Chapter 478 - Unable to describe in any words
Taking advantage of the chaos after Manchester United conceded a goal, Real Madrid launched several waves of attacks in a row.
In the 51st minute, Manchester United had just restarted the game when it was cut off by Real Madrid. After several passes, it was handed to the feet of Ricardo.
Ricardo tried to break through and split the ball down the left, where Marcelo picked up again, this time with a seemingly crossed, but the ball was higher than the previous one. Van der Sar didn't dare to be careless and tucked the ball over the crossbar.
Raul takes a corner and Diarra scures it in the middle and the ball goes just over the crossbar.
1 minute later, Real Madrid made a comeback, this attack was launched from the right side, Kaka received the ball on the side, dribbled the ball at high speed and crossed, Raul's header rubbed back, Licardo dangled a shot in the middle, and Marcelo, who was unguarded at the back point, shot the ball high.
After successive attacks to no avail, Real Madrid slowed down their offensive slightly. After all, players are not robots, they can also feel tired, and it is impossible to stay high all the time.
United took the opportunity to launch a couple of attacks, but none of them worked well.
Sir Alex Ferguson looked at the pitch with a blank face, his eyes deep.
Manchester United are behind, but the 1-2 score is not unacceptable, and they can progress as long as they can play Real Madrid 1-0 at home.
However, Ferguson's thoughts at this time are not to keep the score, but to score more away goals.
After much consideration, he replaced the inactive Anderson with Hargreaves, who had not yet recovered from his injuries.
Hargreaves' organizational skills are naturally much stronger than the immature Anderson, but his confrontation ability is not as good as Anderson's, and his running ability is also poor.
Ferguson let him drag back, sitting between the two centre-backs to play the ball forward, and moved Carrick forward for him to fight for it at all costs.
Real Madrid's side is not without its hidden dangers. Both Ricardo and Raul were injured slightly, and in the 60th minute, Raul couldn't hold on and was replaced by Robben.
In the 62nd minute, Ronaldo was brought down by Ferdinand in a scramble, this time he clutched his knees and did not get up, rolling on the grass in pain.
Pellegrini's face was not good-looking, and Real Madrid's team doctor immediately came in to lift Ronaldo down, and after a brief diagnosis, shook his head at Pellegrini.
Manuel Pellegrini had to make a substitution right away, with teenager Gonzalo Higuain coming on.
Ricardo put down his worries about Ronaldo and continued to play.
Regardless of Ronaldo's injury, he has to win this game first.
In the 66th minute, Marcelo took a corner kick to the edge of the penalty area. Ricardo staged a spectacular scene, standing in place, raising his leg high, his left leg slamming like a whip on the football, and his body spun violently in half a circle. The difficulty of this shot is comparable to that of Zidane's out-of-the-box performance in the Champions League against Bayer Leverkusen.
But the difference is that the Flying Immortals scored a goal, and Ricardo's shot was lightly scanned by Van der Sar's arm, and the bottom line was magically beaten.
The crowd couldn't help but stand up and applaud the shot, and even the United fans were amazed by the spectacle.
In this moment, Ricardo is not their enemy, but a magical star who gives them a huge visual impact and allows them to witness the beauty of football with their own eyes.
Seemingly stimulated by Licardo's performance, United soon launched a wave of attacks, Ronaldo cut inside on the left and shot hard, Casillas pounced bravely and flicked the ball with his fingertips, and the ball hit the post and went off the line.
There was a gasp from the stands.
"Cristiano Ronaldo and Ricardo are really the two brightest on the field today!" The narrator exclaimed.
Ricardo frowned, crossed his hands on his hips, and stood in place and moved his right ankle. The action immediately made the fans nervous, and Pellegrini couldn't help but stand up.
Now that the team has lost Ronaldo, if Ricardo goes off with injury again, today's result is not very easy to say.
Luckily, after moving his ankle a little, Ricardo was able to run again, still looking nimble.
In the 72nd minute, Rooney shot from the edge of the penalty area and was blocked by Heinze. Guti immediately kicked the ball forward, Ricardo dropped back to meet it, and Hargreaves kept pushing behind him.
When the ball landed in front of him, Ricardo stretched out his leg to catch it, and the ball came to a smooth stop, and he immediately knocked the ball with his right heel, and he quickly turned and passed Hargreaves.
Hargreaves was not fast in the first place, and the injury was not yet healed, and he was unsurprisingly thrown away by Ricardo.
Scholes chased back and ran from the side, while O'Shea immediately moved closer to the middle and tried to link up with Scholes to keep Ricardo out.
Ricardo adjusted his direction slightly, and when O'Shea came to him, and Scholes ran to his flank and was ready to make a tackle, Ricardo made a flick of the tail with his left foot and broke through O'Shea's right-hand side, but Scholes couldn't brake and nearly collided with O'Shea.
This tail flick is not particularly beautiful, after all, it is done in high-speed running, not as stretched, graceful, and samba as Ronaldinho does this movement, but it is practical enough.
After passing O'Shea, Ricardo immediately accelerated, and when he was two positions ahead of O'Shea, he immediately cut inside and blocked O'Shea's catch-up with his body.
O'Shea was naturally not polite at this time, and prepared to pull the ball from behind Ricardo with his hands and feet. Even if you can't get the ball off, you have to use your body contact to break up Ricardo's dribble.
But after Ricardo staggered two steps, he immediately stabilized his body and continued to accelerate towards the penalty area.
Scholes gave up the chase and ran towards goal, ready to defend the other Real Madrid players.
O'Shea chased after him, and Brown stepped forward to block.
Three or four steps away from Brown, Ricardo began to pedal.
This kind of cycling at high speed made Brown very nervous, because every feint could become real at any time, and he had to put his hands behind his back and keep backing away.
After stepping on it four times, Ricardo flicked the ball to the left with his left foot, which was obviously unexpected by Brown, who thought in his heart that Ricardo would flick the ball to the right and shoot with his right foot.
But how could it be possible to stick to this point with the fact that Ricardo's left-footed technique was not much inferior to his right-foot?
After plucking the ball, he followed and shook Brown away in the blink of an eye.
He was getting closer to goal and shooting from a smaller angle. Instead of rushing into action, Van der Sar bent down with his hands outstretched, ready to jump or kneel to catch the ball.
Ricardo glanced at him and decisively fired a left-footed shot at goal.
Van der Sar immediately threw himself to the side, but he was halfway through his movements and realized that Ricardo was not trying to hit the far corner, nor was he going to shoot the near corner, the football was coming down his crotch!
In desperation, he immediately knelt down and tried to block the ball with his knees.
But it didn't work, the distance was too close, and his reaction was half a beat slower! The ball had rolled under his crotch and into the goal line!
"Licardo Goalllllllllll!" The commentator couldn't hold back his passion anymore and shouted like a fan for half a minute, "This is a goal that I will remember for a lifetime!" Ricardo ran wildly across the half, beat 4 people and scored the ball! Speed and skill, flawless goals! Come and see God, everyone! At this moment, he is the god on the football field! ”
"I regretted that I didn't witness Maradona's deeds and goals on the spot, and I didn't see Ronaldo's alien masterpiece on the spot! But now I see this goal, it's worth it, it's worth it! ”
"Cristiano Ronaldo was great! Kaka is amazing! Messi is very talented! Ronaldo is the king of the ball! But this moment of Ricardo cannot be described in any words! ”
