Chapter 115 Manchester United vs Milan
"Beep" was a whistle, and the third game of the 04-05 UEFA Champions League 1/8 final match between Manchester United and AC Milan at home officially started!
Only 8 minutes into the game, the ball was in Milan. The Rossoneri wore away jerseys that resembled Real Madrid today, but they did not inherit the elegance of the Blancos. Cafu took the ball and Crespo, The three of Costa passed slowly, making people drowsy, but when the Manchester United players were almost impatient, Crespo's slow pace suddenly accelerated, and after taking two steps Afterwards, he raised his leg high, and made a cross pass when everyone did not expect it. The football didn't even bounce on the green field, and the Brazilian easily relieved the force with his chest and directly led With the Mercedes-Benz heading towards the penalty area, Manchester United's defenders suddenly changed color.
not good!He is going to run!
Although it is only the third season of the Brazilian in Milan, his long-distance attacks and pass assists are full of threats, which has given all opponents a headache as to how to guard against this Milan No. 22. In the end, they came to the conclusion that ——
As with all Brazilians who can play, play as long as you can.
Of course, this sentence has no connotation, and the meaning is the simplest and rude: it is best to kick people until they can't play and end.
However, it may still be a matter of consideration, so when intercepting Kaka outside the penalty area, Gary Neville did not extend his spikes to the Brazilian, but reached out and pulled him to the ground.
Although according to the Brazilian's speed, Gary Neville's spikes stretched out, it is estimated that in exchange for a red card and a penalty kick, he will be sent off.
After being treated like this, the Brazilian did not complain, but stood up silently from the ground. Although he seemed to be fine, the referee still gave Milan a free kick in the frontcourt—— After all, Neville's action just now was too aboveboard.
After getting up, Kaka deliberately turned his head to look in the direction where Manchester United No. 7 should be, but only saw the back of a fiery No. 7.
In fact, he didn't observe the scene carefully before. He was still immersed in the chorus of the former Red Devils fans.
"D (Glory Belongs to Manchester United)" is the second team song of Manchester United. In my impression, there are several versions of this team song, and the one that makes him most happy and proud of it is naturally the third version: in that version, His name is also mentioned.
Tens of thousands of people sang their names together, as if they were singing praises to their God, what a wonderful feeling it was!Especially when another song "There is only one Ronaldo" that belongs only to him sounds!
The Portuguese, who was still nostalgic, was brought back to his senses by the exclamation, but when he turned around, he saw Milan's No. 22 lying on the ground and crawling up, while the referee said something to Gary with a serious face , subconsciously realized something for a moment, and prepared to go forward to see how his friends were doing, but at this time Nesta and Crespo had already surrounded him, so he could only stop his steps and turned around. Run towards the goal and prepare to defend the free kick.
Keane had already stood in front of the goal, but he saw his teammate running over in small steps. The Irishman, who was about to give him a word, suddenly found that his teammate's eyes were red, as if he was about to cry. Same, so he didn't say a word, just patted his head.
"Boy, this is football."
Milan took a free kick in the frontcourt. Seedorf and Pirlo stood in front of the football at the same time. Gloves, staring at those two people as if they were going to eat the football in front of them.
A whistle sounded, and the two started running slowly. As a result, Pirlo accelerated two steps and stepped over the football. Seedorf's right foot slammed on the football.
There was a "bang", followed by screams and a sigh of relief from the fans.
Fortunately, it hit the beam.
In the 12th minute, Manchester United had a chance. Heinze made a direct pass from the left and the ball reached Fortune. Facing the defense of the pawn prince Nesta, Fortune handled the ball calmly and used a He passed through the crotch beautifully and broke Nei Shao's defense directly. Then he took two steps to quickly judge the situation on the field, and passed the ball to a red jersey that was defended by Milan.
Scholes!No one was watching him!
However, Scholes, who broke his national team's three-year record of not scoring a goal in the European Cup, has obviously become unfamiliar with the ball feeling due to the previous scoring shortage. The Red Devil crowd let out a long sigh of disappointment, but it was followed by vigorous applause.
It doesn't matter!They still have a chance!
