Football irons are burning

Chapter 367 Emperor Mark Star
The reversal of the Champions League also inspired Manchester United players.

在周末的联赛第35轮，他们又在一球落后的局面下，连进两球2:1主场逆转利物浦，35轮29胜2平4负逼近90分大关。

The rival Chelsea was defeated by Newcastle United 2:1 in the away game, and the lead was reduced to 1 point!
At this moment, Mourinho panicked. At the press conference after the game, he criticized the referee, thinking that the referee took away the victory that belonged to Chelsea.

This is obviously a loss of haste.

It is true that Newcastle won two penalties, but both penalties are actually no problem.

Mourinho's words are naturally too much.

Subsequently, he was severely fined and suspended for three games by the Football Association, which made Chelsea even worse!

This means that in the last three rounds, Mourinho was unable to play and could only direct the team's game from the stands.

This also made Manchester United fans excited. If the league completes a major reversal, then this season will be interesting and worth pondering.

On May 5, the 1th round of the Premier League continued.

Manchester United made great efforts away, defeated Blackburn 1:3, got the 92nd point of the season, and continued to put pressure on Chelsea.

Still, Chelsea didn't make another mistake as they beat Southampton 4-0 at home.

In this way, the 37th round of direct dialogue between the two sides will become the key.

At that time, Manchester United, who are playing at home, will definitely do everything possible to beat Chelsea. If this result is achieved, then Manchester United will still be perfect this season.

But before that, Manchester United have to go to Madrid to participate in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final.

This is also Manchester United's disadvantage. This game is bound to consume a lot of Manchester United's physical energy, while Chelsea is waiting for work, and the home court advantage may be offset.

On May 5, Manchester United challenged Real Madrid away.

The atmosphere of the game was still very enthusiastic, and the Bernabéu stadium was full of seats.

And Queiroz's formation was adjusted again. Beckham started the game and formed a double midfielder with Makelele.

Obviously, the lessons of the first game are vivid.

It is Queiroz's wishful thinking to use double defensive midfielders to contain Li Tie, strangle Manchester United's offense, and then find a way to score, and then eliminate Manchester United with the advantage of away goals.

The double midfielder strategy also means sacrificing some players. This is also a no-brainer. Figo did not start. The Portuguese has decided to transfer to Inter Milan at the end of the season. His trip to Real Madrid was not very successful.

However, after the start of the game, the Real Madrid players discovered that Manchester United was also a defensive formation. Li Tie also returned to the position of the midfielder, forming a three-position midfielder with De Jong and Fletcher. Dong Fangzhuo was at the front. This is a 3-6-1 formation.

Of course, Li Tie's position is flexible, and this formation can be transformed into 3-5-2 or 4-5-1 at any time.

After the start of the game, Real Madrid had no choice but to bite the bullet and attack. First of all, they were one goal behind, and it would definitely not work if they didn't score.

Manchester United put on a defensive posture to lure the opponent to attack.

In the 3rd minute, Ibrahimovic took the ball and took a long shot. The ball bounced off De Jong's leg. Raul just made a supplementary shot, and Li Tie kicked it away.

In the 5th minute, Zidane passed the ball after consecutive breakthroughs, Raul turned and volleyed, and the ball was blocked by Li Tie out of the baseline.

In the 9th minute, after Maicon broke through from the side and cut inside, Li Tie came over and poked the ball away.

In the first 10 minutes, Manchester United's defense was very layered, and Li Tie's role was also very obvious.

Under his organization, the entire defense line seemed to be able to handle it with ease.

In the 14th minute, Raul swung a header in the penalty area. This time it was an accident. The taller Ibrahimovic turned out to be the second striker.

Ibrahimovic grabbed a header and the ball hit the crossbar hard and popped out.

This also made the Real Madrid fans on the scene sigh.

It's a pity that Liang Liang rejected such a good opportunity.

