Chapter 1019 Double Kill
Chapter 1019 Double Kill
Mourinho on the sidelines was also celebrating. He hugged everyone around him with an excited smile on his face.
He knew that with this goal, Manchester United's ticket to the final was secure!
If Real Madrid wants to eliminate Manchester United, they must score two goals in the next short period of time to equalize the total score and drag the game into overtime.
Once the game goes into extra time, Mourinho firmly believes that it will be more beneficial for his team because they are in better physical condition.
This is the result of my persistent emphasis on physical fitness for several years.
When the Manchester United players finished celebrating and everyone else ran back to their own half, Bruno, Greenwood and Rashford were left at the back, running back to their own half side by side.
Greenwood praised Bruno's long pass for being very accurate. The speed and posture of the football after landing allowed him to control the ball very well. He made almost no adjustments and could just dribble away.
Bruno believes that the main credit for this goal was Greenwood's timely cross and Rashford's strenuous run, as well as a sudden stop and fake move to get rid of Casemiro.
Rashford smiled and said: "I just try to do my own thing."
But no matter who got the credit, the ball went in, and everyone's hearts were finally at ease, which made them happiest.
The three of them ran back shoulder to shoulder, laughing.
The TV broadcast showed them a shot, and seeing this scene, Lineker said: "These three people dominated this goal. Bruno initiated it, Greenwood assisted, Rashford got rid of the defense beautifully, and then scored the ball. The cooperation of these three geniuses killed Real Madrid."
………………
After all Manchester United players returned to their own half, Real Madrid was ready to kick off.
But in fact, the Real Madrid players themselves knew that the door of miracle that they had tried their best to break open was now closed again, and they had no time to try it a second time.
After the game resumed, Real Madrid had lost their fighting spirit. On the contrary, Manchester United's morale was greatly boosted and they quickly scored the second goal.
When the Real Madrid players kicked off, the game had already entered injury time.
The referee gave five minutes of extra time, which is quite long. If Manchester United hadn't scored and the score was still 2:0, it would definitely be good news for Real Madrid.
But the reality is that Manchester United scored a goal in the last minute of regular time, which almost cut off the home team's hopes of a comeback and severely damaged Real Madrid's morale.
In the first minute of injury time, Greenwood received a pass from Bruno and took a low shot very close to the baseline. The ball went into the goal along the grass.
"Greenwood! Manchester United equalized the score! 2:2! The total score is 6:3! Judging from the current situation, Manchester United, who are playing away, even have a chance of winning this game!"
After scoring the goal, Greenwood did not celebrate wildly, or rather, his way of celebrating was different. He first opened his mouth wide, then covered his mouth with both hands and stared with his eyes wide open.
He himself seemed unable to believe that he could score a goal in the Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid!
This may be the most meaningful shot of his career so far.
Bruno ran up to celebrate the goal with him and also made a surprised expression, so the two of them looked at each other with the same surprised expression until the other teammates rushed over and drowned them.
Bruno's surprised expression was of course a bit of a performance, but he was indeed very surprised. He didn't expect Greenwood to turn this opportunity, which was not an opportunity at all, into a goal.
You can imagine how difficult it is to shoot directly from a small angle without stopping the ball.
But it doesn't matter even if Greenwood's goal was a fluke. Thanks to him, Manchester United equalized the score in the first minute of injury time.
………………
Manchester United, who equalized the score, was in high spirits and took the initiative, almost bombarding Real Madrid's half.
Although the scene was exciting, it also made Manchester United fans very nervous: after falling behind by two goals, they scored two goals in just two minutes to tie the score. If they still couldn't win in the end and only got a draw, it would be such a shame!
Lineker joked: "I think at this time Real Madrid fans must be eager to help the team block the goal..."
The tense and exciting atmosphere lasted until the 94th minute.
Bruno controlled the ball in front of the Real Madrid penalty area and was immediately surrounded by two Real Madrid players.
Despite being surrounded, Bruno remained calm. His thighs and calves seemed to move almost imperceptibly; with a flick of his ankle and a toe, the ball flew past the shoulder of Real Madrid player Valverde, who was blocking his path. Valverde could have easily headed the ball away, or at least deflected it off course, by simply turning his head slightly to the side.
