Volume 1: The Hero Appears, People Pay Attention Chapter 349: The Lingering Sound of the Show of Power (Second Update)
Guardiola also saw the media reports about this incident on the second day after the incident, which was the day of the match.
He didn't take it to heart. He just curled his lips and snorted from the bottom of his heart: psychological warfare!
This time he guessed right, Chen Yingxiong was indeed launching a psychological warfare.
But he didn't take it to heart...
Guardiola didn't take it seriously because first of all, he didn't care about what Chen Yingxiong said. He is not a person who likes to make excuses. His players make excuses because they are unwilling to lose the game. This is not a big deal. For him, it is a good thing, because at least it shows that they have fighting spirit and are unwilling to admit defeat. Since he doesn't care, then Chen Yingxiong's words have much less offensive power to him, and he naturally thinks that his players are the same as himself.
Secondly, he is confident in his control over the team. He has warned the players not to be affected by Chen Yingxiong's psychological tactics and not to be fooled. In the training these days, he also saw that the players listened to him and the mood of the whole team was very stable.
So he thought his influence had been exerting its influence until now.
The players would not be affected by Liverpool and Chen Yingxiong's poor psychological tactics.
Because of this confidence, he did not even ask his players what they thought of the latest incident.
In this way, he lost the last chance to adjust the players' psychology.
Barcelona, the space battleship. Is thinking about going to a dangerous area.
But no one knows this.

A lot of people have gathered around Anfield Stadium at dusk.
The Champions League is different from the Premier League. Most Premier League games are scheduled to kick off on weekend afternoons. This is the tradition of the English Football League for more than 100 years. At the beginning, there was no stadium floodlight lighting system, and there was no prime-time TV broadcast. It was impossible to play at night. So the afternoon became the best time period.
Nowadays, even with TV broadcasts, the Premier League also follows this tradition. Only a few games will be scheduled at night. Even the focus battles are in the afternoon.
Because English fans have been accustomed to watching games in the afternoon for a hundred years.
Since you are used to it. Then don't change it.
The Champions League is a new game. The influence has only expanded with the advent of television broadcasting.
They don't have any traditions to follow. How to meet the requirements of television broadcasting organizations and sponsors is their primary consideration.
For television broadcasting, 7pm to 10pm is the prime time. The Champions League matches must naturally be broadcast during this time period. In this way, the exposure of advertising sponsors will increase, and the sponsorship fees they pay to UEFA will be higher.
Everyone is happy.
Today is the Champions League match day, so the game starts at 7:45pm.
Everyone can have dinner at home or around the stadium. Then rush to the stadium to watch the game.
But who is interested in eating at this time? Even if they eat, it is just to fill their stomachs. After eating in a hurry, they rush to the stadium.
The game has not started yet, and the stadium is not open. Everyone is not in a hurry. They just wait outside the stadium and sing and dance.
Fans have their own entertainment methods.
Liverpool fans still occupy the vast majority, and they are everywhere. There are only 3,000 Barcelona fans, and they gather together. They looked very united - there was no way they could not be united. In Liverpool, there was Chen Yingxiong, so Liverpool fans did not like Barcelona very much, and they also disliked Barcelona fans.
In addition, everyone knew the notoriety of English football hooligans. For safety reasons, they had to gather together to avoid being hit with wine bottles in the alleys.
Now, the square outside Anfield Stadium presented such a clear-cut scene.
Liverpool fans wore red jerseys and occupied most of the territory. Barcelona fans wore green Barcelona away jerseys. In a large sea of red, it was like a small boat that could be submerged at any time.
Not only that, the Liverpool fans who were closer to them were constantly intimidating and intimidating them, making all kinds of ferocious expressions at them, raising their middle fingers at them, and some people simply shouted: "Real Madrid! Real Madrid!" to stimulate Barcelona fans.
And the Liverpool police separated these obviously drunk Liverpool fans from the 3,000 people in Barcelona.
Under the protection of the police, Barcelona fans were still a little worried - they were worried that there were Liverpool fans undercover among the police. If they were to show a crack, wouldn't it be like a sheep falling into the tiger's mouth?
Worried about this situation, Barcelona fans were still a little rational under the siege and provocation of Liverpool fans. They did not rush over and cursed at Liverpool fans across the wall of police.
But each of them had fucked these damn Liverpool fans seventy-two times in their hearts.
Wait and see, you bastards!
You can only laugh now, and you will cry when the game comes!
Our invincible Barcelona will crush you as easily as crushing an ant!

