spn The Stadio Olimpico is now the home stadium of Serie A teams Roma and Lazio. It can be said that Roma and Lazio are the owners of the Stadio Olimpico.
This stadium was built in the 1930s with the original purpose of hosting the Olympic Games. After decades of reconstruction and expansion, the Olympic Stadium can now accommodate 82,000 people.
The Olympic Stadium located in the northern suburbs of Rome was jointly designed by architects E. Del-Debio, Rocatelli and Vitellozzi.
After continuous reconstruction, the Olympic stadium is now very modern, fully considering the needs and convenience of athletes and spectators, with complete functional design and full of humanization, and the architectural style is also very novel.
As one of the landmark buildings in Rome, the Stadio Olimpico is also one of the most famous stadiums in the world.[
Roma has shared the Stadio Olimpico with Lazio since 1973, and in 1977 the most important Roma fan group, the South Stand Fan Club, was formed.
Roma fans stated that Lazio fans were not welcome to watch the game in the south stand and kindly suggested that they go to other areas of the stadium.
In 1973, during a derby match between Roma and Lazio, groups of Roma fans checked all entrances to the South Stand to prevent Lazio fans from entering there.
From that year on, Lazio fans had to occupy the northern stands, which has since become a gathering place for Lazio fans.
Since the Olympic Stadium is not a professional football stadium, there is a running track between the auditorium and the field.
This also makes many Manchester United fans and Barcelona fans feel very uncomfortable. In addition, the security issues at the stadium have also attracted sufficient attention from the Italian police. The reputation of English fans is indeed not very good in European countries, and Catalonia
The Asians don’t seem to have a good temper. After one side loses, there will be riots because of losing control of emotions. This is not something that anyone can guarantee. Therefore, in today’s Champions League final, the police in Rome, Italy, were almost in full force
We were dispatched to conduct patrols inside and near the stadium, as well as in places where fans from both teams gathered together.
It is reported that more than 10,000 police officers will be deployed today to maintain order at the stadium and in the city to prevent fans from causing trouble.
At the same time, 6,500 cameras are installed in the stadium and every corner of Rome, which will also monitor various places in real time to respond to emergencies at any time.
When the Manchester United team bus arrived at the Olympic Stadium, the sky was clear and the weather was surprisingly good. May-June is officially the local tourist season, and many Asian faces appeared around the stadium, cheering for the Manchester United players!
When Li Yugang got off the bus, he heard cheers in Mandarin for the first time in an away game. This feeling was really wonderful. Of course, there were also many Koreans, because they are neighboring countries, and Asian fans formed a team composed of fans from two countries.
A special group of Manchester United fans.
The Olympic Stadium, which can accommodate 82,000 people, currently has about 41,000 Manchester United fans, while Barcelona fans have about 37,000.
In the stands of the stadium, you can clearly see that half of the stands are the red of Manchester United, which looks like burning flames, while the other half is the red and blue colors of Barcelona.
However, in the middle of the stands for Manchester United fans, there is a small area that is special, that is, the special Asian cheering group and the phalanx of fans composed of international students from both countries.
Although this game is between England's Manchester United and Spain's Barcelona, what makes these Chinese living abroad happy is that it is Li Yu, a Chinese star, who may decide the fate of the game.
Fans who can easily spend a lot of money to get tickets for the final are of course looking forward to this moment coming as soon as possible.
You must know that tickets for the current finals are very expensive. The most common ticket costs hundreds of dollars. This is not a ticket that has been passed down by scalpers. If there are scalpers in it, a Champions League ticket
The tickets in China can completely equal the income of ordinary workers for a year. This is not a small amount of money, but it cannot stop the enthusiasm of local Chinese and compatriots.
The CCTV reporting team also did their homework in advance. There were tour groups in Yanjing and Hong Kong that organized special viewing groups for this Champions League final.
This is simply impossible in China!
Li Yu and his teammates put on special jerseys with the Champions League final logo on them and came out to warm up.
When they came out, they saw the Barcelona players already warming up.[
Seeing the Manchester United players coming out, the Manchester United fans in the stands began to sing loudly, and the Barcelona fans were not to be outdone and began to sing the Barcelona antiphon loudly.
However, when it comes to singing on the field, Barcelona fans are no match for England fans. When it comes to creating a stadium atmosphere, England fans are well-deserved masters. Their voices are powerful weapons. They can create just the atmosphere with their voices.
Singing this song that scares the opponent
One point is that it is a tradition of English football and something that English fans are proud of. In fact, no matter when, the chorus of tens of thousands of fans is always the most exciting voice in the world. And tens of thousands of fans sing in unison, specially composed for a certain player.
The song will make that player inexplicably excited.
