What ball king, call me ball god

Chapter 307 The King of Europe

At the 7th minute of the game, the situation on the field suddenly changed dramatically.Originally, Paris Saint-Germain was in control of the ball. After receiving a precise pass from goalkeeper Navas, their left back Bernat took a few steps forward with the ball confidently.However, at this critical moment, Croatia's attacking core Perisic quickly approached Bernat, preparing for close marking.

However, what is quite surprising is that Bernat seems to have no intention of passing the ball.After taking the ball for a few steps, he did not choose to pass the ball to his teammates or shoot, but continued to move forward.This situation caught the eye of Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Paredes, who immediately realized the danger was approaching.Paredes had quick eyes and quick hands and shouted "Quick pass!" to remind Bernat to pass the ball as quickly as possible to avoid being intercepted by the opponent.

At the same time as Paredes issued a warning, Perisic rushed forward without hesitation, his goal was to grab the ball.He used a sliding tackle to steal the ball cleanly from Bernat's feet. The whole process was smooth and natural.

"This is Manchester United's pressing ability, Bernat is too trustworthy!" Zhan Jun said excitedly.

At the same time, after Perisic intercepted the ball, he looked up and observed the situation in the penalty area, and immediately made a long pass.

Lin Kedi in the penalty area jumped up high and shook his head to attack the goal, but it was a little too high and missed the crossbar.

"In the first 8 minutes, Manchester United's two offensive threats were very big. There were already two shots. Paris is now a bit under pressure. This ball belongs to Paris, and Paris should control the ball!" Commentator Guest Zhang Lu analyzed the situation on the court.

In this transition of offense and defense, since Navas had been clearly warned by the referee before, he did not choose to delay the game time again.The goalkeeper quickly and accurately threw the ball to Krell on the right. The route of this pass was obviously different from the previous one.

In previous games, Navas often used this kind of precise and quick passing to break down the opponent's defense, but this time, he changed his strategy.Instead of handing the ball to Bernat as usual, he chose to pass the ball to the right back Krell.This decision was of course due to Bernat's mistake just now. In order to ensure stability, Navas would naturally not pass the ball to Bernat.

After taking possession of the ball, Krell quickly and accurately passed the ball to Herrera in the right midfield position.Herrera's professional position in the past has been as an attacking midfielder. However, as the game progressed, his position gradually moved back.Although his physical fitness is not outstanding, his fighting spirit and desire to win are unmatched.No matter in the moment of transition between offense and defense, or in the process of advancing with the ball, he showed his excellent running ability and full court coverage with an all-out attitude.

When he received Krell's pass, Herrera pushed forward without hesitation.He is skilled in dribbling and can use flexible running and appropriate physical confrontation to break through the opponent's defense and create threatening offensive opportunities.During the advancement process, he can also accurately send passes based on the game situation and the position of his teammates, creating a situation that is conducive to the team's offense.

These various advantages allowed him to firmly occupy a main position in Paris after leaving Manchester United and coming to Paris.

However, facing Manchester United's midfield pressing and strangulation tactics, it is obvious that Herrera will have a hard time withstanding it.

When Herrera took the ball and brought it forward, the two attacking midfielders De Jong and Bentancur immediately pressed forward. One left and one right, one in front and one behind, pounced on him.

Herrera was restricted to the left and right passing routes. At this time, he knew that he had to play the ball quickly. Passing backwards was a relatively safe option, but Herrera didn't want to do this. He felt that Paris had been restricted so much in the opening. After a long time, it must be passed forward.

The one in front of Paris was Mbappe, so he stuffed the ball without hesitation.

It's a pity that Mbappe is not a center player at all. His back-up ability is very poor. Just when he was about to get the ball with his back, Guimarães immediately got up and stabbed him with his foot. At this time, it was already De Jong, who was in position, got the ball head-on, without turning around, and kicked it with his heel. Bentancur got the ball, and then immediately passed it to Rashford on the left. Manchester United's counter-attack pass action It's done in one go, like clouds and flowing water.

Rashford immediately accelerated to break forward after taking the ball. At this time, Krell was not far away from Rashford. He immediately rushed up and tried to intercept Rashford.

However, Rashford had already started to speed up. Facing the onrushing Krell, he moved the ball forward, made a mistake, and accelerated past the reckless Krell.

Krell was immediately left behind.

At this time, there was only a large gap in front of Rashford.

Tuchel shouted excitedly on the sidelines: "Get back on defense!"

At this time, Marquinhos had already ran sideways, preparing to block Rashford and prevent him from cutting inside.

Marquinhos was very fast, but he ran over in a diagonal direction after all. Although he was fast, Rashford continued to take the ball for two steps and then passed directly.

At this time, Lin Kedi retreated to the front of the penalty area.

Lin Kedi easily removed the ball with his chest, and then volleyed when Thiago Silva stepped forward to block it.

But after all, the shot was rushed, the angle and intensity were not very great, and Navas punched it out with both fists.

But the bottom line was hit, so Manchester United got a corner kick.

"It's been 10 minutes since the opening. Manchester United has already had three shots and one chance for a corner kick. But now, Paris rarely even goes out for halftime. This is really a huge contrast!"

Manchester United's height advantage in the penalty area is very obvious, with many tall players, which gives them a unique advantage when fighting for headers and carrying out high-altitude bombing.However, relatively speaking, Paris Saint-Germain's performance in air defense is quite weak, and it seems difficult to resist Manchester United's high-altitude threat.

