The sixth professional football player who started with Manchester United

Chapter 69
As time passed by, the situation on the field naturally became more and more unfavorable to Real Madrid.

This also caused a huge change in the mentality of many people in Real Madrid.

Mourinho looked at the situation on the court expressionlessly. At this time, he no longer shouted at the court, and the camera would focus on him from time to time.

As Cristiano Ronaldo's long-range shot from the outside went over the crossbar again, Mourinho shook his head slightly and turned back to his position. From this attack, it can be seen that Real Madrid's players are in a hurry, even the always calm Cristiano Ronaldo ended the attack hastily in this way, so you can imagine the others.

Mourinho knew there was no chance.

Because time has completely not allowed the team to make tactical adjustments.

Finally, after nearly 4 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.

At this moment, all the Manchester United players on the bench rushed into the field. Ferguson also walked towards Mourinho with a smile on his face, and extended his right hand first.

The Real Madrid players sat on the ground with confused faces.

1 to 1, Manchester United drew with Real Madrid at home, thus also eliminated Real Madrid from the Champions League this season with a big score of 3 to 2, and Manchester United once again reached the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

Ronaldo grinned and looked at the celebrating Manchester United players, shaking his head slightly with regret.

After a moment, he turned and walked towards the tunnel.

For all Real Madrid players, they are very clear that the exit from the Champions League means that they are likely to have nothing this season. So far, there is only one Copa del Rey left and they still have a chance.

"This was a close game, and the tenacity shown by the opponent made them have the last laugh. On the contrary, I think our performance in the face of adversity is far inferior to that of the opponent. I always feel that a team must have The spirit of bravely facing adversity, this is the most important thing, not how many stars there are."

At the press conference after the game, Mourinho seemed to have something in his words, but no matter how the reporter asked, Mourinho did not answer.

Leave room for journalists to imagine.

However, many people know that in the current situation, Mourinho's position as Real Madrid coach has begun to count down. Florentino, the Lafayette of Real Madrid, absolutely cannot accept Real Madrid's results this season.

In addition, Real Madrid frequently exposed news that the generals were at odds.

Manchester United, which eliminated Real Madrid by relying on the victory in the away game, also returned its focus to the league after the Champions League game.

Four days later, on March 3, Manchester United ushered in the 11th round of the Premier League as a guest at the Olympic Stadium in London. Considering that the team had just experienced a fierce battle, Ferguson also made a substantial adjustment to the lineup in this game Rotation adjustment, Dabao and Carrick did not even appear in the squad, Van Persie and Rooney both sat on the bench.

Facing the strong resistance of West Ham United, the progress of the game was also very difficult.

In the end, Manchester United drew 2-2 with West Ham United in the away game.

The chasers behind Manchester City defeated Wigan Athletic 1-0 at home.

In this way, after the 29th round, Manchester United ranked first in the league with 22 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses with 69 points, while Manchester City ranked second with 18 wins, 8 draws and 3 losses with 62 points. With 7 points, there are still 9 rounds of the league, and everything still has a chance.

On March 3th, with the end of the last sixteen knockout round of the Champions League.

The top eight list of this season's Champions League is also released, and the result is naturally a few happy and some sad.

As far as the Premier League is concerned, only Manchester United is left, which also shames the Premier League, which has always claimed to be the number one league in Europe. The team's Arsenal ran into Bayern Munich. In the end, Manchester United got through, and Arsenal were not so lucky.

In the first round, Arsenal played against Bayern at home, but in the end they lost to their opponents 1-3. Although in the second round they returned their opponents 2-0 away, Arsenal were still eliminated because of away goals.

Another unfortunate team is AC Milan from Serie A. They defeated Barcelona 2-0 in the first round, which also made AC Milan extremely excited. Who knew that in the second round, Barcelona directly gave Milan a 4-0 victory at home. [-].

The teams that reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League in the 2012-2013 season are: Manchester United, Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich, Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain, Galatasaray, Borussia Dortmund, and Malaga.

Naturally, Galatasaray and Malaga are the opponents that many giants hope to draw in the list of the top eight.

This time the goddess of luck seemed to be on Manchester United's side. In the subsequent draw ceremony for the quarter-finals, Manchester United won the absolute top lottery.

The list of final eight duels was released, Manchester United played against Galatasaray, Borussia Dortmund played against Malaga, Paris Saint-Germain played against Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich played against Juventus.

Manchester United not only drew opponents like Galatasaray in this round of knockout rounds, but also successfully avoided Bayern, Juventus, and Barcelona. According to the rules, if Manchester United can reach the semi-finals, then Their opponents in the semi-finals will be the winners between Borussia Dortmund and Malaga, two teams that are relatively weak compared to the teams in the other half.

For a while, the English media became active again, and they began to predict Manchester United's final results in this Champions League. Some media even began to predict who Manchester United would meet in the final.

The 3th round of the Premier League kicked off on March 16.

Manchester United ushered in the challenge of Reading at home, and finally relied on Dabao's long pass in the second half to assist Van Persie and scored the only goal of the game. Manchester United narrowly beat Reading 1-0.

However, Manchester City, which started at the same time, was not so lucky. In this chasing station, Manchester City fell behind again. They lost to Everton 0-2 in the away game. As a result, the points difference between the two sides widened again. 10 points.

This kind of point difference is really a desperate point difference with only 8 rounds left in the league.

Many media also predict that Manchester United has basically won the league championship trophy.

This is indeed the case. To be honest, Manchester City now only has a theoretical opportunity. I am afraid that the most beneficial thing for Manchester City is that Manchester United still has the Champions League game to deal with. This will inevitably involve part of Manchester United's energy.

After the end of this round of the league, the Premier League will also have a two-week truce, because the European World Cup qualifiers will reignite the battle.

Dabao also returned to the Welsh national team after the end of this league.
