Hero of the Penalty Area

Chapter 255: The more gifts are the better (the second guarantee, ask for monthly pass!)

"It's only two days before the Champions League final this season. Let's see how the two teams are preparing for the match..."

"Both teams have won their respective league titles this season, which can be regarded as a showdown between real champions. So this season's Champions League, I believe it must be full of gold!"

"...After Naples reached the Champions League final, there were people who thought that Barcelona would easily win the championship, but now, it's not like that..."

"Both teams currently have no injuries and no players who have been absent due to red cards. However, there is not much news from Naples because they are still in closed training... I don't know if the heroes and fans have turned against each other before. It will have a bad influence on them. From the league, I don’t see it anyway..."

"Barcelona is in the right state now, they have a high probability of winning the championship. However, as a dark horse, Naples should not be underestimated. I think the two shooters will be the key players in this game. Chen Yingxiong and Messi are the best The battle for the best scorer has reached a fierce stage. Messi is currently leading by one goal, but anything can happen in the final... We have all seen the hero's scoring ability, and he has scored in Serie A. With thirty-eight balls, it's still quite scary!"

"I think it must be Real Madrid that is the most depressed now. Why? Because Real Madrid's law is in effect again-any team with Real Madrid players in the team can reach the final. This season, Naples signed Raul for free from Real Madrid. As a result, the team passed all the way and reached the final! Think of it again last season. The Inter Milan lineup that reached the final was Sneijder, and Bayern Munich had Robben...Before the season, Raul was the newest player of Real Madrid. The knock-outs replaced by the old alternation were released to Naples for free by the team. Unexpectedly, Raul ushered in the second spring of his career in Naples. He scored 18 goals in all competitions. , The team’s number one hero who qualified from the group of death..."

...

With the advent of the Champions League final, the atmosphere of the decisive battle has become stronger and stronger, and more and more TV stations have begun to produce special programs for the Champions League final.

Many fans also started counting down with their fingers.

The media began to enthusiastically hype the finals, breaking every place between Barcelona and Naples and analyzing it to the fans. The latest developments of the players of both teams are also the focus of media attention.

However, in general, there is less news from Naples than Barcelona. Who makes Barcelona the most powerful team in world football today and is in full swing? Moreover, Naples also implemented closed training, and the news that the media can find is pitiful. But it doesn't matter. In the eyes of the media, Naples has no secrets at all. After this season, many people know that Naples football basically relies on the performance of those players, especially Chen Yingxiong.

So the natural focus has changed from "How is the state of the Naples team" to "How is the state of Hero Chen".

How is Chen Yingxiong's status?

Many people think it's good.

Because he just scored four goals in the last two rounds of the league, helping Naples win the team's third Serie A championship in history, and also created a brand new Serie A single season with 38 goals. The scoring record, if you want to break this record, it is quite difficult.

But it is not without different voices. Their reason is that after Chen Yingxiong and Naples come back against each other, it may affect his performance in the Champions League final to some extent. After all, Barcelona is not comparable to today's Inter Milan and Juventus. Chen Yingxiong can score goals against Inter Milan and Juventus, does not mean that he will be able to continue this good state to the final against Barcelona.

It's just that these objections are relatively small, mainly from the Barcelona media.

This kind of partial voice is certainly ignored.

Anyway, everyone is waiting to see a good show at Wembley. Barcelona is in full swing, and Naples has suddenly emerged. The strength of these two teams is actually not weak. They also have players who are now in the limelight. Barcelona has Messi and Naples has Chen Hero.

Whether it is overall confrontation or individual confrontation, it is very interesting.

The media also specifically listed the 11 possible starters for Barcelona and Naples, and then compared the people in the same position one by one.

In the most critical comparison, it is naturally the contest between Messi and Chen Yingxiong.

It's just that the positions of the two people are actually different. Messi is not a center, at best a winger, and more often he is an offensive midfielder. And what about Chen Yingxiong? Standard center.

However, both of them are the team's scorers, and it is a "right match" by comparison.

This newspaper analyzed the specialties of Chen Yingxiong and Messi from multiple angles. Including passing, dribbling, speed, body, header, shooting, comprehensiveness... and many other aspects, in most places, Messi has beaten Chen Yingxiong, such as speed, dribbling, passing... In other places, it is similar to Chen Yingxiong, and even has a slight advantage. Chen Yingxiong beat Messi on the header and body.

The final total score, of course, is that Messi has completely exploded Chen Hero. However, the editor also added a sentence below: "This data is only for the integration of the individual technical scores of the two parties, and does not represent a real gap in the strength of the two. After all, the hero has only used six knockout matches when he missed six group matches. Scored ten goals, which is still very remarkable. I believe Messi will not be able to do such a performance..."

As the finals approached, the media began to compare the strengths and weaknesses of the two teams, and this newspaper was just one of them.

Based on the opinions of all parties, we can finally find that everyone is generally more optimistic about Barcelona. After all, Barcelona's overall is stronger than Naples, and the thickness of the bench is deeper than that of Naples, which can be enough to cope with many unexpected situations. In addition, in the personal strength of the players, Barcelona has the upper hand. In Naples, perhaps only Chen Yingxiong can be regarded as a giant player. Raul and Cassano used to be, and they are not anymore. Hamsik and Arshavin have never reached it. And everyone thinks that Naples only depends on hero Chen to win. Once hero Chen is in a bad state and has a little ups and downs, Naples will be finished.

What about Barcelona? They have Messi, Villa, Pedro, Xavi, Iniesta, Butzquez...These are all giants.

Naples can be crushed by the star pile alone.

