Chapter 855 Real Madrid's Weakness
In the opening quarter of an hour, Real Madrid led 1-0, trailing 2-3 on aggregate, with an away goal in hand.
This situation is delicate.
As long as they can defend and score another goal in the second half, Real Madrid can successfully eliminate Manchester United.
But if one goal is conceded, Real Madrid must score at least two more.
If two goals are conceded, Real Madrid need to score at least four more.
In such a delicate situation, Sun Wu keenly discovered the loopholes. Although the formation was not broken up, Real Madrid's hearts were not in harmony.
The trident in the frontcourt wanted to make persistent efforts, and even defenders such as Ramos and Marcelo wanted to score another goal to gain an advantage, but Modric, Khedira and Isco in the midfield tried to stabilize.
"The Manchester United players seem to be in the wrong position..." Zhan Jun immediately noticed the change, "Thomas Muller appeared in the middle, and Milner pulled the side... look again."
Sun Wu sent a diagonal pass to Milner, then ran to catch the ball, made an action of speeding up to catch the ball, then braked suddenly to throw off Khedira who was coming up, pulled the ball with the sole of his foot and turned around with his left foot to send a straight pass.
Lukaku, who pulled out of the penalty area, leaned on Varane behind him and sent a direct pass back. Thomas Muller inserted the ball in the middle... At this time Modric caught up and squeezed Erwa down with his body.
"Smooth cooperation, Thomas Muller got a free kick for Manchester United, the position is to the right, and the angle is a bit positive." Zhan Jun said with great interest: "But Muller inserted the ball from the middle, he and Mill Na switched places."
Pochettino on the sidelines shrugged to his colleagues, "This is his power."
Manchester United may only have this advantage in the world. After discovering that the Real Madrid players were not in harmony, Sun Wu immediately found Milner and asked him to run over to find Erwa for a change.
Real Madrid's weakness in this game is very obvious. Without Casemiro and Illarramendi, the defense in the center is very weak. Khedira is not a defensive midfielder.
Although Thomas Muller's dribbling ability is not as good as Milner's, his running position can create a threat. Just now he appeared behind Khedira to catch the ball, and he was about to face Ramos. It's a pity that it was destroyed by Modric who returned to defense.
Both Sun Wu and Griezmann stand in front of the ball, the former on the left and the latter on the right.
"In the first round, Sun Wu scored the crucial third goal. Look at this free kick..."
Zhang Lu was a little nervous, "It should be Sun Wu... oh, the goal has been scored!"
"The goal was scored. In the 20th minute, Sun Wu scored a direct free kick to equalize the score for Manchester United. Now the total score is 4 to 2!"
Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema in the crowd all looked dazed, Zidane put his hands in his trouser pockets on the sidelines with no expression on his face, and Casillas still kept bending over and trying to pounce.
Sun Wu, who rushed to the sidelines, jumped over the billboard and raised his arms and shouted. Griezmann behind him kissed him heavily on the forehead excitedly.
"It's different this time!" Zhan Jun said with a smile: "This time the ball didn't go around the wall and into the near corner, but flew over the wall and into the far corner. Iker Casillas made a mistake in his prediction!"
"Previously Sun Wu's direct free kicks were around the wall to find a close corner, but this time...haha, this is a sneak attack!" Zhang Lu said excitedly: "4 to 2, the promotion is not sure, but the problem should not be Big!"
Raul in the stands looked up at the big screen... Sun Wu swung his left arm and raised his right foot. The ball flew from under his feet, crossed the wall, flew into the penalty area and then fell quickly, making an inner arc Tricky drilled into the far corner.
Very familiar, there was a Manchester United No. 7 who was very good at this kind of shooting.
At this time, the live camera found the substitute goalkeeper Keylor Navas on the bench. The Costa Rican goalkeeper was acquired by Real Madrid after his outstanding performance in the World Cup in Brazil. He also became the main force this season, but only in the league. Trust the experienced Iker Casillas.
