  Chapter 769 The final begins

  Puskas Stadium reopened this year after renovations, and the first game hosted by the outside world was the Europa League final.

   This stadium, which can accommodate 90,000 spectators, is full of seats at this time.

  Although the Europa League final is not as appealing as the Champions League, it still attracts the enthusiasm of a large number of local fans.

   Prompted by the Arsenal game, the expectations of these fans are even greater.

   "Sky Sports Live, this is the Puskas Stadium, I'm Paul Merson!"

   "I'm Dixon!"

   "We will bring you the most professional and wonderful commentary here!"

  Paul Mowson's commentary almost relied on roaring, and the cheers on the scene filled the entire arena with a huge noise.

   Beneath the noise was the exciting pre-match tension.

"The UEFA Europa League this season has entered the final game. After a season of fighting, Arsenal from the Premier League and Celta Vigo from La Liga meet in the final. Both teams have never won the Europa League trophy. No matter which side wins the championship, they are making history!"

   "For Arsenal, they will meet a relatively unfamiliar opponent."

   "Celta Vigo is an absolute dark horse in this year's Europa League. They went all the way from the group stage to the Europa League final stage, and even beat Schalke 04 in the semi-finals. They played a wonderful game!"

"And their leading striker Aspers is also highly anticipated. In the league, Aspers has helped Celta score 19 goals. The hot state has continued to the Europa League. We expect them to have Even better performance!"

  Dixon immediately took over the conversation and shouted; "For Arsenal, this game is also an extremely important game!"

"Looking at the last season, Arsenal had a not-so-great season. They experienced many problems such as player departure and head coach retirement, but Arsenal still survived. Now Arsenal has completed After reorganization, under the guidance of Mourinho, a united and powerful Arsenal with Kay as the core is presented to us again!"

  "Arsenal currently has these two phenomenal shooters in the team."

  "Lukaku and Kai, these two players have scored more than 20 goals in the league, which also tells us from the side how fierce the offensive firepower of this Arsenal is!"

  "For Celta, they have to be careful about the rhythm change from Arsenal, they are very good at this sudden kick!"

  When the two commentators introduced the game, the cheers on the scene suddenly rose.

   Players from the two teams have already entered the arena to warm up.

  The camera directly caught Lucky.

   This is the treatment of a heavyweight star.

  Under the camera, Le Kai’s face is extremely relaxed. He covers his mouth and jokes with his teammates next to him from time to time, as if he doesn’t have any sense of tension.

  The black hair is meticulously combed into a side part. The hair is not long, but it is very stylish.

  Combined with the sharp-edged resolute face and the stubble on the chin, it gives people an extremely tough feeling.

  "Kay's performance is still extremely relaxed. After all, he has experienced the moment of winning the Champions League. As Arsenal's many champions, Kai's presence in the final is always amazing!"

  Paul Mowson finished speaking, Dixon nodded and said:

   "It was already two seasons ago that I took over the armband of Arsenal captain from Vermaelen. In these two seasons, Kay brought Arsenal a Champions League trophy and an FA Cup trophy."

  "He can be called a champion captain, and he also won the Champions League trophy for Arsenal for the first time, creating history!"

   "And today, they came to the stage of the Europa League final, can Kay win the Europa League trophy for Arsenal again? Let us wait and see!"

  The lens is aimed at both sides.

  The players on both sides are warming up under the leadership of the coaches.

   Celta's passing and shooting training is relatively loose.

  In contrast, Arsenal hardly touched the ball before warming up. After many basic warm-ups, they began to touch the ball.

  The camera moves between the players of both sides from time to time, which also increases the tense atmosphere of the final.

  The Arsenal and Celta fans at the scene cheered loudly.

   But the Arsenal fans obviously have the advantage, and their cheers are louder.

  Although it can't achieve the oppressive atmosphere at home, it is enough for the Gunners to hear their voices.

   Cheers and singing!

  Arsenal fans have never stopped for a moment, and their enthusiasm and fighting spirit are constantly being passed on to the Arsenal players.

  Finally, the warm-up was over, and the players from both sides returned to the locker room.

  The scene also ushered in the heat before the opening.

  Among the loud music, the trophy representing the UEFA Champions League appeared.

  The UEFA Europa League trophy is called the "Bertoni Trophy", but because the shape is too similar to a water bottle, many people are willing to call it the "water bottle cup".

  The trophy is made of silver with an octagonal shape, simple and capable overall, without any handle.

  Before the restructuring of the 09/10 season cup competition, UEFA regulations stipulated that after a club has won the championship for three consecutive times or a total of five times, they can permanently retain the trophy.

  But after the reformation, the champion of the Europa League can get a trophy replica for collection!

   After the club has won the championship for three consecutive times or a total of five times, they will receive a special mark certificate instead of the original trophy.

   Of course, this kind of regulation is not important to Arsenal and Celta Vigo.

   After all, the two teams currently do not even have a championship trophy.

   Maybe Serbia has hope, but Serbia has already been eliminated in the Champions League.

  After the trophy appeared, the atmosphere on the scene obviously became hotter.

  Everyone knows that after 90 minutes of the game, one club will win the trophy.

   This is also where they have worked hard for a season.

  Amidst the loud cheers, the starting players of both sides have changed their game jerseys and appeared in the player channel.

   Le Kai wore the captain's armband, held the team flag in his hand, and stood at the forefront.

  The caddies beside them turned their heads to look around from time to time, looking extremely curious.

  The players of the two teams looked solemn.

   They are all extremely dignified about the upcoming game.

  The starting lineups of both sides are as follows:

  Arsenal (4-2-3-1):

  Goalkeeper: Martinez.

  Defenders: Bellerin, Jimenez, Hummels, Robertson.

  Midfielders: Aubameyang, Kanter, Wilshere, Lucky, Mane.

  Forward: Lukaku.

   Celta Vigo (4-3-3):

  Goalkeeper: Alvarez.

  Defenders: Mario, Cabral, Roncaria, Castro.

  Midfielders: Daniel Voss, Radoya, Hernandez.

  Forwards: Aspers, Guedetti, Sisto.

   Both sides played with all their main forces.

  No injury is very good news for these two teams and even this final.

   Soon, under the leadership of the referee, players from both sides entered the arena through the arch.

  The cheers at the scene became more and more intense.

   After a brief group photo, the players from both sides shook hands.

  The captains of both sides were also called to the referee.

  The two captains exchange team flags and choose sides.

  Finally, the referees shook hands and ran to their respective halfs.

  Celta got the chance to attack first, while Arsenal chose the left half.

  After the captains of both sides came to their positions, Celta center Guedetti pressed the ball in the middle circle, waiting for the kick-off at any time.

  The tense atmosphere spread.

  The referee pressed the earphones to make the final confirmation, and then swung his right hand down and ran out of the middle circle.

  The sharp whistle sounded, and the game officially started.

  Broadcasters around the world are also making intense reports.

   "The 2016/2017 UEFA Europa League final match between Arsenal and Celta is starting!"

   "The game is on! The game is on!!"

   "The game has officially started, and the game that will determine the winner of the Europa League will give the answer after 90 minutes!"

  Among the opening remarks of many commentators, Celta took the lead in launching a sneak attack after the kick-off.

  Radoya suddenly kicked the ball to the front right wing, trying to find Aspas to connect.

  But Aspas had just taken a few steps, when a figure was thrust in front of him, and then he was stuck firmly in place.

  When the ball hit the ground, he failed to touch the ball.

   Celta Vigo's first sneak attack was easily resolved by the vigilant Arsenal.
