Chapter 2164: The upstarts are coming, Manchester United advances to the crucial battle of the Champ

Old Trafford is a holy place for many Manchester United fans.

Some people who have the means will even rent a venue here to get married.

Hong Kong Island's famous singer Hacken Lee took his wedding photos here...

Banana is considered a relatively famous Manchester United fan on TikTok.

Recently, he also contacted the official and arranged a jersey collaboration, which is considered to be a success!

Of course, there are at least two or three hundred bloggers like Banana.

After all, Manchester United is the king of traffic!

This Champions League round of 16 knockout match is undoubtedly crucial for Manchester United this season.

Just like Paris Saint-Germain bought Neymar not for the round of 16 in the Champions League, Manchester United brought Ronaldo back naturally with the goal of defending the title.

But this year's Champions League is only stronger than previous years!

There was also a lot of related news before the game. Of course, in addition to Manchester United's game, other knockout matches also attracted a lot of traffic.

Juventus and Tottenham drew 2-2 in the first leg. In this game, Tottenham are at home and will definitely want to go further.

The first leg between Chelsea and Barcelona was also tied 1-1. Now Chelsea is heading to Spain to challenge Barcelona away, and no one knows whether the Blues can get through.

But the most eye-catching game is definitely Manchester United.

Of course, today, March 3th, is not only White Valentine’s Day, but also Pi Day and even Einstein’s birthday.

After a short rest and adjustment, Manchester United players will continue to play with all their main players, as Ancelotti said.

According to the upcoming event schedule, regardless of the result against Paris Saint-Germain, he will play as a substitute in the next FA Cup match against Brighton.

This was also the news announced by Ancelotti within the team before the game.

Of course, the meaning is to tell the players - fight hard and don't hold back!

Manchester United's morale was very high at this time. After all, they had just beaten their arch-rival Liverpool 5-0 in the league. It was no exaggeration to say that they were united in purpose.

Mancini's return to Manchester also attracted many Manchester City fans to the airport to pick him up.

At the pre-match press conference, Mancini also thanked Manchester City fans.

But the focus soon shifted to this focal battle.

Mancini first said that he was looking forward to competing with Manchester United, which is in the best form, so that the victory would be more convincing.

Secondly, he emphasized that tomorrow's game will be one of the most crucial games of the season, both for Paris fans and for France as a whole. I think we have the opportunity to go further!

Finally, there is the issue of tactics. This time he did not say what offensive tactics he would use, but said he would keep it confidential.

These words ignited the passion of Paris fans.

Although Manchester United is performing well on all fronts, it is still a spent force.

The players' mental state is in trouble.

Especially in the league game before the match against Liverpool, we almost lost.

So many people said that game was a last hurrah.

Ancelotti was as calm as ever. "Paris Saint-Germain is a very strong team. We had a very difficult game in the first round. Even if this game is played at Old Trafford, we don't have much advantage. After all, we just played a difficult game, and Paris Saint-Germain is well rested... But our goal has never changed. I hope that at the end of the game, we can get the result we want!"

In the last game, Mancini let fans all over the world see Paris Saint-Germain's offensive capabilities, but today Mancini plans to do the opposite and play a counterattack away from home!

As for the inspiration for this tactical arrangement, it came from the Red Devils derby.

Liverpool had more possession in the first half of the Red Devils derby, but had few real chances.

Mancini clearly wants to learn from the foreigners in order to defeat them!

Of course, there is no such saying in foreign countries.

In Mancini's own words - it would be more fulfilling to beat them using their own moves.

November 3, Old Trafford.

After the expansion, 8 people were still not enough, and there were still many people holding signs at the door asking for tickets.

But those fans have already arrived at the door, so naturally they are unwilling to sell tickets.

Unless - you have to pay more!

Some fans living in Manchester are still willing to transfer. After all, even if they don’t watch the game at Old Trafford, they can still go to the surrounding bars to watch the game.

The atmosphere was equally warm.

In the player tunnel, players from both teams had already come out one after another.

Neymar was much more low-key than before the previous game and did not mention going to the nightclub again.

The main reason was that after the last game, a video of him drinking beer with three young girls in a bar was posted online, which attracted a lot of criticism.

Many fans even asserted that Neymar was finished.

Neymar was very unhappy about this, but he still had to put on a show.

He trained actively last week and maintained good condition.

Of course, deep down in his heart, he also wanted to defeat Ye Chen and enter the next round.

They say he made the wrong decision to leave Barcelona...

To be honest, he himself felt a little regretful.

If he had known Messi was going to run away, he would not have left Barcelona.

But Messi's choice is really speechless.

If Neymar's choice was wrong, then Messi's choice was completely wrong.

In the words of many netizens - this is the first time I've seen someone chasing and beating someone else, he's really stubborn!

Marquinhos, who provoked Ye Chen in the last game, has also become much more honest. At least he didn't say harsh words to Ye Chen again.

Come to think of it, the effect of the last round of threats was not very good.

Ye Chen scored a goal as usual, but the defense he led conceded three goals.

So Marquinhos decided not to provoke this big devil today...

"Zhongyang TV station! Zhongyang TV station!"

"Welcome everyone to watch the second round of the Champions League round of 16 on time. Today we bring you the match between Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain at home!"

"I'm today's host He Wei, and next to me is my partner Xu Yang!"

Xu Yang smiled and waved to the camera, "Good morning everyone!"

"Everyone knows that last season Paris Saint-Germain spent 500 million on a player, which helped them to advance smoothly in the Champions League group stage, beating Bayern to take first place in the group, but they just happened to run into Manchester United, who finished second in the group!"

"Manchester United also spent nearly 300 million euros last year. I believe such a strong confrontation will definitely produce brilliant sparks!"

"In the first leg, Paris Saint-Germain tied Manchester United 3-3 at home thanks to Martial's equalizing goal. Can Manchester United defend their home glory now that they are back at Old Trafford?"

"Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides first!"

"De Gea is the goalkeeper."

"Cancelo is the left back, Maguire and Pepe are the double center backs, and Valencia is the right back."

"The three midfielders are Rice, Modric and De Bruyne."

"Rashford on the left, Cristiano Ronaldo on the forward, Ye Chen on the right."

"The only change from the last Reds game is that young player Rice is used in the defensive midfielder position instead of B Ronaldo!"

"Paris Saint-Germain also made minor adjustments to their formation."

"In goalkeeper it's still Areola."

"Left-back Verchiche, double centre-backs Marquinhos and Thiago Silva, right-back Alves."

Except for Belchiche who is a Spaniard, the other three in this defense line are Brazilian players.

"The three midfielders are Thiago Motta, Rabiot and Verratti."

"Neymar on the left, Martial on the striker, Di Maria on the right."

Before the game, Ronaldo and Di Maria hugged each other and chatted for a while. They were a golden pair in Real Madrid, but now they are going their separate ways.

It's somewhat sad!
