"It's the first round of Group H of the 2012/2013 UEFA Champions League group stage, and Manchester United will make their Champions League debut at Old Trafford against Swiss Premier League side Basel. While Basel may be good and eager to repeat last season's glory, they are now facing a stronger and more in-form Manchester United! Alex. Sir Alex Ferguson's team will not trip over the same stone! Sky TV commentator Mortensen was briefing everyone on the situation of the game, and although Mortensen's tone was more polite than that of the players who had interviewed Basel at the airport, there was still a hint of arrogance: there was almost no suspense that Manchester United would win this game.

A close-up of Jiang Chenxi's face appeared on the monitor screen in front of him.

It was a very young face, with black hair, thick eyebrows, and clear eyes under long, slightly curly eyelashes.

"This is Basel's top scorer, the 20-year-old Chinese striker Jiang." Mortenson smiled and said, "I have to say, this is a very handsome young man. ”

There was a burst of laughter in front of the TV.

……

Chinese.

In a bar somewhere.

"Wow, that's handsome."

The girls let out a cry of amazement.

Tang Xiaoya shouted, "Handsome." ”

Liu Yang coughed, "Reserved, reserved!" ”

This is a football event organized by the 'Dawn of Light' fan club, which is held simultaneously in three major cities across the country.

He and Tang Xiaoya are in charge of the magic capital, Lao T is in charge of Guangzhou, and 'Angry Shuke' and 'Flag Flying' are in charge of Beijing.

After the fans who signed up for the meeting met at this bar, they found that many of them were female fans.

This also made some male fans happy, this is a good opportunity to get rid of the single.

……

"The game is about to begin." CCTV commentator Duan Xuan's voice sounded, "This is Jiang Chenxi's first official Champions League game, and I am as excited as everyone else." In the previous Champions League qualifying rounds and play-offs, Jiang Chenxi scored seven goals in the three games he participated in, making him the player with the most goals in qualifying. ”

At this time, the starting lists of both sides were once again played on the TV screen.

"Let's take a look at the starting line-up of both sides, Manchester United, goalkeeper David De Gea, right-back Valencia, left-back Patrice Evra, centre-back combination of Rio Ferdinand and Evans, according to the news we just received, during the pre-match warm-up, Nemanja Vidic was injured, so Manchester United urgently arranged Evans to replace him."

……

Old Trafford, Manchester United dugout.

Old man Ferguson sat in his seat, chewing gum in his mouth.

Vidic's sudden injury was an accident, which made Ferguson a little worried, and he was not worried about this game, but Vidic's injury.

The combination of Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic is a guarantee for United's defence and Evans may still be up to the task against the likes of Basel, but in three days' time, United will be away to Liverpool in the league and if Vidic does not recover from injury, the centre-back combination of Ferdinand and Evans will be severely challenged.

How to identify a top centre-back? Compare Vidic with Evans, the former is a fighter and the latter is a scholar; Nemanja Vidic's physical prowess and experience will undoubtedly make an extra contribution in most of the competitions. Evans is still at the level of not making mistakes, making long passes as accurate as possible, and not reaching the top level of the Premier League. Evans, who was born in '87, is 25 years old, and Ferguson has always been looking forward to Evans, but at present, Evans' development is far from meeting Ferguson's expectations.

However, Evans has been in good form recently, and Ferguson is still relatively relieved for this game.

……

'In midfield, No. 17 Nani, No. 8 Anderson, No. 11 Ryan Giggs, No. 14 Hernandez.

"Rooney 10 and 20 Van Persie up front."

"Obviously, in this game, Manchester United's tactics are to show their attacking ability as much as possible......" Just as Duan Xuan introduced Manchester United's starting lineup, referee Svensson from Sweden blew the whistle for the start of the game.

Manchester United kick off first.

Wayne Rooney played the ball to Robin van Persie, who sent it back.

"Hernandez, he passed the football to Anderson, Jiang Chenxi went up to force it, a long pass!"

Manchester United didn't make any temptations, didn't slow down, and rushed to attack at the kick-off.

……

Anderson played a long ball and sent the ball straight to the wing.

There, the veteran Ryan Giggs stopped the ball with a beautiful chest and drove straight along the wing.

Basel right-back Marcus. Steinhofer came up to intercept.

After Giggs dummered a shot, he directly crossed the football sideways, and Rooney came to answer it.

The ball made a transition at United's number 10 and Wayne Rooney made a gesture to dribble forward, but with a flick of his ankle, he sent the ball down the left again.

Then people saw Hernandez plug in at high speed.

……

"Beautiful! Manchester United started with a fierce attack! This is Manchester United, go on, tear through Basel's defence with a fierce attack! Mortenson exclaimed excitedly that the game was getting into a fast pace at the start, which was the commentator's favorite.

Hernandez's sudden forward disrupted Basel's defence, and they seemed unprepared for the aggressiveness of Manchester United's opening game.

Defender Fabian. Frey hurried over to keep an eye on Hernandez.

Hernandez moves quickly at his feet, Fabian. Frey didn't dare to make a move, but could only keep retreating.

Meanwhile, in the box, Wayne Rooney, Robin van Persie, Anderson and Ryan Giggs were all cutting in at high speed.

"Keep an eye on them!" Basel goalkeeper Sommer was a little nervous and shouted loudly to direct the backline.

Hernandez flicked the ball inside, then sideways, and shot directly at the goal!

He didn't intend to go down the cross in the first place!

All he thinks about is shooting!

……

This shot was very sudden!

The shot is powerful!

Football is roaring.

Sommer didn't dare to hold the ball and punched the ball out.

The football fell in front of the goal.

Van Persie rushed to the football and shot straight away!

At a crucial moment, Basel defender Alexander. Dragovic blocked the ball with his body on the goal line to keep the ball out.

Then, the veteran Kovac kicked the ball off the line with a big kick and finally put an end to United's attack temporarily.

Basel's defenders were nervous, and no one expected the United team to attack so fiercely at the beginning of the game.

……

The stands at Old Trafford erupted in cheers and applause, with United fans applauding the team's opening attack.

"Nice offense! Hernandez's shot was very decisive and intelligent, Basel was clearly ill-prepared, and Van Persie's scramble almost broke through Basel's goal! Mortenson exclaimed.

"Corner! Manchester United's corner, it's a very good chance to score! ”

In the media table, British reporters were excited.

'I have a hunch that Manchester United will get a big win. Owen, a reporter for The Guardian, said, "Guess what the score will be? ”

"Three to zero!" Manchester Evening News reporter Pierce said with a smile.

"I guess it's four to zero, hahaha." Said his colleague Strauss.

Hearing the smug laughter of the British reporters, the Chinese reporters around them were a little silent, they thought that the match Basel would be very difficult, but they did not expect the game to be so difficult at the beginning.
