The Prince of Inter Milan starts with Brother Xiaosa

Chapter 351 Four consecutive championships!
"Add sugar and milk!"

"Hahaha, I knew it. Your taste hasn't changed after so many years."

After training that day, Bell was called to his home by Leo.

At this time, there were only two of them in Leo's villa.

Leo first went to the kitchen and used a Moka pot to brew a pot of fragrant coffee.

Bell took the steaming latte coffee from Leo's hand and muttered something in a daze.

"Yeah, many years."

In 2007, Leo was loaned to Tottenham Hotspur by Inter Milan. At that time, the two young men, who were less than years old, formed a deep friendship.

In the blink of an eye, five or six years have passed, and they can all be considered to have achieved something.

However, when Bell joined the Nerazzurri, the relationship between the two did not seem to get better.

If they are drawn together in the semi-final draw, at least there will be a guarantee that there will be a team from La Liga in the final.

Both of these statistics have actually declined slightly compared to last season. This is because other teammates performed better.

"How to say?"

It's hard to say whether it was influenced by his agent Barnett. Anyway, Bell himself feels a little uncomfortable now.

Bell has 13 goals and six assists, Neymar has 15 goals and three assists, and other players such as Lewandowski, Coutinho, Lucas Moura and other players also have goals and assists.

Although the Welshman may be a bit reserved in character, he is definitely not the type who is willing to live under others for a long time.

"And I heard that Ronaldo may come next season. Will I still have a place then?"

But in recent times, some subtle changes seem to have taken place.

But I still hope to go to a team where I can fully display my talents. "

In particular, Ancelotti's tactical adjustments made Inter Milan's games more enjoyable than before, which is deeply loved by fans.

Bell shook his head, then leaned back on the soft backrest of the sofa.

In the last three rounds of Serie A, Inter Milan defeated Lazio 2-0 at home, Genoa 1-0 away, and Udinese 4-1 at home, ending their winning streak!
The 2012-13 Serie A season has come to an end, with defending champion Inter Milan winning the title with an unbeaten record.

Does this still make sense? Leo was suddenly speechless.

Leo:? ? ?
Does this mean he feels wronged by playing at Inter Milan?
"Didn't I say that I won't participate in the selection of the Ballon d'Or in the future? If you are willing, I can pass the ball to you more and help you improve your statistics..."

Juventus, Naples, and AC Milan are ranked second, third, and fourth in the standings. They will also represent Serie A and Inter Milan in the Champions League next season.

Or Neymar and others, their palms and backs are full of flesh, I don’t want to embarrass you. "

"I felt a little confused during this period. My agent suggested that I change my environment to develop. I didn't know whether I should listen to him or not."

For example, Balotelli scored 26 league goals this season, second only to Cavani who scored 29 goals and won the Serie A Silver Boot.

As long as he is at Inter Milan, the one who attracts the most attention will always be Leo, and then the media and fans will notice Bale, Balotelli, and Neymar.

Leo has basically played 37 times in the league this season, scoring a total of 18 goals and 44 assists.

"Gareth, I have always regarded you as a good friend, and I also think that the two of us have always cooperated well on the court and got along well off the court.

"Leo, I am different from you. You are the flag of Inter Milan. Now when we talk about Inter Milan, the first thing that comes to mind is you.

On May 2013, 5, the 25th UEFA Champions League final kicked off at Wembley Stadium in London.
This is also the fourth consecutive year that Inter Milan, which has won three consecutive championships, has appeared in the Champions League final.

The Nerazzurri no longer rely solely on the performance of individual players, but more blossoms.

This season has come to an end for other teams, but Inter Milan still has the last two and two extremely important games waiting for them.

Now that it was all said and done, Leo knew that he had no choice but to persuade him, so he silently patted Bell on the shoulder.

Well now, the Champions League final has nothing to do with Spain.

I admit that I am quite happy living here.

As he spoke, Bell showed a forced smile on his face.

The team atmosphere is harmonious, the teammates are all excellent, and the club staff are also very professional.

"I know, but the question is, if Balotelli wants to fight, do you help me or him?

But this time we meet again, whether Inter Milan will reproduce the original result or Bayern Munich will take revenge. Everyone is looking forward to it.

