Wandering outside Shankley's Gate

I heard the shouts of KOP

Shankley has left us

But he left a great team

Before you go to heaven

Now, glory surrounds Anfield Road

On the way to Anfield

We used to witness King Kenny's football there

His unique football

Our former Steve Haewell is flying

We sing with dreams and music

Glory surrounds Anfield Stadium

...

Standing outside Paisley's door

I heard the shouts of KOP

Paisley has left us

We dream of going back to Rome in 77

That great team you lead

Our Red Army soldiers are fighting in their way

On the way to Anfield

We used to witness King Kenny's football there

His unique football

Our former Steve Haewell is flying

We sing with dreams and music

Glory surrounds Anfield Stadium

At the huge French Stadium, tens of thousands of fans gathered in the stands. If you look down from a high altitude, it would be a crowd of people and full of seats. It was a very spectacular scene, especially the night view of Paris, which was dazzling.

On the stadium, this song by Liverpool fans [On Anfield Road] completely overwhelmed the Barcelona fans' voices.

"No wonder everyone recognizes that Liverpool fans are the most terrifying group of fans in the world. No team can match them in creating momentum and atmosphere!"

The fans' singing has never stopped since the team entered the stadium, and their singing has accompanied the team's entire warm-up process.

The camera swept through everyone in the stands, from UEFA's Johnson and Platini, to the senior executives of two clubs in Liverpool and Barcelona, ​​to Jennifer Aniston, Charlize Theron, Melissa Terrio and other rumored Princess Caesars, swept around and returned to the training ground.

Both teams have completed pre-match warm-up training, and the players are walking towards the locker room.

"The warm-up is over. The competition is about to begin!"

"This is undoubtedly the last and most influential match of Europe this season. The Champions League final, Barcelona, ​​the top giants from Spain, against defending champion Liverpool from England!"

"Two offensive teams that are most sought after and recognized by fans in the world today will undoubtedly return to this final at the Stade de France on the 50th anniversary of the Champions League, and present a gorgeous and delicious meal to fans all over the world."

"Is it Barcelona defeated Liverpool and laid the foundation for the Dream 2 team's dynasty? Or is it Liverpool beat Barcelona and became the first great team to successfully defend the Champions League since the reform. The answer is about to be revealed!"

When Yang Cheng was about to enter the locker room, he saw Paul Bayer coming in from outside, holding a piece of paper in his hand. He shook at Yang Cheng, "The starting lineup is out!"

Yang Cheng took it and glanced, frowned slightly, and handed it back to Paul Bayer. Without saying anything, he pushed open the door of the locker room and walked in. Paul Bayer followed him and entered the locker room.

Compared with the locker room where Liverpool was always relaxing in the past, the atmosphere in the locker room today seems very solemn.

Before such a critical game, no one can be relaxed. Even the top superstar of a big name cannot do it. Unless he doesn't care about this game at all, who doesn't care about the Champions League final?

"Guys!" Yang Cheng came to the middle of the players, "Barcelona's starting lineup has come out."

After a pause, Yang Cheng laughed. "It's not too unexpected to us!"

This sentence undoubtedly made many players feel relieved because they will find that the head coach has a thorough understanding of all the opponent's ideas. Of course, who will be serious about whether it is true or false?

"Goal Valdes, Van Bronthorst, Marcos, Puyol and Oleg in the back line, the three midfielders are Iniesta, Ed Milson and Xavi, and the tridents of the future are Ronaldinho, Etoo and Messi."

Yang Cheng's prediction was wrong in two places. One was the right-back. He thought it should be Beletti, but Rijkaard used Oleg. Needless to say, he must strengthen the right defense and freeze Liverpool's left, because almost few teams can suppress the left side of Ronaldo and Lisse.

Another mistake is Messi. He originally thought that Rijcard would use more experienced Jiuli instead of Messi. After all, although the Argentine young player is very talented, he lacks experience. Moreover, this is a Champions League final. Even teams like Ronaldinho and Gerrard will be nervous. Can you make a young player not nervous?

"Obviously, they were a little scared!" Yang Cheng said with a smile, "so they made appropriate adjustments."

Speaking of this, Yang Cheng walked to the side of Xiao Xiao Luo and Lisse, "Do it well, let's see you when you attack from the left!"

Little Ronaldo nodded, "Don't worry, boss, I will definitely beat Barcelona's right!"

