"Nani! Nani! Nice break! He passed Kolarov! The former Lazio left-back is not known for his defensive skills...... Cross! ”

The football passed the crowd in front of the goal and fell directly to the back point, where it was sparsely populated, everyone was concentrated in the front and middle, and Obertan at the back point was almost unmarked!

The United fans in the stands stood up en masse, while also raising their arms, ready to cheer. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Obertan!!"

The French youngster jumped high and shook his head to attack the goal!

He practiced this kind of ball many times in training, and he was able to top it nine times out of ten. But this time he went off the rails and hit the side net!

The ball lifted the net and the badly angled Manchester United fans cheered, thinking the goal had been scored. But they didn't see the United players cheering with their arms outstretched, and Obertan with his head in his hands on the header was definitely not a gesture to celebrate the goal.

"Off!"

In the eighteenth minute, Obertan unbelievably deflected the ball! Nani's passing couldn't have been better, and he didn't have anyone around him...... Looking at his frustration, it was clear that he couldn't forgive himself for not putting the ball in......"

"Manchester United are still attacking strongly, it doesn't look like it's Hoffenheim's home stadium at all, it's more like Old Trafford!"

"Hoffenheim continue to play like this, their first Champions League trip in their history will end after tonight......"

The commentators gave their opinions. With just 20 minutes to play, it was the visitors who had the upper hand in terms of attacking threats.

Everyone can see from this 20-minute game how terrible the old powerhouses are, and how immature the dark upstarts are.

As Alex Ferguson believes, this young team lacks enough experience and foundation when faced with such a life-and-death game. Otherwise, they wouldn't have seemed so panicked in the first place.

'It's a good thing for them to play in the Champions League because it gives them enough experience. I have never doubted the future of Hoffenheim, as long as their owners and coaches are always level-headed, know what they need and work towards this goal, then this team will become a new force in German football in the future. But...... Not now. "The commentators in England began to define Hoffenheim.

This is also because from the current point of view, although Manchester United have not scored, they have the advantage. Everyone thinks that it is only a matter of time before Manchester United win, after all, the difference in quality between the two sides is there.

But after all, the commentators are watching the game through a layer of glass, and their feelings about the game are definitely not as deep as the players on the field.

Seeing that Obertan almost scored, the Hoffenheim fans in the stands were shocked, but Chu Zhongtian was not impatient and angry. Because from these few minutes of play, he has already seen that his teammates are gradually getting rid of the anxiety and restlessness at the beginning of the game, and are getting back on track and returning to normal, as usual.

Chu Zhongtian's method of controlling the pace finally paid off.

He felt that United were aware of this as well, so they suddenly intensified their attack in the last few minutes and seemed to want to score early. It's been 20 minutes and the score is still 0-0, so it's hard to say what the game will look like when Hoffenheim are back on track at their home stadium.

The pressing in front didn't work, so it was natural to score as soon as possible.

It's time to show what we're capable of.

※※※ When Simunic passed the football to Chu Zhongtian in front, Fletcher suddenly went around the front defense, intending to cut off Chu Zhongtian's return pass, but when Chu Zhongtian gently smoothed the outside of his foot, the football flew diagonally along his outside instep, and then Chu Zhongtian turned around and ran forward, he did not return the pass to control the rhythm this time!

Manchester United's players thought Chu Zhongtian would continue to control the tempo and wait for a better opportunity. Chu Zhongtian suddenly changed his rhythm, slow to fast!

The ball flew diagonally in front of it, and naturally it landed at the feet of the wide players.

Weiss received the ball and saw Chu Zhongtian step forward, so he passed the football back.

Fletcher turned around and chased back, and the one who was blocking in front of Chu Zhongtian was Carrick, who had been dragging behind.

Chu Zhong's waist made a feint, and it seemed that he was going to pass people. The left foot went around the ball, but when the right foot came up, it flicked with the outside instep, and the ball rolled to the side again, and Weiss controlled the ball and took it forward.

Although Weiss's later cross was blocked by Patrice Evra off the touchline, Hoffenheim's attack earned cheers from the fans in the stands.

