In fact, although there is no defending champion Barcelona in the Champions League semi-finals this season, if we trace the origin of the coaches of the three teams in the semi-finals, we cannot do without Barcelona.
Maybe ordinary fans won’t think of it, but the media naturally knows it.
Inter Milan coach Mourinho.
Bayern Munich coach Van Gaal.
Liverpool coach Koeman.
The three of them used to coach Barcelona during Van Gaal, and the other two assisted Koeman.
Koeman is a member of the coaching staff and Mourinho is a translator and assistant.
Times have changed, but I didn't expect the three of them to meet in the semi-finals of the Champions League this season. I have to say that fate is impermanent but full of drama.
As for Lyon, because it is the least famous and least favored, no one cares about it.
When it was Koeman's turn to attend the pre-Champions League press conference, he talked about his past history and the years he worked with Van Gaal.
"Van Gaal is a great coach. He has his own unique position and style. I have seen it from him and learned a lot. Every work experience has helped me a lot. Working with Van Gaal is no exception. I am very happy to meet him in the Champions League semi-finals. There is no problem between us. If Bayern Munich advances to the final, I will bless him and his team."
After becoming Liverpool's head coach and leading the team to win the Premier League championship, Koeman's external image began to change.
This is not just about becoming a little humble, but about being more gentlemanly.
There is no need to be an enemy of the world, nor do you have to be as arrogant as Mourinho. Koeman prefers a gentle and humble image to avoid Liverpool's huge public pressure.
He knew that he could not be an enemy of the media alone like Mourinho, and to isolate the locker room from the media through his own "war", so he hoped to win the favor of the media with a modest attitude and let the media show mercy.
Although he knows that successful teams and successful people will observe from different perspectives, and he is looking forward to the successful people who are waiting for the team to make mistakes. Then he will criticize them.
But before the failure occurs, he still does not want to have sharp conflicts with the media and make the relationship worse.
As for his colleagues, he was even less interested in provoking wars. Even if there were grudges in the past, he was willing to turn wars into jade. If he really couldn't do it, he would be purgatory.
Given Koeman's attitude, the reporters no longer grasped the past between him and Van Gaal and turned the topic to the game itself.
"In Liverpool's elimination of Real Madrid and Barcelona, Liverpool both adopted the defensive counterattack tactics and achieved great success. Does this mean that Liverpool will also adopt the same tactical strategy against Bayern Munich?"
Koeman replied calmly: "We will arrange tactics according to the opponent's style and technical and tactical characteristics. Liverpool will not remain unchanged. Bayern Munich is not Real Madrid or Barcelona. Liverpool will welcome the game with a new attitude tomorrow night's game."
"So Liverpool will strive to take the lead at Allianz Stadium?"
"It will be difficult because it is in Bayern Munich's territory. I can only say that Liverpool's original intention will not change, and we will strive to take away the victory at Allianz Stadium."
"For Bayern Munich's two key players, Ribery and Robben, has Liverpool thought of how to restrain them?"
"Of course we will pay attention to the opponent's core offensive players, but I still say that football is a sport of team confrontation, and the overall offensive and defensive limitation is the most important."
The next night, at the Allianz Stadium, Bayern Munich fans created a magnificent cheering scene in the stands.
In contrast, Liverpool fans who came from afar were drowned in the crowd.
Liverpool and Bayern Munich players stand in the player channel to prepare for the game.
Qin Xiong and Robben reminisced at the end of the team, and when they met, they hugged each other.
Roben hugged Qin Xiong's neck and smiled: "I didn't expect to meet so soon, and it was in the Champions League semi-finals."
Qin Xiong asked with a playful look: "Are you happy?"
Robben grinned and said, "Of course I'm unhappy. But when I think about it, I'm still a little excited."
"What? Isn't it enough to be an opponent with me?"
Qin Xiong and Robben can be said to be "loved and killed each other", from the Netherlands to England, and then to Madrid. Now they are back to their past hostile state.
Robben leaned into Qin Xiong's ear and whispered: "Whether you or I finally stepped onto the stage of the Champions League final, have you ever thought about what kind of scene it would be?"
A wonderful curve appeared on the corner of Qin Xiong's mouth, and he understood the subtext in Robben's words.
He looked at Robben's eyes and the two of them laughed at the same time.
Bernabeu!
The Champions League final this season will be at the Bernabeu!
In any case, whether it is Robben or Qin Xiong, we cannot actually forget the years of fighting side by side at the Bernabeu.
Because at that time they almost achieved perfection and became the kingly army that scared the European heroes!
After being swept out by Real Madrid or turning around and leaving, returning to the Bernabeu to play, the feeling is always special, and it is the Champions League final stage, which is even more exciting at the doorstep of the Champions League King.
Qin Xiong and Robben finally shook hands with each other, patted each other's backs, and walked into their respective teams.
Under the leadership of the referee team, the players of the two teams walked into the Allianz Stadium with their heads held high.
The theme song of the Champions League began to echo in the stadium, and the atmosphere in the Allianz stadium was extremely hot.
Looking around the court, Qin Xiong's eyes were filled with infinite fighting spirit.
Every day, he strives to become stronger, and his goals have never changed.
He wants to be the best one.
Now some fans have said: Qin Xiong is only one place to be the king of the World Cup!
But Qin Xiong doesn't think so.
The reality will be like this. Even if you try everything, you will be helpless in the end.
He can only give his all to the World Cup, but the hope is really slim.
But in the club arena, the situation is completely different.
He can achieve greater glory!
Plunder all the champions you can touch!
He will be remembered and praised as a legend.
It is to remember the winners and the most brilliant figures of this era when people recall today's history.
Qin Xiong, who has three Champions League games, does not have a prominent advantage in honor compared to too many legendary players in history. Qin Xiong, who has become the Golden Ball twice, is not considered the absolute king of this era.
Three Champions Leagues are not enough.
Two Golden Globe Awards are not enough!
Then go and plunder more!
