Zhigao Supreme: The Legend of Greenery

Chapter 390
Losing 2-1 in the first leg, Lyon must score more than two goals in Old Trafford if they want to advance to the quarter-finals, so offense has become the only way for them to advance.Therefore, after the opening whistle sounded, they won the right to kick-off and immediately launched a swift attack, trying to take advantage of the Manchester United players' unsteady foothold and rush to the next city.

In the first round of the game, they took advantage of the attack in the opening stage and almost broke through the gate of Manchester United.

But wishes are beautiful, reality is cruel.

This is Old Trafford, not Gerland.

Under Manchester United's defense, the Lyon team's offense was intercepted without even being able to pass the center line.

After completing the steal, the Manchester United team immediately launched a counterattack.

After Ryan Giggs broke through the left sideline continuously and attracted two players from the Lyon team to defend, he kicked his foot and rubbed lightly. The football flew over the defender's head and flew directly to the left side of the penalty area.Evra, who was plugged in, stopped the ball and crossed the goal.Dong Wangwang and Rooney, who had formed a double ghost hit the goal, failed to touch the football, and the football sliding past the goal rolled directly out of the bottom line at the far end.

"Oh, Manchester United missed a wonderful opportunity! Lyon escaped a disaster!"

King Dong and Rooney sighed regretfully, and then gave Evra a thumbs up at the same time.

At the same time, there was a sigh of regret in the stadium, and the Manchester United fans who were ready to celebrate the goal covered their faces and sighed.The Lyonians were lucky enough to cheer there, but they were quickly drowned out by the sighs of the Manchester United fans.

The attack failed and almost lost the ball. It stands to reason that the Lyon team should slow down their offensive rhythm.

But they didn't do this. After the goalkeeper kicked off, they still launched an attack without reservation, advancing forward through a fast pass.After the continuous passing failed to form a breakthrough in the middle, Juninho distributed the ball to the foot of Ben Arfa on the wing.

In the first round, Benzema and Ben Alpha performed very poorly under the defense of Yu Liang.However, in this game, their head coach, Perrin, still gave them full trust, and the two started together.

Ben Arfa made a quick drive along the touchline, but was soon cornered by Brown and Scholes.

With the painful lessons of the first round, Ben Arfa played wisely.

Seeing that he was about to fall into a dead end, he immediately knocked the ball across to the middle, and then ran to seek opportunities.

"Ben Arfa passed the ball to Benzema, and Yu Liang defended it..."

The commentator's voice suddenly increased a bit, and Benzema was in a panic under Yu Liang's defense in the first round.

Obviously the collision between the two of them is full of highlights.

But to everyone's disappointment, the duel between the two did not take place.Benzema did not choose to rush, but passed the ball with a diagonal long pass to Ben Arfa who ran out of the gap, and at the same time he also went straight into the penalty area.

Yu Liang also rushed towards the penalty area without hesitation. While advancing forward, Yu Liang also observed the situation on the wing, only to see that Ben Alpha got out of the way and kicked a pass, and the ball went straight Go ahead.Yu Liang immediately stretched out his hand to pull Benzema, and then jumped to get the ball out of the baseline before Benzema, and the referee gave a corner kick.

Dissatisfied, Benzema immediately found the referee and complained there. Although he could not change the result of the penalty, he could at least remind the referee.

Lyon's corner kick did not threaten Manchester United's goal. Ferdinand headed out of the restricted area to clear the siege. Scholes controlled the ball from outside the restricted area, and Giggs counterattacked with a diagonal pass.

Dong Wang, who stayed near the center circle and waited for an opportunity to counterattack, turned around and advanced the moment Scholes passed the ball. His excellent explosive power and speed allowed Dong Wang to quickly get rid of the two defensive players left behind by the Lyon team.Giggs, who advanced from the wing, sent the ball to King Dong with a long diagonal pass without hesitation.

Dong Wang, who made great strides to catch up with football, directly formed a single-handed trend.

After dribbling the ball to the front of the penalty area, Dong Wang raised his foot and volleyed vigorously.Although the goalkeeper of the Lyon team judged the right direction, all the saves seemed so futile in the face of King Dong's heavy shot.

The football hit the net, causing a wave of white spray.

The silent Old Trafford stadium immediately boiled up.

After the excited fans uttered huge cheers, they shouted King Dong's name in unison, with an incomparably loud momentum.

Dong Wangwang, who scored the goal, did not stop his pace, rushed to the sidelines and directly stuffed his thumb into his mouth.The intention of this celebration is very obvious. He wants to dedicate this goal to his unborn child.

After the Manchester United players sent their blessings, the game started soon.

For Ferguson, this series of games is over.Not only holding two away goals, but now leading the opponent by two goals.If the Lyon team wants to advance, they must score three goals in the next time.It seems that no one has managed to score Manchester United three goals in Old Trafford.

But Alan Perrin does not want to end his Champions League journey like this.

He accepts Lyon's biggest task is to make a bigger breakthrough in the Champions League.

So after losing the ball, he immediately walked to the sidelines and kept making forward gestures-attack!This is the only way he can go!

So a scene that Manchester United fans couldn't believe was staged in Old Trafford.

Lyon squeezed Manchester United into the half with a frenzied attack.

Although the Lyon team has an absolute advantage from the situation, the information that can be clearly obtained from the big screen in the field is that Manchester United leads 1-0.

During this period of time, Yu Liang became the busiest person.

Not only do you have to mark Benzema full-time in the middle, but sometimes you have to pull to the side to help defend.

What's more terrible is that Benzema is not like in the first round. He has become a lot more active in this game. He keeps running, passing and cutting to complete the attack, which makes Yu Liang hard to defend.

Fortunately, in Manchester United's whole-hearted defense, the Lyon team was not able to break through Manchester United's gate.

At the end of the first half, Manchester United still led Lyon 1-0.

Changing sides in the second half, Ferguson took the lead in making adjustments, replacing Scholes with Carrick.

Carrick's playing has increased the interception ability of Manchester United's midfielder. Although the Lyon team has a fierce attack, it is even more distant from the goal.Seeing that the game has entered the last 10 minutes, the hope of Lyon's promotion is getting smaller and smaller, and the players' hearts have become more impatient. After Benzema and Ben Arfa received the ball in the frontcourt, the general situation The next will choose to do it alone.Their impatient performance exacerbated Lyon's process of failure.

In the 73rd minute, Benzema forced Yu Liang in the middle and was cut off. Yu Liang didn't even give Benzema a chance to foul, and directly launched a long pass to counterattack. Ronaldo made a continuous breakthrough from the right and then made a pass from the bottom. Rooney shoveled into the net from the middle, 2-0.

Rooney's goal completely shattered Lyon's confidence. They failed to organize a decent offense in the last 20 minutes. Manchester United also slowed down the offensive rhythm in a timely manner. In the end, Manchester United defeated visiting Lyon 2-0 at home, and the total score of the two rounds was 4-1. Advance to the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
