Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Barcelona was the capital of Catalonia, the richest region in Spain, before 1833. It is now the second largest city in Spain after Madrid and the largest seaport in Spain.  As a city dominated by tourism and service industries, football plays an important role in this city, and FC Barcelona, ??which is rooted in this city, is the business card of this city. Even the name Barcelona represents more than just  Limited to a football club, it plays an important role as an envoy in external relations and is also the standard for Catalans to fight against Spanish rule. However, even in terms of football alone, Barcelona is the most successful in Spain and even the world.  One of the clubs in the world, in addition to their 17 La Liga championships and the three major European Cups, Barcelona's beautiful playing style is also an important reason why they are famous around the world.  Barcelona under the leadership of Cruyff in 1994 was known as the dream team. However, after being defeated 4:0 by Italy's AC Milan in the Champions League final in 1994, Barcelona never recovered. The league once dropped to fifteenth place.  They lost their seats in the Champions League many times until Barcelona underwent major reforms in the summer of 2003. Laporta became the club's chairman, hired Dutch Rijkaard to come to the club as head coach, and bought Brazilian star Ronaldinho.  Barcelona began a renaissance and won La Liga last season.  In the Champions League, although Barcelona failed to reach the top eight last season, their style of play has become popular all over the world. When Chelsea and Liverpool were having a war of words these past two days, Mourinho also said that Liverpool did not deserve to win the Champions League trophy. Last year's strongest team  The team is Barcelona, ??and now, Barcelona has become the third favorite to win the championship after Chelsea and AC Milan.  After winning the La Liga championship, Barcelona's goal this season is more inclined to win the Champions League. In order to achieve this goal, any opponent standing in front of them must be destroyed. And now, the opponent standing in front of Barcelona has just arrived.  Spain's Serie A dark horse Fiorentina.  After the first round of the Champions League group stage, Fiorentina and Barcelona were tied with 3 points, but Fiorentina topped Barcelona with a goal difference advantage, and Barcelona only ranked second.  If you want to have an advantage in the knockout rounds after the group stage, getting first in the group is the only way. In addition to being first in the group, you can pick a weaker opponent. In the knockout rounds, the first place in the group also has the advantage of visiting first and then hosting. This pair has two rounds.  It is very important for the group stage.  Because if you play away from home first, you can give it a try. If you don't play well, you still have a chance to return to home. If you play well, you may solve the problem in one round. However, playing home and then away does not have this advantage.  Although Barcelona fans do not think highly of Fiorentina, there is no doubt that Fiorentina is the strongest opponent in Group C besides Barcelona, ??and it is also the only enemy that can threaten Barcelona's first place in the group. Therefore, Spanish fans are more hostile to Fiorentina than Werder Bremen.  and Panathinaikos Donon.  ¡°Florence clearly felt this hostility when they got off the plane from Barcelona Airport.  There were a lot of people picking up the airport. In addition to the local Italian and Chinese fans who came first, there were also a lot of Spanish fans. Of course, they were not here to welcome us, they were here to demonstrate.  "Welcome to Hell" "Prepare to die" "To lose the Italian Turtles" Spanish fans shouted slogans, waved Barcelona scarves, and wantonly provoked the Fiorentina players. Of course, the Fiorentina players would not pay attention to this provocation.  But the Fiorentina fans were not satisfied. They responded with a very tough attitude to the Spanish fans, not afraid at all because this was their opponent's territory.  The police in Barcelona were obviously not at ease with the Italian fans. They arranged a lot of police at the airport. Seeing that the fans from both sides were excited and a group fight might break out, the police came over quickly to separate the two fans and advised the Fiorentina players to get there as soon as possible.  Leave the airport and don't stay too long.  The Fiorentina players were not afraid to fight with Barcelona on the pitch, but they did not want to fight with the Barcelona fans before the game. They signed autographs and took photos with a few fans, and then quickly left the airport and rushed to the hotel they had booked.  After resting for two hours in the hotel, Fiorentina was ready to go to the Camp Nou to adapt to the venue, but was told that the stadium was being watered and training could not be done. If you wanted to train, you could go to the La Masia training base across from the stadium, which is also Barcelona's youth club.  Training base, people like Messi, Fabregas, Xavi, Puyol and others all came from this training camp.  