The game is over.

The referee blows the whistle for the end of the game.

The Old Trafford stadium was full of jubilation.

Before the end of the game, the fans were mostly on their feet. When the game was announced, Manchester United fans high-fived each other and began to celebrate. They were very happy.

Their side beat Manchester City to reach the last four of the Champions League.

Manchester United have not reached the last four of the Champions League for a long time.

When Louis van Gaal said that "the Manchester United dynasty is behind us and Manchester United should get used to playing in the Europa League", no Manchester United fan could have imagined that just two years later, they would see their side in the Champions League and become the last four of the Champions League.

The fans were so happy.

They looked at the old man in front of the coach's box.

It was his comeback that stopped Manchester United's decline.

They looked at the boy on the field.

It was his arrival that ended the embarrassment of Manchester United's number seven, and Manchester United soared from then on.

Community Shield, League Cup, League, Europa League, 17 consecutive wins, Champions League semi-finals...... Good results followed, and Manchester United fans became the luckiest and happiest group in the world after Real Madrid fans.

Although they are not yet the favourites to win the Champions League, watching Manchester United neatly knock Manchester City down at Old Trafford and advance to the Champions League semi-finals, such a sense of accomplishment and joy still make every Manchester United fan feel extremely proud.

They sang the team's anthem and began to party.

The huge portrait of Chu Ge wearing a crown fluttered in the stands again.

"King of Old Trafford".

This is the best recognition and praise from the fans for this Chinese teenager, the young Manchester United captain.

……

Pep Guardiola is depressed.

He tried to maintain his demeanor, hugging Ferguson and congratulating him on United's promotion.

The coach then hurried to the players' tunnel.

He wanted to be quiet.

Before entering the passageway, Guardiola took one last quick glance at the pitch.

Chu Ge.

That should have been my Messi......

Guardiola felt bitter in his heart.

Manchester United 0:1 in the first leg, 0:2 in the second leg, all three goals conceded, all thanks to Chu Ge. And that player was clearly targeted by him first, and he showed sincerity first, and the first round of offers exceeded 100 million euros.

That player was supposed to be at Manchester City,

but appeared on his opposite, Manchester United.

The strong gap made Guardiola shake his head.

wishful thinking

Start something but fail to carry through

If you had been of the same mind as others

Why bother me to pay the wrong price.

He sighed as his figure disappeared into the tunnel of the players.

……

In the Sky Sports studio, everyone was talking about Manchester United's promotion.

Only Mourinho is watching Guardiola.

Manchester City spent a lot of money to hire Pep Guardiola to coach and spent a lot of money to build a team for him. Now that the league has been overtaken and the Champions League has been eliminated, the coach's next days must be a little difficult.

That's what professional football is all about.

No matter how much glory you've had, if the team has ups and downs and doesn't meet expectations, you're going to get into trouble.

Or even fired.

Mourinho suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Guardiola.

But.

He soon smiled wryly.

'He's also a Manchester City coach. Even if I don't win the title this season, Manchester City may not sack me. And I can only sit here, and what right do I have to sympathize with him. Mourinho shook his head helplessly.

……

The Rome gift package blew up?

Barcelona cracked?

When Chu Ge returned to the locker room, he learned a strange piece of news.

Widely regarded as the least suspenseful team to qualify, Barcelona, one of the biggest favourites to win the Champions League this season, overturned.

At the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, Roma unexpectedly defeated Barcelona with a score of 3:0.

In the first leg, Barcelona won against Roma with a score of 4:1.

As a result, the two-legged aggregate score between the two teams was 4:4, and Roma eliminated Barcelona from the Champions League by virtue of a narrow advantage in away goals.

Big upset!

Congratulations to the world football for the material!

In addition to the Milan Fan Protection Association and the Paris Saint-Germain Fan Protection Association, the Barcelona Fan Protection Association was officially established.

Barcelona is added to the luxury package of the European sauce.

Chu Ge didn't expect such a result.

He couldn't even guess how his friend Neymar was feeling at the moment.

However, Chu Ge can be sure that Messi must be depressed now, and Real Madrid fans will be happy about it.

It's just that none of these have much to do with Chu Ge.

The only thing that has to do with Chu Ge may be that in the next semi-final battle, Manchester United will never meet Barcelona again.

Chu Ge wasn't sure if this was good news or bad news.

Considering that Barcelona were eliminated by Roma, maybe they didn't meet Barcelona, is it actually bad news?

……

After the promotion, the United players briefly celebrated in the dressing room.

Mbappe also played a meme.

