A lot of people are criticising Ronaldinho, and it feels like Barcelona lost to Manchester City because Ronaldinho didn't play well.

But in reality, Ronaldinho did not get even a minute of playing time in the first leg.

Perhaps the expectations are too high, the disappointment is too great, there is no doubt that Ronaldinho is one of the biggest stars in the world, although everyone knows that his recent form has declined, and he has not played for Barcelona for half a year, but he will be expected by many people as soon as he plays.

Now Ronaldinho's performance has not met many people's expectations.

However, on the field, many people have a different opinion.

Wansheng is one of them.

Wan Sheng has been standing on the sidelines since the start of the second half, watching the game between the two teams carefully, and he has noticed Ronaldinho's performance due to Morris's several defensive defenses against Bloomer.

It is clear that the two are still under a lot of pressure against Ronaldinho.

That's pretty impressive.

Needless to say, Brummer and Morris's defensive coordination against a single player is not easy for some well-known stars to perform against Brumer alone, let alone add a Morris.

But Brummer alone simply can't limit Ronaldinho, and Morris needs to constantly cooperate to pinch the defense in order for the defense to work.

This shows that Ronaldinho's state is not as bad as he imagined.

In fact, Morris and Brummer are indeed under a lot of defensive pressure, and Ronaldinho puts more pressure on them than on Messi.

Messi is only technically good, while Ronaldinho is technically good and experienced, and his physical confrontation ability is much better than Messi.

That's the best players in the world.

Comparatively, Morris is actually no worse than Ronaldinho, but Morris is the defensive side, and the defensive side is always passive.

Sandwiched between Morris and Brummer, Ronaldinho is still working hard and he hopes he can perform and fight back against the media and fans who have criticised him.

At a time when many people have lost hope, Nardinho still insists, even if he can find a gap, an opportunity, he will not give up.

At this point, the Brazilians were thinking about the game.

Even Ronaldinho knows very well that Barcelona has no chance, but he still insists on it, just to prove that he still maintains his form and is still the world footballer who once led Barcelona to win the Champions League.

Finally, in the 84th minute, Ronaldinho saw an opportunity.

After the ball was tackled at Iniesta's feet, Ronaldinho sprinted quickly and snatched the ball back from the feet of Ivan Crewe.

The format of the competition has taken a sharp turn!

The Manchester City fans who cheered from the crowd suddenly began to worry about their own goal.

After Ronaldinho grabbed the ball, he changed direction a little and shook off Brummer, and then faced the defense of Ivan Crewe and Morris and Brummer behind him, he used a passing action, deceived two people, and kicked the ball through the gap, in an almost impossible situation, Ronaldinho shook off Morris, caught up with the ball and rushed directly into the penalty area.

"Look at this ball...... This ball...... Xiao Luo! Xiao Luo! ”

Belbart exclaimed in surprise on the stadium broadcast.

Ronaldinho had already dribbled into the penalty area, and in the face of Dunn's interception, he picked the ball up with his toes, which made Dunn confused, but the next moment, Ronaldinho swung his right foot sideways.

Volley!

"Bang!"

The foot made a loud bang on contact with the football, and the ball almost slashed across the turf towards the goal.

Wang Xiaolei wanted to save, but the ball was too fast.

He almost watched as the ball flew over the goal line from his side.

3 to 1!

Ronaldinho helps Barcelona get a goal back!

The media and fans at the scene were stunned to watch the goal, and everyone was amazed by the goal!

However, the goal came too late.

It's like the Spanish commentator said after exclaiming the goal, "Even if Ronaldo helps Barcelona score a goal, it can't save anything, Barcelona is still two goals away, and with less than ten minutes of stoppage time, Barcelona has been eliminated early......"

The words of the Spanish narrator also represent a point of view.

If Ronaldinho had scored such a goal two years ago, almost all fans and media would have cheered and excited, even if they lost the game.

But now Barcelona has entered the era of Messi.

In Messi's era, Ronaldonho was like the redundant one in the team, because he was the core before, the number one team, the biggest big name, and his position was unshakable, so he became redundant, because under normal conditions, no one dared to say that he should be a substitute.

That's why Barcelona made a farce of 'Xiao Luo fake injury', obviously Ronaldinho was not injured, but Barcelona's official website announced that the Brazilian was injured, so as to 'straighten Messi'.

