Chapter 493: Fuck Them with Me
Pellegrini did make concessions.
In the next group confrontation practice, Baptista put on the yellow vest, which symbolizes the main force.
Of course he was so excited that he wanted to go day by day, but Guti was a little gloomy. This is the Champions League final, which player wants to miss it?
But Licado didn't have time to take care of Guti's mood. He and Guti have always been in harmony with each other. This season, when Baptista, Guti and Gago competed for a starting list, he did not express his opinion.
But this time, he wanted to win too much.
He believes that with him, Kaka and Baptista, three players who were born in Sao Paulo, the team's possession and delivery will be much more stable. The tacit understanding between the three of them is very good.
The media has already started hyping this game, and the celebrities of the two teams-mainly Real Madrid's celebrities have also cheered for their home team.
However, the active players of the two teams have always maintained restraint and did not speak loudly when facing the media.
At the press conference before the game, the atmosphere was not bad. Pellegrini said: "Chelsea is a tenacious team with outstanding stars. They can get the runner-up in the highly competitive Premier League and are only two points away from the championship. Their strength is beyond doubt. , a lot of people underestimate them, but I won't make that mistake."
"Grant has proven that he is a good coach, Ballack, Lampard and others have also proved themselves as world-class players. From the beginning I thought they would be a strong contender for the Champions League title, and they did come. It's the final."
"The process of the game will be very difficult, but I believe we will win the final victory. It is the first time for Chelsea to enter the Champions League final. They have not experienced the atmosphere of this game, which is beneficial to us. We In the team, several players have the experience of winning the Champions League final, such as Ricardo and Raul, they can lead the team to victory."
"Chelsea's most dangerous player? I think it's Lampard. He's a fighter who never gives up. He's strong, he rarely gets injured, he runs aggressively. He has the ability to score goals from distance. He is the core of Chelsea's attack. , he is a leader player. And Drogba, he has excellent physical fitness, good skills at his feet, he is a huge threat to our defense."
Pellegrini's statement was quite polite, and Grant did not speak out. "Real Madrid is a traditional giants. They have won the Champions League and league titles many times more than us. We must pay respect to such a team."
"Real Madrid are in great shape, they've won the league two years in a row, they have some of the best attacking players in the world, and we're going to be under a lot of pressure defensively. We're indeed in the Champions League final for the first time, and I'm very clear. Such a game is unimaginable for us, but we will do our best. Manuel Pellegrini is an excellent coach, but like me, he has never led a team to a Champions League final before, so I think in the We are equal in this regard.”
"Of course I want my team to win, the lads have worked hard all season for this and I hope they get what they want. But I know it's going to be difficult. Real Madrid are a great rivalry and we'll fight hard in the game. We will do our best, no matter what the result is, we will have no regrets.”
"The most threatening player in Real Madrid? Of course it is Ricardo. It can only be Ricardo. For a player who is not yet 22 years old, he can win the Ballon d'Or and the World Player of the Year, which already represents the entire football world Appreciation for him. He is very complete, the best defenders can't freeze him easily, he just scored a hat-trick. Frankly, I have a series of tactics against him, but I don't know if it will work."
"There is also Kaka, if he was not born in the same era as Licado,
He should have won the Ballon d'Or by now. I think his talent is not inferior to Ricardo. To deal with him, we have to stay focused within 90 minutes. "
The head coaches of both sides have been so restrained, and the captains of the two sides attending the press conference will naturally not start a fight.
Raul said: "Chelsea is not an easy opponent, we take them very seriously and we have been training around this game for weeks. It will be difficult, but we are confident that we will win in the end. By my side There are a group of very good comrades in arms, and everyone is working hard for this goal."
Terry said: "It is the dream of every player to compete against a legendary team like Real Madrid on a stage like the Champions League final and compete for the club's highest honor. If we can win in the game, this dream It's even more perfect."
Such a warm pre-match press conference eased the tense atmosphere of the finals a lot.
On the evening of the 20th, the Luzhniki Stadium was packed early, and the policemen with submachine guns hidden in their leather jacket uniforms patrolled grimly.
England's football hooliganism is world-renowned, and the Moscow police were right to be on the lookout, at least in the run-up to the game, when nothing went wrong inside the stadium.
When the closing ceremony of the Champions League began on the green field, the final mobilization and deployment were going on in the locker rooms of both teams.
In the Real Madrid dressing room, the atmosphere is a little more relaxed. Many players have already had the experience of winning the Champions League once, and their attitude is still calm.
Although Pellegrini was nervous and excited, his ability to control his expression was not bad, and he didn't let his nervousness show.
He spoke loudly above, the players whispered below, and players with Champions League experience were imparting experience to their teammates.
In Chelsea's dressing room, the atmosphere is much more dignified. Grant was so nervous that he didn't know where to put it, and the players were not much better. This is the first time they have entered the Champions League final and when they are about to realize their dream, everything becomes unreal.
Compared to Real Madrid's dressing room, Chelsea's dressing room was very quiet. But this is not because they are more qualified, but because they are too nervous to talk!
Grant knew very well that such a state was unacceptable. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something to make the players relax. But his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he couldn't speak a word.
In the end Captain Terry stood up and made a short speech. "... I said in the press conference that playing against Real Madrid in the Champions League final is every player's dream. I didn't say what I really mean. My heart is that in the Champions League final Beating Real Madrid is every player's dream! They are strong, but we are stronger! Come with me, boys, and beat them, okay!"
The Chelsea players suddenly promised: "Okay!"