In the corner kick tactics, Paris Saint-Germain's defensive power was almost entirely concentrated on Lin Kedi, and his actions were closely monitored.This strategy fully illustrates the important position of Lin Kedi in Manchester United's offense, and it also adds a layer of pressure to Paris' defense.

After the corner kick was taken, as expected, the target was Lin Ke.Although Lin Kedi is tall and strong, his header was not fully effective this time, and the ball was weakly confiscated by Navas.This result made the Paris defense breathe a sigh of relief, and Navas's outstanding performance also won them a precious breathing space.

However, Navas did not intend to continue to delay the rhythm of the game. He was eager to quickly launch an offensive through a quick throw.So, he accurately threw the ball to Neymar outside the penalty area.At this time, there are only two Paris Saint-Germain players on the edge of the penalty area, namely Neymar and Mbappe, while other players are assisting in defense in the penalty area or preventing the opponent's secondary attack on the edge of the penalty area.

The two attackers waited nervously on the outside for an opportunity to counterattack.Finally, they waited for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fight back.Neymar sprinted forward as soon as he received the ball, his speed was staggering.However, at this time, Manchester United's defensive formation was already very tight in their own half, and other players quickly returned to defense, preparing to deal with Paris' counterattack.

Neymar relied on his excellent dribbling skills and quick breakthroughs to reach the rib area directly.However, at this time, Manchester United had reacted quickly and formed a three-person double-team situation.Dalot, De Ligt and De Jong tightly surrounded Neymar to prevent him from going deeper.The other Manchester United players performed their duties and quickly returned to their positions to maintain good formation in order to deal with Barcelona's next attack.

In this process, Manchester United's defensive system appeared to be very strict and tacit.When Guimarães saw that Dericht needed to cover up the defense, he did not hesitate to temporarily retreat to the defense line and block Dericht's place.

At the same time, Lin Kedi immediately chased back and quickly returned to defense.He stood at the front of the penalty area, accurately joined the defense line, joined Guimarães, and formed a new defense line with the original defense line.This adjustment made Manchester United's defense more stable and changed the three central defenders into four defenders, fully preparing for the next defense.

"Look, this is the difference! When Manchester United suffered an offensive counterattack, not only did the defensive players in their positions stick to their positions, but other players immediately returned to defend and help defend. In this way, Neymar was surrounded - and even if Now Neymar forcibly passes the ball to Mbappe in the center, but Mbappe has no chance to kick the ball because the center is also densely populated - look! Link intercepted the ball!"

Mbappe originally received a pass from Neymar and wanted to break through and shoot directly from the center. As a result, after receiving the ball, the opposite defense stood very tight, and as soon as he got the ball, Link immediately rushed up.

Link's speed was staggering. He galloped on the grass like lightning, and he quickly approached Mbappe in just two steps.With indescribable agility, he cut the ball from Mbappé's feet before he even noticed it.This instant change made people admire Lin Kedi's speed and decisiveness.

After Mbappe lost the ball, his expression instantly became extremely shocked.He immediately tried to turn around and pull Lin Kedi away, but he only had time to catch Lin Kedi's fast-moving back.Lin Kedi was like a bolt of lightning, sprinting forward quickly and resolutely, while quickly passing the ball to Perisic on the right.

Even though Mbappe was unwilling, it was too late to catch up.

Bernat, who faced Perisic, immediately took action. He stayed close to his opponent and tried to wash away his previous mistakes with active defense.

Although the mistake just now did not result in Paris conceding a goal, it made Bernat lose face.Now that Manchester United is concentrating its firepower on his side, he naturally has to defend with all his strength to avoid any further mistakes.

Perisic's speed advantage was fully demonstrated when facing Bernat.However, Perisic was not satisfied with this simple way of playing.Today, Manchester United is using the 3241 tactic and has five players in the frontcourt, which means they have a numerical advantage.Therefore, Perisic decided to exploit this advantage even more deeply.He took the initiative to move forward, further closing the distance between himself and Perisic.Immediately afterwards, he skillfully used the outside instep of his left foot to accurately pass the ball to De Jong.This precise pass not only showcased Perisic's excellent skills, but also took full advantage of Manchester United's large number of people in the frontcourt.

Bernat obviously didn't expect Perisic to do this. After all, when Perisic approached Bernat just now, Bernat was already ready. He was about to steal the ball. He thought Perisic must be Prepare to shake yourself off and break through.

But unexpectedly, Perisic passed the ball to De Jong.

In front of De Jong, Paris' three midfielders have already retreated in front of the defense.

Therefore, Paris's defense line now has more people than before.

However, from De Jong's point of view, his only target was Link. As for the other defensive players, he first shook off Paredes' sliding tackle, made a forward pass, and then suddenly sent the ball forward. .

That position was a small gap, but when De Jong's ball passed, Lin Kedi was already in place, smoothly received the ball, and then pushed the ball forward with his right foot, directly breaking into the penalty area.

"Lin Ke Enemy! Entering the restricted area!" Zhan Jun shouted excitedly.

The closest people to Lin Kedi in the penalty area were not the two central defenders of Paris, but the defensive midfielder Marquinhos who retreated into the penalty area. Marquinhos reached out to block Lin Kedi's shoulder.

But this is a bit wishful thinking. Marquinhos is a full 8 centimeters shorter than Link. In addition, his physical fitness is far inferior to that of Link. To reach out to block Link's shoulder is just wishful thinking. Link The opponent was not blocked at all and was squeezed away by Lin Kedi. Then Paris central defender Kim Pembe immediately retreated to the small penalty area. He lowered his center of gravity with his hands behind his back to prevent Lin Kedi from shooting suddenly.

