The matchup between Barcelona and Manchester United is considered a replica of the 08-09 Champions League final, a match of Manchester United's revenge on Barcelona. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 It is a pity that the star of Manchester United at that time, C. Ronaldo, has now transferred to Real Madrid, and Manchester United is now led by Wayne Rooney.

If we were to make the simplest comparison of strengths, Barcelona would clearly have the upper hand. But football is not such a simple math problem.

First of all, Manchester United is at home, and secondly, Ferguson's rich coaching experience, as well as the strong resilience of Manchester United, all offer a lot of possibilities for this game.

And this time Fletcher will be on the pitch. After losing to Barcelona in the last Champions League final, Alex Ferguson believes that Fletcher's absence is a key impact, and if Fletcher is there, he will form a defensive line in midfield to contain Barcelona's midfield.

Now it's up to Fletcher to really have the ability to deal with Barcelona's formidable midfield.

Fletcher used to be a defeated player under Chu Zhongtian, and Chu Zhongtian once won against Barcelona's midfielder alone, so it's hard to say who wins and who loses between Fletcher and Barcelona's midfield.

If he was a little unconvinced when Fletcher and Chu Zhongtian faced off before, then after watching the Champions League final between Chu Zhongtian and Barcelona, he was convinced.

Before the match against Barcelona, Ferguson specially showed Fletcher his edited highlights of the Champions League final between Hoffenheim and Barcelona, so that Fletcher could learn how Chu Zhongtian dealt with Xavi, Messi and Iniesta.

Manchester United will have to establish an advantage at home if they want to qualify for the final, otherwise the second leg will be at Camp Nou, and Barcelona will be left to play.

The game was more intense than everyone thought, and in order to contain Barcelona's midfield, Manchester United appeared aggressive defensively. Ferguson seems to have learned the lesson of '09 and is no longer polite to Barcelona. Fletcher was like a mad dog on the pitch, harassing Barcelona's players and squeezing their living space.

Ferguson used foul tactics in this game, and frequent fouls kept the game always interrupted. Barcelona's attack simply could not be organised.

The match attracted the attention of the whole world, if not less than the Champions League final. But this kind of competition is clearly not satisfying.

A lot of people are starting to curse Manchester United's foul tactics.

Ferguson couldn't hear such scolding, but the Old Trafford stadium was full of curses against Barcelona.

Perhaps elsewhere, Barcelona is a respected and welcoming team, with the likes of Messi, Xavi and Villa, Andres Iniesta and others cheering and applauding everywhere they go. But in England, in Manchester, they were greeted only by boos and all sorts of English foul language.

It's not like a ball game, it's more like a war.

Real Madrid managers Jose Mourinho and Chu Zhongtian watched the game in front of their respective televisions in their respective homes.

Neither Barcelona nor Manchester United could be their opponents in the Champions League final, and Barcelona are also opponents in the next round of the league.

They will have to be aware of the recent form of these two opponents and perhaps find some way to deal with them from this game.

For the average fan, the game has so far been nothing to watch, because fifteen minutes have passed without even a decent shot on goal, let alone those more exciting shots.

However, in the eyes of Chu Zhongtian and Mourinho, the value of this game is quite high.

Fans watched wonderful goals and offense and defense, while Chu Zhongtian and Mourinho watched a tactical contest.

This is a direct wrestling between two master managers, and it is a very meaningful game to learn from.

This destructive style of play by Manchester United has made Barcelona very uncomfortable, and their attack has also suffered.

However, Manchester United are very accustomed to this kind of English hard-hitting play, they did not compete with Barcelona on the ground, and directly used long passes and hanging when attacking, which is considered outdated.

Rely on body and speed to attack Barcelona's backline.

Barcelona had a Piqui out, with no height advantage at all at the back and a weak air defense.

With Wayne Rooney and Dimitar Berbatov batting, United finally scored.

In the 27th minute, Dimitar Berbatov assisted and Wayne Rooney scored with a header.

There was a huge cheer throughout Old Trafford.

※※※ Actually, Chu Zhongtian is very contradictory. He really wants Barcelona to reach the final so that he can beat Barcelona again in the final. It's a lot better than having them stop in the semi-finals.

No matter how many times he plays against the best team on the planet, he won't get bored.

Although he didn't like Barcelona, now that Manchester United was ahead of Barcelona, he was worried about his sworn enemy.

There is a kind of "you can only die in my hands" sentiment...... at the end of the first half, the score was 1:0, and Manchester United at home was ahead.

The TV commentator kept praising Manchester United's successful containment of Barcelona. Although this process is not very beautiful, football is about results, as long as the result is good, then everything you have done before is right, as long as the result is not right, then no matter how beautiful you have done before, it has become a mistake.

