"Vidic barely kicked the ball saved by Kameni out of the penalty area. Alonso came up and took a long shot! Kameni saved the ball under him again!"
"Ferdinand brought down Kak¨¢ the referee showed him a yellow card, Mallorca's free kick Ballack shot directly and hit the wall!"
"Kaka made a cross from the leftKlose grabbed the first point, but he did not shoot directly but headed the ball to the back point. Ferdinand and Henry jumped up at the same timeFerdinand grabbed the first point! Okay! It was dangerous, he almost headed the ball into his own goal, but fortunately Kameni got the ball!"
As Mallorca continued to attack, Manchester United's defense seemed a bit precarious. However, at this time, Manchester United's magic seemed to have completely burst out. Although Mallorca created a lot of opportunities, none of them were able to score Manchester United's goal. of¡¡
Forty minutes into the game, the physical fitness of Mallorca's players also declined a bit, and they began to slow down the pace of their attack. Manchester United took advantage of this opportunity to step forward and give their defense a certain strength. Breathing opportunity.
Rooney and others began to get more opportunities in the frontcourt, and Mallorca began to compete with the opponent in the midfield. Since they could not use the previous attack to expand their lead, entering the second half with the lead is also a good choice. .
Ferguson on the sidelines breathed a sigh of relief. Mallorca's fierce attack just now made him quite nervous. After all, if the second goal was lost, the game would be over - although Manchester United was not behind after falling behind by two goals. Even if he has a winning record, you must know that in the Champions League final, a side that is two goals behind has never been able to equalize the score. It will also make it impossible for him to inspire the players' fighting spirit. Even if Manchester United fans continue to believe in Ferguson, No matter how much you rely on Ferguson, you won't think that Ferguson can do something that no one has ever done before.
In a game like the Champions League final, two goals are a huge barrier.
Now we have finally withstood Mallorca's fierce attack for nearly 20 minutes. You must know that Mallorca's attack during this period is not the kind that looks fierce but actually attacks the penalty area and the 30-meter area a lot of times. It's not that kind of attack, but a fierce blow with fists and fists!
Being able to withstand such a blow from Mallorca itself proves how good Manchester United is now.
Now Mallorca has also begun to slow down. This is not to tempt Manchester United to attack, but because they also consumed a lot of physical energy in the previous attack. Although Manchester United was passively beaten, it also consumed a lot, but Mallorca The consumption of cards is also huge. For Mallorca, they also need to take a rest now.
Now is a good time for Manchester United to press forward. If they can equalize the score before the end of the first half, it will be a perfect result.
Of course, we also need to be careful about Mallorca's counterattack, so Manchester United's offense will not invest so many troops.
Under the command of Ferguson, Manchester United launched an attack, of course a limited counterattack. The trident in the frontcourt is a must. Scholes plus Evra on the left, this is all Manchester United's offense. troops.
However, the offensive ability of this offensive lineup is not bad, especially the running back and forth of several people in the frontcourt, which caused a lot of trouble for Mallorca's defense. In this regard, Mallorca stayed in the midfield and strengthened the penalty area. The forward defense does not give the opponent a chance to penetrate into the penalty area.
The three Manchester United players are very good at threatening, breaking through and long-range shots in the penalty area. Strengthening defense at the front of the penalty area is a good way. If they cross the ball from the wing, Jose feels that his defense is not Don¡¯t worry about the opponent¡¯s cross from the wing
So far, Mallorca has done a pretty good job defensively.
So much so that when Evra and Scholes, who assisted on the left, made a two-on-one cooperation and then broke through along the left, Jose did not notice any danger.
When Evra broke through, Ronaldo began to circle and run into the penalty area. Puerta followed him closely. Matias and Pepe were both focused on running in the penalty area. With Rooney and Tevez, Puerta was the only one to defend Ronaldo.
It's not that Matias and Pepe's focus is not good, but because Ronaldo rarely seemed to enter the penalty area before, Matias and Pepe's attention was attracted by Rooney and Tevez. The two of them Although he is not a very good header player, he is also good at heading the ball. If he is grabbed by these two people in the penalty area, he will be quite threatening to the goal.
At this moment, Evra broke through to the bottom line, then raised his foot and passed the ball quickly!
Maicon¡¯s interception was slow.In the next step, the ball flew past him and then quickly flew into the penalty area.
Matias just looked up and judged that the cross was definitely not coming to the center, which meant that he couldn't intercept the ball in the middle even if he jumped up. Then he saw Ronaldo suddenly He accelerated and used his body to push Puerta aside!
Matias immediately rushed towards Ronaldo. What he judged was that Ronaldo could grab the first spot at that position. Now he was still a little far away from Ronaldo. He hoped that he could reach the spot in time.
