Chapter 1066: Locking the Victory

After Gao Xiaodong received the ball, since Pedro did not come back in the middle, Gao Xiaodong had no defensive players in front of him, and the wing could be said to be smooth sailing.

If it were Fabio, at this time, the young man would definitely not dare to assist easily, because he could not bear the responsibility of being counterattacked after losing the ball.

Gao Xiaodong is different. He has a very high status in the team and is a very brave man. Gao Xiaodong will not miss this opportunity to counterattack.

Gao Xiaodong moved the ball forward and quickly advanced along the wing toward the midfield.

Because Barcelona's attack just now was too fierce, all their midfielders were pressed into Manchester United's half, and Manchester United's midfielders except Giggs were all pressed into the penalty area.

In this way, when Gao Xiaodong dribbles the ball and attacks, the only players Barcelona can defend are Puyol, Mascherano and Abidal, and the only players Manchester United can participate in the attack are Rooney and Giggs.

There was no one on the side to block him. Gao Xiaodong advanced very fast and reached the area of ​​30 meters in the blink of an eye.

Previously, Abidal was afraid of Gao Xiaodong's speed and did not force him to defend. However, after Gao Xiaodong came to the thirty-meter area, Abidal could no longer retreat significantly, because if he was too far away from Gao Xiaodong, Gao Xiaodong might get involved. Che and Rooney worked together to deal with the only central defender Mascherano.

Abidal could not count on his midfielder to return to defense. By this time, the physical fitness of the Barcelona players had already been exhausted. With Gao Xiaodong advancing so quickly, it was impossible for Busquets, Xavi and Iniesta to come back.

At this time, Abidal weighed and could only choose the defense with the least damage, get closer to the inside, and let Xiaodong break through to the bottom line.

The situation was critical. The Barcelona fans in the stands saw it and were anxious in their hearts. They desperately shouted the names of several midfielders and frontcourt players, asking them to come back and defend quickly.

At this moment, Manchester United fans were equally nervous. Although Barcelona was missing one player, they still launched several threatening attacks. It was only because of bad luck that they failed to score. Now this attack launched by Gao Xiaodong is very critical. If this attack If it succeeds, Manchester United will seal the victory. If it is destroyed, the next seven or eight minutes will still be a tense and anxious situation. Maybe an accident will change Manchester United's current overall advantage.

Manchester United fans now pin their hopes on Gao Xiaodong. Almost all of them stood up and shouted at Gao Xiaodong: "Pass him! Pass him!" "Go in one more! Go in one more!"

Facing the wild shouts of the fans, Gao Xiaodong was not lost. He knew that the person standing opposite him was a top full-back with excellent strength, speed and experience. He could not break through casually. He had to find the right time and rhythm to attack.

Abidal focused on preventing Gao Xiaodong from cutting inside. He believed that Gao Xiaodong was the least threat from the base. Gao Xiaodong simply took advantage of the situation. He made a fake move of cutting inside, quickly dunked the ball over, and pushed hard towards the baseline. Sprint to the baseline.

Gao Xiaodong's fake move of cutting inside was actually very fake, but Abidal was too afraid of cutting inside. When he saw Gao Xiaodong about to cut inside, he immediately reacted violently, so that when Gao Xiaodong buckled back and lowered the ball, , Abidal couldn't keep up.

Abidal is not as fast as Gao Xiaodong, but because he is very close to the baseline, even if Gao Xiaodong is faster than Abidal, it will be difficult for Gao Xiaodong to completely avoid Abidal's defensive range.

But after taking advantage of Gao Xiaodong's fake move, Abidal turned around and slowed down a step first, then another step. When Gao Xiaodong reached the baseline, Abidal couldn't keep up at all.

Gao Xiaodong's goal is of course not to make a pass from the bottom. This is what Abidal and Barcelona's defensive players want him to do.

In the middle, Barcelona's only defensive player is Mascherano, but Manchester United's only defensive player is Rooney. If Gao Xiaodong passes the ball, Rooney has the advantage, but the advantage is not obvious. Mascherano The speed and power are at their peak, and the flexibility is better than Rooney. It is difficult for Rooney to take advantage of Mascherano.

Gao Xiaodong tried his best to get rid of Abidal, his purpose was not to pass but to cut inside.