"Look, is that what happened?
After coming to Inter Milan, I also won many championships. Although team honors are very satisfying, I want to start pursuing individual awards next. "

"Okay, then make your decision according to your own heart."

Inter Milan eliminated Real Madrid and entered the Champions League final. On the other hand, Bayern Munich even defeated Barcelona with a total score of 7-0 in two rounds and successfully advanced!
It's too late for the Spanish media to regret it now. At the beginning, they were still dreaming about the beauty of Real Madrid and Barcelona meeting in the final.

Can I know what is the reason? "

The two sat in the living room and had an awkward silence for a moment before Leo took the initiative to speak.

Bell shook his head and interrupted Leo.

Just like four years ago, Bayern and Inter met in the final.

This did not match his ambition, and Bell wanted to go further.

……

Both sides copied the main lineups used in the last round of their respective leagues in today's game, and both teams' starting lineups were 4, 2, 3, 1.

For Inter Milan, unfortunately Neymar, who was injured after the last round of the league, did not make it to the final.

Balotelli advanced forward as a lone forward, with Gareth Bale and Coutinho on the wings.

Leo is the attacking midfielder, Modric and De Rossi are in the midfield.

Left back David Thornton, right back Srna, Thiago Silva and Bonucci partnered with center back and goalkeeper Handanovic.

Bayern's lineup is intact, but Schweinsteiger was tackled by Mandzukic during the pre-match warm-up. His ankle injury was examined by the team doctor, but he continued to play after being iced.

This is the milestone game of "Little Pig"'s 300th appearance for Bayern.

Forwards Mandzukic, Franck Ribery and Robben flew together on the wings.

Thomas Muller is in the attacking midfielder position, with Bastian Schweinsteiger and Harvey Martinez partnering as a double defensive midfielder.

The left back is Alaba, the right back is captain Lahm, the center back combination is Dante and Boateng, and the goalkeeper is Neuer.

Coach Heynckes has played in the Champions League three times as a coach and reached the finals twice. In the 1997-98 season, he led Real Madrid to win the championship.

Earlier in the 1978-79 season, Heynckes led the team to win the UEFA Cup when coaching Monchengladbach.

Thirty-four years have passed since he first won the European Championship.

In the 1980 UEFA Cup final, Borussia Monchengladbach, coached by Jupp Heynckes at the time, missed the championship due to fewer away goals than Frankfurt.

That was also the only civil war between a Bundesliga team in a European final.

The 68-year-old Bayern coach also became the fourth oldest coach to appear in the Champions League final.

After the end of this season, Heynckes will leave and Guardiola will take over as Bayern coach.

Therefore, today's game is also the coach's "last dance" at Bayern.

All Bayern fans hope that Heynckes can successfully end this journey with a treble.

But the opponent in the final was Inter Milan, who had won three consecutive Champions Leagues in recent years and defeated them many times.

For Bayern, Inter Milan is like an evil devil waiting for them to defeat.

A brief opening ceremony was held at Wembley Stadium before the game, and then the captains of the two teams exchanged team flags and shook hands with the referee.

Over the years, Leo has long been accustomed to big scenes. As the captain of the Nerazzurri, he guessed the coin and chose to attack from left to right in the first half.

The right to take the lead in the first half was naturally given to Bayern.

The referee of this Champions League final is Damir Skomina from Slovenia.

With the referee's whistle, the game officially begins!
At the beginning of the game, the two teams launched a crazy attack, with extremely fast transitions between offense and defense.

Coutinho made a breakthrough pass from the right, and Balotelli shot sideways in front of the small penalty area, but Neuer flew to block the baseline!

Ribery got rid of Srna's marking on the left wing and sent a direct pass. Mandzukic's powerful long-range shot from the front of the penalty area went over the crossbar!
Leo passed the ball, and Coutinho's hook shot from the right side of the penalty area was blocked by Boateng. Then Inter Milan took a tactical corner kick, and De Rossi's long shot from outside the penalty area hit the goal post hard and bounced out!

Robben dribbled the ball from the right and was blocked. Under the interference of David Thornton, he reluctantly started to pass and shoot, but Handanovic easily picked it off.

