Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Avengers: Manchester United (Second Update!) )
In fact, Arsenal later reached the semi-finals and met Manchester United.
So there's no need to go to great lengths for Lazio and Manchester United to meet in the quarter-finals.
But maybe God thinks it's a great achievement to get Lazio into the last four of the Champions League, and he doesn't want that to happen.
It wants to keep the winning teams in the quarter-finals.
Anyway, Lazio met Manchester United, who were in the best form of the team, in the quarter-finals, and Modric, the core of Lazio's midfield playmaker, went off because he strained his thigh muscles.
Although Lazio was ahead by one goal at this time, everyone knew that Lazio's lead was actually very fragile.
Modric went off injured in the first ten minutes of the game, which was indeed a big blow to Lazio.
Luka Modric is the heart of Lazio's midfield, and it is up to him to organise the attack.
He meant a lot to Lazio.
And Lazio's players, especially the strikers, are used to Modric delivering through balls again and again.
When Modric is not on the pitch, they will inevitably be a little uncomfortable.
There isn't much Chang Sheng can do right now to get Motta to organise the attack, while allowing Cazorlado to drop back and strengthen the midfield's control.
All kinds of plans and tactics before the game, but I didn't expect Modric to be injured, let alone so early......
After arranging the substitutions, he yelled from the sidelines, signaling his players to stay calm and play at their original pace.
"No big deal! We're the leader! ”
He was on the sidelines. But to be honest, whether this is useful or not, Chang Sheng himself doesn't know.
※※※
Manchester United are like a beast that, after conceding a goal, did not demoralize them, but rather angered them.
Their offensive was in full swing. The action was also relatively large, which led to Modric's injury.
Now that Lazio's midfield core has gone down, they have become even more unscrupulous.
Lazio took the lead, but they also had to switch to a strategic defense.
In the thirtieth minute. Lazio was not able to hold on. Their goal was breached by Manchester United.
If there was anything wrong with Lazio's defensive tactics, it wasn't.
This conceded goal. It is the best embodiment of personal ability.
Cristiano Ronaldo forced a breakthrough after winning the ball in the middle.
Ledesma followed him from the sidelines throughout, interfering with him, only to have Cristiano Ronaldo shoot straight from distance, after the ball drew a less obvious arc. Drilled into the goal.
Handanovic tried his best to make a save, but he couldn't reach it.
Ronaldo kicked a dead corner!
"The world—!!"
"Ronaldo is finally in his hands! The last time the two sides met, although he scored a goal, he didn't bring victory to the team, and now he wants to take revenge! ”
Ronaldo's shot was really beautiful, 38 meters from the goal, a long-range shot. It's like a cruise missile.
After the goal, Cristiano Ronaldo was in situ and roared in the sky!
seems to vent the frustration of the final.
Ever since losing that game, he's had a breath of air squeezing in his heart.
Now it has finally been vented in this long howl.
He, Ronaldo, to be the best player in the world!
But if you don't have the Champions League. What is the best player?
Lazio was his enemy.
This time, he is going to bury Lazio with his own hands!
※※※
In the face of conceding such a goal, Chang Sheng is really speechless.
It's the ultimate in a player's individual ability. It's no surprise that Ronaldo shoots such a ball, he is good at shooting from distance.
Even if God secretly helped, Chang Sheng didn't dare to say.
But it doesn't matter, Chang Sheng has already made a decision in his heart, and he doesn't care what God does.
Anyway, there is a goal, just go towards that goal.
As a manager, the most powerless situation is the kind of ball just now.
There's no problem with your tactical arrangement, there's no problem with your formation, and the form of the players you've chosen is still fine.
You've done everything you can, but you can't stop it.
Before Cristiano Ronaldo's shot, he had Ledesma on his side all the time, which was his own request, and he was well aware of Cristiano Ronaldo's long-range shot.
Ledesma is not lazy either, as can be seen from the frequency of physical confrontation between him and Cristiano Ronaldo.
But it still allowed Cristiano Ronaldo to score.
What does this mean?
This only shows that Cristiano Ronaldo is too livestock!
※※※
It would be naïve to think that United would be content if they scored a goal in the first half to level the scoreline.
