MTL - The Day I Played with Ronaldo-Chapter 543 Not as good as people
After the start of the second half, Manchester United was still actively fighting for the high position, but Inter Milan's formation had a certain recovery, and played very cautiously. The offensive football expected by the commentators did not appear as scheduled. Even Riko actively returned to the defense, assisting Cambiasso and Maicon in defending Ricardo, often forming a three-person double-team. Ricardo had to reduce his own ball control and use a kick to sort out the front and center. field.
And Manchester United recovered the formation after robbing for six or seven minutes without forming a threat.
Both sides have begun to emphasize ball control, defense, and play more steadily.
"This is my impression of the Champions League final," the commentator joked. "I thought I went to the wrong place in the first half."
But from the 60th minute onwards, the two sides began to attack in unison.
First, Inter Milan kicked off the offensive. Rico moved to the left to get the ball and gave it to Milito after the breakthrough. After passing the ball into the penalty zone, Millito took Ferdinand and returned the ball. Riko suddenly kicked Shot, Van der Sar extended his arm and hit the ball out of the crossbar.
Soon Manchester United was still in color. Nani suddenly cut in after taking the ball on the right and made a step to Rooney. Rooney tipped. Ronaldo quickly started. The offside succeeded in obtaining a single shot opportunity, but Cesar attacked very In time, blocked the shot angle of Ronaldo.
Ronaldo kicked his feet hurriedly, the ball was slightly refracted in the back of Lucio's leg, rubbing the far post to the bottom line.
"This is Ronaldo's second great opportunity wasted in this game," the commentator said sadly. "No matter how great a hero is, he will also be defeated by time. Think of his amazing explosiveness when he was young. Desperate speed, precise footwork, hey ... After all, it's almost 34 years old. Everyone cherish it. We don't see how long Ronaldo played. This may even be his last appearance in the Champions League It's the final. "
Corner taken by Manchester United.
Lucio made another mistake. He made a clearance and kicked the ball directly to Ricardo's feet. Ricardo again staged a vigorous volley, but this time was a bit lucky, the football was rubbing the post on the side net.
Soon Manchester United had a steal in the frontcourt and the ball was delivered to Nani's foot. Nani successfully broke through the defender of Zivo and passed the ball to the back point. Sealed out.
Due to the huge physical energy consumption of both sides, Ferguson and Mourinho made the first substitution adjustment.
Stankovic replaced Zivo, and Zanetti returned to the left-back position.
Valencia replaces Nani.
Not long after the substitution, Manchester United had a steal in the backcourt and Evra made a long pass to attack.
Ricardo pulled to the sideline to get the ball. Maicon went to defend. Ricardo suddenly kicked the ball and then chased the ball around Maicon along the sideline.
The ball is divided!
The atmosphere at the scene was suddenly stimulated to a high tide.
This is pure speed! Maicon used both hands and feet and wanted to delay Ricardo's speed, but Ricardo was like lightning and overtaking forcibly. This scene saw the blood of the fans!
Everyone is as if something is stuck in their throats, and it's uncomfortable to scream and exhaust!
Ricardo surpassed Maicon and continued to accelerate the incision. After cutting into the penalty area, he lightly drew the ball to the bottom line to avoid Samuel's up and then passed the ball to the middle.
Rooney's shovel before the run did not touch the football, but Ronaldo, who ran after the run, lived up to expectations. He volleyed around 10 meters from the goal. The football hit the net heavily, causing a white wave.
"Ronaldo Goalllllllll! In the 68th minute of the game, Manchester United took the lead again!" The narrator exclaimed excitedly. "Ronaldo did not continue to waste the opportunity. His shot was as accurate and stable as he was young! He is still a horrible goal Killer! "
"This ball, Inter Milan did not make mistakes. It was Ricardo who tore through the defense of Inter Milan by himself. This is a difference in ability!"
"The strength of the two teams is actually not very different. Let me say that the only difference is that Manchester United owns Ricardo and Inter Milan does not! This is a player who can create miracles and dominate the game!"
Ferguson cheerfully got up and applauded, and hugged the assistant coach around him.
Mourinho stood angrily on the sidelines, looking away, looking as if to find something to vent, or calling a player to scold him.
But who should I scold?
No one just made a mistake. Every player did his best.
Can only be stranger than others.
The game continues.
Inter kicked off Inter Milan for a moment, panicked and was counterattacked by Manchester United.
In the 70th minute, after Valencia crossed the defensive pass of Zanetti on the right, Rooney nodded the ball in the front, and Ricardo, who followed him, was a little slower, and did not play. He barely hit the ball with his toes. For a moment, the football rolled softly towards the goal, and Samuel made a clearance from the goal line.
In the 72nd minute, Ricardo retreated to the midfield to take the ball, and suddenly sent a kick over the top. Ronaldo caught up with the football on the right side of the penalty area and continuously changed the line. Did not try to shake Lucio again, forcibly kicked the shot, and was confiscated by Sasser.
The Inter Milan scene is so passive, Mourinho can only think of other ways to restore the situation. Balotelli appears and replaces Rico.
Soon Sir Alex Ferguson also made adjustments, Giggs appeared and replaced Ronaldo.
Ronaldo slowly came to an end, and all fans, whether they were Manchester United fans, neutral Real Madrid fans or Inter Milan fans, stood up to applaud him.
Everyone knows that this is probably the last time a generation of ball kings appeared on the stage of the Champions League final.
He ended his trip to the Champions League with a wonderful goal. It is very comforting.
"Thank you for giving me the chance, sir, for making me last time to appear in the Champions League final." Ronaldo said emotionally.
"No, I thank you, thank you for your wonderful goal, and thank you for letting us lead. Next, let's watch other people's performance."
Someone else's performance? Ronaldo followed the dazzling red No. 10, smiling and showing rabbit teeth. The new king of the ball is about to ascend the throne.
After Giggs appeared, he appeared in the left forward position. Ricardo kicked the front waist and Rooney topped the front.
Ricardo also consumes a lot of energy. When he comes to the front waist, he can focus more on organization instead of breaking the ball often.
And replacing 37-year-old veteran Giggs and 34-year-old veteran Ronaldo is not a failure.
Although Giggs is no longer fast and his physical fitness has declined, he can still contribute to a wonderful performance and even finalize.
