Chapter 405 Penalty Shootout
The atmosphere on the scene changed suddenly. Everyone thought that Manchester United was going to win the championship.

As a result, in the final stoppage time, Den Haag miraculously equalized the score.

This is something no one thought of, and it's so much like a script.

When the goal was scored, all Manchester United players showed blank expressions.

They were all prepared to welcome the victory, but they were forcibly tied.

This hit them too hard, and their mentality changed.

The stoppage time ended quickly, and in the end the two sides drew 1-1 in regular time.

Now that the physical fitness of both sides has been affected, the side with more perseverance will be more beneficial.

In the subsequent overtime, although the physical fitness of both sides was average, Xue Yang made two consecutive substitutions in the overtime.

First, the Chinese midfielder Yin Chengjie was replaced, and the Dutch central midfielder Kopmenus was replaced.

In fact, the two of them have similar abilities, but Yin Chengjie's physical fitness has bottomed out.

He was really hardworking in the previous games, so Xue Yang replaced him.

In the last few minutes of overtime, Xue Yang replaced midfielder Ndidi.

Then put forward Allais, Allais finally came off the bench.

But Alai couldn't be happy in his heart, because it was only a few minutes before the end.

I feel that Xue Yang let him come on as a substitute, more for the final penalty shootout.

How could Alai be happy? Although it was only a few minutes, Alai still wanted to express himself.

It's a pity that it was just useless work. In the end, the two sides drew 1-1.

The game was dragged into a penalty shootout!

"Overtime is over! The two sides are still tied 1-1!" He Wei explained the game.

"The game entered a brutal penalty shootout. I didn't expect today's game to be played so anxiously."

In fact, Xue Yang was not very happy to enter the penalty shootout, because Manchester United had a greater advantage in the penalty shootout.

After all, their goalkeeper is De Gea, and Den Haag's goalkeeper Ruyter is indeed far behind.

At this time, the fans of both sides waited anxiously for the next penalty shootout.

Manchester United fans must be upset. If they were killed, they could have won the championship directly.

Now the penalty shootout is really hard to say, Den Haag has hope to beat Manchester United.

Xue Yang tried his best to calm down the mentality of the players, and the final penalty should not be a psychological burden.

The captains of both sides came to the referee group and decided the penalty goal and penalty order by tossing a coin.

The Hague took the lead in taking a penalty kick, and of course Xu Qiang was the first to take the penalty.

Today Xu Qiang's behavior was mediocre at first, but fortunately he still stood up later.

When many Den Haag fans were desperate, he stood up and assisted Yan Fangjun to score.

Gained hope for The Hague, if not for Xu Qiang, The Hague would have lost.

Xu Qiang walked slowly towards the penalty spot and put the football on the ground.

De Gea looked at Xu Qiang in front of him with very calm eyes.

If it weren't for Xu Qiang, Manchester United would have won the championship.

Xu Qiang kicked the football after the run-up, and De Gea rushed to save it.

But he knew it was broken in the air, and the football flew over slowly.

Xu Qiang actually kicked a spoon penalty!
The football fell slowly towards the goal in a parabola.

De Gea looked at the flying football and was powerless.

Next came Manchester United, and the first penalty kick was Mkhitaryan.

The Hague goalkeeper Ruyter stepped up, and Ruyt knew his importance.

Whether Den Haag can win the championship, what is needed most is for him to stand up.

But he failed to make the save, and Mkhitaryan made a solid hit.

Back in The Hague, the second penalty was handed over to Allais to take the penalty.

Allais was not in a good mood at this time, and De Gea's mentality was not as stable as before.

The scoop penalty has a bit of an impact on the goalkeeper, even De Gea.

But he still worked hard to concentrate, hoping to save the penalty.

Alai and Xu Qiang have completely different styles, and Alai chooses to blast the pole vigorously.

The football flew directly to the upper right corner of the goal, and Allais also successfully hit it.

Here comes the Manchester United side again, this time the penalty is Rooney who came off the bench.

Ruitt faced superstar Rooney, and the pressure was very high.

Ruitt also failed to save a penalty kick, and both sides have now hit all penalty kicks.

The No.3 penalty kicker in Den Haag is De Jong. De Jong is too important to Den Haag now.

De Jong, who can both attack and defend, performed perfectly this season and has already been selected for the national team.

De Jong looked calm in the face of De Gea. After successfully deceiving De Gea, he sent the football to the right.

Back to Manchester United, Martial was the one who took the penalty.

It is worth mentioning that Rashford has been replaced.

Rashford was a bit invisible today and Martial started to step back.

Xue Yang stared at the goal and prayed in his heart.

He is too eager for the Europa League championship, this is the first European championship.

Xue Yang's prayer actually worked. Although Ruyt didn't pounce on the football, Martial kicked it away!
The football flew straight out of the goal and Den Haag had the upper hand.

When he saw Martial kicked away, although Ruyt did not jump, he shouted excitedly.

All the Den Haag fans shouted and cheered. In this anxious time, every penalty is too important.

The advantage comes to the Hague side, and they are really likely to win the championship.

The pressure on Manchester United has suddenly increased, especially goalkeeper De Gea.

The Manchester United fans at the scene were all quiet, they could not accept the reality.

The No.4 penalty kicker in The Hague is Danjuma, and Danjuma's pressure is a little less.

Danjuma made a penalty to the right. Although De Gea threw himself in the right direction, it was a pity that he still failed to make it.

Coming to Manchester United again, they must hit this penalty.

Otherwise, Den Haag would have successfully won the championship, and they would have only won the runner-up.

The ball was handed over to Mata for a penalty, and Mata was quite stable.

Steadily scored the penalty kick, as Xue Yang expected, Rui Te's ball fight was really ordinary.

Next is the No.5 player in Den Haag. If he makes a penalty, he will be the champion.

If the penalty is missed, the advantage will disappear instantly, and the game will return to suspense.

This penalty was handed over to Yan Fangjun. Although Yan Fangjun joined The Hague not long ago, his strength has been recognized.

At this time, goalkeeper De Gea was under a lot of pressure, and everyone held their breath.

Waiting for this penalty kick, Yan Fangjun was not under so much pressure.

Yan Fangjun started to run!
Penalty kick!

Goalkeeper De Gea rushed to save, but once again he missed the penalty.

He really can't be blamed for this ball, because Yan Fangjun's penalty angle is too tricky, it can be said that he hit a dead corner.

The game is over!

With the final penalty shootout, Den Haag miraculously defeated Manchester United!

Won the Europa League championship in the 2016/2017 season, which is also the second key for The Hague this season.

This is also Xue Yang's first European Championship after coming to The Hague!
