Semanates from Villarreal. While UEFA only needs to send a horse’s head with a score by Nino Rota to the headquarters of Bara, Real Madrid and Juventus, there is already a Champions final for this edition. It will be played by two regrets, as in an ‘Operation Ncora’, Manchester City and Chelsea, two entities dedicated to the fans.
Guardiola did it again. For him, football retains its part of the game, as if they were bottles that move on a desktop. His 4-6-0 system despairs the defenses of the rivals who do not know whether to enter or leave, whether to go forward or stay behind. On the bench, only in the forward position, he had Sterling, Ferran Torres, Kun Agero or Gabriel Jess.
City eliminated PSG that dismissed Tuchel, maker of a stainless Chelsea, a thoroughbred team with some jewels like Havertz, Pulisic or Mount Those who must not crush the mountain of resistance that accompanies them, go Rudiger, Kant or Azpilicueta.
Messi, Cristiano, Mbapp, Neymar …
If you see the a Champions final without Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar, Mbapp, Luis Surez, Griezmann, Benzema, Lewandowski, Oblak, Modric, Haaland or Neuer. The teams polished the stars, which is not toxic in an all-star soccer and Asian schedule for the fans.
And the doubt of if Real Madrid, Barcelona or Juventus will return to this competition some day while Ceferin plants her hair in the sun for the repentant to see. The series is missing.
The final of the Europa League, a competition sponsored by Sevilla, will be played by Manchester United and Villarreal. The most logical thing is that a club of a small town, surrounded by giants, was this weekend in the pages of the labyrinth that are the Second B. or the Third Division with a competition system that only the Pentagon understands.
The triumph of a management
The history of Villarreal is one of good management, that of the people who put money in order not to lose it, but also to make a place great and revolutionize it through sport. It is not a miracle, it is a consequence.
Villarreal has passed, among other hundreds, Forln, Cazorla, Marcos Senna, Capdevila, Bruno, Riquelme, Sorn, Pires, Arruabarrena, Reina and the heroes of today, including those that Valencia despised. Films have been made in the United States for fewer reasons. It is not necessary for Nino Rota to ring.