It's the same now.

When Ronaldinho scored, no one said anything except a few familiar teammates, not even the Barcelona fans were not interested, there was no goal celebration at all, and no Barcelona players went to pick up the ball and start over.

It's like Ronaldinho wasn't a Barcelona player, it wasn't their goal just now, and they gave up the game.

As a result, only a handful of Barcelona fans and Ronaldinho himself celebrated the goal.

There was no joy on Ronaldinho's face.

After scoring a goal, he raised his head to the sky and yelled, as if he wanted to vent all his suppressed emotions.

Then Ronaldinho looked at his teammates, at the Manchester City fans around the stadium, at the few applauding fans in the Barcelona supporters' stands, and he suddenly felt that he didn't belong to the team.

Barcelona, the team that left the most memorable impression on him.

He's been here since PSG made a name for himself, but that's all over now, and he's not the star of the team, he's been relegated to the bench so much that few people cheer for the goal.

What a goal!

Ronaldinho sighed, looking at his other teammates with mixed eyes, the only thing he knew was that it was time for him to leave.

――――

Ronaldinho's goal could not change the outcome of Barcelona's defeat.

3 to 1.

In less than ten minutes, it was not easy for Barcelona to recover two goals.

Through the goal just now, everyone felt the strength of Ronaldinho, he faced the defense of Morris, Ivan Crewe, and Brummer alone, still controlled the ball at his feet, and brought it into the box to score the ball.

Some players can't help but wonder what Ronaldinho would have been like two years ago. Then I have to sigh: "Worthy of the world footballer!" ”

But Ronaldinho is only one person after all, football is a sport of eleven people, and it is difficult to save the situation just because one person has a wonderful performance.

Barcelona launched a late onslaught at the cost of a shaky defence, and City scored again in the 91st minute.

Manchester City counter-attack is extremely fast!

It took just three kicks to get the ball from the back to the front, before Torres crossed Morris and gave Morris the final chance.

Morris shook off Marquis and singled out against goalkeeper Valdés to deliver the final blow with a push.

――――

"Maurice! Maurice! Maurice! ”

"In the final moments of the game, Morris helped Manchester City score another goal, and the score became 4-1 over the two legs!"

The winner is decided!

Barcelona had already resigned themselves to their fate after Morris had scored, and the remaining time was not enough for them to score three goals against their team, let alone tie the score.

Barcelona fans watched quietly as the game ended.

They couldn't be quiet, as the City fans began to celebrate with excitement, and the whole stadium was filled with cheers of excitement.

Most of the Barcelona fans have already left the stadium early.

The stadium belongs entirely to Manchester City.

4-1, this result was cruel for Barcelona, and the Spanish media who supported Barcelona did not speak because they felt that they had lost badly, and they could not even find any reason.

In the first leg, Manchester City won 0-2 at Camp Nou.

Back at home, Manchester City won 2-1 again.

What is there to say?

What other excuses can be made?

Barcelona were beaten over two legs, and from the first minute of the match, they couldn't find a reason to support Barcelona to win.

The only voices left were congratulations and praise for Manchester City.

"It's game over!"

"Manchester City eliminated Barcelona 4-1 over two legs to reach the final of the Champions League! For the first time in their history, Wan Sheng led the team and made new history again! ”

'Tomorrow's other game, Manchester United and Chelsea, will decide who City will face in the final, but this night belongs to Manchester City and they can get ready to go to Moscow......

――――

The game is over, the enthusiasm at the Manchester stadium is still undiminished, and the fans in the audience are celebrating excitedly.

As early as a few months ago, many fans thought that Manchester City could play well in the Champions League, but what is the standard of 'good results'?

Naturally it's better than last season.

Manchester City reached the quarter-finals last season, so this season they will definitely be in the semi-finals!

When the team reached the last four, the fans began to look forward to the final again, even if the opponent was Barcelona, they were confident that the team would reach the final, because the manager was ...... Wansheng!

"Wan Sheng said that he should strive for all the championships he can win this season! I'm sure he can do it! ”

There is not only one fan who has such confidence in Wansheng, who has never disappointed Manchester City fans in three seasons, so they have full confidence that Manchester City will play well in the Champions League.

However, when the moment came to see the team knock out Barcelona, Manchester City fans were still excited.

Champions League final!

