After Manchester City regained the scoreline, Barcelona launched a fierce counterattack.

For a time, the La Liga giants also pressed Manchester City a little embarrassed, and Modric also fouled Iniesta and was warned by the referee with a yellow card, which was also the first yellow card of the game.

But soon, Alves also fouled Cristiano Ronaldo and received a second yellow card.

As the game deepened, especially after entering the 60th minute, although the two sides still insisted on attacking, they began to show a little fatigue, after all, the fast-paced attack lasted for an hour, even an iron man would be unbearable.

What's more, there is still half an hour left in the game.

There was a stalemate in the stadium for the time being, but in the executive VIP box, everyone was chatting enthusiastically.

But the topic has nothing to do with the much-anticipated Champions League final, but with an earthquake that will detonate European football.

Qatar Investment Authority will acquire Paris Saint-Germain.

"At present, the terms have been basically negotiated and are expected to be completed in early June. Tamim said confidently.

He is more envious of the Abu Dhabi consortium's acquisition of Manchester City, because two years have passed, and this investment has proved to be worth a thousand dollars, especially in the past two years, foreign capital has continued to pour in, the value of European football players has skyrocketed, and high-level stars are hard to find.

At least, no matter how much money PSG invests, it is impossible to replicate Manchester City's frenzied recruitment of superstars, and it is difficult to reproduce the shocking effect that caused a sensation around the world.

This also made Tamim feel a little disappointed, because the Qatar Investment Authority's acquisition of Paris Saint-Germain has only one purpose, advertising effect.

However, fortunately, Tamim also got a definite message from Mansour, as long as Manchester City wins the Champions League, Gao Han is likely to leave Manchester City, which undoubtedly gives Paris Saint-Germain an excellent opportunity to start.

It's just that Paris Saint-Germain only won the fourth place in Ligue 1 this season, missed the Champions League, and could only participate in the Europa League, and also lost to the champion Lille in the French Cup final, which made Tamim a little dissatisfied, but helpless.

If PSG hadn't been weak, they wouldn't have been able to sell so cheaply, would they?

Mansour also smiled slightly when he heard that Tamim had almost successfully acquired Paris Saint-Germain, "Have you found the new management team?"

Tamim smiled slightly, pointed to a middle-aged Qatari man who looked to be only about forty years old next to him, and said: "Nasser will be the president of Paris Saint-Germain, as for the general manager and technical director, Jorge introduced me to two very good candidates, we are in contact, if we can, basically negotiated." ”

Mansour glanced at Mendes and sighed in his heart, what a shrewd businessman.

If the candidate he recommended is officially appointed as the general manager and technical director of Paris Saint-Germain, then it will be easy for Mendes to send his players to Paris Saint-Germain in the future.

And for the Qatari consortium, it is also a very good deal, which can use Mendes's connections and channels to quickly assemble an experienced management team and build a competitive team, as for the little money lost for this, they are not taken into account at all.

What's more, there's more to their real purpose than that.

Qatar has just won the right to host the 2022 World Cup, but this has plunged the small Middle Eastern countries into a huge dispute, because they defeated the United States and the United Kingdom, two traditional powers, this time, so from the very beginning, many media have exposed the shady bid for the World Cup, and the Middle East is not suitable to host the World Cup.

For example, not long ago, a French media published an article reporting that Qatar had serious bribery and black-box operations during its bid to host the World Cup, including French President Nicolas Sarkozy.

The media published a photo of French President Nicolas Sarkozy, Tamim and UEFA President Michel Platini having dinner together, and revealed that this took place during the World Cup bid, and before dinner, Platini and UEFA's attitude was to support the United States, but after dinner, Platini changed direction and switched to Qatar, which eventually contributed to Qatar's successful bid to host the World Cup in December last year.

Soon after the successful bid, the Qatar Investment Authority also announced that it would invest in a well-known French nuclear energy group.

During the bid for the World Cup, Qatar also invested 10 million euros and invited many football celebrities such as Zidane to serve as bid ambassadors, which further increased the outside world's doubts about Qatar's bid for the World Cup.

Recently, in France, the Qatar Investment Authority has also caused a huge response, in addition to the acquisition of Paris Saint-Germain hype, Qatar Investment Authority-owned Al Jazeera beIN Media bought out the broadcast rights of the French league at a high price of 90 million euros per year, and at the same time, BeIN Media also announced that it will compete for the 2013 La Liga broadcast rights bundled auction.

Interestingly, the president of Bein Media is Nasser Halaifi, who will become the president of Paris Saint-Germain.

Tamim obviously doesn't care about all kinds of doubts from the outside world, because he believes that these voices will soon fade away, and what he really wants to do is to continue to enhance Qatar's influence in world football, maintain this popularity, and pave the way for the 2022 World Cup.

So, they chose to buy Paris Saint-Germain, but this is just the beginning.