Yang Cheng believed in this without doubt. One-on-one, he was still very confident in his beloved disciple, and no one could easily suppress Xiao Xiao Luo.

"Aryang!" Yang Cheng turned around, "Don't be polite to your fellow Dutch, otherwise his experience will eat you!"

Robben nodded seriously. In this game, he faced Van Bronhorst, a very young left-back, but his strength was still very good. However, Robben has his own advantage, that is, his speed and skills.

"In the middle, Gerald and Essin should pay attention to suppressing Iniesta and Xavi. Edmilson appears more like a defender. We should cut Iniesta and Xavi and Xavi as much as possible from the midfield, just like what we did to AC Milan. Do you understand?"

As soon as Yang Cheng finished speaking, Gerald and Essin nodded constantly.

"Michael!" Yang Cheng came to Carrick. "Give yourself more confidence. You are not lost to Harvey or to anyone. No matter what the situation is, you must not doubt your passing strength. I have 100% confidence in you, and you must also have enough confidence in yourself."

Carrick nodded.

Yang Cheng walked over and grabbed his head. He patted, "Think about the passing of the FA Cup final, how beautiful it was. It was your passing. It's incredible, right? You have the strength. But you don't know it yourself, but I know, so you have to believe me!"

Carrick nodded solemnly, "I believe, boss!"

Yang Cheng nodded, turned around and walked to the distance without saying a word, Glenn Johnson, who lowered his head.

"Hey, Glenn!" Yang Cheng came directly to him and sat down. He put one hand on his shoulder, "How old are you?"

"21, boss!" Glenn Johnson replied.

"If I remember correctly, it should be almost 22, right?"

Glenn Johnson nodded, "August 23." This is his birthday.

"Did you know? Many great stars have done a lot of amazing things at the age of 22, such as Ronaldo, who was already the best player in the World Cup at the age of 22, and is also the European Footballer of the Year and World Footballer of the Year."

"The opponent you are facing in this game. Ronaldinho, who participated in the Korea-Japan World Cup when he was 22 years old, and performed very well. I was there at the time and I told him that you will become the best star in the world!"

When Glenn Johnson heard this, he looked up and looked at his head coach.

"Now you are almost 22 years old. If you want to fight for the upcoming main position of the England national team, you have to show everyone. I tell you, Glenn. You will become the best right back in the world, starting from this game, from your stare at Ronaldinho to death!"

Yang Cheng stood up and looked at the young English player who raised his head, "Remember my words, kill the strongest opponent, you are the strongest!"

One of the important reasons why Glenn Johnson is used instead of Finnan or Wolnock is speed.

Finnan and Volnoke are indeed very good in defense, but Yang Cheng is worried that they will not keep up with Ronaldinho in their overall pace. The Brazilian is running around like loaches, and he will get wherever there is a gap. This is very fatal, and his speed is very fast.

Moreover, as early as before the game, Yang Cheng asked the coaching staff to arrange Glenn Johnson for targeted defensive training. The focus is not on close combat, but on blocking Ronaldinho's cutting and passing angle.

To be honest, there are very few defenders who can do it if they want to kill Ronaldinho, especially when he is at his peak.

After explaining the players' tasks, Yang Cheng returned to the middle of the locker room, looked around the players, and was silent for a while.

He sighed and smiled bitterly with some self-deprecating smile, "Suddenly I don't know what to say!"

A few of the players smiled, but everyone looked up at their head coach.

"We have said what we should say in our daily training, and we have done what we should do. I originally prepared a lot of things I wanted to say, some of which I saw from the movies, I think it was very inspiring, and some of them were thought out in normal times. I felt very satisfying, but now I can't use them all."

"Do you know why?" Yang Cheng asked with a smile.

Some of the players did not respond, but some shook their heads.

"Because I think that when you come to this stadium and walk into this locker room, no one needs to be inspired or motivated, because no one wants to see that championship trophy with his own eyes. The championship trophy that was already caught by us was snatched away by others. You will do your best for it, right?"

"Yes!" many players answered.

"I believe in you, I believe in you more than you yourself, so please believe in me..." Yang Cheng pointed at himself.

After a pause, he nodded seriously and said, "We will definitely succeed, we will definitely!"

"Remember my words, remember under any circumstances, we will succeed!"

Gerald stood up first, nodded and came to Yang Cheng, hugging his head coach tightly.

The players followed suit and walked over one by one, hugging Yang Cheng tightly.