He proposed to open a bottle of incense cakes,

and then was pressed to the ground by Chu Ge and "beaten".

Everyone laughed happily.

The atmosphere in Manchester United is still relaxed, cheerful and harmonious.

However, when it's time to relax, everyone can quickly get nervous.

Advancing to the semi-finals is indeed a joy to be had. But after this game, United are still facing a three-tier battle in the league, European competition and FA Cup.

On all three fronts, United have the potential to get good results.

The battle that belongs to them has just begun.

Ferguson watched Chu Ge press Mbappe to the ground and "rub" it, and watched the players of Manchester United struggle in the dense schedule, but he did not intervene. He knows that these players, despite their youth, are mature enough and good enough.

He didn't need to remind them of anything.

He just had to expect what they would get.

In his final season, Ferguson also began to enjoy his final months as a coach. Regardless of whether the ending is happy or not, at least in the mood is =, he is already satisfied.

……

Carrington Training Base.

Greenwood wore a yellow vest and ran aggressively in the team's group training.

He looked a little nervous.

Handling the ball is somewhat out of shape.

Several passes given to him by teammates, the youngster handled them a little unreasonably, either the details of stopping the ball were not handled well, or the pass was too hasty.

This is clearly not the normal level for Greenwood.

Mason Greenwood, nicknamed the king of the ball by Manchester United fans, is one of the best players in United's academy and has featured in the league this season and has been in decent form, which is good from a young player's point of view.

And the stage that really made Greenwood shine was the FA Cup.

Ferguson made a bold rotation in the FA Cup thanks to a multi-fronted operation.

As the main player of the team, Chu Ge basically did not play in the FA Cup. Greenwood, on the other hand, was given plenty of starts in the competition, first alongside the likes of Juan Mata, beating the likes of Derby County, Yeovil Yeovil and Huddersfield, before starting alongside Kylian Mbappe to beat Brighton and help United reach the last four of the FA Cup.

Mason Greenwood has been outstanding in the FA Cup.

He also cherishes the opportunity to play in these games.

However, just today, Greenwood received an unexpected piece of news.

He will start the next league game.

Greenwood looked at Chu Ge.

In today's intra-team group match, Greenwood wore a yellow vest and appeared in the group of the main team. And Manchester United's captain, the idol of the teenager Mason Greenwood, Chu Ge, joined the lineup of the substitute side.

As if noticing Greenwood's gaze, Chu Ge turned his head sideways and smiled at Greenwood.

Forthwith.

Chu Ge suddenly activated, and his vigorous posture was like a cheetah hunting in the African savannah.

Spike!

In three or two steps, Chu Ge caught up with his teammate's pass.

He raised his leg and shot.

Rumble!

The ball rumbled into lightning and went straight through De Gea's ten fingers and into the back of the net.

"Milk to death!"

Teammates praised it.

De Gea turned his head to hold the ball and pretended he had saved the ball.

Looking at Chu Ge, De Gea couldn't help but feel a little happy.

"Fortunately, you don't have to meet Chu Ge in the league, otherwise this day is really difficult." He suddenly felt a little sympathy for his peers in the Premier League.

As a result of the successive shots from the crotch by Chu Ge, Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois even got a very chic nickname: the hen.

Describe the football as an egg, drilled out between Courtois's legs.

De Gea strongly protested against this.

"How can a fan do that to a goalkeeper? It's really too much! ”

"Courtois is a man, at most a rooster, how can it be a hen? The fans are clearly mistaken! ”

Well.

It must be so.

……

The first round of intra-team competition ended quickly.

The players rested one after another, while the coaching staff began to review and summarize the practice match just now, discussing the gains and losses.

Chu Ge took two bottles of water and walked up to Greenwood.

He tossed a bottle of water to Greenwood, unscrewed the cap himself, took a sip, and sat down next to Greenwood.

Greenwood took the water bottle a little shyly and took a sip as well.

"You seem to be a little nervous?" Chu Ge patted Greenwood on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Greenwood nodded a little embarrassedly.

In the training match just now, he was indeed a little nervous, no wonder Chu Ge said this about him.

"Is it because of tomorrow's game?" Chu Ge asked again.

Greenwood continued to nod.

"It's just one game, don't be nervous." Chu Ge said with a smile. He glanced at Greenwood and said, "It's not your first appearance. And, in the FA Cup, didn't you do pretty well? ”

Greenwood scratched his head in annoyance.

"How can the FA Cup compare to the league?" He said.

"It's all competitions, what's the difference." Chu Ge said lightly.

