Chapter 586: We can’t lose the ball anymore!
Su Dong happily got up from the ground, wiped the rain off his face, and looked at Ronnie who had fallen on the muddy grass, covered in grass and water stains. Su Dong immediately laughed.
"Sorry, the court is too slippery."
Su Dong immediately stood up from the ground and stretched out his hand.
"Get out of here! I did it on purpose! Don't think I don't know!" Ronnie cursed angrily, but his hand still grabbed Su Dong's right hand. He tried hard, but he didn't get up and instead pulled Su Dong down.
This guy deliberately picked up a handful of grass on the ground, threw it on Su Dong, and laughed.
Players from both teams felt overwhelmed by the situation.
Are they fighting? Should we help? The referee was also standing in the distance, feeling awkward. He was constantly thinking over and over again in his mind, is this considered a foul and a provocation?
Should I give them both a yellow card? In the end, the referee rationally decided that if he really gave them a card, he would be blamed by the two superstars, and he would also be criticized by the media and fans tomorrow.
Who in the world doesn't know that these two guys are best buddies? Didn't one of Ronnie's girlfriends once reveal in the media that they were so close that they could wear the same pair of pants?
But the authority of the referee must still be maintained.
So, the referee from Slovakia immediately ran over, coughed twice, and signaled them to get up quickly because the game was about to start.
…
Manchester United won a free kick on the right side of the frontcourt.
Former Bayern player Hargreaves ran over to take the penalty, but the kick fell to the front point and was headed away by Lucio, who headed the ball far forward.
Su Dong was originally at the front of the penalty area, but suddenly he rushed forward at a very fast speed.
Once he picked up speed, he left all the players behind in an instant and determined where the ball would land first.
Scholes was originally in the lagging position, and he was closer to the landing point, but Su Dong was tall and had long legs, so he took the lead and headed the ball forward, and the whole person passed by Scholes.
The poor ginger boy only felt as if a gust of wind had blown past his eyes, and when he looked again, the ball was gone! When Scholes turned around to chase him, Su Dong had already caught up with the ball and was running all the way with it.
Vidic and Ferdinand just rushed into the Bayern penalty area to receive the free kick, and there was no one on the back line at that time.
The Bayern fans in the stands suddenly became excited and began to shout Su Dong's name loudly.
Su Dong dribbled the ball across the center line, and Wes Brown, who was closest, chose to stay in position.
He was determined to commit a foul and wanted to stop Su Dong.
But just when Su Dong had just rushed out of the center circle and was about to enter Wes Brown's defense zone, he suddenly made a fake move, his figure flashed, and after deceiving Brown, he broke through from the other side with the ball and continued to rush forward.
"Oh my god, Su Dong is really fast and his fake moves are so realistic that Brown was defeated in one blow."
"Look at Bayern's counterattack this time."
"Su Dong..."
Su Dong dribbled the ball straight into the penalty area, Evra chased him all the way, and Ronnie also followed closely behind, not giving up an inch.
When Su Dong dribbled the ball into the penalty area, Evra tried his best to block Su Dong's shooting angle, and Van der Sar also kept changing his position.
Su Dong also slowed down, and when he saw that Evra and Van der Sar did not leave him any opportunity to exploit, he chose to shoot directly with his left foot.
The shot was so powerful that it went straight into the near corner of the goal.
Van der Sar reacted quickly, diving sideways and stretching his hands forward as far as possible.
The Dutch goalkeeper's finger flicked Su Dong's shot, causing the ball to slightly change direction, hit the left post of the goal, and bounce out of the bottom line.
The entire Luzhniki Stadium erupted in screams of surprise.
Su Dong also stopped in front of the baseline, breathing heavily in frustration and shaking his head continuously.
Evra was also very fast and stayed on his right side, blocking his shooting angle. Otherwise, Van der Sar might not have been able to save it this time.
More importantly, Bayern's two wingers Robben and Ribery failed to catch up in the first time and fell behind a lot.
"This counterattack by Bayern was very beautiful!"
"Thirteen minutes into the game, Bayern made a quick counterattack. Su Dong dribbled the ball over a long distance and made a very thrilling shot, but unfortunately it hit the post and failed to score."
Although there was no goal, the Bayern fans at the scene still gave Su Dong a warm round of applause.
Su Dong walked back panting, and the Manchester United players around him were also terrified.
If it weren't for the good cooperation between Van der Sar and Evra, especially the sideways save by the Dutch goalkeeper, Su Dong would have scored!
The world's top center forward, this is no joke! Ferguson was furious on the sidelines, constantly scolding the players.
If such a mistake happens again, Manchester United will be finished!
…
Ronnie was walking excitedly down the front court.
He saw Su Dong walking back, and his expression was also quite excited.
He didn't expect that Su Dong's first shot would give everyone such a huge surprise.
Sure enough, in terms of personal ability, he is still slightly inferior.
But it doesn't matter.
Ronnie knew a few years ago that his personal strength was not as good as Su Dong's, but he still had the confidence to defeat Su Dong.
