Chapter 602 Zidane's Metaphysics

When the referee showed De Gea the red card, Bruno was also stunned.

Afterwards, as the captain, he negotiated with the referee Mazichi, but to no avail.

Bruno had expected this. After all, in the era when VAR was not widely used in football matches, the referee basically would not change the penalty decision.

Moreover, Bruno also knew that there was no big problem with the referee's decision, and De Gea's foul was unquestionable. In that case, whether to give a yellow card or a red card was entirely up to the referee's personal judgment, and any result was acceptable.

Bruno's protest was just to put some pressure on the referee, hoping that in the subsequent games, the referee would make some favorable choices for Manchester United in officiating, and he did not expect him to really change the decision.

After some protest, Bruno left the penalty area and looked at De Gea who was sent off, feeling dejected.

Could it be that Zidane's Real Madrid is really destined by heaven, or is it metaphysics?

In another time and space, in the game between Liverpool and Real Madrid, not only was the main scorer of Liverpool injured and left the field early, but goalkeeper Karius also made a stupid own goal assist with a thrown ball, as well as an extremely low-level mistake with butter hands, which led to Liverpool's 1:3 defeat.

Now, although Manchester United and Real Madrid fought back and forth in the offense, at the critical moment, De Gea lost his mind and pulled Bale down in the penalty area after he had been passed, giving the opponent a red card.

Obviously, this is the stupidest choice.

At that time, even if the opponent scored a goal, it would be better than giving away a red dot meal, right?

However, De Gea ultimately made the worst choice.

Could this be the so-called "fate"? Could this be metaphysics?

………………

Fans on the Internet were also very disappointed with the result and were filled with indignation.

"Damn it! Huang Gou has also activated the godfather mode just like Ba Sha! They are all fake Western teams, everyone run!"

"So shameless! So despicable!"

"Aha! I told you the yellow dog would definitely win, right?"

"It is said that before the game, Che had already decided that Real Madrid would be the champion. Don't ask me why, I don't know either!"

"UEFA is creating a god. Previously, Godfather Putin created Barcelona. Now Godfather Che is preparing to create another Real Madrid?"

"I think it was Qi Xuanzong who activated his metaphysics. Otherwise, why did De Gea suddenly do something stupid and tackle Bale?"

"A traitor! De Gea is a traitor! Before this Champions League final, several Spanish media outlets reported that De Gea was about to transfer to Real Madrid. The Duck is submitting his allegiance to his new club!"

……

Since the Manchester United fax machine incident in the summer of 2015, De Gea finally chose to renew his contract with Manchester United until 2019.

Last summer, when De Gea had only two years left on his contract, Manchester United wanted to re-sign him, but De Gea chose to refuse.

As this season is coming to an end and De Gea's contract with Manchester United is entering the last year, Manchester United club once again proposed to De Gea to renew his contract, but media reports said that De Gea once again refused to renew his contract.

In recent years, Real Madrid has never stopped trying to poach De Gea.

This is why fans say De Gea is a traitor.

………………

Mourinho was so emotional after being awarded the penalty that he roared at the fourth official for a full minute, but to no avail and he was quickly pulled back by assistant coach Carrick.

After Manchester United is destined to lose a player, it cannot lose another head coach, otherwise it will be really doomed and such a game cannot be played.

Mourinho made a quick decision after calming down and let substitute goalkeeper Romero play.

Because goalkeeper De Gea was sent off, a player from another position needed to be substituted to allow Romero to come on as a substitute. Mourinho chose to replace central defender Maguire. This was a very risky move, and it was obvious that he had decided to go all out and fail.

It was not the first time that he had been so crazy. In the past, when Manchester United was trailing in the score near the end of the game, he would often send a large number of forwards to attack the opponent's defense. For example, in one game he put five forwards on the court and finally successfully completed a reversal.

In the Champions League final, Mourinho didn't care about the impact of the lack of a central defender on the team's back line. If Manchester United couldn't score at this time, it would be no different from death.

De Gea walked off the field with his head down, looking frustrated. Mourinho took the initiative to hug him, then patted him on the back and motioned him to go back to the locker room.

Maguire trotted to the sidelines and completed the handover with Romero, who then ran back to the goal to prepare to defend the penalty.

………………

Real Madrid sent Cristiano Ronaldo to take the penalty.