And Thiago Silva was close to Linke, ready to steal the ball. Next to him, Herrera also arrived in the penalty area. For a moment, Marquinhos, who was thrown away by Linke, and Linke were Bernat and Lin Ke on the enemy's right were already surrounded by five people.

"Oops - Paris returned very quickly this time. Five people were already outflanking Lin Ke's enemy. It seems that there is no -" Zhan Jun was a little regretful when he was talking, and suddenly -

Lin Kedi moved his left foot, trying to lunge to the left.

No matter how small a move is in the penalty area, it will attract a lot of attention.

Thiago Silva is no exception. If he were outside the penalty area, he would definitely not make a move when faced with such an obvious fake move by Lin Kedi. However, in the penalty area, he would not dare to gamble, just in case. Does Lin Kedi really want to shoot from this position?

Thiago Silva didn't dare to take a gamble, so he moved slightly decisively. Silva thought to himself that he had moved, but not very much. If Link's enemy was making a fake move, he could quickly respond. Position, if Lin Ke's opponent really wanted to shoot, he would just throw his body out to block the ball.

Seems like a best of both worlds idea.

But as everyone knows, Lin Kedi only needs this gap.

When Lin Kedi saw Thiago Silva start to move, he immediately pushed forward with his left foot. In such a small space in the penalty area, Lin Kedi pushed the ball forward, and Thiago Silva immediately pushed the ball forward. He thought that Lin Kedi was really going to shoot from this position, so he decisively moved his body over, but just as he moved, Lin Kedi's right foot seemed to be a magnet, and the ball arrived. Lin Kedi's right foot was positioned, and Lin Kedi swung his ankle and kicked out.

"Lin Kedi! He deceived Thiago Silva in the penalty area! Lin Kedi! He shot with a kick——"

Lin Kedi's shot in the crowd was thunderous in silence. Kim Pengbei, who was defending in the small penalty area, did not react in time and did not see the direction of the ball clearly. After Lin Kedi shot the ball, the ball It was almost flying into the net before Kimpembe shook his head to defend.

There were so many defensive players standing in front of goalkeeper Navas that Navas could not see the ball.

The sound of the ball rubbing against the net was heard clearly, and the referee's finger was in the circle.

"The ball went in - the ball went in! Lin Ke's goal opened the scoring! In the 16th minute, Manchester United led 1-0! It was our Lin Ke - the enemy who scored the goal!" Zhan Jun shouted excitedly .

On the court, after Lin Kedi saw the ball entering the net, before looking at the referee's gesture, Lin Kedi rushed forward, slid for a distance, stopped, knelt on the ground, opened his arms, and waved made an archery gesture.This action is his celebration of his goal and his catharsis of victory.At this time, his blood vessels bulged and the skin on his face turned red. This was the result of excitement and a reflection of his inner passion.

Afterwards, Lin Kedi stood up and opened his arms to greet his teammates who were running from all directions.They hugged each other, cheered and enjoyed the joy of scoring.

"Kevin Lin, this name has become a legend in the Champions League finals. In the past two seasons, he has incredibly scored in two consecutive Champions League finals, becoming the second player in the history of the Champions League to achieve this great feat. . This feat reminds people of Real Madrid legend Di Stefano, a superstar in the 50s who also scored in two Champions League finals. And now, Lin Kedi’s goal in the Champions League final The number has tied the record of 4 goals held by Ronaldo, ranking third in history behind the 7-goal final scoring record of Di Stefano and Puskas. And now this is only the final. 17th minute. The game is not over yet, the game has just begun!" Zhan Jun shouted excitedly.

"After scoring this goal, Lin Kedi's number of goals this season has reached 82 goals, which is a terrifying and unprecedented number. At the same time, his number of goals in the Champions League this season has also reached 18 goals. He is in After breaking the Champions League single-season scoring record this season, although there are a few fewer goals this season than last season, the record of No. 2 goals in the Champions League single season is still his!"

"At the same time, Lin Kedi has 38 assists this season. This number of assists not only makes Lin Kedi lead others and become the European assists king this season, but this number of assists is also the highest number of assists in a single season since this data has been collected. The player with the most times!”

"The most goals scored in a single season and the most assists in a single season. When these two statistics appear on the same person, you have to sigh, Lin Kedi - he is really a legend! Although he is only 19 years old, His terrifying statistics are already so terrifying that many people will struggle to catch up in their lifetimes!" Zhan Jun couldn't help but sigh.

On the court at this time, the Manchester United players were excited by Lin Kedi's magical performance. They celebrated each other, their faces filled with joy and pride.On the sidelines, Ten Hahe also hugged Mitchell excitedly because of Lin's performance.

Ten Hag and Mitchell watched Link on the court together, with emotion and relief on his face.He couldn't help but sigh: "Lin, judging from the current data, he has completely surpassed Messi and Ronaldo. In time, he will definitely become a legendary player!"

Mitchell smiled and said: "Yeah, Lin Kedi is only 19 years old now, and he has already achieved such a high level of achievement. It's really amazing! I'm really afraid that he will find it boring to retire before he is 30 years old!"

Hearing Mitchell's words, Ten Hahe also laughed.

Although both Ten Hag and Mitchell thought this was a joke, they also clearly recognized Lin's talent and talent.Lin Kedi's outstanding performance in the game has proved his talent on the football field.And judging from the current situation, Lin Kedi's career has just begun.Therefore, they believe that Lin Kedi's future will be even more brilliant!At the same time, judging from Lin Kedi's desire to win and self-discipline in the game, he will never choose to retire easily.