This is the most glorious moment in Manchester City's 100-year history!

The thought of witnessing the team's most glorious moment in 100 years makes everyone excited and they celebrate to reach the final.

On the pitch, Manchester City players were also celebrating.

Knocking out Barcelona in this final is just a ticket to Moscow, but just being in the Champions League final is already worth the excitement, how many teams want to reach the final but can't?

It's like the lost Barcelona, they worked hard for a season and finally fell.

Manchester City succeeded.

Man City are the winners, or rather, they are the winners, so every one of them is very excited.

The players on the bench, the coaches and the club's staff have all rushed into the pitch, hugging each other and cheering constantly.

Wan Sheng stood in the crowd, and he smiled happily.

Once the team has passed the Barcelona hurdle, they are one step closer to the goal.

There are only two finals left this season.

Both finals were civil wars in England, and he was confident that the title was already in sight.

――――

In the post-match press conference, Wan Sheng did not say anything about Barcelona.

City have won and the victory is the best proof of this, he has to maintain his demeanor and there is no need to taunt the losers.

The British press regretted this.

In terms of European football, Spain is also a strong competitor of England, and now there is an opportunity to attack the opponent, but the 'leading' figures do not speak, and whatever they say, it seems to become boring.

As a result, the perspective of the British media has also turned to China.

The next day, in the UEFA Champions League semi-finals, Manchester United and Chelsea play at Stamford Bridge, with Chelsea hosting Manchester United.

This match was seen as Grant's 'battle of proof'.

Since becoming Chelsea manager, Grant has been questioned, but Chelsea's results are actually not bad, the Israeli led the team to a solid third place in the league, and the Champions League also reached the semi-finals, equaling the best result led by Jose Mourinho, but the media and fans did not recognize his ability to lead the team, and many people thought that Grant relied on luck to play a good result.

Former manager Jose Mourinho is one of them.

Jose Mourinho has been on a year's hiatus and the biggest news of recent times has been his signing with Inter Milan, who have confirmed that Mourinho will take charge next season.

That's when the British media came.

With Grant expected to become the first Chelsea manager to reach a Champions League final, it will be interesting to see what his predecessor thinks.

"I'm not going to be jealous." Mourinho, who was on holiday in the Algarve, replied.

Just a week earlier, Chelsea had beaten Manchester United in the league and a draw in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final at Old Trafford, and Grant had a good run of results, but Mourinho took the credit for it.

Jose Mourinho believes that even if Chelsea beat Manchester United to reach the final, it is not really a big deal, and that does not mean that Grant is better than he is.

"I won't be jealous of him, because he uses all my stuff."

Some media reporters mentioned that in this season's Champions League, Grant can be regarded as Chelsea's benefactor.

The Israelis were in the reins at steam after a precarious group stage draw at home to Norway's Rosenborg, before Grant led the team to a comeback in the following rounds to not only retain their right to qualify, but also to beat Olympiacos and Liverpool in the knockout rounds until they forced United into trouble.

But Mourinho doesn't see it that way.

Chelsea's Champions League campaign this season is based on good luck, better than when he led the team: 'We have faced Barcelona three seasons in a row, and last season we played the group stage against Barcelona, then we met Porto in the knockout rounds, another European champion, then Valencia and finally Liverpool. Now that Chelsea are getting better, isn't there any luck in that? ”

Jose Mourinho did not forget to remind his successor that "this is just a result of standing on his own shoulders. ”

Grant certainly didn't want to hear those words.

Even though Chelsea are now using Jose Mourinho's 'stay' tactics and his players are mostly focused on the Portuguese, he wants to prove that his management has been successful.

So he has to lead the team to knock out Manchester City.

Leading Chelsea to the final of the Champions League is the best proof of his success.

Grant thinks so, and says so to the media, and hearing his words, even the harsh media can't help but look up to the Israelis.

After all, Chelsea's opponent is Manchester United!

Even if the first leg is a bit 'cheap' at Old Trafford, it is not easy to eliminate Manchester United.

However, what most people, including Wan Sheng, did not expect was that after an up-and-down extra-time game, Chelsea finally beat Manchester United 3-2 and eliminated the Red Devils 4-3 on aggregate to advance to the Champions League final for the first time in history.