After the re-kick-off, Real Madrid's hearts were united this time, and they pressed the whole line again.
But Sun Wu, who found Real Madrid's weakness, didn't panic at all. He even let Milner go to the left, Thomas Muller went back to the right, and let Griezmann come to the center.
In terms of ability to break through with the ball, Griezmann is the best of the 11 players on the field.
But Real Madrid's reckless attack once again paid off.
In the 41st minute, Jesse entangled with Rojo at the corner flag, Milner stole the ball from his crotch to make a clearance but was intercepted by Carvajal, and Modric sent a precise cross from the right rib.
Ronaldo entered the penalty area at high speed, jumped high on the edge of the small penalty area and shook his head to attack the goal. Alderweireld, who felt that the opponent's cross was too high, didn't even take off. Headed into the dead corner of the goal.
"Another one, Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice!" The Spanish commentator encouraged Real Madrid again, "One more goal can equalize the total score, and two more goals can eliminate Manchester United!"
"For Ronaldo, the difficulty is not too high. Last season, Ronaldo completed the big four twice... Oh, Khedira made a mistake!"
Khedira actually played with an injury, and played pretty well in this half of the game. With Modric and Isco advancing forward, he controlled the team's rhythm and accurately completed the task of transferring the ball.
But this time, his pass was intercepted, Sun Wu made an accurate prediction, and suddenly interrupted Khedira's pass to Modric in front of the position.
Sun Wu did not pass the ball at the first time, but walked forward with the ball, and waited for Khedira to pounce on it before poking it with his toe, sending a straight pass in an unconventional way, and the ball just passed through Khedira's crotch.
"Griezmann...Look at what he can do!" Zhan Jun kept talking, but he felt a little strange in his heart. Griezmann appeared at the front of the center. Where did Lukaku go?
But at the next moment, when the live broadcast camera turned, Zhan Jun saw that Lukakula restrained Ramos, which made Griezmann only need to deal with Varane.
Griezmann didn't stop the ball, he waded the ball out more than 20 meters, and then accelerated to try to bypass Varane... He underestimated his national teammate too much.
Varane once staged the feat of running 80 meters to complete the clearance, and speed is his strong point!
"Fight for speed... It's a pity that Griezmann... didn't concede the ball, but was squeezed away by Varane." Mortensen said regretfully: "There is no chance to face the goal directly."
Varane bumped into Griezmann's shoulder while running wildly, and the two caught up with the ball on the right rib almost at the same time, but Griezmann had already lost the chance to shoot.
After slowing down, Griezmann made two subtle fake moves with his left foot, but Varane was unmoved, and Griezmann sent a return pass.
While Griezmann was trying to pass the ball, Sun Wu pushed Khedira, who couldn't stop, and ran wildly, and then he received a return pass from his teammate on the right rib.
"Best... oh, a direct pass!"
Ramos stood in front of Lukaku, not at ease, quietly grabbed the hem of the opponent's jersey with one hand, and was relieved when he saw the flight path of the ball. Neither he nor Lukaku could hit the ball.
"Too urgent!" Pochettino blurted out as soon as he waved his hand on the sidelines. He could hold the ball and make a second attack. The opponent's defense line was not fully in place yet.
Almost everyone thinks that Manchester United's attack is over, only one person doesn't think so.
Casillas felt that the blood in his body had been frozen. He stood in front of him, and his eyes moved with the flight of the ball in the air.
As a legendary goalkeeper with more than 700 appearances, Casillas has a sharper intuition than his teammates... His heart sank.
"Bang!" This is the sound of the ball hitting the post.
"Beep!" This is the referee's whistle indicating that the goal is valid.
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"Unbelievable, a lob from 28 meters away!"
"It's unbelievable. Best's lob from 28 meters broke Real Madrid's goal again. He scored twice. This goal made Real Madrid fall off a cliff!"
"Precise lob shot, the ball hit the post and went into the net, Casillas still didn't make any saves, he watched the ball go into the net again!"
Mortensen's howls annoyed the Spanish commentator next door...
