Chapter 599 Times have changed!
"The ball goes in --!" He Wei stretched out his voice and shouted loudly, "Manchester United is leading Real Madrid 2:1!! Brave Manchester United!! How many people thought before the game that Manchester United could lead Real Madrid 2:1 in the Champions League final? But this is the fact! They are leading for the second time!"
The Kiev Olympic Stadium was like an erupting volcano, with cheers, singing, boos, applause, and insults all intertwined together, making it impossible to tell which specific sound was which.
Harry Kane, who scored the goal, was hugging Cancelo, who assisted him, while Manchester United's substitutes all rushed out of the bench screaming excitedly.
"Unbelievable! Unbelievable! Unbelievable!!" British commentator Andy Gray shouted "Unbelievable" three times in a row.
It's not just about how brilliant and incredible this goal was, but also because Manchester United actually led Real Madrid twice in the Champions League final, leaving the powerful Real Madrid to play as a chaser, which is really "unbelievable".
"Wonderful offensive organization! Who says only Real Madrid and Barcelona can play such football? We at Manchester United can do it too!"
Andy Gray has only one feeling right now - awesome!
Before the game, everyone said that Real Madrid's victory was a foregone conclusion, the only suspense was how many goals they would win. But now? Real Madrid has never led Manchester United even once!
"Oh oh oh oh -!! Beautiful! Long live Manchester United!! Well done!!"
The fans of Manchester United were the most excited. They cheered heartily in the stands and even became a little incoherent.
………………
In the far east, the commentator He Wei's voice was transmitted across thousands of miles of space through television signals and reached the ears of fans in front of the TV.
"No matter what the final result is, Manchester United, led by Mourinho, has won the respect of the whole world with their practical actions."
"Real Madrid is a world-class club. They have the whole of Real Madrid and Spain behind them. But many people forget that Manchester United is also a world-class club!"
"Although Manchester United fell into silence in the years after Ferguson retired, they quickly revived after Ferguson took over Old Trafford. Last season, they became the first team in history to win the Premier League, FA Cup and League Cup, and also won the Europa League, becoming the first team in England to win six titles."
"This season, Manchester United has performed even better. They have defended all three domestic titles and have made it all the way to the final in the Champions League. They have also remained unbeaten so far this season, setting a record of 64 unbeaten games in all competitions in a single season and 68 unbeaten games across seasons. This is something that super giants like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich have never achieved!"
"The whole world remembers AC Milan's 58 unbeaten games in Serie A and Arsenal's 49 unbeaten games in the Premier League. However, both teams only remained unbeaten in the league, while Manchester United remained unbeaten in all competitions. This is undoubtedly much more difficult!"
………………
"However, Manchester United's achievements have not been treated fairly. The Internet is full of voices that belittle Manchester United, believing that Mourinho's team is conservative and anti-football. For this reason, they even ignore the fact that Manchester United has scored 38 goals in 121 Premier League games this season, tying the single-season goal record of the top five leagues; in the Champions League, they have also scored 12 goals in the previous 37 games, making them the only team among the 32 teams in the Champions League to score more than 30 goals; in addition, they have scored 15 goals in the FA Cup, 18 goals in the League Cup, plus 2 goals in the Community Shield and 4 goals in the European Super Cup, as well as 2 goals today. Manchester United has scored 2017 goals in the 2018-199 season and is about to break the 200-goal mark!"
"Manchester United didn't face any top teams on their way to the Champions League final. The strongest team was Manchester City, which had never proven itself in the Champions League. Compared with Real Madrid, which qualified from the group of death and then beat Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus, Bayern Munich and other top teams, Manchester United's road to promotion was really lucky."
"Moreover, in recent years, the performance of Premier League teams in European competitions has been unsatisfactory. Since Chelsea won the Champions League in the 2011-2012 season, no team has been able to reach the Champions League final in the past five years. Only Chelsea and Manchester City have made it to the semi-finals, and both teams have only made it to the semi-finals once. The once top league has not only been overtaken by La Liga, but has even been suppressed by the Bundesliga and Serie A."
