Football: Starting from being abandoned by Barcelona

At this moment, all major European media outlets are ready to broadcast the game live.

The anchors and commentators of various TV stations have already taken their places in the live broadcast rooms, ready to tell the live broadcast of the game at any time.

Reporters outside the stadium have also begun to interview the fans around the stadium, feeling the boiling atmosphere here on the spot.

"All the fans are here to support Galatasaray, right? What do you predict about the result of tonight's game??"

"Of course we fully support Galatasaray! With so many fans here to encourage us, the team will definitely beat Chelsea and we will definitely advance.!"

"Although Chelsea is very strong, as long as we play at our normal level, the home advantage will definitely allow us to win. I believe Galatasaray will definitely beat Chelsea.!"

"Tonight's game will definitely be very difficult, but as long as the players work hard, I still expect a winning result. Galatasaray must stay calm and we will definitely win.!"

"So what do you think of Chelsea? How good are they??"

"Chelsea should not be underestimated, but we have the strength to beat any opponent at home. I believe that as long as the players work together, we will definitely win!"

Li Lei followed his teammates through the roaring home fans and came to the locker room

""Boys!" Mourinho said,"I know it's difficult to play in such an away game, but I believe you have the ability to win.!"

"We must be well organized in defense and not take it lightly; we must seize opportunities decisively when attacking. As long as we stay focused enough, we can overcome all interference."

"Tonight, we will prove that Chelsea has the strength to beat strong opponents on any field. I hope you can play at your normal level and give the fans the best return.!"

"For the honor of the Blues, go and fight, boys!" Mourinho's tone was full of perseverance and determination when he said the last sentence.

""Yes, coach!" Everyone responded in unison, and then everyone walked out of the locker room again.

In the Telecom Stadium, before the game started, pieces of red smoke had already been ignited in the audience.

Galatasaray fans lit a large number of red fireworks, and the scene was suddenly filled with smoke, and thick red smoke billowed up, like a volcanic eruption.

They held up the team flag and shouted the team slogan, trying to create a warm atmosphere.

This undoubtedly caused some trouble for the referees, who were struggling to judge whether the smoke would affect the normal progress of the game.

Chelsea's players and coaching team also looked embarrassed, worried that the smoke would affect their performance.

The on-site staff were trying their best to clear the smoke, but the fans continued to ignite more flames.

In this way, they tried to disrupt the preparations of the visiting team and create a favorable environment for their own team.

In the Sky Sports live broadcast room, Keane and Jones were doing the commentary before the opening.

"Dear audience, I believe everyone has seen what you are watching."

"Galatasaray fans set off a large number of fireworks before the game started, and the scene was filled with red smoke, which seriously affected the normal progress of the game."

"Li Lei, who was immersed in the smoke, also showed a surprised expression."

"This is undoubtedly beyond the imagination of this newcomer. He may not have expected to face such a fierce atmosphere in the Champions League away game."

"The actions of the home team fans have undoubtedly crossed the line. Football is a fair competition and such behavior that disrupts the game should not be tolerated. This has brought great difficulties to the referee."

"But the players must stay focused. The smoke will certainly affect their vision, but as long as they remain calm, Chelsea still has the strength to win."

"Li Lei also needs to adjust his state as soon as possible and not let his surroundings affect his mentality."

"Chelsea's away trip is destined to be extraordinary. Let us wait and see whether they can show strong pressure resistance in such a difficult situation. This will be a real test."

"Okay, let's take a look at the starting lineups of both teams."

Galatasaray (4-2-3-1)

Goalkeeper: Fernando Muslera

Defenders: Baris Alper Yilmaz, Abdelkrim Badak, Victor Nelson, Kaan Ayhan

Midfielders: Lucas Torreira, Dries Mertens, Wilfried Zaha, Tanguy Ndombele, Krim Demirbay

Chelsea (4-2-3-1)

Goalkeeper: Petr Cech

The referee called the captains of the two teams to the middle and said seriously:"I hope that tonight's game can be conducted fairly and impartially and become a wonderful duel."

"As the referee, I will do my best to be fair and just."

"If there is a dispute, I hope the two captains will not get too excited and let me handle it, okay?"

The two captains nodded to show their understanding and agreement.

"Very good, football belongs to the whole of Europe, we will play a model game tonight"

"Go ahead, lead your teammates to complete a high-level competition, and communicate in the language of football."

"Let Europe see the best of Turkish and English players"

"Okay, you can start guessing the side of the coin!" The referee said, taking out a coin.

According to the rules of football matches, the captains of the home and away teams need to guess the coin before the game starts to decide whether to choose the goal or the kick-off right.

The two captains looked closely at the coin in the referee's hand, calculating in their hearts.

In such a knockout match, choosing the goal or the kick-off may affect the final result.

Galatasaray, as the captain of the home team, made the first choice:"We choose the left goal!"

After getting the consent of the visiting team Chelsea, the referee tossed the coin high up, then dropped it on the back of his hand and held it down.

"Then Chelsea gets the kick-off right." The referee announced.

Then Terry shook hands with the opponent and returned to his own half to make final adjustments.

Terry was seen standing on the field, doing simple preparations, and then re-tightening the captain's armband on his arm.

Then he clapped loudly and shouted to his teammates:"Hey! Guys! Cheer up, face difficulties and be sure to communicate and cheer loudly! Do you understand??"

"Captain! We will show our opponents what Chelsea is made of.!"

"Don't worry, Captain. The defense is absolutely solid. It all depends on our offense.!"

"I will do my best to fulfill my mission! For the glory of the Blues!"

"I can't wait! Come on, brothers, let's win!"

The morale of the crowd was obviously high, and they were all ready to give the opponent a warning.
