The 76,000-odd seats at Old Trafford were packed, with just over 4,000 Roma fans coming to Manchester with the team, more than 10,000 neutral fans, and the rest were Manchester United fans. The voices of Manchester United fans are the main body of the pitch.

At the start of the game, Manchester United fans kept shouting the names of their stars to welcome them on the field.

Roma, on the other hand, were not very popular, and when the commentator mentioned Totti's name, the Roma fans cheered, and many neutral fans followed suit, but the United fans did not respond at all, for them, Totti, like other Roma players, was nothing special at all.

It was Zhang Tiehan who received cheers from many Manchester United fans.

“…… Rome's Thirteenth, Zhang! When the commentator reported Zhang Tiehan's name, many Manchester United fans made a voice, and now Zhang Tiehan is still somewhat famous in England, not to mention, he was a member of Manchester United before, and many Manchester United fans know him.

But now it's the opponents, the United fans just shout, that's all.

On the other hand, Rooney and C-Ronaldo have been more popular, especially C-Ronaldo, with that handsome face, C-Ronaldo has become the new idol of Manchester United, especially since he came a year before Rooney, and his watch has won the support of many Manchester United fans.

After the two teams came on the field, the captains of both sides went to guess the coin, and when the time was almost up, with the referee's whistle, the game officially began.

……

Sky Sports England broadcast the game live, and the commentator Alfi knows Zhang Tiehan quite well, and last season Alfi commentators had a lot of Wigan Athletic's League Cup matches, including the confrontation between Wigan Athletic and Chelsea.

At the beginning of the game, the scene was not too hot, and Alfi took the opportunity to introduce the main stars of the two teams. Manchester United is Rooney, C-Ronaldo, and the media thinks, Van Nistelrooy did not start, Ferguson finally chose Rooney and Alan Smith to partner as a double striker, so that in Manchester United's lineup, only Rooney and C-Ronaldo should be carefully introduced. The other players have attracted a lot less attention.

For the Roma team, Alfi also gave a detailed introduction, such as Totti, and Zhang Tiehan, when mentioning Zhang Tiehan, Alfi said a lot.

Roma's number 13 started the game, with the young star a former member of United's Academy who was briefly promoted to the first team and scored two goals in two warm-up games. However, due to internal conflicts, he was sold to Wigan Athletic, also in Manchester. ”

'Zhang was very good at Wigan Athletic last season, he was the top scorer in League One and helped the team to promotion to the Premier League, and Wigan Athletic also beat Arsenal to win the League Cup, so they qualified for the League Cup this season.

"However, since Zhang's departure, Wigan Athletic's table has not been very good, and they are currently second from bottom in the league...... For them, though. It's good to have the experience of playing in the Premier League. ”

"Now Chang is a member of Rome. He scored the most goals in Serie A, and in the Champions League, Zhang also scored nine. ”

"If Manchester United want to knock out Roma, they have to limit the talented goalscorer who once belonged to them, otherwise they will have a tough time even at Old Trafford. This was confirmed by many teams, such as AC Milan, who recently lost to Roma at the San Siro because they did not effectively limit Zhang......

"For Zhang, this match has a special meaning. He returned to Old Trafford after five years at Manchester United, so what would he do? Let's wait and see. ”

Alfi said a lot about Zhang Tiehan, most of which were goal sheets, but surprisingly, not long after the game began, Zhang Tiehan's first appearance was not on offense, but on defense.

……

It was Manchester United who kicked off.

United didn't rush forward, they fell a few feet at the back and started a tentative attack. For Manchester United, Roma is not a strong opponent, but they have not played against Roma at all in history, the two teams are very unfamiliar with each other, and the opponents seen in the video and commentary cannot be fully used in the real game, so they are very cautious.

The ball was passed from centre-back O'Shea to the starter Fletcher and then to Wayne Rooney up front, who saw that there was no chance and passed the ball back to Scholes, who then passed it back to full-back Heinze.

Roma defended cautiously as well.

Before the game, Drinel emphasized the defense many times, the game just started, when the football was at the feet of Manchester United, they slightly shrunk the formation, not a complete defensive formation, but the formation was not pressed, even Zhang Tiehan was near the middle line, and the others, only Montella crossed the middle line on the side and forced over.

Montella pressed over, but Heinze did not rush the ball, and only when he was a few meters away did he pass the ball to the front.

In front of him was Fletcher, who came back to get the ball.

After two seasons, Fletcher is no longer the original Fletcher, he is not the main force at Manchester United, and it is difficult to compete with old people such as Roy Keane and Scholes, but whether Keane, Scholes, or others are older after all, Fletcher is still very young, he still has many opportunities to play, and due to Keane's injury in this game, Ferguson sent Fletcher on the field.

Fletcher doesn't have anything particularly impressive, but he plays steadily, rarely makes mistakes, doesn't win cheers for his skill at his feet, but rarely makes mistakes.

Fletcher takes the ball forward.

Totti met him, Fletcher didn't think about getting past Totti at all, he passed the ball to C-Ronaldo on the side for the first time, and then C-Ronaldo passed the ball back, and the two got rid of Totti with a two-one, and at the same time C-Ronaldo started on the side, and Fletcher passed the ball again.

The continuous passing of the two is quite eye-catching.

When Cristiano Ronaldo got the ball again, he was already running, he was quite fast, and when he got the ball, he quickly killed it along the side!