In the Champions League scoring competition, Cristiano Ronaldo ranks first with 15 goals, 2 goals ahead of Bruno. If he scores this penalty, he will basically lock in the Champions League Golden Boot this season.

Ronaldo took the ball from his teammate, but unexpectedly gave it to Bale.

The BBC combination is the Real Madrid trident consisting of Bale, Benzema and Ronaldo. Their partnership has allowed Real Madrid to reach the finals four times in the past five years and has helped the Galacticos win the Champions League three times, which can be said to make the entire football world tremble.

This combination has created countless gorgeous attacks on the football field and has become a magic weapon for Real Madrid to win the championship.

The achievements of the BBC combination are unquestionable, but the relationship between Bale and Ronaldo has always been controversial.

The media has repeatedly exposed the internal strife of the BBC, and the relationship between Bale and Ronaldo has also been in crisis many times.

The earliest time was in the second season when Bale joined Real Madrid. At that time, because Bale played more independently on the field, Ronaldo had a bad face many times.

This season, the relationship between Bale and Ronaldo has become extremely tense. In addition, Ronaldo's relationship with Florentino Perez is not good either. There have been many reports in the media that Real Madrid will clean up Ronaldo after the end of the season and rebuild Real Madrid with Bale as the core.

But what no one expected was that at this time, Ronaldo would take the initiative to give up the penalty kick. This is really the sun rising in the west.

Perhaps, this is Ronaldo taking the initiative to resolve the deadlock between the two?

………………

Those protesting Manchester United players have been driven out of the penalty area by the referee. No matter how unconvinced they are, they can only accept this result.

Romero, who had just come on, had only warmed up for three minutes and was completely unable to stop Bale's shot. The Welsh winger easily kicked the ball into the goal.

"GOOOOOOOOOOOL!! Gareth Bale! Gareth Bale! The Welsh star who just returned from injury scored twice in less than 15 minutes after coming on as a substitute!"

"Real Madrid reversed the situation and took the lead 3:2! This is the first time they took the lead in this game! Although it came a little late, it was finally before the end of the game!"

"Real Madrid fans can now breathe a sigh of relief, knowing their team has the upper hand!"

"In the 3th minute, Real Madrid led Manchester United 2: thanks to a penalty kick!"

……

Amid the cheers, only the English commentator Andy Gray was still loudly criticizing the referee's decision: "This is such a great decision... Well, a wonderful final is ruined!"

He was still upset about the referee's decision which did not pay any attention to the "art of law enforcement".

………………

Just as Real Madrid players were celebrating the goal, Mourinho made another adjustment. He replaced the goal scorer Mbappe with Ibrahimovic.

Manchester United changed its formation from 433 to 333. Among the three forwards, Ibrahimovic was in the middle, Rashford was on the right, and Harry Kane was on the left. At the same time, Gundogan, Bruno and Kante formed a parallel midfield.

Mourinho is going to fight to the death!

Commentators from all over the world were also stunned by Mourinho's substitution.

"Oh! Mourinho's two substitutions are such a crazy decision!"

"Unexpected Mourinho! Respectable Manchester United! I think no matter what the final result is, Mourinho and his Manchester United have won the respect of the whole world. With one man less, Mourinho did not shrink back and defend like he did eight years ago at Inter Milan. Instead, he chose to attack bravely! Even if he fails, it is an honorable defeat!"

"Mourinho is making a desperate bet. At this time, Manchester United really has no better choice except attacking. But this kind of desperate bet seems to have a tragic color..."

"Mourinho replaced Mbappe and Maguire and sent Ibrahimovic to continue to strengthen the attack. There are still more than ten minutes left in the game. Can they get what they want?"

……

………………

After seeing Mourinho's substitutions, many people expressed respect for Manchester United's courage, but in fact they had already determined in their hearts that Real Madrid would win the championship. The powerful Real Madrid will win the 13th Champions League trophy in their team history.

With three defenders and one man missing, they still want to beat Real Madrid?

It's simply a fantasy!

Manchester United fans in the stands have the same confusion. Whether it is the current situation or Mourinho's gambling-like substitutions, all signs indicate that the game is becoming more unfavorable for Manchester United.

Is this the end?

Just give up?

Under such circumstances, what else can Manchester United do to reverse this unfavorable situation?

Many of Manchester United's own fans thought about it for a long time and came to the conclusion that no matter what they did, there was little hope. Maybe they would lose today, in the last game of the 2017-2018 season...