The first 20 minutes were full of cheers from the United fans, but this time there was a great performance, with the fans in the stands cheering and applauding as if they had scored a goal – and of course, it was still a little short of the moment when the goal was actually scored.

Seeing that Weiss's attack did not succeed this time, the first reaction of Salihovic, Ibisevic, Van Nistelrooy and others was not annoyance, but turned their heads to look at Chu Zhongtian. Chu Zhongtian made a gesture to them and shouted in German: "It's better for me to come!" ”

What he meant was that the tempo was still in his hands, and that it was not the time to let the horse go. The clutch cannot be completely released, and the point must be pressed.

He Ping, the commentator on the Chinese side, was full of praise for Chu Zhongtian: "Watching the performances of the forwards, a game lasts for 90 minutes, and you may only need to pay attention to more than ten or twenty minutes, and you will be satisfied." But watching Chu Zhongtian's game, you may miss a wonderful shot if you miss a minute. Look at the movement he just used to turn away from Fletcher and pedal the bicycle to pass the ball, which was smooth and natural. Such a move may only be made by Chinese players on the training ground, but Chu Zhongtian, who has experienced European football, can do it calmly in the game. That's the difference between our domestic football and Europe's top level football! ”

The match was also broadcast live on South Korea's KBS2 TV station, as Manchester United had Park Ji-sung, the number one star of their South Korean team. After watching Chu Zhongtian's performance in the midfield against several Manchester United generals, the South Korean commentator also had to admit that in today's Chinese team, only Chu Zhongtian is a star who can be compared with their Park Ji-sung, and both of them are representatives of the highest level of Asian football.

When Chu Zhongtian was still in Mace, Koreans still felt that Chu Zhongtian was inferior to Ahn Jung-hwan and Lee Young-pyo, but now they don't say that anymore.

After the throw-in was thrown, Chu Zhongtian took advantage of Sana's cover to take a long shot from outside the penalty area, but the ball deflected out of the goal.

This is the end of the attack.

※※※ Then Chu Zhongtian continued to control the team's offensive tempo, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and he was still carefully controlling the entire Hoffenheim team.

Manchester United, on the other hand, continued to attack and they still wanted to score.

Seeing that the game time was almost thirty minutes away, and Manchester United had not scored yet, Chu Zhongtian felt that the time was almost ripe.

The first time he launched a quick attack, Manchester United thought that this definite advantage was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and the "sometimes fast" one, they didn't pay much attention to it, but did their best to hold on.

Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for Hoffenheim to attack again, Chu Zhongtian did not fall behind with his teammates and control the rhythm, but continued to speed up and pass forward, and the three or two passes went to the front of Manchester United's penalty area, and then Ibisevic went straight to Van Nistelrooy, Van Nistelrooy received the ball, but it was missed under the interference of Ferdinand.

Then, like a sudden storm, Hoffenheim's offensive suddenly became swift.

Threatening attacks appeared one after another, changing the panicked image of the first twenty minutes, so that the cheers in the stands were bursting one after another, and there was no chance to stop.

"Chu raised his hand to ask for the ball......"

The football was passed to Chu Zhongtian's feet.

Fletcher and Scholes continued to flank back and forth. Chu Zhongtian didn't give them time to complete the encirclement in the first twenty minutes of the game, he directly passed the ball that had just passed it out again, and then cut his position in the air.

Scholes went to defend the man with the ball, and Fletcher continued to follow him, but not very closely, but hung from a suitable distance to protect space and make a press. Very clever choice.

After Baker on the side received the pass, he saw Chu Zhongtian move to the middle and passed the football to him horizontally. Fletcher saw the ball roll towards him again, and rushed up, ready to press closely.

Who would have thought that Chu Zhongtian spread his legs apart and leaked the football between his legs, and at the same time he made a small circle and strode forward.

Behind him it was Sana who received the ball. Sana just received the ball, and without delay, he directly passed the football to Chu Zhongtian, who was inserted forward.

Hoffenheim's attack suddenly picks up!

