Because it is close to London, Paris Saint-Germain did not arrive in London until noon the day before.

After checking in the hotel, the team took a short rest and went to Wembley Stadium to get familiar with the game venue under the arrangement of UEFA.

Gao Han is more familiar with Wembley Stadium than everyone in the competition. During his coaching at Manchester City, he led the team to play in this stadium for many finals, and Paris Saint-Germain was also prepared more fully and arranged more calmly.

As the teams in the Champions League final arrived in London, the security in the UK also increased.

According to AFP, both the French and British governments have received reliable information, and some suspects are planning bomb attacks on the Champions League finals, especially in areas with dense fans, which has made the whole of Europe feel nervous.

The British government also came forward and said that it would do its best to ensure the orderly progress of the Champions League final. They have basically locked in the suspects, but they are not completely sure about the time and location, but they promised to be fully alert.

Threatened by terrorist attacks, Paris Saint-Germain's every move after arriving in London was closely protected. Familiar with the venue training, the venue was cleared throughout the whole process, and no one was allowed to enter or get close to it.

Fortunately, under strict protection, the potential threat of the terrorist attack did not affect the preparations of Paris Saint-Germain players, and the training of the familiar venue was carried out in an orderly manner.

It was sunset and dusk after the training. The team left Wembley Stadium under the leadership of Zidane and other assistants and returned to the hotel. Gao Han, accompanied by UEFA officials, went to attend the pre-match press conference and UEFA official dinner.

When Gao Han arrived at the venue, many protesters gathered outside to protest, mainly protesting that UEFA had handed over the hosting rights of the U21 European Youth Championship to Israel, and many protesters also raised banners at the scene.

Gao Han has long been accustomed to such a scene, as long as the scene is maintained order.

"We just received a notice from the London police that a group of extreme Catalan fans had a fierce conflict with the fans of Paris Saint-Germain after arriving in London, and the scene was out of control."

After receiving Gao Han, the UEFA official was in charge of the reception, the two walked quickly to the venue and said with a little depressed expression.

Before the Champions League final every year, off-court news always occupies the news page.

In European football, the influence of professional football is everywhere in every corner of society and is deeply rooted. Countless fans regard it as a belief and try every means to kill their opponents. Off-field conflicts are constantly banned.

"Is anyone injured?" Gao Han had long been accustomed to this.

Not to mention the Champions League final, even in the French Cup final not long ago, local fans in Paris had clashes with Bordeaux fans, but the Paris police controlled it well and did not cause bloody conflicts.

"Three fans were injured and have been properly treated. It's no big deal, mainly due to some iron sticks."

Gao Han was slightly surprised, then shook his head and smiled bitterly.

This kind of focus event with large-scale fans gathering often has a huge test of the security and police force of the host city.

"In addition, we have issued the notice to the team and will come to Wembley Stadium in advance tomorrow afternoon. We will hold an international superstar veteran game in the afternoon as a warm-up event. At that time, legendary superstars including Van der Sar, Figo, Cannavaro, McManaman and other legendary superstars will attend and fight."

Gao Han had already received this news before. This was a special arrangement by UEFA and a special event for this year's Champions League final. A total of 24 retired legendary stars were invited to participate.

"Wait a minute you can see them at the official dinner."

After hearing this, Gao Han happened to come to the press conference hall, nodded, and pushed open the door and entered the backcourt.

…………

The entire Champions League final has been well-established and the time has been planned in an orderly manner.

Not long after Gao Han arrived at the venue, Barcelona coach Biranova ended his pre-match press conference.

This year, the winter in Europe comes and goes late. Although it is late May, they usually wear long-sleeved autumn clothes.

However, he obviously wore more than Ranova. He was wearing a thick black suit and a gray scarf. His face looked a little pale, and he also gave people a feeling of not being energetic enough.

For more than half a year, he has been traveling between Spain and the United States, traveling back and forth to treat his parotid cancer. Judging from his outfit, his body should not have fully recovered and is relatively weak.

"Hey, Tito."

As soon as Gao Han saw Biranova, he immediately met him.

Although the two have never agreed, as Guardiola's assistant, Biranova is no stranger to Gao Han.

"How is it?" Gao Han was concerned about Biranova's condition.

Biranova smiled and nodded, "It's basically nothing serious, but my body is a little weak."

It can be heard that everything went smoothly in his treatment in New York, USA.

This also made Gao Han very happy for Bilanova, and also wished him to recover as soon as possible.

Biranova was also ready to fight the Champions League final, saying that she could not wait to let Gao Han be more careful.

Gao Han smiled and said that he would not show mercy to Lanova's men.

