As the most important game of the season.
A game directly related to the Premier League championship.
Of course, the media's attention is not the same as for ordinary leagues.
There are still seven or eight hours left in the game.
Media from all over the world started filming around the Emirates Stadium.
The Premier League is the most commercially successful league in the world.
Competition is fierce every year.
Overseas broadcast rights can be sold for more than 4 billion.
I am so envious of La Liga, Bundesliga and other major leagues.
At this moment.
There were reporters from all over the world holding microphones and standing in front of the camera lens, introducing the game endlessly.
"Hello everyone, we are reporting in real time from outside the Emirates Stadium. The game will not start for several hours, but now we can see that there are already many home team fans wearing Arsenal jerseys around the stadium."
"It's already two o'clock in the afternoon, and there are still two and a half hours until the game starts."
"There were a lot of fans from both sides outside the Emirates Stadium. The local security department must have had a headache today. They sent a large number of security personnel to separate the fans from both sides to ensure that they would not come into contact. Although Arsenal and Manchester United are not considered We are not mortal enemies, but the fierce competition this season still makes the fans of both sides full of hostility."
"Dear viewers, we are now outside the Emirates Stadium, and there are a large number of fans gathered right in front of our camera. They are shouting slogans and carrying slogans. At this time, we are so noisy outside the stadium. You can imagine , how loud the decibels emitted by the fans will be in a real game venue!"
In front of the camera, a reporter from Longguo National Television almost shouted these words.
Because there are more and more people outside the stadium.
The entire stadium seemed very noisy.
It's like attending a temple fair.
That's when.
A group of Arsenal fans saw the team of Dragon Kingdom reporters, and they gathered in front of the camera.
"Ye Luo! Ye Luo! Ye Luo!"
Arsenal fans chanted.
Reporters from Longguo National Television also took the opportunity to interview them.
"We will definitely win! We will definitely win! We have Ye Luo! He can do anything!"
said an excited Arsenal fan.
"I have been waiting for this day for almost ten years! We are finally back where we belong! This is Arsenal! This is Arsenal!"
The fan seemed even more excited.
Wait for the fans to leave,
The journalist continued: 'See? This is Yello's popularity here. After we came here, there were already many Arsenal fans cheering for us and welcoming us. '
"There are quite a lot of reporters here, and Sky Sports, a major local TV station, also appeared around the Emirates Stadium very early. They even used drone equipment to take pictures!"
At this moment, the camera moved over, and sure enough, a large amount of photography equipment entered the lens.
And at this time.
At the hotel entrance.
Arsenal's players have boarded the bus.
The TV on the bus was also playing news about the game.
"Sky Sports News, we are now outside the stadium. At least more than 100,000 people gathered here today! We can see that many fans are holding signs hoping to buy tickets, but unfortunately, today's Chiefs It’s hard to get a ticket for the stadium! It is said that yesterday a Dragon Country fan planned to spend 8,000 euros to buy a ticket but failed. No Arsenal fan was willing to sell him his ticket."
Arsenal's players were all scrolling through Twitter and playing on their mobile phones.
But at this time.
Some people looked up at the TV and couldn't move their eyes.
then.
Every Arsenal player raised his head and looked at the TV.
Because at this time, the picture that appeared on the TV screen was too shocking.
Photographed by drone.
Unobstructed views around the Emirates Stadium.
The crowds were crowded, and the dense crowds gathered into a torrent, surging with the Emirates Stadium as the center.
This is Arsenal's home ground.
so.
The color of the torrent is mostly red.
But among them, there are also a torrent of colors wearing the dark blue Manchester United away jersey.
Viewed from the sky.
This torrent is sweeping and colliding.
An indescribable sense of beauty.
Let everyone be solemn.
Players from both sides were watching this scene almost at the same time.
This is a game that hundreds of thousands, even millions, are looking forward to.
Players from both sides couldn't help but clenched their fists.
A powerful opponent.
Crucial match.
Championship battle!
Does such a competition still require mobilization?
No need at all!
Fighting spirit and desire are stirring in the hearts of the players.
"Brothers, this is our stage!"
Ye Luo said suddenly.
Ferguson looked at his assistant McFerran: "My heart is beating a little faster than usual."
In fact, it's more than just a little bit.
Arsenal, Wenger.
This is.
An old rival I haven’t seen for a long time.
“This is a scene we haven’t seen in a long time!”
Inside the Sky Sports studios.
stage.
Also set up.
Except for the host.