Chu Zhongtian did not continue to carry the ball after receiving the ball, but plugged it straight in the run!

The ball passed through the ribs between Nemanja Vidic and Park Ji-sung, and Park Ji-sung tried to break the pass with a flying tackle in the process of chasing back, and took the ball and grazed his toes, not only penetrating the Manchester United defence, but also temporarily depriving them of a defender.

"Scalpel-like passing, it's beautiful!!" The narrator exclaimed.

Salihovic received the ball in the space behind Park Ji-sung, and Hoffenheim went straight to the 30-metre area of Manchester United!

Chu Zhongtian, who completed the pass, did not stop in place, but inserted it into the penalty area. He ran diagonally forward, made a posture to meet the front point, led to his Carrick and defender Vidic, he pulled this way, created the space behind him, Van Nistelrooy cleverly inserted, Salihovic's pass also arrived, Van Nistelrooy met the ball and shot!

Unfortunately, the football was slightly over the crossbar, which only shocked the United fans into a cold sweat...... And this attack was just the prelude to a series of quick attacks by Hoffenheim. Next, under the impetus of Chu Zhongtian, Hoffenheim is like a motor running at full speed, constantly pushing the speed to new highs. The wave of attack came in waves, slapping towards Manchester United.

In the face of Hoffenheim's sudden and fierce attack, Manchester United also appeared very passive, which made Manchester United fans on the sidelines nervous with their cousins and forgot to speak.

It was the Hoffenheim fans who kept singing and cheering on the team. In their opinion, Hoffenheim's attack has accelerated, which means that the goal is not far away!

The huge flag in the stands was still flying, and below the flag was the besieged goal of Manchester United.

"Chu's long shot! Saved by goalkeeper Kutsak...... After clearing the ball and kicking it far, Hoffenheim reorganized the attack...... Direct pass! It's a pity that Weiss didn't receive it! ”

Ruud van Nistelrooy leaned on Rio Ferdinand in the box, and England's main centre-back did not dare to act rashly at this time...... Turn around and shoot! Pretty! The football was pounced on by Kutzsac! ”

"Horizontal pass! Missed, and at the back post, Ibisevic had just stopped the ball, and Salihovic rushed up and shot straight - it was missed! ”

Hoffenheim's offense was like a narrator's barrage of narration, and it was suffocating.

It was truly a life-and-death battle, and even the fans who watched it in front of the TV felt that way.

Under Hoffenheim's continuous and rapid attack, Manchester United's backline began to slowly crumble like a eroded by the continuous lapping of huge waves...... In the thirty-eighth minute, Chu Zhongtian's keen gap reached Park Ji-sung's side, and there was a vacancy to take advantage of. But he didn't play the ball right away, because there was no obvious opportunity yet, and he crossed it to Weiss on the right. Weiss made a feint on the flank, and when there were no good chances, he cut to the middle. Baker plugged in from behind at high speed, waiting for him to pass the ball.

Seeing this, Evra handed Weiss over to Obertan alone, and withdrew himself to follow Baker.

Weiss did not pass the football to Weiss, but to Chu Zhongtian in the middle.

Chu Zhongtian picked up his right leg and made a gesture to shoot directly from a distance. Manchester United player Michael Carrick, who already knew how good his long-range shot was, didn't dare to slack off and quickly turned his back to block it, but he lost his goal in this way. Chu Zhongtian buckled the ball, flashed past him, and broke through directly!

Then, against Fletcher, he leaned slightly to the side, lifted his left foot and hooked inward, looking like he wanted to pass to the right. Fletcher's center of gravity leaned a little bit that way.

Chu Zhongtian didn't pass the ball, he turned his ankle just a feint, and soon twisted his ankle again, and took advantage of the situation to turn the football to the left. Fletcher found that he had no center of gravity to keep up with him after he was fooled, so he could only make a quick decision here and shovel it, hoping that football and people would stay.

It's a pity that he was a little behind, and the football made Chu Zhongtian go.

Chu Zhongtian, who had passed Fletcher, walked diagonally all the way to the left, and when he saw him coming to his side, Park Ji-sung rushed forward. It was the first head-to-head battle between two of Asia's top stars.

