Chapter 475: Master and disciple on the same stage, the Great Sage returns!
"Rooney!!!"

"Unbelievable! Manchester United has taken the lead again!"

"The one who scored the second goal for them was their captain! Wayne Rooney!!!"

After scoring the goal, Rooney seemed very excited. He rushed directly to the corner flag area and made his classic celebration move by raising his arms!

In an instant, all the Red Devils fans in the Millennium Stadium were excited.

This was Rooney's second goal in the Champions League final.

His last goal in the Champions League final dates back to the 2011 Champions League final.

At that time, he also used a push shot to penetrate the goal of another Spanish giant, Barcelona.

Unfortunately, they lost the game in the end.

This time, they were facing the Real Madrid, which was at its peak. Rooney swore in his heart that he would never watch victory slip away from his hands again!
"Good job"

"Wazza! That goal was so damn cool!"

All Manchester United players rushed to the corner flag area and surrounded Rooney.

Ling Feng also patted Rashford on the head and praised him:
"Marcus, great pass!"

Rashford smiled shyly.
As the saying goes, having Lu Xiaopang in the family brings blessings and health!

With the Red Devils captain Rooney scoring a goal, Manchester United once again took the lead, making everyone feel the power of fate.

I have to say, the sense of fate in this game is overwhelming!
First, there was the second confrontation between Ling Feng and Ronaldo, two of the strongest No.7s today, after the European Cup, and then there was the dramatic coincidence of Ronaldo facing his old club in the final;

The direction of the game was also unexpected.

First, Ronaldo scored with a header to equalize the score for Real Madrid;
Rooney was not to be outdone and made a run to score!

The performance of the two in the Champions League final made many Red Devils fans in the stands recall the good times when the "Red Devils Twins" played beautifully together, led the team to win one victory after another, and won one championship after another.

The live camera on the scene was also timely aimed at Ferguson who was watching the game in person in the stands.

The old man's face and nose were flushed, he clapped his hands for the team's goal, and his face was full of satisfaction.

In any case, these two people are his favorite disciples.

However, for Ferguson, who regards Manchester United as his own child, seeing Manchester United score goals is of course more gratifying than seeing Ronaldo score goals.

"Good job, wazza!"

Unlike the Red Devils fans who were celebrating wildly, the Real Madrid fans in the stands were silent.

Zidane, who was on the sidelines, also had a frown on his face, staring at the Manchester United players who were celebrating in the corner flag area.

If Manchester United can score a goal against Real Madrid, it can be attributed to luck.

But two goals?
That is strength!
The whole process of this goal also made Real Madrid veterans such as Ronaldo, Modric, Ramos, Marcelo and others feel a sense of déjà vu.

Isn't this the quick counterattack that Mourinho played when he coached Real Madrid? !
Ling Feng dribbled past the opponent with his back and made an astonishing 60-meter long diagonal pass, finding Rashford who was running at high speed on the left.

Rashford stopped the ball steadily, dribbled into the penalty area, and completed a left-foot cross from the bottom.

In the end, Ibrahimovic held back the defender in the middle, and Rooney made a run in and scored.
The entire goal took less than thirty seconds.

Moreover, every link was just right, showing the quality of Manchester United's counterattack.

No one would think that this was just a flash of inspiration among the players. It must be the result of the team's long-term training!
Because, the moment Ling Feng dribbled past the opponent and turned around, Rashford on the left accelerated forward without hesitation.

He knew very well that as long as he ran to the open space, Ling Feng's pass would definitely be passed to him.

Moreover, as an inverted winger, Rashford did not choose to pass the ball across the goal after going down the flank, but chose to use his left foot to send the ball to the vicinity of the penalty spot.

Finally, Rooney, who switched to the middle, delivered the fatal blow!
The most difficult part of this goal was naturally the exquisite long pass made by Ling Feng!
At this moment, the Real Madrid players finally realized that the Red Devils No. 22, who would only turn in a few days, had been the assist king in the top five leagues for two consecutive seasons!
He is not only threatening when he breaks through with the ball, his passing is truly an art. He is always able to keenly capture the gaps and gaps in the opponent's formation and deliver a fatal pass!
Until this time, Zidane and Real Madrid players finally understood.

Why was Manchester United able to make it to the final despite being an underdog?
Why was Manchester United able to score twice against Real Madrid in the final?

There is no other reason, just because of the existence of one person.

That is Manchester United’s absolute core and the number one player in the Premier League—Ling Feng!
. . .

