Fan Bizhuang faintly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong, especially after seeing Bella grab the arm of the man carrying the suitcase and leave slowly, Fan Bizhuang suddenly panicked in his heart, understanding that this emotion should not appear on him, Fan Bizhuang shook his head and walked towards his teammates.

However, his expression was a little unpleasant, which made Giggs pat him on the head very understandingly.

"Don't be so depressed, this is life, not every conversation can be successful. Child, you still have a long way to go before you become a real man. Don't worry, I'm very experienced, and I'll give you the best advice. ”

Giggs's "comfort" made Fan Bizhuang cry and laugh, but the mood also became happy, Fan Bizhuang nodded, put his arm on the shoulders of his partners, and walked towards the outside of the hotel.

As he walked out of the revolving door, Fan Bizhuang's footsteps paused again, and his head looked back, looking at a foreign man who had just passed by, stunned.

"Isn't it, Fan? Have you met an acquaintance again? Oh God, that's a man...... Could it be that you even want to flirt with men? ”

Giggs exclaimed exaggeratedly.

"It just feels familiar. That man, where do I seem to have seen it? Hmm, where is it? ”

Fan Bizhuang shook his head, didn't stay any longer, and walked outside with the big guy.

In the hotel, Donas breathed a sigh of relief, and out of the corner of his eye, he watched Fan Bizhuang outside walk farther and farther away until he disappeared, and then whispered: "Is it recognized?" Probably not, right? ”

Shaking his head, Donas lifted his feet and left.

……

"I'm sorry, Bastian, uh, thank you."

The moment the elevator door closed, Bella let go of Bastien's arm, and the latter was still a little dizzy at the moment, he was a little inexplicable, why did Miss Bella pull her arm as soon as she saw her?

"Did you meet an acquaintance? Let me think...... Ha, he's supposed to be a guy you hate, that's why you're like this. ”

Bastian nodded affirmatively as he spoke his guess.

Bella didn't speak, and Mathilde didn't speak, just warned her son with her eyes to shut up.

Bastian clearly misunderstood, so he changed the subject, and a smile of excitement and joy appeared on his face: "Guess what I found?" Ha, I'm afraid you won't believe it...... The doorman told me that Manchester United was also staying at this hotel, which meant that Fan was also here...... There is nothing happier than being able to stay in the same hotel with Fan...... If I could meet him, Mathilde, you say, if I ask him for an autograph, will he give it to me? …… I guess so, I've heard he's good to the fans......"

Bella was still silent, hugging Xiao Fan, looking in a trance.

Mathilde couldn't stand his son's chatter and couldn't stand the sound of "pop~", and knocked his left hand on Bastian's head, "Shut up, Bastian!" ”

"I just want to go to Fan and ask for an autograph......"

Bastian said with some grievances, seeing his mother's expression getting more and more ugly, his voice finally became quieter.

Mathilde didn't pay attention to him, but stood beside Bella, looking at her worriedly: "Miss Bella, he ......"

"It's all right, Mathilde. We...... Don't mention him, okay? ”

"Okay."

Mathilde sighed in his heart, but also kept silent.

Bastian felt that something was wrong, even if his nerves were thick, but he wisely did not speak again, looking at Mathilde, and then at Bella, and in the small elevator room, the atmosphere was strangely silent.

……

The race officially started at 9 p.m. on the 24th in Marseille.

Although the record has been poor in recent years, Marseille is a traditional giant in Ligue 1 after all, rarely absent from the Champions League every year, and has a lot of experience playing against giants in various leagues, so there is not much extra emotion for Manchester United's home challenge.

After the start of the game, the home team played very methodically, and the performance at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends was very stable, especially in defense, Manchester United's unbeaten record in the Premier League this season can be described as the only one in the entire European football, such a strong strength and outstanding state, Marseille naturally did not dare to take it lightly, so, even at home, they focused more on defense.

The Reds were also in a tentative phase in the first 20 minutes, and it was only after they gradually gained a slight upper hand that they gradually increased their attack, but Marseille kept it tight and solid, and the visitors were unable to find many good chances for a while.

The knockout stage and the group stage are very different, and although the knockout stage is played over two legs, sometimes even a single round can decide the outcome, so everyone is careful.