Chu Zhongtian did not continue to dribble the ball, but flicked it lightly with the outside of his left foot, and the football fell to the feet of Salihovic, who was answering next to him, and at the same time he did not stop, continued to rush forward, crossed Park Ji-sung, pointed down with his left hand, and signaled Salihovic to pass the ball to him.

Salihovic made a decisive through pass, and the ball rolled past Park Ji-sung and behind him. Chu Zhongtian received the ball and continued to dribble the ball into the penalty area, at which time Vidic came over.

The vacancy that Chu Zhongtian thought would appear before finally appeared, Vidic came to chase him, and Park Ji-sung went back to make up for Vidic's position, but they ignored the defense of the ribs.

Chu Zhongtian made a cross from the bottom, but slammed the football to the diagonal back.

Everyone's eyes followed the rapidly rolling soccer ball to that vacuum. I saw Salihovic rush up and shoot angrily!

No one had time to wonder how he knew there was a gap and a teammate when he was diving forward with the ball in his head, because the ball was already flying towards the goal.

"Shoot-"

When the ball slipped between Park Ji-sung's legs and suddenly appeared in front of Kucssac, the Polish goalkeeper made a save but it was too late...... The soccer ball slipped under his hand and crashed headlong into the net!

The continuous cheers finally reached its peak, and 24,000 Hoffenheim fans jumped from their seats, raised their arms and shouted, "Hoffenheim!! ”

※※※ "Chu broke through...... Chu, Chu, Chu! He's in! Transmit...... To the rear! Salihovic! Salihovich - gooooooooooal!! ”

"The ball is in! The ball is in! Chu Zhongtian assists Salihovic and Hoffenheim take the lead at their home stadium! ”

"The first 20 minutes were dominated by Manchester United, but these 10 minutes are Hoffenheim's dominance! Salihovic's goal put them in a good position in the race to qualify from the group! ”

"Even though the person who scored the goal was Salihovic, I would say that 90% of the credit for this goal should be credited to Chu! His series of breakthroughs was too unexpected! Manchester United's players definitely didn't expect Chu Zhongtian to break through so close to the goal. In the past, his dribbling breakthroughs were initiated near the center circle, and he stopped seven or eight meters before the free throw arc. But this time, Chu resolutely broke through, thus completely disrupting Manchester United's defense! What a beautiful attack! ”

After scoring the goal, Salihovic was very excited, he turned around and ran to Chu Zhongtian, who passed the ball for him, and then jumped up and gave Chu Zhongtian a hard hug.

The rest of their teammates also rushed up to surround the two of them, and everyone celebrated the victory together, showing their determination.

In this game, Hoffenheim must get the right to qualify!

"Hoffenheim, who are one goal ahead, are in a dominant position at the moment. United will surely regret not scoring during that period of time when they were dominant......," said the England commentator, who looked a little frustrated.

※※※ "Good job! Ha ha! "In an ordinary pub in Wimbledon, a small town southwest of London, the British capital, cheers and applause rang out.

This is the Wimble Bar, and the people gathered here are all here to watch Chu Zhongtian's game.

"The breakthrough is so beautiful! Fast and simple! ”

In the stands on the television, the cheers continued.

Cornelia was leading the Hoffenheim fans, shouting the names of Chu Zhongtian and Salihovic to show their gratitude and support.

On the other side, Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson was furious at the goal, he jumped up from his seat, stomped his foot hard, cursed in anger and walked back in a circle, he didn't do it all at once, but stood there complaining to his assistant coach Whelan: "We have a problem defensively, damn it!" Fletcher's defense is nothing short of amateurish! ”

Whelan couldn't say anything in the face of the angry old man, so he could only nod silently.

Next door, Rangnick and his men hugged excitedly, and Hoffenheim's bench became a sea of joy as everyone left their seats and rushed to the sidelines to celebrate the goal.

After losing away to CSKA Moscow, Hoffenheim once raised doubts about their dark horse quality. And this ball, but the color on their bodies is even darker......
