“Mata—Gooooooooooooaaaaaal！”

“Gooooooooooooaaaaaal…… The ball is in, the ball is in, the ball is in!!"

"Oh my God, Inter Milan played a brilliant attacking combination and it was Juan Mata who made the final touch!!They broke the deadlock in the fifteenth minute!!"

"It's a really beautiful goal! It's definitely the best goal scored in the last 10 years or so in the Champions League final! It's a model of team goals! Almost all of Inter's midfielders are involved in the goal, some break through with the ball, some run and pull, some feint, and beautiful back-heel passes, there are side breakaways, there are penetrations in the middle!

"Mata!!, the youngster who just celebrated his 18th birthday, put a close to Inter's brilliant attack! It was the goal that broke the deadlock, and Inter now take the lead!!

After the goal, Juan Mata slapped the Inter logo on his chest with his hand, and then rushed to the stands of the Inter Milan fans and raised his arms vigorously!

He was so happy!

He was so excited!

It's the final of the Champions League!

It is the stage of the highest level of European football!

To be able to score in a final like this is the ultimate dream of every player!

***********

"Mata!"

"Mata!"

"Mata!"

The Inter fans erupted in wild cheers, they loved the Spaniard.

The rest of the players on the pitch also flocked to celebrate the goal.

Inter Milan's bench and coach's bench were also jubilant.

Leon was hugged tightly by his assistant, and Banderas used all his strength to yell in Leon's ear, "We scored!

Leon's face also looked a little hideous because of excitement.

This goal made him excited, not only because Mata's goal helped Inter Milan break the deadlock on the field, but also because this goal gave Leon the hope of breaking fate and breaking the inertia of history.

In his memory, in the 2006 final in the original historical trajectory, although Arsenal also scored first and then led Barcelona 1-0, but before Arsenal scored, their German goalkeeper Lehmann had been sent off with a red card.

At this moment, the red card situation that worried Li Ang did not appear, and Inter Milan now took the lead in the score with all the players in order, which made him feel a wonderful sense of excitement in his heart.

***********

Inter Milan were celebrating, and on Barcelona's side, Rijkaard waved his hand angrily, and the Dutchman's face became grim.

Rijkaard and Leon are old rivals, he naturally knows that Leang's team is difficult to deal with, especially let Inter Milan take the lead in the score, which means that Inter Milan can play more calmly counterattack, and this is what Leon's team is good at, in last season's Camp Nou, Barcelona and Sporting Gijón met for the first time in the league, Leon's team is to use defensive counter-attack tactics to the best, and finally beat Barcelona away, that game can be said to be unforgettable for Rijkaard。

Barcelona must equalize as soon as possible!

The longer it drags on, the more favorable the game situation will be for Inter Milan!

Rijkaard gritted his teeth.

The game restarted and the Barcelona players received instructions from their head coach Rijkaard, who suddenly increased the tempo of the attack.

Gyuli dribbled the ball on the left flank, this game has a different meaning for him, the French star spent most of his career in Ligue 1, he became famous very early, but, because he did not play in the giants, so, has always been looked down upon, after Monaco lost the European Champions Cup final, Gyuli joined La Liga giants Barcelona at the age of 26, some people have been saying that Gyuli went to Barcelona to mix seniority and retirement, which made the French star unconvinced, this Champions League final was played at the Stade de France, the symbol of French footballGyuli is desperate to help Barcelona win the title on his doorstep, and he wants to prove himself to the world!

***********

Seeing Gyuli take the ball, David Silva went up to interfere.

With a dashing snap, Silva was easily shaken.

The sudden breakthrough of the Barcelona star from Lyon, France, drew a burst of cheers and cheers from the Barcelona fans in the stands.

Zanetti greeted him.

In the face of Gyuli, Zanetti did not blindly grab up. He slowly stepped back, intending to hold off Hisri and buy time for his teammates to help defend.

Naturally, Gyuli also knew Zanetti's intentions, and he intended to make a quick decision.

With a sinking of his left shoulder, Gyuli made a breakthrough towards the sideline, but his right foot flicked the ball inside.

Zanetti knew that he had to make a move, although he also knew that Gyuli might be under the guise of this move, but he knew that if he didn't make a move, Gyuli would turn the void into reality and really break through from that side.

When a defender faces an attacking player, he is always on the passive side!

Zanetti moves his center of gravity and kicks out!

"Gyuli! beautiful breakthrough!" shouted the French commentator.

I saw that Jiuli's body flashed, and after the center of gravity of Zanetti who was deceived moved, he changed direction again, flashed past Zanetti cleanly, and galloped away with the ball.

***********

Rijkaard stood up on the sidelines, and Gyuli's breakthrough made him secretly cheer and expect more.

Giuli passed Inter captain Zanetti, who controlled the ball well at his feet and continued to push forward.

However, Gyuri suddenly noticed a touch of white around him. This is the Inter Milan player in the white shirt of the away team today!

Jiuli was shocked and was about to slow down.

However, the Inter Milan player who caught up was unusually quick and decisive at his feet, and directly fell to the ground and slid the tackle, knocking Giuli to the ground with the ball.

"Foul!" shouted the Catalan commentator.

"It's Carlos, he's back to make up for it, nice to defend!" shouted the Milan commentator.

Referee Hauge hesitated slightly, and then his gesture was 'sideline ball': no foul, just a throw-in.

This caused displeasure among the Barcelona players, who quickly ran and surrounded the referee in protest.

Leon applauded on the sidelines, applauding Carlos' brilliant defense, and then watching the Barcelona players surround the referee, Leon flattened his mouth.

However, Jiuli's breakthrough also made Li Ang vigilant.