Of course, just talking about the level of the stars seems to be what the pseudo-fans do. How can professional sports magazines and newspapers and TV shows come to the conclusion that Barcelona is more promising than Naples for this reason?

The most important reason, of course, has to sound professional-experience. Yes, Barcelona has much more experience in playing the Champions League finals than Naples. This experience is not only referring to the Champions League finals, but also to events such as the Club World Cup, the UEFA Champions League and the European Super Cup. This is very precious. Your wealth can come in handy at a critical moment.

What about Naples? Completely stunned, inexperienced, relying on momentum. Before the Champions League finals, they can still rely on this weapon, but once they reach the crucial finals, under heavy pressure, the momentum will not work, and experience is the most useful.

Lack of experience will definitely make Naples at a loss when faced with some unexpected situations. Whether it is a player or a head coach, there will be some low-level mistakes.

As long as Barcelona can exert enough pressure on Naples in the finals, Naples can make themselves chaotic. At that time, Barcelona can play normally and can completely win Naples.

It cannot be said that none of these media have seen Chen Yingxiong's state. They have seen too many examples of teams and players who played well before the finals, made it to the finals in one breath, and then behaved like sleepwalking in the finals.

Let me give you a very simple and famous example.

In the 1998 World Cup in France, the Brazilian national team performed very well before entering the finals. As the defending champions, their performance was impeccable and they are considered to be the biggest favorites to win the championship. Especially Ronaldo, at the peak of his career at the time, he was young, fast, strong, skilled, and subtle... He also scored a crucial goal in the semi-final against the Netherlands.

Everyone thinks Ronaldo is in such a good state, and the Brazilian team is also in good shape. It shouldn't be a problem to defeat the French team that stumbled and scored before reaching the finals in the final, right?

Where did you think of it? In the final, Ronaldo's performance was almost like sleepwalking, and his performance in the previous few games was like two people. No one knows why he became like this. Affected by him, the Brazilian team also played abnormally. The final 0:3 lost to the French team.

Was Ronaldo not brave before the final? Wasn't the Brazilian team awesome before the final? But it was not lost to France. Not to mention that the strength of Brazil is only stronger than that of France, but that the strength of Barcelona is far stronger than that of Naples. In that case, how could it be impossible for Naples to play abnormally in the final?

You know that the Champions League final is the stage that countless players dream of, but not everyone has the qualification and opportunity to stand on it. Once you stand up, your mentality will definitely change. It's impossible without a little pressure, maybe the pressure is still great.

If the pressure is too much, the players will naturally play abnormally...then then...

This is pretty self-explanatory.

Inexperienced Napoli players are more likely than Barcelona players to be over-stressed and play abnormally in the finals.

In all fairness, the analysis of these people is correct and objective.

Because any team encounters such a situation basically this result.

It's a pity that they analyzed everything, but ignored one thing, and didn't count it at all.

That is... Naples' strong desire for revenge against Barcelona!

It is this desire that supports Naples, allowing them to pass the death group, pass the defending champion, pass Manchester United, and finally appear at Wembley Stadium.

And the ghosts under the sword in Naples are all because they neglected this...

※※※

In London, the hotel where the Naples team stayed is not far from Wembley Stadium. If the weather is good, you can overlook the “bridge” of the new Wembley Stadium from the window-old Wembley. The iconic twin towers of the stadium are gone, and this "over-bridge vault" has become the new symbol of Wembley Stadium.

Chen Yingxiong and Cassano were allocated a room.

Now they are packing their luggage and taking out toiletries and other things from their suitcases.

Cassano saw Chen Yingxiong groping for a while from the suitcase, and then took out a bunch of towels from it... Uh, no, something wrapped in a towel.

Seeing Chen Yingxiong's cautious appearance, it seems to be quite important. His curiosity came.

"Hey, what is this, hero?"

Chen Yingxiong smiled without saying a word, and then pulled down the towel.

A shining little golden figure appeared in front of Cassano's eyes. He froze for a moment, then he spotted the bright spot, and then he laughed.

"What is this thing made of?"

"Iron sheet, gilded on the outside, but hollow, not too heavy."

"Are you going to get into the game?"

"Yes, Antonio." Chen Yingxiong nodded, "So, you still need your help in this matter. Of course, you are not enough alone. I even called for help."

"Who?"

As soon as Cassano's voice fell, there was a knock on the door.

He ran to open the door, and the person who appeared in front of him was...Arshavin.

"Another person to help is here!" Chen Yingxiong's voice sounded behind him.

Arshavin walked in and asked, "Hero, what do you want me to do?" As soon as he finished asking this, he saw what Chen Yingxiong was holding. Of course, he quickly discovered the bright spot. So he also smiled: "I know what you are going to do. It seems that you need someone to help."

Hero Chen nodded.

"I designed the action to celebrate the goal, but I can't play it alone. You must cooperate with me..."

...

When Chen Yingxiong danced, demonstrated in person, and showed the celebration movements to two people, Arshavin and Cassano were already laughing and rolling on the bed and couldn't get up.

"You are too cruel, hero!"

Cassano gave a thumbs up to Chen Yingxiong: "I really admire you, what are your minds thinking, hero!"

Chen Yingxiong smiled: "I am talented in slapping people in the face!"

After everyone laughed, Arshavin suddenly thought of a question: "Hero, you are not a celebratory gesture... Are you sure you can use all of them in the finals?"

Chen Yingxiong smiled: "Of course, I'm still worried that I'm ready. This is a gift for Barcelona. We Chinese pay attention to hospitality. We can't give our guests too shabby gifts. Of course, the more the better!"
