Chapter 467 We Are Going to Paris

The Barcelona training ground has never been so solemn. Several big players and future big players stood together to receive Rijkaard's education.

Deco, Xavi, Iniesta, Edmilson and Van Bommel all listened carefully.

In the battle against Manchester United, the midfield they built will become the most critical component.

Behind them, Ronaldinho is standing in front of the penalty area and playing with Valdes, seemingly practicing set pieces?

The lazy sunshine fell on Ronaldinho. Ronaldinho yawned from time to time, and finally sat lazily on the turf, looking tired and sleepy.

As for Barcelona's future Messi, he is bouncing the ball further away. Next to him are several small players from Barcelona's echelon, such as Busquets, Dos Santos, Bojan and so on. The young man didn't know what it was like to be sad, and the few of them still had a lot of fun.

"Cousin, will you appear tomorrow?"

"I don't know, maybe." Messi is still playing the ball seriously. He is eager to play in the second round, but it depends on Rijkaard's decision.

There was a slight injury in the first round, so Rijkaard put him on the bench and then sent him on, which almost changed the outcome.

Now that his injury is healed, he hopes Rijkaard can comply with public opinion and send him on the field...

"You will definitely start." Bo Yang raised his young head and looked at Messi with admiration. Bojan and Messi are cousins. Messi is 3 years younger and has always worked hard with Messi as his goal. Now Messi's records in all echelons have been rewritten by Bojan. He hopes that one day he can be like Messi. He also made his way into Barcelona's first-team lineup.

"Haha..." Messi just smiled and said nothing.

"According to me, just get rid of No. 9..." Busquets muttered quietly, but his voice was quieter than a mosquito, and only he could hear it. At such a young age, my mind is already very strange...

An hour later, Rijkaard announced Barcelona's starting lineup.

In terms of lineup, Barcelona has not changed much compared to the first round, except that Deco replaced Van Bommel, who played average. The front line is still the fixed trident of Ronaldinho, Eto'o and Giuly. The good news is that Larsson can come on as a substitute after recovering from injury.

Both Deco and Xavi returned from injury, resulting in Deco entering the starting lineup, replacing Edmilson, while Xavi sat on the bench.

Currently, Puyol, Marcos and Van Bommel in the Barcelona team are all yellow cards. If they are unfortunately picked up again in this game, they will repeat the 1992 Champions League semi-final against Benfica and miss the Wembley final. Rijkaard downplayed the issue: "It's a fact that they may miss the final, but they are the kind of people who don't commit many fouls. They don't need to think about it, just focus on the game. We hope that no one will be there when we get to Paris Suspended due to yellow card issue."

Coach Frank Rijkaard maintained a low profile as before: "I know our fans have begun to dream of the final, but now that the second round has not yet been played, there is no room for optimism. I personally feel that we are ready for this game. It's less difficult than the first leg, both tactically and psychologically. Manchester United and Chelsea? No, I don't agree with that, it's two different knockout games, two different opponents."

Facing Deco's comeback,

Rijkaard commented: "Deco's return is good news. He is very important to the team. We will become stronger because of him. We have nothing to worry about."

Messi is disappointed. He is not in the starting lineup. Barcelona still has no real place for him in the most critical battle. No matter how well he performs in the game, Barcelona still belongs to the world of great gods.

Since Frank Rijkaard took charge of Barcelona in 2003, he has never lost a game at Camp Nou in a European game. If Barcelona defeats Manchester United in this game, their number of wins in Europe will reach 220, surpassing Real Madrid by one, and they will surpass Juventus in the number of finals they have participated in 14 times, trailing only Real Madrid by 2 times and becoming the second in Europe...

...Yes, if you look at the numbers, there is indeed no reason for Barcelona to lose to Manchester United at home. Ronaldinho, who has already confirmed his appearance, said at the pre-match press conference: "We hope to create our own history."

"Winning the Champions League is the beginning of building a historic team." Ronaldinho raised this game to a historical level from the beginning. "We have prepared the game meticulously. Our teammates all know that this is It's a great opportunity to write a new chapter in the club's history and we don't want to waste it. That's why we're looking forward to the final."

In last week's training match, Ronaldinho collided with Puyol, causing a recurrence of an old injury to his right leg. However, he said that the injury is no longer serious and will definitely play: "I am ready. I will help my teammates and the team. Showing up in Paris. It's going to be tough and of course I take it seriously. Of course for me personally, the happiest thing is to be able to play."

"We will play as usual and will not make any changes. It doesn't matter who the opponent is because they are all capable teams."

Ferguson once said that Ronaldinho was unstoppable. Ronaldo denied this statement: "No one is unstoppable. In some games you may play well, but in others not. I can The guarantee is that I can do something big against Manchester United."

Facing the aggressive Barcelona, ​​Ferguson was very low-key at the pre-match press conference.

To be honest, he didn't like the Catalans speaking so high-profile before the game. They seemed to think they had entered the final.

It seems that Manchester United is not taken seriously at all.

The second round hasn't even started yet, so they think they can go to Paris?

"As long as it's not 9 vs. 11, everything is easy to talk about..."

Ferguson just dropped this sentence and didn't say a word of other nonsense.

On that day, nearly 100,000 people poured into Camp Nou, filling the stadium to capacity.

The number of Manchester United fans who came from afar to sit in Camp Nou was almost negligible.

boom,

boom,

boom,

Just standing in the player tunnel, Dong Fangzhuo could already feel the turbulence of Camp Nou, and his heart was beating faster subconsciously.

This was the first time I really felt the pressure.

Camp Nou is, after all, a different stadium. Playing a game here feels completely different...

"We're going to Paris,"

"We're going to Paris,"

Cristiano Ronaldo kept repeating these words from Ferguson in the locker room, trying to motivate and release himself in this way...

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: Shukeju mobile version reading website:
