After letting go, Busquets used his body to block Bruno so that Bruno could not relax, while at the same time hoping that his teammate Pique could come up and assist in defense in time.

Facing Busquets' physical confrontation, he was indeed unable to squeeze the Barcelona veteran away, but he was also not squeezed away. Especially when he dribbled into the penalty area, he clearly felt that Busquets' movements were restrained.

This is a sensitive area, and an accident can result in a penalty kick.

Bruno not only observed the situation around him with his peripheral vision, but also stared at Pique in the penalty area.

The former Manchester United center back was a bit far away from Busquets just now, and at this moment he was shaking off Harry Kane and rushing towards him.

Bruno could tell the time just by looking at him.

He is sure!

After just stepping into the penalty area, Bruno made adjustments with his first touch of the ball.

Busquets was very experienced and immediately realized that Bruno was going to shoot. He didn't care about anything else and took a step forward, fell to the ground and made a tackle, intending to block Bruno's shot with his body.

But the young Bruno was obviously faster. By the time Busquets realized something was wrong, Bruno had already kicked the ball!

"Bruno dribbled the ball into the penalty area..."

"Kick right up and hit the door!"

“The ball went in!!!!”

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLL!!!!!"

"In the 7th minute, in the 7th minute, Manchester United broke through Barcelona's goal!"

"Bruno made another diagonal run into the penalty area. Gundogan's straight pass was just right. Bruno took the ball and dribbled into the penalty area. Busquets was powerless to stop it!"

"Pique was distracted by Harry Kane and couldn't stop Bruno's shot."

"The ball went directly into the bottom right corner of the goal!"

"1:0! Manchester United temporarily takes the lead!"

……

………………

The entire Millennium Stadium was in a state of complete carnival. No one had expected that the game would start so suddenly, and that Manchester United would be able to break through Barcelona's goal so easily.

In fact, this was not the first chance Manchester United had. Just three minutes into the game, Bruno made a stunning long shot that hit the crossbar and shocked Barcelona.

Rashford, Harry Kane and Bruno all had very good chances afterwards, especially in the fifth minute, when Bruno had another long shot that hit the post and went out of the bottom line.

……

"It can be said that Bruno was very active at the beginning of the game and showed his best form. The quality of his two long shots was very good, which surprised everyone in Barcelona. So Busquets did not dare to relax his vigilance against him and was forced to follow him out, but the result..."

"There were some problems with Pique's defensive support this time, but he was also restrained by Harry Kane."

"The characteristics of Manchester United's front four offensive players are too obvious. This combination will give any opponent a headache."

……

Bruno rushed out of the stadium madly, with his arms open all the way, gliding in the Millennium Stadium.

All the fans in the stadium were shouting his name until he finally stopped under the main stand, hugged his teammates who had caught up with him, and celebrated the goal happily.

………………

This one goal almost killed the game completely, as Barcelona only managed to tie the score after scoring three goals.

It can be said that the morale of the Barcelona team has been hit very hard, which can be seen from the expressions on the faces of each of their players, especially their defense.

"Barcelona's defense has never been solid. Last season's title win relied on the team's passing and attacking, which masked the team's defensive fragility."

"But this season, due to the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo and the aging of players such as Modric, Real Madrid's competitiveness has been greatly weakened. After 32 league games, they have only scored 56 goals and have only 61 points, 13 points behind Barcelona. All data are the lowest since the 2009-2010 season. In addition, Atletico Madrid's performance is not very good, allowing Barcelona to lead the La Liga standings with a huge advantage of 9 points. It seems that winning the La Liga championship is a matter of time, but the decline of Barcelona's strength is an indisputable fact, especially their defense has begun to have problems frequently. This game is more like a microcosm."

………………

"In stark contrast, Manchester United has been performing more and more impressive since Mourinho took over. Not only did they win the league title with extremely high scores in the past two seasons, they also created the longest unbeaten record in Premier League history with 69 games unbeaten. Last season, they also ended Real Madrid's dream of winning the Champions League three times in a row, returning to the top of Europe after a decade."

"Bruno, in particular, has maintained a very high offensive efficiency in recent seasons. So far this season, he has scored 32 goals in 2 Premier League games. What's more rare is that he also has 10 assists, almost averaging 2.4 goals per game. In the Champions League, his performance is even more shocking. In games, he has goals and assists, averaging goals per game. He is in great form."

