of the league against Bayern, the Bundesliga champion, and the passionate coach and young squad are all eye-catching, especially in the semi-finals, Lewandowski's performance of sinking Real Madrid in the three teams is even more popular.

Arsenal have two league games left before the Champions League final.

The Gunners, who have basically locked up the third place in the league, have hidden most of the main players, and regarded these two games as warm-up games, and Lin Yun, a first-class protected animal, can only sit obediently on the bench, and can only wait until the last twenty or thirty minutes of the game to have the opportunity to play.

On 5 May, Arsenal travelled to Queens Park Rangers, who had already been relegated.

One side has overfulfilled the task of fighting for 4 this season, and the other side has confirmed that it will say 88 to the Premier League next season, and everyone has tacitly played a game of health football without desire, and it was not until the 60th minute that Gervinho scored the first goal.

Lin Yun came on as a substitute in the 70th minute and received a pass from Wilshere in the final moments of the game to seal the win for the team.

39th goal of the season and 18th goal in the league.

On May 8, another big event happened in the Premier League.

Alex Ferguson has announced his retirement at the end of the season......

He joined Manchester United in 1986 and remained there until 2013.

During his time in charge of Manchester United, he won an unprecedented 13 Premier League titles, five FA Cups, four League Cups, 10 Community Shields, two Champions Leagues, one European Cup Winners' Cup, one UEFA Super Cup, one Club World Cup and two runners-up Champions League titles.

In terms of individual accolades, he has won the Premier League Manager of the Year 11 times, the Premier League Manager of the Month 27 times, and the best manager of the 90s of the 20th century selected by the LMA, the LMA Manager of the Year 5 times, the LMA Special Achievement Award twice, the UEFA Manager of the Year 1 time, the Premier League Hall of Fame, and the Order of the British Empire, the Commander of the Order of the Order and the knighthood......

Everyone sent their blessings, and the time came to the final round of the league unconsciously.

In the 38th round of the Premier League, at home against Wigan Athletic, Arsenal defeated the opponent 4-1, and Lin Yun came on as a substitute again in the 70th minute.

Wigan Athletic, who had already given up the game, suddenly came to the spirit, and the midfielders and backfielders collectively returned to defend him and defended him strictly, as if they had a deep hatred for him, but in fact they just regarded "clean sheet Lin Yun" as an achievement.

Under such a defense, Lin Yun didn't score anything this time, and finally stopped scoring goals.

When the game ended, almost the entire Premier League breathed a sigh of relief.

This product is recognized as having its own 1-0 attribute, which makes everyone's hearts hairy.

Since the game against Bayern Munich on February 20, Lin Yun has made a total of 16 appearances in the Premier League, World Cup qualifiers, and Champions League, and has scored goals each time.

The players' form is up and down, and there is nothing to make a fuss about occasionally stopping for a game, but Lin Yun started a "goal drought" on the eve of the Champions League final, which made many Gunners fans have to start thinking cranky.

A fear of being dictated by fate arises......

Arsene Wenger didn't care, smiling at the post-match press conference, "Before Lin joined, I had a gentleman's agreement with his parents, that is, it would give him about 8 or 9 games to adapt to the Premier League, but God knows, it took 8 games for the Premier League to get used to him......"

Eight league games, 18 goals, a few of which were substitutes, and the average of more than two goals per game has made everyone lose interest in Arsene Wenger's words.

Either way, at least that's good news for Borussia Dortmund.

Jurgen Klopp and his team studied the game overnight, trying to find the secret of Wigan Athletic's freezing of Lin Yun, but when everyone came out the next day with two panda eyes, they didn't come up with any useful conclusions......

The 2012-2013 season has come to an end for many, but for Arsenal and Borussia Dortmund, the season is only now in its final swing.

But before the finals began, Lin Yun received another special invitation.

"Peter. Taylor? ”

"Yes," Wenger said, "England Under-20 manager, he needs you to go to the World Youth Championships in Turkey next month, and of course, you can turn ...... down'"

"Why should I refuse?"

"Why would you be interested in that level of competition?"

"BOSS, I'm only 17 years old, isn't it the most normal thing to participate in the World Youth Championships?"

"Why do I think it's reasonable for a Ballon d'Or player to go to the World Junior Championships?" Arsene Wenger was speechless, "...... And I didn't say I thought you were 27 years old. ”

"No, do you want to take a closer look?" Lin Yun touched his face, "Although I don't think I'm a child anymore, I don't look ten years older than my actual age, right?" ”

Arsene Wenger slapped him in the head, "You do look too mature at times, but most of the time you are a child. ”

"I can't even tell if you're complimenting me......"

"You just think I'm complimenting you," Wenger shook his head, "Now, forget about your damn World Youth Championship and prepare for the Champions League first, Dortmund is not an easy opponent to deal with." ”

"Talk like we're easy to deal with......"

Given to Peter. After Taylor's affirmative reply, Lin Yun devoted himself to preparing for the finals.

After the end of the Premier League, other leagues have also come to an end.

In La Liga, Barcelona won the title with 100 points, Juventus defended the title in Serie A, Bayern regained the title in the Bundesliga, and Paris Saint-Germain won the Ligue 1......

In this way, Arsenal's Champions League road this time is very interesting.

In the quarterfinals, they won the Bundesliga;

In the quarterfinals, it was the Serie A champion who was defeated;

In the semi-finals, it was the La Liga champion......

Coupled with the recent win over Manchester United in the league, it is equivalent to four of the five major leagues this season's title has already been won by them!

This gives everyone the illusion of traveling through time, as if they have returned to the golden age of the invincibility of the gunslingers, but obviously three months ago, they were still half dead, and the only theme was to fight for four!

Everyone knows when this change began.

No one could have imagined that an inconspicuous transfer in the winter would have such a big impact on the entire European football landscape.

Since the beginning of the 21st century, it is recognized that the transfer has had such a profound impact on the entire football world in 2003, and the reason why it was able to make such a big fuss that year was because it involved all the historical supergiants: at that time, Manchester United wanted to get Ronaldo, Barcelona wanted to get Becky, but by mistake, Ronaldo finally went to Barcelona, Becky finally went to Real Madrid, and Manchester United found Ronaldo, so European football became what it is now.

And this time, the Champions League was so unexpected that it was only because of a small Reading academy player......

It can only be said that the world is unpredictable, and football is really round.

In anticipation, the Champions League final is finally getting closer.

Dortmund came from afar, and hurried into Wembley Stadium to adapt to the venue without much rest, while Arsenal took advantage of the location, and I don't know how many times they have quietly trained here.

Klopp was quite dissatisfied with this, and complained in public many times, but Wenger choked back with a sentence: "Last year's Champions League final was held at the Allianz Stadium, what was the result?" ”

Uncle Scum almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood.

What kind of sin made by Bayern, you let me pay it back?

However, the German media was inspired, combined with Lin Yun, who had just suffered a goal drought, to give a metaphysical speculation that made Bumblebee fans full of expectations.

Last year's final was played in Germany, and England won; This year's final was played in England, so it makes sense for the German team to win, right?

Lin Yun has been arrogant for three months, almost seeing who kills whom, but when he was ready to play the finals, he suddenly couldn't score, you say, isn't this providence? !

This one, the Bundesliga must win!!
