Chapter 442 Welcome back to Allianz
When both players stood in the passage and were waiting to play, as the captain of Bayern Munich, Ram stood beside Glory.
He did not go up and shake hands with Rongguang and chatted with him. He stood in his team and said to Rongguang without turning his head, "Sorry, Rong, we will defeat you this time and then hold the championship trophy."
"It's easy to talk big, Philip." Rongguang also looked straight ahead, not looking at Ram.
"This is not a big deal, our tactics are very targeted!"
"Oh? How is it targeted?"
"Don't try to get information out of my mouth!"
Glory smiled slightly.
"As it said, Philip, I won't show mercy in the game," he said later.
"Of course, we can't know much about this." Ram nodded, he turned his head to look at Rongguang, and then said:
“Welcome back to Allianz Stadium, Rong.”
Live broadcasts outside are broadcasting the appearance list of both sides. Every Bayern Munich player received deafening cheers.
After all, it is Bayern Munich's home court. Although the Champions League final should be considered a neutral position, there are still more Bayern Munich fans who buy tickets to enter the game than Manchester City fans.
In addition to reserve tickets for fans of both sides of the finals and tickets for sponsors from the beginning, some tickets are usually retained in the finals, and sold online or offline to local fans in the finals.
Since the final is the city where Bayern Munich is located, the fans of Bayern Munich will get the first to get the most out of the water and have bought a lot of them for fans who are neutral.
So there are far more Bayern Munich fans who will enter the game than Manchester City fans.
They will continue to cheer for Bayern Munich in the finals, putting huge pressure on Manchester City.
This has been felt from now on, and the cheers of Bayern Munich fans are deafening.
When it was the live broadcast to broadcast Manchester City players, the booing of Manchester City fans was drowned in the booing of Bayern Munich fans.
This is the advantage in numbers.
Bayern Munich fans are not tired of glory, which does not mean that they do not hate Manchester City.
Bayern Munich fans have a grudge against Manchester City.
In the 2009-2010 season, Bayern Munich did not even qualify for the Champions League group stage. Who caused it?
Manchester City.
Although it was a glory to score for Manchester City.
But Bayern Munich fans couldn't shine on their glory, so they had to vent their dissatisfaction and anger on Manchester City.
In their opinion, Manchester City can take away glory from Bayern Munich purely because of their wealth. If they don’t have glory and they can’t even participate in the Champions League, how could they eliminate Bayern Munich in the Champions League group stage?
Heness sold the glory to Manchester City, and although there was a responsibility that they had to bear, at the same time, Manchester City only paid a few stinky money and slammed Heness to knelt down on them and poached their heroic glory.
So when reading the names of Manchester City players, it is normal for Bayern Munich fans to boo.
The boo only disappeared when the name of Glory was read out on the live broadcast. But there was no cheer.
After all, they are still opponents in the Champions League final.
Even if Bayern Munich fans love glory, they still cannot cheer for their enemies.

After the broadcast, the referee led his referee team up from the back of the team, and he signaled the players on both sides to follow.
Appeared!
The Champions League theme song was played on the spot, and this scene is no stranger to Manchester City players. They just experienced it once last year.
However, many people are still a little unfamiliar with this Bayern Munich team now.
Even their core Robben has participated in the Champions League final for the first time. Robben became famous very early and attracted attention from the whole of Europe before transferring to Chelsea. His performance at Chelsea and Real Madrid has made him one of the best stars on the planet. But this is his first time participating in the Champions League final until this year.
This surprised many people, just like they learned that Robben is only twenty-eight years old this year - many people will definitely think that Robben is in his thirties only when he looks at Robben's appearance...
But in fact, they are just a little anxious.
Before this final, Robben did not make any comments on Glory in the media. In fact, Robben was very low-key this time.
It was different from the last time when the two teams fought, and Robben also learned his intelligence. Of course, behind this intelligence is a painful lesson...
If he hadn't lost to Glory in both games in the last time, he might not have been so honest.
Of course, from another perspective, it also shows that Robben is mature.

Players on both sides appear and broadcast them on TV to give close-up shots. The two sides take care of the most important players and get close-ups more time than other players.
TV broadcasting is using such lens language to tell everyone that these players will be the key figures in this game that determine the outcome of the game.
They are basically the best players in their respective teams and are the core of tactics.
Before the game, everyone thought that this game was likely to be Bayern Munich taking advantage of their home court to firmly control the football and control the situation on the court, while Manchester City played the defensive counterattack they were good at.
But when the game really started, everyone realized that they had guessed it wrong...
Bayern Munich did not mean to use his home advantage to control football and then play offensive football.
On the contrary... they fought a defensive counterattack!
Yes, the defensive counterattack.
Manchester City kicked off in the first half, so after Manchester City kicked off, they quickly recovered and contracted within 30 meters, waiting for Manchester City to attack.
Even Manchester City didn't expect it.
Moreover, Bayern Munich's contraction speed is very fast. Before Manchester City can attack, Bayern Munich has completed the contraction defense and then is ready to go outside.
"Uh..." John Mortson saw the clues and was stunned.
"It seems that Van Gaal has really put in the effort..." Alan Hansen said from the side.
Barcelona currently plays the best offensive football team and has the strongest attack firepower, but they have no way to face Manchester City. They are proud of their offense and have no room for performance. In the two rounds of the semi-finals, Barcelona only scored two goals at their home court.
And it's not just this season, but in the past three seasons, Barcelona has not even won a draw against Manchester City.
What does this mean?
The most powerful team on this planet's offensive team is like meeting a natural enemy, which means that offensive football is useless for Manchester City. Manchester City, who is good at defensive counterattacking, is the team that likes to play that kind of offensive football the most.
Since you cannot play offensive football, defensive counterattack becomes the only option.
Mourinho's Real Madrid met Manchester City in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, and they played defensively counterattacks.
So those two games were a contest between two teams that were good at defensive counterattacks.
Compared to his ability to face Barcelona, Manchester City played a bit awkward when facing Real Madrid.
In the end, they relied on Glory and Kaka's personal abilities to win this opponent.
The scores in both rounds were 2:1, and the gap was not big, which was completely different from the performance of beating Barcelona 3:0.
So if there are any tactics that can cause trouble for Manchester City now, then there may be only the tactics of defensive counterattack.
Moreover, this Bayern Munich does have the capital to play defensive counterattacks. Ribery and Robben are both fast, have super personal abilities, and have outstanding individual combat capabilities.
In front of him, Gomez, a tall and powerful center forward as an offensive fulcrum. With Thomas Mueller's flexible running and scoring ability, Bayern Munich does not need to invest too much force in the offense to threaten Manchester City's goal.
What everyone was surprised was that Van Gaal did not expect that in front of Bayern Munich's home court, he really dared to use such ugly tactics in front of such Bayern Munich fans...
Isn't he afraid of being booed by his fans?
If Bayern Munich wins the Champions League title in the end, it would be fine, nothing is a problem. His move may become a classic tactical showdown in the Champions League final and will be recorded in history.
But if he loses, this is evidence of Van Gaal's crime, which is the ironclad evidence of his willful and stubborn behavior. At that time, his arrangement will be scolded to death by media fans, and his status in Bayern Munich may be out of control.
Chapter completed!
