Chapter 49: A sudden goal
"Die Meister (The Victorious Division)!"
"Die Besten (The King's Teacher)!"
“The great team!”
"The champions!"
As the uplifting UEFA Champions League theme song sounded, the referee led the players from both teams forward.
The faint light in front of Chu Feng's eyes gradually bloomed, and finally turned into endless red and blue. He did not squeeze the caddy's hand again, but laughed at an inappropriate time.
Because the majestic UEFA Champions League theme song sounded more like the execution song of a certain team to him.
"Kick Barcelona, kick Barcelona, kick Bayern Munich, my factory has collapsed!"
to be honest.
He is usually a very serious person and usually doesn't laugh unless he can't help it.
Thinking of this, Chu Feng's nervousness dissipated by more than half, and he walked quickly towards the center of the green field.
At this time, there was a lot of joy in the LeTV Sports live broadcast room.
"Good evening, audience friends!"
“Welcome to watch the second round of Group A of the 2017-18 UEFA Champions League.”
"CSKA Moscow vs Manchester United!"
"Here are the starting rosters for both teams!"
"CSKA Moscow lined up in a 3-1-4-2 formation, goalkeeper:."
"Among them, Zagoev has been called the 'new tsar' by fans since he became famous in the 2012 European Cup, but after several serious injuries, his physical functions are no longer as good as before."
"On the contrary, Golovin, who is only 21 years old, performed very well in the league."
"Looking at Manchester United, due to the absence of Fellaini and Pogba, Mourinho changed the formation to 3-4-2-1."
"Our young player Chu Feng is the starting left winger, which is something worth celebrating because it means that the Chinese player's Champions League appearance record, which has been dormant for six years, will continue."
"Perhaps we will have a chance to witness a historic moment tonight."
Most Chinese fans stayed up until 3am just to see Chu Feng on the field. Now, they were immediately excited after hearing the voices of Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu. - [Cold knowledge: CSKA Moscow and Chelsea have the same owner.] - [They were once incorporated by the Military Commission and are the real "Red Army"!] - [The Reds will play in advance!] - [The opponent is not strong and is in the pain period of the replacement of old and new players. I hope Xiao Chu can seize the opportunity to score a goal.] - [Come on!]
While the fans were discussing heatedly, the game on the green field had already begun.
CSKA Moscow quickly advanced forward after the kick-off, occupying the central space and paving the way for the subsequent high-pressure defense.
But they didn't expect Manchester United's reaction to be so violent.
Blind and Ashley Young pressed high up the pitch, directly suppressing CSKA Moscow's two wingbacks and preventing them from easily advancing to attack.
Herrera and Matic formed a barrier in the middle to maintain the stability of the formation.
Chu Feng, Mkhitaryan and Lukaku, the three of them rushed into the opponent's territory and made crazy steals at the cost of their physical strength.
Under such high-intensity pressure, CSKA Moscow's weakness of lacking stable passing ability was infinitely magnified.
The single defensive midfielder Wayne Bloom chose to pass the ball forward in a hurry.
But Herrera was keenly aware of the space on his side, moved in advance to intercept the ball halfway, and then sent a highly penetrating pass.
Bang! The football rolled quickly along the grass.
at the same time.
Chu Feng quickly changed direction and stabbed the ribs diagonally.
First he shook off the nearby defensive players, then he stopped and dribbled forward and headed straight for the opponent's back line.
Although the combined age of the three defenders led by Ignashevich is over 100 years old, they are very experienced.
Two people closely guarded Lukaku, and one person went forward to press Chu Feng.
Chu Feng raised his head slightly to observe, and pedaled two bicycles in succession.
Ever since his dribbling attribute broke through 80, it can be clearly felt that he is more adept at controlling the ball. To put it more mysteriously, it feels like he is one with the ball.
As soon as Wasin's center of gravity fluctuated slightly, he found Chu Feng rushing out like an arrow.
But he really didn't have the strength to do so. He wanted to turn around and steal the ball, but his body couldn't react in time.
After Chu Feng completed the breakthrough, he quickly adjusted his posture and suddenly pushed forward with his right foot.
Bang! The football flew out and went into the goal from the right side.
0-1!
The huge stadium suddenly fell silent. Tens of thousands of CSKA Moscow fans were stunned and it took them a while to realize that their goal had been breached.
They suddenly felt that the smoke sticks in their crotches were so redundant.
The few Manchester United fans who were left did not dare to make too much noise. They celebrated a little and then sat back quietly.
After scoring the goal, Chu Feng did not expect that his first Champions League goal would come so quickly and so unexpectedly.
He only felt an indescribable ecstasy surging in his heart, which seemed to engulf his reason, and he could only vent it through running.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The Manchester United players followed closely behind, waving their arms and cheering excitedly.
"This ball goes in!"
"Only three minutes into the game, Herrera intercepted the ball in the midfield and made a straight pass. Chu Feng dribbled past the defense and shot into the goal, helping Manchester United take the lead!"
“Manchester United had to endure the disadvantages of temperature and fatigue after coming all the way here. I thought it would be a tough match, but they delivered a powerful performance right at the start!”
Zhan Jun was explaining when he suddenly realized something and raised his voice by three points: "Coach Zhang, did Chu Feng break the record of zero goals scored by Chinese male players in the Champions League?!"
"Yes, he made new history."
“I believe we will all remember this wonderful night.”
Zhang Lu couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He had been commentating for so many years and had been waiting for this moment.
The comments in the live broadcast room fell like snowflakes. - [Ah?] - [Shouldn't it be that after going through hardships, the goal was scored with great difficulty?] - [It was mainly due to Mourinho's targeted deployment, which directly strangled the connection between CSKA Moscow's midfield and frontcourt.] - [Chu Feng's dribbling was also very beautiful, with a feeling of flowing water.] - [Watching Chu Feng for more than a month, it is really gratifying to see him go from a substitute to a starter, from the league to the Champions League.] - [Come on, the game has just begun, try to score a few more goals and surpass Son Heung-min as soon as possible.] - [.]
At this moment on the sidelines, Mourinho's expression was a little dull. He had never expected the game to develop like this.
"Boss, have you noticed that Chu performs better overall when he is near the center on the left flank."
Faria suddenly popped his head out from the side.
"That's because he is used to breaking through from the left side, and the space left on the outside becomes larger when he gets closer to the center."
Mourinho shook his head, thinking that he had given too much time before. Chu Feng only took 3 minutes to achieve his requirements.
But Manchester United will indeed have an easier time next time.
The game on the green field resumed.
CSKA Moscow seemed undeterred by falling behind, showing their will and tenacity.
But in competitive sports, mental strength alone is not enough; it still depends on the strength of the players.
Under Manchester United's highly targeted defense, CSKA Moscow found it difficult to form effective offensive coordination and could only test De Gea with long shots.
But now De Gea is at his peak and his overall level is definitely among the top three in the Premier League.
Butterfly hands? Knock the ball into your own goal?
This kind of low-level mistake is impossible to be seen in De Gea now.
Therefore, CSKA Moscow's offensive did not pose much threat.
As time went on, the situation on the field became calmer.
Thanks to the book friend "I need to think about it carefully" for the monthly ticket.
Thank you for your support, dear readers. You can wait until I finish writing the competition. It’s too tiring to read fragmented articles every day. It should be available in one to two weeks, but I will ensure that I have enough manuscripts in stock.
