Chapter 1085 No Substitutions

Overtime is a test. It tests the tenacity of the team, the physical limits of the players, the execution of the details of the game on both sides, and the mental endurance of the head coaches of both sides.

While running, Sun Wu kept explaining various details to his teammates, such as the players' positions and defensive strength...

Zidane on the sidelines roared loudly, but unfortunately the noise was a bit loud.

Seeing that the Real Madrid players couldn't hear it, Zidane stopped. He looked at Sun Wu with envy in his eyes. He is also the head coach and is also recognized as a world-class organizational midfielder. How come you can play, and I only Able to stare!

"Okay, I admit I was wrong." Mourinho spread his hands and smiled: "This less than ten minutes is the most exciting period of this game..."

Mortensen: "Real Madrid wants to complete a big comeback, and their morale is high after chasing two goals in a row, but Best?"

"Best will never be willing to take a penalty kick." Mourinho nodded. "In this game, Manchester United has the advantage in all aspects, and he will never be willing to do so."

The first half of this Champions League final was one-sided. It was basically a half-time drill for Manchester United. Real Madrid's counterattack showed no threat.

After Gareth Bale came on the field in the second half, Manchester United began to recover its defense. Real Madrid had several opportunities but failed to seize them until Qi Xuanzong started to cast...

In general, although there were some wonderful shots in the first 90 minutes, the pace of the game was not fast and the transition between offense and defense was not fast, so it was not considered intense.

Unexpectedly, in overtime, the two sides used their last bit of physical fitness and fighting spirit to engage in a fierce offensive battle. Although the players on both sides made mistakes one after another, the game looked better.

After Cristiano Ronaldo's hilarious flop, the two sides fought hand-to-hand with real swords and guns, and the bayonets were red.

In the 94th minute, Gareth Bell cut inside and was intercepted by Herrera. After the collision, the ball was diverted by Pogba and he finally took a shot that hit the target, forcing De Gea to make a wonderful save.

In the 97th minute, Kanter made a rare backcourt mistake. He received Lucas' backcourt cross and reflexively looked for Sun Wu, but Pogba blocked the passing route and Modric suddenly stepped in to steal. ball.

"Modric...he has unlimited physical strength!" The Spanish commentator was full of expectations. "Oh, shoot directly!"

Amid the cheers of Real Madrid fans in the stands, Modric jumped over Sun Wu who was making a shovel.

A volley shot from 28 meters away from the goal, the ball passed De Gea's hand, grazed the crossbar and fell to the top of the net.

Real Madrid's offensive was very strong in these few minutes, and they frequently threatened De Gea. The Real Madrid fans in the stands wiped away their dissatisfaction from the previous 90 minutes, and their singing and shouting also overwhelmed the Manchester United fans.

However, the good times did not last long... Real Madrid's offensive actually mainly relied on Gareth Bale, Pogba and the super physical Modric who came on as substitutes in the second half. The personal abilities of these stars are impeccable, but Real Madrid's overall tactics No loopholes in Manchester United's defense were found.

The most important thing is that Real Madrid's offense needs to mobilize more people to find the opponent's gaps and create possible shooting opportunities.

Manchester United can often break through Real Madrid's defense by relying only on the cooperation of three or two people. The key is of course Sun Wu. There is no need to press heavily. Sun Wu's pulling, running and passing can create good opportunities for his teammates. offensive opportunities.

When Manchester United takes the ball to attack, almost every pass and every move by Sun Wu is like holding up a gleaming dagger. As long as he pokes it, a white knife goes in and a red knife comes out.

In just ten minutes, Casemiro, Vazquez, and Modric all received yellow cards on Sun Wu.

In the 97th minute, Sun Wu's clever movement attracted the attention of Modric and Casemiro. Harry Kane pulled the ball to the outside and turned around to shoot a cold arrow. Navas saved the ball in a thrilling manner. This was his first performance in the game. The 9th successful save of the game.

"What should we look at at this time?" Zhan Jun gritted his teeth. "It depends on the personal ability of the star, the tenacity of the team, and the attention to detail and physical fitness in daily training..."

Zhang Lu frowned: "Manchester United still has one substitution place. In the second half of overtime, Bernardo Silva and Falcao will be substituted for a rush? Maybe it is to prepare for the penalty shootout?"

"It's hard to say, but judging from Manchester United's tactical play in the first half of overtime, Sun Wu did not intend to take a penalty kick." Zhan Jun shook his head, "From all aspects, Manchester United performed very well today and deserved to win." Win this championship.”

In the 100th minute, Mane continuously broke through Ronaldo and Marcelo from the right wing and then passed into the penalty area. Sun Wu made a fancy move in the corner of the small penalty area, pushing with his right foot and raising his left foot. Send the ball to the penalty spot with the inside of your right foot.

"Best...it's a pass!"

"Oh, Herrera didn't even react!"

Mortensen slammed the table with regret, "Oh my god, why did Best replace this Spanish midfielder? Milner, Lingard... even Rashford can score!"

Watching Ramos kick the ball out of the boundary, Herrera pulled up his jersey and covered his face, looking shameless.

It was indeed shameless to see anyone. Sun Wu sent this elusive pass. Herrera near the penalty spot was completely unguarded, but the Spaniard failed to react and did not expect the captain to pass the ball. As a result, he stopped in a hurry. The ball was too big and was destroyed by Ramos.

Sun Wu ignored Herrera's apologetic look and turned to look at the bench players and assistant coaches who were already sitting on the sidelines. Do they need to be replaced?

It is said that penalty kicks test more of a player's psychological quality, but in Sun Wu's view, penalty kicks actually test...luck.

Can you say that Ronaldo's psychological quality is not good? But he missed more than one or two penalty kicks.

You may say that Henry's mental quality is not good, because he always turns his back to the goal and hides behind his teammates in penalty kicks, but he is always the victor.

Among the 22 players standing on this court, there is no one with poor psychological quality... In the final analysis, it is luck, but in terms of luck, can he be compared with Zidane?

That's Qi Xuanzong!

Sun Wu gritted his teeth. I couldn't have made adequate preparations for this game. From tactical selection, pre-game deployment, to starting selection, and player status, I did my best, even if it was the most inconspicuous attack combination in this game. Harry Kane performed perfectly!

This makes me willing to risk my luck, take penalty kicks, and lose the Champions League final that brought me to the top!

"He..." Rolf wanted to say something, but his hoarse voice made him speechless.

Mike Phelan muttered a few words in a low voice, then turned his head and made a calm gesture to the substitute players, indicating that substitutions would not be considered for the time being.