As Ling Feng demonstrated his artistic passing skills in the Champions League final, the balance of victory seemed to begin to tilt towards Manchester United.

Of course, there is still nearly half an hour left in the game and nothing is decided yet.

After the kick-off, Real Madrid, who was behind in the score, continued to control the ball and launch attacks.

However, they did not dare to launch a massive attack like they did just now.

Carvajal, in particular, no longer dared to make assists frequently.

However, with all Manchester United players retreating to the half court and in a tight defensive formation, Real Madrid, with the slightest hesitation, was unable to gain a numerical advantage in the front court, and it was even more difficult to find gaps and breaches.

For a moment, the situation on the field came to a stalemate.

Manchester United fended off Real Madrid's attacks time and time again, and occasionally launched threatening counterattacks.

It was not until ten minutes later, when seeing that the team's offense was stuck in a positional battle, that Zidane made a prompt decision and made a substitution!

Replace Isco with Bale!

After using Bale, the ultimate killer, Real Madrid's offensive did take a turn for the better.

When healthy, Bale's ability in personal explosiveness is no less than that of Ronaldo!
As Bale continued to launch attacks with the ball on the wing, Luke Shaw, who was guarding Manchester United's left, was also under tremendous pressure.

However, the Red Devils fans felt that Luke Shaw was not at all inferior to Bale!

If it was Luke Shaw who was originally depressed due to a broken leg injury, he might have been blown to pieces by Bale.

However, with the help of the [Injury Recovery Card] and the psychological counseling of Ling Feng, Luke Shaw is no longer the fat Shaw who would have been frozen out or even beaten by Mourinho.

Today's Luke Shaw not only has physical confrontation and speed, but has also experienced the baptism of the Premier League and the Champions League.

Even if he cannot be called the best left-back in the Premier League, he can definitely be among the top three!
In contrast, Bale, who just returned from injury, is no longer as brave as he was last season and that year in the Premier League.

Even in a one-on-one situation on the wing, Bale was unable to gain much advantage from Luke Shaw's defense.

But Bale's speed and impact still give Real Madrid more offensive opportunities!

In the 70th minute, Bale cruised to the middle to receive the ball. Just as he was about to turn around, he was fouled by Bailly behind him.

In addition to showing Bailly a yellow card, the referee also awarded Real Madrid a free kick opportunity in front of the penalty area.

Naturally, this free kick was taken by Real Madrid's top star Cristiano Ronaldo.

Looking at Ronaldo standing in front of the ball and taking a deep breath, although the jersey he was wearing was different, Ling Feng couldn't help but recall last year's European Cup semi-final.

At that time, England was leading Portugal.

It was with a low free kick from Ronaldo's free kick that the score was equalized, thus sending the game into overtime.

This is how they beat England in the penalty shootout and made it to the final! However, this time, Ronaldo did not choose to shoot a low shot, but instead shot a curve ball, trying to shoot into the upper right corner of the goal.

Unfortunately, perhaps because the distance was too close, it was even more difficult to control the strength of the ball. In the end, after the ball passed the wall of people, it was slightly higher and flew over the crossbar of the goal and out of the bottom line.

And Manchester United is not to be outdone!

A few minutes later, Manchester United seized the opportunity to counterattack and passed the ball to Ling Feng.

The latter once again made a precise pass to find the retreating Ibrahimovic.

However, when Ibrahimovic tried to get past Ramos with a delicate V-shaped pass, he was knocked to the ground by the latter.

This also gave Manchester United a chance for a free kick in the frontcourt.

Near the end of the first half, Ling Feng fired a long-range heavy artillery shot about 40 meters away from the goal.

Unfortunately, the shot was too powerful and too fast to be controlled, so it went over the goal.

This time, the penalty spot was closer to the goal, and it was also an even more powerful free kick from Ling Feng.

Real Madrid put up a four-man wall consisting of Ronaldo, Bale, Benzema and Casemiro.

The BBC combination alone plus the wall of Real Madrid's Brazilian and double main defensive midfielders is worth 300 million euros!
However, the heavy artillery that Ling Feng fired after taking a deep breath still failed to control the falling distance and it was slightly higher than the crossbar again.

However, the Red Devils fans at the scene still gave him a warm round of applause.

After the free kick went high, Mourinho made the first substitution of the game:
Goal scorer Rooney is replaced by substitute Lingard!

