Chapter 1084 Reappearance
After the restart, boos, applause, and shouts erupted from the Meazza stadium stands, but Sun Wu discerned the most special thing among the noisy business.
Turning around, he saw a shirtless fan beating the huge drum in front of him under the five-star red flag flying in the sky. The sound of drums shocked Sun Wu.
In the last few minutes, Real Madrid players tried to continue their efforts to complete the big comeback, but Sun Wu quickly let them know that it was just good luck that you could equalize the score.
In the 91st minute, Pogba took the ball in the middle and broke through Herrera. He passed the ball to Vazquez who came back to meet him, and he tried to get around Kanter to catch the ball.
But Sun Wu accurately predicted and intercepted the ball with a sliding tackle, and not just intercepted the ball.
"Oh, this is Best's counterattack!" Mortensen shouted.
Sun Wu's best-style counterattack has long been famous all over the world. His sliding tackle is a typical example. He not only steals the ball, but also shovels the ball behind Marcelo in front of him on the right. Mane is like a wild dog on the loose. Catch up with the forced inside cut.
In the end, Marcelo terminated Mane's attack at the cost of a yellow card, and the game time came to an end. After a short break, there will be a 30-minute overtime.
Physiotherapists from both sides quickly ran into the field to massage the players. While receiving the massage, Sun Wu loudly explained the arrangements for the overtime game.
"Judging from this 90-minute game, Manchester United has an advantage in all aspects of tactics, details, and player status... Well, the only thing they lack may be luck." Mourinho commented.
"But it's hard to say when it comes to overtime. Manchester United continued to press high for more than 40 minutes in the first half. Real Madrid has an advantage in terms of physical fitness."
Mortensen had a different opinion, "Both sides were nearly exhausted in overtime. Even if Real Madrid had an advantage in this regard, it was very limited, and you must know that Best still has a substitution spot."
Sun Wu looked around. Manchester United had received four yellow cards so far, namely Salah, Fletcher, Lucas and Griezmann, but the first two were already off the field.
Sun Wu doesn't think Manchester United will suffer much in terms of overall physical fitness, but Lucas may not be able to keep up with the physically fit Gareth Bale because of his physical fitness, not to mention that he still has a yellow card.
After carefully taking stock in his mind, Sun Wu regretted not putting Luke Shaw in the squad. Manchester United still needed to attack in overtime. Rojo defended fiercely, but he was far inferior to Lucas and Lu in terms of assists. K. Shaw.
In the end, Sun Wu decided not to make any substitutions for the time being.
However, Herrera was asked to help defend the left wing in the second half and Lucas was asked to reduce the number of assists.
"You don't press high, but you can't be pressed by Real Madrid within the 30-meter area." Sun Wu clapped his hands, "Pressure defense, advance quickly after stealing the ball, don't worry about mistakes."
"Mane, don't stick to the right wing in overtime. You can switch to the middle or even the left wing." Sun Wu pointed at Pavard. "When Mane switches positions, you have to pay attention to Ronaldo's position and don't press him. Too far forward.”
Seeing that everyone was not in a high mood, Sun Wu smiled and said, "Okay, I know everyone feels bad."
"We did our best in this game, but Real Madrid equalized the score inexplicably. To be honest, I can't understand it. The two substitutions of Pogba and Vazquez are really..."
"But I can guarantee that when we take the lead again, there will be no chance that Real Madrid will equalize again!"
"Because Real Madrid has used up their substitution quota!"
"The road to winning the Triple Crown is never smooth. If we want to become the only team in Europe to win the Triple Crown twice, we need to pay more!"
"We have been rejected by the goalpost four times, but I believe that if we persist until the end, Lady Luck will definitely lift her skirt for us!"
The Manchester United fans in the stands did not rest. Although their voices were hoarse, they still sang loudly. They never put down their hands waving flags and scarves. The drums from the square of Chinese fans never stopped.
