Chapter 130 Heading to Spain
Chapter 910 Rushing to Spain
On April 14, the entire Arsenal team arrived in Barcelona, Spain.
Inside the airport, reporters and onlookers crowded the venue.
Spanish journalists wore triumphant smiles and asked pointed questions.
"Excuse me, how do Arsenal want to face being behind by a big score at home?"
"Do you have any specific tactics for this game? Can you reveal them?"
"Arsenal was eliminated by Barcelona last time. If they are eliminated this time, will it cause huge internal turmoil for Arsenal?"
Mourinho was annoyed by all the weird questions from reporters.
If it were before, Mourinho might have spat in the opponent's face.
But after so many years, even if the madman is arrogant, he has learned to be restrained and will not be as arrogant and arrogant as before.
But faced with this group of reporters who were chasing away like flies, Mourinho still shouted loudly: "Get out!"
Amidst Mourinho's roar, the scene fell silent briefly.
Soon there was an even more intense chase.
Their greetings to Mourinho also changed from euphemistic to direct.
Some people even swore directly, while Mourinho and the entire Arsenal team walked straight forward under the leadership of airport security personnel.
After they got on the bus, it finally became quiet.
"These guys are really annoying! It's like they've already won!"
The honest Kanter was also a little angry.
The second round hasn’t even started yet, and everyone is showing off their power, how arrogant!
The same goes for other Arsenal players.
After landing in Barcelona, they were full of anger.
At this time, they can only hold it in and wait until tomorrow to release it properly.
Mourinho's mood quickly stabilized. He greeted the driver, and the bus slowly drove towards the hotel where he was staying.
Along the way, Barcelona fans celebrating could be seen from time to time along the street.
Based on the big victory in the previous round, every Barcelona fan at this time seemed extremely excited, as if they had already qualified for promotion.
Of course, the score of 1:4 in the first round is really difficult to reverse.
But it’s not entirely impossible!
As long as Arsenal can be more stable and look for the opponent's weaknesses, they have a chance.
After arriving at the hotel smoothly and completing the check-in procedures, the gunners took the bus to the training venue.
The content of the afternoon training was very simple, but while they were training, the Barcelona team song that kept ringing around the field made them feel extremely irritated.
Barcelona fans are using this method to disturb Arsenal players.
Of course, some paparazzi reporters also appeared one after another.
Security personnel at the training ground have caught three paparazzi jumping over the wall to take secret photos.
There are more reporters waiting outside.
Even though Arsenal made it clear that they would not accept interviews of any nature, these guys still seemed unwilling to give up.
In this environment, Arsenal also hastily ended the training and left.
Back at the hotel, the Arsenal players changed rooms at Mourinho's request.
They came to a higher floor, which can isolate a certain amount of noise. Even if the effect is not great, it has a somewhat easing effect.
This day feels like a torment for the Arsenal players.
The targeting and ridicule of the entire city of Barcelona made them extremely angry.
Even some radical Barcelona fans used pictures of artillery exploding to describe Arsenal.
Before the game was over, these guys started taunting each other.
The next day, the Arsenal players got up.
The quality of sleep at night was not good. For this reason, Mourinho arranged his trip to the field in the morning, preparing to let the players catch up on their sleep and restore their energy in the afternoon.
The game doesn't start until 7pm, so they have plenty of time to adjust.
Sure enough, when they stepped on the field, the Arsenal players were yawning all over the place, obviously not having a good rest.
Even Lucky looked a little sleepy.
"I don't know which bastard he was, but he played the drums all night in Luoxia last night!"
Giroud complained while yawning.
Lucky also rubbed his eyes and sighed; "After all, it's an away game. Let's take a rest and catch up on some sleep in the afternoon."
After hearing this, the expressions of the team members softened a little.
The morning session was basically jogging + some short passing training.
This training was supposed to last for an hour, but it ended in less than half an hour.
After returning to the hotel, Mourinho asked the players to rest immediately.
Lucky and others also returned to the room, closed the curtains, and began to catch up on their sleep.
I slept until 3pm and finally regained a lot of energy.
The players got up one after another. After getting up, they all chose to take a shower to wake themselves up quickly.
Sure enough, after taking a nap, my head became much clearer.
Next, the coaches distribute game equipment.
Everyone collected their equipment and stuffed it into their equipment bags. At 5 p.m., the bus arrived at the hotel again.
Arsenal players walked to the Nou Cap Stadium under the leadership of Mourinho.
In two hours, they will play the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals!
"This is the Spanish National Television! I am the commentator Lor."
"In two hours, the second round of the Champions League quarter-final between Barcelona and Arsenal will begin!"
"In the last round, Barcelona won 4:1 at Arsenal's home. Arsenal's away game will become more difficult if they lose at home!"
"Many Barcelona fans are sure that they have won the qualification and have even started celebrating. If there are no major surprises, they can indeed beat this 'Arsenal' with Barcelona's performance!"
Lor finally emphasized the word 'Arsenal', but his expression was full of ridicule.
Aren't you Arsenal known as the strongest Champions League team this season?
Didn't you beat Paris Saint-Germain, Dortmund, and Bayern Munich in succession?
Aren't you invincible?
What about now?
Didn't you fail at home?
Every time he thought of this, commentator Lor felt secretly refreshed.
He originally looked down on the self-promotional model of the Premier League teams.
After winning two games, they were praised as invincible. Wouldn't they be exposed immediately when they met the La Liga teams?
If Lol had the same idea, Barcelona fans would also be smiling.
Many of them said that the game was over in the last round.
On the other hand, the Premier League media looked solemn.
The Premier League teams left in the Champions League today are Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool.
Among them, Manchester City and Arsenal performed very poorly in the quarter-finals.
On the other hand, Liverpool's performance in the lower half was extremely eye-catching, and it was getting better and better.
Many people think that Arsenal and Manchester City are showing fatigue, which is largely dragged down by the fierce league schedule.
After all, the two teams are also in a fierce battle for points at this moment.
No one dares to lose!
No one dares to lose points!
Once points are lost, it means that the situation has changed.
It can be said that any draw and win in the Premier League today will determine the change in the ranking of these two teams.
On the other hand, Liverpool does not have this kind of pressure, so while ensuring the Champions League qualification, they will put more experience in the Champions League.
It is basically impossible for Liverpool to win the league.
The points gap is too big.
Even if they win all the next games, it is not easy to achieve the goal of turning the situation around.
Arsenal is the first to play the second round.
And Arsenal itself is not in good condition.
Wilshere and Ramsey are injured.
Mane was suspended for a red card.
In the absence of the three main players, who will start for Arsenal in this game has become a problem.
Mourinho is a cautious character, but the thoughts of a madman are unpredictable, so many people are also looking forward to Arsenal's changes.
In addition, can Arsenal keep their mentality and make a comeback away from home?
Although it is an extremely difficult thing to contribute to the Camp Nou, it is not completely impossible if Arsenal is in a crazy state.
Barcelona wants to advance easily.
Arsenal wants to make a comeback.
Bathed in such an atmosphere, the war is about to start!
