On the evening of March 14, the Barcelona bus drove into the stadium outside Old Trafford.

They arrived in Manchester yesterday, stayed in the evening and got used to training this morning.

Old Trafford is no stranger to this Barcelona squad.

Messi, Andres Iniesta and Sergio Busquets have all played against Manchester United at the stadium.

Pique also played for Manchester United, and Suarez was once the number one striker of Manchester United's sworn enemies.

So playing here today, they don't have any strangeness.

And because of Messi's return from injury, the Barcelona players have more confidence.

In this world, no one can guard against Messi!

As long as he starts, we will win!

To get back the face lost at home!

Sitting on the bus, Suarez looked out of the stadium and pouted disdainfully.

"When I used to play in the Premier League, I hated this stadium the most.

Peake shrugged and didn't answer.

After all, it was the old club, and it was not appropriate to say anything now.

Captain Andres Iniesta looked at the large advertisement on the side of the pitch, which showed the whole team photograph of Manchester United.

'I don't feel like a lot of people at Manchester United at the moment, but after all, with David De Gea, Juan Mata and Herrera, I still have a lot of respect for them. By the way, and xia, that guy is really good, a genius. ”

Paulinho also nodded: "I have played in China for many years, and I saw Xia's Chinese face really kind. ”

Rakitic patted Messi on the shoulder next to him: "What kind of genius is he, my brother is a genius." Leo starts this game and we will win! ”

"Victory!"

The teammates agreed with this sentence, and Messi also looked at everyone with a smile.

Although the aggregate score was 0-1 down before this game, everyone was confident of advancing to the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

Messi is no exception.

He was out of action due to injury in the last game and watched the game in a VIP room.

When he saw Phil Jones sent off, he thought he was sure to win, it was just a matter of how many goals he won.

As a result, I didn't expect to lose.

Seeing Xia Xing's assist and Sanchez's goal, Messi's face was very ugly.

He had been looking forward to this game for a long time.

At Old Trafford, Barcelona must win!

The Barcelona players entered, and the Manchester United players had not yet arrived.

It took them five minutes to warm up before the United players arrived late.

But that's Mourinho's arrangement.

Anyway, in our home field, what's the hurry?

When the Manchester United players entered, there was thunderous applause and cheers from the stands!

This huge deterrent is for the Barcelona players to see!

With us, don't you want to leave smiling!

Once the strength of the 1-3 final, Manchester United fans are still haunted.

Although there have been some unpleasantness, there is not much friction between the two sides, and the personal relationship is not bad.

After the Manchester United players came on the pitch, acquaintances from both sides greeted each other in a friendly manner.

For example, the Spanish players on both sides, and the fellow countrymen from France.

When Xia walked on the field, the first person to walk towards him was Barcelona's number one star Messi.

Although the two do not have a deep personal relationship, they cherish each other.

I have also had friendly exchanges under the stage of the previous Golden Globe Awards ceremonies, and the relationship is good.

"Xia, nice to meet you."

"Leo, how are your injuries, are you alright?"

"No problem, you can see me for 90 minutes."

"It's great, every time I play with you, I'm so excited."

"Me too, I was impatient to watch the game in the private room last time."

"Hopefully today we can give the fans a good night."

"Well, there must be half of the fans who are in a good mood."

The two looked at each other and smiled, hugged and turned to part.

Messi nodded secretly, this young man is really good.

Andres Iniesta told me that if I could poach him to Barca, Barcelona would definitely usher in a new dynasty.

When the season is over, I'll talk to him......

Messi was thinking about Xia Xing in his heart, and Xia Xing also turned his head to look at Messi again.

In this game, he will have a lot of contact with Messi.

Because Mourinho has already assigned him a task - to stare Messi to death!

Before the game, Mourinho stressed many times: "Manchester United, who have a one-goal lead, will be able to advance as long as they don't let Barcelona score." ”

This sentence seems to be a nonsense, but in fact it is very simple.

Manchester United had to set up a bucket today and defend it with all their might.

Defense is the most important thing for the whole team.

In this game, Manchester United made an all-main debut, 4-2-3-1 formation,

Goalkeeper David De Gea,

Four-backs Ashley Young, Smalling, Lindelof, Valencia,

The back two Nemanja Matic and Marouane Fellaini,

Three forward Xia Xing, Pogba, Sanchez,

Centre forward Romelu Lukaku.

Wayne Rooney and Michael Carrick are two veterans on the bench.

Barcelona is in the same 4-3-3 formation as in the previous game.

Goalkeeper Ter Stegen,

Defender four Alba, Vermaelen, Pique, Roberto,

The midfielders Andres Iniesta, Sergio Busquets and Paulinho,

The front three are Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Dembele.

Also on the bench were Rakitic, Umtiti, Paco, Andre Gómez, Mecedo, Cillessen, among others.

In the live broadcast room, Alan Shearer and Carragher are discussing the deployment of the double reversal team.

Carragher is still a proper "anti-Manchester United".

"Barcelona must win this game!

"Barcelona had some trouble in the last game, it was just a small upset,

"Now that Messi is back, Barca's overall strength has risen more than a notch.

"Right now, no one in the Manchester United team can stop Messi's progress.

"This game is conservatively estimated that Barcelona will win by at least three goals."

Alan Shearer doesn't see it that way.

"I still think Manchester United have a chance to qualify.

"Mourinho will still defend with all his might in this game, especially the two-back combination of Matic and Fellaini, which is quite tough.

"This kind of tough guy definitely has the strength to fight against Barcelona's offensive line,

Coupled with Xia's retreat, it made Manchester United's defense even more impregnable.

'I think it's likely to end in a draw or a narrow win for Manchester United.

The two have different opinions, both from the effect of the show and from their personal standpoint.

At this time, the players of both sides have returned from the players' tunnel, and the referee blows the whistle to start the game!

Barcelona take the lead in the onslaught!

This is just the beginning, and their trident rushes up!

Dembele, who had a mediocre performance in the last game, was very positive today.

A succession of passes from midfield, the ball was handed to his feet.

At this time, he received the ball on the right side and suddenly accelerated and sprinted!

Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini was directly rushed by him with speed!

Wonderful!

In the face of Ashley Young's defense, Dembele is still fast!

Two bicycles in a row, suddenly cut in!

Shoot low from the edge of the box!

The ball goes straight to the far corner!

De Gea went down quickly to save and the ball was blocked!

Although there was no goal, Barcelona's opening crit was like a rainbow! (End of chapter)