………………
"That's why many people online and in the media say that Manchester United was able to win the Premier League title unbeaten not because they were strong, but because other Premier League teams were weaker; they were able to reach the Champions League final not because they were strong enough, but because of luck!"
"These people forget that in football, luck is also part of strength!"
"Just like today's game, Manchester United actually led Real Madrid twice in the finals. Was there a factor of luck in this? But who among those who have watched the game dares to say that Manchester United is not strong? I think even if it was Barcelona and Bayern Munich, they might not be able to lead Real Madrid twice in the game, right?"
"Besides, why does luck always favor Manchester United? As the saying goes, opportunities always favor those who are prepared. If Manchester United is really weak and useless, I'm afraid they won't be able to seize the opportunity when it comes!"
He Wei started to be sentimental again, but everyone liked him being so sentimental, and those who were being sentimental felt very happy.
Yes, because Real Madrid has defeated top teams such as Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus and Bayern Munich along the way, showing a strong momentum. Everyone is saying that Real Madrid is invincible and unbeatable. Winning three consecutive Champions League titles and creating a dynasty belonging to Real Madrid is now.
However, the devilish Manchester United slapped twice in the face all those who thought so!
………………
Many people were surprised that Manchester United once again led Real Madrid. Those who had been very sure that Real Madrid would win the game were even more surprised.
It’s not that they don’t know the strength of Manchester United, but compared with Real Madrid, what is Manchester United’s strength?
With such a powerful force, they can completely suppress Manchester United in terms of strength. How could they possibly give Manchester United a chance to turn things around?
But in fact, Manchester United did not turn things around because they were not in an oppressed position from the beginning.
Now it is Real Madrid that needs to turn things around!
Zidane was standing on the sidelines, feeling very dissatisfied with the goal that had just been lost.
From the moment Manchester United launched this attack, Real Madrid seemed to have completely fallen into the opponent's rhythm. In this series of passes, they didn't even touch the ball!
In the past, it was always the Real Madrid superstars who teased their opponents like this. When will it be the opponents' turn to tease them like this?
"This is really a wonderful collaboration..."
The TV began to replay the goal. Unlike normal replays which were in slow motion, this time the broadcaster deliberately switched it to fast forward so that the audience could see the entire process of the goal in a short period of time.
In fast forward, the ball was passed back and forth between Manchester United players, but the Real Madrid players couldn't even touch the ball. They could only run around due to Manchester United's passing of the ball back and forth.
After a series of "bang bang bang bang" passes, Bruno suddenly found a gap and completed a straight pass, helping Cancelo assist Harry Kane to score.
"We often see such a pleasing attack from Real Madrid and Barcelona, but not often from their opponents. Manchester United's brave team completely subverted our cognition. I have to say that they are indeed qualified to enter the Champions League final to challenge the powerful Real Madrid!"
"This is impossible! Why did Real Madrid lead twice?!" Real Madrid fans couldn't believe their eyes. They held their heads in their hands in pain in the stands.
………………
In fact, some Real Madrid players couldn't believe this. They thought Manchester United would cause them some trouble, but they still scored the goal. They never thought that they would fall behind twice.
It was really beyond their expectations that the game would end up like this.
As Manchester United players celebrated their second goal, Ramos gathered Real Madrid players together and said, "Guys, admit it, this opponent is very strong!"
After Ramos finished speaking, no one said a word. These powerful and proud superstars who had won two Champions League titles in the past two years, reached the Champions League final four times in the past five years, and were praised by the whole world, all lowered their heads at this moment.
"We can't easily defeat him using only half of our strength." Ramos continued, "We must deal with them with the same attitude as we dealt with Barcelona and Bayern Munich. They... are even stronger than Barcelona and Bayern Munich. Their strength is not weaker than ours, and they even surpass us!"
"I know it's hard to accept this, but we have to admit that this is probably the truth!"
"Look at the goal they just scored. If I were a fan, I would applaud and cheer for them. It's so beautiful!"
"But isn't that what we do? Get our football out, guys!"
"Don't let the whole world laugh at us! Because the whole world still thinks that we are stronger than them, so we deserve to win. If we can't win... you will know how the world will judge us."
Ramos waved his fist and shouted, "Attack! Attack the way we are best!"
