The 2011 Champions League final finally reached the cruel extra time.
No one wants to play extra time. The 90 minute game is already a great physical and mental torture, not to mention another 30 minutes, or even a more brutal penalty shoot out.
However, Barcelona and Manchester United have considered the possibility of playing extra time in such a grand finale. After the end of the regular game, the players of Manchester United and Barcelona are calm except for their serious faces. With the help of the coach, substitute team-mates and masseuse, they all relax and recover to prepare for the final showdown.
There is only a five minute break between regular and extra time. After five minutes, the players of both sides return to their respective half for the last 30 minutes.
Apart from replacing Alves and Puyol, Barcelona didn't continue to make changes. In Guardiola's eyes, these people including Messi are the real Barcelona, and other people can't play Barcelona's football.
Manchester United did not continue to make substitution adjustments. Although they drew 2-2 with Barcelona in 90 minutes, now they play one more player and consume less energy than Barcelona.
With the chief referee Kao Shaoyi a whistle, extra time finally began.
Only half an hour, if you can not break Barcelona's goal, Manchester United and Barcelona will have to fight a penalty.
Penalty shootout is not accepted by Manchester United. Although Ferguson trained penalty kicks before the match, what Manchester United want to do most at this time is to beat Barcelona in sports.
In the last few minutes of regular game time, Manchester United's attack method is personal breakthrough, although it also creates a certain threat, but the efficiency is not high. This full attack of Manchester United still continues the previous tactics of two wings flying together.
Due to the abundant time, Manchester United's attack is no longer concerned about the use of the empty space behind them. Evra and Fabio are pressing on with all their strength to attack the two wings of Barcelona.
In the 94th minute of the game, Manchester United's vanguard Valencia was faster than Abidal. Although he didn't completely get rid of Abidal, Valencia still forced his foot to pass. As a result, Abidal blocked the ball from the bottom line.
Manchester United got the corner, Scholes took the penalty, Ferdinand and Vidic came to the penalty area to fight for the top.
Although there were two high points in the middle of the penalty area, Scholes hit the ball to the front.
The player United are fighting for is Gao Xiaodong.
As Gao Xiaodong's height is not high, Barcelona has been ignoring Gao Xiaodong in air defense, but Gao Xiaodong's jumping ability is very good, and he also bought a lot of header technology from superstar system.
Gao Xiaodong's speed is fast and his running position is strange. When defending corner kick, his opponent's defense is not strict enough. Gao Xiaodong easily grabs the front point and the header.
Originally, this tactic was Gao Xiaodong rubbing his head behind the ball, and Nani was the one who grabbed it. This is a routine routine. But this time, Gao Xiaodong has super glasses, and he also found that because there is no defense at the far post of Barcelona's goal, Gao Xiaodong decisively changed his tactics, rubbing his head directly to the far corner of the goal. "
Goalkeeper baldess is more concerned about Gao Xiaodong's running than anyone else. Before Gao Xiaodong's header, baldess has moved close to the post. He is afraid that Gao Xiaodong will play in the near corner. Seeing Gao Xiaodong's header rubbing against his hometown, baldess can only watch the ball fly in front of his eyes.
It takes a little bit of luck for the ball to pass through the restricted area full of defensive and offensive players. At the moment, Gao Xiaodong's luck is obviously very good. The ball passes through the only channel in the restricted area and accurately hits the column and bounces into the net.
3: 2
shortly after the start of extra time, Gao Xiaodong's header broke Barcelona's goal.
The goal came so suddenly that the players and fans of both sides were not ready. At the first time of the goal, the stadium and the stands were silent. Only Gao Xiaodong raised his hands and ran to the stands cheerfully.
The instant repression is just to make the joy more intense. With the celebration of Gao Xiaodong, the United fans in the stands are crazy. It's a decisive goal. After the anti super, United have the advantage in number, and Barcelona's hope of getting back is slim.
"Gao Gao..."
"Manchester United Champion... "
"Keep scoring! Kill Barca... "
……
The stands were full of cheers and shouts from Manchester United fans, and almost a quarter of Barcelona fans were silent.
Only the Barcelona fans can really understand the current situation of Barcelona at the moment. Without the absolute core, the team has not the ability to defend. At the beginning of stoppage time, they lost the ball again. At the moment, the Barcelona fans are not only silent, they are desperate.
Guardiola sat on the coach's bench and looked at the bench. Guardiola was even more annoyed because he found that he didn't have the capital to fight against Manchester United. He had to fight against Manchester United with his tired team.
When Ferguson saw the goal, he finally stopped repressing himself. He rushed out of the coach's seat and roared at the court, muttering: "great! Excellent! The champion is here!In the dressing room, Messi didn't rest. He was watching the match live on TV. Although he was sent off, Messi expected his teammates to beat Manchester United and avenge himself.
Obviously, it's just a dream. The cold numbers on the electronic scoreboard show that Messi's head is down. He knows that if Barcelona win, he may be forgiven. As long as Barcelona lose, Messi's brain burning behavior today will certainly attract strong criticism from the media and fans.
In the VIP box, Glazer's sons and daughters are also very excited. Even the fake fans understand the significance of Gao Xiaodong's goal at this time.
Elder brother evram praised: "Gao Xiaodong is really good! You can always score at the crucial moment
Joel laughs: "I said that this Manchester United only trust Gao Xiaodong, only Gao Xiaodong can send Manchester United to the top, how, I'm not wrong.
Although Glazer's youngest son Edward saw Emma and sister dasey's ecstatic celebration, he was a little jealous and said: "don't be happy too soon, maybe Barca can score."
Obviously, Edward's disappointment was directly ignored, although Barcelona do have the possibility of turnover, at this time, don't think much, just celebrate enough.
Andy Gray, the commentator of sky sports, sighed: "no one can imagine that Gao Xiaodong was the one who headed the goal. His header was very strange. He turned his back to the goal. How did he find the only channel and how could he have such excellent header skills? This is simply an unsolved mystery..."
He Hui, a Chinese commentator, exclaimed, "Xiao Dong is so powerful! Scored such a header, the ball almost killed the game, although there is a lot of time behind, it is estimated that Barcelona is also difficult to organize an effective attack
