The elliptical Allianz Arena, when viewed from a distance, looks like a white rubber boat or a white castle.
At the subway station, Bayern fans wearing red jerseys flocked out.
The platform was filled with security personnel.
Vendors set up their stalls early, and the road to the stadium was decorated with jerseys, scarves, and team flags like a stream of red.
The scalpers shook the tickets in their hands and looked at the bargaining tourists indifferently.
In tonight's showdown, there is no need to worry about selling.
Outside the Allianz Arena.
Bayern Munich's mascot, Bernie Bear, transformed into a five-meter-tall behemoth. The giant doll greeted every visiting fan with a smile.
The crowd was buzzing.
The club has set up a "beer shed" outside the home stadium!
Not only is Munich’s close friend Paulaner Beer, but several other German beer brands have also set up huge advertising logos nearby to compete for popularity.
The fans sang songs and drank beer.
Duan Xuan led the camera crew through the crowds of people.
"CTV5! CTV5! Hello viewers, we are now at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany! Tonight we will witness a Champions League feast with you!"
“Let’s interview Bayern Munich fans first!”
His eyes immediately focused on the group of hot female fans next to him.
Duan Xuan, who was wearing a big windbreaker, really wanted to care about whether the other person was cold or not.
The German female fans were very generous and did not resist the interview.
Rushing to express their opinions.
"Bayern's overall strength is stronger than Arsenal. We have always been the nemesis of Premier League teams."
"Ancelotti is annoying, but he won't experiment during the game like Guardiola did. Lee can't break Bayern's goal as easily as before."
"Predict the score?"
"I'm optimistic about 2:1!"
"If Arsenal can score a goal, that person can only be Lee. He is a talented star who has gone from the Bundesliga to the world!"
“We enjoyed drinking Veltins’ beer both seasons because of his commercials!”
His tone became more and more excited.
The chest muscles also trembled.
The girls' movements were full of youthful vitality.

[Duan Xuan is really sensible. He is very good at selecting interview targets and asking the leader to add chicken drumsticks to this guy!]
-
【Chicken legs are so white!】
-
[Bayern fans are too round and too confident!]
-
[Where to move the photographer’s lens?]
-
【Is this live content that CTV5 can watch?】
-
[It is such a cold day and they are wearing so little. The German dragoons are indeed in excellent physical condition.]
-
[It’s hard to predict this game. Bayern is so stable this season and has always been better than Arsenal.]
-
[Don’t forget, Li Menxing is also better than Bayern.]
The sun sets in the west.
The surrounding streets and alleys were eroded by the red crowd, as if the clouds were also dyed red.
Bayern's team song floats in the air.
Duan Xuan took the photographer with him, struggled to break through the defense line, and finally found a group of Arsenal fans.
"We're not from London!"
"We have Arsenal supporters associations from all over Europe!"
"Arsenal was massacred by Bayern in the Champions League group stage last season. It was an unpleasant memory, but we believe we will get revenge tonight!"
"Because Arsenal has a hero of their own!"
"Lee will make club history!"
Night falls.
The "shell" of the Allianz Arena glows softly.
Four buses drove into the stadium one after another.
The fans on both sides of the street are excited!
They shouted the name of their star at the top of their lungs.
Slogans and posters were held high one after another.
The security personnel defended their positions as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Fortunately, there is no sworn hatred between the two clubs. This is how human nature is: when the strength gap in past games is too great, the stronger side will treat the weaker side gently.
Li Kang looked expressionlessly at the fans outside the car window, and inadvertently remembered Oscar Wilde's advice: Be more enthusiastic towards your supporters.
then.
He raised his hand and smiled at the fans.
The response was an even more enthusiastic shout:
"Lee!!!"
"Lee!!!"
"Lee!!!"
When the bus was far away from the crowd, Li Kang put away his tablet, took out a small bottle of orange-flavored bubble gum from his backpack, hesitated for a moment, and then put it back.
Only the last one is left.
Eat sparingly.
The auditorium of Bayern's home stadium is much more magnificent than many wealthy clubs.
The red seats were filled with reporters.
Stepped structure.
The main podium, which looks like a huge gem, contains Paulaner beer and Coca-Cola.
This pre-match press conference is destined to be anything but peaceful.
Ancelotti is being blasted by Bundesliga reporters.
He had a cold expression, chewing gum slowly, and stared directly at the Bayern team logo at the back of the press box.
"Mr. Carlo, why is there no Muller's name in the lineup for this game?"
"How can you put him on the bench?"
"If you lose at home, how will you accept the anger of the fans?"
"Why does Thiago play as a central midfielder?"
"Alonso is about to retire, why not let Kimmich take his place? Kimmich is Bayern's future, how do you put him back into the full-back position."
The roster was announced an hour in advance.
If Van Gaal or Bielsa encountered these questions.
The two of them would angrily take out their tactical boards, pull up their sleeves and debate with these media reporters!
But Ancelotti is different.
He will not contradict reporters in public interviews.
An attitude of "you can scold me all you want, but I won't change it".
The noise subsided.
Ancelotti lightly knocked on the table and said: "Tonight's game will be exciting. As a spectator, you will soon be immersed in the game."
The other side.
Wenger smiled and nodded.
He patiently answered reporters' questions.
"The Allianz Arena is one of the scariest places for Arsenal."
"The Camp Nou used to be the same, but it was attacked this season."
"Arsenal is on the right path and we will overcome all the nightmares in the past."
Bastian Schweinsteiger returns to a familiar place.
On the way to the locker room, I couldn't help but subconsciously touch the photos on the wall.
There are many black technologies in Allianz Arena.
The photos on the wall are dynamically switching LED screens.
next moment.
Then he saw his own photo.
There is also a slogan: 'Welcome home, Bastian Schweinsteiger!'
The little pig was immediately moved and couldn't help himself.
Maguire quickly reminded: "Stop dawdling! There are not many old guys here who want you to return to Bayern!"
This is also true.
Bayern Munich's midfield is full of stars.
More than 70,000 fans packed into the Allianz Arena.
Countless red flags fluttering in the wind.
"CTV5! CTV5! Good evening, viewers."
"The live broadcast for you now is the 2016/17 Champions League quarter-finals knockout rounds!"
"Bayern Munich vs. Arsenal!"
"Mars hits Earth!"
"The past records of the two teams have no reference value!"
"Can Arsene Wenger avenge his disgrace tonight?"
"Can Bayern continue their terrifying suppression against London teams?"
