Before the game, the Russian Meteorological Service analyzed that it would rain at the Luzhniki Stadium on the night of the Champions League final. This should be more beneficial to Liverpool. Manchester United has better technology and walks on the ground. If it rains, the venue
will have a great impact on them.
However, by this time, the sky at the Luzhniki Stadium was still cloudless, and there was no rain at all. This made the Manchester United fans breathe a sigh of relief, as long as it didn't rain. Of course, the Liverpool fans seemed a little bit
Pity.
"Dear viewers in front of the TV, welcome to watch the broadcast of the 2007-2008 UEFA Champions League final brought to you by ESPN. The final was held at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, and the opponents were both from England.
Manchester United and Liverpool in the Premier League, so everyone calls this Champions League final a civil war in the Premier League!" ESPN, which has the rights to broadcast the Champions League, attaches great importance to this Champions League final and sent a huge camera crew to Luxembourg.
Broadcast at the Ziniki Stadium.
"This is the last time in the history of the Champions League final that the "All England Open" has been staged, and it is also the first time that the Luzhniki Stadium has hosted the Champions League final. In this season's Premier League, the Red Devils Manchester United lost to Liverpool and finished second. And in the competition between the two teams
In a direct confrontation, Liverpool also has an absolute advantage." ESPN's commentator said excitedly.
"As for the Luzhniki Stadium, this is a neutral stadium for both sides, and they will receive the same treatment here. The fans here should support the beautiful football side." The ESPN commentator said.
At this time, the TV broadcast camera came to the fan stands, and the Luzhniki Stadium was already filled to the brim with fans. Fans of Manchester United and Liverpool were clearly divided into two camps. Although UEFA only divided the total between the two clubs.
There are less than 30,000 tickets, but judging from the environment at the scene, the number of fans of the two teams who actually entered the stadium is obviously more than this number. Maybe there are many fanatical fans of the clubs who bought the tickets themselves!
But overall, there are still slightly more fans of the Red Devils and Manchester United, which also shows the influence of the Red Devils and Manchester United in the world.
Of course, there are a lot of Liverpool fans. And among these fans there are also some Chinese fans with black hair and yellow skin. These Chinese fans are members of the Liverpool Fans Club of a middle school in Dujiangyan. There are only fifteen people here this time.
There were originally about forty people in their Red Army fan club, but now only these fifteen people can come. The others have been buried in the land where they were born and raised, and will never come out again.
The fifteen Chinese teenagers who came to the scene had obviously never seen such a big scene.
The Luzhiki Stadium can accommodate more than 80,000 fans. There may be similarly large stadiums in China, but the uniform equipment and slogans of European fans made these fifteen Chinese teenagers feel the kind of feeling that they usually only see on TV.
The screen can only be seen on the screen.
Being in a stadium with such people for the first time, these fifteen Chinese teenagers felt very excited and excited. At this time, they rarely broke free from the emotions of fear, fear and worry, and their faces were filled with happiness.
smile.
There were even a few little guys singing the Liverpool team song "You'll Never Walk Alone" along with the Liverpool fans. This was the first time they watched their beloved Liverpool match so close.
"Little guys, these are us Liverpool fans! The battle is even bigger at Anfield. Don't be nervous, enjoy it!!!" A brown-eyed Englishman sat next to fifteen teenagers.
He spoke to them in blunt Chinese.
This person is Mac Jones, a Red Devils fan who can speak Chinese and was specially selected by the Liverpool Club from among the fan representatives, and asked him to accompany these fifteen Chinese teenagers to watch the game. His reward was a front-row seat ticket!
In fact, every year, Liverpool Club organizes small fans from other places and even foreign countries to watch Liverpool games on site. These are accompanied by Liverpool fans, and Liverpool fans are already very familiar with this. Moreover, these Liverpool fans will also learn from the club.
Get some benefits.
Mike Jones has received such children many times. But this time is the most special because he has learned everything about these children. Mike Jones is very sympathetic to this group of Chinese teenagers who have had unfortunate experiences.
The group of Chinese teenagers took great care of me.
Listening to Mike Jones's words, this group of teenagers from the disaster-stricken areas in China immediately became energetic, stood up collectively, waved the Liverpool team scarves in their hands, and shouted crazily: "You will never walk alone!"
You can’t walk alone!”
Sitting next to these dozen Chinese teenagers, Mike Jones was very pleased to see the excitement and happiness of these dozen Chinese teenagers. At the same time, he silently sent a sincere blessing to the people in the Sichuan disaster area:
"You will never walk alone!"

In the Manchester United dressing room.
Manchester United's head coach Alex Ferguson is standing in front of the team's tactical board.
The tactical board behind Alex Ferguson is already full of content. It seems that Alex Ferguson has made sufficient preparations.
As soon as the Manchester United players came back, Alex Ferguson motioned for the Manchester United players to sit down, and then he began to announce Manchester United's starting lineup for this game. The face of the guy whose name was called was solemn.
The guy whose name was not called will inevitably have some disappointment on his face.