There are still eleven years to go until the Qatar World Cup, and they will continue to invest in Paris Saint-Germain, striving to build this Ligue 1 team into the top team in Europe and become the most eye-catching and dazzling golden sign in Qatar.

"Abidal is dying!"

Standing on the sidelines, eyes glued to the pitch, Pep Guardiola easily spotted Abidal at the back.

In recent times, Barcelona launched a crazy counterattack against Manchester City after falling behind by one goal, and the front field continued to launch attacks, first Iniesta passed, Ibrahimovic got rid of Xavi Martinez and fired a low shot in the penalty area, which was saved by Cech very bravely, and then Alves set up on the right side, and after a delicate combination with Messi, the Argentine's low shot was blocked by Kompany and cleared with a big foot.

And the most threatening thing is in the 66th minute, after Iniesta and Xavi combined one-two, Ibrahimovic won the ball at the edge of the penalty area and shot directly, fast and urgent, and the angle was also very good, but Cech once again lifted the Swedish center's shot over the crossbar with one hand, which was able to resolve another crisis.

Pedro then burst to the bottom line on the left and crossed back, and Iniesta followed up with a shot that went straight into Petr's arms.

Barcelona pressed Manchester City for ten minutes, but never been able to break through Manchester City's goal, which made Guardiola a little anxious on the sidelines, but more apprehensive, especially when he saw Abidal bending over hard, with his hands on his knees, which made him feel a sense of foreboding.

The game is 70 minutes into the game, and if Manchester City score again at this time, it will be a really desperate game.

"Let Adriano go warm up. Guardiola admonished in a deep voice.

Assistant coach Vilanova also noticed Abidal's situation, listened to Guardiola's words, and did not agree, turned around and walked directly to the bench, asking Brazilian left-back Adriano to warm up quickly, while he himself quickly followed, constantly introducing the current situation to Adriano.

For this player, Barcelona has only one attitude, not to seek merit, but to seek no fault.

As long as he can hold on, then the mission is complete.

"Abidal is almost consumed. ”

On the side of the Manchester City coach's box, Sergio Garcia held an Apple tablet and approached Gao Han.

Abidal's stats are clearly listed above, and after analysis, the conclusion is that the French left-back is already a little overwhelmed.

At the end of the day, this game is too much to consume.

Gao Han's eyes narrowed slightly, noticing the movement on the side of the Barcelona coach's box, but quickly looked back at the court.

'Tell them to try to give the ball to Sanchez. ”

"Understood. Brian Kidd immediately walked to the sidelines to deliver Gao Han's instructions.

…………

…………

Soon, City launched a counter-attack.

The ball was passed to Sanchez's side, and the Chilean winger quickly dribbled along the right flank to get into the box from the right side of the box, but Abidal was desperate to defend and he was forced to return the ball.

Kaka curled a shot from the edge of the box just wide of the top right corner.

Although this counterattack did not work, it still made Barcelona break out in a cold sweat.

Whether it is the coaching staff on the sidelines or the players on the field, everyone knows that it is now at a critical moment in the game, either Manchester City will score another goal and Barcelona will be completely finished, or Barcelona will equalize and turn the situation around.

So far, the game is not just a simple technical and tactical contest, but also a test of willpower and desire to win, and neither side will give in easily.

Two minutes later, City attacked again, with Alexis Sanchez picking up the ball on the edge of the box but being tackled down by Abidal, and referee Kasse signalled it to be a successful defence and denied Sanchez's foul appeal.

A minute later, the Manchester City attack came back and it was still passed to Sanchez.

The Chilean winger took the ball and faced Abidal one-on-one, suddenly activated, got rid of the French left wing-back, and crossed underneath.

But the cross was a little too close to the goalkeeper, and Valdés stepped in to take the ball away and defuse a crisis for City.

Manchester City did not seem to have any intention of retreating, still pressing Barcelona in the half.

All the fans in the stadium also realized that the game was at a critical juncture, and everyone was anxiously watching the stadium.

Valdés threw the ball and Barcelona passed it quickly, but Manchester City launched a press in front, forcing Barcelona to move the ball wide, and it soon fell to the feet of Manchester City.

Javi Martinez controlled the ball and re-crossed it back into the Barcelona half.

After several tosses, the ball still fell to the feet of Sanchez on the right, but this time after Sanchez got the ball, he didn't wait for Abidal to get closer, and quickly crossed to the front of the penalty area.

Pique returned to defend in time, blocked between Kaka and the goal, and did not give Kaka any angle to kick the goal, while Puyol next to him also stepped forward in time to pinch the goal.

But at this time, they saw that Kaka was bold, and after calmly stopping the ball in the penalty area, he suddenly rubbed his right foot against the ball, rubbed a half-high ball, and passed the ball through the gap between Pique and Puyol and fell to the left side of the goal.

And Cristiano Ronaldo didn't know when, shook off the right-back Alves, chased to the goal like a bolt of lightning, faced Kaka's rubbing the ball, judged the fall, leaned over and jumped to the top,
