Chapter 696 Rome Olympic Stadium
Bruce, I didn't expect us to meet in this way. The hotel where Leeds United and Barcelona are staying is not far away, and as the head coaches of the two teams, the two also need to cooperate with UEFA to participate in some arranged activities.
I've thought about it since I wanted to be the head coach, and I knew after you left Leeds United that we will have this day, and it will be very soon. After listening to Li Yi's words, Guardiola couldn't help showing a hint of surprise on his face. color.
However, Li Yi's next words made Guardiola feel a little resentful: I believe in my vision, you will become an excellent coach, so good that you can bring me a huge threat.
Guardiola really doesn't mind the nominal mentoring relationship with Li Yi? You know, Li Yi is so much younger than him after all. Although Li Yi's honor has been looked up to by many coaches, Guardiola is a very proud person.
Perhaps, Guardiola didn't mind before, but at this moment, hearing Li Yi's tone of voice again, Guardiola's heart is inevitably a little dissatisfied and unconvinced, because he is only a head coach now, and he is still a head coach. An excellent coach.
He entered Barcelona in the second half of last season, and immediately led Barcelona to overtake Real Madrid to win the league championship. This season, he left Real Madrid directly and far, and won two championships.
Of course, what Guardiola expressed on the surface, but in his heart, Guardiola was secretly ruthless. If he wants to win, only if he wins can he truly be treated equally with Li Yi, otherwise he may never be able to get rid of Li Yi.
After finishing the activities arranged by UEFA, Li Yi and Guardiola took the players to Rome Olympic Stadium to adapt and prepare for tonight's game.
Of course, before the start of the game, both sides still need to attend the pre-match media meeting. Although the media has been provoking, Li Yi and Guardiola are both old fritters and naturally impossible to place orders.
Besides, with the relationship between the two, it will not tear his face. Although Guardiola is unwilling and dissatisfied, he will not show it in front of the media.
As for Li Yi, he never makes the media comfortable. After all these years, the whole of Europe has learned what kind of person Li Yi is.
In the end, this pre-match interview can be described as calm, even if the players present were just expressing their confidence in the game and their desire for the championship.
The Olympic Stadium in Rome is a stadium that can accommodate 100,000 people and is also the home of two Roman teams, but in recent years, the games of these two teams have not attracted so many people, or it is the entire Serie A. status quo.
At present, the attendance rate of Serie A has been declining year by year, and so has the competition and influence of the league. This can be seen from the early annihilation of Serie A this season.
But today, the stadium of 100,000 people is full of seats and even in short supply. In addition to the fans of Leeds United and Barcelona, there are many neutral fans.
There was a lot of people in the stands, and now the players have returned to the locker room. The locker room is the most mysterious place for outsiders, so the sound insulation effect is very good. .
Guys, don't be so nervous. In fact, it's the same thing if you won the Champions League too much. For example, if you've won the Champions League twice, you won't feel anything after winning it twice, Li Yi said.
Actually, I also took it twice, Beckham said immediately.
I took it twice too Pavin shrugged and followed.
Pavin was transferred to the first team in the 01-02 season, that is, in that season, Real Madrid won the ninth Champions League trophy.
I don't have that many, I've only won it once, but I believe that I will have two after today. Owen was originally more tragic, but the appearance of Li Yi changed his career honor.
With the opening of these people, the Leeds United players couldn't help laughing, and the original nervousness was replaced by envy and desire, envious of their teammates' Champions League status, and eager to become a member of the Champions League.
So, don't be nervous, let alone we know our opponents so well. Guardiola's set in Barcelona is actually similar to that in Leeds United, but Barcelona understands it better, and Guardiola's tactics are more thorough.
Of course, Li Yi knows Guardiola, but Guardiola also knows Li Yi. After all, Guardiola used to be a player under Li Yi's account, and even had a relationship with Li Yi and this teacher and apprentice. The two sides have a lot of similarities in their current lineup tactics.
Leeds United squad: 433
Goalkeeper: Adler
Defenders: Baines, Pavin, Kompany, Sabaleta
Midfielders: Beckham, Modric, Matic
Forwards: Bale, Owen, Mata
Barcelona lineup: 433
Goalkeeper: Valdes
Defenders: Sylvinho, Pique, Yaya Toure, Puyol
Midfielders: Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets
Forwards: Henry, Eto'o, Messi
Leeds United is the main force on the stage, and Barcelona is a bit miserable. Alves and Abidal are unable to appear, but it is not without good news. Puyol is suspended and can just participate in the final final. Xavi and Iniesta also Even if healed.
In fact, a lot of things can be seen in the starting lineup tactics of the two sides, but this is actually just the surface. In fact, the two pursue completely different things, and only they know this.
Maybe something can be seen in this game. On the reminder of the staff, the players from both sides walked out of the locker room and then walked into the stadium under the guidance of the referee.
When the players walked to the court, Li Yi and Guardiola also shook hands before the game. The handshake was very close this time. They not only shook hands, but also hugged.
As for what was said? It's basically a few scenes that are not nutritious. After all, the relationship between the two can't really say anything cruel, but they must be thinking about defeating their opponents and winning the championship.
The results of the coin guessing by the captains of the two sides on the court came out. Beckham beat Puyol. It is natural to follow the feeling and preemptive strike.
Owen passed back to Modric, and Modric passed it back to Beckham. After the England fans got the ball, they did not rush to attack, but observed for a while, waiting for Barcelona to open the formation.
And Barcelona's action is very fast. In just a few seconds, Eto'o has rushed to Beckham, forcing Beckham to pass the ball to his teammates.
Matic took the ball, but Matic was just a transition. After taking the ball, Matic immediately passed the ball to Modric, and then Modric sent an overhead pass.
Beautiful~~~ Modric's pass is full of imagination and suddenness. Owen also understood and did not rush forward, so there was no defensive player around when he received Modric's pass.
Holding the ball, turning around, Owen began to impact the Barcelona defense, and Owen's target was not the orthodox central defender Peak, but Yaya Toure in this game and away.
