Chapter 275: The New Hero of the Dream Theater
On the big screen of the Dream Theater, the score of 0:2 is particularly eye-catching. The atmosphere in the stadium stands was particularly oppressive.
On the west stand of the Dream Theater sat two old Chinese people - it was Liu Yun's second aunt and second aunt. Isabella and Liu Xiaoyan were by their side.
The second aunt asked Liu Xiaoyan in a low voice: "Yan Yan, why don't these foreign devils next to us look very happy?" β
Liu Xiaoyan replied: "Cough, second aunt, you don't understand." Now Manchester United is 2-0 down. These are all Manchester United fans, so of course the team will be unhappy to be behind! β
Trailing 2-0, the morale of the players in the Manchester United team was low. Morale is not something that captain Valencia can bring up with a few slogans.
As the clock ticked by, United's attack did not improve at all.
Ferguson, who was in the box, told chairman Woodward: "In my experience, if you can't get a goal back in the first half, you can't win in the second half. At most, you can get a draw. β
Woodward looked at his Swiss gold watch: "It's been 43 minutes. God bless Manchester United! β
As soon as Woodward's words fell, the situation on the field changed abruptly!
Pogba broke the ball in midfield and he kicked it wide and played a long ball to Marcus Rashford on the wing.
Marcus Rashford, who was born in 97, is Manchester United's rising star! He is a native of Manchester and comes through the Fletcher Moss Rovers side under Manchester United's youth system. He is the youngest player to score in a European competition. They also hold the record for the youngest appearance at a European Championship in England.
When Van Gaal was in charge of Manchester United, it was revealed that Van Gaal was embarrassed to write high school homework for Rashford.
The 97-year-old demon king is known as Manchester United's wide speed maniac.
Marcus Rashford used his pace to sprint down the flanks.
The entire Manchester United offensive line has collectively stepped in to deal with the demon king Rashford.
Marcus Rashford crosses. The ball fell to Mkhitaryan at the edge of the box. Mkhitaryan is preceded by the sturdy Leicester captain Morgan.
Morgan blocked Mkhitaryan's angle. In desperation, Mkhitaryan knocked the ball across to Liu Yun at a 45-degree position at the edge of the penalty area.
In front of Liu Yun was the evil man of Fox City, Bena Luan.
The moment Liu Yun received the ball, his body leaned forward with his center of gravity, creating the illusion of dribbling towards the right side. He then swept the ball lightly with diplomacy, and at the same time, the outside instep hooked the ball in the opposite direction with a cutting position.
It's a standard bull's tail.
Benaluan was shaken by the forty-six-year-old guy in front of him, and he couldn't find the north. His defensive center of gravity is all on the right side, who would have thought that Liu Yun hooked the ball to the left.
Liu Yun went forward to the ball, and he was about to form a breakthrough!
Benaluan had no choice but to pull someone to foul!
It was a foul on the edge of the penalty area, and the referee awarded a free kick at best.
Benaluan thinks it's better than letting the old guy break straight into the box and take on goalkeeper Schmeichel Jr.!
Benaluan is an experienced 87-year-old veteran.
Unexpectedly, Liu Yun took the lead the moment he was pulled by Benaluan! Less than 0.1 seconds after the ball was kicked, Liu Yun was pulled down by Benaluan.
It's a boccia ball with a tricky angle. The ball goes straight to the bottom right corner of the goal.
Leicester City's goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel Jr. is too far to the left! The ball rolled out of an arc on the ground and went straight into the bottom right corner of the goal!
The ball is in! 2:1, in the 43rd minute of the first half, the old lieutenant Liu Yun shot a boccia ball at the front of the penalty area to pull back a point for Manchester United!
"Yay~~" The entire Dream Theater immediately boiled!
The Red Devils fans jumped and shouted wildly. Countless team scarves were tossed into the sky.
In the west stand, the second aunt said to the second aunt: "Aha, what's wrong with them? Like a frightened chicken in our apple orchard! β
The second uncle-in-law replied: "It's not a problem, the chickens and dogs are jumping, and they scare me." β
Liu Xiaoyan and Isabella hugged each other, and she turned to her second aunt and said, "Second aunt, you don't understand." My dad scored! β
Liu Yun ran frantically in the direction of the West Stand after scoring the goal. A group of Manchester United stars heard Liu Yun in the dressing room before the game that two of his Chinese relatives came to the West Stand of the Theater of Dreams to watch the game today.
Pogba, Rashford, Lukaku, Matic and other stars followed Liu Yun to the direction of the West Stand.
Then, Liu Yun and a group of stars bowed towards the West Stand!
Liu Xiaoyan said excitedly: "Second aunt, second aunt and grandfather, look, they are bowing to you!" β
The second aunt said timidly: "Bow to me? This can't be helped, so let them stop bowing! β
The 70,000 Red Devils fans at the Theater of Dreams shouted in unison: "Old Lieutenant! Old lieutenant! Old lieutenant! β
In the box, the old man Alex Ferguson stood up like a regular fan and applauded Manchester United and the old lieutenant Liu Yun.
Mourinho in the coach's seat jumped up like a toad and accidentally swallowed all the gum in his stomach!
In the last minutes of the first half, the gap was reduced to one point, and there was still a good chance of equalizing or overtaking in the second half.
Leicester City's villain Benaluan shook his head in annoyance. He is regretting that his pull range is not greater and more decisiveγγγγγγ As long as you hold the old guy in his forties 1 second early, the goal will not go in.
Benaluan's frustration was yet to come.
The referee had just seen his malicious pulling, but the offense was advantageous and there was no penalty.
Now the referee ran up to Benaluan and pulled out a yellow card straight to him! Benaluan is really losing his wife and his soldiers.
Midfield re-serves.
The morale of the entire Manchester United team was boosted by the goal of the old lieutenant Liu Yun. They firmly believe that under the leadership of the old lieutenant, Manchester United will be able to stage a Jedi counterattack!
The first half went into stoppage time.
The first half ended with Jamie Vardy's long-range shot hitting the anti-aircraft guns.
1:2, Manchester United is 1 goal behind Leicester City at home.
Manchester United's dressing room.
Mourinho chewed gum and said to the players: "In the first half we were very unsuccessful in defending Shinji Okazaki. The side road has almost become his free corridor. In the second half, Blind, you focus on Shinji Okazaki. Up front, Marcus Rashford's pace was used to tear through Leicester's defence from the flanks. β
Mourinho pointed at Liu Yun again: "Also, once the Foxes players form a dense defense in their penalty area, give the ball to the old lieutenant more!" He's an expert at breaking down dense defenses! β
Anyone who plays football knows one sentence: breaking down dense defence is a worldwide problem.
However, Mourinho regarded Liu Yun as an expert in breaking dense defenses, which is the biggest affirmation of the old lieutenant!
The fans of the Theater of Dreams sang a new battle song specially written for Liu Yun during the intermission: "There is only one old lieutenant in the world, he is unique, he leads the Red Devils to victory!" β
Liu Xiaoyan said to her second aunt and grandmother: "Second aunt and grandmother, listen, these people's songs are singing my father." β
The second aunt and grandmother were a little deaf by the thunderous singing: "Who is singing?" Is it your dad? Why? β
Liu Xiaoyan said proudly: "Because my dad is the hero in the hearts of these people!" β
