Chapter 108: Manchester City Miracle, Advance to the Champions League Final!
The five-minute break ended quickly and overtime officially began.
Real Madrid launched an onslaught towards Manchester City from the first minute of extra time.
The whole Manchester City team strictly implemented Pellegrini's stubborn tactics, fought to the death, and tried their best to deal with Real Madrid.
The situation was the same as in stoppage time before, and Real Madrid once again formed a siege on the Manchester City goal.
But Real Madrid will always be wary when attacking, because Lin Quan is at the front and always poses a huge threat to their goal.
However, it was difficult for City's players to get the ball to Lin Quan's feet.
Under the siege of Real Madrid, even if they completed the broken ball, they were either immediately forced by the opponent on the spot, or Lin Quan was seen dead by the opponent and could not pass to his feet.
Real Madrid is not a fool, Aguero has been replaced, and only Lin Quan is left with a threat to them, so they will naturally guard Lin Quan to the death.
Real Madrid's defender Pepe is almost always attached to Lin Quan, and he goes wherever Lin Quan goes.
In addition to Pepe, Real Madrid's midfielders and two full-backs also often take care of Lin Quan, who has at least two defenders around him at all times.
In this case, he really can't get the ball.
Even if you get it, the opponent will foul at the first time.
And Manchester City's counterattack could not be played, and Real Madrid launched a siege on Manchester City even more unscrupulously.
The overtime of the first half was quickly coming to an end, and the physical strength of the players on both sides dropped a lot, and they were a little unable to run at this time.
Luka Modric struggled to pass the ball to his team-mate under Fernandinho's pressure, and then went down.
"Let's take a look at the ball!"
"Modric passes to Di Maria, and Di Maria hands it to Ronaldo!"
"Cristiano Ronaldo accelerates and gets rid of it, opens the space and hits the door!"
"The ball is in!"
"Cristiano Ronaldo, Real Madrid's number one star, stepped up when the team was in trouble and helped them score the most crucial goal in this season's Champions League!"
"With this goal, Real Madrid extended their lead and the aggregate score of the two teams is now 6:5!"
"This goal also means that there will be no penalty shootouts in this game."
On the CCTV commentary seat, both commentators were shocked by Ronaldo's unreasonable goal.
Lin Quan's outstanding performance in this game made people subconsciously ignore another superstar.
There is Cristiano Ronaldo on the other side!
Including regular time and stoppage time, the players on the pitch have been playing for more than 100 minutes.
In this case, Ronaldo still has such a strong explosive power, and he can still have such an accurate head, this kind of ability, if you don't accept it!
"It's a shame that Man City have done their best, but they have one less man and it will have too much impact on the team!"
Xu Yang shook his head regretfully, after this goal was scored, Manchester City may really be powerless.
The situation in the first half of extra-time was already clear, and after the balance of numbers on the pitch was broken, Real Madrid completely gained the upper hand.
With one less point of threat up front, Real Madrid have more strength to defend Lin Quan.
This makes Manchester City's attacking threat almost completely strangled!
After completing this crucial goal, Ronaldo once again ran to the sidelines and used his domineering celebration.
The Bernabeu scene suddenly resounded with the sound of 'SIU'!
At this moment, Real Madrid fans are extremely glad that they have Ronaldo in the team, if there is no Ronaldo, this game may be really difficult to say.
Enjoying the cheers of the fans and the embrace of his teammates, Ronaldo glanced at the front court and saw Lin Quan standing alone in the Real Madrid half.
Lin, I admit you're strong, but my teammates are stronger!
Moreover, I also scored two goals, and I am one goal away from you!
Cristiano Ronaldo feels he is in very good shape and he is confident that he will score another goal in the final to equalle Lin Quan's Champions League record.
Even, if his performance in the final is as good as this one, maybe he can score another brace and dominate the Champions League scorer list!
After Real Madrid celebrated, the first half of extra time was over.
There was no break in the middle of extra time, and the second half of the game began straight away.
The team fell behind again and the score was not in favour of Manchester City, and Pellegrini opted to go out.
Manchester City only needs to score one goal to advance, and at this time it is certain to defend to death, and only by attacking can there be a glimmer of life.
Carlo Ancelotti admired the courage of the Chilean engineer, who was as radical as he had guessed.
But this is the Bernabeu, here with Real Madrid?
That's looking for death!
Taking advantage of the opportunity of the two sides exchanging venues, Lin Quan chatted with De Bruyne for a while.
"Kevin, do you still have the stamina?"
De Bruyne nodded: "A little, but not much!" ”
"That's it, I'll see my position later!"
"Are you trying to single-handedly take on Real Madrid's backline?"
De Bruyne glanced at Lin Quan and asked suspiciously.
