Football Winner

Istanbul is the imperial capital of Europe and was once the capital of the Roman, Eastern Roman and Ottoman Empires.

Because of this, Istanbul is a famous tourist city and the center of Turkey's economy, culture, finance, trade and transportation.

At the same time, this city is also the most densely populated city in the world. Perhaps it is not uncommon for a city with a population of tens of millions in China, but in Europe, a city with a population of tens of millions is quite rare, and Istanbul is such a city.

If it comes to football, then this city brings together the essence of the entire Turkish league, that is, the so-called league giants, Galatasaray, Fenerbahce and Besiktas three giants are located in this city, These three clubs have nearly 90 percent of the league titles.

The Istanbul derby is also the most popular derby in the world. Whenever the city is about to have a derby, for example, it has to enter a state of alert.

When it comes to the Champions League, several of Turkey's Champions League teams have always been known as the devil's home field, and their crazy progressive atmosphere can scare some timid players into weak legs.

Let's just say, in the Champions League, there is no team that players are willing to draw Turkey. For this reason, they would rather go to cold Russia.

But today, the city does not belong to any Turkish team, because this is the carnival of fans across Europe, the carnival of Cagliari and AC Milan fans.

In fact, before the 37th round of the Serie A, the traffic in Istanbul has skyrocketed. Although the city has never lacked tourists, in the next few days, more tourists entered the city than ever before.

Not to mention others, there are more than 100,000 tourists from Italy alone. No, they should not be called tourists. It is more accurate to use fans this time, and the number is still increasing.

Not to mention some neutral fans who came to witness the birth of the new king. Of course, fans from far away Asia and China must be indispensable at this time. You must know that this is the first time a Chinese has appeared in the Champions League final.

Although this Chinese is a bit special, not a player but a head coach, this does not affect the enthusiasm of Chinese fans. As early as the moment Cagliari defeated PSV Eindhoven and entered the final, qualified Chinese fans began to plan before To come to the finals, even many unconditional fans have created conditions and are willing to spend a few months of their wages to come.

There is no doubt that the upcoming Champions League final is of historic significance for Chinese fans, because they are no longer just bystanders, but real participants.

This is directly reflected in the moment Cagliari players walk out of the airport,

When Li Yi led the goal out of Ataturk Airport, Cagliari was greeted by hundreds of fans, most of whom were of the same skin color as Li Yi.

It is said that Istanbul Airport is called Ataturk, and the final venue a day later is also named after Ataturk. Both the stadium and the airport are named after the founding father of Turkey.

The venue for the final is called Ataturk Olympic. This stadium does not belong to the stadiums of several giants in Turkey. It is a stadium built to bid for the Olympic Games. It is the largest stadium in Turkey and a five-star stadium in Europe.

Although Cagliari's players have become accustomed to their coaches being more popular than the players, they are still envious every time they see them, especially the young players in the team.

However, without Li Yi to say hello to the fans, AC Milan followed suit. Although the two teams were in different cities, they both stepped on the plane and arrived at the same time.

At this time, the players in Cagliari realized that there was a group of fans standing not far away, but they were waving red and black flags, and even the flags of various countries.

In fact, there are also flags of various countries in Cagliari, but other flags are easily covered by a touch of red, the five-star red flag.

Sparks are flying everywhere. If it is in the form of animation, there must be sparks of current between the two teams at this moment, including the two head coaches.

Although Li Yi and Ancelotti have a good relationship, and although the two don't spend much time together, they are not alienated from each other. Whenever they fight each other, the two will meet to finish dinner together.

In fact, this time is no exception, but it is not a meal together. The winner of the game must lead the team to celebrate, and the loser of the game will naturally find food to heal.

Turkey is an uncompromising food kingdom. Turkish cuisine is known as one of the three major cuisines in the world, alongside Chinese and French cuisines.

And this time, the loser will be reimbursed for all consumption by the winner.

They were speechless. Because of each other's appearance, neither of them stayed at the airport. Under the escort of the airport security, they each embarked on the bus to the hotel.

Today is destined to be a busy day. The coaching staff needs to discuss tactics, while the players need to recover from training, and until tomorrow there will be the problem of adapting to the venue and attending the pre-match interview arranged by UEFA.

The Champions League final is not just a final, but also a show. Of course, this show means that you have to follow the arrangements of UEFA outside the stadium.

Besides, there is no chance for others to show off.

After the problem of food and clothing at the hotel at noon, Li Yi took the coaching staff to discuss tactics, while the players rested and digested their results to prepare for the public training in the afternoon.

Even if it is public, it has almost no real effect. The main purpose of this training is to let the media take pictures and let the fans see what the players look like on the training ground.

When the show is almost over, the club will clear the field, and then the real training will follow, and Cagliari spent the first day of his arrival in this situation.

On the second day, Cagliari and AC Milan each had half a day to go to the Ataturk Olympic Stadium to adapt to the venue, which naturally was chased by the media.

One day later, the flow of people in Istanbul reached its peak, because tomorrow is the final, and at this time, everyone who should be there has arrived.

For example, Bellucci and his two children. After all, this is the first UEFA Champions League final in Li Yi’s coaching career.

In order to allow Bellucci and the two children to come to the present, Li Yi specially asked the club for a VIP room. As the final team, there must be an allocation in this regard.

In fact, in addition to Corleone, Li Yi's uncle and aunt's family came with Bellucci. Naturally, Li Yi's uncle would not miss this important moment.