Jose Mourinho, the manager of Real Madrid, understands this sentence more than anyone. Real Madrid's football is not pretty, and when dealing with Barcelona, they even do not hesitate to use lethal tactics, using brutal defensive moves to curb the operation of Barcelona's midfield. If they win the match, then the media will be chanting: "Now on Earth against the Barcelona Cosmos, only Mourinho has a way!" Once he loses, it will be a different story, with all kinds of voices criticizing him as "rude" and "barbaric", and celebrities will come out to denounce Mourinho for tarnishing Real Madrid's traditions, a step backwards for the sport of football, and a public enemy of all mankind...... The media and pundits criticize utilitarian football all day long, but who is actually the most utilitarian? Exactly themselves. The winner is the king and the loser is Kou, and they executed this sentence very thoroughly.

※※※ What adjustments Guardiola will make at halftime is probably what everyone is most concerned about.

Pep Guardiola could well see this game as a rehearsal against Real Madrid, whose football is just as aggressive.

If he can find a way to restrain Manchester United, he will obviously be able to restrain Real Madrid.

However, judging by Barcelona's performance in the second half, it seems that he has not found a solution. Manchester United's proactive defensive actions made Barcelona's players miserable, and in the face of United's defence, they could only fall again and again, rolling on the ground in agony.

"I think Barcelona can only count on the referee to suddenly make a move and send Manchester United off four men to win the game!" The commentator in England said with a little sarcasm. Of course, he is not satirizing the brutality of Manchester United, but the exaggerated fall of the Barcelona players to the ground again and again.

Eventually, Fletcher received a yellow card in the 70th minute, which reined in his defence and he made a move.

He was afraid of being sent off for accumulating yellow cards and then missing the second leg or even the final.

As soon as Fletcher's pressing in midfield eased, Barcelona immediately rebounded.

Messi and Xavi are back alive.

Barcelona's attack is starting to come under threat.

In the seventy-fifth minute, just five minutes after Fletcher received a yellow card, Barcelona scored!

Messi used his superb footwork to bring a breakthrough, found the same path in the crowd, and then hit it with a kick.

not only tied the score at 1:1, but also re-tied C. Ronaldo, and the two were tied in the Champions League scorer list.

"The competition is fierce, fierce in all directions! Ronaldo just scored twice in yesterday's game to overtake Messi, who scored a goal today to catch up with Ronaldo! The contest between two of the best players of this era makes our blood surging! ”

Although the game process was not exciting, Messi's goal still made the commentator find the topic.

Chu Zhongtian saw Messi score a goal in front of the TV, and knew that tomorrow's training C. Ronaldo would show disdain for Messi again, and would say to Chu Zhongtian in a half-joking tone: "You must give me a few more assists in the next round, Chu!" ”

The competition between these two people is very interesting, C. Ronaldo doesn't like Messi, and Messi doesn't like the arrogant Portuguese, but the two of them are really chasing me on the football field.

However, Chu Zhongtian did not make such a joke to C. Ronaldo, he knew how much Ronaldo hated Messi, so it was better not to make this kind of joke.

Messi's goal gave Barcelona hope all of a sudden, and their attack became more and more fluid. United's backline, on the other hand, is in jeopardy.

Ferguson was in a hurry, and he roared at the pitch from the pitch to the pitch, and the 'hair dryer' was in full swing at the noisy Old Trafford.

He asked Fletcher to put aside all the mess and focus on curbing the link between Xavi and Messi.

At this time, he missed Chu Zhongtian very much. If Chu Zhongtian had chosen Manchester United instead of Real Madrid, if Manchester United could offer a sky-high transfer fee of 70 million euros, Chu Zhongtian might have worn the Red Devils' shirt?

Now against Barcelona, he is 90% sure of winning the match.

He pursued Chu Zhongtian for several seasons, but he never caught up. Now Chu Zhongtian is twenty-eight years old, and he still has four years left on his contract with Real Madrid, judging from his performance at Real Madrid, it is almost impossible for Real Madrid to sell Chu Zhongtian, and it is almost impossible for other teams to snatch Chu Zhongtian from Real Madrid. His performance after his transfer to Real Madrid proved that he can not only play the main core in weak teams like Metz and Hoffenheim, but also quickly become the main core in super giants like Real Madrid, and he has conquered the discerning Real Madrid fans and the Real Madrid hierarchy, and even the demanding Mourinho. Such a player can adapt to any tactic, any team, even if Mourinho is no longer at Real Madrid, he will still be an indispensable player for Real Madrid.

Such an important player, Manchester United want to get him unless they wait for his contract to expire...... But by that time, will the 32-year-old Chu Zhongtian still be the player Manchester United needs? It is almost certainly impossible for Alex Ferguson to continue to sit in the position of Manchester United manager, and with a new manager, is he still so eager for Chu Zhongtian?

These are unknowns.

