Thirty-seven minutes into the game, the two sides were still in a good fight, with one goal and one at the post each. Both teams' counter-attacks also had a lot of effect, and if it wasn't for a little less luck, there should have been more goals.

In the 40th minute, AC Milan attacked in front of the Real Madrid goal, Zhang Shujie received Deulofeu's header and rubbed it to Chen Zihua behind, Chen Zihua shot from two meters outside the penalty area, the ball hit Casemiro's calf, bounced up, although it still bounced to the goal, but the power was reduced a lot, Navas did not move much in front of the goal, and easily picked up the ball.

Real Madrid then launched a counter-attack, but under the sandwich of AC Milan players, they failed to reach the 30-metre area of Milan's backfield, and Chen Zihua kicked the ball off the touchline.

'The first half is fast approaching and there shouldn't be stoppage time. If nothing else, the score may be 1:0 for the time being. ”

Shortly after these words, Romagnoli tripped Ronaldo in a defense in front of the penalty area, and the referee decisively gave a penalty.

The yellow card can not be given, but this free kick still has to be given, this position is directly opposite the goal, the distance is about 21 meters, which is exactly within Ronaldo's range.

Although Ronaldo's free kick is not unique in the world, it is definitely a master of free kicks. The Portuguese king has scored a total of 12 free-kicks in Europe, the most of any player in Champions League history, and this alone shows how deep his free-kick skills are.

AC Milan's defense began to tense, Inzaghi also had a lot of objections to Romagnoli, he didn't foul early or late, he actually fouled at the end of the first half, and the place where the foul was committed was so close to the goal, it wouldn't be far?

"It's not a good thing that Romagnoli is fouling at this time and in this place. Not to mention that Real Madrid has a top player like Cristiano Ronaldo, even if it is changed to other teams that are not good at taking free kicks, it will be a threat in this place, and it is clear that the opponent will come directly to the goal!"

Zhang Shujie retreated and decided to line up the human wall with his teammates, this kind of free kick that can directly hit the goal, players with height, good bounce and good bounce must be the first choice of the human wall. In addition to Zhang Shujie, Yan Tao, Romagnoli, Chen Zihua, Antonelli, and Montolivo also came up to act as a human wall.

Donnarumma stood at the left post of the goal, looked at the position of the ball in the human wall, and then shouted to Yan Tao: "Yan, a little to the right, about two steps away!

Ronaldo began to take a big stride back, measuring his steps, and after about three steps, he stood in place with his hands at his sides and his legs apart in a compass position. This action has become the iconic action of Ronaldo to take the free kick, so sometimes the football world also calls it "Ronaldo-style standing".

Inzaghi and Zidane looked at Ronaldo intently, the fans in the stands also looked at Ronaldo, Wang Shihan put her hand in her heart, she could feel her heartbeat.

The referee blew the whistle, Ronaldo started, bent over, run, and when he ran to the ball, he picked up his right leg, and Milan's human wall hurriedly jumped, and the ball flew over the human wall and blasted to the upper right corner of the goal.

The ball was fast, Donnarumma moved two steps, the ball was close to the small penalty area, Donnarumma flew into the air and saved, he relied on his hand length, palmed the ball, and lifted the ball out of the goal. However, the ball was lifted to the post, but unfortunately it was held on the inside of the post, and after a bounce between the ball and the post, the ball fell on the goal line.

1:1! Before the end of the first half, Cristiano Ronaldo equalized for Real Madrid! Now the aggregate score of the two teams is 2:1, and Real Madrid leads!

The Bernabeu immediately erupted in loud cheers, and Rowe ran to the stands, strode into the air, spun his body around for a week, and crossed his hands in front of him to volley, letting go at his sides. This is his most commonly used celebration in recent years, whether it looks good or not is another matter, at least such a move is exclusive to Ronaldo, even if other players make it, they think they are imitating Ronaldo.

"Cristiano's free-kick is tricky. Donnarumma also tried his best, how to say that he touched the ball and had to be replaced by another goalkeeper, Ronaldo's goal helped Real Madrid tie the score on the field, and in the aggregate score, it was for Real Madrid to exceed. 'Look at Ronaldo in adversity' is not unreasonable. ”

Zidane had a big smile on his face, he applauded, stood on the sidelines for a while, and then walked to the dugout, although he didn't sit here long before he had to go back to the dressing room.

Zhang Shujie stood in the middle circle and pouted, he was mentally prepared before Ronaldo's free throw, but he still pinned his hopes on the human wall, Donnarumma, and even Ronaldo would knock the ball away. After all, a free kick is not a penalty, and no matter how powerful a free kick master is, it is impossible to kick a free kick as a penalty. But none of that matters now, the score is a draw, and the aggregate score is behind.

Inzaghi felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, his worries became a reality, Ronaldo's free kick was of high quality, and it was no wonder that Donnarumma couldn't save it.

Chen Hui looked at the time, it was already the forty-fourth minute, and it was estimated that the two teams would not organize an attack much. After Zhang Shujie kicked off in the middle circle, the Real Madrid players did not come up to compete for the ball, Milan did not bother to attack again, and the referee kept looking at the watch.

There was no stoppage time in the first half, and as soon as the time came, the referee blew the whistle and did not give a second more.

Now that the first half of the game is over, Real Madrid and AC Milan relied on the goals of the two leading goalscorers, Cristiano Ronaldo and Zhang Shujie, respectively, to temporarily draw 1:1, and in the aggregate score, Real Madrid is temporarily leading 2:1. However, it is not yet possible to determine who will advance to the final between the two teams, and it will take at least 45 minutes to know the answer. ”

On the pitch, the players slowly walked out of the field and towards the dressing room. Fans of both teams in the stands also suspended the "fight", and some fans prepared to go outside to rest, go to the bathroom, or smoke a cigarette.

Romagnoli's face was the ugliest of all the players, and he still thinks that if he hadn't fouled Ronaldo, maybe he wouldn't have conceded the goal, or if he had made the foul a little earlier, maybe Ronaldo wouldn't have scored the goal. He thought about it, and he had reached the door of the locker room, where his teammates were waiting for him.
