Chapter 91: Gain the respect of the Manchester United players!
At 4 p.m. on the 9th, at Stamford Bridge, the match between Chelsea and Fenerbahce began. After 90 minutes of hard-fought action, Chelsea won 2-0 and advanced to the semi-finals 3-2 on aggregate.
At the end of the match, the eyes of the world will be on Old Trafford, where the final semi-finalist team will be decided. Will it be the mighty Manchester United who slaughter Real Madrid at home, or will Real Madrid succeed in their comeback and advance to the semi-finals?
Fenerbahce won 2-1 at home in the first leg and was eliminated, not to mention that Real Madrid only won a draw at home, and the outside world is not optimistic about Real Madrid at all.
Sky Sports said: "Last season's quarter-finals, Manchester United slaughtered Roma 7-0 at home, and on that night the whole city of Manchester was in a frenzy. It was a good memory, and at noon today, Manchester United big man Wayne Rooney said in an interview with this station, 'We are ready, the only task tonight is to beat Real Madrid!' ’。
Morale was high throughout the team, with defender Rio Ferdinand saying, 'We're not going to give Don space to break through and shoot, no one can stop us from reaching the semi-finals!' ’。
We want the United to give us a win, preferably a relive last season's big win! ”
At half past six in the evening, Manchester United's bus drove into Old Trafford, and the old coach Sir Alex Ferguson led the Manchester United soldiers down the bus. The reporters who had been waiting here shouted loudly, but Sir Alex Ferguson ignored them and headed straight for the dressing room. A British journalist who has a good relationship with Ronaldo shouted: "Cristiano, how many goals are your goals for tonight?" ”
Cristiano Ronaldo, whose hair was meticulously combed, turned his head. Laughing and comparing a "two", he was handsome, and followed the army to the locker room.
The reporters were a little disappointed, it was supposed that Ferguson did not let the player be interviewed, and they pinned their hopes on Real Madrid. In the anxious waiting, the Real Madrid bus came, their emotions were high, and they must not go home empty-handed!
Schuster, dressed in a gray suit, stepped out of the bus and greeted reporters with a smile. But there was no intention of giving an interview. The reporters had no choice but to pin their last hope on Tang Jue.
Carry a sports bag on your back. Tang Jue followed behind Ribery and stepped off the bus. Numerous flashing lights flashed, and more than a dozen journalists, including Marca, As, and some French journalists, shouted at him.
Don did not refuse the enthusiasm of the reporters. Walk towards them. The journalists were very happy. Finally, I won't go home empty-handed.
"Sir Alex Ferguson is not prepared to send someone to watch you. What do you think about this? Joseph of the Paris Daily was the first to ask. As soon as the question was asked, the cacophony suddenly disappeared, and everyone was waiting for his answer.
Tang Jue had the usual confident smile on his face. "It's because Paul Scholes couldn't defend me in the last game, so he changed his defensive strategy and wanted to use more people to defend me," he said. There is no such thing as a perfect defence, any defensive strategy will have holes, and I am confident that I will lead the team to victory tonight. ”
"Mourinho gave a 'tactical theory' at his pre-match press conference in the afternoon. There are people who think that tactics are more important than stars, and there are people who disagree with this view, who do you agree with if stars are more important than tactics? ”
The reporter of Milan Sports News asked loudly.
As soon as Mourinho's tactical theory came out, it attracted the attention of many media outlets, and they had heated discussions in private. Milan Sport is going to do a feature, and obviously, as the most dominant striker of the day, Tang Jue's opinion is quite important. In their opinion, Tang is the star who is most likely to carry a team by himself since Maradona. And he has repeatedly stated in front of the media that he wants to follow the example of Maradona.
Tang did not hesitate and said with great certainty: "I don't support Mourinho's statement, I think the players are the foundation of football, and all tactics must be based on the ability of the players." ”
The reporter of Milan Sports News nodded, this was the answer he expected.
A reporter from the newspaper As: "Just now Cristiano said that he will score two goals tonight, how many goals will you score tonight?" ”
Tang Jue frowned slightly, and said: "Tonight is not a game for individual goals, but a game to decide who will advance." I'm not going to give myself a task, maybe I won't score a single goal, maybe I'll score three or four, but that's not the goal, my goal is to lead the team to the semi-finals. ”
Tang Jue's answer exceeded the reporter's expectations, he has been strong before, after scoring a hat-trick in the first four games of the season at the beginning of the season, he shouted that he would score a hat-trick in five consecutive games. In the Champions League quarter-finals, he made a bet with Johansen to score two goals in the first leg.
Now that they don't even talk about goals, the reporters are surprised. What does it mean that the British journalist was surprised and had a smile in his eyes? It shows that the ball bully does not hope for goals!
has been saying that he wants to lead the team to the semi-finals, but he doesn't dare to say that he can score, and the guy who has always been strong finally relented.