The two invited guests are also big names.
King Henry of Highbury.
as well as
Former Manchester United captain Keane.
Henry was sighing at this time.
During his time at Arsenal, Arsenal were strong contenders for the Premier League title. After he left Arsenal, Arsenal began to decline.
And now.
Arsenal have another chance to reach the top!
"Can you make a prediction about the outcome of this game?" the host said.
Keane pouted: "Yeluo is very good, but I don't think other Arsenal players can bear this kind of pressure."
"That's not necessarily true!" Henry immediately retorted, "Yeluo's influence on the game is by no means just on a technical level! He is the leader of the team and a player that the players rely on."
"So you can only rely on Ye Luo?"
'No? '
The game hasn't started yet.
The celebrities on both sides began to quarrel.
This made the host look excited.
It's better to make a noise.
Only by making noise can we get ratings!
Fans, celebrities, media.
online TV.
Various people and channels are talking about this game.
In other words, arguing.
but.
Players on both sides of the argument seemed unhurried.
The bus drove slowly into the stadium.
Stopped in the parking lot.
Wenger was the first to get out of the car, followed by captain Ye Luo.
None of the players were interviewed by the media and walked all the way into the locker room.
soon.
Players from both sides appeared on the court to warm up.
The entire Emirates Stadium was packed at this moment.
Oh, and there are no seats available.
There were two empty rows around the visiting team seats.
This is for safety reasons, as we are worried that fans on both sides will get too close and cause confusion.
This is a move that often occurs in important games.
But this approach made Manchester United very dissatisfied.
Because this is at the expense of reducing Manchester United's away tickets.
Arsenal fans' ticket share has not been affected, but Manchester United's away tickets have dropped from 3,000 to 2,000.
Originally, Manchester United's fans coming to the away game were much less than those of the home team.
One more cut.
That's even less.
But how many tickets are given to the visiting team?
It is decided by the home team, and neither the English Football Association nor the Premier League can interfere.
These are all agreed-upon things.
After all, we all play against each other at home and away every year. If you give me less tickets today, next time you return to my territory, I will also reduce your ticket share, so in fact, people rarely tamper with the away team’s tickets.
All according to the rules.
Arsenal did not break the rules.
For safety reasons, giving two thousand tickets to the visiting team is not a small amount.
But Manchester United also seizes every opportunity to create topics.
Make the game more exciting.
Whether it’s two thousand or three thousand.
Compared with the more than 55,000 home team fans present.
It's all a small witch that makes a big witch appear.
So from the beginning.
The Emirates Stadium is Arsenal fans' place.
The Manchester United fans couldn't make a sound.
In fact, there are quite a lot of Manchester United fans coming to London.
However, most of them were unable to enter the stadium, but even so, in order to get closer to their team, there were still many Manchester United fans waiting outside the stadium.
They believe that the walls of the Emirates Stadium cannot withstand their cheers.
In this regard, the London security department is very nervous.
Inside the stadium, there are stands divided into sections, so the situation is relatively controllable.
With so many people gathered outside the stadium, it would be great fun if something happened.
Hidden dangers such as a stampede hang like the Sword of Damocles overhead.
The authorities had to send more people to maintain order outside the stadium.
The competition is so popular that security is not only needed inside the stadium, but also outside the stadium.
This is also rare.
After the warm-up is completed.
Players from both sides returned to their respective locker rooms.
In the home team's locker room.
Wenger has been waiting for a long time.
There is no need to say more about tactics.
Wait until everyone comes back.
Assistant coach Blake closed the locker room door.
The hustle and bustle outside suddenly disappeared for the time being - the sound insulation conditions of the home team's locker room were very good.
When the Emirates Stadium was being built.
Wenger spent a lot of thought on the design of the home and guest locker rooms.
Home team locker room.
Spacious, bright, good sound insulation, and complete facilities.
The visiting team's locker room does not have this condition.
It was cramped, dark, and most importantly, there was no sound insulation at all.
This behavior is all too normal in England.
This is one of the home field advantages.
Some teams even have intermittent hot water supply in visiting team locker rooms.
If any visiting team player wants to take a hot bath at this time, it will be fun.
Hot and cold water, the main theme is an abstraction.
The conditions in the visiting team's dressing room at the Emirates Stadium are certainly not that bad.
But in such a hustle and bustle.
If Ferguson's voice is to be heard clearly by all the players, it must be roared!
Wenger looked at his players and said: "This is our most important game of the season."
