Chapter 381

After the game, Porto's players were in a frenzy of celebration, and hundreds of reporters ran to Manchester United's stars for live interviews, especially World Footballer Ronaldo.

"Ronaldo, how do you feel now?"

"Why is Manchester United eliminated?"

"The curse of the Champions League or the curse of the Dragon stadium?"

……

There is a saying that the boast will turn into a loud slap in the face, either fan in their own face, or fan in look down on their own face.

Now Ronaldo belongs to the fan in his face, before the game he said that he would score, he would advance, he would win, but only one of the three must be achieved, now the team is eliminated, how can Ronaldo have the heart and face to accept the reporter's interview.

"Nothing to say!"

With a sullen face, Ronaldo crudely pushed the reporter away and walked to the players' channel.

The reporter who chased Rooney also received almost the same treatment. Depressed Lu xiaopang was not willing to accept the interview. He followed Ronaldo into the dressing room.

Veteran Giggs is very calm, in front of reporters, he said about the game's view:

"we started very well, but Gao Xiaodong's goal changed everything, no wonder van der Sar, no one thought that the ball should fly to the goal."

"The Portuguese team has always been difficult to play, they have the skill, the body and the rich experience in the Champions League. It's no accident that the English team has never won here

"I don't believe in the curse of defending the Champions League, but he certainly has an impact on the psychology of us and our opponents. Every opponent is proud to win us. We can't put the champion's airs in our hearts. Such a game, even a little slack and negligence will cause fatal damage."

Goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar has also become the focus of the interview after the game, the reporter asked the most sure or high Xiaodong into the ball.

For the goal, van der Sar admitted that he was responsible, "I thought it was a pass, from any point of view, it can not be a shot, but the ball flew to the back corner, the rotation of the ball is very strong, I didn't rush out the first time, then want to intercept, there is no chance, this is my fault, whether it is a pass or a shot, I should attack."

Most of the Manchester United players are reluctant to receive live interviews. When the frenzy of Porto's celebration was slightly reduced, the reporters found Porto's players again.

The comeback, outstanding performance of Captain Alves on the team out of Manchester United into the top four is very excited, "can eliminate Manchester United this great team into the top four, it is not easy, I am proud of our excellent performance.". Manchester United's goal is hard. We don't know if we are ready for a few games. In addition, Xiaodong's goal is very important. Without that goal, we will have a very difficult time. But the team can draw with Manchester United in the two rounds, it depends on the efforts of every teammate Now we don't think about Arsenal. We have played in the last four. No matter who the opponent is, we will fight hard

Gao Xiaodong is the hero of Porto's promotion. He played an important role in both attack and defense. After reporters didn't interview Ronaldo, the World Footballer of the year, most reporters began to chase Gao Xiaodong.

Elimination of the defending champion Manchester United, into the Champions League semi-finals, any one will let a small club players crazy, Gao Xiaodong is no exception, he was very happy to accept the reporter's live interview.

The most frequently asked question by reporters is about the goal, "Xiao Donggao, do you want to shoot or pass?"

Gao Xiaodong very hypocritical way: "I just want to shoot, but the ball is very difficult, I'm lucky, shot in."

"So far away, the angle is not big, why do you want to shoot?" Reporters chasing this problem, they still can't understand Gao Xiaodong's decision to shoot at that time.

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "in fact, I don't know why I shot at that time. This may be the shooter's intuition."

There's nothing wrong with that. You don't know if it's normal. You're not forwards.

Gao Xiaodong's words have been questioned by the reporters, although some people still think that Gao Xiaodong's goal is a mistake.

The following reporter asked the most old-fashioned question of post match interview, "how do you feel about being promoted to the top four?"

Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "I'm very happy, because someone's boast can't be realized, and it's estimated that they will never say they don't know me any more."

"Tell me the secret of your elimination of the defending champion?"

"What's the secret? It's luck and hard work. In fact, considering that the English team has never won at the Dragon stadium, there's nothing surprising about our promotion. Manchester United can only regret that they didn't play well at home."

"Another knockout game is over. Your opponent is Arsenal. How much do you think you want to reach the final?"

"It's normal for Arsenal to advance. They're no worse than Manchester United, but after the elimination of Manchester United, we're not afraid of anyone. I think the hope of reaching the final is at least 40%Although the fans are reluctant to leave, the team-mates have returned to the dressing room. Gao Xiaodong finished the interview and went back to the dressing room to celebrate with the team-mates and coaches.

……

Barcelona, Chelsea, Arsenal and Porto are the top four in the Champions League. The three England match that the media favored during the draw of the eighth final did not come true. Porto eliminated the defending champion Manchester United in two rounds, which was the biggest surprise in the eighth final of the Champions League.

"Competition": a story of a flying immortal, huaguogao killed the Red Devils.

"UEFA official website": stars like clouds can't reach unity, but Porto, the dark horse, has been promoted suddenly

in the face of overwhelming praise, Porto's coach has not expanded. Coach Ferreira said after the game: "fortunately, we have reached the semi-finals. Since winning the Championship in 2004, we haven't reached the semi-finals any more. This is a breakthrough, but we have to improve Admittedly, in addition to our efforts, Luck takes up a big factor. Manchester United are stronger than us, but they don't give full play to their strength. This is football. Football is round and everything is possible. Now I haven't had time to consider my next opponent Arsenal. Although we won and lost in the group match, Arsenal are stronger than us. I only know this, Only then can we defeat our opponents again and create a miracle. "

finally, Ferreira said," what we have to do now is to win the League first, and then think about the Champions League. I believe we will not let the fans wait too long. “