It's a pity, Ferguson originally had a very great Manchester United dynasty plan in mind, even if he is gone, as long as Chu Zhongtian can come, Manchester United's dominance in England can continue to continue, and he can win one or two more top trophies in Europe...... Now it's all rotting in the stomach.

※※※ Fletcher regained his toughness, and Barcelona's offensive was quickly contained.

It was Manchester United's home stadium after all, and Barcelona looked timid to play, and Pep Guardiola and his men were certainly affected by the weekend's national derby and looked a bit conservative in this game.

Obviously Pep Guardiola thinks it's good to be able to draw and get an away goal.

The Reds were not to rest on their laurels as they stepped up their late offensive and stormed Barcelona's goal.

And finally it paid off in the eighty-sixth minute.

In the 86th minute, Nani suddenly fired a shot in midfield, Valdés was unprepared for Nani's long-range shot, reacted half a beat slowly, and the ball got into the net before he could reach it.

The goal set Old Trafford on fire, with cheers almost lifting the roof.

Let's not care about being scored by the opponent to get an away goal, at least the victory is gratifying than the draw, and then this long-range shot is really beautiful, which can be called a world wave, which is very morale-boosting.

After the goal, Nani did not celebrate, but just beckoned Rooney, who was in front of him, to pick up the football and continue to organize the attack. Taking a 2-1 lead is not a scoreline to celebrate, and back on their home turf, Barcelona only need one goal to push United to the brink.

If you can, 3:1 is best. Of course, 4:1, 5:1 or something is better. But none of this is realistic, and it is the 3:1 that is most likely to be achieved.

With about ten minutes left before the end of the game, it was not impossible to score another goal...... and Pep Guardiola quickly made adjustments, giving up the attack and strengthening the defence. Now Manchester United's morale is too high, and the slightest mistake could lead to another goal from the opposition. Manchester United's opponents of this level are not comparable to those cats and dogs in the domestic league of La Liga. In La Liga, Pep Guardiola can occasionally hold on to his strength, and in the Champions League semi-finals, at Old Trafford, he didn't dare to let up at all.

Pep Guardiola replaced Pedro with Mascherano and switched to 442, double midfield. Increased control in the midfield.

This adjustment is very timely.

Until the end of the game, despite Manchester United's best efforts, they did not score another goal.

Pep Guardiola had an acceptable result, losing 1-2 away from home, and returning to home was Barcelona's world. Now Pep Guardiola is a little more confident of qualifying for the final.

Now he can put Manchester United behind him for a while and think about how to deal with Real Madrid - which is Guardiola's biggest headache compared to Manchester United, from the opposing manager to the opposing players, everyone is a headache for him.

※※※ Chu Zhongtian turned off the TV and did not go to watch the next press conference.

Barcelona got off to a good start, and although they lost, none of them were injured in the game - don't look at them falling to the ground in pain one after another, but in fact they were not injured, otherwise they would not have come off the pitch and run up and down again.

In this way, Barcelona will be able to put out the strongest squad against Real Madrid.

Chu Zhongtian doesn't care about this, whether Barcelona is the remnant or the strongest team, it's the same, isn't the one he destroyed in last year's Champions League final the strongest Barcelona?

As long as you have this strength, you don't have to worry about your opponent at all.

Mourinho also turned off the TV, and he shared Chu Zhongtian's thoughts that he didn't care if Manchester United could hurt a few Barcelona players, although it did help Real Madrid beat Barcelona. But he doesn't want to be said after beating Barcelona "They can only beat a broken Barcelona, if this and that are not injured and can play, Real Madrid will definitely not be able to win against Barcelona". Of course, the most uncomfortable thing is that such words are still very marketable, and many people firmly believe in this argument - "If so-and-so could play at that time, you would not be able to beat us".

There is no if in football, otherwise, the ball cannot be played, and everyone can say what if. This kind of hindsight is meaningless. It's just that so many people like to play like this. So he wants to complete an impeccable and indisputable victory, at the Camp Nou, face the strongest Barcelona, defeat them completely, pull them off the throne, step on 10,000 feet again, so that they will never be able to turn over, and the whole world will be speechless and speechless!

Barcelona slaughtered Real Madrid with five goals at Camp Nou, and he has never forgotten it to this day.

The thought of revenge kept swirling in his mind.

This season, Real Madrid got Chu Zhongtian, and finally has the strength to fight with Barcelona. Now his long-awaited moment of revenge is finally coming.

Last time at Camp Nou, the entire stadium of Barcelona fans chanted: "Jose Mourinho! Get out of the coach's seat!! ”

He was sitting in the dugout and his team was suffering all kinds of humiliation on the pitch. There was nothing he could do, he didn't even have the strength to go out and demonstrate to the Barcelona fans.

This is a great shame for him.

Now, back at Camp Nou, he wants to let the arrogant Barcelona fans know that I'm not only going to be coming out of the dugout, I'm going to celebrate in front of you!