Gao Xiaodong observed Abidal's distance through super glasses. When he was approaching the baseline, he suddenly slowed down. Seeing Abidal slowing down, Gao Xiaodong immediately accelerated forward and moved the ball towards the penalty area.

Gao Xiaodong's deceleration was obvious. Abidal felt that Gao Xiaodong was about to stop suddenly, fearing that he could not control his center of gravity and rush out of the bottom line. He also quickly slowed down, but unexpectedly Gao Xiaodong then accelerated and cut inside along the bottom line.

Abidal is 1.86 meters tall and has a high center of gravity. It is not easy to accelerate or decelerate. He was not close to Gao Xiaodong just now. Now he was thrown further by Gao Xiaodong. When Gao Xiaodong cut inside and rushed past him. , Abidal tried his best to reach out to pull Gao Xiaodong, but it was a little short, and he could only watch Gao Xiaodong speed past in front of him.

Gao Xiaodong crossing Abidal's defense is a nightmare for Barcelona, ​​because one of Gao Xiaodong and Rooney must be unguarded.

Valdes quickly moved closer to the left post to prevent Gao Xiaodong from shooting directly into the near corner.

Mascherano was very conflicted. He did not dare to intercept Gao Xiaodong. He was afraid that Gao Xiaodong would pass the ball to Rooney and hit an empty goal. He was also worried that Gao Xiaodong would dodge and shoot from an angle, so he had to stand a little distance away from Rooney, standing between Gao Xiaodong and Rooney. Online, I want to take care of both Gao Xiaodong and Rooney at the same time.

Although Gao Xiaodong was unguarded, it was not easy for him to handle the ball. Both Giggs and Rooney were guarded. The shooting angle was small, and the goalkeeper had blocked the near corner.

Everyone is thinking about what they would do if they were Gao Xiaodong? Direct shot or pass?

Gao Xiaodong chose to shoot. After he waded the ball into the penalty area, he moved the ball towards the penalty area line and made a curved ball with the arch of his right foot and flew straight to the back corner of the goal.

Valdez is not tall, but he reacts quickly. When Gao Xiaodong moved the ball, he guessed that Gao Xiaodong might want to lob the back corner. He rushed out to prevent Gao Xiaodong's lob.

However, the ball played by Gao Xiaodong had a very wide arc. Valdez rushed out and jumped but could not touch the ball. The ball passed by Valdez's hand like a precise guidance and flew into the goal post. net.

4:2

In the 112th minute of the game, Gao Xiaodong once again scored Barcelona's goal with a wonderful lob.

The Barcelona fans in the stands fell to the ground like empty sacks.

Manchester United fans are going crazy, this is a goal that determines the championship! The fans who had stood up long ago and waited for the goal rushed to the guardrail with cheers and cheers, shouting at Gao Xiaodong through the guardrail: "High, high, high..."

Gao Xiaodong was also crazy. The goal he just scored was also a risk for him. If he didn't score, he would have to bear huge pressure. At this time, all the pressure was released. Gao Xiaodong took off his jersey and ran towards it waving. Grandstand.

Ferguson, who was on the sidelines, rushed to the court with his arms raised high and hugged Giggs and Scholes tightly as they ran out of the court.

This may be the last Champions League trophy for the members of Manchester United's Class of 92 and their mentor. How can they not be ecstatic at this moment.

In the VIP box, Glazer's sons and daughters also rushed out of the VIP box with surprise and excitement to celebrate. They also understood that the Big Ears Cup belonged to Manchester United.

Edward felt bad even when he was happy. How much he hoped that it wasn't the bastard Gao Xiaodong who decided victory.

Emma stared at Gao Xiaodong, who was worshiped by tens of thousands of Manchester United fans. While she was happy for Gao Xiaodong, her mood was a little complicated. She didn't know if this was the man in her mind? She likes Gao Xiaodong's confidence, success, and humor, but at the same time she hates his machismo and Chinese identity. Maybe she needs to wait a little longer.

The most frustrated person is undoubtedly Messi. Sitting in the locker room, Messi cried. He believed that it was his being sent off that caused Barcelona to lose the championship. Otherwise, he would have scored goals if Barcelona had given him several opportunities. Yes, now he has not only lost the Champions League, but he may have also lost this year's Ballon d'Or. He lost, and he lost in the same way to Gao Xiaodong two years ago. This feeling makes Messi painful. Heartbroken and ashamed.