The Spanish defensive player Javi Martinez, who appeared in the midfielder position today, was given a death order by the head coach before the game, that is, everyone should keep an eye on Leo.

How can I put it, after the opening, Leo was indeed a little uncomfortable being closely guarded by Martinez.

However, after ten minutes of the game, Leo had basically adapted to the opponent's defensive intensity.

De Rossi steals the ball from the backcourt, and Modric quickly hands the ball to Leo in front of him!

As soon as Leo got the ball, Martinez came forward again.

This time Leo did not hesitate to turn around and try to break through. Bayern's midfielder did not lose his position and accurately blocked Leo's breakthrough angle.

We have reached the Champions League final, and we can finally let Leo perform well.

With the corners of his mouth raised, Leo kept his feet and suddenly lifted the ball over the opponent's head, then accelerated again and forced it past Martinez!

"Catch the ball! Leo broke through to the arc of the penalty area and is already within his shooting range!"

Looking up, Neuer stood calmly in front of the goal line. If Leo easily kicked off, he would have given the ball to his opponent.

At this time we can only see if the tacit understanding is enough!

Leo passed the ball straight into the penalty area without looking at anyone!

"Mistake in the pass? Good shot! Balotelli got rid of the defense and crossed into the penalty area to follow up with a powerful low shot!
The ball went in!
Faced with a shot that was close at hand, Neuer failed to react in time and did not make a save in time! "

One to zero!

Inter Milan took the lead in breaking the deadlock on the field!

Balotelli's number of goals in this Champions League has also reached 12 goals, tying him with Cristiano Ronaldo, who ranks first on the scorer list!
The camera just happened to find Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo sitting in the front row watching the Champions League final.

After taking the lead, the Nerazzurri continued to launch a fierce attack on Bayern's goal.

David Thornton made an inverted triangle pass from near the baseline on the left. Balotelli's shot in front of the goal hit Dante's leg and changed slightly. Neuer flew over and lifted the ball over the crossbar!

Then Leo passed the ball straight again, Coutinho passed offside from the right and Modric pushed forward to the penalty spot but Bayern goalkeeper Neuer fell to the ground and blocked the baseline!

In the 19th minute, Leo sent a through ball in a counterattack. Bell's left-footed volley from outside the penalty area was blocked by Neuer with a sideways dive!

Two minutes later, Srna passed a curve ball from the right side of the penalty area. Balotelli volleyed into the far corner and was confiscated by Neuer bravely!

Inter Milan's series of extremely threatening attacks failed to break through Neuer's ten fingers.

The outstanding performance of the German goalkeeper helped Bayern keep hope of equalizing the score.

In the 26th minute, Ribery dribbled continuously from the left and made a pass from the left side of the penalty area!
Mandzukic's diving header from behind was hit by Handanovic's fingertips and hit the top edge of the crossbar and popped out of the baseline!

Bastian Schweinsteiger took a corner kick from the right, and Martinez's unmarked header in front of the goal went high.

Dante then fouled Modric, interrupting Inter Milan's quick counterattack.

Slovenian referee Skomina showed the first yellow card of the game.

Muller passed the ball to the right in the frontcourt, and Robben accelerated and cut inward to form a single opportunity on the right side of the penalty area!
However, the Dutchman's left-footed shot in front of the goal was blocked by Handanovic in time!
Bayern missed the closest chance to score since the start of the game.

Leo's long pass went over the heads of Bayern's defenders, and Boateng was injured while competing with Balotelli for the spot.

The referee stopped the game, and Boateng limped off the field to the sidelines for examination by the team doctor.

Fortunately, it was nothing serious and he was back on the field soon.

Inter Milan started to press aggressively in the frontcourt, and Alaba made a mistake and lost the ball after being pressed.

Leo passed the ball directly to the right side of the penalty area. Coutinho deftly dribbled the ball past the slow-moving Boateng. A push shot from a small angle was blocked by Neuer with his leg!

In the 37th minute, Robben's cross from the right side of the penalty area was blocked by Thiago Silva.