Back on the field, the referee had already walked over and reminded the celebrating players of Manchester United to pay attention to the time.

Lin Kedi and his teammates also walked back to their own half.

When passing by the Paris players, Lin Kedi could notice that the Paris players were looking at him.

That kind of look is very complicated. I have had that kind of look before. It was when I was still at Ajax and fell in the Champions League semi-finals, I shot the look at the then Real Madrid player.

But now, he is the one being watched.

time flies.

When Paris Saint-Germain restarted, the time had reached the 20th minute.

Mbappe stood in the center circle, waited for the referee to blow the whistle, and then kicked the ball out.

Then he rushed towards Manchester United's backcourt at a fast speed. It was obvious that Paris was preparing for a fast break.

After the ball was passed to the feet of Marquinhos, Marquinhos passed the ball directly to Di Maria on the right. Di Maria basically didn't get the ball in the first 20 minutes. Once he got the ball, he immediately He accelerated forward and rushed forward.

Although Di Maria has already passed his thirties, his skills and speed are not far from his peak state. This sudden acceleration broke through Rashford's defense.

In fact, the breakthrough of Rashford this time was expected by the Manchester United players. After all, Rashford's defense is indeed average.

Although Rashford's defense was average, he had a good attitude. After he was broken through, he immediately turned around and rushed forward, following Di Maria closely. Then Bentancur was broken through by Rashford. He had already retreated to fill his position before.

Guimarães moved directly laterally and made a sliding tackle, leaving the ball behind!
Facing the sliding tackle, Di Maria jumped up to avoid it, but the ball was kept. Rashford, who was following Di Maria, saw that the ball was still in place and immediately kicked it with his right foot. , kicked the ball to De Jong in the middle, De Jong took the ball, and the situation suddenly reversed.

At this time, Paris was aggressively attacking, and the defense was empty. Linke was at the front of the center circle, and Perisic was positioned further forward. So De Jong received the ball and made a long pass with his left foot to find Perisic in front of him. open space.

Perisic took the ball and avoided Bernat's sliding tackle, and went straight forward.

And Bernat's sliding tackle was a complete failure. He failed to keep anyone, nor the ball, but also left a large gap behind him.

When Lin Kedi saw such a scene, he naturally followed quickly.

There is an open space in front of Perisic. He strides forward. In front of him is Thiago Silva standing in front of the penalty area. Kimpembe has already stepped in to participate in the attack. Now he is rushing back frantically, but there is no time. Got it!
Perisic moved his left foot and rushed to the front of the penalty area. Thiago Silva knew that something was not good. At this time, whether to attack or not was a decision that had to be made.

Although Lin Kedi has moved as far as possible to the left, there is an open space in front of him. If Perisic passes the ball directly, Lin Kedi will directly face a half-sized empty goal.

But Perisic only had eyes for the goal at this time. Without waiting for Thiago Silva to react, he took a step to the left and then a step laterally. After opening up a little gap, he directly took off with his left foot and shot. .

But Perisic forgot one thing. Navas can be called a wall and father during his time at Real Madrid.Although he failed to save Lin Kedi's shot, that was normal. After all, he had scored against every goalkeeper Lin Kedi had faced. This was also a top-notch record.

At this time, Perisic felt that the timing was too good. He did not want to pass, but wanted to shoot by himself. To be honest, any forward player would have this idea, not to mention that Manchester United is currently leading 1-0.

So Perisic shot.

As for this shot, it seemed that Perisic had widened the angle, dodged the defender, and shot into the far corner. It should have been an excellent shot, but Navas chose to block the near corner and kept it. There was a huge gap in the far corner. When the ball was shot, many Manchester United fans watching the game at home were even ready to shout.

But a pair of hands appeared. Navas jumped up and saved with both hands. The ball was ruthlessly rejected by Navas.

Was saved from the bottom line.

"Oops - this ball! What a pity!" Zhan Jun couldn't help but sigh.

When Perisic saw the ball being saved, he put his head in his hands and looked in disbelief.

Lin Kedi was originally standing on the left waiting for the ball, but after seeing Perisic's movements, he knew that he was preparing to come by himself. When Perisic moved laterally, he first shook off Thiago Silva, and then made a move. After making the move to shoot into the far corner, Lin and his opponents thought that Perisic's goal was probably going to be scored.

But I didn't expect to be saved.

Lin Kedi also felt very sorry. After all, if the goal had been scored, Manchester United would have led 2-0.

But the ball was miraculously saved by Navas.

Lin Kedi turned to look at Perisic. Seeing that he was still holding his head in frustration, he walked over.

"It's okay! We still have a chance for a corner kick!"

When Perisic saw that it was Lin Kedi who was comforting him, he suddenly felt even more annoyed.He couldn't help but said: "Captain - I should have passed it to you just now. You will definitely score, but I - I didn't."

Lin Kedi saw that Perisic was a little depressed and immediately encouraged him: "It's okay. Navas is a good goal-line player. It doesn't matter if the goal is not scored. We are still leading 1-0! Don't be discouraged, we still have a chance. Corner kick opportunity!”

When Perisic heard Lin Kedi say "We are still leading 1-0", he felt a little better. He realized that he was not annoyed whether the team was leading or not, but he was annoyed that he did not score the goal. , he suddenly felt very ashamed. After all, Lin Kedi, who comforted him, had failed to score many times in the long process of a season, but Lin Kedi always got upset and recovered immediately, unlike himself, who was upset. So long!And Lin Kedi still considers it from the perspective of the team, and himself——

After all, Perisic is an experienced player. When he thought of this, he immediately changed his mind and started to attack the corner kick.

