Chapter 333 Atypical Finals

During the last locker room break before the game, Klopp told his players the latest situation: "Casillas may make mistakes when saving the ball, so you should pass more high balls to their goal..."

The players did not object to the arrangements of head coach Klopp. The advantage of this team is its tactical flexibility.

Next, Klopp looked at his players, took a deep breath, calmed down, and said: "In a few minutes, we will usher in a battle that determines our destiny. After the reform from the Champions League, no team has been able to successfully defend the title. I believe everyone knows this. But to be honest, I don't think this is a "curse". I don't believe this. Even if it is a "curse", we are fully capable of breaking this "curse"! Because this season, we have broken too many "impossibility". When we were lagging behind Bayern Munich in the league, how many people thought we could still win the league championship? When qualifying for the Champions League group stage was in danger, how many people could think that we could reach the finals all the way?"

Klopp's words made many players think of everything they have experienced this season.

Indeed, it is not easy for them to reach the Champions League final.

This season, Dortmund has many objective and subjective reasons to give up, but if they really give up, they will definitely not be able to stand on the stage of the Champions League final today.

The hardships I have experienced along the way are vivid and vivid, which makes people admire themselves when they think of them.

"... All the difficulties we have experienced in the past have become our courage and strength. Let us stand in the Champions League final and face strong enemies. This is the last game of the season, and we can make history just one game away. I firmly believe that you can do it, and I am honored to be able to fight side by side with you."

Players on both sides walked out of the locker room and came to the player's passage to wait in line.

They looked straight and did not say hello to their opponents, although there were some teammates from the same national team here.

But now is not the time to reminisce.

Outside the channel, live broadcast is playing the first list of both sides.

Every name called out will have a huge cheer.

This is a neutral stadium. The number of fans on both sides is similar, but if you listen carefully, you can still hear that the cheers of Dortmund fans have a little bit of the upper hand.

In terms of fanaticism, Real Madrid fans cannot be compared with Dortmund fans.

After reporting the roster, Champions League final ambassador Louis Figo entered the Champions League trophy.

At the same time, the broadcast footage also gave a group of old people in the stands. Marcel Leif introduced to the TV audience: "...This is a former Celtic player. They were invited to watch the finals live. They were members of the Champions League final in 1967. At that time, the Celtics defeated Inter Milan in Lisbon and became the first British team to win the championship..."

After Figo placed the Champions League trophy in the cup seat, he waved to greet the fans in the stands and left.

Then the Champions League theme song rang on the spot.

The referee team at the front led players from both sides to walk out of the stadium in music.

"They are out!" He Ping, who was commenting on the game on the spot, turned his head and saw the players walking out. He shouted excitedly.

The TV broadcast also placed the footage on the main players on both sides.

Of course, Cristiano Ronaldo, Bale and others are there in Real Madrid. The focus of everyone's attention on Dortmund is Zhou Yi.

If there is any player of Dortmund of similar levels as Real Madrid's superstars, then Zhou Yi should be the one recognized by everyone.

Next comes Reus, Mark, and Aubameyang.

Yan Min also has close-up shots. This season was his first European season, but he gave the world an amazing performance. He was just a substitute and rotation player at the beginning, but in the second half of the season, he has become the main player of the team and performed very well.

"Zhou Yi, Yan Min, for the first time, there were two Chinese players on the stage of the Champions League final!" He Ping seemed very excited. "This is a small step for them, but I hope this is a big step for Chinese football! Now the attendance rate of China's domestic leagues has been rising steadily, and the quality of the game has also improved greatly compared to before. But I also hope that many excellent players can go to the European League to further improve after they have experienced the Super League. Let's take a look at Yan Min. He is just an ordinary young player with some talent in the Super League, but after going to Europe, he has made such a big improvement..."

He Ping is really a super qualified Chinese football fan. No matter what the situation is, he will think about the future and development of Chinese football.

After the players from both sides came on the court, they lined up, shook hands, and picked the sides.

After this series of programs was completed, the competition finally began.

Dortmund won the right to pick the side, while Real Madrid won the kick-off.

Although the game kicked off at 7:45 pm, since Portugal is at the westernmost end of the European continent, the sun is still hanging in the western sky at 7:45 local time in Europe.

