From the Man Behind the Football King to the Football King

Chapter 800 There Can only Be One Winner

After the midfield and backcourt stabilized, the players in the frontcourt began to get opportunities.

First, Bruno made a cross from the right, allowing Rashford to head the ball in front of the back goal, but it was saved by Lopez.

Then Bruno made a straight pass from the left rib, allowing Mbappe to enter the penalty area and volley wide.

In the 28th minute, Bruno had a chance to face Bonucci alone with the ball and tried to break through one-on-one. As a result, when he passed the ball, he was tripped directly to the ground by the experienced Bonucci.

Markel ran up quickly and showed Bonucci a yellow card.

The captain of Juventus did not argue, but took the initiative to reach out to Bruno who was lying on the ground, pulled him up, patted his shoulder, and quickly retreated.

Manchester United then sent a free kick from Bruno, and Van Dijk headed the ball, but failed to hit the right position and was high.

Time soon entered the 30th minute, and Manchester United was still behind Juventus.

After about ten minutes of rest, Juventus launched another fierce attack.

Ronaldo still became the most threatening Juventus player on the court, and his performance was also quite brilliant, but it seemed that he was always a little short of scoring. Almost no one could really enter the penalty area, and most of them were long shots from the periphery, and they were long shots from more than 20 meters away.

It is not difficult to see how solid Manchester United's defense is.

………………

Juventus's offensive surged, but Bruno also felt that Juventus's defense line was gradually pressing forward, which gave Bruno an opportunity.

Ronaldo tried to pass with his heel and was tripped by Fred.

The referee ran over and gave Fred a yellow card warning, and at the same time gave Juventus another free kick opportunity in the frontcourt.

Ronaldo took the penalty himself, and Bruno went back to set up a human wall. He was face to face with Ronaldo again, and he could feel the fierce fighting spirit projected in the eyes of the old captain of the Portuguese national team when he looked at him.

He looked full of fighting spirit, and the whole person was extremely excited, as if he was saying: Today, here, there can only be one winner, and that is me!

And the same sentence is exactly what Bruno wanted to say to him.

C Ronaldo hung his hands at his side, clenched his fists, and spread his legs. The whole person seemed like a god, standing in front of the human wall.

With the referee's whistle, C Ronaldo quickly jumped out and kicked the ball quickly.

There was only a bang at the scene, and the ball quickly flew out from C Ronaldo's feet, drew an arc, bypassed the human wall, and quickly fell into the goal behind him.

But Manchester United's goalkeeper De Gea was well prepared. After all, C Ronaldo's elevator ball is famous. Although the 35-year-old C Ronaldo has passed the peak of his career and has not scored many free kicks in recent years, any goalkeeper dare not slack off or be careless when facing C Ronaldo.

When setting up the wall just now, De Gea had already considered all the angles that Ronaldo might shoot at, so he reacted quickly and flew over the crossbar. Although it gave Juventus a corner kick, the free kick did not go in.

Instantly, all Manchester United players breathed a sigh of relief.

………………

Manchester United quickly reorganized their defense, this time it was the defense of the corner kick.

Because they lost the corner kick just now, Manchester United took it very seriously this time.

Juventus also invested in troops, Bonucci and De Ligt all came up.

Bruno was still left in the front court waiting for an opportunity to counterattack, but he did not dare to be careless at all, because he did not know when his teammates would pass the ball in his direction, and all he could do was to concentrate on preparing.

Manchester United controlled the ball, and Juventus still kept pressing in the middle line, making it difficult for Manchester United to send the ball to the front court.

As soon as Cancelo got the ball, he was immediately disturbed by Bernardeschi. Just when he was thinking about passing it back to his teammates on the back line, he suddenly saw Bruno running back from the front and raising his right hand to ask for the ball. Moreover, his running route was just out of step with Bernardeschi's pressing, so he could pass it out.

Cancelo certainly didn't hesitate any more, and immediately passed the ball to Bruno's feet.

Stopping the ball and turning around, Bruno seemed to have expected that there was no defensive player behind him.

As soon as he turned around, Bruno immediately rushed forward with the ball.

Bentancur, who was closest to him, ran over first, and behind him was Sandro, the left back.

Bruno didn't wait for Bentancur to get close, and quickly passed the ball horizontally to Fred's feet, and immediately sprinted forward at the fastest speed.

As soon as Fred stopped the ball, he immediately saw Bruno sprinting quickly, and felt Bentancur approaching quickly. He immediately passed the ball over the top and sent the ball directly to the front, letting Bruno chase.

