That night, Louis II Stadium in Monaco was brightly lit and bright as daytime.

Although there were only nearly 20,000 fans in the stands, they still created a huge sound, allowing everyone who walked into the stadium to feel the tension of the Super Cup.

Barcelona plays against Bayern Munich, and Guardiola challenges Gao Han, which is undoubtedly the most attractive highlight in European football today.

Before the game, both teams kept a low profile, especially Barcelona, ​​which won the Champions League triple-winning Champions League.

In an interview with the media before the game, Guardiola said that he did not care much about the outcome of this game, but just regarded this game as an exam. He hoped to hand in the game with excellent results.

Gao Han even said that Barcelona is better than he imagined, and Bayern Munich's probability of winning is only 50%, and he needs every player to do his best.

"Everyone is looking forward to Gao Han and Guardiola's master-apprentice meeting."

"But what was a bit surprising is that just now, when the two teams entered the stadium for training, the two mentors with deep affection only shook hands at the exit of the player's passage, hugged eagerly and separated."

"Obviously, Gao Han and Guardiola know that fans around the world will stare at them, so they deliberately keep a certain distance before the game, which is also not to expose their friendship to the media.

"Now we have got the roster of two teams."

"First, let's take a look at Barcelona."

"The goalkeeper is Valdes, Abidal on the left of the defense line, Daniel Alves on the right, Puyol and Pique partner with the central defender, Busquets dragged behind, Xavi and Iniesta are in front, and three players form the inverted triangle midfielder."

"The trident in the front court is Henry on the left, Etoo in the middle, and young player Messi on the right."

"It should be said that Guardiola sent all the main players to play, and this game also showed his determination to deliver a satisfactory answer in front of his teacher Gao Han."

"Let's look at Bayern Munich."

"Gao Han also sent all the main players in this game, with goalkeeper Neuer, and the defense line from left to right are Marcelo, Hummels, Lucio and Ram."

"The three midfielders are Vidal, Schweinsteiger and Modric, and the tridents in the frontcourt are Ribery, Aguero and Robben. It should be said that Bayern Munich players are not as famous as Barcelona, ​​but judging from their performance last season, their strength is not inferior to La Liga giants."

"So, we have absolutely reason to believe that this will be a wonderful battle."

"This master-apprentice showdown has attracted the attention of fans around the world early on. We will broadcast live in more than 160 countries, which also set the highest ratings record in the European Super Cup history."

"Now both teams have returned to the locker room to prepare, and the game is about to begin."

There was a huge noise outside, but in the home team locker room at Stadium Louis II, every player in Barcelona seemed to be facing a big enemy.

The players were divided into two rows, each sitting in front of the closet, while Guardiola stood among them, with a solemn look on his face.

"I believe that I don't need to say much. Everyone knows that the opponents of this game are the strongest teams we have encountered in the past year. Their players all have excellent personal abilities. Their head coach is Gao Han, the top football player in today's football world. They have maintained a winning streak in the past year."

Barcelona lost in April, when they had already won the championship in the league early, so Guardiola played on the second team, but he lost the away game and never lost again.

In the past season, Barcelona has been in a state of unstoppable momentum, both in La Liga and in the Champions League. Even Ferguson's Manchester United failed to snipe them in the Champions League final, which also made every player full of confidence.

Each of them firmly believes that, as the outside media said, if there is a team in today's football world that can beat Gao Han and his Bayern Munich, it must be Guardiola and his Barcelona.

"I would like to remind everyone that our advantage is ball control, and ensuring ball control rate is the first thing we need to do. I know Gao Han very well. I know that he will do everything possible to destroy our ball control."

"But we must not be anxious. You must believe that Gao Han and his Barcelona are not invincible. They, like all teams, have serious flaws. It's just that they are good at playing their strengths in the game to cover up their flaws. What we have to do is to tear them apart and expose their flaws."

Guardiola said this and looked at Busquets.

Just now, he got the list of Bayern Munich and he saw Vidal.

Based on his understanding of Gao Han and the lineup style of Bayern Munich last season, he can judge that Gao Han's purpose of using Vidal was to press Busquets.

Busquets is the life gate of Barcelona. Guardiola knows that Gao Han knows it even more.

The player himself obviously understood this, so he looked up and looked at Guardiola's eyes with questions about asking for help. He hoped that the coach could tell him what he should do.

Guardiola wanted to remind him, but in the end he said nothing and just nodded to Busquets.

"You performed very well last season, Sergio, and go to play like you usually do, I believe you can do it."

At this point, there are really not many fancy things, it is a pure competition of strength.

And there is the concept.

Guardiola's Barcelona wants to control the ball and is good at controlling the ball. As long as they can control the ball, Bayern Munich will be dead.