The reason for replacing Rooney is very simple:
Rooney's physical condition has declined and he can hardly run anymore!
Especially when Real Madrid continued to attack the left, Rooney almost always retreated to his own half to assist in defense.

When attacking, he will also run forward to increase the number of receiving points in the frontcourt.

Although Rooney was somewhat unwilling to accept the coach's decision, he still turned around and walked to the sidelines.

Just as Ling Feng took the initiative to high-five him, Rooney took off the captain's armband on his arm and handed it to Ling Feng:
"Ling, I'll leave it to you guys from now on."

Hearing this, Ling Feng also nodded with a solemn expression: "Don't worry, we will definitely hold up the championship trophy!"

"I promise!"

Ling Feng's answer also made Rooney smile with relief:
"I believe in you! You never disappoint anyone!"

Of course, the scene of Rooney handing the captain's armband to Ling Feng was faithfully recorded by the photographer.

However, this does not mean that Ling Feng becomes the captain of the Red Devils Manchester United on the field at this moment.

In fact, Ling Feng was just acting as a middleman, handing the captain's armband to another captain Valencia on the field.

It is worth mentioning that with Rooney leaving the field and Lingard coming on, Lingard also made his debut in the Champions League final.

Looking at Ronaldo not far away, Lingard's excitement was hard to calm down.

Lingard never imagined that his dream of competing on the same stage with his idol, which he had dreamed of countless times, would come true!

Moreover, the stage where the two met for the first time was the Champions League final!

It is worth mentioning that when Ling Feng saw Lingard defending Ronaldo, the corners of his stern face couldn't help but curl up.

Could this be considered a meeting between master and disciple at the pinnacle of their relationship?
. . . .

As the game time draws to a close, the competition has entered a white-hot stage.

After the energetic Lingard came on the field, Manchester United's right defense was strengthened a lot.

Under the double-team of Lingard and Herrera, even Ronaldo did not have many opportunities to hold the ball.

Real Madrid's offensive can only stay outside Manchester United.

Especially in the middle, Ling Feng and Kante are enough to cover the entire midfield.

The two of them are like vicious wolves that never get tired. As long as someone has the ball in the middle, they will rush forward to press and bite.

As time went by, Real Madrid players became more and more anxious.

Zidane also realized that if no changes were made, the team would not have much time left.

So, when the game came to the 80th minute, Real Madrid, who was still behind, made the second substitution of the game:

Benzema out, Morata in!
Then, with a wave of coach Zidane's hand, Real Madrid once again launched an all-out attack on Manchester United!

They need to speed up the offensive tempo and find more space through active retreat and penetration of frontcourt players.

Under Real Madrid's continued high pressure, although Ling Feng was in the middle, he completely suppressed Modric and Kroos.

However, the two flanks were still under tremendous defensive pressure.

Especially in Valencia!
And just five minutes later, Manchester United's "bus" was finally breached again!

Modric made a straight pass and found Morata on the flank.

The latter kicked the ball back and passed it to Ronaldo on the left.

The Portuguese superstar suddenly accelerated, passed Herrera, and then rushed towards Valencia with the ball.

As the two were getting closer, Ronaldo suddenly slowed down his dribbling speed, attracted Valencia to kick the ball, and then he stepped with his right foot and went to the bottom.

Then, near the baseline, after a few feints and bicycle kicks to confuse Valencia, Ronaldo suddenly pushed his right foot outward, created an angle, observed the positions of his teammates in the penalty area, and directly passed the ball to the middle!

"Ronaldo. Cross!"

The ball drew a beautiful parabola, flying over the heads of Morata, Bailly, Rojo and others and reaching the far post.

And there, there was only one player wearing a white jersey and one player wearing a red jersey.

It was Bale and Luke Shaw who was marking him!
The 1.86-meter-tall "Great Sage" Bale jumped into the air, overpowered Luke Shaw, and hit the ball hard with his forehead.

The next second, the ball turned into a cannonball and flew into the net from the inside of the goal post!

"Bell~~~~"

"A powerful header!"

“The defending champions once again demonstrated their dominance in the finals!”

"Gareth Bale equalized the score once again with an unstoppable header!"

"It's two to two now!"

Bale, who scored the goal, opened his arms, grinned, rushed to the corner flag area, and performed a handsome slide.

Then he stood up and roared at the camera, which he had suppressed for a long time:

“Come On!!!”

This roar, in addition to venting his own situation, was also an announcement to the world:
The omnipotent Monkey King who once dragged Real Madrid forward in La Liga and the Champions League last season is back!