The same is naturally true for Lin Kedi.

"In the 25th minute, the second corner kick in the first half was still a chance for Manchester United. De Jong took the penalty! Oh - it came out, Lin Ke was double-teamed by many people! It was Bentancur who scored the ball ——Hey——it’s a pity that the top is off!”

After Bentancur pushed the ball out of the baseline, the ball returned to Paris' feet.

And now Paris Saint-Germain's head coach Tuchel is already worried.

Basically half of the first half has passed, but Paris didn't even have a threatening shot, and there were even very few half-time attempts.

Originally, I originally thought of attacking quickly and seizing opportunities for counterattacks, so as to maximize Mbappe's speed advantage in counterattacks. However, I did not expect that Manchester United's pressing ability is so strong. 3241's tactics are originally very fast in transitioning between offense and defense. In this final, Manchester United's offensive and defensive transitions were even more wonderful. The transition from defense to offense that ultimately led to a goal made even Tuchel, his opponent, endure. I can't help but want to applaud.

But returning to the present, Tuchel finds that there is really not much that Paris can do now.

What he originally thought was to attack quickly, seize the opponent's offensive opportunities and then counterattack, but now it seems that changes must be made.

"A thorough defensive counterattack, otherwise we will have no chance at all and will be forced by our opponents!"

Tuchel suddenly said this to the assistant coach.

The assistant coach looked at Tuchel in surprise.

You know, before the game, Paris president Nasser once asked Tuchel how he was going to deal with the enemy in the final. When he heard that Tuchel was going to seize the opportunity to counterattack, Nasser's face didn't look very good. .

At that time, Nasser directly expressed his hope to see Paris play offensive football, but Tuchel said back that "if they play offensive football in the final, Paris will definitely lose", Nasser could only agree.

But Nasser immediately told Tuchel at the time: "I hope you can understand that Paris Saint-Germain is one of Qatar's most important promotional windows. Winning the Champions League with beautiful football is of course our first pursuit, but if this If the pursuit cannot be achieved for the time being, then winning the Champions League is a completely alternative option. But - if you can't win in this way - then I don't want to see ugly football!"

In fact, what Nasser said is very clear. Of course, winning is the first priority, but if you can't win, don't play too ugly, otherwise you will lose and be embarrassed!

At that time, Nasser left directly after saying this.

But Tuchel immediately complained to his assistant coach after Nasser left: "What does it mean to not want to play ugly when you can't win? Does he understand football? In football, you don't know who will win and who will lose until the last moment. ! What if we are behind 0-1 in the final, can't we play defensive counterattack football in order to win? It's just a matter of one goal, how can we say that it is beautiful to play without seeing the hope of winning? What is this called? Words!"

Back to the present, Tuchel's idea is that Paris is only behind 0-1, and it is still very early before the end of the game. Paris has Neymar and Mbappe, so defensive counterattack is definitely an excellent tactical choice. When Manchester United mainly attacks, we will counterattack, so that Paris will have more opportunities.

So after he expressed his thoughts to the assistant coach, he immediately shouted to the players on the sidelines: "No. 2! The second set of tactics! The second set!"

Neymar, who was close to the sidelines, heard it immediately. His expression changed and he couldn't help but think: "A defensive counterattack so quickly? Now the first half is not even over!" During the meeting the day before the game, Picture Hull had already explained it. He said at the time: "I hope you don't hear the words second set of tactics in the finals. I also hope that everything goes well for us!"

But it is obvious that things are not going well now, and because the stadium is now playing in an empty field, Tuchel's shouting soon became known to the entire Paris team.

The whole Manchester United team heard it too.

Manchester United was well prepared. At first, they thought Paris was going to do something big, that they were going to risk their lives or something.

But after waiting for a while, it was discovered that Paris began to retreat and defend, waiting for Manchester United to attack.

"This is a defensive counterattack!" Mitchell said in surprise: "It's a bit early to start a defensive counterattack now."

Ten Hag said seriously: "They have top speed players like Neymar and Mbappe. If they really start a defensive counterattack, we really have to pay attention."

"Indeed, Mbappe is suitable for a style of play where there is space to rush forward. In positional battles, his role is not that big, but if there is an opening, his speed will really play a big role. And the strange thing is that Mbappe's shots after rushing up are much more reliable than his shots in positional battles." Mitchell analyzed.

"However, our offensive and defensive transitions are enough to cope with this kind of situation. However, we need to pay attention to substitutions in the second half, which will consume a lot of physical energy. Fortunately, there are 5 substitution places now."

Time passed by minute by minute.

Paris Saint-Germain really started to defend and counterattack.

Manchester United was not in a hurry and slowly organized an attack. The ball was exchanged between the two teams several times, but in the end it was Manchester United who controlled the ball in the remaining 15 minutes of the first half.

With Paris retreating to defend like this, Manchester United's offense was indeed difficult to withstand. In 15 minutes, there were three shots, but only one shot on target. This time the shot came from Lin Kedi.

"Beep-"

With the referee's whistle, the first half of the game ended.

"The first half of the game was really exciting! In the first 25 minutes, Manchester United firmly controlled the situation. In the end, Lin Kedi scored a wonderful goal. In the next 20 minutes, Paris Saint-Germain directly The tactics were changed from the offensive tactics at the beginning to the defensive counterattack tactics. However, in the rest of the first half, Paris had no chance to counterattack. Instead, it was always suppressed in its own half. Now in the first half The game is over and Tuchel needs to make some adjustments during the halftime break!"

