The day after the game, major newspapers around the world reported frantically on Manchester United's eight-goal victory over Schalke 04.

Such a hearty victory actually happened in the knockout stages of the Champions League. This is absolutely unbelievable, and everyone feels incredible.

This is also Manchester United's largest victory in the history of the Champions League knockout rounds. In the Champions League quarter-finals 12 years ago, Manchester United once slaughtered the Giallorossi Roma with a score of 7:1, but compared to today's 8:0, it was not. It's a little shabby.

………………

"The Times" used the back of Bruno kneeling in front of the stands after scoring as their front page cover, and the headline above was just two words, perfect!

Fleet Street's most authoritative newspaper reported this game in a large space, and gave Bruno a very high evaluation, thinking that this was his most perfect game since landing in the Premier League.

"One goal and five assists in a single game! This happened in the knockout round of the Champions League. The 24-year-old Bruno inadvertently created another unprecedented Champions League record."

“Since participating in the Champions League for the first time in the 2014-2015 season, Bruno has delivered outstanding results every year. For example, in the 2014-2015 season, he tied Cristiano Ronaldo’s Champions League single-season record in 13 games. His performance of 17 goals and 9 assists helped Udinese win the first Champions League in team history; in the 2015-2016 season, he scored 14 goals and 5 assists in 10 appearances and once again helped Udinese reach the quarterfinals of the Champions League; In the season, he scored 14 goals and provided 11 assists in 12 games, helping Manchester United win the Champions League after ten years.”

………………

"This season, before the second leg of the quarter-finals, Bruno had scored 9 goals in the Champions League and also sent 5 assists. But after one night, this report card was refreshed to 10 goals and 10 times. With a double-double performance in assists, Bruno ranks first in both the scorer and assists lists!”

"This season is only Bruno's fourth season in the Champions League, but he has already scored 55 goals and 35 assists. In the historical scorer list of the Champions League, Bruno has surpassed Di Stefano, Henry, Lewandowski and others. The superstar ranks sixth, only one goal behind former Manchester United superstar Ruud van Nistelrooy's 56 goals. In the Champions League's historical assist list, Bruno currently ranks fifth. Second only to his Portuguese national team senior Luis Figo, and three former Manchester United teammates Ryan Giggs, Cristiano Ronaldo and David Beckham, these four have assists of 40, 40, 39, 36 are not much ahead of Bruno, and except for Ronaldo, the other three have retired.”

"Five assists in a single game, this also created the best assist record in a single game in the history of the Champions League!"

"This Champions League match day is a festival for superstars. Cristiano Ronaldo, who switched to Juventus this season, performed a hat trick at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, helping Juventus reverse the situation and advance to the quarterfinals; Yossi, who is still playing for Barcelona, ​​also With a performance of 2 goals and 2 assists, Barcelona defeated Lyon 5:1 and advanced to the quarterfinals; Bruno's perfect performance of 1 goal and 5 assists in a single game helped the team sweep Schalke 04 8:0. In Europe, the performance of the Big Three is still superior, but compared to the once peerless duo Melo, Bruno's performance in both the league and the Champions League is undoubtedly better, which directly proves that Bruno is the best in the world. His status as the number one player in football is indeed worthy of his reputation.”

………………

"The Times" reviewed Bruno's five assists one by one and believed that the most beautiful one was his second assist, which was the ball passed to Mbappe. The difficulty was that he had his back to Mbappe's, but the result was that the pass was just right, allowing Mbappe to hit the goal directly. It was very comfortable. It was like showing his magic.

At the same time, the commentary also expressed regret that many Manchester United players, including Kanter, missed good opportunities. Otherwise, Bruno could have more attacks in a single game.

"Throughout this game, Bruno appeared in every corner of the game, which showed his versatility. Whether it is a long pass or a short pass, whether it is dribbling the ball or assisting his teammates, he can do it perfectly. In his role on the pitch, he looks like a perfect player with no flaws.”

"Last weekend, Manchester United lost to Arsenal away from home, ending their 69-match unbeaten streak in the Premier League. Bruno missed that game due to injury, and everyone was wondering if Arsenal could have beaten Manchester United if Bruno hadn't been absent. And how long would Manchester United's unbeaten streak last? Some people even joked that only injuries and suspensions could prevent Bruno's team from winning. For example, three years ago, Atletico Madrid eliminated Udinese because of Bruno's accumulated yellow card suspension. Today, Arsenal also ended Manchester United's 69-match unbeaten streak by taking advantage of Bruno's absence due to injury."

