Chapter 584: When gods fight, mortals stay away!
In the 32nd round of the Bundesliga, Bayern defeated Bielefeld 2-0.
Su Dong assisted Ribery to score in the first half, and then Ribery assisted Podolski to score in the second half.
Although they had won the championship in advance, the Allianz Arena was still packed.
All Bayern fans are well aware that the team is preparing for the Champions League final, especially in terms of physical reserves.
…
A week later, in the 33rd round of the Bundesliga, Bayern faced Hertha Berlin.
Just three minutes into the game, Ribery assisted Su Dong to score a goal.
In the 27th minute, Schweinsteiger made a straight pass and Su Dong scored again.
In the 33rd minute, Ribery scored again.
In the 61st minute of the second half, Klose assisted Su Dong to score a hat trick.
In the final stages of the game, Klose also scored a goal.
In the end, Bayern defeated Hertha Berlin 5-0.
…
In the final match of the Bundesliga, Bayern will challenge Duisburg away.
In preparation for the upcoming Champions League final, Heynckes saved his energy for the game and none of the main players played.
In the end, Bayern defeated Duisburg 3-2 away from home.
Podolski scored twice in the first half, scoring two goals for Bayern. Together with Van Bommel's goal, the team led 3-0, but Duisburg scored two goals in the second half.
In the end, Bayern defeated Duisburg 3-2.
After this game, the Bundesliga season is over.
Bayern, Werder Bremen and Schalke 04 ranked in the top three, followed by Hamburg and Wolfsburg.
Nuremberg, Rostock and Duisburg were relegated.
The Yellow Bees Dortmund are ranked 13th in the Bundesliga this season, with very poor results, and a change of coach is a foregone conclusion.
After the last game, Bayern immediately set off from Munich to Moscow, Russia.
…………
…………
Moscow, Russia.
Manchester United have just arrived in Moscow on a flight.
Many media and fans had already rushed to the airport to welcome the Red Devils.
All the Manchester United players were dressed in formal attire, uniform black suits, ties, leather shoes, and dragging suitcases. They did not look like players at all, but rather like a company team-building or group outing.
Manchester United players were very happy to see the media reporters and fans. They waved at them from afar with bright smiles.
A group of people appeared one after another, and when Cristiano Ronaldo appeared, the atmosphere on the scene was pushed to its peak.
With his outstanding performance in the past two seasons, especially helping the team win the Champions League last season and winning the FIFA World Player of the Year and the European Ballon d'Or this season, the Portuguese has gone from being a World Cup sinner to a Manchester United hero.
Some people say that professional players are born hangers, which is true.
Except for a very few with ugly postures, most of them have healthy and fit bodies.
Cristiano Ronaldo is very handsome and looks very energetic in a suit. He really has the feeling of a domineering president, which made the media and fans at the scene scream.
Many people couldn't help but rush over and surround them.
There were security personnel on the scene to maintain order, but they were unable to withstand the media's incitement and the enthusiasm of the fans.
Finally, Manchester United arranged for the Portuguese to give a brief interview on the spot.
Regarding the upcoming Champions League final, Ronaldo expressed confidence that Manchester United is ready.
"In terms of preparation, we have an advantage over Bayern because we have ten days to prepare, while their last game is only three days away from the final." Ronnie smiled and said that Manchester United is full of confidence in the final.
The last round of the Premier League is on May 10th, eleven days away from the final.
The Portuguese also revealed that the curse of defending the Champions League final has been broken and Manchester United is confident of successfully defending the title this season.
"Yes, Bayern is a very good team, but we will show in the final that we are better with our performance and quality."
The last time the two sides met in the Champions League final was in 1999. That year, Manchester United miraculously defeated Bayern with a last-minute comeback, won the Champions League and achieved the Treble.
Now, the two teams meet again in the Champions League final. Ronnie said that Manchester United today is completely different from what it was in 1999.
"We are obviously stronger now. Whether it is strength or overall performance, we are better than before."
The Portuguese said that in this game, Manchester United will not reverse at the last minute like in 1999. On the contrary, "we will show our level from the beginning, we will dominate and control the game."
Some German media stated that after the 1999 Champions League final, Manchester United and Bayern met four times in the Champions League, with Bayern's record being two wins and two draws, remaining unbeaten.
In response, Ronnie smiled and refuted.
"I just saw a rebuttal to what you said in the Times. That was seven or eight years ago. If you really want to compare, you might as well look at the Champions League results in recent years. That should be more convincing."
In the Champions League results in recent years, Bayern is absolutely at a disadvantage, which is why the Bundesliga team is ranked in the second tier, because their results in recent years are really not impressive.
