MTL - The Day I Played with Ronaldo-Chapter 534 Lyon crash
In Old Trafford, the award ceremony took place as scheduled. The Red Devils fans celebrate their fourth consecutive league championship trophy, which seems to be announcing that another absolute ruling dynasty of the Red Devils has been established.
If the UEFA Champions League can be won again this season, then this Manchester United will be permanently remembered in the history of the team.
Of course, this is not easy.
Manchester United's players did not celebrate the championship too much. Of course, some English players went to the night to drink and binge once. This is the tradition of English players.
After a day of rest, the team flew to France collectively and they will challenge Lyon at the Gerland stadium.
The huge advantage of holding 3 balls, as long as Manchester United does not crash, they can successfully enter the final, so the players are still very relaxed.
Ronaldo was not on the plane. Ferguson had planned to start him in a game that wasn't particularly important, but Ronaldo's knee had a lot of effusion. He needed a break and could only miss it.
Berbatov and Irving will compete for the position of the main center. Of course, it is also possible to advance Rooney's position. Scholes plays the front waist.
After arriving in Lyon, Ferguson gave the players a half-day vacation, so that everyone can prepare for the game with a more relaxed attitude.
At the press conference before the match, Lyon coach Pierre said: "I know the hope is slim, but we will not give up. Manchester United is a very strong team and they and Barcelona are the first in the UEFA Champions League. A higher-level team is better than other teams. "
"Our task is very difficult. We must score at least 3 goals in the game and try our best to prevent the opponent from scoring. But I believe this is not an impossible task. As long as we work together, miracles can happen. We We must master the initiative from the first minute and strive to score one or two goals in the first half. "
Ferguson gave his opponents a face: "Lyon is a very good team. Their ability to eliminate Real Madrid has fully demonstrated their strength. The score in the last game does not truly reflect the strength comparison between the two sides. We will play tomorrow. They will be very careful and try their best to avoid accidents. "
"The boys are very tired. This is why it is difficult for the Premier League team to win the Champions League. Our league is the only one in the European mainstream league that does not have a winter break. The fatigue of the players has accumulated. Not always can you use will Force overcomes fatigue. It will be a hard fight for us. "
On the evening of April 27, Lyon was waiting for Geron.
However, after the game began, Ricardo found that his opponent did not seem to be fighting vigorously.
This is also normal, and the huge gap of 3 goals is enough to make any team despair.
Although they seemed eager to win, they launched an attack as soon as the opening, but we can see that they did not play decisively and lacked the momentum to break the boat.
The first thing that created the threat was Manchester United.
After the opening, Manchester United still used the front-court pressing tactics. In the third minute, Ricardo sent a cross immediately after the ball was intercepted on the left. Out of the far post.
Exclaimed Gerel's stand. If this goal were scored, Lyon would have no hope at all.
Manchester United's push made Lyon's ball very difficult. They were eager to attack, but they couldn't organize. They could only use long passes to launch the offensive again and again. However, Manchester United's steel defense was not so easy to break. The opponent's offensive was resolved again and again. Valencia, a guest right-back, also performed well. Although the defensive skills were still a little lacking, his attitude made up for the lack of skills.
After pressing for 20 minutes, Ferguson waved his hand and Manchester United began to recover.
After several temptations, Lyon squeezed in and invested more players in the offense. Although it failed to create a real threat, it seemed that their offensive was decent.
However, this is just the return of light before death.
In the 26th minute, Manchester United launched a quick counterattack from the right. Nani dribbled the ball and passed the ball to the middle. Rooney kept the ball straight and Berbatov smoothly received the ball on the right side of the penalty area.
Although the speed is not fast and his body is not as strong as Warcraft, he still protects the ball well and passes the ball to the back post.
Lyon's defense was in chaos, and at this time there was no one guarding Ricardo ambushing at the back post. He easily jumped the header and slammed the football into the goal.
Manchester United lead 1: 0!
This goal completely destroyed Lyon.
If Lyon doesn't want to be eliminated, he has to score 5 goals without continuing to concede. Just scoring 4 goals will not work, they will still be eliminated due to fewer away goals.
In this case, their head coach Pierre cannot do anything to save the team.
The Lyon team launched a crazy attack, saying it was crazy because it had no routines and rules, it was purely kicking, the players forgot their tactical duties, and the defenders could not maintain the full defense line.
This Lyon seems to be arrogant, but it is extremely fragile.
Although they also got some opportunities, in the 30th minute, Ge Wu's wonderful pass on the sideline almost helped Bastos break the goal, but the latter's close shot missed.
In the 41st minute, Manchester United once again penetrated Lyon's defense line easily. Carrick found Rooney in the backcourt. Longway squeezed the defensive player with a strong body. After running the ball for 20 meters, he passed the ball to the penalty area. Berbatov.
Berbatov stopped the ball, but it was difficult to turn around. After looking up, he knocked the ball back outside the penalty area.
Ricardo, who just ran outside the penalty area, did not make any adjustments ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ The ball was shot with a kick, the football turned into a white light, and it flew straight into the Lyon goal.
This world wave gives Manchester United a 2-0 lead away!
Ferguson also applauded Ricardo's wonderful goal.
In fact, Ricardo is not playing very actively today. There has been no breakthrough so far. It is completely handled by the opportunistic striker's approach, but so casually mixing can also get two goals. It can only be said that It is the top players' ability to capture fighters that is too strong.
In the 60th minute of the game, after the yellow card, Lyon's Kerry applauded the referee with dissatisfaction and was ridiculed by the referee showing a yellow card.
Lyon had to beat 11 to 10.
Even the person who believes in miracles most firmly will not believe that miracles will come to Lyon. Although there are 30 minutes left in the game, Lyon's fans began to leave a lot. Only the Red Devils fans who accompanied the team's expedition still sang and danced to celebrate the team into the final.
This turned the rest of the game into a personal show for Manchester United players.
