Chapter 1081
"Players from both sides are on the field." Zhan Jun glanced quickly and then stood up and looked through the glass window. "Real Madrid has substituted, but Manchester United has not adjusted."

Zhang Lu: "Gareth Bale replaced Isco. This is for sure. Manchester United has not made any adjustments. Sun Wu should be very satisfied with the performance of the starters."

"That's true. Almost every Manchester United player has shown their best form." Zhan Jun nodded in agreement, "Although Griezmann missed the penalty kick, overall he played well."

"Di!"

"The second half of this Champions League final has begun. Let us see whether Real Madrid will stage a comeback or Manchester United will win the Treble!"

From the first second of the first half, Manchester United caught Real Madrid by surprise with a crazy high press.

In the second half, Manchester United put on a defensive stance from the first second. After the kick-off, other players except Harry Kane and Salah didn't even cross the halfway line.

"This is Best." Mourinho said with a smile: "Everything he does is for victory, for the championship."

Mortensen shrugged: "If you have enough championships, you are eligible to consider other things. Why are so many superstars yearning for the Bernabeu? It's not because Real Madrid has won so many Champions League titles!"

"boom!"

A large piece of turf was lifted and hit the face of Modric who fell to the ground. The Croatian protested angrily to the referee not far away.

Seeing Sun Wu shrugging his shoulders and pretending to be innocent, the Real Madrid fans in the stands booed. Although the referee did not give the card, he gave Sun Wu a verbal warning.

Sun Wu sincerely accepted the warning and pulled Modric up friendly. Although Real Madrid's overall state is not good today and morale is low, the Croatian midfielder is the only exception.

In the case of Manchester United's overall recovery of defense, it is actually difficult for Real Madrid to tear through Manchester United's defense, but Modric used his dribbling to create two opportunities abruptly.

In the 48th minute, Modric made a cross pass to Marcelo in the left midfielder, but suddenly changed direction and accelerated to force a breakthrough between Salah and Fletcher, and then sent a long-range ball from the outside of his right foot.

Gareth Bale cut in wide to attract the attention of Lucas and Van Dijk, but the Welsh winger sent a reverse pass, Carvajal delivered a quality cross and Benzema headed in. slightly higher.

In the 53rd minute, Modric once again broke through the encirclement of Kanter and Pavard, and then grabbed Fletcher's defense before he tiptoed a pass. Ronaldo shot from a small angle and De Gea came out with one hand. Gareth Bell head The ball was missed.

If you only talk about the ability of midfielders to carry the ball, Modric may be the number one in the world. Neither Pogba, Rakitic, Kroos, De Bruyne, or Thiago can compare with him. Don't talk about Sun Wu...

He can get rid of in a small space, and he has a small pace with the ball, quick acceleration, and strong confrontation ability, making it difficult for defensive players to find opportunities to attack.

Therefore, Sun Wu focused on this old friend. Although he is not strong in frontal defense, he is also the best organizational midfielder in Europe. He has an accurate judgment on the timing of the ball and breakthrough that Modric may choose, and Sun Wu has a lot of small moves in his hands, and if he is shaken away, he will decisively foul.

In just 3 minutes, Modric was intercepted by Sun Wu once and brought down by Sun Wu twice, and Real Madrid's offensive immediately came to a standstill.

Kroos's performance is quite satisfactory but there are no bright spots. It is difficult for Gareth Bale to make a difference when there is not much space. After all, his advantage lies in speed, and getting rid of people in a small space is not his strong point.

But even so, Manchester United's defense is under a lot of pressure. Carvajal and Marcelo have a very large forward pressure, Benzema and Ronaldo frequently switch positions, and Gareth Bale's height and jumping ability can also play a role. Strong containment effect, coupled with the strong long-range shooting ability of Kroos and Modric on the periphery.

In the 56th minute, Benzema switched positions to the left and cooperated with Kroos and Marcelo in a row. Marcelo forced an inward cut and was destroyed by Kanter. Benzema sent a 45-degree cross.

"Marcelo... Benzema cross!"

"Bell... got the point, headed the ball!"

"Danger!" Zhan Jun shouted anxiously: "Oh, De Gea is attacking!"

Thunderous applause and huge sighs sounded in the stands at the same time, and Gareth Bale forced Lucas to nod the ball behind him.

The ball passed Van Dijk, Alderweireld and Ronaldo took off at the same time, the Portuguese's jumping ability was fully revealed at this moment, he jumped more than a head higher than Alderweireld.

But De Gea gave up the goal at a critical moment. Although it was too late to confiscate the ball, a slight flick of his finger made the ball fly over Ronaldo's head. The Portuguese shook his head and missed it.

Seeing this scene, Sun Wuxuan finally let go of his heart. He crossed his hips and thought for two seconds before running towards Salah.

"Although Gareth Bale has already played, Real Madrid's threatening offensive mainly comes from the left." Mourinho commented: "Benzema, Ronaldo, Kroos, Marcelo and even Modric They are all concentrated on the left or left midfield. If Manchester United does not make adjustments ... it will be difficult to carry it."

"Especially the switch between Benzema and Ronaldo." Mortensen nodded in agreement, "The attack just now is a typical one. In fact, Ronaldo was active on the left side until Benzema sent a cross. Ronaldo suddenly accelerated into the penalty area and tried to take advantage of Bale's header to get a shot."

"It depends on how Manchester United adjusts now..." Mourinho paused and laughed, "I guess...Best will not be reconciled to this situation."

Before the words fell, Real Madrid organized another offensive on the left. Marcelo threw a sideline ball. Kroos took the ball and was hit hard by Kanter. As a result, the ball fell crookedly to the feet of Ronaldo on the left rib.

"C Ronaldo..." The Spanish commentator became excited, cutting in from this position is Ronaldo's famous stunt.

At this moment, Fletcher, Alderweireld, and Sun Wu rushed forward from all directions at the same time. All Manchester United players knew how dangerous Ronaldo was in this position.

But Ronaldo didn't shoot. He showed the calmness and brains of a world-class superstar. After making an inward cut, Ronaldo suddenly smashed the ball with his right foot and poked the toe of his left foot.

"Through...too bad!" Zhang Lu blurted out, "Marcelo...should not be offside!"

When everyone's attention was focused on Ronaldo, Marcelo jumped out from behind Pavard and received the through ball. He made a strong horizontal pump and then sent an inverted triangle pass.

After sending the through pass, Ronaldo appeared in the penalty area knowingly. He raised his left foot and volleyed the ball without stopping!
"C Ronaldo... shoot!"

"boom!"

There was a clear sound of the ball in the middle of the post, and Zidane on the sidelines jumped up in disappointment. This was Real Madrid's closest chance to score in this game, but Ronaldo's shot unluckily hit the far post.

But soon, Zidane couldn't care less about regret. He roared and pointed at Salah, wishing he could jump into the field and make a flying shovel.

After hearing a familiar voice, De Gea, who was hugging the ball, immediately got up and threw the ball to the left without looking at the surrounding situation.

The ball flew over the heads of Ronaldo, Benzema, and Kroos. Salah, who was sprinting at high speed, made a header from the sideline, and overtook Modric who had already sensed the danger!
"Manchester United's counterattack is coming!"

"It's Salah again, it's Salah again!"
