Atletico Madrid flew to Berlin, Germany three days before the final.
In fact, their opponent Barcelona also took a plane and landed at Berlin Airport within a few hours after Atletico Madrid arrived in Berlin.
There are only two days left before the Champions League final, and the preparations of the two teams are very concealed.Barcelona only opened 15 minutes of media shooting time every day, while Atletico Madrid simply closed the training ground. All media reporters can only interview Atletico Madrid players outside the training ground.
The two heavyweight champions in Spain, the La Liga title was taken away by Atletico Madrid, but in the final of the Copa del Rey, Barcelona swept the Spaniard with a score of [-]-[-] in the Catalan Derby and won it strongly. The Copa del Rey champion, and the Copa del Rey victory also swept away the haze of losing the league championship to a certain extent.
And this Champions League final will be a head-to-head confrontation between these two Spanish teams. The league champion and the Copa del Rey champion will compete in the Champions League to decide who is the king of this season.
This Champions League final is indeed full of gold.Both teams currently have no injuries, and there are no players suspended due to red and yellow cards.Both sides can be regarded as the main force to play.Although Barcelona played a Copa del Rey final after the league ended, it was a week ago, and a week was enough for the players to recover.Therefore, there is no situation where Atletico Madrid has a physical advantage.
With the footsteps of the final approaching.The eyes of the whole world began to focus on this UEFA Champions League final match.
The Champions League final can be described as the season finale of European football.
The leagues in most European countries are multi-year seasons. Basically, before June every year, the major European leagues will end one after another.
The influence and importance of the Champions League final is no less than that of the World Cup final.
In fact, purely from a football point of view, the technical content of the Champions League final is even higher than that of the World Cup final.The World Cup final is more due to the huge political influence, which is incomparable to the Champions League.
But this is only compared with the World Cup final, which happens every four years, while the Champions League final happens every year.In non-World Cup years, the Champions League final is the most watched football event in the world.
The media followed up one after another and began to hype up the game.
Everywhere in Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, not a single player, is under the magnifying glass of the media, breaking it apart and analyzing it for the fans.
Atletico Madrid has implemented a closed training, and the media can get very little information.But it doesn't matter, Atletico Madrid has no secrets in the eyes of many people, and their main lineup is quite fixed.In terms of offense, it basically relies heavily on the performance of the attackers in the frontcourt, especially Li Qingshan.
Therefore, the state of Li Qingshan basically means the state of Atletico Madrid.
How is Li Qingshan?Many people think it is good.Especially at the end of the season, Li Qingshan almost completely broke out. In the last two rounds of the league, he had a big four, followed by a hat-trick.Scoring seven goals in two games, such a state certainly cannot be said to be bad.
So what about Barcelona, Barcelona's number one star is naturally Messi.Messi's state is also quite good.After performing a hat-trick in the last round of the league, they also scored three goals in the Copa del Rey final. In terms of the comparison of the top cards of the two sides, Li Qingshan and Messi have been in very good form recently.
And the overall aspect of the two teams.Some people are optimistic about Atletico Madrid, and of course some are even more optimistic about Barcelona.
Optimistic about Atletico Madrid is naturally because in the penultimate round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid beat Barcelona [-]-[-] at home, and successfully staged a big reversal in the last round, taking away the La Liga championship from Barcelona.
It’s just that Atlético Madrid is not without hidden worries, that is, their goals are too dependent on Li Qingshan. If Li Qingshan can always be in good condition, then of course there is no problem. What about Li Qingshan’s poor condition?It is of course inevitable that the player's state will fluctuate. Once Li Qingshan's state fluctuates, Atletico Madrid will be finished.
In this regard, Barcelona, whose lineup is thicker and overall stronger than Atletico Madrid, doesn't have to worry too much.From the player's personal strength.Barcelona is not just Messi, they also have Suarez, Neymar, Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets... These are all super giant players, players from Atletico Madrid Although the strength is considered good, there are only two players at this level, Li Qingshan and Griezmann.
Therefore, on a stage like the Champions League final, Barcelona has more stars, and of course they will be favored by more people.
In particular, the Catalan media listed all aspects of Barcelona's advantages, as if Barcelona had already won the Champions League final without playing.I completely forgot that Barcelona was defeated by Atletico Madrid [-]-[-] away.
Of course, they can also argue that it is Atletico Madrid's home stadium, and the venue for the Champions League final, the Berlin Olympic Stadium, is a neutral venue.
...........
Amidst the turmoil of media and public opinion, the two teams have adjusted their state to the best respectively to welcome the Champions League final.
On June [-]th, game day arrived.
On this day, Atletico Madrid had the last joint training before the game in the morning, and there was no training plan in the afternoon.
After a simple dinner in the evening, the whole team took a rest, boarded the bus, and started driving to the Berlin Olympic Stadium.
From the hotel where they stayed to the stadium, Atletico Madrid fans can be seen everywhere, wearing Atletico Madrid's red and white jerseys, holding various slogans and star posters.
Of course, there are also many fans in Barcelona.
Tens of thousands of Spaniards have poured into Berlin, Germany in the past two days. They gathered together on the streets of Berlin, and Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are clearly separated.
Of course, some Barcelona fans don't think they are Spanish.
In the Barcelona fan group, in addition to wearing the Barcelona uniform, many fans also wear the Lone Star flag, which symbolizes the independence of Catalonia.
Although UEFA has warned Barcelona many times, it obviously has no effect.
Atletico Madrid's fans are mostly from Madrid, so many Atletico Madrid fans also brought the Spanish flag into the stadium.
Under the influence of politics, the antagonism between the fans of both sides is at an all-time high.This made the local security department also start to get nervous.
Fortunately, until fans from both sides entered the stadium, there was no conflict.
