Although La Liga ended on May 14, Barcelona, ​​like Arsenal, successfully defended their title in advance at the end of April. Unlike Arsenal, it was one round ahead of time, Barcelona was three rounds ahead of time!

So Barcelona will not be at a physical disadvantage at all. They are energetic and both Arsenal have adjusted to their own limits at the end of the season. They are the best to come to Paris, France.

However, Barcelona did not have time to hold a league championship celebration, so they rushed to Paris immediately after the league ended.

Ronaldinho's appearance seemed to ignite the fanaticism of football fans across the city. He would never act like Henry when he came to Paris like a warrior.

He is full of a free and unrestrained aura, as if he is born with optimism, bringing people a sense of ease and pleasure.

It is his attitude that will put some pressure on Arsenal.

Perhaps that is the kingly demeanor, or the essence of Samba football, free and romantic, and unrestrained.

After Arsenal adjusted its internal team mentality, Barcelona arrived in Paris one step later, and now the two teams are truly in preparation.

The bell for the countdown to the Champions League final has also been ringing.

Although many media hope to interview players before the game, Arsenal club issued a media ban to restrict players from accepting personal interviews.

This is the most important game in the history of Arsenal club. The club attaches unprecedented importance to it. No one wants to create trouble, especially in the media.

The day before the Champions League final, Qin Xiong's agent Freddy and countless sponsor representatives from him gathered in Paris, preparing to watch the Champions League final on site.

There is no doubt that Qin Xiong's second Champions League final is extremely critical, which will determine whether he can become a superstar player indisputably!

In terms of popularity, Qin Xiong is a well-deserved superstar in Asia.

But at the competitive level, in European football, can Qin Xiong break through the last layer of window paper and become a green superstar?

This second Champions League final will be very important.

If he loses, he still has time to move forward, after all, he will only be 21 in another month.

But if he wins, his popularity and future will be limitless.

He will also be the first player in the new generation to officially enter the ranks of superstars!

Kaka, Ronaldo, Rooney, Messi, Torres and other players are now supernova and top stars. They are still a certain distance away from superstars.

As the new European football champion in 2005, Qin Xiong has already arrived at the threshold of the superstar gate.

Superstars and kings are different.

But to be a king, you must first become a superstar!

Similar opportunities do not just appear in front of Qin Xiong.

Like Henry and Ronaldinho will be in front of the opportunity to "become the king's challenge!" in this game.

In the afternoon, Wenger and Barcelona coach Rijkaard attended press conferences before the Champions League final respectively.

Rijkald's tone was a little low-key, but there was a sense of confidence in the low-key.

"Barcelona has been improving in the past two years, and now it is close to perfection. We have won many games and won some championships. But everyone knows that the Champions League is the highest achievement of European clubs. We hope to return to Barcelona with the trophy. But Arsenal is not a team that will hand over the victory to us. I am not surprised or surprised by Arsenal's achievements in England. Unlike the past, they not only have killers like Henry, but also up-and-coming stars like Qin Xiong. The final will definitely be very difficult. Barcelona will do their best to win. I hope the boys will not underestimate the enemy, play the Barcelona style, display our football philosophy on the court, and let fans all over the world witness the style of Barcelona."

Wenger also praised his opponent at the pre-match press conference.

"Barcelona is one of the top teams in European football. After a season, Barcelona often occupies the headlines. Their games are wonderful and beautiful. The players are talented and present a gorgeous football in front of the fans. Their call for winning the championship is very high. It is understandable that Arsenal participated in the Champions League final for the first time. Barcelona has won the Champions League championship, but I hope this will not bring pressure to the players, but a motivation to make the club's first Champions League award.

To fight in the Cup, as for how to limit Ronaldinho, I think Barcelona is strong in the whole, not a player. If we focus all our attention on Ronaldinho, it would definitely be an unforgivable mistake! He will create a great threat and will become a headache for us, but we cannot just see Ronaldinho alone, Etoho, Gulli, Deco, they can also create difficulties for Arsenal and even kill the game."

The pre-match press conference of the two coaches quickly made the headlines of football news.

Barcelona and Arsenal's peak Champions League battle is about to begin.

May 17, 2006.

Arsenal and Barcelona arrive at the Stade de France in Paris in the evening.

After warming up, the players of both teams returned to the locker room to adjust their emotions.

There are art programs to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Champions League. This year is the 51st Champions League final, so the final venue has also returned to Paris, France.

In the locker room, the Arsenal players have packed up their game equipment.

Wenger stood in front of everyone and rarely made a locker room speech before the game.

"In 246 days, 124 games in the Champions League, we came here, Paris, France, and the Stadium of France!

Everyone outside is saying that this is Arsenal's first time in the Champions League final. We lack experience and we are not as confident and calm as Barcelona.

I think this is a big mistake!

No team is born to be a champion, and it has only achieved a brilliant history after a period of struggle.

We have to admit that Arsenal's European War history is not worth mentioning. Our background in the European War is like a blank piece of paper. This is the reason why others despise and ridicule us.

But I think this is a good thing.

This makes us the writers of history and the changers of destiny!

The foundation shaper of a great club!

Everyone here has been recorded in history and has become a part of the glory of the Arsenal club.

But today we have the opportunity to rewrite history, let our name be engraved on the club's monument, and write it into the most glorious chapters in European football.

This is my chance and you.

We should face today rationally, soberly, motivated, and not cowardly!

I'm proud of you!

Please make every Arsenal proud!”

Wenger's speech did not arouse the whole team to cater wildly and unrestrainedly. On the contrary, every word from the professor hits the heart, making the Arsenal players neither too excited nor pessimistic, and just rightly correct their mentality to face the game.

Wenger walked out of the locker room, then Henry stood up, Qin Xiong stood up, and the Arsenal generals stood up one after another, with a rush of fighting spirit! (To be continued.)
Chapter completed!