Lin Quan nodded: "Is there any other better way?" ”
De Bruyne shook his head, indeed no.
"Okay, leave it to me, I'll do my best to pass the ball to you!"
In the second half of extra time, Real Madrid still firmly occupied the initiative.
The Bernabeu fans sang and danced as if to celebrate their hard-earned victory.
In the 25th minute of extra time, Manchester City broke the ball at the back, and De Bruyne reached out in advance to ask.
Fernandinho, who broke the ball, hesitated for a moment and passed the ball to him anyway.
He hesitated for a while, so that the Real Madrid players forced up.
After De Bruyne took the ball, he almost used all his strength to complete the turn with difficulty, glanced at the direction where Lin Quan was, and passed the ball out!
Lin, I can only help you get here, and the rest is up to you!
Seeing that his teammates had completed the break, Lin Quan took the initiative to retreat as soon as possible, wanting to get rid of the marking of the Real Madrid players.
Pepe could not let him succeed and follow him immediately.
But because Lin Quan took the initiative to retreat, one step faster than Pepe, he still received De Bruyne's pass smoothly.
Pepe decisively stepped forward to intercept, trying to stop Lin Quan before he could finish his turn, allowing his teammates to complete the bag and defuse his attack as before.
But Lin Quan, as if he had eyes on the back of his head, knocked the ball with his heel when Pepe grabbed it, and kicked the ball out between Pepe's legs.
Then he broke free of Pepe's pull and slipped past him.
has been closely guarded by the other party for a long time, if you don't know how to deal with Pepe, then Lin Quan will be kicked in vain for this time!
"Stop him, stop him!"
On the sidelines, Ancelotti's face changed suddenly, and he shouted hoarsely.
Real Madrid's midfielders and fullbacks rushed to Lin Quan for the first time, wanting to cut off his ball like before.
However, Lin Quan didn't give them a chance, he kicked the ball out, and then sprinted and ran with all his might.
Including stoppage time, the game has been played for more than 120 minutes, and the Real Madrid players have long since lost much energy.
At this time, I wanted to chase Lin Quan, but I couldn't catch up, so I could only watch the other party stride towards the football.
Casillas once again abandoned the goal, desperately trying to stop Lin Quan.
But Lin Quan didn't give him another chance to tackle, he rushed to the ball at a faster speed, flicked to the right, dodged Casillas's tackle, and ran towards Real Madrid's penalty area with the football.
Seeing this scene, the 80,000 Real Madrid fans at the Bernabeu almost didn't dare to open their eyes!
City's number 10 dribbled into his own penalty area, which was empty and only an empty goal.
What will happen next, it's not hard to imagine!
Lin Quan easily kicked the ball into the empty net and scored a hat-trick at the Bernabeu!
He stood in the Real Madrid penalty area, cocked his collar and looked around the stadium like a king!
"Haha, it's coming, Emperor Lin's iconic celebration move!"
"Patrol the Bernabeu like a king, mighty and domineering, I like it!"
"It's so handsome, it's so handsome!"
"Damn, he pretended to be it!"
Seeing Lin Quan's goal, the players of Real Madrid were like lightning strikes, and they were all stunned in place.
Lin Quan's goal changed the score to 4:3 and the aggregate score was 6:6, but Manchester City had three away goals.
Real Madrid will have to score one more goal to qualify for the final!
And now there are only five minutes left, and when Manchester City finish their celebrations, even shorter, will they still have time?
Looking at the back of the collar raised, many players of Real Madrid have lost the courage to resist.
In the final stage, Real Madrid launched the most fierce attack, but the Manchester City players who were inspired by Lin Quan's goal stubbornly defended their goal as if they had been beaten with chicken blood!
A few minutes later, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the match.
Manchester City relied on Lin Quan's hat-trick, although they lost the game, they defeated Real Madrid by away goals and reached the Champions League final first.
It was City's first ever final and they were so close to winning their first Champions League trophy in their history.
Manchester City's opponents will be the winner between Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich, and given Atletico's away win in the last leg, Atletico are more likely to progress to the final.
At the moment of the final whistle, Ronaldo stood on the pitch and was reluctant to leave the field for a long time.
"Alas, my Ronaldo is distressing, Ronaldo's performance in this game is good enough!"
"No way, the opponent is stronger, or rather, Ronaldo's opponent is stronger!"
"I really don't know how uncomfortable Ronaldo is now, he has tried his best, but he still can't win!"
"There is actually a gap in the strength of the two teams, if it weren't for Lin Huang's explosion, Manchester City would probably lose!"
The joys and sorrows are not the same, and Manchester City reversed Real Madrid at the Bernabeu.
Yet Pep Guardiola's side lost!
In the second leg, Atletico took the initiative.
They fought like a disciplined army, blocking all Bayern's attacks.
