Chapter 752: Don’t Be Arrogant When You Win

Sometimes, a wonderful goal, a beautiful tackle, and a solid defense can ignite the morale and passion of the players on the court, especially for a passionate team like Manchester United.

Bruno's wonderful one-on-three goal greatly boosted Manchester United's morale and passion. After a crazy celebration, everyone began to play more actively and continued to launch a counterattack against Liverpool.

First, Bruno broke through the middle and saw an opportunity, and suddenly shot directly from the outside of the penalty area.

This shot was so fast, urgent and sudden that all Liverpool fans broke out in a cold sweat.

Alisson reacted quickly and quickly saved the ball, which barely resolved a crisis.

But soon, Manchester United took a corner kick, and Maguire headed the ball ten meters in front of the goal, which was a little higher.

Two consecutive attacks created threats, and Manchester United continued to launch an offensive.

Harry Kane pulled away the defender for Bruno, and Gundogan quickly sent an overhead pass from the right side of the center. Bruno quickly cut in from the center to the right side of the penalty spot and shot directly with his right foot before the Liverpool players arrived.

Alisson flew to save the ball again, once again defusing Bruno's shot that was sure to win and saving Liverpool's goal.

Corner kick!

………………

Bruno climbed up from the grass in the penalty area and panted to shake off the grass on his body.

At this time, several high-point players of Manchester United came up, Maguire, Van Dijk, Luke Shaw, Harry Kane, Rashford...

Gundogan ambushed outside the penalty area, ready to rush in at any time and perform a lore.

Cancelo ran to the corner area, set up the football, stepped on the grass behind the football, and then slowly retreated.

Bruno came to the periphery of the penalty area and stood side by side with Gundogan. He felt that he was in a very excited state now, as if he had endless energy. He was eager to score again.

With the whistle of the referee Atkinson, all the players inside and outside the penalty area moved immediately.

Gundogan quickly shook off the players defending him and rushed to the front point of the goal.

Harry Kane and other high-point players also pressed the middle and front points together. Maguire and Van Dijk and others also moved quickly, interfering with the defense of Liverpool players.

The entire penalty area was immediately in chaos.

Cancelo quickly took a corner kick, but it did not appear at the front point as everyone expected, nor did it fall in the middle, but to the back point.

"Danger!" Henderson was the first to react and shouted.

But when the Liverpool captain turned around, he suddenly found that Bruno, who was originally blocked behind him, was gone.

In an instant, he had a very ominous premonition.

In this kind of corner attack and defense, missing a player is the easiest way to lose a goal.

………………

Liverpool's penalty area was in chaos, and Henderson had no way to find where Bruno had gone.

Only Bruno himself knew it very well. He deliberately retreated to the left side of the front of the penalty area, and then suddenly rushed into the penalty area.

Robertson was stationed at the back point of Liverpool. When he saw the ball flying towards him, he wanted to clear it immediately. Unexpectedly, as soon as the thought came up, he felt a sudden flash of people in front of him. A Manchester United player suddenly rushed in front of him and jumped high before him.

Robertson was only 1.78 meters tall, originally 5 centimeters shorter than Bruno. At this moment, Bruno rushed up quickly from the back. After a run-up, he jumped up with all his strength. The height made Robertson even forget to jump. He just looked up and looked at Bruno like a god.

So high!

He jumped so high!

After Bruno predicted the ball's landing point and trajectory, combined with his own jumping ability, he was confident enough to grab the landing point.

With the help of a run-up of more than ten meters, he jumped with all his strength, controlling his whole body, and leaning his legs and head as far back as possible, as if he had turned into a C-shape.

At this moment, he was extremely sober. When the ball came in front of him, he controlled his core abdominal muscles, stretched his head and legs as far forward as possible, and the upward push, all the strength of his body, was transmitted to his head through the core muscles, and then through his forehead, hit the flying ball.

………………

Heading the ball seems to be painful, but it is not, because the ball is already falling.

And Bruno is like a high-altitude bomber. It is better to say that he smashes it than to say that he hits it. The football was smashed into Liverpool's goal by him!

Alisson didn't even have time to react to the close header. He just instinctively stretched out his right hand to stop it, but the ball still hit the left post and hit Liverpool's goal!

"GOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Header! Bruno used a corner kick and headed the ball from close range to score a reversal goal for Manchester United!"

After Bruno landed, he clenched his fists and raised them high above his head, roaring to the sky again, venting his inner excitement. This feeling is so cool and exciting!

Especially when he jumped high, he really felt like he was looking down from a high place, overlooking all living things.

And when he noticed Robertson's stunned eyes and saw the shock of the Liverpool players around him who almost dropped their jaws, he really had the urge to cheer crazily.

But before he could shout, he was surrounded by his Manchester United teammates.

"So handsome!"

"Wow, your header is so handsome, so cool!"

"I didn't expect you to jump so high!"

…

………………

"It is indeed a quite surprising goal. Not only the players of Liverpool, I am afraid that even the players of Manchester United are also surprised."

"It's not that Bruno has never scored a header, but most of his headers before were far less surprising than this one. Robertson was stunned beside him, as if he could see a god descending to earth. feeling.”

"Bruno's header should be a response to Salah's header just now. The competition between these two young players seems to be bound to become a highlight of the Premier League in the future."

Salah was also very shocked because he did not expect Bruno to respond to him in this way.

Salah scored a wonderful header in this game, but less than forty minutes had passed. Bruno also scored a header that was even more wonderful than Salah's. This made the Egyptians not Lenovo?

………………

The referee Martin Atkinson finally blew the whistle, and every Manchester United player slumped down on the turf of the Millennium Stadium.

More than 70,000 Manchester United fans at the Millennium Stadium were singing and dancing, and they were carried away with joy.

The red scoreboard showed the final score of the game, 2:1. Manchester United relied on Bruno's brace to reverse the Red Devils' Liverpool at the Millennium Stadium. This made more than 70,000 Manchester United fans cheer happily, all shouting Bruno's name.

Throughout the second half, Liverpool almost dominated the game and launched an almost crazy offensive against Manchester United's defense. Mourinho adjusted the defensive posture for three years and almost collapsed several times, but in the end Manchester United held on to the final score and reversed Liverpool at home.

Liverpool's 17-game winning streak came to an abrupt end when it was ended by Manchester United.

After bowing to the fans to thank him, Bruno turned around and slowly walked towards the players' tunnel.

Premier League games are too stressful, too fierce, and too intense. In the final stage of the game, he really couldn't bear it and relied entirely on gritting his teeth to support himself.

He believes not only in himself, but also in the other players on the team.

Liverpool's offense was very threatening and Manchester United's defense was under great pressure. But in the end, Manchester United gritted its teeth and endured, showing the team's amazing resilience.

Among them, the three midfielders composed of Bruno, Gundo and Kanter are indispensable. They are like an airtight barrier in front of the defense, guarding the front of the penalty area unbreakably.

It can be said that Liverpool had the initiative and the advantage in the whole game, but Manchester United's several sharp counterattacks made Liverpool very painful, especially Bruno's counterattack goal in the first half and the subsequent Manchester United came with a wave of attacks.

That was Manchester United's only high performance in the game, but it resulted in two goals and reversed Liverpool.

………………

"What's the matter?" Kanter came over from behind, saw Bruno looking a little unhappy, and asked.

"Nothing." Bruno shook his head.

"I see that you are not satisfied with the game." Kanter asked.

Bruno nodded and said: "I had a chance to score a hat trick in the second half, but I missed those two opportunities. Even if I could only catch one of them, that would be great."

After saying that, Bruno sighed again, obviously feeling regretful. This made Kanter both funny and angry, but at the same time admired.

It's funny because Bruno's two opportunities were not considered very good opportunities. At best, they could only be regarded as 50-50 chances. Both catching and missing were within a reasonable range and were nothing at all.

He was angry because he felt that his friend's requirements for him were too high, so high that he, as a friend, felt a little ashamed of himself.

Scored twice and single-handedly directed Manchester United's comeback against Liverpool. Isn't this satisfying? Still regretting missing the hat trick?

How can other people live like this?

As for admiration, it's because Kanter feels that Bruno's ambition is indeed high and he has high demands on himself.

With his current performance, any other player would probably have to celebrate, but he is regretting the missed opportunity, which shows how angry he is.

Perhaps, this is the reason why he can grow into the number one football player in the world!