The confrontation on the court is often not a pure confrontation of strength. Besides, Ronnie is not facing Su Dong.
…
Manchester United took a goal kick, but the ball was quickly taken away by Bayern.
The two teams fought for the ball near the center line, but Manchester United grabbed the ball.
After Scholes got the ball near the center circle, he immediately made a low pass.
Ronnie quickly moved forward, stopped Scholes' pass between Lahm and Lucio, and continued to rush forward.
Under the double-team of Lahm and Lucio, Ronnie rushed into Bayern's penalty area with the ball, but he failed to get rid of Lahm's entanglement and failed to break through Lucio. He was forced to stop, turn out of the penalty area and protect the ball.
Rooney quickly caught up and immediately passed the ball to him. While Lahm and Lucio's attention was attracted by Rooney who had the ball, Rooney quickly cut into the penalty area.
Rooney understood what he meant and passed the ball straight to Lucio's back.
Pepe was shocked and rushed over to assist in defense.
Ronnie stopped Rooney's straight pass with his right foot, then chased after him and kicked a fierce shot with his right foot straight into the upper right corner of the goal.
Kahn was standing on the left side, and when he saw Ronnie's shot, he immediately moved sideways to save the ball.
The German goalkeeper is old, and his jumping ability and reaction speed are far inferior to those in his peak period. Moreover, the upper right corner is still his weak spot throughout his career.
Ronnie's shot was so powerful that even Kahn, who tried his best to save the ball, was unable to stop it and the ball went straight into the upper right corner of Bayern.
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
There was a burst of wild cheers from Manchester United fans at the scene.
Ronnie rushed out of the court excitedly, running all the way and roaring continuously.
The crazy Portuguese quickly jumped over the billboard, rushed across the athletic track, and went straight to the bottom of the stands where Manchester United fans were, cheering non-stop.
The Manchester United players behind him rushed over one after another to celebrate this wonderful goal.
…
"What happened? A goal was scored like this?"
Somewhere in the stands where Bayern fans were, Wang Chuqing and Ma Dawei, who were accompanying Su Dong's parents, their own parents, and Lao Zhou and other relatives and friends who had come all the way to Moscow to watch the game, were all very surprised by the result.
They came here to win against the Soviet Union. It would be a great pity if they lost.
"Don't worry, don't worry, Lao Zhou, don't get excited, the game has not even been going on for twenty minutes." Wang Qingquan soothed calmly.
"How can I not be excited? This is the Champions League final. Losing the ball first would be fatal!" Lao Zhou became even more excited.
He is a die-hard fan of Su Dong and is eagerly waiting to see Su Dong win a Champions League.
Even new fans know that conceding the first goal in the Champions League final is a huge disadvantage.
"Kahn is really old." Wang Qingquan also felt quite regretful.
In the last shot, Ronnie's shooting angle was not very wide. If Kahn were younger, he might have been able to save it.
"Our friend Xiaodong is also very capable." Su Wenjie praised with a smile.
He had met Ronnie many times, and although they couldn't speak the same language, he still recognized him.
"He was just elected the double Footballer of the Year in December," Wang Chuqing explained.
"Bayern is probably in a difficult situation now. Before the game, Heynckes should have focused on strengthening Marcelo's defense on the left. He thought Manchester United would focus on attacking this side, but unexpectedly, Ferguson did not do that. From the beginning to now, he has been attacking Ronaldo's side. He is really cunning!" Ma Dawei shook his head and exclaimed.
After all, he is a world-famous coach! Ferguson and Heynckes are both very old, and Ferguson has more experience in European competitions. Heynckes is obviously at a disadvantage in this regard, so in terms of arranging troops, Ferguson is obviously better.
In particular, the idea of letting Ronaldo play on the left had a very obvious effect and caught Bayern off guard.
"We still have to equalize the score quickly, especially we have to defend and not lose the ball again." Wang Qingquan has a thorough understanding of the situation.
If we lose one goal, the situation can still be saved, but if we lose a second goal, it would be really fatal.
Not every game can stage a big comeback like the one in Istanbul.
…
Apparently, Heynckes thinks so too.
So, when Manchester United scored and their morale was high, Bayern did not adopt a crazy counterattack tactic, but instead played it safe.
Schweinsteiger and Modric both retreated, and Ribery and Robben, both on the wing, also actively retreated.
This allowed Bayern's overall formation to remain more compact, but the attack and front-court pressing also lost their effectiveness.
Su Dong was the only one left in the frontcourt looking for opportunities.
Manchester United also stopped while they were ahead and did not pursue the victory.
Ferguson, the old fox, understands the situation better than anyone else. He can see clearly when to retreat and when to charge better than anyone else.
When Bayern Munich collected the ball, he followed suit.
For a moment, the game became cautious again and the situation seemed a bit stalemate.
Su Dong kept running in front, patiently looking for opportunities.
He believes that Manchester United will definitely make mistakes.