This is the Champions League final, and some guys will never be able to do this once in their lives. Of course they will be disappointed if they do not appear in the starting lineup of Pisa.
After announcing today's Manchester United starting lineup, Alex Ferguson began to lay out today's tactics. Alex Ferguson looked up at the Manchester United players and said: "Today's game is only for us.
One result is victory!"
Upon hearing this, the guys from the Manchester United team immediately became excited and nodded firmly, shouting loudly, victory, victory, victory.
"I think everyone is very familiar with Liverpool. We have played against them twice this season. Their strength is the transition between offense and defense in the midfield, with Xabi Alonso, Gerrard and Chris.
Any one of the three, placed alone in any team, can become the brains of the team. They can all become the hub of Liverpool's offensive and defensive transitions, which is hard to guard against. Today, we can defeat Liverpool and keep an eye on these three.
People are the key." Alex Ferguson pointed at the tactical board and said.
"After losing the ball, we must counterattack on the spot. We cannot give them the opportunity to quickly release the ball and quickly switch offense and defense! This is our top priority today, and we must do this well. No matter who loses the ball,
Then we must fight back on the spot.”
"During the counter-attack, other players should not stand still. They should press forward as a whole and use their local numerical advantage to cut off the football. Players who are far away from this area should immediately stand in front of the Liverpool players who are walled in the ball.
On the line, cut him off from the rest of the Liverpool players."
"We have already focused on this in our usual training. I believe you can do it, right?" Alex Ferguson emphasized and asked.
"Of course, Jazz, don't worry!" the Manchester United players immediately roared majestically, like a group of soldiers who were about to go to the battlefield and were being reviewed.
"Okay! Very good! I also believe you can do it!" Seeing the momentum displayed by the Manchester United players, Alex Ferguson nodded, very satisfied.
◆◆◆◆◆◆
In the Liverpool dressing room, Rafael Benitez is also making final arrangements.
"Everyone is very familiar with Manchester United. In the two rounds of matches this season, we have a very big advantage. However, this must not be a reason to underestimate our opponents."
"Think about who did it that our Liverpool team has fallen to this point? Think about who pushed us out of our glorious past? Think again, Alex Ferguson is just getting older.
Did he take our Liverpool side seriously with the great words he made at Trafford Stadium?"
"Now it's time for us to show that damn guy our strength! No one can slander us at Liverpool, and we can be pushed aside by anyone!"
"In this game, we have only one goal - to win the Champions League!"
"I don't want what happened last year to happen to us again. We are not the second in a thousand years! We are the champions! We are the kings!"
"Fighters, show your courage and your fighting spirit! Honor lies ahead! Fight for honor! Fight until the last moment! You must remember - you will never walk alone!"
"Gentlemen, it's time to make history! Some of you here may have already won the Big Ear Cup. However, you are now a member of the great Red Army. We have won the Champions League trophy five times.
It is the team in England that has won the most Champions League titles. However, we are not the club that has won the most Champions League titles in Europe. Real Madrid is our goal to catch up!"
"By winning Manchester United and winning the final championship, we will create an era for Liverpool, become Liverpool's heroes, and carve our names into the history of the European Champions Cup and Liverpool Club!"
"Gentlemen, it's time to make great achievements! We have already snatched the league championship trophy from Manchester United, why can't we snatch the Champions League championship from them again?" After saying something, Raphael Bay
Niites also did not forget to "interact" with the players.
"Must!" the players shouted in unison.
"Very good, then go beat them! Kill Manchester United again! After tonight, our title will be the European Champions!!!" Rafael Benitez shouted ambitiously, very much like that man
Adolf Hitler, the German dwarf during World War II.
"European champion!"
"European champion!"
"European champion!"
The entire Chelsea dressing room was filled with the voices of players shouting "European Champions", just like soldiers lining up before going out for the war. Qiu Ze stood in the crowd of Liverpool players and felt his blood boiling. He wanted to rush out and fight Manchester United immediately.
in the end.
◆◆◆◆◆◆
At this time, members of the referee team came outside the locker room and reminded the Liverpool players to come out quickly because time was really running out. They told them to come out quickly. This game has entered the final countdown and they must hurry up.
The Liverpool players just came out of the locker room. Qiu Ze was the second to last one. When he came out, he found that the Manchester United players had already come out early and stood in the tunnel.
There was a queue, waiting for the final appearance.
After being reminded by the assistant referee of this match, the Liverpool players walked over and stood in a row next to the Red Devils and Manchester United, waiting for the final appearance.
During this period of time, none of the Manchester United players turned their heads to look at the Liverpool players. Their eyes were fixed firmly in front of them, as if they did not take the Liverpool players seriously. This made the Liverpool players
They are very angry, a group of subordinates have been defeated, what is the air of them?
Qiu Ze happened to be standing next to Cristiano Ronaldo. The two turned to look at their opponent, with sparks dancing in their eyes.
The atmosphere of an imminent war instantly became intense! The raging momentum was like a burning flame!
