Chapter 847 Apart From Failure, What Else Can You Take Away...
"Oooh...Modric's outer instep!"
"Beautiful pass to Coleman... Isco has the ball!"
Rojo, who had just stepped forward to grab Benzema, desperately chased back, but it was too late. Cristiano Ronaldo on the right sprinted at high speed and raised his hand high to signal the cross.
But Isco, who had only played for two minutes, made a leisurely cross with his left foot, dunked past Coleman who was returning to defend, and then... carried the ball back and sent a return pass.
The disappointed Ronaldo flew into rage in the penalty area, waving his hands and complaining loudly, but Zidane on the sidelines was applauding gently. He replaced Gareth Bale with Isco just to gain more control in the midfield. ...Well, to put it mildly, it’s just killing time.
1 to 1, this score gave Zidane the confidence to eliminate Manchester United in the second round.
However, the next moment, Zidane's face turned dark, and Isco passed back to Marcelo, who crossed to Pogba.
Pogba leaned against Schneiderlin and began to show his footwork again... A beautiful cow's tail staggered Mane who was rushing towards him, and then Pogba turned around with the ball and tried to bypass Schneiderlin.
Among the 11 players on the field at Real Madrid, there are two people who most hope to score goals and win the game. One is Cristiano Ronaldo who will never stop, and the other is still looking forward to a counterattack. Pogba.
"Pogba lost the ball again... Oh, it was actually Griezmann's interception!"
Mortensen raised his arm, "Fletcher... pass the ball!"
"careful!"
"boom!"
It was a violent collision comparable to a car accident. Casemiro's flying tackle knocked Fletcher over, but the Scottish midfielder had already passed the ball first.
The referee stretched his arms flat to indicate a favorable offensive principle. Mane directly passed the ball far away from the right wing, and then accelerated and hit Marcelo with his shoulder!
"Mane...is not falling to the ground...accelerate!"
"accelerate!"
Mortensen shouted very fast, "Beautiful breakthrough...cross!"
"Januzai...Best!"
"Oh oh,
Goooooooooooooooooooooooooal! "
"In the 85th minute, Best scored the second goal for Manchester United. This is a key goal!"
"2-1, 2-1, Manchester United exceeds the score again!"
Sun Wu, who kicked the ball into the goal with the sole of his foot, rushed to the sidelines crazily and jumped straight into the Manchester United fans behind the goal!
"Best! Best!"
"Our No. 7 Best!"
"Best at Old Trafford!"
"Best with black hair and black eyes!"
Screams mixed with singing lingered over the Old Trafford Stadium. The Chinese fans in the southwest corner were jubilant. The five-star red flag was flying high there, causing frequent close-ups of live broadcast cameras.
"It has been emphasized many times that Manchester United's passing and running cooperation is so tacit. After Griezmann intercepted the ball, the running positions of several offensive players in Manchester United's frontcourt changed obviously!" Zhan Jun said excitedly: "Who No one expected that it was Sun Wu who rushed into the penalty area to complete the goal, and it was an unconventional shooting action!"
"Look at the replay... Mane made a pass, and Januzaj, who had just come on the field, suddenly made a high-speed pass from the left side of the midfield to the front of the penalty area. Both Ramos and Varane noticed it, but they missed Sun Wu. "
"Sun Wu first ran a few steps towards Mane in the middle, and then suddenly came in and made a cross move with Januzaj!"
"He raised his leg high and kicked the ball in with the sole of his shoe... Sun Wu got ahead of Carvajal!" Zhang Lu praised: "But apart from this kind of shooting method, it is really difficult to deal with, Mane's cross It was just around the waist, the header was too short, and it couldn’t be reached with normal shooting movements. The ball flew too fast and there was no time to catch it and hit it in the air... I really had no choice but to kick it!"
Benzema kicked off for the third time in this game. Sun Wu, who was standing near the midline, turned to look at Pochettino on the sidelines. He was explaining something to Herrera, who was about to come on as a substitute.