After 2 minutes, Manchester United had the ball.Scholes obviously wanted to make up for it, but he met Nesta when he was dribbling the ball. Nei Shao, who had been passed through the crotch before, was obviously in a bad mood now, so Scholes It passed, the ball was left, and then it was turned to Rui Costa in midfield.After protecting the ball and looking around, the Portuguese finally found a figure running like the wind—it was Kaka!Although he is currently being defended by the Red Devils captain, it is no problem to get rid of him with the Brazilian's speed.
Rui Costa saw the situation and boldly passed the football. Kaka jumped in to catch the ball at high speed, but at this time Keane seemed to be in a hurry. In his desperation, he thought of his teammate Gary Neville just now. With such a movement, he subconsciously stretched out his hand and knocked Kakara to the ground.
The poor Brazilian fell to the ground twice in less than 15 minutes, Milan also got a free kick in the frontcourt twice, and the poor Portuguese had to go to the wall with his teammates for the second time up.
This time, the only person standing in front of the football was Pirlo. He had a precise deciduous kick, but Manchester United was not defenseless. When he kicked out, the wall jumped high and blocked the ball.
Only 20 minutes into the game is enough to see the gap. Milan's midfield is too strong. Whether it is organizing offense, defense or football delivery, they are well organized. In the following time, the Red Devils are falling. During the kicking process, he tried his best to break through. The only position that was not strictly guarded was here. When the football was passed, the Portuguese looked ahead. It was pure white, which was almost desperate.
Like, the color of Real Madrid.
For a moment, the Portuguese was in a trance, and trance is the most deadly on the field. One mistake, the football was tackled by Cafu, and the ball was broken beautifully and it was a blessing. Even cheating a free kick Disaster.The pressure from the Rossoneri finally made Manchester United impatient. After the football reached Giggs' feet, the Manchester United No. 11 immediately rushed to the opponent's penalty area alone, but did he ask Nei Shao for his opinion? ?
Naturally there is not.
So the Milan iron guard stepped forward and tripped people up, and collected a topaz point card as he wished, and Manchester United finally got a free kick.
But who will take the penalty for this ball?Rooney and Rooney looked at each other, and then the Englishman stepped forward and hugged the football.Although he only came this season, but because he is a native of England, his acceptance in the team is fast , the Portuguese said that he would not be jealous!
But he knows that although Rooney has a good free kick technique, but...it is true that he is not as good as him.
Rooney stood leisurely in front of the arranged football and watched his teammates' performance. When Kaka looked over, he still had the strength to show a relaxed smile to Kaka.
Who cares, anyway, this is not the only chance to free throw, he is so generous, let Lu Xiaopang play by himself!
As a result, Lu Xiaopang, who was "forgiving" to free throws for "playing", hit the wall firmly with a shot. The Brazilian golden boy who didn't go to the wall blinked and smiled at him.
Milan is really good.But if I continue to fish like this now, Manchester United will probably lose miserably today.
He didn't want the brazilian kid to think that he was throwing water or something, otherwise the brat wouldn't be happy even if he won.Thinking of changing positions with Giggs on the right under the signal of Sir Alex Ferguson, the Portuguese began to scurry around the field after arriving at his own position, his activity level increased significantly, and he almost became the legend of the Manchester United team. Small ball expert.
But if he can pass the ball, he can't just attack to the front like this!Tactics are not allowed!And Giggs doesn't seem to be in a good state today. When Ruud van Nistelrooy can only sit on the bench because of his thigh injury, Manchester United's aggressiveness is really greatly weakened.
Is there really no way?
Is Manchester United going to be so helpless until they are finally forced to death by Milan?
Such a situation is absolutely not allowed to happen, so he finally seized the opportunity when actively returning to defense, received the ball in the penalty area of his own side, turned around and started running wildly!
Ronaldo is also a speed player recognized by everyone. The fans in the stands only saw a red flame rushing along the sidewalk like a burning line of fire. There was almost no one in front of him. Five or six Milan The players' defenses couldn't keep up with his footsteps, and Old Trafford was boiling because of him, and a voice resounded in the audience——
"ronaldo!"
