Chapter 303: The Big Fat Cantona Says
βGlory glory Man United~ Glory glory Man United~ And the LIL go marching on !on!on.οΌβ
The second half was about to kick off and as soon as the players entered, the Reds fans were singing from the stands. It's just that "Red Devils Go Forward" was changed to "LIL Go Ahead".
The chorus of 70,000 people shook the world.
Liu Yun walked into the arena and said to Ibrahimovic: "Listen, this is the voice of the city of Manchester." They were expecting our goal. β
Yibu patted Liu Yun on the shoulder: "Let's kick the goal of Basel together, old lieutenant!" β
At the beginning of the second half, Basel still put on an all-out defensive posture. With the exception of striker Dumbia, the rest of the players returned to their own half to participate in the defense.
Manchester United's side has grown wisely, in addition to Bailly dragging behind in the back, the old captain Valencia also prevented Basel's counterattack in his own half.
Basel coach Fisher has a clear idea. It's just a group game, not a do-or-die battle. It's a surprise to be able to get 3 points at the Theater of Dreams, and 1 point is also a victory! Now the team has a one-goal lead anyway, and it is to defend it. Even if you concede a goal, it's acceptable to draw it!
In the first 10 minutes of the second half, Manchester United still had no way to beat Basel's bucket king. You can only threaten Basel's goal with a long-range shot or a low cross.
The Manchester United veterans in the grandstand box were a little anxious.
Giggs looked at his watch: "There are still 35 minutes." It's not the way to go. β
Cantona, who was already a big fat man, picked up a cupcake and said to Ryan Giggs while eating it: "In my experience, the first goal is the most important thing in a dense defense against a weak team. As long as you can score the first goal, you can score the second and the third. It's a law. β
Giggs was silent, but thought in his heart: "Brother Teacher, Brother Teacher, aren't you talking nonsense? The question is now that LIL is collectively dumb, when will the first goal be scored? β
Ryan Giggs is actually skeptical about the ability of the "LIL" combination. He believes that the media has recently held "LIL" too high, which is not a good thing. The Guardian is even more bold in predicting that "LIL" will surpass "BBC" and "MSN" in previous seasons. Isn't it possible for the media to tout LIL in just one league game against underdogs Southampton make the three unsightly, arrogant and dismissive of their opponentsγγγγγγ
However, less than 10 seconds later, LIL dispelled Giggs's doubts with a gorgeous performance!
Marcus Rashford hands the ball to Ibrahimovic on the wing. Although Ibu is a big man, he has extremely delicate dribbling skills. He dribbled past Basel defender Kumatt on the right side of the penalty area to form the break.
Ibrahimovic broke all the way to the bottom line of the small penalty area, picked up the ball, picked up the pass!
The old central defender Liu Yun has a height of 1.85 meters, and he jumps to compete for the top in the small penalty area! He fought for the first landing point!
Basel goalkeeper Waclik is ready to make a save! He thinks that the 40-year-old Chinese in front of him will definitely head the goal!
Liu Yun shook his head! But it's not a head-to-head attack! It's a head-to-head ferry!
At the moment when Liu Yun jumped just now, he had already found that Lukaku was unguarded on the right side! Basel's backline has been close for almost 60 minutes, but at this time it is a sloppy! They're leaking in defense! Lukaku's location is excellent!
When Liu Yun jumped, he was thinking that if he could fight for the first point, he would ferry the header to Lukaku.
Old lieutenant header ferry! The ball fell to Lukaku at the back post.
Romelu Lukaku, despite being a black and hard striker, has a keen sense of opportunity and goal. How could he let go of this opportunity so easily!
He shot from a 45-degree angle in the small penalty area!
With such a distance and a powerful close-range shot, even if Basel goalkeeper Vazlik is possessed by Yashin and Kahn, he can only look at the ball and sigh!
The ball goes straight to the net! The ball is in! 1οΌ1οΌ Manchester United equalis!
"Yay ~~~~~~~~~~" Dream Theater is in a boil!
The big-mouthed Dunphy explained: "LIL's exquisite cooperation in the front court! Ibrahimovic's breakthrough cross, the old lieutenant's header ferryed, and Lukaku completed the fatal blow! Perfect goal! A perfect fit! LIL's Stern-style submachine gun is finally starting to swallow the Fire Snake! β
Romelu Lukaku didn't celebrate alone after scoring. Before coming to United, he was a 24-year-old who didn't know how to share the joy of scoring goals with his team-mates.
Over the years of playing with the old lieutenant, he has come to understand that sharing the joy of scoring goals with his teammates is far more exciting than having it alone!
Lukaku ran up to Liu Yun and Ibrahimovic and whispered a few words.
Then, the 70,000 Red Devils fans at the Theatre of Dreams saw a scene that made their blood surge.
LIL, Lukaku, old lieutenant Liu, Ibu, the three of them put their hands on each other's shoulders and rushed to the stands side by side!
The celebration of the LIL group told the fans that there is no intrigue between the big names and the big names in this group, they are brothers. They share the joy of scoring goals with each other by teaming up to score goals. They are united! Such a united, selfless, and mutually fed forward combination is sure to tear apart all opponents' backlines!
In the box, from Sir Charlton, to Dennis Law, Ferguson, from Cantona to Giggs and Scholes, they all couldn't help but give a standing ovation!
Ferguson proudly said in front of Sir Charlton, an old-timer: "Sir Charlton, the old lieutenant applied for a labour certification when I was present at a hearing at the Ministry of Labour to testify for him. I told the old men at the Department of Labor that Liu was a great player and deserved to be a great Manchester United. His performance has proven me right! In the goal just now, he could choose to head directly at the goal, but he selflessly gave the ball to Lukaku in a better position... β
Charlton said, "Yes, Liu reminds me of my late brother, George Best. That's how he fed me in the opponent's penalty area. β
The midfielder kicks off again. Whether it is the 70,000 fans at the Theater of Dreams, the fat Bob in the commentary box, the big-mouthed Dunphy, or the veterans of Manchester United in the box, they all firmly believe that Manchester United will be able to score again and overtake the score!
The super fat Cantona put a bouzzard in his mouth and said to Giggs as he ate, "Ryan, what am I talking about?" The first goal was the most crucial. Look, after scoring the first goal, LIL will definitely fire like a submachine gun and score the second and third goals! β
Scholes leaned over and said to Cantona, "Brother Eric, you're absolutely right. But can I give you a piece of adviceγγγγγ Can you control your diet and eat less desserts? It's not good for your health, really. β
Cantona touched his gray beard: "I'm in my 50s, I should do something I love to do, and eating is my favorite thing to do right now." β
As Cantona expected, just five minutes later, LIL created another chance in Basel's penalty area!