Manchester United are here for revenge, how could they easily give up the chance to score?
It's just a tie.
Don't listen to Ferguson.
What an ordinary Champions League game.
The old man was in the dressing room before the game and was blowing his head at every Manchester United player to remind them of how he lost the final at Moscow's Luzhniki Stadium last summer.
What he said before was not revenge, but just trying to paralyze the Lazio side.
If Manchester United is robbed of a Champions League title, and when they meet each other again, they say mildly, "Let the past pass, let's ignore the past and turn the conflict into a jade silk...... then it must not be Manchester United, at least it must not be Ferguson's Manchester United.
So after the equaliser, United continued to storm Lazio.
Their attacking intensity is so fierce that one can mistakenly think that they are playing at home and Lazio are playing away from home......
In the 41st minute, United played a quick attack. Rooney passed the ball to Cristiano Ronaldo, who was outflanked in the middle, and Cristiano Ronaldo suddenly accelerated, shook off Jose Passarella with speed, and then grabbed in front of Francisco Papa. Poked the ball into Handanovic's goal.
"Cristiano Ronaldo!!" The commentator in England shouted excitedly. "Manchester United have reversed! They turned defeat into victory! This is the best revenge for Lazio! ”
After the goal, Cristiano Ronaldo got up from the ground, then opened his arms and ran wildly, the expression on his face made him even a little hideous.
The evil spirit in his chest was vented in this brace.
There is also a kind of "bad breath" among the commentators in England.
Last season's final. He watched from the press box as United lost to Lazio. This breath has been held until now, and it is finally returned to Lazio!
"Manchester United came back away from home! They lead Lazio 2:1!! ”
"Ronaldo scored twice! He proved that he is the best player in football today!! ”
"Although there are transfer rumors with Real Madrid. However, that didn't affect his performance on the pitch...... I think after watching this game, Real Madrid will probably want to bring Cristiano Ronaldo to the Bernabeu! For Ferguson, it's a painful and happy reality......"
※※※
Seeing Ronaldo running wildly to celebrate a goal made it even more unpleasant to win.
"Hell! See the! See the hell! ”
He was constantly swearing. In this way, he vented the unhappiness and depression in his heart.
Cristiano Ronaldo's brace did not frustrate him, on the contrary, it made him want to beat Manchester United even more.
He doesn't have much of a grudge against Manchester United, but who let fate choose them to be their spokesperson?
What is said about the "invisible hand of fate", in fact, it is visible, and now Manchester United is the "hand of fate"!
Fortune through Manchester United.
But I'm not going to let you get your wish, fate.
"!"

First. Manchester United lead Lazio 2-1.
The score remained until the end of the first half.
The Lazio fans, who were elated when Modric scored a goal, are now silent.
The result left them depressed and miserable.
In the lead, the opponent overtook him, and the main core also left the field due to injury.
Laziocchi's season relied on David Silva and Luka Modric to attack.
However, David Silva was abolished by Atletico Madrid, and Modric is now injured and out of the field, and it is not known what the specific situation is. How long will you be absent......
How will you play the game after that......
Lazio fans are thinking not just about this game, but also about the rest of the season.
With injuries to two absolute cores, Lazio's luck has been terrible.
Could it be that last season's historic Champions League triumph had used up a lifetime of good fortune?
Lazio fans don't want to believe it's true.
We won the Champions League from Manchester United a year ago, so why should we beat us a year later?
Is it to prove that Manchester United are better than us and more worthy of that title?
Shit!
If this is the arrangement of fate, then fate is a piece of shit!
It's a fucking oversized shit!
The frustrated Lazio fans in the stands cursed this in their hearts.
But what else could they do but curse?
They can't go down and play in person, and they can't help much from the stands.
Today's opponent is simply vicious and frenzied.
They also have a vague fear in their hearts, worried that they will really be defeated and eliminated by Manchester United.
In that case. The fans of Rome, the city's sworn enemy, are probably the first to jump out and laugh at them.
Unwilling, and worried.
Lazio fans sat in the stands in a state of anxiety and frustration for the fifteen-minute half-time break.