The one who is closer to Ronaldo than him is Pepe. However, Pepe is worse than Matias in judging the landing point, so even though he is faster and closer than Matias, it is difficult to stop him midway. Ronaldo's shot!
However, Matias was still a step slower. Although Puerta was struggling behind him to interfere, Ronaldo still relied on his own strength to jump up, and then faced the falling ball and quickly shook his head to attack the goal!
This header Ronaldo relied entirely on the power of his waist and abdomen. The ball quickly changed direction, and then plunged into the top corner of the goal before Van der Sar pounced!
In the 45th minute, before the end of the first half, Manchester United equalized the score with a beautiful header from Cristiano Ronaldo!
"Cristiano Ronaldo! The eighth goal in the Champions League, the 42nd goal in the entire season! His condition is really good, and he scored a key equalizer in such a crucial game. Goal! Ronaldo began to show the strength worthy of his last name! Manchester United equalized the score in a bad situation! This was really a huge blow to Mallorca. After missing several consecutive goals that could establish the victory, Instead, they were equalized by Manchester United, which will cause huge trouble for their halftime adjustments!"
Amidst the exclamations of the commentators, Ronaldo roared and rushed to the stands where the Manchester United fans were sitting and waved his fists. The Manchester United fans also gave him the most enthusiastic cheers. He had been booed by them in the stands. The kid who showed off his legs and fists has completely matured. He no longer has those fancy feet to show off, but he can contribute a lot of goals. Manchester United fans naturally prefer the latter, a player who twists his legs into twists and If they were asked to choose a player who could score thirty or forty goals in a season, they would definitely choose the latter.
"Hell, they actually equalized the score!" Jose waved his hand violently, but soon regained his composure and began to rub his chin and think about it.
Seeing him like this, for some reason, all the Mallorca players on the bench began to feel relieved - the boss's appearance proved that he was thinking of a way. Was there ever a time when Jose couldn't think of a way? At least the Mallorca players don¡¯t know that¡
A head coach who can always lead the team to win has such magic power, even if he doesn¡¯t actually come up with any effective methods, as long as he smiles and tells the players, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, just keep playing like this, the victory will be "Belongs to us", then the players seemed to be blessed with brilliant light, bursting out in better condition and courage than usual.
Ferguson glanced at Jose from a distance. A calm Jose worried him more than an angry Jose - but in any case, it was a good thing for Manchester United to equalize the score in the first half. A good thing, at least during the halftime break, he was able to adjust more easily.
Shortly after the restart in Mallorca, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half. Applause broke out in the stands, which was given to the players of both sides, even though only two goals were scored in the first half. Moreover, the process of scoring the goal seemed a bit surprising, but the entire first half of the game was quite exciting. Both sides showed extremely high standards in both offense and defense. From this perspective, the championship As the final of the highest level European club competition, the Cup final is indeed well-deserved!
It's just that many commentators are regretting that there is nothing wrong with this game being a wonderful game from the first half alone, but as a final, it seems that there should be some other elements to make it possible. People find it more enjoyable As for what elements it is, they can't tell. They just feel that such an important final should not look like this. There should be some other elements
In their anticipation, the players from both sides slowly walked off the field, and then walked to their locker rooms to prepare for the next game.
"To a large extent, our performance in the first half was quite good. It's just that I want to criticize you two for conceding the goal."
Jose confronts Matia in the locker roomSi and Pepe said: "Before the game, I clearly said to be careful about Cristiano Ronaldo's header. Why didn't you two mark him when the cross was passed? Antonio has done his best. , he made no mistakes, the mistake only lies with you two Of course, I won't care too much about what has happened. What you need to pay attention to is that in the second half, such mistakes cannot be made again. Do you understand? Manchester United When a cross is made from one side, the full-back on the other side must withdraw into the penalty area in time to avoid missing people in the penalty area. As for the Portuguese kidPepe, I leave him to you, the degree of flexibility is up to you. Maybe you are a little worse, but your strength and jumping ability are not much worse than him. I don't expect you to be able to defend him on the ground, but in the air, you must not give him any chance."
Pepe nodded vigorously: "Boss, leave it to me! Just think of it as a display before I go to the Portuguese national team I will let them see that it is absolutely not a good idea to choose me for the Portuguese national team. a mistake!"
Senna grinned on the sidelines. Perhaps he was the one who could understand Pepe best, while Kaka and Maicon sighed in their hearts. As teammates of Pepe and Senna, they naturally knew the strength of these two people. , it¡¯s a pity the Brazilian national team just doesn¡¯t call them two, what can they do
"Concentrate in the second half and then kill them, do you understand?"
"Understood!" Mallorca's players responded in unison.
