Chapter 809 Champions League 3 Consecutive Championships
Chapter 809 Champions League Three Consecutive Titles
Manchester United players, led by Harry Kane and Gundogan, rushed forward, hugged Bruno on the sidelines, and knocked him directly to the grass. Everyone rushed forward.
They are all so excited!
Even the live cameras on the sidelines captured the Manchester United players' revelry, with Gundogan shouting: "You are absolutely a genius! I knew you could be relied on at the critical moment!"
In front of the home team's coaching booth, Mourinho also seemed extremely excited.
This goal at this point in time is so crucial!
There are still more than ten minutes left in the game, but for Manchester United, with this goal, they can play more relaxedly and at the same time completely grasp the initiative of the game.
Even if Bayern Munich doesn't want to attack or press forward, it's no use!
Flick shook his head helplessly, turned around and walked back to the home team's coaching booth, muttering to himself: "I knew it, I always knew it..."
He didn't say what he knew, but it's not hard to guess.
Losing the ball at this critical juncture was definitely a painful blow to Bayern Munich. More importantly, he had to take the initiative to attack, because if he didn't press forward, Manchester United would completely run out of time in the game.
He has no choice!
But as long as he presses forward, Manchester United will be able to defend and counterattack.
Bruno's passing and scoring ability, Harry Kane's high ball advantage, Greenwood and Rashford's running ability, these are all quite deadly.
………………
For Flick, this is a dilemma.
Only by pressing forward and attacking can there be a chance to equalize the score, but after pressing forward, the danger of being counterattacked will be greater.
The current situation is completely different from when he lost the ball at the beginning, because at that time he had plenty of time to stabilize the situation, slowly adjust and play slowly, but now there are only ten minutes left.
He doesn't have time!
"Let Zirkzee come on, replace ..."
Who to replace? Flick hesitated.
At this moment, the two wingers on the field of Bayern Munich are substitutes. Lewandowski and Muller are key players and cannot be moved...
"...Gretzka!" Flick made an expression as if he was cutting off his own flesh with great pain.
Replace Goretzka with Zirkzee to strengthen the team's frontcourt attack.
Following Bayern Munich's substitution adjustments, Manchester United also made a substitution quickly, with Dalot replacing Cancelo.
This was a positional substitution, mainly because Cancelo's physical strength had been almost exhausted. Replacing him at this time was also to stabilize the team's defense.
When Dalot came on the pitch, he also brought Mourinho's instructions. The team began to retreat to their own half, allowing Bayern Munich to press forward and concentrate on counterattacks behind them.
This is rogue, right?
Yes, but it works really well!
………………
After Bayern Munich pressed forward, Manchester United maintained their defense while constantly threatening the opponent from behind.
Just five minutes later, after the Red Devils midfielder successfully intercepted the ball, Gundogan made a long pass to the left side behind the Bayern Munich defense.
Bruno quickly moved up the left side at the fastest speed, caught up with the ball before anyone else, and deliberately paused on the left side. After his teammates in the middle caught up, he quickly went to the bottom and made a curved pass with his left foot to the back point.
Harry Kane attracted the attention of Boateng and David Alaba, but Greenwood rushed up quietly and headed the ball from close range, breaking Bayern Munich's goal again.
3: 1!
The goal in the 88th minute of the game helped Manchester United lead by two goals. This was the first time Manchester United led by two goals in this game!
There is little time left and everyone can almost judge that Manchester United will defeat Bayern Munich and reach the top of Europe for three consecutive years.
Harry Kane, who scored the goal, was running on the field of Lisbon's Stadium of Light. Behind him, Manchester United players quickly rushed up and surrounded him. They were so excited.
Including injury time, there were only three or four minutes at most. According to common sense, it was almost impossible for Bayern Munich to score two goals in a row.
After all, in the Champions League final 21 years ago, Manchester United scored two goals in injury time and snatched the Champions League title from their opponent Bayern Munich.
With such a precedent, and Bayern Munich is also a strong and tenacious team, so when Bruno saw that his teammates were showing signs of being complacent, he quickly shouted to remind his teammates not to relax, because the game was not over yet and the championship was not yet fully in their hands, so don't waste it!
………………
This goal was a huge blow to the players of Bayern Munich. They knew very well what it meant for the score gap to be widened to two goals at this time.
On the sidelines, Flick also had a blank expression. His team performed very well in this game, but unfortunately the opponent was Manchester United, a team that was too strong.
