677. The bells and whistles are not as fatal as one blow

Ferguson was calm.

When a team chooses to take an offensive approach, they always take some risks as a result.

For example, being scored first by the opponent, as it is now.

This is a perfectly normal thing.

Ferguson has long been used to it.

Long enough to turn a young man from grandson to grandfather, Ferguson has seen too many of these scenes.

The team fell behind, which was a bit surprising indeed.

Roma's counter-attack wasn't an absolute chance, but they seized on the occasional space in United's defence and made it lightning fast through the brilliance of star Dzeko and Nainggolan.

Conceding a goal made Manchester United very passive.

They allowed Roma to score an away goal.

This means that it is no longer possible for this game to be a draw and therefore to go to a penalty shootout. If United are to progress, they must win this game and win against their opponents.

Manchester United have run out of options.

Fans are worried about it.

Media analysts are analysing whether United will be eliminated by the goal conceded to end their Champions League campaign this season.

But Ferguson wasn't worried.

He looked at Chu Ge and the outstanding young people on the field.

He knows that his children won't worry about it either.

Because they're trying to do everything well, trying to do their best to finish their game, trying their best to get the best result possible.

That's enough.

Sometimes, hard work doesn't always pay off.

It's like on the football field where it's not always the better, stronger teams to win the game.

Life is like a ball game, and unperfection and regret are also part of it. People have to learn to accept it and look forward.

Ferguson is old.

He knew his coaching career was coming to an end.

But his children are different.

Chu Ge, Kylian Mbappe and Marcus Rashford are teenagers, N'Golo Kante, Virgil van Dijk and David De Gea are in their prime, and Ferguson believes they all have a brilliant and bright future. Even if they stop on this night, even if they may suffer setbacks in the future, Ferguson is confident that his boys, the United kids, have a bright future.

Because they're so good!

It's like the 92 class that Ferguson personally brought out.

even

Maybe it's better than those young people back then.

……

The minutes and seconds of the game passed.

It's been more than 60 minutes of the game,

And the score is still 1:0.

Roma take the lead.

Two-thirds of the way through the 90 minutes, United still haven't recovered their scores. With less than thirty minutes remaining, they had to score two goals to salvage the situation.

The situation of the game was clearly even more unfavourable for Manchester United.

In a phrase that Chinese fans are very familiar with, that is: there is not much time left for Manchester United!

What to do?

The United fans in the stands became anxious.

If they could, they would even like to be able to jump off the stands and hold the Roma players and immobilize them to help their team win the game.

It doesn't matter if you pay the price of a lifetime ban.

However, just as the waters of the Pacific Ocean can't be poured out, fans can't really interfere directly with the game.

So, they could only sit helplessly in the stands, fold their hands, and pray.

Expect God protection.

Expect a miracle.

……

Di Francesco raised his wrist to look at his watch.

A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The situation in front of him is even better than the coach imagined.

He has deduced countless times how much trouble, what a problem, what a dilemma he and his team will encounter in this game at Old Trafford.

However, nothing he feared happened.

His team is taking the lead.

Di Francisco was satisfied.

He couldn't have been more satisfied.

After the reversal of Barcelona, the coach's prestige reached a peak. And now, leading Manchester United at Old Trafford has taken his career to the next level.

If he and his team get a win here,

No

A draw is enough,

Then he will make history, create his common history with Rome.

Roma have not reached a Champions League final in 38 years since losing to Liverpool in 1984. If they knock out Manchester United today, it will be the first time in 38 years that the Red Wolves have reached the final stage of the Champions League, and the club has reached the final of the Champions League for the second time in its history.

At the same time, it will also be Di Francisco's first Champions League final.

He will go straight into the history of Rome and become a hero of the Eternal City, a meritorious feat in the history of the club.

Di Francisco was excited.

He wore glasses and stood on the sidelines politely, looking at the court, like a student waiting to be revealed.

