   In this year's Champions League final, Schalke 04 became the fortieth final team in the history of the Champions League. It is also another new team in the Champions League final since Chelsea in 2008.

   More coincidentally, that time Dortmund won the final for the first time. The final was also held in Germany, but not Berlin, but the Munich Olympic Stadium, the old home stadium of Bayern.
The encounter between Schalke and Real Madrid in the Champions League final is the fourth time in the history of the Champions League final that there has been a Bundesliga vs. La Liga. The previous three finals in West Germany were Real Madrid defeated Frankfurt, Bayern defeated Atletico Madrid, and Real Madrid defeated Le Vau. Cousin.
   In other words, Real Madrid met the Bundesliga team in the Champions League final twice, and they all won the championship successfully.
   In the previous history of the Champions League final, there have only been two occasions to win at home, namely Real Madrid in 1957 and Inter Milan in 1965.
However, in addition to winning at their own home courts, winning at their own domestic stadiums can also be regarded as a half-home win. Manchester United won in London in 1968, Ajax won in Rotterdam in 1972, and Liverpool won in London in 1978. Juventus won in Rome in 1996, and Dortmund won in Munich in 1997.
   If Schalke 04 can win the championship in Berlin this time, it will be the sixth team to win the championship in its domestic stadium.

   The other is Basler in 1999, who was made into a world-class former genius by Beckenbauer.
   It is worth mentioning that the two players who completed a direct free kick in the Champions League final successfully helped their team to open the scoring, but in the end their team lost the championship.
   Aragones helped Atletico take the lead in 1974, but it was eventually equalized by Bayern and then defeated by four goals in the rematch.
   In 1999, Basler helped Bayern score a goal, but was reversed by Manchester United scoring two goals in stoppage time, achieving Manchester United's triple crown.
   Judging from the European media's prospects for the UEFA Champions League final, Real Madrid is in the dominant side in almost every aspect. This is one of the reasons why the media are generally optimistic about Real Madrid's victory.
The only minor problem with Real Madrid is that their key midfielder, Xavi Alonso, received a yellow card in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final, so he had to be suspended in the final. This is rare for Schalke. News.
  On May 21st, three days before the Champions League final, the Schalke Club announced the 18-man squad for this season’s Champions League final, and Zhang Xizhe’s name successfully appeared on the list.
   This is just a small piece of news for the European media. After all, a small team like Schalke has simple staff. It is not uncommon to see one or two marginal players in the finals.
   But for the Chinese media, this is a real big news. The first Chinese player to participate in the Champions League final has appeared.
   As long as you have entered the big list, you have been to the finals.
   And Zhang Xizhe is not only the first in China, but also the third in Asia.
   In the previous Champions League history, only South Korea’s Park Ji-sung and Japan’s Usami Takashi two Asian players have participated in the Champions League final~EbookFREE.me~ Park Ji-sung was the key player in Ferguson's later stage and won the 2008 Champions League with the team.
   However, in the final of 2008, Ferguson did not make Park Ji-sung enter the finals due to tactical considerations. However, Park Ji-sung contributed a lot in the Champions League that season and eventually won the championship gold medal, but he did not get the chance to award the finals.
   But immediately after the 2009 and 2011 UEFA Champions League finals, Park Ji-sung played directly on behalf of Manchester United, but Manchester United lost the finals both times.
   And Takashi Usami represented Bayern in the 2012 Champions League final, but he sat on the bench for the entire game and never got a chance to play.
   Now Zhang Xizhe has become the third Asian player to participate in the Champions League final, which of course has attracted a lot of attention from the Chinese media.
  Although everyone knows that Zhang Xizhe's entry into the big squad is a bit strange, and even if he enters the big squad, it is basically impossible to get the chance to play in the finals, but everyone does not care.
   Just like the original Usami Takashi, he only played 5 times for Bayern in all competitions in the 201112 season, but the Champions League final was inexplicably entered the big squad. You have to say that there is no trick, who believes.
