From the Man Behind the Football King to the Football King

Chapter 602 Zidane's Metaphysics

When the referee showed De Gea a red card, Bruno was also stunned.

Later, as the captain, he negotiated with the referee on duty, Maziqi, but it didn't work.

Bruno had expected this. After all, in the era when VAR was not widely used in football matches, the referee basically would not change the penalty.

Moreover, Bruno was also clear that there was no big problem with the referee's decision, and De Gea's foul was undoubtedly. In that case, whether to give a yellow card or a red card was entirely up to the referee's personal judgment, and any result was acceptable.

Bruno's protest was just to put some pressure on the referee, hoping that in the subsequent games, the referee would make some favorable choices for Manchester United in law enforcement, and he didn't expect him to really change the decision.

After protesting, Bruno left the penalty area and looked at De Gea who was sent off, feeling depressed.

Could it be that Zidane's Real Madrid is really destined, or is it metaphysics?

In another time and space, Liverpool not only had the main scorer injured by a Real Madrid player early in the game, but goalkeeper Karius also made a stupid own goal assist and a low-level butter-hand mistake, which led to Liverpool's 1:3 defeat.

Now, although Manchester United and Real Madrid have fought back and forth in the offense, at the critical moment, De Gea was so excited that he pulled Bale down in the penalty area after being passed, giving the opponent a red card.

Obviously, this is the stupidest choice.

At that time, what if the opponent scored a goal? It's better than giving the opponent a red card, right?

However, De Gea finally made the worst choice.

Is this the so-called "destiny"? Is this metaphysics?

………………

Fans on the Internet were also very disappointed with the result, and they were indignant.

"Damn it! The Yellow Dog has also activated the Godfather mode just like the Brazilian! They are both fake Spanish teams, run!"

"Too shameless! Too despicable!"

"Aha! I told you that the Yellow Dog will definitely win, right?"

"It is said that Godfather Che has already decided that Real Madrid will be the champion before the game. Don't ask me why, I don't know either!"

"UEFA is creating gods. Godfather Pu created a Barcelona before. Is Godfather Che preparing to create another Real Madrid now?"

"I think it was Emperor Qi Xuanzong who activated his metaphysics. Otherwise, why did De Gea suddenly become stupid and foolishly tackle Bale?"

"Traitor! De Gea is a traitor! Before this Champions League final, several Spanish media reported that De Gea was about to transfer to Real Madrid. The duck is submitting his surrender to the new club!"

...

Since the Manchester United fax machine incident in the summer of 2015, De Gea finally chose to renew his contract with Manchester United until 2019.

Last summer, when De Gea's contract was only two years away, Manchester United intended to renew the contract with De Gea, but De Gea chose to refuse.

At the end of this season, when De Gea's contract with Manchester United entered the last year, Manchester United again proposed to De Gea to renew the contract, but the media reported that De Gea refused to renew the contract again.

In the past few years, Real Madrid has never stopped poaching De Gea.

This is why fans say De Gea is a traitor.

………………

Mourinho was very emotional after being awarded a penalty. He roared at the fourth official for a full minute, but to no avail. He was quickly pulled back by assistant coach Carrick.

Manchester United cannot lose another head coach after losing a player, otherwise it will be a disaster. Such a game cannot be played.

Mourinho quickly made a decision after calming down and let substitute goalkeeper Romero play.

Because goalkeeper De Gea was sent off, a player in another position needed to be removed to allow Romero to come on the bench. Mourinho chose to replace the central defender Maguire. This was a very risky move. Obviously, he had decided to go all out. If he failed, he would die.

This was not the first time he was so crazy. In the past, when Manchester United was still behind in the score near the end of the game, he would often send a large number of forwards to attack the opponent's defense. For example, in one game, he put five forwards on the court and finally successfully completed the reversal.

In the Champions League final, Mourinho did not care about the impact of the lack of a central defender on the team's rear. If Manchester United could not score at this time, it would be no different from death.

De Gea walked off the court with his head down in frustration. Mourinho took the initiative to hug him, then patted him on the back and motioned him to go back to the locker room.

Maguire trotted to the sidelines and completed the handover with Romero. Romero ran back to the front of the goal to prepare to defend the penalty kick.

………………

Real Madrid sent Ronaldo to take the penalty kick.