No one asked about the cold window for ten years, and once the title was known to the world.

Di Francisco couldn't help but raise his wrist again to look at his watch.

……

Swish!

Like a shooting star, the football grazed the beam, crossed the goal, and flew to the stands behind the goal.

Looking at the distant football, Nainggolan touched his head.

He had some regrets.

If this long-range shot can be lowered a little bit and the flight path of the ball is more ideal, he is sure that it will be another goal.

Although it is slightly worse than the goals that resemble the batigoal on TV, Nainggolan believes that the difference is not much.

Thinking of Chu Ge, Nainggolan glanced back.

He soon found Chu Ge.

Nainggolan smiled.

Chu Ge can play in the World Cup, as a friend, Nainggolan is happy for him, but at the same time feels a little jealous. Due to his maverick behavior, the Belgian head coach excluded Nainggolan from the national team squad early on, despite the opposition of fans and the media.

This summer, he can only watch Chu Ge play the World Cup in front of the TV.

But.

"It's okay, you're going to watch me go to the Champions League final, aren't you? The thief is always fair to his husband. Nainggolan thought to himself.

He was a little happy.

……

Chu Ge glanced at the football that flew away.

He quickly turned around and didn't see Nainggolan behind him smiling at him.

Chu Ge quickly threw himself into the team's next round of offense and defense, and didn't pay attention to anything else at all.

In his heart, every minute and second left is precious.

Not only Chu Ge, but all Manchester United teammates are also like Chu Ge.

As soon as the ball flew out of bounds, the United players rushed back to where they should have been, ready for the next attack.

When the score was down, they were a little annoyed and a little uneasy.

But when the game is going on, no one is paying attention to the score.

They believe that the current game is temporary.

Even if they are falling behind.

The captain once said at halftime that hard work may not necessarily succeed; Giving is not necessarily rewarding.

The current difficulties are actually a normal thing.

In past games, Manchester United's players have also experienced it. They anticipated difficult games and were prepared for falling behind.

Even, if they do lose the game, they will not complain or blame each other.

Because that's life, that's football!

however

Everyone is still trying.

You can accept failure, but you can't accept not to work hard or fight.

"We went through a year of competition to get to where we are today. The championship trophy is just around the corner. We crave victory, we crave trophies, that's glory, that's glory. There's no reason why we shouldn't fight for it, fight for it, until the last minute, until the last second. ”

"I'm going to fight for it. Until the end. ”

"For the finals, for myself."

"In order not to regret it."

A strong spiritual belief and an obsession with victory and honor made Chu Ge and his teammates very focused on the game.

They forget the timidity of losing, overcome the exhaustion of their bodies, and run.

Running.

For victory.

……

De Gea didn't opt for a big kick-off.

Then his team will probably lose possession.

After setting up the football, De Gea quickly passed it to Van Dijk in front of him.

Virgil van Dijk dribbles forward.

When a Roma player approached, he passed the ball to his team-mate, then quickly ran to the open space and waited for his team-mate to pass the ball back to him.

After a few rounds of passing, Van Dijk approached the midfield with the ball.

Manchester United's defenders exchanged passes to each other, breaking up the formation of Roma's front-line players. Seeing that they could not effectively stop the advance of the Manchester United defenders, the Roma players simply began to shrink into their own half.

Van Dijk faced less pressure.

He made a short pass forward and the ball was handed to N'Golo Kante.

With his back to a Roma player, N'Golo Kante touched the ball and handed the ball to Van Dijk again.

That's when Mbappe came back.

He dropped back into midfield, stood near the touchline and reached for the ball.

It was a similar scene to the previous one when we conceded the goal.

It was also Mbappe who pulled back to get the ball, but when he tried to break through with the ball, the ball was snatched up by a Roma player. Roma launched a counter-attack on the spot, De Rossi played a long pass, Dzeko headed back to the spot, and Nainggolan blasted a shot into the net.

