Chapter 140: Do your best

Even after Real Madrid scored two goals in a row to reverse the score, they still did not relax their offense in the subsequent games. Fortunately, Manchester United's subsequent defense was still stable, and they resolved the danger several times and did not continue to concede the ball.

In the last stage of the first half, the pace of the game slowed down, and Real Madrid players seemed very relaxed. Every time they touched the ball, they would cheer from fans.

Until the referee Frisk blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the score remained at 2:1.

The score does not seem to be a huge difference, but anyone who has watched the first half knows that Real Madrid almost firmly controls the first half of the game and leaves no chances for Manchester United.

At the same time, everyone has to admit that Real Madrid, composed of Figo and Carlos, is indeed full of attack power. The two goals they scored were all planned on the left, completely knocking Manchester United's right.

Controlling the ball rights and rhythm on the court, Real Madrid can continuously plan more and more threatening offensives.

……………………

After the side change again in the second half, Manchester United adopted a more resolute defensive tactic.

For the current 1:2 score, both Ferguson and Manchester United players are acceptable. This means that they only need a small 1:0 victory to eliminate their opponents.

However, the attack line of Real Madrid is indeed too strong. Even if Manchester United retreated completely, they quickly lost their third goal in the game.

In the 49th minute, Van Nie wanted to give Scholes, but the ball passed too badly. Marklele intercepted the ball on the edge of the penalty area to counterattack. Carlos handed it to Raul in the middle circle. Zidane immediately passed to the left. Figo broke into the penalty area to attract two defenders, and then dunked Brown to knock back in the middle. Raul slowed down and shot with his left foot from 22 meters into the lower right corner. Real Madrid expanded the score to 3:1.

The Lord of the Rings is Manchester United nemesis. He scored twice at Old Trafford three years ago, and today he scored two more goals.

Although Manchester United is at a clear disadvantage in the field, they are not powerless to fight back.

In the 52nd minute, Zidane turned around near the center line to get rid of it, but was pulled down by Giggs. Zidane sat on the ground and raised his hand to signal a foul, but Frisk ignored it at all. Scholes ran 30 meters from the left and made a pass. Yin Jun passed back from the right. Bart knocked on the right again. Neville waded through Carlos, who was falling to the ground and tackled the ball in front of the goal. Giggs' right foot volleyed half a volley from the front post 7 meters away. Casillas blocked it hard, and Van Nie followed in time to push into the empty goal. Manchester United scored 2:3.

Fanny has scored 11 goals in the Champions League this season, setting a new Champions League record set by Raul from 1999 to 2000. He also tied Raul's record last season. If the qualifiers are included, Fanny has scored 13 goals this season.

Fanny also increased his Champions League consecutive goal record to 8 games, and if the qualifiers are included, he scored 9 consecutive games. In the Champions League total scorer list, Fanny and Cruivit tied for second place (29 goals). In 43 European games, Fanny scored a total of 32 goals.

……………………

Manchester United scored another goal, and the situation became tense again. Especially Real Madrid, who played at home, was obviously unacceptable to this score.

Although the score of 3:2 also won, Manchester United scored two away goals, which would make Real Madrid very passive when they were away from Old Trafford.

Manchester United is acceptable to this score, with a small loss away, but he scored two away goals, which is not a bad result.

With both sides' thoughts, the next game became very intense. Real Madrid, who played at home, tried their best to attack, while the away team Manchester United tried their best to defend.

Manchester United's defense line still seems relatively solid most of the time in this game. When the team needs to defend, they do not lose the chain anymore, causing the team's goal to fall for the fourth time.

However, Manchester United also paid a huge price for this. In the 64th minute, Neville was given a yellow card for a foul against Zidane, and he would miss the next home game. In the 77th minute, Salgado caused Scholes to receive a yellow card, and the latter would miss the second round 15 days later.

Before the second leg of the game began, Manchester United had already lost two generals.

……………………

When the whistle at the end of the game sounded, Yin Jun knelt on the grass at the Bernabeu Stadium. He wiped the sweat from his face with both hands, closed his eyes, and felt the tsunami coming from the stands. It was obviously not for him, but he still enjoyed it in this atmosphere.

Although I lost tonight's game, Yin Jun did not feel regretful, or painful or sad at all, because he really did his best!

He has tried his best to work until the last moment, but Real Madrid is indeed strong, better than Manchester United's overall strength. In addition, he can play 2:3 with his opponent at home, so he can really say that he has no regrets.

Even no matter how picky the fans in the world are, they should not question him and Manchester United. What's more, this is the Champions League quarterfinals knockout match, and both sides have the second round of the game, everything is still unknown!

Although there is still memory of the second leg of this series in my memory, according to the current score, if the game is played as it is in my memory, Manchester United will still be eliminated. However, Yin Jun believes that with his own Manchester United, the game should be different.

Just like this game!

Of course, even if the second round of the game was still like what he remembered, Yin Jun couldn't accept it.

Although the champion looks a little different because the Champions League final this season was played at Old Trafford Stadium, he would not lose his inch if he really couldn't enter the Champions League final at Old Trafford Stadium.

He is still young, and he is a giant team like Manchester United. During the time Ferguson continued to coach Manchester United, he and his teammates had the opportunity to compete for the Champions League trophy.

What's more, at the critical moment, he still has a trump card to use.

……………………

Just as Yin Jun was dreaming about it, captain Roy Keane came over and asked him and his teammates to thank the Manchester United fans who came to the Bernabeu Stadium to support the team.

This is the rule of away games.

Fans followed the team all the way to the away game, and the players should give them some thanks after a game, especially for losses like tonight.

The Red Devils fans in the stands were not disappointed, but encouraged the players and told all the players that they were very satisfied with them.

Real Madrid, who played the 20th Century best team away and won the Champions League nine times, is not easy to compete 2:3. What's more, there is a second leg game.

The players also applauded the fans and expressed their gratitude to them.