Just now, Casemiro's flying tackle with both feet sent Fletcher off the field for treatment. He also received a yellow card. He will miss the second round due to suspension due to accumulation of yellow cards.
Zidane on the other side is also preparing to make a substitution. Well, it's a strange guy, No. 24 Illarramendi, a Spanish defensive midfielder who has played very few games this season.
Is this to replace Pogba?
There is no doubt about the status of Real Madrid's midfielder Modric. Isco has just come on and Casemiro is the main defender, so he can only replace Pogba.
Sun Wu smiled and turned to look at Pogba not far away, "Look, I said, you can take nothing away except failure."
The voice of these words was a bit louder, let alone Pogba, even Ronaldo and Isco heard it clearly... Although Pogba's face was dark, Sun Wu could clearly see the anger on his face. And the blush appears.
After taking the lead again, Sun Wu directed Manchester United to suddenly start a high-position pressing in front of the formation. The whole game was coming to an end, but Manchester United only started to use their best high-position pressing tactics at this moment.
Sun Wu could see clearly that the current Real Madrid crowd was divided. After conceding the ball again, Cristiano Ronaldo, Isco, and Pogba all wanted to attack. Even Benzema was shouted at by Cristiano Ronaldo to move forward, but Mo The key piece of Delic stayed behind.
In other words, Real Madrid's formation is out of touch now!
This is a good opportunity to beat up the drowned dog!
In the 89th minute, Modric wanted to show off his best instep pass again, but this time Sun Wu predicted in advance and blocked the passing route. The Croatian immediately put down his right foot and turned around flexibly... But Januzaj Cut the ball off!
"Steal in the frontcourt... Modric lost the ball!"
"Manchester United attacks on the spot... Best makes a diagonal pass... Griezmann pushes... Best!"
Sun Wu's diagonal pass found Griezmann who had pulled out of the penalty area. The latter leaned on Ramos and made a slight move. Sun Wu, who bypassed Casemiro, appeared on the right side of the penalty area.
"Oh, serious tactical foul!"
"Damn the French!" McMalaman couldn't help but reprimanded loudly, "The two-foot tackle from the side... Pogba is trying to tackle Best's leg!"
Griezmann, Januzaj and Schneiderlin all rushed forward. Casemiro and Varane blocked Pogba behind them. Swear words and spittle flew between the two groups.
Zidane on the sidelines watched this scene speechlessly, "Damn Pogba, you didn't even give me this little time for substitutions!" ?
Illarramendi's eyes were blank. He felt that his chance to play was gone...
This time Sun Wu didn't need to perform. The referee who rushed over immediately showed Pogba a red card and expelled him.
Pogba covered his head with his jersey and walked to the sidelines. Along the way, his teammates from last season shouted and cursed. The fans in the stands gave him thunderous boos. Even Linga on the bench Dedu is scolding... He was Pogba's teammate in the youth team back then, and the two have always had a good relationship.
Pochettino ignored Pogba who walked by blankly, but looked nervously at Sun Wu who was still lying on the ground.
Climbing up from the lawn and rubbing his ankles, Sun Wu made an OK gesture to the sidelines, indicating to Dr. Swale not to enter the field... When the team doctor entered the field, Sun Wu had to leave the field. Now because of Fletcher's injury, Manchester United It was originally a battle of ten people.
Pochettino was relieved that there was no need to change the roster, so he replaced Fletcher with Herrera.
The live broadcast showed a close-up of Pogba's back as he walked into the tunnel, which looked quite forlorn.
Zhan Jun, who was relieved after seeing Sun Wu get up, smiled and said: "More than a month ago, Sun Wu left a message on Pogba's Twitter, claiming that Pogba could take nothing away from Old Trafford except failure. "
"Now it seems that Sun Wu was wrong. In addition to the failure, Pogba also took away a red card."
