Chapter 930 Meeting in 723 days!
The topic of another miracle in Barcelona has been endless for a long time, but in addition, the media has also begun to pay attention to another team,
RB Leipzig!
This is the only remaining seedling of the Bundesliga.
It is hard to imagine that after Bayern Munich was out, the only seedling in the Bundesliga turned out to be this team that has only been founded for 11 years.
Yes, RB Leipzig founded the team in 2009, entered the Bundesliga stage in 2017, completed the league quadruple jump in eight years, and jumped to the top arena.
After being promoted to the top arena, RB Leipzig's performance is still good, and won the second place in the league, but failed to prove himself in the European arena, so he did not make a name for himself.
The following year was the era when they participated in the Champions League for the first time.
This year, RB Leipzig was divided into Group G, with Besiktas, Monaco and Porto.
The young RB Leipzig scored two wins, one draw, three losses and 7 points in the group stage, ranking third in the group and missed out.
At that time, the average age of this RB Leipzig team was only 23 years old, and it was a thorough youth army.
Young people have always been the center of the topic. If there is no accident, even if they fail to advance, they can still leave a certain influence by virtue of their performance.
But their luck was bad, and 2017 was destined to belong to the 'North London Youth Storm'.
Tottenham Hotspur, this is the craziest team of 2017.
Carrying the pride of the Premier League champions, they overcame all obstacles and met Real Madrid in the final.
In this battle of honor, they even relied on their tenacious offensive attitude to fight Real Madrid for 120 minutes, and finally won the UEFA Champions League with Yi Le's key penalty in the penalty shootout.
Yes, this is a total youth storm.
Compared with them, RB Leipzig pales in comparison.
Although RB Leipzig performed very well, they failed to prove themselves after all.
In the 2017-2018 season, they ranked sixth in the league and missed the Champions League.
In the 2018-2019 season, they made a comeback and met Tottenham Hotspur in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
This is a Tottenham Hotspur whose core has left. RB Leipzig feels that they have enough strength to win them, but in fact, even if the core Yi Le leaves, they still cannot win this game and miss the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
In three years, their only progress was from the group stage to the knockout stage.
After this game, the young players of RB Leipzig were even more undaunted. This may be the characteristics of young people, and they always maintain sufficient fighting spirit.
The time has come to 2019-2020.
This season's Champions League is enough to surprise.
On the stage of the semi-finals of the Champions League, the traditional giants have fallen into the sand. Only Barcelona and Manchester City are in the two seats, while in the upper half are Lyon and RB Leipzig.
Especially RB Leipzig, they stepped on Atletico Madrid to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League.
Nobody felt like their promotion was a matter of luck.
After all, facing a team like Atletico Madrid, the factor of luck is too small. In fact, this team has experienced four years of experience in the Champions League, and they are ready to change rapidly at any time.
And this year, they showed the most gorgeous gesture to the world.
Of course, RB Leipzig still has a long way to go to win the championship.
They need to beat Lyon in the top half to reach the Champions League final.
Even in the final, they have to face Barcelona or Manchester City, these two giants.
The topic of RB Leipzig is inspirational enough, but in terms of the intensity of the game, people still pay more attention to the second half.
Barcelona VS Manchester City.
These two teams have too many origins.
First, Guardiola faced his old master, and Messi faced his mentor.
The second: the duel between the two super midfielders in football.
Guardiola single-handedly created the dream three dynasties. He is the perfect head coach in the hearts of Barcelona fans. If he does not leave, he may always be in charge of Barcelona.
And under his guidance, what kind of future Barcelona will go to is also unknown.
In this regard, the media interviewed Guardiola.
In the interview, Guardiola said: "Barcelona's resilience has always existed, especially that crazy game, which is still fresh in my memory. Yi's performance made me feel very afraid. Although Messi's performance is also very good, Manchester City's main goal is Yi. This is an undoubted fact!"
"In the midfield, we have enough confidence, they have Yi, and we have De Bruyne, believe me, this is a wonderful midfield match."
"'Europhobia'?" Guardiola waved his hand and smiled: "That was a long time ago. Now De Bruyne is stronger. He has the support of the whole team. In this case, he has the qualifications to compete with Yi Le!"
De Bruyne's 'transphobia' has been a hot topic in the media.
Although this topic gradually disappeared with Yi Le's departure from the Premier League, it has regained its vitality at this time.
All fans who have witnessed Tottenham's miraculous season know that Yi Le killed all the midfielders in the Premier League that year.
Even someone as strong as De Bruyne was unilaterally suppressed by Yi Le, and even became a "transphobia" for a while, which became a topic that the media and fans talked about.
A few years have passed, and now, these two best midfielders in football meet again, what kind of sparks will burst out, this is worth everyone's expectations.
Faced with this topic, the media once again approached De Bruyne non-stop.
For this interview, De Bruyne did not have any resistance.
De Bruyne: "I was under a lot of pressure when I first came to the Premier League. I don't deny that Yi's performance broke me down at the time. I also feel sorry for him leaving the Premier League. After all, I haven't proved anything yet, but he has already set foot in other leagues. Over the years, I have been looking forward to the battle between us."
The reporter asked: "Have the two not faced each other for several seasons?"
De Bruyne nodded and said: "To be precise, it is 723 days. Since we belong to different leagues, the only chance for us to meet is in the European war, and every time in the European war, we always cannot meet."
The reporter said: "So, this is a reunion that lasted 723 days?"
De Bruyne smiled and said: "It should be a battle. In fact, I have never had a real confrontation with Yi. Every time, I can't overcome the fear in my heart, but this time, I will go all out. This is not only the semi-finals of the Champions League, but also a stage for me to prove myself."
After a pause, De Bruyne continued: "After this game, no matter what the result is, I want to invite him to dinner and exchange contact information. In fact, the relationship between us is under the hype of the media, but there is no friendship between us. However, I really hope to make this friend. His efforts will always inspire me, and we can make progress together."
The last sentence, De Bruyne said solemnly to the camera.