………………

"Manchester United launched another attack from the right."

"Bruno is competing with Sandro in speed."

"Bruno is very fast and caught up with Sandro. The two chased the ball at the same time."

……

Although Bruno had the advantage in speed and more physical strength, there was still a distance between the two of them. Sandro was obviously a very determined player. He chased desperately and even had a secret pulling action in his hand.

But Bruno could no longer care about these. His only thought now was to catch up with the ball.

With his excellent predictive ability, he can judge the trajectory and landing point of the ball, and he has enough understanding of his opponent Sandro. If it was Sandro who just joined Juventus five years ago, he might not be able to compete with the opponent in speed, but Bruno felt that he could catch up with Sandro, who was already 30 years old.

But Sandro was right beside him, how could he stop the ball after catching up?

Sandro was right beside him, if Bruno stopped at his feet, he would be directly entangled by Sandro next.

So, he decided to stop the ball behind him, at least there was no defensive player behind him at this time, giving him more room for error.

The whole idea was long to say, but in fact it was in an instant, Bruno reacted, judging the trajectory and landing point of the ball, kicking out his right foot first, facing the falling football, and subconsciously controlling the angle of his sole and calf.

Soon, Bruno felt the weight of the ball from the sole of his foot. The ball hit Bruno's sole while falling, changed direction, passed the left side of Bruno's shoulder, and fell between him and Sandro.

………………

This sudden change made Sandro, who was the first to bear the brunt, completely confused.

Bruno did not give him enough time to react. After stopping the ball, Bruno quickly stopped and changed direction.

Sandro also reacted quickly, changing from the original sprint to an emergency stop. While turning and changing direction, he also reached out to pull Bruno, and he couldn't let him catch up with the ball anyway.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his hand reached out, Bruno suddenly swung out his right hand with force, and slapped his hand directly with a snap, slapping his entire left hand out.

At this time, Sandro's feet suddenly slipped again, and the whole person lost his balance and fell on the grass. He watched Bruno catch up with the ball, and with a right foot, he drove into the penalty area with the ball.

"Nice stop!"

"On Manchester United's right, Bruno made a very nice stop and got rid of Sandro!"

"Let's see how he will handle it this time..."

"Facing Bonucci, Bruno planned to pass again, but he didn't shake off and passed the ball back to the front of the penalty area..."

"Harry Kane followed and shot directly... The angle was too straight, and goalkeeper Lopez blocked the ball..."

"The ball didn't fly far, it was still in the penalty area..."

"Bruno..."

……

………………

When the ball blocked by Lopez flew towards him, Bruno was suddenly stunned.

It was too sudden!

He originally thought that Harry Kane could score, but he didn't expect Lopez to save it, and the ball actually flew towards him.

At that moment, Bruno's mind suddenly went blank, and he just subconsciously kicked the ball to stop it.

The flying force of the football was not strong, and Bruno stopped in front of him. He felt that the air around him seemed to be condensed, and everyone's movements became very slow.

Bruno could see Bonucci turning around. He had just pounced on Harry Kane, and now he reacted and turned around to pounce on him, but he was really slow.

Lopez, who was lying on the ground, was shouting something, and his hands slowly retracted. He should be trying to get up.

And De Ligt, who had been staying in the middle, was about to slide.

As for Sandro behind him, he had just gotten up from the ground at this time. He slipped and fell just now, and it should be serious.

In front of the Juventus coaching bench, Sarri roared with a ferocious face, as if to say, stop him!

Mourinho on the sidelines opened his eyes wide, obviously shocked, but his mouth shape should be shouting loudly: Shoot!

All of this rushed into Bruno's mind at that moment, and then he suddenly woke up and quickly kicked his right foot at the ball in front of him.

………………

Bonucci turned around quickly, De Ligt slid over, and Lopez struggled to stand up...

But with a "bang", Bruno's right foot kicked the football in front of him. The ball flew out from the ground like a flash of lightning and directly hit the goal that was almost unguarded.

When he kicked that kick, Bruno was 100% sure that the ball went in.

He didn't know how many times he had kicked such a ball in the past few years. He practiced repeatedly almost every day. When he kicked this kick, he could already judge the moment when the ball entered the net.

The shot ball seemed to be an extension of his whole person. The feeling was so strong that he didn't need to hear the referee's whistle at all. The whole person had already roared and ran out with all his strength.

Behind him, the referee finally blew the whistle to indicate that the goal was valid!

Seeing Bruno score, Ronaldo covered his face with both hands with a painful expression.
