Chapter 238 The Final Begins

When the players from both sides were standing in the tunnel waiting to come out, there was no conversation between them. They all stood silently and solemnly in their own teams. These two teams have been outright enemies this season. Their rivalry has spread to all areas. This hostility makes both sides look bad when they see each other.

While the players were standing in the tunnel waiting to come out, in the stands outside, fans from both sides had already begun the competition.

This time fans from both teams occupied a stand behind the goal.

And they all erected huge TIFOs on their own sites.

Dortmund's fans first used yellow and black pieces of paper to create a huge background. On the black background was a yellow "97".

This is what it means in 1997. That year Dortmund won the first Champions League championship in their club history. In the final, they defeated Juventus 3:1. Then, a giant TIFO slowly rose from the bottom of the stands, showing the scene of Riddle, Ricken and meritorious coach Hitzfield lifting the Champions League trophy. The scene was extremely shocking.

It also attracted a lot of attention and cameras and camera lenses.

Dortmund fans are very good at using this method to create an atmosphere.

In comparison, Bayern Munich's TIFO is slightly inferior. Although their TIFO is also huge, it is only spread on the stands, unlike Dortmund's which has an "animation" effect.

Therefore, in the fan showdown before the game, Bayern Munich was temporarily at a disadvantage.

When Chinese reporters saw this scene, they couldn't help but sigh: "Dortmund fans still know how to play..."

When the giant TIFO was completely raised and fixed, the Champions League theme song also sounded on the scene, which meant that the players from both sides were about to appear!

The timing was just right, as if the Champions League theme song was played for Dortmund's TIFO. This coincidence really makes people wonder if Dortmund fans have practiced it many times in advance...

Just the appearance of this TIFO made the Dortmund fans outshine the Bayern Munich fans. The Bayern Munich fans in the opposite stands were very unhappy.

But they couldn't help it. This appearance was indeed not as innovative as the Dortmund fans.

They can only hope that their team will be defeated in the game and vent their anger on them.

No matter how much they laugh at the Dortmund fans,

It was impossible for the other party to fight back.

During the Champions League theme song, the players from both sides entered the stadium under the leadership of the referee team. The cheers were thunderous for a while, almost overwhelming the music played through the speakers.

"Friends from the audience! Players from both sides are now on the field!" He Ping said excitedly at the scene. He raised his voice desperately to prevent his voice from being suppressed. This is the difference between on-site commentary and behind-the-scenes commentary. In the rear studio, the sound coming from the scene needs to be processed so that the sound from the scene is not so loud. The TV audience can hear the commentator's voice effortlessly. . Under such circumstances, the commentator basically does not need to shout at the top of his lungs except when commenting on goals.

But at the scene, almost every word needs to be spoken at the top of one's lungs, and the commentary becomes very tiring, but the spirit is always high.

The TV broadcast gave many players close-ups, and Zhou Yi was naturally indispensable.

Zhou Yi in the camera was as usual. After coming out, he looked around and looked around at everything in the stands, just like Grandma Liu who had just entered the Grand View Garden. Everything felt novel and he had to take a second look at everything.

Unlike his teammates and opponents who were silent and serious-looking, Zhou Yi looked like a primary school student on an outing. Among the solemn crowd, he looked a little dazzling...

After all the procedures were completed, including lining up, shaking hands, exchanging team flags, and choosing sides, the players from both sides came to their respective halves, waiting for the game to begin.

During this time, the commentators were busy announcing the starting lineups of the two teams for this game.

He Ping was among them.

Bayern Munich and Dortmund both fielded the strongest lineups they could field, leaving nothing to chance.

Dortmund's starting goalkeeper is Weidenfeller, who is also the captain on the field. On the back line, Piszczek served as right back, Schmelzer left back, and Hummels and Subotic partnered as center back. In the midfield, Sven Bender and Gundogan formed a double defensive midfielder. Zhou Yi was in the front and center as the attacking midfielder, while Kuba and Royce were on the left and right. There is Lewandowski on the front line.

Bayern Munich's formation is similar to that of Dortmund. The starting goalkeeper is Neuer, right back Lahm is also the captain, left back Alaba, and center backs are Boateng and Dante. The midfielders Martinez and Bastian Schweinsteiger partnered as the defensive midfielders, Muller was in the center of the frontcourt, Ribery and Robben were separated on the left and right, and Mandzukic was at the front playing center.

After the players on both sides stood still, the referee on duty for this game, the famous Italian whistler Nicola Rizzoli, blew the whistle and the game officially started!

The first kickoff of this game was Bayern Munich, wearing red jerseys. In the first half, they attacked from left to right, with their own fans behind them, and the direction of the attack was towards the stands where the Dortmund fans were.

Perhaps it was because both sides were so familiar with each other that after the game started, there was no testing and they both directly started attacking and fighting.

First, Bayern Munich took advantage of their kick-off opportunity to launch an attack that ended with Mandzukic's shot going over the crossbar.

Immediately afterwards, Dortmund took advantage of the opportunity to gain possession of the ball and launched a fierce attack on Bayern Munich's goal.

Zhou Yi sent a wonderful pass to Royce. Royce cut inside with the ball and shot. The football hit the side netting in the near corner, causing a burst of exclamations from the stands.

Some commentators couldn't see clearly and almost thought a goal was scored.

"Royce! It's so dangerous!"

"I almost scored a goal!"

"Just over two minutes into the game, Dortmund had such a threatening shot! It looks like there will be something good in today's game!"

"Zhou Yi almost completed an assist just now. Royce's shot was too angular..."

Royce himself was upset that he failed to seize this opportunity, but he also did not forget to thank Zhou Yi who passed the ball to him. After regretting with his hands on his head, he turned around to find Zhou Yi and gave him a thumbs up.

Zhou Yi also gave a thumbs up.

Royce didn't score the goal, so he didn't care. Anyway, it wasn't a particularly good opportunity. If he didn't score, he didn't score. The game is still long. If the goal can be scored, it will be great. If it can't, it's okay. Just keep working hard.

Because of his familiarity, Zhou Yi was closely monitored by Bayern Munich during the game. No matter where he moved, there would be at least one Bayern Munich player around him. And once the football came to him, the Bayern Munich players around him would move. It will surround him very quickly.

For Zhou Yi, this requires him to handle the ball faster and more accurately, and it also requires him to minimize the time the football is at his feet.

Zhou Yi is no stranger to such intensity of marking. He often receives such treatment in the Champions League. It would be strange if he didn't.

In this regard, Zhou Yi will not find it too much trouble.

There is no completely airtight defense in the world, nor is there any truly tight-knit coverage. Just because the opponent has strengthened their defense does not mean that they have no chance at all in this game.

Since he played in the Dortmund first team, he has played with Bayern Munich for more than three years, and he is also very familiar with Bayern Munich's set of things. Not to mention that in the virtual space, he has played nearly a hundred games with Bayern Munich. He has to play against Bayern Munich at least seven times in the virtual space every night. Such repeated confrontations would make most people vomit.

Through these simulations one after another, Zhou Yi is already very familiar with Bayern Munich's routines.

No matter how tight the defense is, he can still find opportunities.

In fact, if he were Heynckes, he wouldn't put so much effort into himself, but would keep a close eye on his teammates. Compared with themselves, Royce and the others do not have one simulation game after another to train their troops. They are still normal people and can be contained by normal people's methods...

It's much less expensive to defend that way.

Instead of like now, even if Bayern Munich invests the defensive power of two players on themselves, it may not be able to achieve very good results, and they will also weaken the defensive power of other Dortmund players because they care too much about themselves. ...(To be continued)).