There was three minutes of injury time for the entire match.
In the next three minutes of the game, Bayern Munich launched an almost crazy attack.
Manchester United had almost no attacking opportunities during this period and they retreated to defend across the board.
It only takes three minutes to park the bus!
The three minutes of injury time had expired. Because Bayern Munich now had the opportunity to control the ball and attack, the referee Osato did not immediately blow the whistle to end the game.
"Time's up! Hey! Time's up!" Mourinho shouted loudly on the sidelines, pointing at his watch.
Alphonso Davies passed Dalot on the wing and sent a long diagonal pass into the penalty area.

Lewandowski and Boateng competed for the header and De Gea kicked the ball out in the chaos. Then Kante cleared the ball with a big kick.
At this moment, "Toot! Toot! Toot!" two short and one long whistle sounds came from the whistle in Osato.
………………
When the Italian referee Orsato blew the whistle to end the game, Manchester United's coaching staff, players on the bench, and staff on the sidelines who had been waiting on the sidelines all rushed into the stadium.
All Manchester United fans were crazy. They defeated the powerful Bayern Munich and won three consecutive Champions League titles, accomplishing a feat that even the Champions League champion Real Madrid could not achieve!
This is also their sixth Champions League title in team history, surpassing their arch-rivals Liverpool and becoming the undisputed top club in England!
Bruno had just controlled the ball that Kante had cleared before the final whistle. At that time, he was still thinking that if he had the chance, he should have a hat trick in the Champions League final.
After all, this is a great achievement that he has not been able to achieve in the past three Champions League finals.
But the referee Osato obviously did not consider giving him such an opportunity, which made Bruno somewhat depressed, because he had a chance after Manchester United launched a counterattack.
That was a hat trick in the Champions League final.
If he remembered correctly, there were very few players who had performed hat tricks in the history of the Champions League final.
To be precise, since AC Milan legendary striker Prati performed a hat-trick in the 1969 Champions League final, no player has been able to achieve this achievement in the following fifty years.
Bruno scored twice in the 2014-2015 Champions League final, but failed to perform a hat trick.
………………
"The game is over!" the commentator announced excitedly in a long voice, "3:1, Manchester United won the final victory! Bruno scored two goals and assisted once, creating all three goals of Manchester United in this game. In the end, they defeated Bayern Munich 3:1 at the Lisbon Stadium and won the 2019-2020 UEFA Champions League!"
"This is the third consecutive year that Manchester United has won the Champions League! They have become the first team to win three consecutive Champions League titles since the Champions League was reformed in 1992! At the same time, they are also the fourth team in the -year history of the Champions League to win three consecutive Champions League titles!"
"What's even more incredible is that this is the second consecutive season that Manchester United has won the Champions League with a perfect record! Last season, Manchester United won all 13 Champions League games, becoming the first team to win the Champions League with a perfect record since its inception. This season, they went one step further and won all 11 Champions League games again, thus defending the Champions League title with a perfect record!"
"After defeating Bayern Munich today, Manchester United extended their winning streak in the Champions League to 27 games! The last time they failed to win in the Champions League was in the 2017-2018 Champions League quarter-final away against Roma. At that time, they won the first leg at home 4:1 against the Red Wolves. In the second leg, they retained their strength and drew 2:2 with Roma at the Olympic Stadium in Rome!"
"Another record held by Manchester United is even more amazing. They have won three consecutive Champions League titles without losing a single game! They have extended their unbeaten record in the Champions League to 37 games!"
………………
"Bruno, who scored twice in today's Champions League final, has become the player with the most goals in the Champions League final in history. He has already scored six goals in the Champions League final in his fourth appearance in the final, surpassing Cristiano Ronaldo to become the active player with the most goals in the Champions League final."
"Even looking back at the 65-year history of the Champions League, only two ancient legends, Di Stefano and Puskas, have scored more goals in the Champions League final than Bruno. These two legendary Real Madrid players have scored 7 goals each in the Champions League final. But Bruno is only 26 years old now. With Manchester United's strength, it is only a matter of time before he breaks the records of these two legendary Real Madrid players!"
"Today's Champions League title is also Bruno's fourth Champions League title in his career. This makes him equal with Cristiano Ronaldo and become the active player in the world football who has won the most Champions League titles. In the entire history of the Champions League, only Gento, who has won the Champions League six times, and Di Stefano, Maldini and Costacurta, who have won the Champions League five times, have won more Champions League titles than him!"