The Dutch took a corner kick, Muller nodded the ball before and then rubbed it. Mandzukic followed up a step too slowly and missed the ball and missed the far post.

In the 42nd minute, Ram stepped in from the right to assist and shot into the penalty area and over the crossbar.

In half-time stoppage time, Robben stopped the ball with his chest in the penalty area. Before the ball hit the ground, his left-footed volley shot was saved by Handanovic subconsciously.

At the end of the first half, Inter Milan temporarily led the opponent 1-0.

"A one-goal lead is too precarious. In the second half, we must strengthen our offense to find better scoring opportunities."

After the start of the second half, neither side made any substitutions. Boateng continued to play despite his injury.

In the 49th minute, Boateng was hit on the chin again during a fight with Balotelli.

Heynckes glanced at Van Buyten, the only substitute defender on the bench, and after thinking about it, he still had no intention of substituting.

Robben took a corner kick from the right and Martinez headed the ball over. Mandzukic in front of the goal failed to hit the ball due to interference from Bonucci. Handanovic easily confiscated the ball.

In the 57th minute, Robben switched positions to the left to launch an offensive!

Ribery cut into the penalty area and made a wonderful pass. Robben reversed the offside and waded past the attacking Handanovic to pass!

Bonucci's clearance was not far away, and Mandzukic seized the opportunity to push into the empty goal with his left foot!

One to one!

Bayern equalized the score!
Although it was Mandzukic who scored the goal, the opportunity was actually created by the offensive combination of "Roberg".

The game was now in suspense again, and the pressure on Inter Milan's players increased greatly.

In the 60th minute, Inter Milan took the lead in making substitutions.

When Bell saw that he was the player to be replaced, a trace of confusion and dissatisfaction flashed across his face.

Today is the Champions League final. No matter what he has in mind, it should not affect his performance on the field.

However, Wales' performance after the start of the game was difficult to satisfy Ancelotti.

An Pang will not spoil him and will directly replace him with Lewandowski!
Inter Milan's striker has also changed accordingly.

Coutinho returned to the left, Balotelli to the right, and Lewandowski in the center.

To be honest, this offensive line training ground does not appear very often. This time it was also an unexpected situation. Ancelotti made a bold attempt.

Less than ten minutes after Bayern equalized the score, the Nerazzurri's substitutions had an effect.

Leo passed the ball after breaking through the encirclement of Bastian Schweinsteiger and Martinez, and Lewandowski leaned on Boateng to knock back.

Balotelli's left-footed low shot from the right was blocked by Neuer as he fell to the ground, and Coutinho followed up with a follow-up shot into the net!
Two to one!

Inter Milan takes the lead again!
Inter Milan then strengthened its defense, and the two teams fell into a stalemate.

In the 89th minute, Ribery responded with a long back-heel pass from the backcourt and hit the opponent's player. However, Robben got the ball and forced his way out of the double-team of two defensive players. He faced the goalkeeper and pushed his left foot into the far corner of the goal and succeeded!

Two to two!
Bayern equalized the score near the end of the game!

The game entered stoppage time, and Bayern had no use for even one substitution.

Bayern fans were still criticizing coach Heynckes for not making substitutions and adjustments as soon as possible.

Now that overtime is about to begin, they begin to praise the old coach for his experience and composure.

In the third minute of stoppage time, Gustavo and Gomez had just come on as substitutes for Mandzukic and Ribery.

Just when everyone was sure that overtime was going to be played, Leo winked at Balotelli.

Thomas Muller got the ball in the center circle, and Leo suddenly stepped forward and successfully intercepted the ball!
Inter Milan launches a counterattack on the spot!

In the 94th minute, the referee Skomina was already checking his watch frequently and might end the second half of the game at any time.

Inter Milan has the opportunity to kill the game!

Leo passed three people in a row and reached the edge of Bayern's penalty area. The opponent's goalkeeper Neuer decisively abandoned the goal and attacked!

Of course, Leo could have tricked Neuer with a lob, but when he saw that Balotelli had followed his command and followed him, he cleverly tapped his heel!
After receiving the ball, Bashen walked to the sideline of the penalty area and pushed the empty goal into the net!

Three to two!
The game is over!

Inter Milan completed the victory!
