"It's not going to go on like this...... Ronaldo thought distractedly as he controlled the ball nimbly with his right foot, dodging pressing from Maldini and Serginho (who came on as a substitute for Seedorf in the 86th minute), "Xavi (Alonso) has the advantage of having an excellent overall view, accurate passing, and a large area covered on the field, but his poor ability to get rid of the spot and his lack of technical delicacy make it difficult for him to play his due strength in a situation with limited space to move." Edgar is capable and adaptable to this level of defensive intensity, but at the age of 32, he doesn't have the physical strength to maintain this level of performance in extra time. Didier was confined to death by Stam and Nesta...... Tsk, it seems that the only way to find a breakthrough is to find a breakthrough from me or Frank. ”

As one of the top superstars in international football in his previous life, and also the most important player in George's life, Ronaldo does not rely on his not-so-top football talent (to be honest, in terms of ball sense and talent alone, Ronaldo is not even as good as Quaresma, who is also a Lisbon twin star), but relies on that hard and masochistic training method. Especially in this life, with the full support of the Tottenham Hotspur laboratory and the fact that George has equipped the Portuguese with a whole team of extremely professional training teams, Ronaldo's progress can be described as a rapid progress, and he matured earlier and faster than in his previous life, becoming an indispensable member of the Tottenham first team!

Although he does not have the speedy speed of Ribery and Robben, and his breakthrough ability is not as good as these two, and he does not have Robben's signature inward shooting skills, but he can firmly control the position of Tottenham's main right winger, Ronaldo relies on the strong body and near-comprehensive ability that he has trained through hard training - whether it is breaking through with the ball or passing and cutting coordination, whether it is a heavy bombardment or a point-grabbing attack in the penalty area, Ronaldo has reached a first-class level with his efforts. Coupled with the fitness of far more than most players and good insight on the pitch, Ronaldo's threat on the pitch is becoming bigger and bigger over time!

Therefore, when Tottenham's offensive was bogged down by AC Milan's dense defensive strategy, Ronaldo did not feel restless or sigh in his heart, but actively used his brain to try to find a way to break through the Rossoneri's defense - after experiencing the miracle of scoring three goals in seven minutes, Ronaldo seems to have absorbed enough nutrients from that period of time, and his understanding of football and the game has begun to enter a new level!

So, in the following time, Ronaldo, who had made up his mind, began to make various attempts on the field. After the break, he crosses the bottom of the ball, attracts a wide range of transfers after the defense, cuts inside and shoots, and seeks to cooperate with his teammates directly through the cross...... Cristiano Ronaldo continues to show off his growing arsenal in front of people's eyes, becoming the most eye-catching one for Tottenham in extra-time!

"What a promising young man!" Seeing Cristiano Ronaldo's brilliant performance in extra time, Florentino, Mo Lao Fox and Galliani couldn't help but be thrilled, and even coincidentally had the idea of recruiting the Portuguese in the summer transfer window. But soon, Lafayette shook his head and put the thought behind him - after all, the close relationship between Ronaldo and George is almost universally known in European football, and everyone can see that George cares for and prefers the Portuguese. In such a situation, it is obviously impractical to recruit Ronaldo from Tottenham, which is thriving!

George naturally noticed Ronaldo's actions, but he did not do the same as Ferguson or Mourinho, because the players did not strictly follow his tactical plan and even directly substituted him off the field for self-reflection - in George's view, players should be given a certain degree of freedom without touching the big tactical framework, so that they have a space to play freely. After all, players are not robots and cannot execute every tactic set by the manager flawlessly. If you keep your opponents under your hands in a tight position for a long time, it is likely to provoke discontent and negatively affect the atmosphere in the dressing room.

In this way, amid AC Milan's stubborn resistance and Cristiano Ronaldo's constant thinking and attempts, the first half of extra time was declared over at the whistle of Mejuto Gonzalez. Soon, though, after the half-time swap, the two teams continued to clash fiercely on the pitch!

"George, isn't it a little inappropriate to let Ildiraj play now?" Seeing George greet Basturk from the bench, old Charlie asked with some concern, "Although Ildiraj has better breakthroughs and more physical strength, his defensive ability is much worse than Edgar's." If I put him on the pitch, I'm worried that the defensive hardness of the midfield will suffer......"

George, who was engrossed in the situation on the field, ignored the concerns of old Charlie. Because he knows very well that under the strong pressure exerted by his own players, the current AC Milan has no strength to counterattack! In this case, why not continue to strengthen the attack, so that the opponent has no strength to use on the counterattack at all?

George's move to replace Davis with Basturk didn't get much attention. In their opinion, this is just an ordinary substitution, and it will not have much impact on the game. However, what everyone didn't expect was that it was George's substitution adjustment that opened the door to victory for Tottenham, who were at a stalemate on the pitch!

It is true that, as Charlie Sr. said, Basturk is inferior to Davies defensively, but his physical strength and technical excellence can help Tottenham open a breakthrough in the middle, forcing AC Milan to spread their forces to defend. In this way, Ribery and Ronaldo on both wings can get more space and opportunities!

No, Basturk picked up the ball for the first time and forced his way into Milan's central defence, attracting the attention of Gattuso and Pirlo to the left. After winning the ball, Ribery accelerated past Cafu and sent a high ball to the back of the AC Milan penalty area!

Because Nesta and Stam are concentrating on defending Drogba in the middle at the moment, there are only Cristiano Ronaldo, who is inserting at high speed, and Maldini, who is almost unable to run after playing for nearly two hours, at the landing point of the ball!

Yes, everyone unconsciously overlooks the fact that while Cristiano Ronaldo has made a name for himself in European football with his gorgeous footwork and excellent technique and increasingly amazing scoring ability, and is regarded as the natural successor of Figo in the Portuguese national team, the young man from a small fishing village on the island of Madeira still has a height of 1.85 meters and a strong body carefully cultivated in the Tottenham laboratory!

With such a top-notch body, coupled with his slow pace and excellent awareness, as well as the physical strength that can still run all over the field, it is not surprising that Ronaldo was able to accelerate past the already exhausted Maldini in an instant at this time, and put Ribery's cross into the gate guarded by Dida without defense!

In the 108th minute of the game, Cristiano Ronaldo, who conceded a goal in the first half because he was obsessed with single-handing Maldini, made up for it and scored a crucial goal for Tottenham Hotspur!

At this moment, the entire Ataturk Stadium has become a stage for Ronaldo alone!
