Chapter 889 Season 7 Champion
Chapter 889 Season Seven Champion
Manchester United's attack seemed to be in a stalemate. Kovacic successfully stopped him and Manchester United's fast break could not be launched.
Just when everyone was thinking this, he suddenly pushed the ball out with his right foot, then jumped forward, temporarily breaking away from Kovacic's defense.
Kovacic thought he was going to run away with the ball, so he rushed out and tackled the ball at his feet.
Bruno didn't run with the ball, but turned around and passed the ball. He rushed out, caught up with the football, turned around, swung his left foot and kicked the ball.
Using the force of turning, he passed the ball forward.
It was an overhead ball, the ball went over the heads of Chelsea defenders and fell directly into the empty area on the side.
It was powerful and fast, but not very high and the arc was not very large. Such a pass did not give Chelsea's defenders much time to adjust, and Luke Shaw had already rushed over.
Chelsea's Brazilian center back Thiago Silva's first reaction when he saw Luke Shaw receive the ball was to raise his hand to indicate that the ball was offside.
In his opinion, it was indeed the case, because when Luke Shaw received the ball, he was already behind the entire Chelsea defense line. Although the distance from behind them to the bottom line was not long, it was still an offside!
But neither the referee nor the linesman said anything, the referee did not blow the whistle and the linesman did not raise the flag.
………………
Thiago Silva would not have seen that at the moment Bruno passed the ball, Luke Shaw was still in front of the defense line. He was sprinting at high speed but did not pass any Chelsea player.
After Bruno kicked the ball out, he just broke through the entire Chelsea defense line and appeared behind them.
When he arrived at the landing point of the football, the football also fell down. The cooperation between one man and one ball was perfect!
Luke Shaw did not continue dribbling after receiving the ball, nor did he make any adjustments, nor did he stop suddenly to bring the ball back. He just kicked the ball directly and passed it to the middle!
Chelsea's defense showed their divided state at this sudden moment.
Thiago Silva raised his arms in despair, indicating that the ball was offside.
Azpilicueta made a flying tackle from behind, trying to stop the cross.
Chilwell stood there in a daze, not knowing what was going on.
While trying desperately to return to defense, Rudiger reached out and tried to grab Harry Kane's fluttering jersey.
Goalkeeper Dean Henderson rushed to the ground to block the cross that was close to the ground...
The football first passed over Azpilicueta's raised right leg, drew a clear outward arc on the green grass, and then brushed past goalkeeper Dean Henderson's hand.
In the end, Harry Kane was tackled by Rudiger and managed to put the ball into the net at the moment before he completely lost his balance!
………………
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLL!! 2:0!"
Amid the cheers of the stadium, Kovacic looked back at the goal that had been breached, and then turned to look at Bruno who was sitting on the ground because of the difficult move of completing a 180-degree turn and passing the ball.
He was kneeling next to Bruno, his tackle failed, and he was unable to stop the unexpected pass, which resulted in the team's second goal.
F**K!
He grabbed a handful of turf and held it tightly in his palm.
I’m so unwilling!
Harry Kane's goal was a blow to Chelsea. They didn't expect Manchester United to score a goal in such a situation. What they didn't expect was Bruno's 360-degree turn pass.
Kovacic reacted immediately but didn't stop it. He had previously boasted to Jorginho that he could definitely stop Bruno. Now? He just hoped that he wouldn't be laughed at by his teammates.
The cheers of Manchester United fans in the stands resounded through the sky, while Chelsea fans were silent.
"It seems like Manchester United is indeed Chelsea's nemesis! Look at their football, it makes Chelsea very uncomfortable!"
"Bruno once again showed his master-level passing skills and insight! And the Manchester United team is very in tune with his ideas."
"I feel that there is no rival for him in the entire world of football! He is now the number one star in football!"
……
Praising Bruno is a routine job for commentators, because almost every goal of Manchester United is directly or indirectly related to him.
When Harry Kane celebrated the goal, he first looked for Luke Shaw who passed the ball to him, and then the two of them ran towards Bruno. They both knew that without Bruno, the chance to score could not have been created.
………………
When the game restarted, Mourinho, who had established a two-goal lead, began to decide on substitutions. He first replaced Mbappe with Greenwood, and then a few minutes later, replaced Gundogan with young player Bellingham.
