Chapter 493 On The Road
Is the prosperity of Chinese football an illusion?How far can the Chinese team go in the World Cup in South Africa?
Yu Liang also wanted to sit down and think about these two issues carefully.
Maybe you can find the answer, maybe you can't.
But now he doesn't have the time to think about these two issues.
After the national team match day, returning to the club ushered in a week of double matches.After the game against Aston Villa, they once again devoted themselves to intense preparations.In the middle of the week, they will welcome Champions League quarter-final opponents Porto at Old Trafford.Although in the first round of the game, he was unable to play due to suspension, but the training still could not be missed.After all, the knockout rounds are two rounds.
Manchester United welcomes Porto at Old Trafford.
Manchester United made careful preparations for this game, but Manchester United's gate was broken by Porto in the first 4 minutes.It was Uruguay international Christian Rodriquez who broke through Van der Sar's ten fingers.Lucho Gonzalez crossed from the wing and was cleared by Evra. The ball landed directly at the feet of Christian Rodriguez. After stopping the ball past Evra, Rodriguez volleyed a close corner break down.
After taking the lead, Porto turned away from the host and set off a frenzy of attack at Old Trafford.Porto's fantastic start caught Manchester United by surprise, and the crazy attack made Manchester United not have a chance to breathe.
However, Porto's luck was not good. Manchester United, who were frantically suppressed, equalized after 11 minutes.
Rooney succeeded in counter-robbing in the frontcourt. After breaking into the penalty area, he shook the opponent's goalkeeper and pushed an empty goal into the net.
After Manchester United equalized, the game started to get tense.
The anxious game lasted until the 84th minute of the second half, when the deadlock on the field was broken again.Tevez scored the goal and Rooney assisted Tevez.
Carlos Tevez's goal made the Old Trafford stadium boil, and tens of thousands of fans were chanting Carlos Tevez's name.
In a two-round home and away game, any goal may determine the final result.What's more, this is Manchester United's home court. A draw is unacceptable to them. Now that they have overtaken the score, they can't celebrate wildly.
Then the singing in the Old Trafford stadium has not been heard, and the fans are bouncing in the stands waiting for the end of the game.
However, after a few minutes, the cheerful singing stopped abruptly, and Porto equalized the score.
It is similar to Porto's first goal. After O'Shea made a clearance, the football fell to the feet of Porto player Mariano Gonzalez, and Gonzalez scored from the edge of the small penalty area.
The score of 2-2 has been maintained until the end of the game.
Manchester United scored a draw at home, such a score is unacceptable.
Two away goals were fatal for Manchester United.
What's more, in the history of the three confrontations between the two teams, Manchester United was eliminated by the opponent twice.Throughout history and the present, can fans not worry about the future of the team?
The media will naturally not give up this opportunity to add insult to injury.
Previously unbeaten in 45 games in all competitions, gods blocked and killed gods and Buddhas blocked and killed Buddha.Now the Champions League has been poured by the opponent twice at home, and he left happily.
The contrast between before and after is too great, can the media not laugh at it?
Not only the media ridiculed, but even the competitors breathed a sigh of relief.Because Manchester United is no longer a super god team, they finally returned to the earth.
Amidst the jeers of the media and the concerns of the fans, Manchester United flew straight to Porto after beating Sunderland 2-1.
Although Porto now does not have the domineering and strength that reached the top of Europe a few seasons ago, it is undeniable that they are still a strong team with outstanding strength.
In the packed dragon stadium, amidst the cheers of the fans, the second round of Manchester United's match against Porto officially started.
After the game started, Porto launched a fierce attack.
"With two away goals in hand, Porto only needs to end 0-0 at home to advance to the semi-finals of the Champions League, but looking at their current posture, it seems that they are not satisfied..."
Although Porto holds two away goals, Manchester United only needs one goal to keep them out of the top four in the Champions League.
So they couldn't and didn't dare to end 0-0. Their first wave of offense ended with Hulk's long shot from the outside of the penalty area being confiscated by Van der Sar.
Porto want to score, Manchester United want to score even more.The home court was tied, and the pressure on Manchester United was even greater. If they didn't pay attention, their defending champion would die on the way to defending the title.
"Manchester United are attacking, they are now forced to a dead end, scoring is their only way out now! Yu Liang took the ball in the frontcourt and passed it to Rooney, Rooney passed it to Ronaldo, Ronaldo dribbled the ball laterally and changed direction, He pulled it back again and passed it to Yu Liang. See how Yu Liang handles the ball?"
The magnetic voice of global sports commentators has spread to thousands of households.
At this moment, the fans who stayed up all night sitting in front of the TV held their breath and waited for Yu Liang's next move.
After Manchester United was tied by Porto at home, many Chinese fans were there to speculate what the outcome of the first round of the match between the two sides would have been if Yu Liang had not been suspended.
Yu Liang, who sat in the stands and watched the first round of the game, was also thinking about a question, that is, if he was on the court, could he help Manchester United beat Porto?
He didn't know the answer himself.
But this game, he absolutely cannot lose.
The arch of the foot stopped Ronaldo's pass, and Yu Liang quickly glanced at the surrounding situation, no one was there.
Porto's defensive players were all torn apart by Ronaldo, Rooney and Berbatov, forming a vacuum around him.
If you don't shoot at this time, when will you wait?
Yu Liang immediately made the choice to shoot, and kicked the football hard with his right foot.
The football flew out quickly and flew directly into the upper right corner of the goal. The Porto goalkeeper just waved there helplessly, as if saying to Yu Liang: Welcome to the goal.
The moment the football hit the net, cheers erupted in the Dragon Stadium.
This was issued by Manchester United fans from a corner of the stands. Although they were small in number, their momentum was not small at all.
After scoring the goal, Yu Liang waved his arms at the stands where the Manchester United fans were. He didn't make any other celebrations. He rushed into Porto's goal and returned to the center circle with the football in his arms.
One goal, he is not satisfied.
……
"Yu Liang shot... the goal was scored, the goal was scored, 1-0! Manchester United scored in the 6th minute and the total score is 3-2. If this score is maintained until the end of the game, then Manchester United will win Advance to the semi-finals of the Champions League. Good job Yu Liang!"
"Good job!"
Lost two at home, Ferguson is also under a lot of pressure.
When Yu Liang scored a goal, the pressure was released at this moment, and Ferguson shouted directly from the sidelines.
He has experienced countless wind and rain, and he has never been so excited and excited like this moment.
Like Ferguson, other people on the bench shouted excitedly from the sidelines.
Advancement is not hopeless.
The defending champion is still on the way!
