On the night of May 25, 2006. .
France, Paris, Saint-Denis.
An hour ago.
"Here we come, here we come! Look, it's the Inter Milan bus!" Hundreds of Inter Milan fans who had been waiting hard outside the Stade de France instantly became excited with the lights of the cars in the distance.
More and more Inter Milan fans gathered together, they held high the Inter Milan team flag and sang the Inter Milan team anthem loudly.
"Lionwell! It's Lionwell!"
After jumping over countless difficulties and obstacles, after nearly half a year of competition, Inter Milan is here.
Leon opened the car window, and he waved to the Inter Milan fans outside the window.
"Here we come! Paris!"
... "Leo, you will start today." Rijkaard said to the nervous Messi in the Barcelona dressing room.
Messi was in a daze. He couldn't believe that Rijkaard would arrange himself to start in such a major final.
"Hey, Leo, don't be nervous, don't worry, we are here!" Ronaldinho hugged Messi like a big brother, and Puyol, Xavi, Iniesta and others also came to take pictures Pat Messi on the shoulder.
With everyone's comfort, Messi felt relieved, "Am I going to start? It's incredible."
In the dressing room of Inter Milan, Mancini suddenly decided to use Fernando Morientes before the game. Before the battle, he chose the slightly surprising Morientes instead of the Italian striker Luca Toni.
"Fernando, we need your experience. You know Barcelona very well, so you will start today." Mancini's choice made Morientes, who had been sitting quietly listening to the song, suddenly clenched his fist.
"Yes, boss." The short answer can't hide Morientes' heart that has begun to boil. Knife, Morientes is no longer young, but he will start on behalf of Inter Milan in the Champions League final.
This is the arrangement of Robert Mancini, which is also the arrangement of fate.
... "It seems that both Barcelona and Inter Milan have brought us surprises! Inter Milan, Toni in their trident was replaced by Morientes. Before the game, Toni did not have any injuries. Mancini made this Is your choice tactical?" Palmertri told the audience all over Italy live on Sky Italia.
"Man, don't forget, Barcelona also used the teenager Messi, Rijkaard did not use Giuly, but Messi, this genius from Argentina will form a trident with Ronaldinho and Eto'o Halberd!" Although he has retired, Baggio still feels his blood rolling.
At the Stade de France, Barcelona fans and Inter Milan fans are fighting against each other. The scene of the Catalans being humiliated by Leonwell two years ago is still vivid. Two years later, in the new generation of Brazilian King Ronaldo Under the leadership of Dinho, the Catalan Lions returned to the top of the world.
Today, their opponent will be known as the world's most powerful team - Inter Milan.
Liverpool captain Gerrard entered the field wearing a suit and holding the big ear cup. Last year's champion Red Army Liverpool created the greatest myth of the Champions League in half a century in Constantinople.
At this moment, Stephen Gerrard quietly placed the Big Ears Cup on the Hall of Glory, and today's winner will be able to win back this trophy.
This is the glory that belongs to the king of Europe. In 2005, Liverpool proved itself in Istanbul. In 2004, Bayern Munich won the triple crown. In 2003, AC Milan was crowned invincible all the way. The fairy wins the championship... the runner-up will never be remembered, this is the cruelty of competitive sports.
Whoever can engrave his name on the Big Ears Cup will be the king of Europe this season!
... "Are you ready?" In the player channel of the Stade de France, the referee Massimo Busacca from Switzerland asked the players of the two teams standing behind him.
Both Zanetti and Puyol nodded, and Busacca, after confirming the time, began to indicate that the on-site staff could play music.
With the sound of the Champions League theme song, there was a deafening cheer at the Stade de France!
The players of Inter Milan and Barcelona set foot on the temple of the final together.
Leon smiled at Messi who had been looking at him, "Leo, come on."
Messi nodded timidly, and then he followed Ronaldinho in front of him to the other side.
Two of the best teams of the season finally come together, two parallel lines ushered in the moment they intersect.
... Adriano, Tevez, Morientes formed the trident of the Queen of Europe, Leonwell, Luis Figo, Esteban Cambiasso partnered in midfield, Javier Zanetti, Samuel, Cannavaro, and Maicon are lined up, Cesar sits at the gate, and the powerful Nerazzurri lineup is impeccable!
On the Barcelona side, Ronaldinho, Eto'o and Messi form the fangs and claws of the Catalan lions, while Harvey, Iniesta and Deco form the most powerful Catalan lions. Strong spine, defensive line, Van Bronthorst, Max, Puyol, and Belletti formed Barcelona's defensive line, and it was still Valdes who guarded the gate for Barcelona!
The starting lineups for both teams were surprising, but this was the choice of Rijkaard and Roberto Mancini.
The two young coaches of the Netherlands and Italy both made surprising decisions, and the results of the game will prove which of them made the more correct decision.
... Massimo Busacca, the referee from Switzerland is looking at his watch, he is waiting for the time of 7:30.
After the opening ceremony, the players of Inter Milan and Barcelona stood in their own half.
In the toss just now, Inter Milan won, so Barcelona won the kick-off.
Ronaldinho called Messi to the middle circle. He kept encouraging Messi, while Messi kept nodding.
Seeing this scene, Leon also smiled kindly. For Messi, he regarded Messi as his younger brother. Higuain, Messi, and Aguero can all be said to be his younger brothers.
At 7:30 Paris time, Massimo Busacca finally blew the whistle to start the game!
With Messi driving the ball to Ronaldinho's feet, the curtain of the 2005-2006 UEFA Champions League season began!
At the Stade de France, tens of thousands of fans greeted the start of the game with cheers!
Barcelona take the lead in attacking!
No probing.
Ronaldinho, the elf on the dancing court, used his samba dance steps to tease his national teammate Adriano who was pressing forward. Adriano was not annoyed, and he no longer responded. Instead of grabbing, he quickly ran to the frontcourt of the Brazilian team.
Inter Milan did not expect Adriano to steal the ball at all, and it was Adriano who should do it quickly.
Under the leadership of Lionwell, Inter Milan's defense stuck to Barcelona's offense like a ball of brown sugar.
Ronaldinho continued to move forward and then decisively passed back to Deco to organize. Barcelona's first attack ended without a problem.
Subsequently, Barcelona tried to attack again, but was still resolved by Inter Milan.
It wasn't until the third minute of the game that the climax of the game was set off by the young, immature, Argentine new golden boy Rio Messi!
Messi, who had been trying to relieve the tension in his chest by running in the frontcourt, suddenly received a through pass from Deco. Messi showed his physical instincts amidst the tension.
This is his physical instinct to practice stopping and smashing the ball 10,000 times a day.
The ball was stuck to the sole of his feet, and Messi got the ball on the left side of the frontcourt!
Maicon, the right back of Inter Milan, did not dare to neglect. He strode forward and tried to force Messi, but Messi was like a flea. Maicon's defense!
"Leo———————————————— Messi!!!"
Catalans are boiling!
Messi crossed Maicon and broke into the penalty area. Under Cannavaro's interference, Messi crossed the middle. Unfortunately, Eto'o's outflanking was a step slower, and Samuel took the lead to clear the ball.
"Hmm!" The Inter Milan and Barcelona fans at the scene exclaimed.
Eto'o held his head with regret, while Ronaldinho gave Messi a thumbs up.
At this time, Leon signaled his teammates to concentrate.
The immature little Messi finally got rid of the tension at the beginning. He felt the heat of his body, and he was very excited. Today, Messi is in great shape!