"And last night, Bruno made the best annotation for those speculations with his outstanding performance. In a single game, he scored 1 goal and 5 assists, and created 6 goals alone. Whether it was Atletico Madrid in the past or Arsenal now, they could never defeat such a powerful Bruno!"

………………

German media "Kicker" reported the analysis of Schalke 04 coach Tedesco at the post-match press conference.

The Schalke 04 coach lost the game, especially such a tragic defeat, and was obviously very lonely, but he believed that in the first ten minutes of the game, Schalke 04 played very well and took control of the situation.

"At that time, we were sure that we had controlled the situation, and we even felt that we were only one step away from scoring. As long as we worked harder, we could break Manchester United's goal."

"Bruno's outstanding performance completely changed the game. He gave us almost no breathing space. After the first goal, the situation of the whole game took a sharp turn for the worse, and we lacked experience in dealing with such a situation."

"In our team, almost everyone has not experienced enough training, which makes us unable to get rid of the adverse situation in the predicament."

Tedesco believes that Bruno's performance is crucial, because the previous few goals were too fast and too sudden, so fast that it was suffocating, and there was no enough reaction time.

"It felt like in the blink of an eye, we were three goals behind."

The Schalke 04 coach gave Bruno and Manchester United a high evaluation, believing that this team is the team with the best hope of competing for the Champions League this season, but in the view of the German media, Tedesco's on-the-spot command is also very problematic.

………………

While affirming Bruno and Manchester United's performance, "Kicker" also pointed out that Schalke 04, coached by Tedesco, has suffered four major defeats recently, including a 0:3 away defeat to Mainz on February 23, a 0:4 home defeat to Düsseldorf on March 2, and a 2:4 away defeat to Werder Bremen on March 8. It's just that the loss to Manchester United tonight was more shocking.

Germany's "Bild" also reported this bloody massacre on the front page, and believed that Bruno had completely played his strength level as the world's number one football player in this game.

The Germans believe that Manchester United's tactics in this game completely suppressed Schalke 04, especially in the midfield, but at the same time, they played their own speed on the offensive end, and the speed of attack and defense conversion was very fast.

"Bruno's performance is indeed amazing, one goal and five assists. This game will become one of the most proud games in his career, but at the same time, it cannot be denied that Bruno's outstanding performance is based on the overall advantage of the team."

Compared with other countries' media who are more inclined to individual performance, the German media obviously pays more attention to the overall role of the team.

………………

Spain's performance in the Champions League this season is not good. Valencia stopped in the group stage, and the two Madrid giants were eliminated in the round of 16. Among them, Atletico Madrid won 2:0 in the first leg and was reversed by Ronaldo's hat trick.

And Real Madrid's elimination is even more shameful. They defeated Ajax 2:1 away in the first leg, and were slaughtered 4:1 by Jiafu at home, thus being eliminated with a total score of 3:5.

Only Barcelona won 5:1 in the second leg after a goalless draw with the opponent in the first leg.

Although the performance of La Liga teams is poor and it is very likely that the Premier League will take away their position as the top league after the end of this season, the Spanish media is still very concerned about the Champions League, especially Manchester United and Bruno.

After the Red Devils beat Schalke 04 by eight goals, the Spanish media sang praises.

Bruno became the player most praised by the Spanish media. Media supporting Real Madrid, such as Marca and AS, regretted the transfer last summer, because when Ronaldo left the team, Bruno, who they hoped to introduce, failed to come again as expected.

Yes, although Florentino repeatedly stated in front of the media that Bruno was the target of Real Madrid's signings, Real Madrid fans knew that the signings had failed again.

Watching Bruno's outstanding performance in the Champions League, Real Madrid fans also felt quite disappointed: such a good player, why can't he play for the great Real Madrid?

The Catalan media is also reflecting on this. Both Mundo Deportivo and Diario Sport have once again included Bruno's transfer on the team's recruitment list, believing that Bruno, who can play in any position in the frontcourt, is definitely the most suitable recruitment for Barcelona. The only problem is his price.

"It is obvious that with Bruno's current performance, Manchester United will never let him leave easily!"

Portugal's "Morning Post", France's "L'Equipe"... all major European mainstream media have given overwhelming praise to Bruno and Manchester United's performance, and these media reports have been quickly forwarded to all parts of the world.