…………

…………

Like all pre-match press conferences, the process of pre-Champions League finals is similar.

Gao Han was the first to announce the 18-man competition roster. Except for Yaya Toure who was suspended for accumulating yellow cards, all other players who should be selected were basically selected.

Gao Han expressed regret for Yaya Toure's missed the Champions League final, because Yaya Toure is one of the most important players in the team's midfield, but he believes that Paris Saint-Germain has enough bench thickness to fill the gap left by Yaya Toure well and will not have much impact on the game.

"For me, Wembley Stadium has always been a place that can bring good luck. When I was coaching the Premier League, I have commanded games on this stadium a lot. When I returned to Wembley Stadium again, I gave me a very strong and familiar feeling."

"This is a football game that does not require mobilization. Being able to reach the final is the best motivation for professional players. I believe that my players will give their all in the game and we can laugh to the end."

Regarding Barcelona, ​​the opponent in this final, Gao Han said that the team is still very strong.

"In the past two years, many people have been talking about Barcelona, ​​thinking that they have begun to decline and leave the peak, but what I want to say is that the level of this team is still very high. Bilanova is a very high-level head coach. He has his own coaching style and he will adjust his tactics according to the actual situation of the team. They won the championship with an absolute advantage in the La Liga, which is very difficult."

"Messi, Ibrahimovic, Iniesta, Xavi and other players are all very familiar to me. They are all players with strong personal abilities. There is no doubt that Barcelona is still one of the most powerful teams in football today, so I think the competition in this game will be very fierce because both sides are eager to win."

Gao Han also mentioned Paris Saint-Germain.

"All of us, including France, are looking forward to us bringing the championship trophy back to Paris. The level of the Ligue 1 is not low and it is developing very rapidly, but they have been missing from the top European honors for too long. Perhaps a Saint-Berrede Cup can stimulate the development of the Ligue 1 very well."

"I heard the voices of French fans before and after coming to London, and I hope I can not disappoint them."

At the end of the press conference, Gao Han made an exception and talked about his plans for the future.

"Yes, such a final is destined to be a supreme honor for any head coach or player, and for me, but I will be more calm because I have won several times, so I am very sure that I won't be able to sleep tonight, because this game is very important, but it's just a game."

"I want to say that tomorrow's game may be the last Champions League game in my coaching career, and the last time I lifted the St. Berede Cup, I have a strong sense of confidence in me, we will laugh to the end, and my players will fight to fulfill our wishes."

This confession is equivalent to admitting rumors about his retirement. Regarding his plans after retirement, Gao Han said that he might take a break for a while and devote more energy to the operation of Chinatown.

"I believe that no one will hype me up against Chinatown in the future." Gao Han smiled jokingly.

The media reporters also burst into laughter, but there will definitely be other hype topics at that time.

For example, if Chinatown performs poorly, Gao Han will fire the head coach in anger and take the position of coach himself.

Such news will definitely attract attention and are also popular among fans.

…………

…………

After the press conference, Gao Han was taken to the official dinner venue by staff.

At this routine dinner, in addition to playing against the head coaches and officials of both sides, not only did the British royal family arrange Gao Han’s neighbor Prince William to visit, but both Ferguson and Beckham’s master and apprentice, as well as Arsenal’s head coach Wenger and other famous coaches also accompanied him.

What made Gao Han most happy was that the relationship between Ferguson and Beckham improved a lot and began to communicate.

It is obvious that after leaving Manchester United's coaching position, Ferguson has gradually let go of the depression in his heart.

However, an emergency occurred at the dinner scene.

Although London police strengthened security measures due to rumors of terrorist attacks, there were still three extreme fans in Catalonia who disguised themselves as security guards on the scene and mingled into the dinner. Then they held up slogans to protest Gao Han. Two of them even rushed towards Gao Han, as if they were beaten up Gao Han.

Fortunately, the three people were immediately stopped and the police arrested them on the spot.

UEFA President Platini and Secretary-General Infantino also came forward to calm down and expressed regret for the emergencies.

Then, Platini personally apologized to Gao Han, and said that UEFA had passed Gao Han's appeal at the Executive Committee this afternoon, and decided to adjust the yellow card suspension mechanism for the Champions League and the UEFA Cup. Once any team enters the semi-finals, all previous yellow cards will be cleared to ensure that things like Yaya Toure will not happen again.

Gao Han was also deeply happy about this. Although Yaya Toure could not be used, this is undoubtedly good news for other players, ensuring that similar tragedies will not happen again.

But after the emergencies, Gao Han was not very relieved of the team staying in the hotel. Before the dinner ended, he accused Platini, Ferguson and others and left the dinner scene early.