Manchester United fans can sing every Manchester United player without repeating the same song. These people even have the ability to compose lyrics on the spot, and then use a popular song tune to sing to their own players, while Barcelona fans sing it over and over again.
Barcelona's team anthem has fallen behind in terms of style and momentum.
In this regard, Spanish fans and English fans are still incomparable. Of course, there is no way to compare after the game. English fans appear to be so energetic at all times. This may be a national characteristic.
Li Yu had just come out to warm up, ran two steps, and her body was just a little warm. Listening to the Manchester United fans singing songs compiled for them, thinking that this was another Champions League final, it can be said that the fans' singing was far better than just running.
Those few moves were exciting. The warm-up had just begun before the game, and Manchester United's No. 9 was already excited.
While the players were warming up on the sidelines, Ferguson and Guardiola were not idle either. Both coaches inspected the softness and hardness of the turf on the court.
All coaches are aware of the terrible situation in Italian stadiums. This is because for the Champions League final, the Rome city government has allocated funds to maintain the turf.
However, before the game, the grass was sprinkled with water and it was a bit slippery!
For Barcelona, it is indeed not ideal. Barcelona is a representative of artistic football. They are used to controlling the football at their feet. Ninety percent of the time, the football is rolling on the ground with Messi, Eto'o, Iniesta, Ha
Wei... These people are all representatives of technical football. Barcelona's football is more about precise ball control, dribbling and passing, and smooth offense. These will be affected by the relatively slippery field.
Guardiola looked up and turned around to look at Ferguson. He could not clearly see the expression of the Manchester United coach. However, Guardiola could imagine that Ferguson would be a little gloating about playing in a slippery field. No matter how the Premier League team was affected,
It's relatively small. Manchester United's efficient counterattacks often start with long passes to the sides. If it's really not possible, they can't make a punch. This is a reserved program of the Premier League.
In fact, Ferguson's mood cannot be said to be good. He does not think that the players on his team do not have superb skills, so the old Scottish man does not like today's competition venue. This Manchester United team is definitely technical because of Li Yu and Ronaldo.
In terms of style, such a slippery venue will also have an impact on Manchester United.
The warm-up ended quickly, and the players returned to the dressing room one after another. Manchester United club staff hurriedly distributed dry towels to the players so that the players could maintain body heat, otherwise the previous warm-up would be useless.
Li Yu took the towel, wiped the sweat from his hair randomly, and then picked up the dry jersey hanging on the cabinet in the locker room. Li Yu was not in a hurry to change into it. He put the jersey underwear on the stool and picked up the jersey at hand.
A sentence was written in black ink pen. This is a mysterious gift specially prepared for the Chinese fans watching the finals around the world!
"What's written on it, Lee?" Giggs stretched his head to look at it, but he didn't recognize the Chinese characters on it.
"Haha, this is a message for the fans of my motherland!" Li Yu pretended to smile mysteriously, but he did not explain the literal meaning.
"Are you going to lift your shirt after scoring a goal?" Giggs asked.
Li Yu nodded: "I hope the Chinese fans in front of the TV and on the scene can be proud of football. This is an extremely rare opportunity for Chinese fans."
Giggs nodded and expressed his understanding. The Welsh veteran is a very good person. He also knows what kind of football level Li Yu's country is. In fact, most of the Manchester United players and Chinese players can only name three.
Name,lee…ong…sun!
This is the reason why Dong Fangzhuo once played for Manchester United, otherwise there would be one less player!
Dong Fangzhuo did not leave a deep impression on people during his time at Manchester United. He spent most of his time on loan. Even when he returned to Manchester United, he played in the reserve team. Fortunately, it was Manchester United. If players from other Premier League teams,
That is to say, I know the names of two Chinese players.
Li Yu knew in his heart that changing all this would not happen overnight. Coupled with the conflicts between himself and the domestic football association, he could do something that would make the Chinese people proud and do his part. The problem of the general environment was not his.
A player can transform.
At the same time, he secretly decided that he must work hard and score the first goal, so that it would be more meaningful.[
After listening to Giggs, the captain of this game, his teammates noticed Li Yu's actions. Ronaldo and Park Ji-sung also started to join in the fun. When Li Yu finished writing, they also started to write what they wanted to say.
Park Ji-sung, who has always been honest, also took off his clothes to celebrate. This stimulated the other players. Regardless of whether they scored or not, there was no harm in writing it down, just in case they scored!
"You are affecting my mood in the game, you know?" Van der Sar finally spoke up. Everyone has the possibility of scoring, but he, the goalkeeper, can he not be depressed?
I asked you to write. After a while, the boss saw it and insisted on criticizing you. Isn't this looking for a yellow card?
The old Dutch goalkeeper can only find comfort for himself with these inner words.