…………

"I absolutely cannot let Barcelona control the ball smoothly. I want you to keep this in mind at all times."

In the visiting team's locker room, Gao Han reminded the players in a very serious tone.

"If Barcelona control the ball and we lose the ball, there is only one final result, and that is death!"

The eleven Bayern Munich players were all focused on the big enemy.

They are indeed good at passing and controlling, but if they want to play ball, they can't catch up with Barcelona.

This team has been playing ball control for decades, and all the players have been born for it.

"Barcelona's death is Busquets. This player is very young, just 20 years old. He has played for a season's main player. His stability remains to be tested. So, Arturo, your task is to keep him to death."

Vidal focused heavily, "I understand."

Bayern Munich's defensive weakness is on the left side, Marcelo and Hummels are both too young, while Barcelona against the right side is Messi and Alves, which is exactly the offensive channel of the La Liga giants, so the test is very serious.

It should be said that both teams have their own weaknesses and hidden dangers, it depends on who catches the opponent's death first and who scores the goal first.

"Bastian and Luca, you must get closer in this game. Xavi and Iniesta will leave it to you to see the defense, especially you, Bastian, always pay attention to returning to defense."

Schweinsteiger and Modric both focused on the key points.

"The combination of Marcelo, Messi and Alves is very complementary. Just like we have been practicing since last season to now, don't step on your feet easily, follow the opponent, keep in touch with your teammates, control their crosses on the wing, and leave it to your teammates."

Marcelo also nodded solemnly.

He knew very well that his side would definitely be the target of the opponent's focus on offense. If one was not handled well, he might become the team's number one sinner to lose.

"Remember, this game will be very difficult and there is no skill at all. Barcelona will definitely play and control the ball. They will catch the ball regardless of everything. We must catch the whole and use the overall coordinated combat to restrain their passes and controls. Once the ball is obtained, they will quickly transfer to the frontcourt as soon as possible."

"After the frontcourt player gets the ball, he takes the first principle of not losing the ball. After holding the ball, he organizes the attack. You must not be anxious or confused."

Gao Han said this and looked at every player present with an extremely confident look.

"You must believe me. As long as you compete in the way we arrange and practice before the game and do not make any mistakes, your opponent will not get any chance, and the final victory will belong to us."

Gao Han's words excited everyone present.

In the eyes of all Bayern Munich players, he is the unquestionable king.

"The two teams, led by the referee, walked into the stadium one after another."

"Just before this game, Barcelona announced that the team's top superstar Ronaldinho had transferred to AC Milan, and David Villa, the superstar of Atletico Madrid, who was originally appointed by Guardiola, failed to join, which led to Guardiola's only arrangement for Henry in this game."

"As for Bayern Munich, Van Bomel also transferred to AC Milan, and replaced it with Vidal."

"Look at the performance of both teams now."

"Bayern Munich was the first to kick off the ball."

With the referee's whistle, the highly anticipated European Super Cup finally kicked off.

Aguero, standing in the center circle, quickly kicked the ball to Robben, who passed it back to the defense line directly. Lucio was not in a hurry after getting the ball, but stopped at his feet and waited for Barcelona's forward Etoo to grab it, and then passed it to the right and handed it to Ram.

Ram dribbled the ball along the right side, but Henry came to defend immediately, and had no chance. He dunked and passed it back to Modric, and then passed it to Schweinsteiger, and then moved to the left side.

But Marcelo was pressed by Messi and passed it back to Hummels as soon as possible.

"Bayern Munich obviously doesn't want to give up the ball from the beginning, and now Barcelona is pressing very much."

"Hummels got the ball and moved to the right again and handed it to Ram."

"Ram's kick stopped well, led it forward, crossed the center line, and passed it to Robben."

"Robben took the ball with his back and had no chance, and then passed it back to Ram."

"Bayern Munich's right offensive was very active after the opening game, but Barcelona's pressing was also fierce."

"Ram has no chance, so I will return to the defense line."

"Lucio...Schweinsteiger, one shot and the right."

"Robben, stop the ball, beautiful spike, start the cut, pass the penalty area with his left foot."

"Have a chance!"

"Oh, Puyol reacted very quickly, blocked Ribery tightly, and headed the ball to clear the ball."

"Bayern Munich's attack this time is still very threatening. Robben has been very active this season. After stopping the ball, he made a fake move and deceived Abidal and then spiked the ball into the right side of the goal. The whole process was completed in one go."

"Bayern Munich's corner kick."

"This is also an offensive weapon that the Bundesliga giants are very good at, and Ribery will take the penalty."

"Let's look at this corner kick attack, send it out, land in the penalty area..."
