Chapter 2232 Something happened to Manchester United, and Anpan made a scene in the final!
"Zhongyang TV station, Zhongyang TV station!"
“Welcome everyone to watch the 2017-2018 Champions League final between Manchester United and Sevilla on time!”
"I'm today's host, He Wei, and next to me is my partner Xu Yang!"
"Good evening, everybody!"
"The venue for tonight's final is the Olympic National Stadium of Dynamo Kyiv, Ukraine, which is..."
He Wei began to introduce some basic information as usual.
At this time, the Internet was in an uproar.
"Fuck, what does An Pang mean by starting? Ye Shen is playing in midfield?"
"God damn it, can Rashford play as a right winger? He doesn't have that ability, you know!"
"Although I admit that Grealish played well in the FA Cup final, can he play in such a crucial game?"
"Sevilla is also doing something interesting. They even let Mbappe start in the last game... Where's Ibrahimovic?"
"Although Ibrahimovic is old, he has scored more than 30 goals this season! He is getting stronger with age!"
"Damn it, both head coaches are messing around. I'm totally speechless!"
……
One hour before the game started, both sides officially announced their starting lineups.
Manchester United's starting lineup is very similar to what many experts predicted.
The goalkeeper is still De Gea.
Cancelo is the left back, Maguire and Pepe are the double center backs, and Valencia is the right back.
The three midfielders are Rice, Ye Chen and De Bruyne.
Left winger Grealish, forward Ronaldo, right winger Rashford.
When this first release appeared, many people thought they had seen it wrong!
What’s going on? Modric is injured, so why let Ye Chen go to the middle directly?
You don't really think Ye Chen can be an all-around midfielder in the middle, do you?
In fact, Modric and Kroos are the guiding midfielders in the ceremony's three midfielders, and when Manchester United has De Bruyne, Modric's offensive attributes are slightly weakened.
In addition to assisting the defensive midfielder in defense, he also has to deliver ammunition.
But now Ancelotti uses a player who has rarely played in midfield in this position——
Isn't this just nonsense?
To be honest, Ye Chen also thought it was nonsense at first.
But the points that I had worked so hard to accumulate finally paid off.
He bought the proficiency of the midfield directly.
Combined with his very comprehensive statistics, it is no exaggeration to call him a midfield master.
But outsiders don’t know this.
When everyone saw Manchester United's starting lineup, they were stunned!
Of course, Ye Chen can fully understand the fans.
After all, Manchester City in its previous life was in the Champions League final, where they lost 0-1 to Chelsea and missed out on their first Champions League.
It was not until the 22-23 season that they reached the final again, defeating Inter Milan 1-0 and achieving their second Premier League treble!
As for the first one, it is naturally their city rivals, Manchester United!
Here's the whole thing.
Sevilla is quite honest.
The goalkeeper is still Navas.
The left back is Robertson, the two central defenders are the experienced Dias and Rudiger, and the right back is Kimmich.
The three midfielders are Casemiro, Rodri and B Fee.
Left winger Mane, forward Mbappe, right winger Salah.
Players such as Ibrahimovic, Wu Lei and Pedri were on standby on the bench.
However, in the player tunnel, the brothers were having a gathering of old friends.
All the players came forward to greet Ye Chen.
"Brother Chen, are you really playing in midfield today?"
"Yes!" Ye Chen nodded.
“Isn’t it 442?”
"No, it's 433!" Ye Chen continued to answer.
"Then we won't be polite!"
"Brother Chen, promise me that no matter what the outcome is, it will not affect our relationship!"
"that is!"
"Me too!"
Looking at Kimmich, Rudiger, Salah and Mane in front of him.
Ye Chen raised his lips and said, "I hope you remember what you said. Don't get angry with me when the time comes!"
Ye Chen smiled, life and death are unpredictable!
Sevilla referee Mazic and his referee team also came to the scene.
Before the Champions League final, Manchester United, as the winner of the Champions League last year, needed to place the Champions League trophy in the middle area of the entrance.
The person sent by Manchester United to present the trophy today was the former Manchester United heartthrob, Beckham.
It has to be said that Beckham is a man that Ye Chen has to stay away from whenever he sees him.
It's normal to be handsome when you are young.
But Beckham has been handsome since he was young, which is a bit outrageous!
As the trophy was placed, the referee Ma Riqi led the players from both teams onto the court.
Suddenly, cheers rang out in the stadium.
Both teams have huge fan bases.
Some of them fell in love with Sevilla because of Ye Chen, and later on - there was no way to stop being a fan!
In fact, football fans are very strange.
Generally, once you like a team, you will always support it.
No matter whether the results are good or bad, I will not change my favorite home team.
At most, I just don't pay attention.
To be honest, an important match like the Champions League final is something you must watch even if you have to take a day off from work the next day!
The show ended with the theme song "Kick Barcelona, kick Bayern, kick Bayern Munich".
The captains of both teams also exchanged flags in the middle.
The captain of Manchester United is Ye Chen, while the captain of Sevilla is goalkeeper Navas.
Navas just hugged Ye Chen and said a lot of things.
No provocation, only comfort.
Of course, Ye Chen appeared in the midfield position today, so he was not too scared.
Compared with the long shot, Ye Chen in the penalty area is obviously more terrifying.
Manchester United drew the kick-off, while Sevilla chose the side.
By the time everything was ready, it was already 8:44 local time.
"5!"
"4!"
"3!"
"2!"
"1!"
"Beep!"
With the end of the countdown, the Champions League final officially begins!
"Just like the starting lineup everyone saw before the game, Ye Chen really appeared in the midfield position!"
"I don't know if Manchester United will make any adjustments in the future. Coach Zhang, do you think Ye Chen will return to the attacking line?"
Zhang Lu shook his head. "The biggest shortcoming of this Manchester United team is that there is no substitute for Modric. Rice can actually develop in that direction, but it takes time. Herrera is more of an engineer, so letting Ye Chen play in the midfield is a good idea! But the new problem is that Ye Chen is not in the front, who can help Manchester United score goals?"
"Although Ronaldo is very capable, like in the last game, when he is double-teamed, his role is very limited!"
Zhan Jun also nodded, “We saw Ye Chen take the ball and face his former teammate Casemiro directly!”
Ye Chen, who got the ball, accelerated and broke through to Fat Tiger's left side.
However, just as Fat Tiger was trying to catch up, he suddenly made a freehand V-shaped pull.
Immediately change the direction of breakthrough and break through to Casemiro's right side!
Casemiro could no longer control his body, and he quickly stretched out his legs to intercept, but he hit the outside of Ye Chen's thigh.
"Boom!"
Ye Chen fell to the ground.
"Beep!"
Mažic immediately blew the whistle and gave Manchester United a set piece.
Because the ball was far from the goal and it was not a malicious foul, no card was issued.
Of course, Casemiro reacted quickly as well. After stabilizing his body, he immediately reached out and pulled Ye Chen up.
Both sides are still very friendly.
He looked at the goal, which was more than 30 meters away, and then looked at De Bruyne.
At this time, De Bruyne was running towards this side happily!