But turning around, Manchester United launched an attack from the backcourt, Li Tie drove over, Dong Fangzhuo took the ball in the frontcourt and used speed to force Lucio, Lucio was a little reckless, and Dong Fangzhuo passed.

Dong Fangzhuo staggered into the penalty area and then volleyed. Iker Casillas had fallen to the ground, but Carvalho kicked sideways. After the ball bounced, it flew into the other side.

0: 1!

Under the passive situation, Manchester United took the lead instead!
Dong Fangzhuo celebrated the goal with an excited somersault. The significance of this goal is naturally great. Now that Manchester United is leading by two goals, if the opponent wants to come back, they must score at least two goals, and Manchester United must not score.

Judging from the current form, it is not easy for Real Madrid to score two goals for Manchester United.

Manchester United fans were also singing and dancing in the stands, very happy.

Coming to the away game, of course it is coming, and I can see a beautiful counterattack goal.

In the box in the stands, Lafayette also had a bad face, and San Dezi next to him had a happy face.

This season, Manchester United not only earned a lot of money from Real Madrid, but also won the game against Manchester United. This is a double victory.

Lafayette suddenly said: "Mr. Wood, are you going to sell this Chinese striker? If you sell it, the price is negotiable."

Lafayette took a fancy to Dong Fangzhuo, young, fast, and strong shooting ability.

After getting it, Real Madrid's striker strength must be stronger.

San Dezi was taken aback, thinking to himself that Dong Fangzhuo came out of Manchester United's youth training, and Manchester United generally would not sell their youth training talents.

However, after thinking about the boss's explanation carefully, he still said: "Dong is not for sale, unless there is enough reason to convince me."

Lafayette secretly rejoiced, it seems that it is a question of money.

"How about 4000 million pounds?" Lafayette said immediately.

San Dezi said: "Your Excellency, Dong is only 19 years old, and he has a bright future."

"Okay, then I will add another 500 million pounds. It can't be higher, otherwise, we won't be able to eat it." Lafayette gritted his teeth and said.

At 4500 million pounds, the price is indeed very attractive.

Real Madrid will definitely make some player adjustments at that time. In this way, the worth of these players can also offset part of it, and Real Madrid will not spend too much cash.

San Dezi smiled triumphantly, and said: "No problem, Dong is yours now, but it has to be kept secret for the time being, and we will discuss the specific details when we come down."

On the field, Real Madrid players began to counterattack frantically.

But Manchester United's defense is still solid.

Returning without success again and again made Real Madrid fans desperate.

This iron-walled defense is indeed impossible for people to break through.

Zidane also tried his best, and there was nothing clean on his body, but apart from winning a few free kicks in bad positions, he got nothing!

Ibrahimovic received another yellow card. In the 33rd minute, he elbowed De Jong, who defended him in a nougat style, but was lenient by the referee.

The halftime score was 0:1.

In the second half, Manchester United remained on the defensive, while Real Madrid's offense became weaker and weaker.

All the superstars played without energy.

Figo then came up and replaced Maicon, but it didn't work well. He made several crosses, although the placement was good, but under the interference of Pepe and Vermaelen, neither Ibrahimovic nor Raul scored.

Before the end of the game, Figo made a cross from the right, Raul turned around and volleyed vigorously in the penalty area, and finally broke through Manchester United's goal, making the score 1:1.
But Raul also ended up with a thigh strain and paid a heavy price.

There was not much time left in the game. At the last moment, even if Casillas rushed into the Manchester United penalty area, the score did not change.

In the end, Manchester United drew 1:1 with Real Madrid in the away game, eliminated their opponents 4:3 in two rounds, and reached the final.

The venue of the final is Schalke Stadium in Germany, and the opponent will not be announced until tomorrow night.

At the press conference after the game, Queiroz also took the blame and resigned. Real Madrid's record this season is indeed relatively average, and Queiroz naturally cannot continue to stay in this position.

And Manchester United eliminated Real Madrid for two consecutive seasons, and became a veritable Real Madrid star.