With two goals in the second half, Atletico Madrid beat Bayern 2-0 at home and swept Bayern 3-0 over two legs to advance to the final.
Poor Bayern suffered a clean sheet and lost very badly.
They kept a clean sheet against Barcelona last season, and this season they were kept clean by another team in La Liga.
After Atletico Madrid's victory over Bayern, the two teams that broke into the Champions League were all released.
The final of the Champions League will be played 25 days later at the Stadium of Light in Lisbon, Portugal.
However, Manchester City don't care about this anymore, the Champions League final is still far away, and they have another trophy to hold, and that is the FA Cup!
The Premier League season is coming to an end, and City still have three games to play, including the refills.
On May 3, in the 37th round of the Premier League, Manchester City challenged fifth-ranked Everton away.
It doesn't matter to Manchester City, but it's crucial for Everton, who are aiming to challenge for the Champions League.
The Toffees seem to feel that Manchester City have just played a hard-fought battle with Real Madrid, and they are physically and mentally exhausted at this time, and they have a chance to take advantage of it.
So he took advantage of the home advantage at home and launched a fierce attack on Manchester City.
However, when the final whistle blew, the Toffee fans were all devastated one by one.
A bright red number appeared on the scoreboard - 0:6!
Home team in front, away team in the back!
The Toffees were thrashed by Manchester City on their home turf, with Sergio Aguero and Lim both netting twice, while Kevin De Bruyne and David Silva also scored a goal each.
Manchester City's bloodbath at Everton made Professor Arsene Wenger cry with joy.
Before the game, he was most worried about Manchester City releasing water on Everton when they had already won the title early.
In that case, Arsenal's fourth place may not be guaranteed.
Thankfully, City didn't do that and instead handed Everton a heavy defeat.
The heavy defeat not only left Everton completely behind Arsenal on goal difference, but also demoralized.
Let Arsene Wenger's Arsenal completely keep the fourth!
Whether Arsenal can succeed in keeping four or not, Manchester City does not care.
On 8 May, Manchester City returned to host Aston Villa.
This is a make-up match for the 29th round of the Premier League.
Facing Aston Villa, the Premier League's notorious foul team, Manchester City played particularly ferociously.
Their aggressive scrambling and rough fouls have turned Aston Villa, who loves to foul and has the roughest movements, into kittens who only complain and complain to the referee.
At full-time, Manchester City beat Aston Villa 4-0.
Negredo scored twice, Lin Quan and Kroos scored a goal each.
On May 11, the 38th round of the Premier League was also the final game of the Premier League season.
Manchester City host West Ham United.
In this game, Pellegrini only let Lin Quan and other main players play half the court, let them complete the warm-up, and by the way, he replaced them with a little bit of condition.
But even so, with goals from Lin Quan and Sergio Aguero in the first half, Manchester City still won 2-0 easily.
So far, Manchester City has played all the Premier League games this season.
In a total of 38 games, they have a record of 31 wins, six draws and one defeat, bringing the total points to 99, breaking the record set by Chelsea in 2004-2005 for the highest 95 points in a single Premier League season.
In addition to breaking the league's record for the most points, City have scored 127 goals in those 38 games, a record high since the Premier League was restructured and second only to Aston Villa's all-time record of 128 goals in the 1930-1931 season.
However, at that time, there were a total of 42 games in the league, and the Premier League after the restructuring only had 38 rounds, and if these four games were added, Manchester City's firepower would definitely break the record.
In terms of personal data, Lin Quan scored a total of 52 goals in 35 games, not only leading Suarez, who is second in the scorer list, by a huge margin, but also greatly refreshing the Premier League's single-season goal record.
The previous record holders were Alan Shearer and Andy Cole with 34 goals.
Lin Quan improved that record by 18 goals all at once, and it was achieved when the Premier League shrank from 42 rounds to 38 rounds.
This historical record, except for himself, I am afraid that it is difficult for anyone else to break it!
And the most terrifying thing about Lin Quan is that he not only has a lot of goals, but also a very terrifying number of assists.
In 35 games this season, Lin Quan has completed a total of 21 assists.
This number of assists is also at the top of the list!
Among Manchester City's 127 goals, Lin Quan's own goals alone were as high as 73 goals, which is almost equivalent to 60% of the team's firepower.
If Barcelona would not have played without Messi, then once Manchester City has lost Lin Quan, I am afraid that it will fall a notch in place.
Before the Premier League released the statistics of each team, people didn't know how terrifying Manchester City was, but after the data was released, people felt more awe of Lin Quan in addition to the horror of Manchester City.
It turns out that he has grown to such a height unconsciously!
took a look at everyone's opinions, and found that everyone didn't like this plot, so I humbly listened to everyone's opinions and rewrote the plot.