When the two teams waited for the buses to arrive, they received completely different treatments.
Liverpool's bus arrived first, and they were cheered by the fans on the scene. The shouts from Liverpool fans were deafening, making this area their world.
Their shouts made the Barcelona fans unable to hear what each other was saying even if they were talking face to face.
They made the Barcelona fans fully realize what "home advantage" is.
Later, when Barcelona's bus arrived. There was an overwhelming booing outside Anfield.
The booing was so loud that the Barcelona fans who followed the team all over the country were frightened - they had never encountered such a situation.
Even outside the Bernabeu, the home of Real Madrid, they did not see such a scene.
Many Barcelona fans looked at each other and saw something in each other's eyes... fear that they were unwilling to admit!
The Barcelona players sitting on the bus were also shocked.
They were also experienced players, but such an away environment...
They really had never seen it before!
Even at the Bernabeu. There was no such huge booing - the sound insulation of the Mercedes-Benz luxury bus is very good. But now they are like sitting in an open-top bus, and the booing is continuous. Deafening, as if it is right next to their ears!
The booing has been lingering in their ears even after they entered the special channel - of course, it is not the fans who are still booing. In fact, when their bus left the square. The booing gradually stopped. This is completely an illusion caused by the previous terrifying booing, making them feel that the booing has been ringing in their ears.
These Liverpool fans really made the lingering sound linger in their ears!
This is what Liverpool fans can do for their team.
Before the game starts, give the opponent a warning and severely dampen the opponent's spirit!
Because they can't see the expressions of the Barcelona players in the bus clearly, they don't know if they have completed the task.
Now that the bus is out of sight, they can only stop booing and walk to the entrances quietly and orderly.
In fact, they have succeeded.

Even in the locker room, the annoying boos in the ears of Barcelona players have not completely dissipated...
"Damn it! These damn scousers!" Piqué entered the locker room and found that there were still boos in his ears, so he cursed unhappily.
He had played for Manchester United for a few years. Apart from Barcelona, Manchester United might be the team he supported the most. As a Manchester United player, how could he not hate Liverpool? Just like as a Liverpool player, how could he like Manchester United.
The word scousers was also heard from his Manchester United teammates when he played for Manchester United. He knew what it meant.
It was really appropriate to use this word to refer to Liverpool people at this time!
But after cursing like this, it didn't make him feel better, because the boos didn't disappear with his cursing.
"I really don't understand why those Liverpool people have such a big hatred for us..."
"They must be crazy, right?"
The other teammates around him were also talking about it.
Hearing their discussion, Piqué turned his head and said loudly to them: "It's Chen Yingxiong! It must be Chen Yingxiong!"
Hearing him suddenly say this, the players in the locker room stopped what they were doing and looked up or turned their heads to look at him.
"This must have been provoked by Chen Yingxiong! This is what he did! I believe it 100%! This is what he did!"
Hearing Piqué say this, many people showed a look of sudden enlightenment.
There was no hatred between them and Liverpool, but it suddenly deteriorated sharply in the past two years. Then the difference from before is naturally the difference between Chen Yingxiong and not being there.
"This damn Chinese! Why does he always go against us?"
"Because he is jealous of our achievements!"
"It's so hateful, we must beat them in this game! Then after the game, I will celebrate the victory in front of him!"
"This is a good idea!"
Everyone agreed, and soon reached a consensus-after winning this game, they should collectively run to Chen Yingxiong to celebrate the victory as a response to his repeated provocations.
Doesn't Chen Yingxiong like to continue to insult his opponents after defeating them?
Then let's give him a taste of this today!

When Guardiola finished his interview with reporters outside and entered the locker room, the discussion about Chen Yingxiong and Liverpool in the locker room had ended.
The players were changing their clothes and preparing to warm up.
It seemed that everyone was very motivated and wanted the game to start immediately.
Looking at these motivated players, Guardiola smiled with satisfaction.
This is the Barcelona he wanted to see...
But unfortunately, he saw an incomplete image, and he didn't know what happened before this scene.
Otherwise, he would never have such an idea...