"Of course it's different." Greenwood subconsciously retorted to Chu Ge.

After finishing speaking, the young general was a little apprehensive. He secretly glanced at Chu Ge and saw that Chu Ge was not angry because he was refuted, but looked at him with great interest and encouraged him to continue.

Greenwood had courage.

He finally told him all about his troubles.

'I never thought the coach would start me in the league. Greenwood said, "Even though I've been looking forward to this day for a long time. ”

'From the day I joined the United squad, I dreamed of getting a first-team call-up. If I can play for the first team, or even start, and let me die immediately, I'd love to! The lad said excitedly.

Chu Ge laughed, he patted the young general's shoulder, and motioned to Greenwood to control his emotions.

"In that case, isn't the next game what you're looking forward to?" Chu Ge asked.

Under Chu Ge's reassurance, Greenwood gradually calmed down. He looked at Chu Ge with some embarrassment and continued.

'Yes, I always dreamed that one day I would be able to represent Manchester United and start in the league. But when the day came, I found that I was not ready. ”

'You asked what the difference is between the FA Cup and the league, but the question is, of course the two competitions have different meanings. If you lose the FA Cup, you will be eliminated, although it is a pity, but after all, there are always trade-offs in the three-line battle, and if you are eliminated, I can accept that result. ”

"But the league is different."

"In the league, we are number one! We have a chance to win the championship! We are now 17 wins in a row, and one more win would equal Manchester City's record for the most consecutive wins in the Premier League. ”

"How important you say this game is!"

"Moreover, the gap between Manchester City and us is only two points."

'If we lose, or if we don't win a game, our winning streak will be broken, the equaliser will fail, and the league points will probably be overtaken by Manchester City. You say, how can such a game be comparable to the FA Cup? In such an important game, Ferguson actually let me start...... I...... I ......"

The young general's face was red and his neck was thick, and his emotions became excited again.

It can be seen that he really wants to play, and he is very grateful to the coach for giving him this rare opportunity.

Not all young players can get this kind of training opportunity, and not all coaches are willing to give young players such opportunities.

But because of this, Greenwood is under a lot of pressure.

He was afraid that he would lose his performance.

Betraying the coach's trust in him.

He is more worried that because of himself, the team will suffer heavy losses, lose the opportunity to create a legendary record, and lose the initiative to compete for the championship.

Chu Ge looked at Greenwood.

"To be honest, I envy you a little." He said.

"Ah...... Yes? Greenwood was a little surprised.

Chu Ge smiled.

"You're in luck, really. When I was first in the first team at Real Madrid, I didn't have the opportunity to meet you and I didn't have the luck to get a manager who trusted young people as much as Alex Ferguson. This is your luck, your opportunity. Chu Ge said.

"Remember, the future is always unknown, opportunities always arise by surprise, and no one is ready for everything."

"I'm where I am today because even if I wasn't prepared enough, I took my chance. It sounds hard, but what is even harder than this is to act, to do it, to break through. ”

"Don't be afraid. You've got me behind you. ”

With that, Chu Ge patted Greenwood's head and left with a smile.

Looking at the back of Chu Ge leaving, Greenwood seemed to have a feeling.

People are sometimes blindsided.

I thought that the dark clouds in front of me were huge mountains.

However, this is not the case.

After the dark clouds, it was not darkness, but sunshine.

……

In the following group matches, Greenwood's performance began to improve somewhat.

His mentality gradually relaxed, and he gradually regained his former agility.

United's coaches nodded.

That's what they want to see.

……

April 15th.

Round 34 of the Premier League.

There are only five games left until the end of the entire league.

Manchester United host West Bromwich Albion.

Mason Greenwood started, while Chu Ge was on the bench.

As he came out of the game, Greenwood glanced back at Chu Ge, who smiled at him and gave him a thumbs up.

Soon, the game began.

At the beginning, Greenwood was still a little restrained, and on a few occasions he was not able to handle the ball crisply, and was immediately destroyed by the opponent.

But.

The youngster didn't get nervous for long.

He was quickly back in normal shape.

Looking at him, Chu Ge seemed to see himself.

I think that in the Madrid derby, Chu Ge's performance at the beginning was not much better than Glenwood.

The game was fast.

Thirty-seventh minute.

Manchester United attack.

Juan Mata crosses from the flank, and Greenwood shoots in a wide shot.

The ball is blocked by a defender.

The youngster fired a quick shot and the ball flew into the net.

After the goal.

Greenwood couldn't be more excited.

He pointed at Chu Ge and rushed towards the Manchester United bench.