Now Mbappe is pulling back again to ask for the ball.

Van Dijk didn't hesitate.

He played the ball to N'Golo Kante.

Kante didn't look at it, pushed the arch of his foot, and kicked the ball again.

The ball made a turn in front of N'Golo Kante, bypassing N'Golo Kante and Nainggolan, who had come to press, and went straight to the side of the pitch and rolled in front of Mbappe.

Mbappe started instantly.

Like a cheetah ready to go.

He rushed to the side of the football in three or two steps, easily controlling the football in front of him.

De Rossi ran towards Mbappe.

Soon, the two met.

Mbappe took the ball and faced De Rossi again.

He left a little on his left foot.

The football stopped at his feet and Mbappe was facing De Rossi. De Rossi is like a big wall, blocking Mbappe's forward line.

The left foot was quickly raised, the center of gravity shook, and observing De Rossi, Mbappe suddenly dropped his left foot, as if it was just a simple shaky. And just as the left foot fell, Mbappe suddenly exerted force, passed the football to his right foot with his left foot, and pushed with his right foot, and the football immediately bypassed the right side of De Rossi's body that had just stopped.

Taking advantage of De Rossi's unstable center of gravity, Mbappe suddenly started with lightning and bypassed De Rossi with the ball.

In the blink of an eye, Mbappe got rid of De Rossi.

He made the breakthrough!

"Matthews feints!" Chu Ge's eyes lit up.

As the two stars on the planet who are best at Matthews feints, Chu Ge recognized this extraordinary move the moment Mbappe broke through.

"Good learning."

Chu Ge praised Mbappe as he sprinted forward.

Mbappe's action was decisive and crisp, quite in his style.

This is obviously the result of many observations and many exercises.

Call!

There was a burst of exclamation at Old Trafford.

Fans were amazed by Mbappe's handsome movements. They applauded and applauded Mbappe.

Although I sweated in my heart, after seeing this extraordinary action that resembled Chu Ge, the fans couldn't help but start praising it: "Isn't this learning from our captain?" It's pretty much like learning! ”

Mbappe: ......

……

Mbappe has excellent mental qualities.

He was not affected by the last mistake, and when the opportunity came, he still confidently took reasonable actions and made a successful breakthrough.

After passing De Rossi, there was no hindrance, and Mbappe's speed suddenly increased.

He followed the left flank and pushed forward quickly.

Immediately, another Roma player followed, chasing and intercepting Mbappe.

I'm a lot of people.

Roma formed a numerical advantage over Mbappe locally.

However, Mbappe is not afraid of crowds. He used another Matthews feint to quickly cut through the middle of the two Roma defenders and complete another breakthrough.

Huli fancy.

Mbappe immediately made the Roma defenders nervous.

And when the third defender, standing in front of the penalty area, Rudiger, who was guarding the defensive line, sprinted forward, ready to reach out to block Mbappe, even if it was a foul to keep Mbappe on the side, Mbappe suddenly chose to pass.

Rudiger's scramble suddenly revealed the gap behind him.

Mbappe just sent the ball sideways there, in front of Roma's penalty area.

Chu Ge rushed to the scene.

In the face of the pass, he picked up his legs, did not make any adjustments, and shot straight at the goal.

Rumble!

"Alison closes the door!"

Di Francisco subconsciously shouted.

He wanted Alison to stop the football.

however

Alisson on the goalline didn't react.

Switch to this goalkeeper's point of view,

When the football flew from under Chu Ge's feet,

A flash of lightning flashed.

The wind was blowing, and Alison looked back, and sure enough, the football was there.

The bells and whistles are not as lethal as a single blow.

"How could he ...... so fast"

……

Rumble!

Old Trafford shook.

"Chu - Chu Ge - CHUUUUUUU-"

The fans jumped and cheered, red flames flowed in the stands, and the whole stadium seemed to be colored again.

Chu Ge, let the red come back!

He is a hero again!