"For Manchester United, the transition between offense and defense in the first half also took a lot of physical energy. In the second half of the game, personnel adjustments will definitely be needed."

Halftime, in the Manchester United dressing room.

Although the team members were silent, some were relaxing with their eyes closed, and some were eating energy bars, bananas and other energy-supplementing things, the overall atmosphere was uplifting and joyful.

When Ten Hag walked into the locker room, he pulled the tactical board and looked at the players.

"Today's game was okay. It was not as difficult as the semi-final game, so I will just say a few words. First of all, in the second half, the transition between offense and defense must be in place, so I will start to make changes in the 60th minute. People, maybe earlier. I will leave one substitution until the end in case there are any special circumstances. Finally, what I want to say is - boys, obviously, we won the Champions League today It’s time, so—everyone cheer up and win this championship in the second half!”

Ten Hag's words were also very simple. He cheered up his teammates and that was the end.

The team members then took a rest.

10 minutes later, there are still 2 minutes left before the start of the second half.

Lin Kedi stood up, his figure looking tall and firm in the lights of the locker room.The surrounding teammates immediately gathered around. They formed a tight circle and put their hands on each other's shoulders, forming a united and determined front.

Lin Kedi looked at them, his deep eyes burning with passion.He said loudly: "Just four days ago, I said the same thing here, but our mentality is completely different from now. At that time, we were still working hard for the league ranking, and now, we are about to usher in a new season. A decisive game. In 45 minutes we can lift that trophy, the Champions League trophy that Manchester United touched 12 years ago."

He paused, his eyes lingering on the faces of each teammate for a while, as if he wanted to engrave their determination and belief deeply into his heart.

"Manchester United, this club has won the Champions League three times in its history and we will be the ones on the podium for the fourth time. We are the history of Manchester United, we are that quarter of great history, we He is a player who will be remembered by future generations! We will become legends of Manchester United."

His voice became even more passionate, and every word hit the team members' hearts like a hammer.

"So - brothers, let's win this game, win it without any suspense! In 45 minutes, we will lift the trophy on that court. I know, I believe, this is what we must do. of!"

His voice was like a huge wave in the wind, setting off a wave of heat.The teammates gathered tightly together, their eyes were firm and hot, as if they had seen the trophy waving to them.Everyone shouted together——

"champion!"

"champion!"

"champion!"

Then push the door out.

The second half of the game begins!
At the beginning of the second half, Paris Saint-Germain kicked off. Mbappe stood in the center circle. After hearing the referee's whistle, he kicked the ball to Marquinhos, and he ran forward slowly.

However, Lin Kedi noticed that Neymar did not move forward. Not only Neymar, but Di Maria also did not run forward. The two wings of Paris stood below the center line.

Manchester United, on the other hand, didn't care what happened to Paris, they just pressed forward and pressed on.

The first one to bear the brunt was Lin Kedi. He immediately rushed forward in front of Marquinhos. At this time, Marquinhos kicked the ball to Thiago Silva behind him. Lin Kedi rushed forward again. This time Thiago Silva gave the ball to Bernat on the left.

Perisic was already close before Bernat got the ball, and by the time he got the ball, Perisic was almost close.

Bernat learned the lesson from the first half, so as soon as he got the ball, he quickly released the ball and gave it to Paredes on his right.

After Paredes got the ball, he was about to raise his head to observe. In fact, he looked up and observed before catching the ball. He found that Mbappe was running too far ahead. If he wanted to pass the long ball, he would be in a hurry after receiving the ball. You need to look up and observe Mbappe's position.

But as soon as he raised his head, Paredes was startled, because De Jong was already right in front of him.

What shocked him even more was not this. Not only was De Rong approaching, but Lin Kedi was also approaching him.

Paredes panicked and was in a hurry. Both in front of him and on his right side were blocked by Manchester United players. In desperation, he did not dare to directly pass back to the defender for fear of being intercepted by Lin Ke. In a flash of lightning, Paredes Des could only rely on the usual path and kicked the ball back to Bernat.

And this kick put the blame on Bernat.

Because Perisic in front of Bernat had not left, and Paredes's pass in panic was not very accurate. When Bernat reacted to get the ball, Perisic He came up horizontally and blocked the ball directly with the arch of his right foot.

Then he moved forward and dodged Bernat directly.

Just when Perisic got the ball, Lin Kedi quickly moved forward and ran forward.

Perisic sent a through ball.

Lin Kedi's position at this time was on the right near the middle, and the middle position was actually unoccupied.

De Jong quickly ran to the center.

For the Paris defensive players, Lin Kedi's taking the ball must be a major concern, so as soon as Lin Kedi got the ball, Thiago Silva immediately approached, and Kimpembe also went to Lin Kedi's side. After moving, Paredes behind him and Bernat on Link's right and rear naturally came closer.

Lin Kedi was originally preparing to force a breakthrough along the right side of the penalty area, but he suddenly glanced out of the corner of his eye. In front of De Jong in the middle, there was only Kimpembe who was already close to his side, and Navas was also very close. Right goal.

It happened that Paredes was standing behind him on his left side and had not yet fully come over.

So Lin Kedi directly pulled the ball with his left foot and gave it another fierce push.