Sun Wu was stunned for a while, remembering that this would be the second overtime in his career.
In the 2007 FA Cup final, Sun Wu scored a goal with his left foot at the last moment and dragged the game into overtime. However, just as the penalty shootout was about to begin, Cristiano Ronaldo made a successful dive in the penalty area and won the penalty kick.
Coincidentally, Ronaldo is also on the court today.
Thinking of this, Sun Wu turned his head and looked at Van Dijk and Alderweireld, "Be careful of that Portuguese dive!"
The two looked at each other inexplicably, and Van Dijk nodded, "We have always been careful."
Rolf on the side is very sensitive to data, "Cristiano Ronaldo has only scored two penalty kicks this season, and only five penalty kicks in the last three seasons."
Mike Phelan added: "Best, this data... is exactly the same as yours. Even if you two are really violated in the penalty area, the chance of the referee taking a penalty kick is less than 30%."
Sun Wu rolled his eyes. He and Cristiano Ronaldo were both masters in this way back then, and now it's time to repay the debt. However, Cristiano Ronaldo was much worse than him. Once, his calf was kicked so hard that it bled, and the referee turned a blind eye.
"Manchester United did not make any substitutions." Zhan Jun was a little surprised, "Sun Wu holds the last substitution spot in his hands."
"Beep!"
"The first half of overtime has begun." Zhang Lu looked tense. "Real Madrid pressed high from the beginning... This is very surprising."
In Zidane's tactical system, high-position pressing is an unconventional tactic that is rarely used. It was only used after 80 minutes in this game.
"Zidane wanted to catch Manchester United off guard." Mourinho made the most reasonable judgment, "Look at Ronaldo's movement, he and Gareth Bale both appeared on the right!"
Although Real Madrid's high-position press was average in terms of tacit understanding and tactical layout, Casemiro suddenly stepped forward and stole the ball from Herrera's feet. The referee shook his head and said there was no foul.
Mortensen gritted his teeth and said: "Lucas has a yellow card... Why didn't Best make a substitution? Rojo is still on the bench... Oh, Ronaldo wiped it, and Lucas didn't dare to foul! "
Cristiano Ronaldo forced his way past Lucas from the outside, but the latter did not dare to push behind him. He was really afraid that the Portuguese would take advantage of the situation to make a difficult dive. In overtime, it was 10 to 11, and the best outcome for Manchester United would be to survive. It's time for a penalty shootout.
After getting rid of Lucas, Ronaldo rushed into the penalty area to face Herrera. After a change of rhythm, he started to speed up again and tried to enter the small penalty area. At this time, a red figure blocked in front of him.
Cristiano Ronaldo moved the ball forward without hesitation, and then turned sideways after contact with his body. He rolled half a dozen times in the air, then fell to the lawn and rolled three or four more times, all of which rolled directly out of the baseline!
Huge boos sounded in the stands. This young boy who chased the wind once used various difficult diving moves to give Manchester United a penalty kick at Old Trafford, but today Manchester United fans booed him.
The reason is very simple. Cristiano Ronaldo thought his performance was wonderful, but in fact it was clumsy. It was not because of Cristiano Ronaldo's poor acting skills, but because his opponent did not cooperate.
Amidst the boos, the referee shook his head and smiled and ran over to give Ronaldo a yellow card. Gareth Bale, Carvajal and even Ronaldo himself were too embarrassed to protest.
"This is an obvious flop, and it is a malicious accusation against Van Dijk!" Zhang Lu was filled with indignation. "I remember that AC Milan goalkeeper Dida was banned for a long time because of this crime!"
Zhan Jun couldn't help laughing and echoed a few words. In the replay, Van Dijk, who was defending, braked suddenly, raised his hands high and even inhaled and retracted his abdomen. Cristiano Ronaldo flew away as if he was hit by a heavy truck without touching the Dutch defender at all. go out……
Van Dijk looked back at Sun Wu, who gave him a thumbs up.