"Ronaldo! Ronaldo! ”

C-Ronaldo rushed with the ball, and there was immediately a cheering sound of Manchester United fans in the audience.

Cristiano Ronaldo arrived in Manchester last summer and he quickly conquered many United fans with his feet, plus his occasional goals and assists. Manchester United fans have fallen in love with this young, handsome Portuguese kid, and his watch is quite strong, especially the gorgeous kick, which always arouses the amazement and cheers of many fans.

C-Ronaldo's footwork is indeed quite good, and after a season and a half of training, he is much calmer than when he first came to Manchester United. At first, he was more passable, but most of the time he seemed too lonely, and Ferguson reprimanded him for this, and he gradually got rid of this problem and cooperated more with his teammates.

But when there is a chance, C-Ronaldo still likes to show off his footwork!

Like now.

Roma's right midfielder was left behind by him, and there was only one right wing-back further on, and he had a lot of options when he arrived up front - he got past that right wing-back and crossed the line. Or cut straight inside to the middle, looking for an opportunity to shoot yourself or attract the defender before passing.

Both options are quite good, so C-Ronaldo just rushes forward!

He's pretty fast!

The reason why C-Ronaldo can stand out in football and come to Manchester United to occupy the main position, Ferguson also has high hopes for him, the reason is his strength and potential, both physical and technical, C-Ronaldo is stronger than the average player. Physically, maybe a direct collision with him doesn't have much advantage. But his speed and explosiveness are by no means comparable to the average player.

When he rushes, few players can follow, even if he is dribbling!

Sartol greeted him.

Sartol was Roma's back-up full-back who made a name for himself in his early years with Parma and has been in a slip of form as he has aged. However, he is still a qualified full-back with considerable defensive experience, and in the face of the impact of Cristiano Ronaldo, he chooses to retreat slowly, even if he can't cut off the ball. Also turn and stick to stop C-Ronaldo's pass.

C-Ronaldo doesn't have the slightest sense of passing, and in the process of dribbling the ball, his feet go back and forth on the football ball to get rid of quickly, this kind of action has a familiar name on the football field - pedaling a bicycle.

Sartol watched C-Ronaldo keep pedaling the bike, but he didn't rush forward, just slowly retreated, but he didn't expect C-Ronaldo to move quickly - he suddenly kicked the ball to the left, and he squeezed forward from Sartol's right side.

Sartol clearly misestimated C-Ronaldo's explosiveness!

When he tried to turn around and follow again, Cristiano Ronaldo had already caught up with the ball and he was completely left behind.

The ball is divided!

The Old Trafford stadium burst into shouts!

……

Just after Cristiano Ronaldo used Satorol as a foil and showed a wonderful man-ball score, a Roma player appeared in front of him.

He has two options, one is to pass the ball and the other is to continue to break through.

For more than a season and a half, Cristiano Ronaldo has matured, and in the past he would choose to continue to break through, especially the voices of many Manchester United fans in the audience, which made him full of motivation, but now he will choose to pass the ball, just because he handed the ball to his teammates and looked for opportunities steadily, more than breaking through directly by himself.

But when he saw the tall figure in front of him and the provocative face, C-Ronaldo immediately changed his mind!

In any case, he also remembers the 'teammate' he met when he first came to Manchester United, he was about the same age as himself, but he scored two goals in two warm-up games, and he was very difficult to pass him in normal training, which is why he disliked Zhang Tiehan from the bottom of his heart.

Genius and genius are not sympathetic!

C-Ronaldo thinks he is a genius, but when he met Zhang Tiehan, who was unknown at the time, he found that he was not very good - it was difficult for him to break through Zhang Tiehan, and in the game, Zhang Tiehan also scored consecutive goals, and he, the talented star of Portugal, did not have a good performance at all.

He was jealous.

He was very dissatisfied with Zhang Tiehan, and as a result, there was something afterward, and C-Ronaldo didn't feel anything about it, and he would use his watch to prove that Ferguson was right in choosing himself.

C-Ronaldo's table xiàn is also good.

But what he didn't expect was that Zhang Tiehan went to the English League One team, and his table was also quite good, and now he has joined Roma and become Manchester United's opponent in the Champions League.

Even before the game, Zhang Tiehan insulted himself as a 'bastard', and C-Ronaldo felt annoyed when he saw the figure in front of him, so he rushed forward with the ball without hesitation.

Boom!

A kick broke the ball, and C-Ronaldo fell to the ground......

Compared with last summer, the two met in training matches, there is almost no difference, the winner is still Zhang Tiehan on the defense, any deceptive moves of C-Ronaldo are the same for him, he just looked at the ball, and then found the opportunity to break the ball, C-Ronaldo and he came to the foot once, and the result fell without hesitation.

The football stopped in front of Zhang Tiehan.

C-Ronaldo fell to the ground next to him, Zhang Tiehan ran forward two steps to control the ball, glanced ahead, and slowly dribbled the ball forward. With an indifferent smile on his face, he didn't look at C-Ronaldo behind him at all.

The Manchester United fans in the audience were still cheering for C-Ronaldo, but at this moment their calls came to an abrupt end, compared to the two who went head-to-head, no matter how handsome C-Ronaldo was, no matter how attractive his skills were, now he has undoubtedly become a loser.

Zhang Tiehan, who is dribbling the ball forward and still has a light smile on his face, is the winner! (To be continued......)