Ronnie's aggressive attitude somewhat depressed the German media present at the scene, but what he said was indeed irrefutable.
Bayern's performance in recent years has indeed been unsatisfactory.
So the reporter from Munich Evening News quickly asked another question.
"Su?" When mentioning Su Dong, Ronnie's tone obviously changed and his smile became kinder. "There is no doubt that we are best friends. He has given me a lot of help. But unfortunately, we now represent different teams. We must go all out to defeat our opponents. This is our professional ethics."
"If you ask me, the most threatening player in Bayern, it is undoubtedly Su Dong. He is the most incredible talent I have ever seen. If we want to beat Bayern, we must stop him from scoring goals. In this regard, we are stronger than other teams because we have Ferdinand and Vidic."
These two central defenders of Manchester United can be said to be the best performing central defenders in European football this season. What's more rare is that they are both excellent in terms of height, strength, defensive awareness, and ball control.
Before coming to Moscow, Ferguson revealed to the media that Manchester United was not afraid of Su Dongbo.
The confidence comes from two world-class central defenders.
"Suarez will be the player that gives us the most headaches, but this final will only belong to us Manchester United. I will help Manchester United beat Bayern in the final." Ronnie said confidently.
He always looks like he is sure of winning.
When the media asked the last question, hoping that Ronaldo would speak to Su Dong from a distance, the Portuguese not only did not refuse, but was quite happy. He thought about it and spoke immediately.
"Su, this is our first match, but unfortunately, you are bound to lose!"
"Don't worry, after the game, you can use my shoulder to cry!"
"Also, I have prepared a gift to compensate you. After you lose the Champions League final, I will invite you to watch the European Cup!"
After saying that, Ronnie waved his hand and walked away gracefully.

Su Dong heard this interview from a reporter from the Munich Evening News when he arrived in Moscow.
The specific text and photo reports will not be posted on the Internet until the evening and will not appear in newspapers until tomorrow, but they leaked it to Su Dong in advance. The reason was simple: they hoped Su Dong would respond to it.
But what could Su Dong say? Talking nonsense has never been his strong point, especially when it comes to "criticizing" his best friend.
"Pepe, how about you help me respond?" Su Dong looked at Pepe beside him and said with a smile.
The Portuguese central defender waved his hands vigorously, "Let's not do that. You two gods are fighting, so don't bring trouble to a mortal like me. I helped you here, but when I get to the national team, he will definitely kill me, right?"
Su Dong forgot that this guy is a member of the Portuguese national team.
In Su Dong's impression, he always thought that Pepe was a Brazilian.
Sometimes it’s really strange to say that players like Pepe and Deco still consider themselves Brazilians. They even return to Brazil during holidays, but they play for the Portugal national team.
If you ask yourself honestly, Su Dong really can't get over this kind of thing.
This is not a question of whether China recognizes dual citizenship. Putting aside other things, Su Dong just can't say anything based on what he said when he took the oath of citizenship.
He loves that mysterious land so deeply! ...
Su Dong did not give a response in the end.
It’s not that he was afraid, but he really didn’t know what to say.
In addition, before the game, Bayern also hoped that the players would keep a low profile and not engage in too much verbal battles with the opponent.
Judging from the cards, Bayern is indeed at a disadvantage and does not have much advantage.
Manchester United has many famous European players, not to mention the front trident. Ronaldo, Rooney and Tevez, which one of them is not a famous European star?
Bayern has Sudon, Ribery and Robben, who are also well-known European stars, but in terms of quality, they are still slightly behind. After all, these players from Manchester United just won the Champions League last season and are very popular now.
Not to mention the midfield. Schweinsteiger changed his career and played in the middle, Modric has not yet fully proved himself, and Mascherano is quite strong, but unfortunately he is a defensive player.
On the other hand, Manchester United has Hargreaves, Carrick, Scholes, Giggs, Fletcher... who is not a member of the Champions League? This is even more true for the defense. The central defenders formed by Vidic and Ferdinand are the best in the world. Lucio and Pepe still need to work harder, especially in terms of stability.
Not to mention that Marcelo's defense on Bayern's left side is really worrying. This will definitely become Manchester United's focus of attack and the key to whether Bayern can win this game.
Heynckes has put a lot of effort into defending the left side, and even considered letting Lahm come back to play on the left side and let Sagnol return to the starting position, but ultimately rejected this plan.
Sagnol's condition is really worrying.
In midfield and defense, Bayern is not as good as Manchester United, but it is on the front line that Su Dong gives Bayern the advantage.
Even against Manchester United's double Footballer of the Year!