Today's Barcelona number one star Ronaldinho was temporarily limited by Inter Milan's targeted defense, and did not play his best, but this time Jiuli's breakthrough almost brought a threat to Inter Milan.

Leon had a serious expression, and he didn't dare to be careless about the French star.

***********

In the Barcelona Dream II team with Ronaldinho as the core, in addition to Ronaldinho, there are Xavi, Iniesta, Puyol, Eto'o, they are all important forces in Barcelona's Quartet, and are considered the most important stars of the Barcelona Dream II team, but, in Leon's view, there is another player in this Barcelona team, although his name is not often reported in the media and is not eye-catching, but he is also very important to Rijkaard's team. That player is Frenchman Gyuli, who has shown his footballing acumen and a great work ethic in the game.

Although in 2007, the Frenchman Giuli had to give way to the younger Messi, but in the three years he played for Barcelona, he really played a key role in the reconstruction of Barcelona.

In the summer of 2004, French attacker Giuli moved from Monaco to Barcelona for £6 million. Prior to his move to Barcelona, he helped Monaco reach the 2003/2004 Champions League final, but lost to Jose Mourinho's Porto in the final.

In the 2003/2004 Champions League, Didier Deschamps' Monaco overcame difficulties and met Jose Mourinho's Porto in the final. However, Monaco ended up losing 0-3. Perhaps for Gyuli, he will regret that this game became his last game at Monaco, and he was substituted early in this game because of a groin injury.

At that time, Gyuli was already a household name in France, he was cunning and threatening, able to adapt to a variety of tactical systems and was capable of playing in multiple positions. In the game, Gyuli was able to constantly destroy the opponent's defence through his excellent technique, and he had a very calm side in front of goal.

Although Barcelona already had the likes of Samuel Eto'o and Ronaldinho at the time, who could contribute a lot of goals to the team, they still needed a 'model worker' who could maintain his consistency to form the front three of the team – and Gyuli was such a player.

Gyuli's presence unlocked new skills in Barcelona's front line, and he was also able to score goals for the team from time to time. Although Gyuli's performances at Barcelona were not as outstanding as they were at Monaco, there is no doubt that the French attacker is really important to the 'Dream II'.

Rijkaard is well aware that Gyuli is the best option for Barcelona to strengthen their attack, and he later said of Gyuli in an interview: "I didn't coach Gyuli too much, he is a very important player for us. He's a chance-maker and he's also got the ability to score goals. If you only let him play on the side, then it is an insult. Giuli's speed and intelligence are the foundation of his game. ”

***********

Jiuli's breakthrough aroused Li Ang's vigilance.

He immediately made a targeted adjustment, allowing Modric to focus on Zanetti's side.

Carlos's main task today, in addition to confronting Van Bommel, is to prevent Ronaldinho, the task is already very heavy, and it is impossible to expect Carlos to come over every time to fill Zanetti's side.

Rijkaard saw that Gyuli's side was starting to be active, and he immediately made adjustments, asking the team's offensive focus to temporarily tilt to Gyuli's side.

Three minutes later, Gyuli tried to break down the flanks again, but this time he faced Zanetti's tough defence and just as the Inter captain and Gyuli were at a stalemate, Modric stole the ball from his feet.

"Counter-attack, counter-attack! This is Inter's chance to counter-attack!"

After Modric successfully grabbed the ball, he directly attacked with a long pass with a big foot.

Adriano was up front, he headed the ball straight back to Ronaldo, then turned and ran forward.

After Ronaldo got the ball, he immediately played a wall-hitting combination with David Silva, who came to pick up the ball, and after receiving Silva's pass, he took the ball and accelerated at the same time, forced overtaking from the outside, brushed off Van Bronckhorst, who came to defend in a hurry, and slid the ball into the penalty area.

***********

Van Bronckhorst was shocked and did not give up, he tried his best with all his strength, accelerated under his feet, and entangled Ronaldo tightly, and at the same time had a small movement in his hand and pulled Ronaldo's shirt.

Ronaldo had been prepared for this for a long time, and after passing the ball, he accelerated again, but his center of gravity was unstable and he fell directly into the penalty area.

Referee Hauge's whistle sounded.

"Hit the wall! Beautiful! Ronaldo broke through Van Bronckhorst, fell to the ground, Ronaldo fell in the box!" exclaimed the commentator.

"Someone fell! Ronaldo fell to the ground! The referee's whistle sounded, could it be a penalty? Will it be a penalty? Penalty! Penalty kick! Referee Hauge pointed to the penalty spot! Penalty kick! Van Bronckhorst fouled Ronaldo! 'Alien' fell in the Barcelona penalty area! The referee awarded a penalty! This is Inter Milan's chance to extend their lead!"

"The Barcelona players are protesting, they are surrounding the referee Haug!

"The Barcelona players are protesting, they come up to the referee Hauge to theorize. Van Bronckhorst raised his hands in the air, and he was trying to defend himself...... This penalty is very bad for Barcelona, who are behind the scoreline, and they are still hoping that the referee will change the decision!"

***********

"There is nothing wrong with this penalty decision! Van Bronckhorst pulled Ronaldo's shirt, which made Ronaldo's center of gravity unstable when he accelerated! The penalty was awarded correctly, there was no problem!" Sky TV's Italian commentator Ferrari shouted excitedly, and the slow-motion replay showed that Van Bronckhorst pulled Ronaldo's shirt in the penalty area, and at this time Ronaldo suddenly accelerated, under the camera, Van Bronckhorst's small action of pulling the shirt was extremely conspicuous......

Barcelona's protest was ineffective, and referee Hauge insisted on his decision: penalty!

Thirty-nine minutes into the game, Van Bronckhorst fouled Ronaldo in the box and Inter Milan were awarded a penalty kick, and they had a great chance to extend the score!
