On 5 May, Manchester United took on Brighton & Hove Albion.

Brighton & Hove have only been promoted to the Premier League this season and are currently 15th in the Premier League, just four points clear of 18th-placed Stoke City, so they are still in danger of relegation, and they will definitely give it their all in this game.

However, the gap between them and Manchester United is still too big, although they do not admit defeat mentally, but the skills at their feet have been beaten into a sieve by Manchester United.

Ninety minutes later, United won comfortably 5-1.

It's no surprise that United are now winning big.

Since the last two league games are usually played at the same time, all Premier League games in this round are basically over after Manchester United's game, and Manchester City on the other side are forced to draw away by relegation team Southampton.

As a result, United are already three points ahead of Manchester City, and United have a goal difference of seven more than Manchester City, so they are basically locked up in the league title.

In the next game, as long as Manchester United does not lose, they can win the title, even if they lose, as long as Manchester United loses by a small score, Manchester City does not win by a big score, Manchester United can still win the championship by goal difference.

Of course, if they had the same goal difference at the end, United would have finished second, as they have scored and conceded a little less than Manchester City this season.

In the Premier League, the first thing to look at is the points, and if the points are the same, look at the goal difference; If the goal difference is the same, it depends on the number of goals; If the number of goals is still the same, then the two teams will be considered the same in the rankings.

Now there is no problem with the league and Manchester United can focus all their energy on the Champions League and FA Cup, but fortunately both games have come to an end, and there have been no injuries or anything in the United team along the way.

……

On May 9, the second leg of the Champions League semifinals.

The second leg was played first between Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham.

At the Parc des Princes, PSG did not give Tottenham any chances, winning 3-1 at home.

In this game, although Tottenham Hotspur made some responses to Paris Saint-Germain's new formation, Mbappe was already skilled, and after hiding behind Cavani, it was even more difficult to deal with, so he couldn't prevent it at all.

PSG scored two goals thanks to two scalpel passes from Kylian Mbappe, and finally Neymar pulled the space to score the icing on the cake.

In this way, Paris Saint-Germain reached the Champions League final again a year later, this time in the semi-finals, they eliminated Tottenham Hotspur 6-1, a team that had previously eliminated the previous champion Juventus.

Paris Saint-Germain's performances also put some pressure on Manchester United and Barcelona's players.

On May 10, Manchester United visited the Camp Nou to take on Barcelona.

On their home turf, Barcelona were much better than in the first leg and more fluid in attack.

However, under the containment of Shen Peng, they still failed to completely break Manchester United's defense.

At the end of the first half, the score was still 0-0 on both sides.

Manchester United is naturally satisfied with this score, even if this score continues until the end, Manchester United will advance because of the aggregate score advantage.

In the second half, Barcelona's attack was more ferocious.

However, the attacking intensity has also caused them some problems, and that is that their defence has been tested by United on several occasions.

It was all the individual performances of the players that kept Manchester United from scoring.

If it goes on like this, it's hard to guarantee when Manchester United will score a goal.

In fact, they don't have a choice, now they are still two goals behind on aggregate, so they have to attack, if you attack, there is a chance to live, and if you defend, it's like waiting to die.

They did find their chances, and in the 62nd minute, Barcelona played the ball to the feet of Andres Iniesta after a series of passes.

Iniesta is now at the age of retirement, but his game experience is even richer, and I saw him go straight to Messi in the running position!

Messi did not stop the ball, but passed the ball again the moment he got the ball.

Once again, the ball found Suarez with precision.

Suarez didn't waste the chance he did in the first leg this time, only to see him go straight to the difficult action, swinging his leg and shooting, and the ball flew into the far corner.

The angle was so tricky that even though De Gea did his best to make a save, he didn't touch the ball.

Barcelona took a 1-0 lead at home and the fans on the sidelines cheered as if they saw hope of victory as they needed one more goal to knock out Manchester United on away goals!

However, reality has dealt them a heavy blow.

It's true that Barcelona have a superstar like Messi, but Manchester United also have players like Shen Peng who can score goals whenever they have the chance.

Shen Peng also played his role at this time, only to see that in a scramble, he directly cut off the ball at the feet of Paulinho, who was a little sticky, and then broke through the two defenders all the way, and then shot with one kick, and the ball flew into the Barcelona goal.

Seeing this goal, the fans who had been cheering for the team were quiet for a moment.

Now, Barcelona need to score at least two more goals to have a chance of qualifying!

And, once Manchester United score one more goal, then Barcelona will have to score at least four goals to ensure that they are not eliminated!

Now there is no team on earth who dares to say that they can guarantee a clean sheet against this Manchester United team!

The situation in Barcelona suddenly became dire.

In the 78th minute, Manchester United scored again.

It was Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who scored this time.

This goal also sent the hearts of the Barcelona players completely sinking to the bottom of the sea.

Now the two teams are five to two on aggregate, and Barcelona will need three more goals to level the aggregate score, but even if they do, Manchester United will advance with away goals, so they must score at least four more goals!

With less than fifteen minutes to go, they may not be able to score four goals even against the average La Liga team, let alone a strong team like Manchester United?

Valverde also made a substitution at this point, bringing on Coutinho for Andres Iniesta.

Andres Iniesta is no longer fit enough to complete a high-intensity match, and the fans on the sidelines applauded the man who helped the team score in the game.

The substitution didn't solve the real problem, and Coutinho's arrival failed to help the team come back from defeat.

However, towards the end of the game, Barcelona still scored a goal to make the score 2-2 draw.

But there is no point in a draw now, they have to score three more goals to knock out Manchester United.

In the end, Manchester United defeated Barcelona 5-3 on aggregate to meet Paris Saint-Germain in the final.