Chelsea, who reached the semi-finals three times in the previous four years but missed out on three occasions, finally managed to qualify for the third time after being eliminated from the semi-finals of the Champions League twice in a row.

Chelsea played very well in this game.

After the opening, the whole Chelsea team showed very high morale and good competitive form, and frequently caused killings in front of Manchester United's goal.

After a tireless effort, Chelsea finally paid off in the 35th minute when Kalou's powerful shot was saved by Edwin van der Sar and Didier Drogba fired a powerful shot into the near corner from 12 yards on the right side of the box.

1 to 0!

Chelsea take the lead!

At the start of the second half, United launched a frantic comeback.

In the 59th minute, Wayne Rooney fired a low shot into the bottom right corner from inside the box to help United equalise the score.

Since the score of the two teams in the first leg was also 1:1, after 90 minutes, the two sides had to go into extra time.

The real excitement of the game came in extra time.

In the 97th minute, Essien's powerful shot was disallowed, and less than two minutes later, Ballack was brought down in the box to award a penalty and Frank Lampard converted it widely.

Chelsea extended their lead in the 104th minute when Didier Drogba fired a shot into the near corner from the six-yard box to make it 3-1.

Although in the 118th minute, Cech saved Cristiano Ronaldo's long-range shot to save a point for Manchester United, but the Red Devils, who were already completely overwhelmed in morale, failed to pull off a comeback miracle in the end.

The moment the final whistle blew, Chelsea boss Grant fell to his knees on the sidelines with excitement, and behind the Israelis was a sea of boiling blue.

――――

The match was talked about for a long time by the media fans, and the TV commentator finally excitedly announced, "Chelsea beat Manchester United to reach the Champions League final, and they will face Manchester City at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow!" ”

Wan Sheng was stunned for a long time when he heard the news.

In my memory, this season's Champions League final was a duel between Chelsea and Manchester United, and because of his arrival, Manchester City intervened, and Chelsea met Liverpool in advance, and after beating Liverpool, they met Manchester United in advance.

But in Wansheng's mind, the current Chelsea and Manchester United are put together, whether it is history, strength or state, it should be Manchester United who wins the final victory.

After knocking out Barcelona, Wan Shengdu is already dreaming of snatching Manchester United's Champions League trophy in Moscow.

Can now?

Chelsea are in the final!

What a surprise!

In addition to being surprised, Wan Sheng has a little regret, he is looking forward to a meeting with Manchester United, and wants to steal another title from Manchester United before leaving Manchester City.

What I didn't expect was that Manchester United was out of the tournament early?

They even lost the chance to reach the final, so they didn't grab it or not.

Wan Sheng suddenly found that his little butterfly seemed to have grown up, and the wings of agitation were more violent, and under his influence, not only Manchester City became very strong, but other teams were also greatly affected, and the results of some important games were changed.

He could only smile wryly.

From now on, a lot of the memories of his past life have lost their effect, and he has changed too many things, but this change is also good, at least in the direction he wants.

"Will it always be like this?"

Wan Sheng thought.

As the most ordinary Chinese fan in his previous life, and as an internationally renowned head coach in this life, Wan Sheng's most hopeful thing is actually the development of Chinese football.

Chinese football has always been criticized by the majority of fans, and it has indeed disappointed fans again and again.

Now here he comes.

He has the ability to change, and how much he can change depends on how well he does.

Wan Sheng is not a saint.

He just hopes to make some changes as much as he can, such as cultivating some outstanding players, so that China can have more capable players, so that the majority of Chinese fans have some hope in their hearts, but for him personally, it is difficult to accept some unreasonable requirements.

It's like this document in hand......

The Chinese Football Association once again sent an invitation, hoping that he could take charge of the Chinese national team at the end of the season.

Wan Sheng couldn't understand why the Chinese Football Association did this, he had refused twice in a row, obviously expressing his attitude of not wanting to coach the Chinese national team, but the Chinese Football Association still issued a third invitation.

This is...... Liu Bei looked at the grass house?

The problem is that he is not Zhuge Liang, and now there is no way to support the 'nothing' Chinese team to play a piece of the sky, and is the Chinese Football Association Liu Bei? Can they completely delegate power to themselves?

There are constraints from above, and there are no good players below, and they are not even eligible to participate in the World Cup.

Even if he is Zhuge Liang, it is not yet time to get out of the mountain! (To be continued.) )