Marseille's strategy was obvious, which was to defend on the counter-attack, trying to use the counter-attack to harass United's defence without conceding or conceding too few goals.

This is a common routine for weak teams to play strong teams, and Manchester United is used to it, but Marseille's defense will never be easily pushed out, which creates great difficulties for Manchester United's offensive battles.

From this point of view, Ferguson's attention to the opponent is very wise, even if the overall strength of the opponent is not on the same level as himself, but to be able to reach the Champions League knockout round, it is enough to prove that this team also has its own praise, and many times football games are not who is strong, they will be able to win, until the whistle blows, no one can say for sure.

Therefore, the offensive side was frustrated, and the mentally prepared Manchester United soldiers did not seem to be in a hurry, but patiently dealt with the opponent - after all, it is an away battle, and the victory is naturally to go all out, but if you can't win, then you must ensure that you don't lose, or concede less goals, and the better result is to try to get away goals, which is extremely important in the two-legged knockout round, maybe on the road to promotion, it is an away goal gap, which can change the final promotion result.

The first half was a bit dull, with United dominating the midfield but Marseille using a solid defence to fend off many of the Red Devils' attacks. Manchester United's shooting statistics are not many, and the best chance was in the 37th minute, when Van Bizhuang conceded the ball to Kaka's shot, but unfortunately, Kaka's high-quality curling shot from the edge of the box was unbelievably saved by the home team's goalkeeper, French international Mandanda.

United failed to make a breakthrough and Marseille had fewer chances to score, after all, they focused more on the defensive side and inevitably had no shortage in attack, but there were two quick counter-attacks that created a certain threat for the Reds.

Overall, in the first half of the game, Manchester United had the upper hand, but Marseille were not without the ability to fight back, and the two teams barely managed to maintain a balance.

Both teams returned to the midfield dressing room with a 0-0 scoreline.

At half-time, Ferguson made a number of adjustments and changes to the team's shortcomings in the first half, and demanded that the backfield, especially the two full-backs, need to give more support up front. Up front, Ferguson is asking the strikers to run more aggressively.

It's a clear sign to step up the attack, and while a draw is acceptable, Ferguson wants to do his best to win on the road, or at least on the road.

Ferguson was in the same mood as Marseille, who also stepped up their attacking efforts in the second half after a half-time adjustment, and it was clear that Marseille also wanted to win the game at home as much as possible, and against a formidable opponent like Manchester United, the lack of a goal in the first half gave them a lot of confidence.

Both teams have stepped up their attacking efforts, and the scene is starting to look better and more exciting. The tempo of the two teams increased suddenly, and the rapid confrontation between you and me made the fans in the stands addicted.

In such a situation, the goal came quickly.

In the end, Manchester United is stronger, in the 53rd minute, the starting veteran Giggs after a series of breakthroughs in the front, and the left fullback Evra made a wall-hitting cooperation, dribbling into the penalty area, facing the defense of "old teammate" Heinze, Giggs calmly dialed the ball to change direction, raised his foot to shoot, the football jumped between Heinze's legs, and rolled to the far corner of the goal on the turf, Mandanda's vision was blocked, the save was not possible, and the football successfully entered the net!

0:1！

Manchester United, who were playing away, were the first to score.

The fans of the visiting team who followed the team on the expedition to France were boiling and cheering.

However, their excitement did not last long, five minutes later, Marseille, who were not willing to lose, took advantage of Manchester United's big pressure and failed to return in time, launched a quick counterattack, the football after several passes, quickly hit the front of the Manchester United penalty area, and finally, the home team striker Gigna had a chance to send the football into the penalty area with a very hidden through ball, inserted forward Valbuena formed a single knife, Van der Sar failed, Valbuena fired a low shot, sent the football into the net.

The score became 1:1!

The two sides are back on the same starting line again!

From the lead to the equaliser, it was clearly unacceptable to the United players, so soon the visitors continued to storm the hosts.

The equaliser clearly gave the home side a huge boost and made them realise that United are strong but not invincible, and that if they can score a goal, they can score a second, or even a third...... Therefore, the home team is also actively looking for attacking opportunities.