"Beautiful! Lin Kedi sent the ball out from the four-man double team and gave it to De Jong, who was unguarded in the middle! De Jong - De Jong dunked and shot again! Beautiful - the ball went in! Navas didn't Can save this ball! De Jong shot a long shot and broke the goal of Paris Saint-Germain. Manchester United scored another victory at the beginning of the second half. It is now 2-0! The Paris defense only focused on defending Lin Ke. But they didn't expect that Lin Kedi's passing skills were also top-notch! For this goal, Lin Kedi was able to skillfully send a pass while being surrounded by four people in a circle, and Paris Because all the defense lines were surrounding Lin Ke, De Jong's side was almost undefended. Even if Jin Pengbei reacted in time and wanted to pounce, he was stunned by De Jong with an easy dunk. Open, De Jong also had a long shot, and this long shot was used at the most suitable time and place to help Manchester United lead 2-0!" Zhan Jun shouted excitedly!

After seeing the ball go into the net, De Jong turned his head and looked at the referee in disbelief. It wasn't until he saw the referee pointing to the center circle that he was really sure that the ball had gone in.

He almost covered his face, but at this time, De Rong saw Lin Kedi rushing over, and he rushed forward excitedly, and the two hugged each other.

"Lin! I scored! This is the final - I scored in the Champions League final! How dare you pass it out! I thought you would just break through and cut inside!" De Jong shouted excitedly.

Lin Kedi also shouted excitedly: "Don't worry so much! If you appear in that position, I know you will score! What we should be concerned about now is that our xx team is already 2-0!"

The teammates who ran over heard Lin Kedi's last words and gathered around excitedly.

拉什福德更是大喊了起来:“2比0!2比0!2比0!”

When Dericht rushed over, he jumped even more excitedly.

An exciting moment for the Manchester United soldiers.

Paris Saint-Germain fell into a long state of silence.

Mbappe and Neymar both lowered their heads. Who would have thought that right at the beginning of the second half, they would concede another goal, and this goal was too easy.

Who would have thought that even though Lin was restricted from defeating the enemy, he could still pass the ball in the encirclement and assist his teammates to score goals. Could it be that he was really invincible?
Mbappe looked at Lin Kedi from a distance, his heart full of unwillingness, anger, anger, and even a hint of fear.

Mbappe's attitude towards Lin Kedi is very complicated. The two debuted at about the same time, and they even became famous at the same time. At that time, Lin Kedi was in the Eredivisie, and Mbappe was in Ligue [-]. It seemed that Mbappe's stage was higher.

Even Mbappe won the World Cup in 18, but in terms of worth and evaluations from all parties, Lin Kedi is undoubtedly higher than Mbappe. After all, one is the core leader of the team and the other is not.

After Lin Kedi won the Champions League last season and broke the Champions League scoring record, no one compared Lin Kedi and Mbappe together.

At that time, almost everyone was comparing Lin Kedi and Messi and Ronaldo on the same level.

And this season, Lin Kedi's performance is even more outrageous. After winning all the personal honors, Lin Kedi's scoring data has soared crazily.

When his various statistics surpassed Melo at his peak, everyone was saying that it was only a matter of time before Lin Kedi surpassed Melo, because in terms of height, he had already surpassed him.

When everyone talks about the comparison between Lin Kedi and Mbappe, almost everyone feels that the two are not players of the same level.

What makes Mbappe most angry is that even French fans feel the same way.

Mbappe is a very high-spirited person. He cannot accept being the second best player. Although Lin Kedi has never wanted to compete with him, for Mbappe, today, in this final, Defeat your opponent, defeat Lin Kedi, and perform better than him. This is the first step to defeat Lin Kedi.

It's a pity, it's a pity that this first step has not started at all.

When Link scored the first goal, Mbappe was not far away. He was thinking, can he make such an action?Can you make that move and then score a goal accurately?
He knows himself best, but Mbappe doesn't want to admit it. He still wants to fight and win this contest.

So, during the halftime break, he went beyond his duties and directly inspired his teammates.

Although there was no enthusiastic response except from the French gang, Mbappe was still ready to make a big splash in the second half.

As a result, what he didn't expect was that Lin defeated him and extinguished Mbappe's newly ignited flame at the beginning of the second half.

Wait until Manchester United's celebration ends and Paris Saint-Germain kicks off.

Mbappe's mentality is in a confused state. Although from the outside, he still looks normal and there is nothing abnormal, but no one knows that he is broken inside!

Time passed by minute by minute.

"The goal at the beginning of the second half obviously dealt a heavy blow to Paris Saint-Germain. After that, their defensive counterattack tactics were completely gone. They wanted to press the offense in a big way, but obviously, the offense couldn't attack at all. Come on, it's not because Paris' offense is not strong enough, but because Manchester United is pressing and counterattacking like crazy. Manchester United's players in Paris felt their feet were hot when they got the ball. In these 20 minutes, Paris only had 3 shots, and none. The shot was on target, and the only person Paris has to thank is Navas. In this 20-minute game, Navas blocked Lin Ke’s two shots with a high pass, as well as De Jong, Rashford, Perry Strangely, one shot each, a total of five shots on target, were all blocked by the amazing Navas. Obviously, if Navas hadn't existed today, Paris would have only conceded more goals!"

"It's now the 75th minute. In the 60th minute, Manchester United was the first to make substitutions. They changed two players in one go. Lingard replaced Bentancur, who was very active in the first half. , in the 60-minute game, he had to go up offensively, come back defensively, and actively participate in high-position pressing. It can be said that these 60 minutes of play were much more consuming than usual. The second substitution was with Gerry Maldo replaced Dalot. Dalot also consumed a lot today in the constant transition between offense and defense. After all, he has to return to the full-back position for defense, and the midfielder position for offense. His consumption is also It was very big, so in the 60th minute, Ten Hag replaced these two people. Now in the 75th minute, Manchester United made another personnel adjustment and replaced Perisic on the right with Greenwood. Today Perisic also went straight up and down, playing very hard. The fourth substitution was Lindelof replacing Luke Shaw. In the end, Manchester United still had one substitution left!"

