On the morning of April 2, Manchester City's headquarters, the pre-match press conference for Manchester City's home match against Dortmund is in full swing.

Although Dortmund is very scary in the Bundesliga and has performed well in the Champions League, and they have won the Big Ear Cup in history, seeing Manchester City's current hot state, although the outside public opinion does not have a one-sided tendency, they generally believe that Manchester City is more likely to advance.

"We and Dortmund are both dark horses! Fortunately, there will always be a dark horse on the semi-finals stage, and unfortunately one of us will be eliminated!" Wen Sheng joked at the press conference, "Our opportunities are equal. It doesn't seem too wonderful to be hosted first and then visit, but I don't think this has a big impact on us!"

Wen Sheng was also very proud of his praise when talking about Dortmund's team, "I think they are a particularly good team. Jurgen's team is playing pleasing football. In short, I like their team very much!"

Manchester City's match against Dortmund in the quarterfinals is actually considered by the outside world to be one of the most eye-catching duels.

First of all, both teams are actually the head of the ills. Manchester City is not a big average age, and Dortmund is even more so. Both teams have the reputation of youth teams in their respective leagues, but in the eyes of experts, Manchester City may be more reasonable in matching.

Secondly, the two young coaches have another showdown. Needless to say, Wen Sheng, the hottest young head coach in Europe, has a very glamorous resume. He led Crystal Palace to win the Europa League, FA Cup, and Premier League respectively in his three-year career. Klopp is not far from that, leading Dortmund to win the league and the German Cup.

The championships in the hands of the two are very valuable. In the Premier League, it is necessary to challenge traditional giants, Chelsea and Manchester City, and Dortmund must challenge Bayern Munich, the overlord of German football and even European football. It is very difficult.

The media have found out that Wensheng and Klopp's personal relationship is good. The group stage dialogue ended with a handshake and reconciliation, but when they met in the quarterfinals, the two could no longer shake hands and reconciliation. Is it Klopp's running and bombing tactics more powerful, or Wensheng's health football is more powerful, and we will finally have to see a clear understanding.

Highlights 3: The showdown between young people.

Dortmund is very famous. He is the winner of the Golden Boy Award in 2011. He also performed very well under Klopp. However, there is De Bruyne here. De Bruyne is about one year old and is already known as the top midfielder in European football. He has already performed twice-double in various competitions in Manchester City this season.

Wensheng had long complained to the media that the Golden Boy Award was not allowed to be won once by De Bruyne, which was a joke.

The media vaguely realized that Wensheng seemed to be very dissatisfied with this point and did not have much high evaluation of the winner of the European Golden Boy Award. Last time I was ambiguous and did not seem to value this title at all. When evaluating the price policy this time, Wensheng said: "I don't know if he should win the Golden Boy Award! I think this award may not be that important to him!"

In short, there are so many things, and the outside media have given this game many reasons why "their duel must be exciting".

Wen Sheng’s restless wife, Cheryl analyzed in the Guardian’s column that this is a competition to test his willpower!

"Both teams are very young. They may not have many experience in the Champions League. The most competitive game in the two rounds should be willpower. The two teams have little difference in strength. Only with strong psychological qualities can they win in the knockout stage...."

Wen Sheng also agreed with his wife's statement at today's pre-match press conference.

"We must recognize the enemy we are facing. Dortmund is difficult to deal with. They are really excellent. They have not suffered a defeat this season in the Champions League. We must be cautious. The most important thing in such a game is to test the willpower of both sides. Whoever is more calm and stronger will be able to laugh at the end!"

Wen Sheng is reminding the players and himself, and he cannot be neglected at any time.

......

At the Bracker Training Center in Dortmund, Klopp held a pre-match press conference a little later than Manchester City.

Compared with the previous unhappiness, Uncle Zha has completely accepted the fact that the quarterfinals opponent is Manchester City. Some things cannot be changed, so I can only accept them. It is not necessarily a bad thing to talk about when it comes to a different idea. After all, everyone has already fought two games, so it can be considered familiar.

"Jurgen, how do you think of your upcoming opponent Manchester City, and their head coach Daniel Wen?" asked Klopp, a reporter from Dortmund's local media Ruhr News.

"They are amazing! I think they are on the same ranks as several other top European teams!"

Klopp paused for a moment, but was interrupted by the reporter.

"You mean your Dortmund is not in this category?!"

"Of course we are in this ranks!" Klopp immediately smiled. No matter how you say it, you can't just increase your ambitions and treat yourself as the Beijing board, right?!

"In the past few months, they have shown good competitive state. I don't even remember when they last lost!" Klopp had a serious expression and answered reporters' questions seriously.

"As for Daniel, yes, maybe he's one of the best coaches in Europe right now, I honestly have always been surprised by his achievements, and I think he's an amazing coach!"

"Who do you think is more threatening in Manchester City's team?! What do you think of the player De Bruyne?" the reporter continued.

"Who is more threatening?! Their lineup is excellent, and I am sure that in a good state, it is enough to make the teams fighting against them feel a headache! De Bruyne at Crystal Palace and Manchester City now have proved how outstanding he is, as well as Silva, Toure, Dzeko, Nasri, etc. They are all great! We don't need to limit one of them, we need to limit Manchester City's overall performance!" Klopp shrugged and answered the reporter's question.

"Aguero is said to be absent from this game. Is this a positive factor for your team?" the reporters asked again.

"This is indeed a good thing for us. He has a very sensitive sense of smell in front of the goal, but don't forget what kind of coach Daniel is. He has the ability to make up for the losses caused by Aguero's absence!" Klopp answered this question, then smiled and said to the reporters: "Don't forget that we also have wounded!"
