Chapter 876 Arrives in Munich

The day of the Champions League knockout round is getting closer, and the football atmosphere in Europe has become more intense.

As the top league in Europe, the UEFA Champions League includes the top five leagues and the top teams in major European leagues.

It can be said to be the top among the top!

The champions of each league and the top few gather together in the UEFA Champions League to compete for the final winner. For this reason, the intensity of the UEFA Champions League is also the top in the world.

As long as they enter the knockout stage, there will almost always be fierce confrontations between giants.

Just like Arsenal VS Bayern Munich in the Champions League Round of 16!

One has a strong performance in the Premier League, and the other is the uncrowned king of the Bundesliga.

When the two teams collide, it must be a fierce battle.

And recently, the state of the two teams is surprisingly good, so the result of the game is even more unpredictable.

Either Arsenal or Bayern Munich may win the game.

The major European media, commentators, and Internet celebrities are all predicting this game.

Some people support Arsenal, some people shout that Bayern must win!

They all came up with various data comparisons for this purpose, and even conducted some technical and tactical simulations.

But simulations are simulations, and the game is still based on reality. Before the final whistle blows, no one can predict the outcome of this game.

However, everyone firmly believes that this will be a match where sparks hit the earth!

February 14th is Valentine's Day in the West.

But Arsenal embarked on a journey to Munich, Germany on this day.

They will play Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena the next day.

For this reason, they set off one day in advance to warm up and step on the field in Munich.

Arsenal took a plane from London to Bavaria, Germany, where Munich is located. After a two-hour flight, the Arsenal team finally arrived at Munich Airport.

And when Arsenal walked out from the airport, the scene was already crowded with people.

Reporters from all over the world gathered here. Seeing the Arsenal players coming out, they pushed forward desperately. Fortunately, the security personnel stopped them, which allowed the Arsenal players to move forward smoothly.

But even so, these crazy reporters are still constantly attacking the cordon.

"Sir! Tell me about the prediction of the result of this game?"

"Arsenal played away in the first round, will this bring some passiveness to the Gunners?"

"Kay! What do you think about the upcoming game?"

"Giroud! Do you think you can score in this game?"

"Wilshire."

"Kanter."

The reporters kept stretching Mike forward, wanting to conduct interviews, even to get a few words.

But the Arsenal players moved forward in a low-key way, without any intention of answering questions at all.

After they walked out of the airport and took the bus, they immediately felt their ears cleared up.

"Phew~~~~ These reporters are really annoying enough!"

Wilshere couldn't help complaining: "Just now a reporter from the Berliner Zeitung almost punched Mike in my face. I suspect he wants to stuff Mike into my mouth!"

Hearing this, the Arsenal players roared with laughter.

Wilshere was also amused by himself.

"But this just proves our enthusiasm. As one of the best teams in the Champions League, we carry a lot of enthusiasm and expectations!"

Hummels turned his head to look at the city of Munich, his eyes full of memories.

As a player who came out of Bayern's youth training, although his career started in the Hornets, he still has a lot of memories here.

At that time, Hummels aimed to be on the Allianz Arena, but after so many years, he came to the Allianz Arena every time as an opponent.

While everyone was chatting, Lucy and Mourinho got on the bus one after the other.

Mourinho sat in front, Lucky held the chair in the front row, looked around, and shouted, "Is everyone here?"

"All here!"

Everyone shouted.

Lucky continued: "In a while, we will check into the hotel first, and after placing our luggage, we will gather downstairs to prepare for adaptation training."

Paused, Lucky looked at Wilshere and said, "I'll find a few people to follow Arteta to get the training clothes!"

Wilshere made an OK gesture.

Lucy just sat on the seat, and the bus drove away slowly.

About half an hour later, the bus arrived at the hotel where we stayed.

It is less than 20 minutes away from the Allianz Arena, so it is a relatively close home stadium.

The most important thing is that it is very close to the training ground.

After completing the check-in procedures, the Arsenal players went downstairs one after another.

And Le Kai, Wilshere, several players and assistant coaches brought the training clothes over.

Lucy pushed the trolley and stood in front of the bus to shout.

Everyone gets their training jersey before getting in the car!

Arsenal players boarded the car one after another, and Lucky also distributed training uniforms.

After distributing all the training uniforms, Lucky also boarded the bus.

The bus arrived at their training ground after a short drive of five minutes.

The training venue is located in the suburbs, and Arsenal did not disclose their training location.

But the media reporters with great powers have surrounded the entire training ground.

Finally, with the help of security personnel, the bus drove in.

Mourinho and other coaches negotiate with the club where the venue is located.

Le Kai and other players came to the locker room to change clothes and prepare for adaptive training.

The content of the training is very simple, basically focusing on ball feeling training and some simple coordination.

The training before the game will not be too intense.

Two hours plus a half-hour pre-match meeting, the day's training is over.

Back to the hotel again, the Arsenal players ate dinner one after another, and then went back to their room to rest.

Mourinho ordered the players to take a good rest and not to perform any other activities, including playing games.

For this reason, Mourinho even personally checked the players' suitcases, found some game consoles, and finally confiscated them all.

After returning to the room, the Arsenal players began to rest early.

Although some sharp whistles, horns and shouts sounded from time to time outside the window.

But they are immune to it and have various countermeasures.

Some people wear headphones, some use earplugs, some people are directly immune. Anyway, the players slept soundly.

And for a better rest, the Arsenal Hotel rooms are located on high floors, which reduces a lot of noise interference.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, Arsenal players got up one after another.

At 7 o'clock in the morning, Le Kai and others began to enter the restaurant one after another.

"Good morning!"

"I slept well yesterday!"

"They made a scene at two o'clock last night!"

"Have you been up?"

"No! I got up to go to the bathroom and saw those fans leave!"

"So, we still have to face a lot of interference in an away game one day in advance!"

The gunmen were chatting and eating breakfast.

Although there will be a Champions League knockout match tonight, there is not much tension on their faces.

Perhaps it is the victories that have boosted their self-confidence.

Even if the opponent is the powerful Bayern Munich, they still don't feel too much pressure.

And they also know very well that as long as they play enough, no team can beat themselves.

This is the confidence that Arsenal has accumulated in two consecutive seasons.

After breakfast, Mourinho had another one-hour meeting before leading the players to step on the field.

The so-called stepping on the field is to go to the away game (Allianz Arena) in advance for adaptive training, which is also the final adjustment before the game.

The Allianz Arena is huge and the stands are quiet.

But the expressions of the players became a little dignified.

In the evening, they will play the Champions League match against Bayern Munich in this stadium.

And this is Bayern's home court, which is not particularly friendly to Arsenal.

In this game, they can be regarded as a tie to win.

A draw in the away game is very important to them. In the home and away knockout matches of the strong dialogue, the draw in the away game often plays a decisive role.

Of course, it would be best if you can win directly.

But facing Bayern Munich today, Arsenal dare not make absolute guarantees.

After all, Bayern's current state is somewhat unexpectedly good.

Of course, Arsenal is not afraid!

Head-to-head!

Who is afraid of whom!

It means being tough and tough, whoever persuades loses!