This is very similar to China. Even if it is eight o'clock in Beijing time, it is still bright in Sichuan and the sun has not set in Xinjiang.

So it is rare that the Champions League final was held when there was sunshine.

Dutch coach Quipes blew the whistle to the start of the game.

"...The game has begun! Audiences, audiences! Welcome to the 2013-2014 European Champions League final! Against both sides are Dortmund and Real Madrid! Both teams are wearing traditional jerseys, Dortmund is wearing yellow and black jerseys, and Real Madrid is wearing white jerseys. The game is kicked off by Real Madrid..."

After the kickoff, Real Madrid launched an attack on Dortmund's goal.

The two teams are actually very familiar with each other. After all, they have just fought four times last season, and they are simply aesthetically exhausted...

So there are not so many tests, just start working.

Real Madrid got a shot in the second minute of the game.

Their striker Cristiano Ronaldo forced a long shot outside the penalty area, and the ball naturally hit high...

The ball rights change hands.

Dortmund also took advantage of this opportunity to take possession and attacked Real Madrid's goal.

And he successfully passed the midfield and hit the front of Real Madrid's penalty area.

Zhou Yi encountered Khedira's obstacle here and it was difficult for him to move forward, so he divided the football on the side.

Give it to Yan Min.

Yan Min dribbled the ball and went down to the bottom.

Real Madrid's right-back Carvajal followed him without any chance to get down.

Yan Min was about to reach the bottom line, and suddenly there was a sudden brake, then turned around and passed the ball to the front of the goal with his right foot.

In front of the goal, Mark was smart and ran away. Before grabbing Ramos at the front point, he rubbed the football backward towards the goal!

Ramos was unable to stop the ball, and goalkeeper Casillas did not stop it, but the football did not fly into the goal, but slipped out...

"Oh! No one follows behind, otherwise the ball will fly into Real Madrid goal without any suspense!"

There have always been rumors that He Ping is a Real Madrid fan, but judging from this commentary, He Ping obviously did not stand on Real Madrid's side...

"Mark - Sliding by! Dortmund created the first threat in this game! They almost broke through Real Madrid's goal just three minutes into the game!" Marcel Leif held his head in both hands.

Just three minutes into the game, there was a nearly goal on the court, which seemed to indicate that this final was somewhat atypical...

※※※

Dortmund almost broke through Real Madrid's goal, which naturally scared Real Madrid's fans and also stimulated Real Madrid's players.

Next, Real Madrid launched another attack. They passed the ball directly in the backcourt and found Cristiano Ronaldo in the frontcourt. The Portuguese jumped high and used their heads to ferry the football to Benzema.

Benzema then moved the football to the right side, Bale rushed forward at high speed, and after receiving Benzema's ball, he waded the football ten meters away, and then strode to catch up with the shooting. After catching up with the football, he was almost approaching the 30-meter area of ​​Dortmund.

"Real Madrid's rapid attack! BBC's tacit cooperation!" the Spanish commentator shouted excitedly. "This is Real Madrid's opportunity!"

Bale faced Hummels who came up to defend him, gently pushed the football to the outside line, then overtaken by speed, and then passed the football to the goal.

Benzema attracted another Dortmund central defender Papastasopoulos in the middle, but the football flew over their heads and headed straight to the back point!

There, Cristiano Ronaldo, who was sprinting, jumped high!

"Ronaldo - header!!"

He rushed to the top and pushed the ball towards the back corner!

Weidenfeller, who ran back, jumped up, leaned back, stretched his arms, and barely fiddled with the football that Cristiano Ronaldo had pushed.

The football bounced upwards and flew out of the bottom line against the upper edge of the beam!

"Oh!!" the Spanish narrator screamed regretfully.

"Weedenfeller! He made a wonderful save!" Marcel Lef exclaimed. "He saved Dortmund's goal and did not allow Real Madrid to take the lead in the first four minutes!"

A header that opened three minutes into the game was sliding out, and a header that opened four minutes into the game was saved...

Just four minutes into the opening game, both sides created a murderous intent.

This final looks completely different from those typical finals that are cautious and cautious after the opening, and do not intend to make progress but only seek not to make mistakes.

It really surprised everyone who watched this final.
Chapter completed!
