Chapter 763 The Stage for the Decisive Battle

The media believe that Manchester City's choice of Luton as the place to prepare for the Champions League final is not a wise choice.

They think that Gao Bo chose Luton just because of his feelings for Luton. At this point, Gao Bo seems to have lost his rational judgment.

Because in any way, Luton's training base is far less than Tottenham's.

And Luton fans will probably be too enthusiastic.

It's shocking to see them greet Manchester City, I'm afraid Luton won the title himself, but that's it.

But such enthusiasm may disrupt Manchester City's training and preparations.

Gao Bo is still practicing closed training. With these enthusiastic fans, can closed training continue? Wouldn't that chill the hearts of those passionate Luton fans?

Therefore, the media generally believe that enthusiastic Luton fans will become a burden for Gao Bo and Manchester City.

However, after Manchester City arrived in Luton, the training was still closed. They did not allow any reporters or fans, and any personnel unrelated to Manchester City, did not enter the stadium to watch the training.

Even Luton chairman David Morton and the team's head coach John Aston, two longtime friends of Gao Bo, met only in the team's former office, not at the training ground.

Only after training can fans come to ask for autographs of players and reporters can come to interview.

But that's all, no one wants to inquire about Manchester City's training information. There are no pictures of Manchester City's training in any photos and videos.

And Luton fans are not dissatisfied with this. They know that Manchester City needs a quiet preparation environment, so there are not too many fans running to the training base to disturb the team's training.

As Gao Bo said, here, they can enjoy the peace.

In such a preparation environment, Manchester City's preparation training went very smoothly.

On the last day before the game, Manchester City held a final tactical meeting in the conference room. After explaining the last few things that need attention, Gao Bo asked the players to go back to rest.

Gao Bo breathed a sigh of relief after the lights in all the players' rooms were turned off.

He walked on the court at the training base,

Stadium lights have also been turned off.

“The weather was fine”

Gao Bo looked at the twinkling stars in the sky and muttered to himself.

He simply sat down on the training base.

These days, Gao Bo is also setting an example. He is completely in the training base and has never gone out. He has not even visited his old friends in the urban area of ​​Luton, ten kilometers away.

Although, there are not many familiar people.

He sent some old friends tickets and invited them to the final.

He also picked up Mr. Chen and his wife who were far away in China. Gao Bo looked at his watch. Now Mr. Chen and the others should be on the plane from China to London. He asked Haruko to help him pick up the plane.

Gao Bo, lying on the grass, took a deep breath.

The second Champions League final still made him feel a little uneasy.

The stars twinkled.

Hope tomorrow will be good weather.

On the morning of the match day, Gao Bo waited early in the lobby on the first floor of the players' dormitory at the training base.

The morning training is just a very simple physical training.

The afternoon is a rest time.

After lunch, the entire Manchester City team has a lunch break, including the coach.

At this time, the training base was silent.

The league is over, and now there are only Manchester City players left in the training base.

Gao Bo slept in bed for half an hour and then did not continue to sleep.

For Gao Bo, only two or three hours of rest a day is enough, and a half-hour lunch break is considered a luxury for Gao Bo.

The half-hour break made his mind clear and his whole body refreshed.

In the evening, he has to keep an eye on the game on the sidelines, and command according to the progress of the game at any time.

The game is at 7:30 in the evening, and at 4:00 in the afternoon, the team starts to eat dinner.

At this time, the team's nutritionist will monitor the players' food intake at any time.

It is absolutely not allowed to eat too much, lest the players eat too much, and the blood will preferentially supply the digestive system, resulting in drowsiness.

The nutrition team is also preparing food for the intermission.

Mainly bananas, and a nutrient solution that is mainly composed of glucose and salt plus some other easily absorbed nutrients.

These are all fueling the players at half-time.

The coaching team begins to discuss and confirm the game plan for the last time.

The team needs to arrange several sets of aids, from the first minute to the last minute of the game, and even the possible overtime, and even penalty shootouts. Analyze the various situations that arise and make arrangements.

What to do if you score a goal, what to do if you lose the ball.

Scores or conceded goals five minutes before the game, as well as red and yellow cards, fouls, game rhythm, etc.

A whole lot of information.

There is also the medical team monitoring the physical condition of the players, the physical condition of the players, the muscle fatigue and so on.

This is the most important game, and no amount of meticulous preparation can be overdone.

This Champions League final is naturally a lot of attention.

CCTV's live broadcast team entered Wembley Stadium two hours before the game. CCTV sent two teams on and off the field, one was responsible for the commentary on the field, and the other was responsible for the live broadcast. The atmosphere before the game.

At this time, media from all over the world have gathered at Wembley Stadium, and OB vans can be seen everywhere around the stadium.

CCTV is just one of them.

"Friends from the audience, I am now in the square at the main entrance of Wembley Stadium! At this time, fans from both sides are pouring in from all directions, gathering here!!!"

A CCTV reporter held a microphone and said loudly.

At this time, many Manchester City fans with sky blue patches on their faces suddenly entered the country. They hugged reporters, and then sang and danced.

"High!! High!! He is the best coach in the world, he is Chinese, he is more famous than Bruce Lee, he is our most beloved coach!!"

The fans improvised music, and the reporter had no choice but to dance with the fans.

In England, Chinese journalists have to be very careful.

Manchester City fans are very enthusiastic about the Chinese media sometimes too enthusiastic, as they are now.

And some are rude

Fortunately, the two sides in this game did not have any grudges before.

The two teams played against each other in the Champions League for the first time, and the fans of both sides had a friendly atmosphere before the game.

There was no conflict between fans before the game, and fans of the two teams could even be seen taking a cordial pre-game photo.

Of course, as soon as the game starts, this friendly atmosphere will be gone!

Every fan's mood fluctuates with his team's performance.

excited

frustrated

Quiet

restless

Football touches people's hearts.

At 6:30 in the evening, the buses of the two teams came to the stadium one after another.

The fans, who had seemed close before, were immediately divided into two camps.

Manchester City fans are cheering for their team, while Dortmund fans are crowding the Dortmund bus.

Gao Bo, who participated in the Champions League final for the second time, was the first to get off the bus.

The flashing lights blared.

Then came the Manchester City players.

Captain Kompany rushed out of the door first, the tall Belgian wearing headphones, this is his first Champions League final, but from the expression, no one can see what the Belgian star is thinking.

Next is Kaka. This is not Kaka's first Champions League final. In Milan, he won the Champions League.

Champions League Champions in 2007!

And this is his third time, the Champions League final!

He has to fight for his second Champions League trophy.

Griezmann got out of the car.

This season, Griezmann has eight goals in the Champions League, more than Ronaldo, who has scored 12 goals, Messi, who has scored 11 goals, and Aza, who has scored 10 goals. Er is less, but he has eleven assists at the same time!

If Manchester City can win the Champions League this season, Griezmann will likely become the best player in the Champions League, and his competitors are Messi and Ronaldo, as well as his teammate Hazard.

Then Hazard, David Silva and more Manchester City players got out of the bus.

Gao Bo ignored the microphones protruding from both sides of the passage, and looked up at the stadium towering in front of him.

nice weather

Gao Bo stepped firmly and walked in from the special locker room passage.

The same goes for the players behind.

Their steps are firm, towards the stage of the final decisive battle!