But Bruno's pass was too covert and sudden. His thighs and calves hardly moved. He relied on the strength of his ankles. Without any warning, the football appeared next to Valverde. How could he react?
The football flew past Valverde's head and into the penalty area behind him.
At that place, Greenwood appeared on time, and then used his chest to cushion the ball picked up by Bruno. Then, without waiting for the football to land, he swung his foot and shot!
The football drew a parabola, bypassed the crowd in the penalty area, and then fell straight into the back corner of the goal!
………………
Real Madrid goalkeeper Courtois leaped up and stretched out his arms to catch the ball. He touched it, but Greenwood's kick was more powerful than he expected. Although he touched the ball, he couldn't change its trajectory. The ball only deflected slightly and flew into the goal!
"Greenwood!! This goal is so crucial! It helped Manchester United take the lead! In the 94th minute! This was a very crucial goal! If this score remained until the end of the game, Manchester United would have once again achieved a double kill against Real Madrid!" Lineker shouted excitedly.
As a British man, Lineker was in a very good mood after witnessing Manchester United achieve a double kill against top club Real Madrid.
Just a day ago, Liverpool scored three goals in the second half to win the game after falling behind by two goals, and defeated La Liga team Villarreal twice, which made Lineker extremely excited.
Today, Manchester United achieved an even more exciting comeback. They scored three goals in just five minutes and reversed the powerful Real Madrid.
This is really crazy!
After scoring the goal, Greenwood excitedly ran towards Bruno who passed the ball to him.
No matter where he is, Bruno can always find him and pass the ball to him.
He hugged Bruno.
"This is Bruno's seventh assist in the Champions League this season. He has surpassed Vinicius of Real Madrid and Sane of Bayern Munich to take the top spot in the Champions League assist list this season!" He Wei said happily.
Other excited Manchester United players also rushed up, surrounded the two of them and celebrated the goal.
The Real Madrid players stood there in a daze, unable to do anything but watch.
………………
Greenwood's goal helped Manchester United take the lead in the final moments, which basically helped Manchester United win the game. After all, with only one minute left in the game, the morale-boosted Manchester United could no longer give Real Madrid any chance to take advantage.
Real Madrid also lacked sufficient motivation and fighting spirit. After leading by two goals, they conceded three goals in five minutes, which completely destroyed the players.
In the last minute of the game, both sides played calmly. Manchester United firmly controlled the ball under their feet, passing it back and forth, while Real Madrid players rarely rushed forward to grab the ball.
There was only one minute left in the game and Real Madrid was still four goals behind in the aggregate score. No matter how optimistic a person was, they would not believe that Real Madrid could turn the tables!
And just like that, the final moments of the game ended in this calm.
When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, Manchester United's substitutes rushed onto the field and hugged their teammates to celebrate.
"The game is over! Manchester United has won another thrilling victory! Now they are only one game away from winning their fifth consecutive Champions League title, ninety minutes left!" He Wei said.
"A day ago, Liverpool was the first to advance to the Champions League final. Now, with Manchester United also reaching the final, the two Premier League giants will meet again in the Champions League final!" Lineker was also very happy. "Manchester United was under tremendous pressure in this game until Rashford scored for Manchester United! This is Manchester United's fifth consecutive year to advance to the Champions League final, and it is also the third time in the past four years that the Champions League final has been a Premier League civil war! It is also the second time in three years that Manchester United and Liverpool, two Premier League giants, will meet again in the Champions League final! The feud between Manchester United and Liverpool, following the League Cup, FA Cup and Premier League, has continued to the Champions League final. Will Liverpool achieve the treble, or will Manchester United win the quadruple? Let us wait and see in the next three weeks!"
………………
While Manchester United players were celebrating wildly for their team's advancement to the final, their head coach Mourinho did not forget to shake hands with Ancelotti.
After being eliminated, Ancelotti was still quite graceful. As soon as the game ended, he took the initiative to shake hands with Mourinho.
After shaking hands, he turned and left through the tunnel, not wanting to stay in the stadium for even a second.
Mourinho, however, changed his calm and polite demeanor when shaking hands with Ancelotti, and rushed into the stadium with his arms open like a madman, engaging in crazy celebrations.
That night, the team he led made history!
