Star card system.

After receiving the ball from Xia Xing, Rooney was speechless for a while.

He looked at Xia Xing, who nodded towards him.

Rooney nodded too.

Brother, thank you!

During the break in the last training session before the game yesterday, Rooney chatted with Xia Xing for a long time.

They talked about the defeat in the Champions League final and the Red Devils general's reluctance.

"We must win this game! Defeat them!"

Rooney's firm words seemed to still echo in the sky above Old Trafford.

At this moment, Xia Xing's concession was to fulfill himself and make himself completely regret-free.

If so, do it!

Rooney raised the captain's armband on his arm, kissed the football handed over by Xia Xing, walked slowly to the center of the penalty area, and placed the ball on the penalty spot.

Get up and back away.

Opposite Ter Stegen had a serious expression, while Rooney had a calm expression.

It's like the ball isn't an important issue at all.

It’s as if this isn’t the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

It was just like a training match. There was no tension or seriousness on Rooney's face.

Even a little less serious.

This gave Ter Stegen an illusion.

He might not be able to kick the ball well?
Maybe I'll have a chance?
But unfortunately, he guessed wrong.

For Rooney, this kind of scene is nothing new.

From his debut at the age of 17 to now for more than ten years, Rooney has experienced too many big scenes.

What haven't you seen?

The only resentment in my heart was that Champions League final.

Now, the opponent who once defeated him is standing in front of him, what are he waiting for?
Rooney retreats slowly, takes a run, and shoots!

This is a powerful kick!
Rooney, who has always been calm, did not choose a too subtle angle for this shot, but pursued power very much!

The ball hits the center!

Ter Stegen moved to the right early and he had no chance!

The ball hits the net!

“The ball went in! It’s great!
"Rooney's explosive shot went straight into the net!

"At Old Trafford, the Red Devils are finally ahead!
"1 to 0!

“They were suppressed by Barcelona the whole game, and this was even the third shot of the game!
“But that’s a goal!
"The Manchester United captain's penalty kick was so powerful that no one could stop it!
“Old Trafford has become a sea of ​​joy at this time!
"Let's hear the excited applause and cheers!
"Manchester United fans are so happy!
“Although the game is not over yet, they are very sure that their team will definitely advance!

"Now they have extended the total score to 2-0, unless Barcelona score two more goals.

"Otherwise Manchester United will advance smoothly!

“This game is really not easy!

“Mourinho’s bus tactic makes Barcelona players weak in attack and unable to start!

"And he arranged for Xia to closely mark Messi, which was an extremely successful tactic!

“The current Barcelona frontcourt, with or without Messi, will definitely change!

"And xia's long pass just after stealing the ball was even more exciting!

"Finding Sanchez accurately resulted in this penalty!
"Excellent!
"Even though he didn't score a goal or assist in this game, he is still the brightest star of Manchester United today!"

Looking at the Manchester United players hugging each other excitedly on the court, even Carrick couldn't help but nod in admiration this time. "This reminds me of the final where Manchester United lost 1-3 to Barcelona.

"Sir Alex Ferguson's trembling hands are still fresh in my memory.

"Rooney was a witness to that game. He was so close to winning the Champions League, but in the end his dream was shattered.

"Now, Rooney can finally avenge himself back then.
"This goal really has a special meaning."

Carragher's words made Manchester United fans give a thumbs up.

This guy finally spoke some human words.

When the broadcast camera panned, a figure appeared on the big screen.

Sir Alex Ferguson!
Today he is here too, watching the game from the stands!

The weather in March was not too cold anymore. Sir Alex Ferguson was sitting in the stands, accompanied by Manchester United club officials.

The moment Rooney scored, he had already stood up!
The scene of vigorous applause appeared in front of all Manchester United fans!

At this moment, the fans responded to Sir Alex Ferguson with even greater applause!
Coach, our team is creating new miracles!
Manchester United's celebration lasted for a long time, and Barcelona players frequently protested.

However, in the end the referee also gave compensation - 5 minutes of injury time.

In the next 5 minutes, Barcelona began a desperate attack.

Even Ter Stegen rushed into the Manchester United goal, waiting to create a miracle.

But Manchester United has high-point defenses like Smalling and Fellaini in the penalty area, and Barcelona's passes can't get in at all.

Outside the penalty area, Xia Xing still followed Messi.

At this time Messi could no longer run.

After competing with Xia Xing throughout the game, Messi also created some passing opportunities.

Xia Xing wants to make Messi useless at all, which is unrealistic.

But while Messi was barely in a position to display his personal abilities, Xia Xing did it perfectly.

And now, Xia Xing is beating Messi with his excellent physical fitness!

Messi can't run now, but Xia Xing is still full of energy!
In these few minutes, all the balls passed to Messi were destroyed by Xia Xing!
No exceptions!

It’s so repressive!

At four and a half minutes into stoppage time, Messi struggled to pass the ball to Suarez.

Suarez's turning shot missed the crossbar and flew off the baseline, and they missed their last chance.

The ball was in De Gea's hands. After Manchester United passed the ball briefly, Xia Xing made another big kick and drove forward!
If it weren't for Paulinho's pressing, Xia Xing's shooting might have continued to create miracles!
But even so, the ball just rolled slowly towards the bottom line against the goal post.

And this process is also very slow.

Ter Stegen is here, and Barcelona has no one in the backcourt.

Their players were also extremely tired, running hard towards the ball parked on the court.

But at this moment, the referee's whistle sounded!
"The game is over!

"Manchester United beat Barcelona twice in two games!

"With two 1-0s, they made Barcelona return in despair!

"Manchester United successfully advanced to the quarterfinals of the Champions League!
"They are simply amazing!

“In these two games, Mourinho’s team demonstrated their defensive skills to the fullest!

“I was sent off in the first game and retreated decisively to set up the bus.

"In the end, with Xia's pass, Sanchez scored and got a valuable away goal!

“And in this game, Manchester United relied on unexpected tactical arrangements to completely lock down Messi!
"Without Messi, Barcelona's offensive capabilities have dropped by more than one level!
“And the final goal was the last straw for Barcelona!
"The total score is 2 to 0!

"Manchester United perfectly demonstrated the art of defense!
"Let us congratulate them again for successfully advancing to the quarterfinals of the Champions League!" (End of Chapter)
