Chapter 860: Heaven's Favored One (Happy New Year)

In China, CCTV Sports Channel also broadcast the game live, and the excited voice of famous host He Wei rang in the ears of fans: "Harry Kane, his bracelet helped Manchester United lead Paris 2-0 in the first half Saint-Germain, Manchester United now only needs one goal to complete the reversal, eliminating the first leg and winning 4:1 at home, the arrogant Paris Saint-Germain! ”

"The past two weeks have been a very difficult time for both Manchester United players and Manchester United fans."

"As a result of his crushing defeat at Princes Park Stadium in the first leg and the subsequent two consecutive draws against Chelsea and Crystal Palace in the league, Manchester United has fallen into a rare low in recent years. The Champions League is on the verge of being eliminated, and the league is also standing on the verge of being eliminated. Manchester City's desperate situation is repeated, whether it is Britain, the entire Europe, or even the whole world: Manchester United is finished! The team who swept across Britain, suppressed the whole Europe, was invincible and defeated, and won countless championships. Manchester United is finished! Many people are saying that Paris Saint-Germain defeated Manchester United at home, marking the end of an era and an invincible era that belongs to Manchester United!”

"But at a critical moment, the Manchester United completed its self-salvation. Last weekend's Manchester City Derby, at the Etihad Stadium, the Manchester United announced to the world on the territory of the mortal enemy, stepping on the bodies of the mortal enemy, and the sky of the Premier League is still It's red! ”

"Although I have won a 6-point victory by defeating my mortal enemy in the derby game, and then stabilized my advantage in the Premier League by defeating West Ham United, which has been in full swing recently, before this game, if anyone says Manchester United can be considered a lunatic if he can make a 2-0 halftime Paris Saint-Germain and have the chance to turn the tables. "

"However, when the half-time game passed, this situation was happening. Paris Saint-Germain was really facing the hidden danger of being eliminated!"

"Coach Mourinho and Manchester United showed everyone their magic, especially the second goal. The whole goal process is like the art of offense, speed, breakthrough, wonderful passing coordination, shooting, resuming shots, the whole goal, the whole goal The goal process did not give the Paris Saint-Germain any chance! ”

He Wei was emotional. This is not only because he has certain support and favor for Manchester United and Mourinho, but also because as a commentator, facing such a wonderful goal and a shocking reversal that may be revealed, he will Excited from the heart.

Why is the game of a big reversal praised and remembered for a long time? This is because people are born with the expectation of "perseverance and counterattack in desperate situations", and everyone has this kind of heroic dream of counterattack.

……………………

Mourinho was in high spirits in the home team locker room at Millennium Stadium and praised every player. Especially De Gea, who has a world-class save and strives to keep Manchester United's goalkeeper, was praised by Mourinho.

"It's done well! Very good!" Mourinho said.

In Mourinho's view, de Gea's key tricks are worth a thousand gold.

After all, if Martial scored that goal, Manchester United would be wiped out by their opponents' advantage in scoring away goals, and Manchester United would need to score two more goals to achieve a reversal.

After praising the players, Mourinho continued to give them blood: "Listen to the cheers in the stands and look at the lost and incredible expressions of the Paris Saint-Germain people, they were stunned by our beatings."

"We will continue to play like this in the second half!"

"Coach, do we have a chance to turn the tables?" Mbappe shouted excitedly.

Everyone was also stimulated by this problem, and they looked at their head coach excitedly.

This is a very simple arithmetic problem. Although they can draw conclusions themselves, they still want to get answers from the head coach. It is like such a simple question. If you get answers from the person's mouth, you will have Different magic powers are the same.

"Yes, according to the score, we only need one goal to turn the tables." Mourinho gave a positive answer.

There was cheers in the locker room.

"But, I hope you don't think about turning the tables, don't think about so much." Mourinho said with a serious expression, "The reason why we played so well in the first half was because we didn't think about so much, and we didn't think about it. So many distracting thoughts!”

"What we have to do now is to do the same as in the first half, don't think so much and be yourself. As for the result, you must believe that those who help themselves will help you!"

Some people listened to it, while others were still immersed in joy and were still thinking about possible turnaround.

Mourinho has no good idea about this. Humans are animals that can think and have ideas. At this time, it is impossible not to think about a comeback. Mourinho can only hope that this will not do anything to the players. The competition status and psychological impact have a bad effect.

……………………

In the visiting team's locker room, the atmosphere was a bit dull.

