Chapter 1029 The Flag of Paris (add 1 update for the Hojo Clan)
Emery has been depressed recently.

Emery has been under intense pressure since Paris lost their last Champions League game 3-5 to Manchester United.Although Paris has achieved great victories in the next few domestic league games and is far ahead in the league standings, for the Paris management, such results are not enough.They have invested huge sums of money not just to excel in the league but to do well in the Champions League.

Because of the tragic 3-5 defeat in the previous game, Emery was interviewed several times by the club's top management. They hoped that Paris could create a miracle in the second round of the game and kill Manchester United in one fell swoop to advance to the quarter-finals. This is the minimum requirement of the Paris top management!
In fact, with the lineup configuration in Paris, in today's international football, it can definitely be ranked in the top eight. Emery firmly believes in this.

But who would have thought that just after qualifying from the group stage, the first opponent in the knockout round would be the old enemy Manchester United?
Looking at the current situation in Paris, it is too difficult to overturn Manchester United in the away game.At present, Emery's biggest reliance and variable is the Brazilian Neymar.

However, Marr has been a little unlucky in the recent period. He used fancy moves to pass the opponent's defender in the league, but was kicked off the field by the opponent's defender and was injured on the spot!
Although the offending player was sent off and suspended for five games, Neymar was injured.

According to the doctor's instructions, Neymar was unable to play in this game. Although he has recovered, he has not completely recovered. If the old injury does not heal and the new injury recurs, it may affect Neymar's career.

But Neymar strongly demanded to play in this game, and no one could persuade him. In the end, Emery couldn't hold back him and arranged him to start.

When Parisians come to Manchester, the city they visited last year has a very special feeling for them at this time.The city seemed very peaceful and quiet, and it was not boiling with enthusiasm for the upcoming Champions League match.

And when they entered the field before the game, the Paris players also felt that the Manchester United fans around them were very calm. Although they were full of expectations for the game, they did not express too much hostility towards them, nor were they particularly enthusiastic about the game.

Rabiot curiously said something for Neymar, Neymar shook his head with a serious face: "Maybe these Manchester United fans don't pay attention to us at all. In their hearts, Manchester United has already entered the quarter-finals. This game It’s just going through the motions.”

Neymar guessed right, Manchester United fans really think so.

The away game scored 5 to 3, unless Paris beat Manchester United 3 to 0 at Old Trafford, it would be able to create a miracle and advance, but is it possible?

Everyone thinks it is impossible, even the Paris players feel that there is little hope.

If anyone is said to have the strongest desire to win, then it must be Neymar!
Just 3 minutes into the game, Neymar opened the scoring and scored the first goal of the game!
"Neymar made consecutive extraordinary moves in front of the penalty area. He made the entire Manchester United defense line useless!"

"Coulibaly is definitely a top defender in the Premier League, but in the face of Neymar's dribbling, Coulibaly can't do anything. He can only block Neymar as much as possible and prevent him from moving forward."

"Neymar finds space in the crowd! He shoots a low ball straight into the dead corner and De Gea doesn't react!"

"1 to 0! Paris took the lead at Old Trafford!"

"Paris tied the total score to 4 to 5! They have great hopes for a comeback!"

The Paris fans in the audience were very excited. They shouted Neymar's name loudly, and dedicated all their praise to the hero in their hearts, the team's banner!
Neymar rushed to the net, hugged the ball and ran to the middle circle, without any intention of celebrating.

Wanna celebrate until I score a hat-trick!
Neymar's opening goal silenced the Manchester United fans, and soon, they cheered for their team with a loud noise that overwhelmed Paris.At this time, the Manchester United players on the field were a little ashamed, especially on the defensive end. They didn't expect Paris' offense to start so quickly, so they were caught off guard.

Scholes on the sidelines looked at Kintag: "Captain, we lost the ball, do we need to make any adjustments?"

Kintag shook his head: "No need. The loss was just an accident, and they have realized it. I believe there will be no more problems in the next game."

Sure enough, as Kim Taige thought, as long as Manchester United maintains its own state and strength, the game will be very stable.

Shortly after Neymar's goal, Manchester United also created a series of scoring opportunities.

Because Paris is pressing continuously today, the formation is very high, which gives Manchester United's offensive line many good opportunities.

Because of Lewandowski's injury, Manchester United's trident has become Griezmann, Salah and Mbappé.The three of them cooperated continuously in the frontcourt of Paris to create opportunities.

In this game, although Griezmann has a wide range of running and often connects the frontcourt, Manchester United's real offensive core is De Bruyne.

In this game, De Bruyne also pressed relatively high. Not only did he pass the ball well, but his propulsion ability was also top-notch in the world. Coupled with his accurate shooting, De Bruyne deserved his name as the best midfielder selected by FIFA in 2017.

In the 19th minute of the game, Verratti's pass was intercepted by Kanter's flying tackle and the ball was intercepted.With a sweep from Kanter, the ball was delivered to the right. Kroos faced Rabiot and Draxler's pressing. He paused a little, brought the two closer to him, and then kicked the pass. It was given to De Bruyne who went forward.

De Bruyne took the lead and took the ball towards the penalty area in Paris!

At this time, Manchester United's three forwards also advanced at high speed, each looking for a suitable position.

"Kroos alone attracted the entire midfield line in Paris! He passed the ball to De Bruyne!"

"De Bruyne advanced with the ball! He rushed to the penalty area in Paris! Manchester United's offensive trident was also activated at the same time, ready to respond!"

"The four defensive players in Paris' defense are all in position and ready to defend."

"De Bruyne approached the box, he slowed down. And Salah and Mbappe pulled quickly into the box, ready to receive the ball!"

"Kimpembe, who was defending De Bruyne, hesitated for a moment, and didn't dare to grab it easily. De Bruyne didn't pass the ball, and directly kicked a long shot!"

"The ball went straight to the dead corner! The ball went in!!!"

"After Paris scored the first goal, Manchester United also responded with a brilliant counter-attack to equalize the score!"

"1 to 1! The two teams are back on the same starting line!"
