Chapter 288
Back at the Bernabeu, a huge tifo with the word CR7 on it was displayed on the stadium, and when Cristiano walked out with the team, the fans immediately cheered loudly.
Cristiano turned to the fans in the stands, raised his hands and clapped, then signaled for the fans to be quiet.
The game begins.
Real Madrid launched a fierce attack as soon as the whistle sounded. After the start, the ball was almost always in Bayern's frontcourt.
Almost all Bayern players retreated to their own penalty area. They tightened their defense, fearing that a single mistake would allow Cristiano, Benzema, Kaka... any one of Real Madrid's players to score the ball into their goal.
Marcelo was unable to get the ball into a better position at the edge of the penalty area, so he had to simply and lightly pass the ball back to Ramos.
Ramos glanced at the front area.
A stalemate and prolonged attack would only make the players exhausted. He found Cristiano's eyes, and Cristiano leaned forward slightly. Then he quickly realized what he should do.
He made a slight adjustment and then made a diagonal pass to the middle of the penalty area.
The ball accurately found Cristiano, who stopped the ball with his chest. After taking the ball off, he made almost no adjustments and shot it directly!
In the 104th minute, the deadlock was broken!
"GOAL!!!! Cristiano Ronaldo!! One hundred and four minutes!! The score is back on top of Bayern again!!"
"Watch the replay of the goal! After Ronaldo stopped the ball with his chest, the three Bayern defenders reacted very quickly! Even Boateng raised his foot to clear the ball!"
"But Ronaldo didn't give the defender time and shot directly and efficiently, leaving Neuer with nothing to do but watch the ball blast into the goal he was guarding."
"Bayern was attacked again by the Portuguese! Overtime has just begun and Real Madrid is leading!"
Cristiano quickly carried the ball back to the center line with no intention of celebrating at all.
Ramos, who had originally jumped up and was about to run towards Cristiano with joy, stopped abruptly upon seeing this. He could hardly contain his excitement and joy, so he could only turn around and give Modric, Marcelo and others a big hug, waved his fist and grinned foolishly.
Lewandowski stared at the Portuguese player's back, unwilling to waste a moment. He gritted his teeth and started running after him.
——Ronaldo has scored a goal, but he doesn’t even want to spend a few seconds celebrating. What else is he going to do? Do we have to give them another ball? That's absolutely impossible. No one has ever humiliated the Bundesliga champions like this in the knockout stage of the Champions League.
Bayern launched an attack on Real Madrid. After Muller's long pass was intercepted by Casemiro, the two teams fell into a stalemate again.
Half of the overtime period had passed and the two teams switched sides to continue the game.
The cheers of the fans on both sides of the Bernabeu stands became more and more passionate, echoing throughout the Bernabeu.
With Kaka taking the ball in the middle, another round of attack by Real Madrid began.
"Kaka took the ball and broke through the center line before making a long pass! Cristiano immediately sped up! He took the ball off his knees and stuck it firmly under his feet!"
"He broke through several Bayern defenders in a row! Ronaldo still had terrifying physical strength in the countdown of overtime! He broke Bayern's defense into pieces!"
"Ronaldo passes the ball to Marcelo! Marcelo dribbles the ball straight into the penalty area!"
When Neuer saw the ball being brought into the penalty area by Marcelo, he quickly analyzed the situation on the field. Cristiano was on the right side of the penalty area, and Benzema was still behind Marcelo. Marcelo almost had a one-on-one opportunity.
Neuer did not hesitate any longer and immediately rushed out to catch the ball in front of him, but he did not expect that Marcelo, facing the one-on-one shot, seemed to have anticipated Neuer's plan. He kicked the ball and the ball returned to Cristiano's feet again.
"Marcelo passed the ball in front of the goal! Ronaldo shot diagonally into the empty goal from the right side of the penalty area!!! The ball went in again!!"
"Cristiano Ronaldo scored three goals!!! There were less than five minutes left in the game!! It was almost impossible for Bayern to overtake the score!"
When the final whistle sounded, Cristiano finally let go of the pressure and tension. The fans throughout the Bernabeu Stadium screamed and shouted Cristiano's name, as if they were tireless, one loud shout after another.
Cristiano ran to the side of the stands, relaxed his shoulders and opened his arms, as if he was hugging the fans who were shouting his name in the stadium, and as if he was dominating the world with a hint of arrogance. This posture made the fans in the stadium scream his name even more crazily and excitedly.
Ramos finally got the chance for Cristiano to celebrate. He almost rushed towards Cristiano, grabbed Cristiano's waist with both hands, and lifted the Portuguese player with his arms open on the sidelines off the ground.