Barcelona knew that Fiorentina would go to Camp Nou in the afternoon to adapt to the venue, but they watered it at this time, which was clearly to make things difficult for Fiorentina. This made Prandelli and the energetic Lucchesi who came with the team very angry, but there was nothing they could do.  , I could only take the team to La Masia for training. When I saw La Masia, which was like a farm, with only an ordinary two-story building and seven or eight stone houses, the players in Florence were very disappointed and very disappointed.  Angry, thinking that Barcelona deliberately gave him?A crude training ground.  ¡°Nah, this training base is not as good as ours, it¡¯s actually artificial turf.¡± Chen Yu said in surprise.  "Is this a trick for us? I don't believe Barcelona is training here," Montolivo said.  Fiore has played in La Liga and knows some Spanish, as well as Barcelona. He said: "La Masia means farm, but it's not to trick us. The Barcelona first team also trains here, and there are also many talents here.  For example, Xavi, Puyol and the now famous Messi. "The place where Barcelona's first team trains is adjacent to the place where youth teams at all levels train. When the players from Fiorentina came in, the players from the youth team were training.  The players took a few glances and couldn't help but be attracted by these young people, because their passing, receiving and dribbling were so beautiful and smooth that even the adult team couldn't do it.  Chen Yu said with some shock: "No wonder Barcelona can play so smoothly and cooperate so well. It turns out that the youth team is so good." Fiore smiled bitterly: "Passing is the essence of Barcelona. If you don't steal quickly or fiercely, they will  How can I put it this way, you know what kind of pain it is during the game. Coach Prandelli is also watching the training of the Barcelona youth team, and he looks at the players with a solemn face.  He said: "Did you see that the youth team passed the ball so beautifully? We must not give them space and the pressing must be fierce."  Otherwise, our defensive players would not be able to react at all, as their passes would be too fast.  "The players in Florence are observing these young people, and the young people in La Masia are also observing these "guests" from Italy, and they are still talking about them. "They are all very tall.  " "That's right, they are the leading team.  " "Which one is Chen Yu?  I heard it's great.  " "Just one with black hair and yellow skin, who else could there be?  " After a brief observation, the Fiorentina players began to conduct warm-up training. At this time, La Masia's young players began to rest. They all watched the Italian players' training through the barbed wire. If they were ordinary fans watching,  The Fiorentina players just warmed up casually. I just saw that the young players from La Masia have such excellent ball control and passing skills. The Fiorentina players did not dare to neglect. They worked very hard during training and even showed their best.  Fiorentina originally thought that its ability to deal with Barcelona would be applauded by the children of La Masia, but what it didn¡¯t expect was a round of ridicule.  The ball is really slow, and the Chinese guy is not very good either.  " "The running position is not good, and the movements are also clumsy.  " "I think our team can score them seven or eight goals.  " "I don't think they even touched the ball a few times.  " Being laughed at by a group of children hurt the self-esteem of the Fiorentina players. Tony spat at the next door, "What do you know? This is power football. Those of you who play tricks will show their true colors as soon as the game begins.  "Brocky also shouted: "Don't forget how your dream team lost in the 1994 Champions League final.  "The young La Masia players all burst out laughing, and one little guy shouted: "Who can't brag? How about we give it a try.  " "That's right, it's a mule or a horse leading it around.  "1 After the other little guy finished speaking, the young people in La Masia laughed. "Just fight, ask your coach for permission.  "Paccini was not very young, so he walked to the barbed wire and said angrily. "Paccini is fighting with the children, come back for training." Prandelli called Pacini back. Of course Florence can't fight with these children.  One game, because the players had just flown over from Italy, and the training was just a warm-up. Now they were not at Camp Nou. Prandelli trained for less than an hour and then returned to the hotel. In the hotel, Prandelli.  Li held a press conference with team deputy Dainelli. At the press conference, Prandelli was more low-key than when he was in Florence. He joked: "We are not afraid of Barcelona, ??anyway, only 1 players are playing.  , and their people also have two legs and one head, no different from us. Names like Barcelona and Ronaldinho sound loud, but we are the same as Inter Milan, Adriano, AC Milan and Scheffen  We have played against Chenco and there is no problem with our defenders.  Now I sleep well every night, and so do my players. This team can also be beaten, and we can be satisfied with a point away from home.  "Dainelli also said that they are ready, "Barcelona plays fantastic football. They are the favorites in the Champions League, but we play different football from them. We are more powerful and defend better. TheyI often beat my opponents in games, but I don¡¯t think that will happen in this game.  "
