Wayne Rooney and Marcus Rashford came off the bench at the same time, but Real Madrid's defensive focus was more on Rashford.

After all, Rooney is old and has limited running ability, and as long as he keeps a single eye on his shot, Rooney's threat is minimized.

After Rashford was trapped, Xia Xing and Carrick's passes were more likely to be Lukaku and Wayne Rooney.

Romelu Lukaku struggled to play Ramos alone with the ball, and United's hopes were pinned on Wayne Rooney.

The ball was passed to Rooney, who made some passing moves on the spot, or passed back to Xia Xing and Carrick, or went straight to Lukaku.

But it didn't work well.

Wayne Rooney was blocked by Marcelo, Romelu Lukaku was killed by Ramos, and Casemiro and Toni Kroos were back in the middle to prevent Xia Xing and Carrick from having another chance to shoot.

During this period, Real Madrid did not have many attacking opportunities when they retreated to defend, but their defense was very effective.

As the clock ticked by, the game came to the 89th minute.

With two minutes of stoppage time, there is not much time left for Manchester United, who want to score.

At this time, Xia Xing took the ball again and handed it to Carrick again.

And then insert yourself diagonally into the restricted area!

Marcus Rashford is also on a fast sprint!

Two points of contact on the left side of the penalty area!

But Real Madrid's defensive attention is also here.

Carrick had no room to pass the ball and he had to knock it down the right side again.

Give it to Rooney.

In the face of Marcelo's defense, Rooney kept the ball back at Carrick's feet and then sprinted quickly!

This sprint directly shook off Marcelo!

"Rooney's deft movement, into the box!

"What a great opportunity!

"Carrick has multiple passing lanes now!

'He'll look for Xia and Marcus Rashford on the left.

"Or Rooney on the right?

"A cross and the ball flies to the right!

"It's better to find your old partner, Wayne Rooney!

"It's a brilliant pass!

"Great!

"Rooney stopped the ball with his inner calf muscles and he had a chance to shoot!

"Shoot ......

"He's down!

"It was Marcelo who came back to knock him down!

"Sideways tackle!

"Is it a penalty?

"The referee's whistle blows!

"It's a penalty!

"No problem!

"Let's see the replay again!

"Marcelo did kick Rooney's heel!

"There was nothing wrong with the referee's decision!

"Manchester United got a penalty!

"They're about to extend their lead!

"The old duo has made another meritorious service!"

Manchester United fans cheered wildly!

The Manchester United players on the field also hugged with joy!

Got a penalty at the last minute, it was fantastic!

Marcelo was still explaining to the referee, but it was too late.

The referee dispersed Ramos, Casemiro and other Real Madrid players who surrounded him, and once again decisively pointed to the penalty spot.

It's a penalty, no doubt!

By this time, Carrick had already run towards Rooney.

"Wayne! How are you? ”

"I'm fine, don't worry."

"Oh, that's good. If you get injured because of this, I'd rather not have this penalty. ”

"What do you think, I'm not hurt, and the penalty is ours!"

Carrick helped Rooney to his feet, and Rooney shook his ankle, no problem.

At this time, Xia Xing had already run over.

"Captain, are you alright?"

"I'm fine."

"Oh, thank goodness."

"Xia, I want to ...... this penalty"

"To Michael!"

"Huh?"

"Captain, I want to give this penalty to Michael."

Looking at Xia Xing's sincere eyes, Rooney smiled.

If he hadn't finished speaking, let Xia Xing tell him.

"Captain, this is Michael's last season and I hope he will have some good memories. In addition to the Champions League triumph, I also hope that he will leave a legend of a Champions League semi-final hat-trick. ”

"Haha, good! I thought so too! ”

Rooney stepped forward and hugged Xia Xing hard.

Both looked at Carrick next to them at the same time.

Carrick was speechless.

It wasn't until Xia Xing stuffed the ball into Carrick's arms that Carrick sincerely spit out that sentence.

"Thank you, brothers."

Xia Xing smiled and withdrew from the penalty area, and Rooney punched Carrick hard: "Thank you, thank you, you have to score the ball, otherwise I won't spare you." ”

"Gotta score!"

Placing the ball on the penalty spot, Carrick slowly retreated.

Looking at Navas in front of him, Carrick's expression was calm.

At this time, he suddenly felt a little trance.

When did time get so fast?

He still remembers that Real Madrid's goalkeeper is Casillas, and Cristiano Ronaldo not far away is still the No. 7 genius wearing the Red Devils shirt.

It's been too long.

A new generation of international football players is replacing the old, and they are about to leave their beloved green field.

The scenes of the 2008 Champions League final seem to still be emerging in front of our eyes.

Will you be able to play in another Champions League final before retiring?

Can you lift the Champions League trophy again?

If this goal is scored, then everything is possible!

With a two-goal advantage, even if the Bernabeu is easy to defend and difficult to attack, we are still sure to leave Spain with a smile!

This goal must go in!

The referee once again signaled the players on both sides to withdraw from the penalty area, and several players such as Marcelo and Carvajal chattered away.

They were unhappy with the penalty and kept chattering, and Carvajal even received a yellow card for it.

Now the hypocritical procrastination in the penalty area is also trying to affect Carrick and disturb his mentality.

But what hasn't the 36-year-old Carrick seen?

At this moment, his heart is like water.

Outside the restricted area, quietly wait for all unrelated people to exit.

The referee's whistle blew and he let out a breath.

Slowly retreat.

Take a deep breath.

Run-up, one-step, two-step, three-step......

Shot!

The ball was flat and fast, straight into the bottom right corner of the goal!

It's a shot just like his character and style of play.

It doesn't seem to be that hard, but it's going the extra mile.

Navas was on the right track.

He tried his best to get out of his way and quickly pounced to the right.

But it's still half a beat slower......

"The ball is in!

"Carrick shoots it in!

"Manchester United are 4-2 up!

"Now that we're in stoppage time, it's probably the last blow for Manchester United!

"But it was this blow that made Manchester United's lead extend again!

"They were fantastic!

"Carrick was fantastic!

'At the end of the first half, Carrick came off the bench.

"I remember at the time I seemed to have some doubts about the substitution and now I have to apologize to Coach Mourinho!

"He's a genius boss who knows how to make good use of people!

'Carrick came off the bench and pulled a goal back with the first touch!

"At the start of the second half, he equalised with another decisive forward cut!

And now, he's scored an important penalty!

"Manchester United is 4-2!

"Towards the end of the game, Manchester United got a good score!

"I believe that when they go to the Bernabeu in the next round, they will be able to feel more confident!

"At the end of Carrick's career, he can still play so well!

"Veterans don't die!

"The spirit is always there!" (End of chapter)