"We're in the final! Cristiano! We did it! Oh my God, this is incredible!!" Ramos shouted excitedly in his ear. He assisted Cristiano's first goal in overtime and he got the chance to redeem himself!
God knows how much he wanted to do at that moment, he just hugged Cristiano and shouted long live him. He couldn't imagine that if there was no Cristiano, if they couldn't complete the goal reversal in overtime, he would definitely be nailed to the historical pillar of shame of Real Madrid.
——In the future, his epitaph will have to be engraved with these words: The captain of Real Madrid who forced Real Madrid to end their five consecutive Champions League titles.
This is a nightmare.
Cristiano felt that Ramos had ruined his celebration. He was posing just fine, with the cameras of the media on the sidelines pointed at him, but the next second, it was as if he was pulled up by the roots! This makes it seem like his aura is completely gone!
Cristiano couldn't even raise the corners of his mouth. He really wanted to pry open Ramos' head and ask what was inside and why he was trying to pull him out. ?
After being put down by Ramos, Cristiano immediately turned around, looked past Ramos, and saw Kaka running towards him.
Ramos saw the Portuguese's eyes suddenly light up after he turned around and a big smile appeared on his face. Before he could smile and squint his eyes to high-five and hug Cristiano, he saw the boy pass him and run straight towards Kaka.
Ramos: “…”
Hmm.
Cristiano jumped onto Kaka’s waist and hugged him tightly: “Kaka!”
Kaka caught Cristiano steadily. He held his lover's thigh with one hand to help Cristiano hang steadily on his waist, and the other hand was around his lover's waist. The slightly bulging muscle lines of his arms made Cristiano's waist seem even thinner, as if it could be wrapped with one hand.
Kaka lowered his head slightly, put his lips on the skin behind Cristiano's neck, and then looked sideways in the direction of Ramos, who was also looking at them.
He folded his arms, as if to wipe and cover up the Real Madrid captain's action just now.
"Wow, Kaka?" Cristiano lowered his head and looked at his lover. It was rare for him to clearly perceive his lover's emotions on the field. Perhaps it was because of the beautiful organization of the last goal just now, or perhaps it was because of this exciting counterattack. He smiled, held Kaka's face with both hands, lowered his head to touch Kaka's forehead, grinned and cheered, "Great! We won!"
Kaka also laughed, he slowly loosened his arms and put Cristiano back to the ground.
Their teammates arrived soon after. Cristiano opened five fingers to them and excitedly showed his hand forwards and backwards three times. His eyes were wide open and even his two thin long eyebrows were flying up.
Kaka and other teammates know what this means——
"This is Ronaldo's 15th Champions League goal this season!! Incredible goal efficiency!!"
"He is already far ahead in the Champions League scorer list! The second place is Ibrahimovic of Paris Saint-Germain, who has scored ten goals in this season's Champions League! Barcelona's Lyon Messi ranks third with 8 goals!"
"Also in the assists list, Cristiano Ronaldo and Barcelona's new signing Neymar currently share the top spot with 24 assists!"
"Cristiano Ronaldo completed his hat trick against Bayern Munich! At the same time, this also made him the first player to complete a hat trick against Bayern in the Champions League knockout stage!!"
"Congratulations to Real Madrid! They survived the extra time of the second leg of the semi-final and got a flight ticket to the final night!"
"Bayern Munich unfortunately stopped in the semi-finals!"
All the staff of Real Madrid also ran into the stadium, and Cristiano was picked up by everyone and thrown high into the air.
It was Zidane who was two steps late and struggled to squeeze into the crowd.
Benzema heard their coach utter a series of curses in his native language, and then asked everyone in Spanish to stop the damn celebration.
Zidane didn't want to see his players injured because of such ridiculous celebrations. Although he knew the possibility of this was slim, he couldn't help but worry every time he saw these rough men touching the Portuguese.
He guessed that he was infected by his good friend, another Portuguese player. Figo always complained in his ear about the World Cup qualifying play-off match. The over-excited Portuguese team almost pushed Cristiano to the bottom like a pyramid - fortunately, they still had the reliable Rui Costa as an insider, who rescued their little strawberry from the bottom in time.
"All right, boys! The final!" Zidane couldn't hide his excitement. He clapped his hands and said loudly, "The game has just begun!"
For the final, they will travel to England, to Wembley Stadium.
Just one day before their match, the winner of another semi-final was decided - they will meet Barcelona at Wembley Stadium in the UK.
This Champions League final will become a Spanish national derby.
