Chapter 410 The Final Battle at the Top of Europe

"Brother Liu, are you ready?"

"Absolutely, the car is already downstairs."

Old Liu, carrying the camera equipment, was very frustrated.

They were all ready except for the host and reporter, Ma Fanshu.

But then Comrade Xiao Ma turned the tables and asked him the same question!

If it weren't for Xiao Ma having connections and being somewhat good-looking, Lao Liu would have almost lost his temper.

Everyone here works for CCTV, so why do some people act like divas just because they've gained a little fame?

Since Ma Fanshu co-hosted "World Football" with Duan Xuan, she has gained some fans and fame.

This girl is acting like a celebrity.

Although she was a decent person and didn't put on airs, she was subconsciously a little aloof.

In a sense, I'm the real employee, and you're the intern!

Forget it, I won't stoop to the level of a little girl.

Ma Fanshu was also a little anxious.

Today is the most important match day!

Lu Xiao made his first start for Atletico Madrid in the Champions League final!

The opponent is the mighty Real Madrid!

A month ago, Atletico Madrid, with their full squad, certainly wouldn't have been afraid of Real Madrid.

Atletico Madrid has repeatedly thrashed Real Madrid in La Liga. With their ironclad defense and Lu Xiao's unstoppable attack, they are a team in a class of their own.

However, being too perfect will arouse the jealousy of the heavens.

It's as if God is playing a cruel joke on us; the new version is trying to balance things out.

As a result, Atletico Madrid was nerfed in several version updates.

Godin, Gabi, and Kirk were all injured in succession.

Atletico Madrid has fallen from being the only T0 team to the T1 level, and its strength on paper is slightly weaker than Real Madrid's T0.5.

Both offense and defense have been nerfed.

Kirk and Gabi provided significant support to the attacking third, which made the defense significantly weaker.

In high-level competition, subtle changes can trigger huge variables.

Ma Fanshu couldn't help but worry about Lu Xiao.

The wins and losses of Atlético Madrid are none of the Chinese people's business.

But Lu Xiao is the only Chinese player in the Champions League.

His wins and losses captivated the hearts of hundreds of millions of people across the country! And drew the attention of nearly 10 billion people worldwide!

This was the pinnacle of world football in 2016!

Cristiano Ronaldo, the dominant force in football for 10 years

And new challengers, the builders of a new order in football.

Lu Xiao!

This important match is also a crucial part of the documentary series "Lu Xiao's Road to Champions" produced by "World Football".

The team had already filmed a lot of footage in the Champions League.

Today is the day to witness the birth of a new king!

Ma Fanshu didn't want anything to be imperfect.

With time running out, the team needed to conduct some brief interviews with passersby outside the San Siro stadium.

Ma Fanshu, who wore a completely "no-makeup" makeup look, made a special effort to create an exquisite appearance.

Wearing high heels, I hurried downstairs with the team.

We boarded a van and headed straight to the San Siro stadium.

"Driver, is it that congested?"

Gibberish, gibberish.

The Italian driver in the front row talked for a long time, turning the steering wheel with his left hand and making the classic Italian chicken claw gesture with his right, as if he was complaining about something.

The translator next to her looked embarrassed and couldn't translate directly to Ma Fanshu.

Because there wasn't much to say.

The driver waited downstairs at the hotel for a long time.

They had been notified in advance to go to the stadium early to avoid traffic jams and other issues.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the area around the stadium will definitely be completely congested.

This is the Champions League final!

Tourists and football fans from all over Europe and even the world flock to the tiny Italian city of Milan.

The number of visitors in one day is more than the total number of visitors at Milan Fashion Week.

With tremendous effort,

The CCTV5 team finally arrived at the plaza outside the San Siro stadium and, in a flustered but orderly manner, set up their cameras to prepare for the interview.

Ma Fanshu composed herself, adjusting her expression and posture.

Although she is not a professional field reporter, the station usually doesn't allow her to go out for interviews.

But Ma Fanshu kept saying that she and Lu Xiao had a very good relationship.

This gave me the valuable opportunity to travel to Italy on business.

Meanwhile, in the CCTV5 studio.

In the Champions Europe special program

Zhang Bin, a chubby man wearing glasses, was the host, and he and the guests on site had almost run out of things to talk about.

Football legends such as Shao Jiayi, Yang Chen, and Ma Ning sat on the sofa to comment on the upcoming Champions League final.

When it comes to the odds of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid winning, no one can say for sure.

Lu Xiao is indeed very strong.

But in everyone's impression, European football, especially Real Madrid, is too oppressive.

As a result, many people subconsciously believed that Real Madrid had a better chance of winning.

Yang Chen, a Bundesliga legend and former national team player, insists that Lu Xiao can lead Atletico Madrid to victory.

The debate was getting heated.

Zhang Bin quickly switched to an outdoor interview.

"Okay, let's put our topic aside for now and follow our reporter's perspective to see what the fans at the scene are predicting... Hello, Xiao Ma."

"Hello everyone, I am currently outside the San Siro stadium in Milan."

As you can see, the number of people who came to watch the Champions League final today is quite large, almost filling the entire square.

There were fans from Spain, Germany, and Italy at the event, and we also saw compatriots from our motherland who traveled thousands of miles to cheer for Lu Xiao.

The person next to me is a fan who flew in from China specifically to support Lu Xiao. Come say hello.

Several compatriots were so excited they were almost incoherent, expressing their support for Lu Xiao in front of the camera.

"Lu Shen is definitely going to win today! I predict 2-1!"

"With key players like Koke and Godin injured, Atletico Madrid is in a bit of danger. This will probably be Rodriguez's toughest final yet. I predict Rodriguez will score a last-minute winner, a narrow 1-0 victory over Real Madrid..."

Chinese fans who have traveled a long way are relatively cautious, and the impact of key players' absence on the game cannot be ignored.

In contrast, the Real Madrid fans interviewed later were much more arrogant.

These Real Madrid fans, dressed in white and singing and dancing, must have drunk a lot of beer; they were very noisy in front of the camera.

"3-0! We will complete our revenge!"

"I admit, Lu is an excellent player for Madrid, one of the best in the world, but with Atletico Madrid's key players absent, Real Madrid ultimately won the Champions League! 3-1!"

"4-0! Hala Madrid!!"

As the Spanish fans grew increasingly enthusiastic, more Chinese and German fans were also eyeing the situation.

The scene was a bit chaotic, so Ma Fanshu quickly cut off the signal and handed the camera over to the scene.

At this very moment, fans on the internet are already incredibly nervous.

Weibo, Baidu Tieba, Douban, Dongqiudi, Zhibo8, Hupu...

Almost every football-related community is bustling with activity right now, like it's Chinese New Year.

It's past 2:30 AM!

There are probably hundreds of millions of people still awake in the middle of the night.

"Are they all waiting for Lu Shen's match?"

"How could I possibly miss the final?"

"I'm so nervous, what should I do!"

"I haven't slept at all; I've been staying up until now."
