As the classic Champions League anthem echoed through Bernabéu Stadium, the head referee from the United Kingdom, Howard Weber, led the two teams out of the players' tunnel.
At this moment, the entire Bernabéu was a surging wave of sound created by the Real Madrid fans.
Wang Shuo took a deep breath, following his teammates, holding a player mascot's hand as he stepped into this temple of football that countless people dreamed of.
This was his first time setting foot in Bernabéu Stadium!
As Wang Shuo walked into the vortex of the Bernabéu, he looked up to see nothing but steep, three-tiered stands.
At this very moment, every corner of the stands was filled with people, all cheering and shouting themselves hoarse.
The wave of their voices continuously assaulted Wang Shuo's eardrums.
Wang Shuo followed in the formation, and after entering the pitch, they all lined up in a single file.
The official pre-match ceremony followed the usual procedure.