"Boys, I'm very happy to see your actions. Winning the championship in this game is the best blessing to all the Manchester United fans who love you deeply. Don't let them live up to their expectations!" Ferguson
The sudden noise made all the players startled.
What the old man said seemed to be praising their actions, but there was something behind his words. The old Scottish man, who was always straightforward, was a little unusual today. He started to speak sarcastically?
If you are too slow, you will not dare to write anymore. You should listen to the old man's tactics honestly. It's like what the old man said. If you fail to live up to the expectations of the fans, then it will be a big deal!
In fact, the tactics of the game have been discussed many times, and the Manchester United players have all memorized them. However, Ferguson still reminded them again about some details that need to be paid attention to in the game.
Barcelona's counterattack is very fast and very active. If Manchester United wants to organize some attacks, it must be fast and accurate. Therefore, he requires the players to be more careful when handling the ball on the field to guard against the opponent's counterattack.
A quick counterattack after coming down.
The CCTV Sports Special Report Team was still tracking and reporting on Manchester United. Duan Xuan did his best to change from a reporter to a live broadcast commentator. His voice rang out as the game time approached. In this Champions League final, CCTV Sports was extremely
Attention must be paid to live broadcasting. In Huaxia's studio, the live broadcast has actually started more than two hours in advance.
While the Premier League cannot be broadcast live, CCTV will not let go of the Champions League final. During the pre-match live broadcast, a large number of interactive games were organized for fans to guess the scores and final results, and there were generous sports equipment as gifts.
CCTV is also trying to turn today's final into a football feast, allowing Chinese fans to experience the feeling of their hearts throbbing with football again.
"In the past few days, I have been following the Manchester United team and reporting on it, and I have been fortunate enough to experience several great moments of winning the championship. Today will definitely be no exception. Let us witness the arrival of this great moment together!" Duan
As soon as Xuan opened his mouth, he started talking passionately.
"The game is about to start. We noticed that before the game, the head coaches of both teams were walking back and forth in the field for a long time. The field looked a little slippery today. The two head coaches are very careful. They will definitely be careful before the game.
Make arrangements accordingly for this situation!”
"The Stadio Olimpico in Rome is not a professional football venue, which makes me somewhat uncomfortable. I am used to watching professional football matches in the UK. This reminds me of the situation of domestic league broadcasts. Most of the domestic stadiums are
Comprehensive stadiums, just from the number of professional football fields, we can intuitively see the gap, okay, let’s not talk about those emotions.”
At this time, the big screen in the stadium showed the starting lineups of both sides for this Champions League final.
Manchester United (4-3-3): Goalkeeper: Van der Sar; Defence: O'Shea, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra; Midfielder: Carrick, Giggs, Park Ji-sung; Striker: Cristiano Ronaldo
Just as the commentators began to introduce the starting lineups of Manchester United and Barcelona, players from both sides entered the field.
It is not difficult to see from the list that Barcelona has made great adjustments in the defense line. Captain Puyol switched to full-back, while Yaya Toure and Pique partnered as central defender. Guardiola said before the game
The difficulties in the defense were really reflected in the starting lineup of the final. There are hidden dangers in Barcelona's defense. It depends on whether Manchester United can seize the opportunity.
On the other hand, Manchester United almost always plays with the main force. The front trident will definitely encounter many opportunities when facing Barcelona's improvised defense line. If you seize such an opportunity, maybe the game will completely fall to Manchester United.
On this side, Ferguson sent veteran Giggs in the midfield. Can the Welsh veteran, who has not appeared in Manchester United's starting lineup for a long time, resist the impact of Barcelona's midfield?
Park Ji-sung also appeared in the midfield position. The task of the Koreans today is undoubtedly to keep an eye on Barcelona's offensive arrow Messi. If they can successfully defend the media in the finals, then the Korean international's career will undoubtedly reach another peak.
Barcelona is strong in the midfield and forward, while Manchester United is strong in the forward and back lines. Both teams have their own strengths and weaknesses, and the key is who of the two sides can seize the opportunity first and score goals to disrupt the opponent's pre-match plans.
This became the key to the game.
Players from both teams came out one after another, which brought the first climax of the evening to the Rome Olympic Stadium. Everyone shouted the names of the teams and players they supported, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely lively.
Li Yu noticed that Barcelona fans were extremely fond of a short player. This was also the first time the two met in a game. Messi is the top scorer and No. 10 offensive core of the Barcelona team.
I have heard this person's name from Ronaldo more than once, but this time is the real meeting. From the Portuguese's words, Li Yu can feel that Ronaldo has a desire to compete with Messi.
If Ronaldo can be regarded as a rival of the same level, then Messi is undoubtedly a football master.
Li Yu looked at the player with the number 10 on his jersey. He will also be his opponent in this game. It is such an enjoyable thing to be able to compete with heavyweight opponents in the most important game.