"Today is really weird," said Paris Saint-Germain centre-back Kimpenbe. "No matter how we don't shoot, they scored just by shooting."

"Yeah, yeah, Anthony hit the door frame twice, and this is too bad luck."

The players of Paris Saint-Germain were talking about it. What they were confused about was not Manchester United's two goals, but the opponent's two goals were very exciting. At most, they were unhappy, but they had nothing to say. What made them most depressed was their own. Luck is too bad!

In the first half of the game, the performance of the Paris Saint-Germain players was definitely not bad. They had a slightly better ball possession rate than Manchester United, reaching 55%, and had eight shots, one more than Manchester United.

But the result was that Paris Saint-Germain did not score a single goal, only hitting the goal frame twice; while Manchester United scored two goals with two shots on target.

"Okay, don't think about the first half." Pochettino clapped his hands, "Although our luck was not very good in the first half, it also shows that we have no problems, but just a little bit worse luck, so in the second half, as long as our luck is a little better, scoring is not a problem, and winning is not a problem."

Pochettino's words are correct. With the strength and status of Paris Saint-Germain, as long as their luck is not so bad, they are confident in scoring and winning.

However, there is an idea that lingers in the minds of the Paris Saint-Germain players: What if there is no change in the second half of the game, and it is still so weird?

Don't underestimate this psychological impact. If Paris Saint-Germain had one or two more goals that were sure to be scored in the second half, but failed because of luck, the psychological pressure and confusion of the players would only become stronger.

………………

Pochettino did not adjust the team's lineup. As he said, the team fell behind 0:2 in the first half, not because of their own problems, but because of bad luck.

Martial's two shots, if he had a little better luck, at least one would have been scored, and the situation would have been completely different.

No mistakes, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!

But despite the lack of goals, the performance of Paris Saint-Germain players was actually very good, so there was nothing to adjust.

Not only did the lineup not need to be adjusted, but there was nothing to change in tactics. Paris Saint-Germain's eight shots showed everything, and there was no problem with the team.

"Don't think too much. No matter how bad your luck is, you can't hit the goal frame three times. Come on in the second half!" Before leaving the locker room, Pochettino comforted the somewhat depressed Martial.

As a former European Golden Boy Award winner, Martial has always performed well after joining Paris Saint-Germain, although he no longer has the amazing performance he won the European Golden Boy Award in the season, and was once the top star of Paris Saint-Germain.

Although Neymar came to Paris at a record high price of 220 million euros, Martial's glory in the team was snatched away, making Martial no longer the top star of Paris Saint-Germain, but in Paris Saint-Germain, Martial still has a pivotal position and influence, and is also a player that Pochettino relies on very much.

Of course, what Pochettino values ​​most is that Martial played for Manchester United for a year. Although he only played for Mourinho for two months, he is very familiar with the playing style of Manchester United and can become his trump card to defeat Manchester United and end the Red Devils myth.

And Martial did not live up to Pochettino's expectations. His hat trick at home helped Paris Saint-Germain win 4:1 at home, almost killing the two-round knockout match and pushing Manchester United to the brink of despair.

Due to Manchester United's outstanding performance in the first half, Paris Saint-Germain encountered some troubles. Pochettino hopes that Martial can once again become the one who decides the outcome.

Martial nodded sullenly. He was a little depressed, but the coach was right. Hitting the door frame twice in a game is the most unfortunate thing, and it won't be worse.

………………

The second half of the game started soon, and the two sides continued to fight fiercely on the field.

In the 51st minute of the game, Paris Saint-Germain won a penalty. Maguire kicked Icardi over in the penalty area. The referee reviewed and confirmed the penalty. Martial took the penalty, and the ball was saved by Manchester United goalkeeper De Gea and hit the outside of the post: Bang!

Martial's expression froze, and the expressions of other Paris Saint-Germain players also froze. Even the commentator was stunned and shouted "Sell cakes"!

"Sell cakes! It's the door frame again! Martial has hit the door frame three times today!" Andy Gray shook his head and shouted.

Martin Taylor also shook his head repeatedly and said in disbelief: "Martial's luck today is simply too bad. Maybe Martial can buy a million-dollar jackpot after the game. His chance of winning will be higher than hitting the door frame three times in a row in a game, especially one of them is a penalty kick!"

At this time of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, the author wishes all book friends good health and good luck in the new year! Good luck in the Year of the Snake! Make a fortune every day!!!
