Green Field Eunuch

Chapter 523 I have mastered your special skill
May 26th.

The streets of London have been filled with fans.

The new Wembley Stadium was surrounded by fans, and the parking lot was already congested by noon, forcing fans who drove there to wait in long lines.

When the time is almost up, fans will be able to enter the stadium with their tickets. Unlike regular league matches, they will be able to enter more than half an hour early for this game.

While the fans were entering the stadium, the two teams in the final, Manchester City and Bayern Munich, were already warming up inside.

Both teams were very focused during their warm-up.

Dan Yongzhuo was also seriously warming up and passing with his teammates. Although it was just passing back and forth, it was still quite pleasing to the eye to watch the football being passed so accurately.

Some fans who had already entered the stadium started chanting Shan Yongzhuo's name to cheer him on.

The stands were almost entirely filled with fans of both teams, with the cheers for Manchester City being the loudest. The voices supporting Shan Yongzhuo were the loudest, almost drowning out the voices supporting Bayern Munich. In terms of numbers, these neutral fans were almost on par with the German fans.

The players from both teams warming up on the field were quite envious: "Sure enough, Shan Yongzhuo's popularity is still top-notch, and no one can compare to him."

Shan Yongzhuo waved enthusiastically to the fans, which drew screams and cheers from the female fans in the stadium, causing him to miss the ball passed by Silva.

With a smile and a wave, Shan Yongzhu ran more than ten meters to chase the ball. When he reached the vicinity of the center circle, he happened to see Boateng warming up on the side.

The two looked at each other, and then they both smiled involuntarily.

Shan Yongzhu waved to Boateng and greeted him with a smile: "Jerome, good luck."

Boateng responded with, "You too."

The two had a pretty good relationship and could be considered to appreciate each other.

But actually.

At that moment, Boateng recalled the match between Bayern Munich and Manchester City last season, as well as some scenes of him being teammates with Shan Yongzhuo when he first joined Manchester City.

Boateng found that he would encounter Shan Yongzhuo every season.

The difference is that in the first year they were teammates, and in the following two years they were opponents, and both times they were in the Champions League final.

"Is this fate...?"

Boateng was somewhat helpless, but then he thought that Bayern was so strong now, the chances of them meeting Manchester City in the Champions League were actually not low.

His feelings toward Shan Yongzhuo were rather complicated. On the one hand, the two could indeed be considered friends, though they were only nodding acquaintances. On the other hand, he could not gain any advantage when fighting Shan Yongzhuo; he was always just a background character.

This is a bit embarrassing.

However, he also heard some rumors that Shan Yongzhuo might leave Manchester City next season and go to a small club in La Liga.

This is good news, as it at least guarantees that he won't be able to face Shan Yongzhuo for the entire next season.

Shan Yongzhuo was naturally unaware of Boateng's thoughts. After the warm-up, he even happily walked with Müller, and the two had a lively discussion.

"Shan, I think I've mastered your penalty area shooting technique!" Müller said happily to Shan Yongzhuo, eagerly sharing his achievement with his idol like a little fanboy.

Dan Yongzhu chuckled dryly: "Well, congratulations then. Keep it up, you'll definitely become the second best shooter after me."

"Thank you." Müller, thrilled to receive his idol's affirmation, was like a child who had just received candy. "You absolutely have to exchange jerseys with me after the match, please! This is my biggest request of the year!"

"Uh... okay..." Shan Yongzhuo felt like he'd been tricked. Muller left happily, inwardly giving himself a thumbs-up for his cleverness.

€5 acquired!

That's right, his goal was Shan Yongzhuo's jersey.

It's rare for him and Shan Yongzhuo to meet, especially since this is a Champions League final jersey, which has already been resold online for up to 50,000 euros.

Müller felt that he had gotten ahead of his teammates and made a promise with Shan Yongzhuo, which was a wonderful thing!

As for mastering Shan Yongzhuo's signature shot from the edge of the penalty area, Müller wasn't exaggerating. His shooting ability in that position had indeed improved rapidly through rigorous training, and he felt it was necessary to find an opportunity to showcase it to his idol during the match.

The warm-up ended quickly.

Wembley Stadium was now in a frenzy.

The 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League final is about to begin.

Bayern Munich kicked off first, launching their first wave of attacks against Manchester City.

Manchester City's formation also unfolded, and Shan Yongzhuo rushed towards Bayern's half, quickly meeting up with Boateng.

"Jerome, are you here to guard me?" Shan Yongzhuo greeted him with a smile, "That's really good."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Boateng felt as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.

What do you mean it's good that I'm defending against you?

You think so highly of Dante?
Feeling underestimated, Boateng perked up and began to mark Shan Yongzhuo closely.

Heynckes instructed him to focus on defending Shan Yongzhuo's receiving and shooting, and not to easily tackle him. He was to always mark him closely and not give him any space to shoot.

Boateng did the same.

However, in the first ten minutes, Bayern launched a fierce attack, catching Manchester City off guard.

In the past ten minutes, Bayern Munich had 65% possession, while Manchester City only had 35%.

However, both teams seemed a little cautious.

However, Bayern Munich was still able to suppress Manchester City. In their 4-2-3-1 formation, Javi Martinez was positioned relatively deep, while Schweinsteiger was positioned relatively far forward to organize and orchestrate the attack.

In addition, Bayern's two flanks are their strongest points. Not only are Robben and Ribery constantly attacking Manchester City's flanks, but Lahm and Alaba are also constantly pushing forward, causing Manchester City a lot of trouble.

Shan Yongzhuo, on the other hand, was completely stuck with Boateng.

Manchester City had a few rare counter-attacks, and Shan Yongzhuo got the ball twice, but he didn't have a chance. Boateng closely marked him, not giving Shan Yongzhuo a chance to shoot, but also not easily making a tackle. It wasn't so easy for him to use his skills.

Shan Yongzhuo did not use his skills easily, but tried to break through after receiving the ball. However, he was dispossessed twice by Boateng and Javi Martinez who came close to him.

"This is getting a bit tricky..."

Dan Yongzhuo lowered his head and began to think. It seemed that the best way to break the deadlock was to find an opportunity to use his Mighty Vajra Leg.
