Chapter 343

As soon as Manchester United's match against Real Madrid ended, Shen Peng focused on another quarter-final game next door.

At this point, PSG are 3-1 up at home and their game is still in stoppage time, so it seems that they have lost more time during the game.

There were no surprises in the final moments, as PSG won 3-1 against Manchester City to give them the upper hand in the first leg of the tie.

The three-to-one score makes people marvel at the strength of this Paris Saint-Germain team, they and Manchester United are the same score to win the opponent, to achieve a two-point advantage, but Manchester United is away, Paris Saint-Germain is at home, the next leg Paris Saint-Germain is relatively difficult to play.

The next day, two matches for the other four teams started at the same time.

After nearly two hours, the two teams also competed in the results.

Chelsea lost 2-1 at home to Barcelona and have a second leg at Camp Nou, so they are already on the beaten track.

And Tottenham Hotspur also won 2-0 against Dortmund away from home, in the West** Stadium, even though the Dortmund fans are very powerful, but there is a gap in the strength of the two teams, plus Kane is also in excellent form in this game, completing two goals, so Dortmund has to accept the bitter consequences of defeat at home.

With the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals all over, teams are back in their respective leagues to prepare for the second leg of the quarter-finals a week later.

……

On April 14, in the 34th round of the Premier League, Manchester United hosted West Bromwich Albion.

Ibrahimovic has rotated in this game and there have been too many important games recently, so Ibrahimovic's fitness and experience will help in these tournaments, and against this opponent, it will not be difficult for Manchester United to win even without Ibrahimovic.

When Ibrahimovic rotated, Manchester United switched from a "4-4-4 formation" to a 4-2-3-1 formation, so that Shen Peng and Aubameyang could also reduce their physical consumption in this game, but even so, the impact launched by the two of them after occasionally picking up the ball made West Bromwich Albion's defenders miserable.

In the end, Manchester United won 2-0 to extend their winning streak in the league.

……

On April 19, in the second leg of the Champions League quarterfinals, Manchester United hosted Real Madrid.

In the previous day's two games, Tottenham won 2-1 at home to Dortmund, eliminated the opponent 4-1 on aggregate and advanced to the semi-finals; Barcelona beat Chelsea 3-1 at home to eliminate their opponents 5-2 on aggregate and advance to the semi-finals.

So the Premier League has already had a team in the semi-finals, and Manchester United is now likely to reach the semi-finals, and if Manchester City can beat Paris Saint-Germain in the other game next door, then there will really be three Premier League teams in the Champions League semi-finals.

In this regard, the British media naturally made a big fuss.

As soon as the game began, Real Madrid attacked.

Now, they are two goals down and this game will have to score at least three goals!

If they only score two goals, even if they don't let Manchester United score, the two teams will be tied on aggregate and Manchester United will advance by away goals!

However, Manchester United's side seemed to have anticipated that Real Madrid would have their backs to the water, so they defended solidly at home and played patiently, and the Real Madrid players wanted to be fast, so they slowed down the progress with back-and-forth passes.

Real Madrid's players played hard.

If Manchester United were to be a normal team, Real Madrid would still be able to rely on a strong midfield to press, force the opponent's pass errors, and then intercept the ball to attack.

But Manchester United can't, Manchester United has two fast horses on the side, and Shen Peng's personal ability is also strong, so they must divide some players to keep an eye on Shen Peng and Aubameyang at all times, if they don't care about them, to force it, once Manchester United finds an opportunity, pass the ball to Shen Peng, it is likely to be a goal - with Shen Peng's current ability, this is very easy, and many teams that underestimated him before have suffered.

As a result, Real Madrid had to watch as Manchester United's players slowed down.

Of course, this does not mean that they do not have a chance at all, after all, Real Madrid's players are among the best players in the world.

In the fifteenth minute, Asensio cut off Aubameyang's ball through active scrambling before Aubameyang received a pass from his teammates and didn't have time to turn and accelerate, and then passed straight to Ronaldo in front!

Cristiano Ronaldo dribbled the ball all the way, and when the Manchester United players came to defend, he made a diagonal pass to Casemiro, who did not shoot himself, but found the opportunity and passed back to Ronaldo who was running.

Cristiano Ronaldo found the right opportunity and fired a shot into the far corner, but the ball was slapped out by the reflexes De Gea.

Seeing De Gea's performance, Mourinho breathed a sigh of relief.

If the goal had been replaced by another slightly worse goalkeeper, it might have gone in.

After all, Real Madrid is still a well-established team, and even if they do not perform well in the league this season, they are still very competitive in the Champions League.

Mourinho hurriedly commanded the players not far from him, telling the players not to be careless and pay attention to defending Ronaldo.

In the 32nd minute, Shen Peng took the ball all the way to the bottom line, because the players of Real Madrid defended him very tightly, so he had no chance to cut inside.

However, after going under, he still penetrated with the ball.

Carvajal stared at Shen Peng, facing Shen Peng's bottom, now all the team defenders who may be facing Manchester United know that Shen Peng has a trick to turn around, and these two skills were to play Manchester City's defenders twice.

This is naturally Lever's turn.

Because under normal circumstances, when other teams defend Shen Peng, they have at least two players, so if you use Lihua to turn around, although it is easy to pass the first, it is also easy to be cut off by the second player who makes up for the defense.

So Shen Peng rarely uses this trick now.

Of course, even if he doesn't use this move, the opponent's defense against him is not small at all.

At this time, Shen Peng knew that it was not good to break through Carvajal, so he directly got up and passed to the middle!

The ball flew in the middle of Ibrahimovic and Marcus Rashford, which made the Real Madrid defenders stare at him, who is this going to pass to?

Because they all know Shen Peng's arc pass, it may be passed to Rashford or Ibrahimovic!

As a result, Real Madrid's two central defenders, Ramos and Nacho, defended one by one, trying to limit Manchester United's attack.

However, they also found a problem, which is that Ibrahimovic and Rashford seem to be a little less positive?