"It was 75 minutes for Paris before they made their first substitution. Draxler replaced Paredes, Choupo-Moting replaced Herrera, and Verratti replaced With Di Maria, we obviously need to strengthen the offense. We replaced two midfielders with two offensive players, and then replaced a striker with a midfielder. This is to play 424, This is a life-threatening attitude!”

After Paris made substitution adjustments, they directly played 424. The midfielder was Marquinhos and Verratti, the two defensive midfielders, and the frontcourt became Neymar on the left, Draxler on the right, and Mbappe. and Choupo-Moting are in the middle.

Obviously, Tuchel is desperate.

However, this desperate attitude lasted until the 87th minute. Although Paris had two shots in these ten minutes, which seemed okay, Manchester United also seized the opportunity of Paris' attack to press forward. On counterattack, there were also 2 shots.

It seems that the results of Paris' hard work are not good.

At this time, Paris made another substitution adjustment.

"In the 87th minute, Icardi came on and replaced - replaced Marquinhos! Oh my God, there is only one midfielder in Paris now! Do we have to play three centers? Can it still be like this?" Zhan Jun Said in surprise!

At this time, Ten Hag on the sidelines smiled and said to his assistant Mitchell: "Tuchel has gone crazy, we will definitely win!"

Mitchell also smiled and replied: "Maybe we can score another one, their defense is too empty!"

Just as Mitchell finished speaking.

An attack in Paris was interrupted!

It was the iron man Icardi who had just come on. As soon as he came on the field, he received a pass from Draxler on the right. He received the ball behind Mbappe and Choupo-Moting, and after receiving the ball, he moved directly forward. I wanted to give it to Mbappe, and Mbappe took the ball and moved forward, but it was already 87 minutes. Mbappe's physical fitness had already declined significantly. This one-time pass to the ball was too big. , the ball was intercepted directly by Grimaldo.

Grimaldo kicked directly towards the frontcourt.

It was already the 89th minute. In the last minute of regular time, Paris was desperate, pressing hard and the defense was very high. However, Grimaldo's big kick drove directly to the center line.

At this moment, Kimpembe wanted to get the ball.

But suddenly, a red figure flashed, it was Lin Kedi!
He accelerated and suddenly rushed towards Kimpembe.

Kimpembe was originally planning to pass the ball directly to the frontcourt after receiving the ball. He did not want to delay the team's attack time, but he suddenly heard Thiago Silva's voice in front of him. Thiago Silva's The position is much further forward than Kimpembe. Because of this strange formation, he is basically playing the other defensive midfielder in the double defensive midfielder.

At this time, the voice of Thiago Silva in the midfielder position reached Kimpembe's ears.

"Be careful! Be careful!"

Jin Pengbei was still wondering what to be careful about. When he looked up, a red shadow flashed past.

Jin Pengbei's heart was beating wildly, and suddenly he felt like something was missing under his feet.

Looking down, Kim Pembe saw that the ball he was stepping on, preparing to pass to the frontcourt, was gone——

Jin Pengbei's physical strength had reached its limit at this time. When his physical strength reached its limit, his brain's thinking would slow down. When he looked back, he only saw a red figure rushing towards the frontcourt on the other side.

That, that is - our restricted area!Jin Pengbei suddenly felt his scalp numb. Before his mind could think about it, his body had already turned around and chased after him.

Although, Jin Pengbei knew that he could no longer catch up!

But he still wanted to chase. He saw the red figure of No. 7 getting further and further away from him. At this time, Kimpembe and all the Paris players could only place their hopes on Navas.

At this time, Navas knew that his advantage was the goal line, so he was not in a hurry to attack.

Lin Kedi, on the other hand, took the ball in stride and quickly reached the edge of the penalty area.

Lin Kedi didn't even look up because he was too tired.

At this time, he raised his head and glanced at Navas.

What kind of look is that, perseverance——

But Navas' eyes were equally firm. He knew that at this time, he was the only one who could protect the team. He lowered his center of gravity, opened his arms, and expanded his defensive area as much as possible.

And Navas saw it, he saw Lin Kedi swinging his right leg.

Going to shoot!

"Lin Kedi - he ran a long distance and came to the door - he swung his right leg. At this moment, it seemed that only Lin Kedi and Navas were left in the world -" Zhan Jun lowered his voice, as if He was afraid that his loud voice would affect Lin Kedi.

But the next moment-

"Lin Ke Enemy——shoot!"

"The ball is in! The ball is in!"

"The game is over! The game is over! Lin Kedi scored the third goal! Manchester United 3-0 Paris! The game is over!"

Zhan Jun shouted passionately in the studio, and at this time, on the land of China, many Lin Kedi fans were boiling and excited!

And around the world, there are so many Lin Kedi fans and Manchester United fans in different places, feeling the same mood.

It was the ultimate ecstasy, the ultimate excitement.

After Lin Kedi scored the ball, he ran wildly with excitement.

He didn't know which way he was going, he didn't know when to stop, but what he knew was-

Manchester United won!

Manchester United wins!
Manchester United won the Champions League!

After 12 years, this championship has returned to the hands of the Red Devils Manchester United again after a reincarnation!
