After a fifteen-minute half-time break, the two teams returned to the pitch and exchanged venues before the second half of the game officially began. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Villarreal didn't know what was happening in the home dressing room at half-time, but at the start of the second half, they felt that United were a little different from the first, and the most intuitive sense of this change was that their attacking progress began to become difficult, and even passing and receiving the ball was not as easy as in the first half.

Manchester United increased the intensity of the whole field, except for the goalkeeper, almost every player is running on the field, they are very fast, often as soon as the away team players receive the ball, they pounce on it, although it may not be able to break the ball, but this entanglement and interference, but the away team's passing coordination has been repeatedly frustrated.

And their defensive movements are also more resolute and ferocious, close to the pressing, grabbing, pulling, lame, and even direct ferocious collisions, in short, all the intention is to disrupt the away team's attack, so that the opponent's offensive is no longer fluid.

The effect was clear, as Villarreal quickly got bogged down in the quagmire and it was difficult for the attacking team to pose much of a threat to the home side.

Pellegrini, who was on the sidelines, was keenly aware of the changes in Manchester United, and his brows furrowed tightly, and then he was quickly relieved. If the attack is frustrated, it will be frustrated, since it can no longer suppress Manchester United as in the first half, then it will switch to attack, after all, his team now has a two-goal lead, and there is no need to go to the opponent with great fanfare.

Of course, this is not to say that Pellegrini is afraid of Manchester United, in fact, the game has been carried out so far that he and his team have completely played with momentum, and they are full of confidence to win this Champions League debut in the new season.

Turning offense into defense is just a strategic retreat, and you can't hit it hard, and you can't create much of a threat, so what about defensive counterattacks? As long as Manchester United are not willing to lose, then they must pull out the attack, as long as they attack, the backfield will be open and flawed, and that is the moment when Villarreal counterattacks to show their power.

Of course, even if there is no further goal, as long as they can hold on, then Villarreal can still take all three points.

It can be said that Villarreal, who has two goals in hand, has a very favorable situation and is almost invincible.

Assistant Mr. Ruben soon spread the manager's new tactical intent to the players on the pitch, and Villarreal's line began to be purposefully reclaimed.

And Manchester United's offensive also gradually rose up at this time.

In the 51st minute, Giggs broke through and crossed at high speed on the left wing, swept the football into the penalty area, and Berbatov at the back post beat Gonzalo to grab the ball first, but unfortunately his header shot went straight off the post.

Two minutes later, C. Ronaldo suddenly changed direction and dribbled straight into the middle, Capdevilla was thrown away, and the Portuguese sang all the way, and at about 25 meters in the penalty area, he directly kicked the goal vigorously. Diego. López was focused, leaping sideways to save the ball off the line.

In the ensuing corner, Ronaldo managed to grab a point, but his shot was too good and López was on guard, and the football was held in his arms.

The effect of Ferguson's hair dryer was very powerful, and the stimulated Manchester United players became extremely frantic on the field, with a resolute momentum that would not give up until the opponent's goal was broken.

However, Villarreal's defence was layered and the players were focused on the game, and despite the gradual decline on the pitch, the defense remained watertight and did not give the home side too many great chances to score.

The atmosphere at Old Trafford came alive again, with the first half suppressed by Villarreal and conceding two goals, leaving the home fans silent. And now the team has burst out with a completely different mental outlook than before, as well as a resolute attacking attitude, which in turn suppresses the opponent, which makes the hearts of the fans burn hope.

Shouts and applause rang out one after another, like a tidal wave.

The commentators at the scene couldn't help but sigh: "Manchester United is Manchester United, worthy of the name of the Red Devils." No matter how difficult the situation is, Ferguson's team will not give up easily! The resolute fighting spirit they showed was enough to make every audience enthusiastic! ”

Another commentator sighed: "Obviously, Sir Alex Ferguson's hair dryer worked well in the dressing room at half-time. But what I'm trying to say is, will it be too late for Manchester United to wake up? If they had that attitude in the first half, they wouldn't have been two goals behind now. ”

"Don't underestimate Manchester United. Remember the Champions League final in '99? This is a team that is good at doing miracles! Until the last minute, no one knows what the final result will be, and who dares to pat their chests and pack tickets, Manchester United will definitely lose the game? ”

While the commentators were talking, the situation on the field suddenly changed. As one commentator said, Manchester United is a team full of magic, and Old Trafford is a place of miracles, and at this moment, Manchester United has changed the passive situation in an instant.