These two young players are players that Mourinho is optimistic about. They are also future stars that the team focuses on training and they are already playing very important roles in the first team.
In this world-renowned game, when the team has already secured victory, giving them some playing time can be considered a reward for them as well as training.
After replacing two players in a row, Manchester United inevitably had some problems with their coordination on the field, which also gave Chelsea an opportunity.
In the 78th minute of the game, Chelsea finally scored a goal with the assist of Jorginho, through Havertz.
This goal gave Tuchel and Chelsea a chance to equalize the score. With injury time, there were still about 15 minutes left before the end of the game, so Tuchel quickly made another substitution. He first replaced Werner with veteran Giroud, and then replaced the goal scorer with winger Ziyech to continue to strengthen the attacking force.
On the Manchester United side, Mourinho was also making personnel adjustments. He replaced Rashford with Mahrez and continued to maintain pressure on Chelsea's defense.
Both teams had chances to score in the last ten minutes of the game, but neither team managed to find the net.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, Manchester United won 2:1 and they defeated their arch-rivals Chelsea for the second time in the Champions League final!
"Congratulations to Manchester United! They have won the seventh Champions League trophy in the club's history! They have also tied with AC Milan and become the second team with the most Champions League titles in history, second only to Real Madrid, which has won twelve times!"
"This is also the second time Manchester United has beaten Chelsea in the Champions League final, following the rainy night in Moscow in 2008."
"Thirteen years ago, another Portuguese player led Manchester United to defeat Chelsea and reach the top of Europe, announcing the Red Devils' return to the top of Europe. Thirteen years later, another Portuguese player led the team to defeat Chelsea, allowing Manchester United to win the Champions League for four consecutive years and reach the highest peak in Manchester United's century-long history!"
"This is such a wonderful game! Bruno of Manchester United shines! He once again led the team to the last laugh against Chelsea! It seems that Manchester United will continue to use the title of 'Chelsea Nemesis'!"
……
Amid cheers, Manchester United players celebrated their victory on the field.
Today, not only did the team win the Champions League, the club's highest honor, but it was also a year and a half after the epidemic affected world football that fans returned to watch top competitions. This is undoubtedly very meaningful.
In this case, a victory and a Champions League trophy as a gift is simply the most appropriate!
………………
"This is Bruno's 30th championship trophy since he joined Manchester United. In his career, he has won 41 club championships and four national team championships! In addition, he has two Portuguese national youth team championships, and the total number of championships has reached 47! At the age of 26, Bruno has surpassed former Barcelona defender Alves to become the player with the most championships in world football."
"Manchester United has won 93 championship trophies, surpassing Real Madrid, which won 91 championship trophies, and became the team to win the championship trophy in the top five leagues!"
"What's more worth mentioning is that today's Champions League trophy is Manchester United's seventh championship trophy in the 2020-2021 season! This makes them the first team in the world football to win seven championships in a season after becoming the first team in the world football to win seven championships in an annual year in 2018!"
"In the past 2020-2021 season, Manchester United was the best performing team in the world. The upcoming 2021-2022 season of Manchester United is also very worth looking forward to! I am not saying this because they have won so many championships. I believe that everyone who watched this game will have this idea-this is an emerging force full of vitality, speed and strength. Their football fascinates us. I like this kind of game, and I like their football!"
……
The commentators expressed their opinions on the game.
………………
While Manchester United is enjoying the worldwide admiration, poor Chelsea has once again become a foil in the contest with Manchester United.
For them, who are also top wealthy families, this experience is not a pleasant one.
Tuchel stood on the sidelines with a livid face.
Losing the Champions League was already hard for him to accept, but what made him even more desperate was that the team was completely suppressed by a team like Manchester United and had almost no ability to fight back!
Mourinho came up and held out his hand. Although it was not very pleasant, basic courtesy was still required. Tuchel shook hands with Mourinho, then turned and left the court, while Mourinho raised his arms high to join the players in the wild celebration.
Soon, the award ceremony was held on site. After the runner-up Chelsea received the runner-up medal, it was the turn of the champion Manchester United to appear.
When Bruno, as captain, accepted the Champions League trophy from the UEFA President on behalf of the whole team, red ribbons representing Manchester United were sprinkled over Porto's Dragon Stadium.
