Chapter 1069 Focus Figure
To be honest, although the San Siro has hosted the Champions League final for the fourth time and is one of the most famous five-star football stadiums in the world, the facilities are aging and the layout is unreasonable from today's perspective. Especially in the locker room.
The stadium was last renovated 26 years ago in 1990, the year Italy hosted the World Cup. Since then, the Milan Municipal Government, the owner of the Meazza Stadium, has not invested in the stadium except for the turf. additional funds.
Even in the locker room, Sun Wu wanted the players to calm down and watch a scenic movie without food and equipment and had to find a way on their own.
However, the boxes above the Meazza Stadium stands are quite luxurious, and yes, the Moratti family and Berlusconi, the owners behind Inter Milan and AC Milan for so many years, are not ordinary people.
A dark-skinned young man who looked a little weird stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window of the box. Looking at the picture on the big screen, he suddenly waved his hand vigorously and shouted: "Nice pass!"
The promotion paths of Manchester United and Real Madrid were being played on the big screen outside. Cristiano Ronaldo's super long shot broke through Atletico Madrid's door, Sun Wu's clever back heel volley shot, Herrera scored in a world wave, Bale's falling free kick...
The young man looked at the red and white fans below with envy, and the anthems of Manchester United and Real Madrid sung by the fans in the stands kept ringing in his ears.
""Lift It High" is the only one of Manchester United's four team anthems sung by players." Jimmy Ryan, Manchester United's director of youth football, introduced: "It was created to commemorate the great season of 1998-1999. It rose as high as No. 11."
The young man's expression moved slightly. After winning the league championship and the FA Cup, it certainly had a special meaning for Manchester United fans to sing this song loudly at this time. Manchester United won the Triple Crown for the first time that season.
Watching Jimmy Ryan walk out of the box, the tall and fat agent standing aside smiled and said: "Killian, although he did not start, he might be able to see Fabinho and Bernardo come off the bench. They They are all core players of Manchester United."
"Look at this box. Manchester United is very interested in you and is even willing to pay a considerable training fee to Monaco for you."
"Look at Lucas and Pavard. One is 19 and the other is 18. They are not much older than you, but they are likely to win the Triple Crown. They will be the main force in the European Cup in a month's time!"
"And Kante, the defensive midfielder dug out from Ligue 2, oh, he has already pushed Schneiderlin and Matuidi to the bench!"
"Manchester United's Best is the head coach who likes to use young players the most in Europe, and French football produces an average of about 10 talented players every year. If he can get his attention..."
"So in March this year, you strongly suggested that I not sign that three-year contract with Monaco." Kylian Mbappe curled his lips, "In fact, Real Madrid is also very interested in me..."
"But Zidane will never let you play a lot of games, and Best will probably..."
"We'll wait and see." The precocious Mbappe shrugged, "If Manchester United can win the Triple Crown, maybe..."
The agent was stunned for a moment and then nodded. This is a truth that everyone understands. After winning the Triple Crown, it is impossible for Manchester United not to change dynasties. This is a pain that any team must go through. If they don't do this... the end result will be the same as those of the previous three teams. Inter Milan after the crown.
"Look, they're here!"
To the sound of the Champions League theme song "League", the players from both sides slowly walked out of the player tunnel, passed under the temporary arched door, and walked on both sides of the table with the big ear cups.
Ramos and Sun Wu, who were the first to enter the stadium with ball boys in hand, slowed down their steps as they looked ahead. There were Manchester United fans in the stands facing the players' tunnel, and a huge Tifo appeared there.
Wearing a red jersey, he half-turned around and looked back. The number 7 was displayed on the back of the waves.
There is a short slogan at the top of the giant Tifo, "BEST IS BEST."
This is the highest honor given to George Best by Manchester United fans decades ago. "Maradona is great, Pele is better, but Best is the best."
Ramos was a little jealous that Casillas had left the club this season and he had become the new captain, but he knew he would never have such a historic place at the club.
Sun Wu Gao waved there and the Manchester United fans spread their hands and chanted.
"We lifted the league trophy, we lifted the FA Cup!"
"Today we will be on top of Europe and win the Big Ear Cup!"
"We are the kings of the Premier League, the kings of England and the kings of Europe!"
Basically, the opening ceremony of all games is similar. Both teams walk out of the tunnel, including the coaching staff, shake hands and take photos with each other. Then the captains draw lots and stand in position to wait for the head coach to blow the whistle.
But today the pace seems a bit slow. Premier League fans are used to it. Fans in other regions are watching it. Even the live broadcast party specially gave the busy Sun Wu a long close-up.
Sun Wu was too busy. After leading the team to the field, he walked aside and shook hands with Real Madrid's coaching team one by one, hugged Zidane, and joked a few words that he hoped that today's game would not be too intense, otherwise Zidane's pants would not hold up. live……
Then he quickly ran into the field. Players from both sides were waiting for him. Sun Wu was the captain of Manchester United and needed to stand in the first position to shake hands with the Real Madrid players...
Real Madrid players quickly dispersed after taking a group photo, but head coach Sun Wu still wanted to explain a few details after the opening to his teammates.
After that, Sun Wu quickened his pace and ran to the center circle, exchanged team flags with Ramos, and shook hands with the referees one by one. The linesman, fourth referee, and bottom line referee were all waiting to shake hands with him before returning to their jobs.
There is no doubt that Sun Wu has become the focus of the Meazza Stadium before the game has even started.
"Look, Best is so busy." Mourinho, a guest on Sky Sports Live today, couldn't help laughing: "Fortunately, Best is a self-aware person..."
Mortensen: "Jose, why do you say that?"
"When Best was at Wolfsburg and Schalke 04, Magath was not only the head coach and director of the sports department, but also the CEO of the club." Mourinho joked: "Last year, Woodward chose Best. When I was in trouble, I must have been thinking, will I be kicked out one day?"
"Not to mention in Germany, even in the UK, there are fewer and fewer such football managers." Mortensen shrugged. "In fact, after Wenger left, there was only one football manager in the Premier League, Manchester United's Best."
"Okay, the head referee Felix Bruchy from Germany blew the whistle to start the game, and the 61st UEFA Champions League final officially kicked off!"