In the first half, Cristiano was inactive, and it can even be said that he couldn't find a figure. Ronaldo became extremely active in the second half, not only breaking forward with the ball many times, but also frequently shooting upwards.

At this moment, Mr. Double of the Ballon d'Or and world football finally shines with his own light.

In the 59th minute, the Portuguese superstar received a ball from teammate Michael Carrick on the right flank, and his individual performance officially began.

He first shook off Riquelme with his outstanding explosiveness, and in the face of the submarine captain Senna, who came over, he made a continuous bicycle movement with a very fast frequency, and Senna was not deceived by his dazzling movements. But C. Ronaldo's action was too fast, when C. Ronaldo stopped pedaling the bicycle and pulled the ball with his left foot, Senna decisively broke the ball, but he didn't expect that after pulling the ball with his left foot, C. Ronaldo quickly flicked the football with his right foot, and then shook Senna in an instant, and then rushed forward with the ball at high speed.

"Cristiano! Cristiano! Dazzling action! Dizzying action! ”

"Quick! It's so fast! The Portuguese played tricks enough to make their opponents despair! ”

"Last season's Premier League King was not for nothing! The main defender of the Spanish national team, in front of C. Ronaldo, is not worth mentioning! ”

The pitch erupted in loud cheers, all applauding Cristiano Ronaldo's brilliant performance this time in a row between the two. And in the next moment, such a sound went up a step, like a flash flood, and the whole stadium seemed to be shaking.

"Watch out for his breakthrough!"

"Follow him!"

'Don't be distracted, he might pass the ball and there are Manchester United players running!'

C. Ronaldo's breakthrough almost destroyed Villarreal's midfield defence, and the entire back line was exposed to Manchester United's attacking guns.

Senna, who was thrown away, shouted to his teammates to warn, Cazorla was trying to chase back, Van Bizhuang and others were following the Manchester United players who were running, and C. Ronaldo's eyes kept drifting around in the high-speed dribbling, and he was observing his teammates in the running.

It's just that it's just a deceptive action.

From the middle all the way forward, C. Ronaldo did not pass the ball in the end, and at a position of about 30 meters away from the goal, C. Ronaldo, who was running, directly raised his feet and swung his legs, and with the help of the inertia of rushing forward, he pumped all the strength of his whole body on the football.

"Shoot—"

"From Cristiano. Ronaldo's shot on goal...... A super long-range shot from 30 meters from goal! ”

"Is the Portuguese provoking Villarreal's number 23 in this way? In the first half, Van Ke scored a beautiful long-range goal, and now, Cristiano is fighting back in the same way! ”

C. Ronaldo's violent long-range shot was extremely unexpected - to be exact, Villarreal's players may have thought that C. Ronaldo would shoot from a distance in an open place, but they were equally powerless, and the defense in the middle was penetrated by the Portuguese, even if they wanted to go up to make up for it, it was too late for a while.

All the away players had their eyes on the soccer ball flying in the air.

A white line continued to stand still, drawing a straight line without rotation, and scurrying straight towards the restricted area.

The angle is not tricky, what it wins is power! Immensely powerful power!

Even though the football was flying in the air, it seemed that everyone on the scene could feel the low whistling sound.

Diego. López's reaction was not slow, and he threw his body out as soon as the ball was in the sky. But his movements were still useless after all, and the football whistled and hit his right palm, but it was castrated, broke through the glove, and plunged headlong into the net.

1:2!

With Cristiano Ronaldo's near-solo goal, United pulled one back and were just one point away from leading Villarreal.

The cheers from the crowd became frantic and fiery, with more than 70,000 home fans chanting "Cristiano. Ronaldo", screaming frantically with excitement.

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! GOAL! The ball is in! A shocking violent long-range shot! It was ...... who scored the goal Cristiano...... Ronaldo! ”

"The Double Footballer of the Year showed his worth and played the role of a hero when the team needed it the most! Great! ”

"The stats are out! Unbelivable! Unbelivable!! Unbelivable!!! Twenty-nine meters away from the goal, the speed is 103.32 kilometers per hour! This is a super heavy artillery in the absolute sense of the word! ”

"Cristiano! Cristiano! The Portuguese has become the brightest star of Old Trafford at the moment! ”