In the Champions League scoring competition, Ronaldo ranked first with 15 goals, 2 goals ahead of Bruno. If he scored this penalty, he would have basically secured the Champions League Golden Boot this season.

Ronaldo took the ball from his teammate, but surprisingly gave it to Bale.

The BBC combination is the Real Madrid trident consisting of Bale, Benzema and Ronaldo. Their partnership has allowed Real Madrid to reach the final four times in the past five years, and has helped the Galaxy Battleship win the Champions League three times, which can be said to make the entire football world tremble.

This combination has created countless gorgeous attacks on the football field and has become a magic weapon for Real Madrid to win the championship.

The achievements of the BBC combination are unquestionable, but the relationship between Bale and Ronaldo has always been controversial.

The media has repeatedly exposed the internal strife of the BBC, and the relationship between Bale and Ronaldo has also been in crisis many times.

The earliest one was the second season when Bale joined Real Madrid. At that time, because Bale played more alone on the field, Ronaldo had a black face many times.

In this season, the relationship between Bale and Ronaldo is even more tense. In addition, the relationship between Ronaldo and Florentino is not good. There have been many reports in the media that Real Madrid will clean up Ronaldo after the end of the season and rebuild Real Madrid with Bale as the core.

But what people didn't expect was that at this time, Ronaldo would take the initiative to give up the penalty kick. This is really the sun rising from the west.

Perhaps, this is Ronaldo taking the initiative to resolve the deadlock between the two?

………………

The protesting Manchester United players have been driven out of the penalty area by the referee. No matter how unconvinced they are, they can only accept this result.

Romero, who just came on, only warmed up for three minutes and was unable to stop Bale's shot. The Welsh winger easily kicked the ball into the goal.

"GOOOOOOOOOOOL!! Gareth Bale! Gareth Bale! The Welsh star who just returned from injury scored twice in less than 15 minutes after coming on as a substitute!"

"Real Madrid reversed the lead 3:2! This is their first lead in this game! Although it came a little late, it was finally before the end of the game!"

"Real Madrid fans can now breathe a sigh of relief, because their team is sure to win!"

"In the 74th minute, Real Madrid relied on a penalty kick to lead Manchester United 3:2!"

...

Amid the cheers, only the English commentator Andy Gray was still loudly criticizing the referee's decision: "Such a decision is really...good, a wonderful final was ruined!"

He was still upset about the referee's decision that did not pay attention to the "art of law enforcement" at all.

………………

Just as the Real Madrid players were celebrating the goal, Mourinho made another adjustment. He replaced the goal hero Mbappe with Ibrahimovic.

Manchester United changed its formation from 433 to 333, with Ibrahimovic in the middle, Rashford on the right, Harry Kane on the left, and Gundogan, Bruno and Kante forming a parallel midfield.

Mourinho is going to fight to the death!

Commentators from all over the world were also stunned by Mourinho's substitution.

"Oh! Mourinho's two substitutions are really a crazy decision!"

"Unexpected Mourinho! Respectable Manchester United! I think no matter what the final result is, Mourinho and his Manchester United have won the respect of the world. With one less player, Mourinho did not shrink and defend like he did eight years ago at Inter Milan, but chose to attack bravely! Even if he fails, it is still an honor to lose!"

"Mourinho is desperate. At this time, Manchester United really has no better choice except attacking. It's just that this desperate gamble looks tragic..."

"Mourinho replaced Mbappe and Maguire, and sent Ibrahimovic to continue to strengthen the attack. Now there are more than ten minutes before the end of the game. Can they get what they want?"

……

………………

After seeing Mourinho's substitutions, many people expressed respect for Manchester United's courage, but in fact, they have long believed that Real Madrid will win the championship. The powerful Real Madrid will win the 13th Champions League trophy in their team history.

Three defenders, one man short, and they still want to beat Real Madrid?

It's just a fantasy!

Manchester United fans in the stands have the same confusion. Whether it is the current situation or Mourinho's gambling-like substitutions, all signs indicate that this game is becoming more unfavorable for Manchester United.

Is it over?

Just give up?

In this case, what else can Manchester United do to reverse this unfavorable situation?

Many Manchester United fans thought for a long time and only came to this conclusion. No matter what they do, there is little hope. Maybe they will lose today, in the last game of the 2017-2018 season...
