Chapter 375: Pointing to the Champions League

A video of the entire Liverpool team humming "You'll Never Walk Alone" in a moving bus quickly attracted huge attention after Firmino posted it on social platforms. Thousands of fans commented in just a few minutes. This speed is increasing as the The passage of time increases geometrically.

Fortunately, Firmino had already turned on prompt-free, otherwise his phone would definitely explode.

The popular headlines of China’s famous football APP Qiaoqiudi appeared like this: KOP spirit, overwhelming fighting power, aiming for the Champions League!

The article was posted by a netizen called Mixed Behemoth Prawn. In just half an hour, it had thousands of comments, and it grew rapidly as time went by. Liverpool fans themselves have a large group in China, and then In addition, there is a Chinese player Li Qing, and his attention has greatly increased. Li Qing himself is a post-00s generation, which has great appeal to post-00s students.

Li Qing, who was involved in the incident, also noticed the headlines of "Understanding the Football Emperor" at the hotel where he was staying. He said a few words under the name "Buddha", which immediately aroused the excitement of many fans. However, he still had to go to the Kiev Olympic Stadium with the team to adapt to the venue in the afternoon, so he I stopped chatting and concentrated on preparing for the Champions League final.

The 2017-2018 Champions League final kicks off at 7:45 pm Central European Time tomorrow night. In total, it has been less than thirty hours since the start of the game.

Liverpool had just arrived at their hotel, and Real Madrid's special plane also arrived at Kiev Giuliani International Airport, and then took a white bus prepared by the organizer to another five-star hotel in Kiev.

According to the organizer's schedule, Liverpool will adapt to the competition venue from 2 to 4 pm, while Real Madrid will adapt from 4:30 to 6:30.

Compared with Real Madrid's time to adapt to the field, Liverpool's time is obviously slightly worse, because... the time for Real Madrid players to adapt to the field is closer to the time of tomorrow night's Champions League final, and the state adjustment will be better.

Maybe a little bit seems insignificant, but it is actually crucial to a certain period of the game. Football matches are constantly changing, and maybe just one beat will cause a goal to be conceded.

Fans all over the world are waiting for the Champions League final to start, and the Liverpool team is the first to take the bus to the Olympic Stadium in Kiev.

It is said that it is a stadium, but actually it is more appropriate to call it a stadium. There are nine international standard runways between the football field and the auditorium, which is equivalent to making the fans further away from the football field, and the sense of sight when watching the football is much worse.

However, the Kyiv Olympic Stadium is the largest sports venue in Ukraine, with a capacity of 60,000 spectators. The stadium also hosted five games of the 2012 European Cup, one of which was the final.

"Let me go, why does it feel like we are going uphill?"

Sitting on the bus, Li Qing clearly felt that the front of the bus was more successful, and couldn't help but say.

"If I said the Kyiv Olympic Stadium was built on a hillside, would you believe it?"

Milner turned to look at Li Qing and said with a smile.

"real?"

Li Qing said in disbelief, and Curtis Jones sitting next to him also looked confused.

Milner looked at Henderson, who recalled: "Six years ago, James and I were both shortlisted for the national team to participate in the Poland-Ukraine European Cup. It happened that the second round of the group stage against Sweden was at the Kiev Olympics. court."

Having said this, Henderson paused and looked back at Li Qing and Curtis Jones: "My reaction was the same as yours at the time. I didn't believe that a stadium would be built on a hillside. Facts have proved that the Kiev Olympic Stadium was built on It’s on a hillside, but don’t be surprised, the golf course on the hillside is flat.”

"..."

Li Qing and Curtis Jones looked at each other. Li Qing obviously reacted faster. He said without blushing and without a beating heart: "Curtis, are you saying that your brain is not clear? I told you so. Yes, the court must be flat. If you don’t believe it, luckily Jordan said something fair.”

"I……"

Curtis Jones wanted to say something more, but Li Qing patted him on the shoulder again: "Children, you must be brave enough to take responsibility for your mistakes. You are still young and have little knowledge. It is normal. Next time, just ask me privately about this kind of question, right? "

All team members: "..."

Apparently speechless at Li Qing's shamelessness, head coach Klopp grinned.

The atmosphere within the team is very good.

Tomorrow night is the Champions League final. A good team atmosphere can allow the whole team to burst out with more powerful energy, thereby defeating Real Madrid at the Kyiv Olympic Stadium and winning the first Champions League championship in his personal coaching career!

Kyiv Olympic, like many modern stadiums, has also been renovated, but the entrance to the stadium is relatively advanced. Liverpool can drive directly in by bus, thus preventing fanatical fans from coming into contact with the players.

As the time for the Champions League final gets closer and closer, more and more football fans come to Kiev. As the venue for the Champions League final, the Kiev Olympic Stadium has become the final stop for fans' pilgrimage.

As the bus drove into the stadium, the Liverpool players could still hear the fans shouting from outside the stadium. The crowd was roaring. The huge shouts gave the Liverpool players who were preparing to adapt to the venue a greater sense of responsibility.

Help fans win a Champions League title!

The Kiev Olympic Stadium was renovated seven years ago and looks very new, especially the locker room. However, Liverpool players who are accustomed to professional stadiums are somewhat unaccustomed to this kind of comprehensive stadium with professional plastic tracks.

Fortunately, I went to the Olympic Stadium in Rome during this year's Champions League group stage, so I have an accurate understanding of the comprehensive stadium.

The auditorium is far away from the stadium, so the atmosphere will definitely be different. The turf of the stadium is customized according to the highest level of FIFA and is very comfortable to run on. Li Qing also wore Nike's special sneakers for the first time.

Firmino asked curiously: "Li, have you changed your sneakers? Huh? Nike? Why haven't I seen these sneakers? Are they new products?"

"So be it."

Li Qing said casually that according to Mendes, the signing was still in the confidential stage, so too much information could not be revealed.

The adaptation venue is divided into two parts. The first part is open training, and the second part is closed training. The open training lasts for thirty minutes, and the closed training lasts for one hour. After deducting the inexplicable time consumed, it is exactly two hours.

It is said to be a public training, but it is more like a pre-match warm-up in front of the media that has a cooperative relationship with UEFA.

Fifteen minutes are spent jogging, and the remaining fifteen minutes are for ordinary ball training under the arrangement of the coach, such as passing and catching games and monkey games. The thirty-minute open training ends before the game is over. .

It is worth mentioning that one media reporter had a different focus. Every shot he took was focused on the football shoes Li Qing was wearing.

Yes, this person is a professional photographer contracted by Nike.

There are many tactics in the closed training drills, such as passing and cutting, crosses from the wing, shooting, jumping in from behind to participate in the attack, etc. When the players are sweating, the one-hour training is declared to be over, and the players take a short rest and return to training. to the locker room, and head coach Klopp took top scorer Li Qing to the press conference hall to participate in the regular pre-match press conference.