"In the summer of 2016, Manchester United spent the highest price in history, million euros, on Bruno. When they brought him from Udinese, many people thought that the money was not worth it and that the risk was too great. But now it seems that the money was well spent, and it was extremely worth it, because Bruno's arrival has completely raised Manchester United to a higher level."

"In the three years before Bruno joined, it was very difficult for Manchester United to qualify for the Champions League and they fell into a low period in the team's history. But after Bruno joined Manchester United, they won almost every championship they could get and became the second team in European football history to win all the championships in one season. They are the second recognized universal team!"

………………

Mourinho on the sidelines obviously recognized Bruno's performance. Especially in the Champions League, Bruno obviously played more adaptably and his offensive efficiency was more stable.

In the Premier League, he scored 32 goals and assisted 35 times in 23 games, averaging 1.8 goals per game, which was a performance that shocked the world. However, compared with his efficiency of 2.4 goals per game in the Champions League, it pales in comparison.

就算是上赛季也是差不多。当时布鲁诺在38场英超联赛打进41球助攻23次,场均制造1.7球。可是在欧冠赛场,布鲁诺却是在12场比赛里打进14球助攻11次,场均制造2.1球。

It can be said that Bruno has made an indelible contribution to Manchester United's unstoppable performance in the Champions League in the past two seasons.

Of course, they are also performing very well in the Premier League. After all, they are very likely to become the third team in Premier League history to win three consecutive league titles after the end of this season!

Although the first two teams to win three consecutive titles were also Manchester United, Mourinho is the second head coach after Ferguson who could win three consecutive Premier League titles.

"I have a strong feeling, Rui." Mourinho raised his head and glanced at the brightly lit stadium above his head, "We are still the Champions League champions this season."

Faria nodded.

After eliminating Barcelona, ​​Manchester United's opponent in the semi-finals will be the winner between Juventus and Ajax. If it is Juventus, Manchester United may have to go through a tough battle, after all, Juventus has that man. However, the news from the Allianz Stadium in Turin is that the score is still the same, which means that Ajax has a very high chance of an upset.

Although Ajax is also very good, given Manchester United's strength, it is highly likely that they will be eliminated.

………………

"If we can really win the Champions League, two Champions Leagues and one Europa League in three years..."

Faria did not finish his words, but his meaning was clear.

With two Champions League titles and one Europa League in three years, Mourinho will lead Manchester United to establish another red dynasty.

Mourinho didn't say it, but his heart was full of desire, and his eyes soon turned to Bruno on the field.

This 24-year-old compatriot is his hope and the source of his confidence.

At this time, Bruno on the court was still looking for opportunities after the game restarted.

Especially for Busquets, Bruno frequently used his advantages and range of activities to pull and create opportunities. This made the 31-year-old Barcelona veteran a little exhausted, but he had to struggle to support it.

Barcelona tried to counterattack after losing the ball. Manchester United barely suppressed Barcelona's attack after Gundogan and Luke Shaw received two yellow cards.

In the 26th minute, Manchester United once again counterattacked after intercepting the ball in the midfield. Bruno rushed to the outside of the penalty area and passed the ball directly to Mbappe on the right.

Mbappe quickly ran into the penalty area, received the ball, made a quick stop, then suddenly started, shook off Pique, and when he saw Ter Stegen leaving the goal to attack, he decisively passed the ball to the front of the goal with his left foot.

The ball passed between Ter Stegen and Pique, and the Barcelona goalkeeper and defender were panicked and tried desperately to make up for it. But Harry Kane jumped out from behind Pique and easily pushed the ball with his right foot in front of the goal, sending the ball into the Barcelona goal again.

2: 0!

………………

Harry Kane, who lost his balance due to the shot, got up from the ground and quickly rushed to the sidelines, while Bruno quickly caught up with him and jumped directly onto his back.

The England striker celebrated wildly on the sidelines with Bruno on his back, venting his excitement and excitement after scoring the goal.

On the other hand, the Barcelona players on the field lowered their proud heads like defeated roosters.

The moment he drew Manchester United, he really felt that he had defeated his opponent, because they had good memories of meeting Manchester United twice in the Champions League, winning two Champions League titles.

But what was unexpected was that the final result was that they were beaten so badly by Manchester United, losing both home and away games.

This is definitely a result that none of them can accept.