In the midst of the excitement, the British media reporters even began to write that in front of the mighty Manchester United, the football giants showed a lack of confidence before the game......
……
As night wore on, Manchester City began to get excited, with colourful lights coming on as they watched their men beat Real Madrid at home to reach the Champions League semi-finals. Manchester United have been strong this season, five points clear of Chelsea at the top of the Premier League and no surprise they will win the Premier League.
They remained strong in the Champions League, topping their group and knocking out Ligue 1 giants Lyon in the quarter-finals. In the first leg of the quarter-finals, they took away not only a draw but also an away goal at the Bernabeu. Chelsea are ahead of them, and their men are not far behind!
What an exciting win over Real Madrid, who have the most valuable player in the world!
Ticketed fans, calling friends and wearing Manchester United's red shirts, were there to witness the team's home win over Real Madrid. At seven o'clock, the Old Trafford stadium was full!
The players from both sides warmed up and headed towards the dressing room where they had to make their final preparations. Manchester United fans are starting to get busy, and they want to build the devil's stadium.
……
Home team dressing room.
Sir Alex Ferguson exclaimed: "We have only one goal tonight, and that is to win against our opponents!" ”
"Countless fans are waiting for us to give them a satisfactory answer, and we can't let them down!"
There is a burning fighting spirit in the eyes of Manchester United soldiers!
After boosting morale, he began to arrange specific tactics, and finally said: "Don must not be allowed to run at speed, countless facts have proved that once he runs, it is difficult to contain." Once he gets the ball, no matter where he is, the people around him must come forward to block it! ”
Away team locker room.
Schuster looked at his players and said in a deep voice: "I know that the opponent is strong, and the situation is more favorable than ours, and some people will even have despair. ”
Yaya Toure blushed and said in frustration when the news of Chelsea's 2-0 home win over Fenerbahce came in the afternoon: 'Ah...... Our end is sealed! ”
The Real Madrid coach continued: "The first leg was 1-1, forcing us to attack tonight, we have no way out, and if we don't attack, it will definitely be a dead end. ”
His waist suddenly straightened, and he said loudly: "Since there is no way out, then, tonight, we have to let the world see what Real Madrid looks like when it swears to the death!" ”
"Believe you're the best player in the world, it's time to show your ambitions!"
"Real Madrid's illustrious history is waiting for us to add to it!"
Nine glittering Champions League trophies are the foundation of Real Madrid's pride in Europe, and tonight is a life-and-death battle for the Champions League. The Real Madrid players, encouraged by the coach, looked pale and burned with a raging fire in their hearts!
Tang Jue stood up and said loudly: "Brothers! The 10th Champions League trophy is just around the corner, and we can't afford to fall halfway! ”
When it comes to the Champions League trophy, Thierry Henry is the most hungry, his career has come to an end, and he left Arsenal just to get the coveted Big Ears Cup. At this time, his eyes were bright, and a band-aid was attached to his left eyebrow bone, indicating that his injuries had not fully healed.
Henry stood up and said loudly, "Brothers! Tonight's game...... It's not that you're dead...... It's my life! ”
……
At 7:20 a.m., the starters appeared in the tunnel of the players. Rooney walked up when he saw Tang Jue, and the two hugged each other.
"I was interviewed by three British media outlets after the last game and I praised you in front of them. Who knows they didn't publish my praise at all. ”
Rooney shook his head and said.
Tang Jue smiled and said, "I have a grudge against them, this is normal. ”
Rooney thought for a moment and said, "After the game, as the host, I invite you to drink." ”
Tang Jue raised his eyebrows, it seems that his character is good, first Ronaldo, and now Rooney has also begun to invite.
"Cristiano has sent out an invitation, so let's get together when the game is over and I'll call Henry and Ribery." Tang Jue said with a smile.
Rooney thought for a moment and said, "Okay! ”
After Rooney left, Ronaldo, Park Ji-sung, Scholes and others came up, and they hugged Tang Jue one by one. It seemed that they were quite positive about his rejection of the penalty.
Yaya Toure, who was not far behind Don Jue, was surprised in his eyes, and his heart was shaken: Don was respected by the Manchester United players?
A wave of pride rose from the bottom of Yaya Toure's heart, and his waist was raised a few points!
Ribery's scar on his face flashed red, as if he had the respect of the Manchester United players. That's right, it wasn't long before the Manchester United players came over and hugged the Real Madrid players. Ribery and the others felt the respect of each other!
Rio Ferdinand communicated with Thierry Henry, and in the last game, his elbow caused Henry to leave the pitch.
The four referees looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. Tonight is a battle of life and death, and as referees on duty, they are under heavy pressure. I thought that the players of the two teams would be tense, but who knew that the atmosphere would be so good.
If the reporters saw this scene, they would be surprised! (To be continued......)
