From the man behind the football king to the football king.

Chapter 808 The Ability of the Strongest Star
Although Flick has never faced Bruno, the world's number one football player, head-on, he knows very well that the more critical the moment, the more threatening and terrifying this player will be!
Before becoming an assistant coach at Bayern Munich, Danny Rohr was an assistant coach to Southampton head coach Hasenhüttl and had witnessed Bruno's horror on the field.

After Flick's reminder, Danny Rohr remembered Bruno's devastating performance in the Premier League, and he immediately became careless.

Bayern Munich quickly made substitutions, replacing two players in a row.

In the 68th minute of the game, Flick replaced Kingsley Coman with Coutinho, and replaced Gnabry with Perisic.

The game time passed by minute by minute.

After one substitution, neither side seemed to have the idea of ​​​​making any more substitutions.

The time quickly entered seventy minutes.

After Perisic came on the pitch, Manchester United's crosses from the flanks were restricted and it was difficult for the team to launch the same offensive momentum as in the first half.

But Bayern Munich's situation is not much better, and they also find it difficult to launch threatening attacks.

The situation became a real stalemate.

Bruno looked up at the scoreboard and saw that it was already the 75th minute. He could clearly feel that the Manchester United players were beginning to show signs of fatigue.

The weather in late August is too hot. Although Lisbon has a maritime climate, the temperature today exceeded 30 degrees, which is very unfavorable for the team's pressing and surrounding efforts, and the consumption is very huge.

Once the team can’t run and can’t establish a lead, the final result will be difficult to predict and may even be very bad.

………………

As Manchester United gradually became unable to run, Bayern Munich's counterattack began to create a threat.

Thiago finally took his first shot of the game, a volley near the penalty spot, but it was blocked by Gundogan's body and failed to directly threaten the goal, but it was enough to alert Manchester United players.

"We can't continue like this!" Bruno muttered to himself.

You must find a chance!
No chance? Then forcefully create opportunities!

After several seasons, Bruno feels that not only his overall strength is improving, but his confidence is also growing.

At least, on the court, he no longer doubts whether he can do it, but is thinking about how to do it.

These are obviously two different levels of state of mind, which should be considered his greatest gain and progress.

When he saw Bayern Munich counterattack through the midfield, but was quickly intercepted by Manchester United's double defensive midfielders, and Bayern Munich launched a counterattack in the frontcourt, he realized the opportunity and immediately made a gesture to Harry Kane.

The two have been working together for three full seasons. With Bruno's gesture and his eyes, Harry Kane immediately understood what he should do and nodded silently.

………………

As Bayern Munich's momentum gradually grew, Manchester United's backcourt players were really forced into a corner. Passing and controlling the ball has never been Mourinho's strong point, nor is it Manchester United's strong point either.

Before Guardiola took over, Bayern Munich was also not good at this. However, Guardiola's three years of coaching, although he did not bring the Bundesliga's most coveted Champions League title, did integrate the passing and controlling factor into Bayern Munich's tactics.

Bayern Munich was obviously a little anxious this time and wanted to try to press the frontcourt.

Gundogan quickly passed the ball back to goalkeeper De Gea.

After De Gea stopped the ball outside the penalty area, he looked up and saw Harry Kane!
De Gea saw Harry Kane raise his left hand and point it faintly to the left, and he immediately understood what he meant.

Manchester United's long passes are basically aimed at Harry Kane, but which wing to play on is also a matter of consideration.

After Harry Kane gave the order, he quickly retreated from the front and ran to the left.

Boateng guessed his intention, but did not follow him. Instead, he instructed Kimmich to follow and he stayed behind.

He is a central defender, and it is very dangerous to leave his position easily.

There was a muffled "bang" sound in the Lisbon Stadium. Under the pressure of Lewandowski, De Gea made a long pass and kicked the ball directly to the left.

Harry Kane quickly retreated and ran to the left. He noticed that Boateng did not follow him, so he patiently judged the landing point of the ball, blocked the position with his body, and gently touched De Gea's long pass.

………………

The ball hit Harry Kane's head and was passed behind Kimmich.

At the same time, Bruno, who was originally in front of Harry Kane and Kimmich, suddenly started, shook off Goretzka, and ran behind Kimmich at the fastest speed, chasing the ball directly at a very fast speed.

Kimmich was horrified because he found that Bruno seemed to have consumed a lot of energy throughout the second half, but in fact he had been accumulating energy secretly, which suddenly burst out at this moment.

Goretzka was thrown away and Kimmich had no time to return to defense.

"Be careful of Bruno!" Kimmich warned in a lost voice.

But he didn't need to say anything, Boateng had already reacted and rushed forward. Harry Kane's header was not strong enough and the ball fell quickly.

Bruno and Boateng chased the ball at the same time via different routes.

The Bayern Munich center back's reaction was indeed very fast, but no matter how fast he was, he was not as fast as Bruno, who had a tacit understanding with Harry Kane. The Manchester United captain took the lead, gently poked the ball forward, and chased after it at the fastest speed.

Boateng tried to clear the ball with his foot, but he couldn't do two things at once. He had no way of holding Bruno. Otherwise, he would have decisively chosen to foul, because after entering the penalty area, Bruno would become even more terrifying!
………………

David Alaba's reaction was quick, and he was always by Boateng's side. After realizing the danger, he rushed to Bruno to assist in defense and blocked Bruno on the left side of the penalty area.

But Bruno was mentally prepared. This was not the first time he had dealt with Bayern Munich and Alaba. As early as five years ago, he had led his former club Udinese to face Bayern Munich and Alaba in the Champions League.

After catching up with the ball, Bruno chose to stop the ball at the first opportunity.

Controlling the ball gave him the advantage.

David Alaba also stopped suddenly and tried to block him.

As long as Bruno is blocked and Boateng and Kimmich have time to react, Bruno will be dead.

But Bruno knew his idea very well, so his choice was to stop suddenly and then immediately cut inside, trying to create an opening.

As long as there is an opening, his right foot can be threatening.

David Alaba is very experienced, and the defensive experience accumulated over the years tells him that he must leave room for everything.

What's more, having played professional football for more than ten years, what kind of scenes has he not experienced?
He also kept an eye out when he made an emergency stop.

Bruno's dribble and cut inside was exactly what Alaba expected, so he immediately blocked it, trying to block Bruno's shooting angle.

But Bruno's reaction was also extremely fast, and everything he did now was performed based on almost instinctive conditioned reflexes.

When he saw David Alaba move, he knew he had no chance to cut inside, so he kicked the ball back with his right foot again.

………………

In the narrow area on the left side of the penalty area, in a split second, Bruno made a quick stop and then changed direction twice in a row. These were the results of his continuous training over the past few years, and they were honed bit by bit after eight years of hard work in professional football.

All the movements are extremely concise, striving for simplicity to the extreme, yet very threatening at the same time.

The force of his kick was not strong, because if it was too strong, he wouldn't be able to hit the ball with enough force and angle when he shot with his left foot.

Moreover, Boateng and Kimmich were right behind him, so he only had one chance. Once he dribbled back, he had to shoot directly. Otherwise, he would have no chance.

In a moment, Bruno forced his way through David Alaba's body.

Bayern Munich goalkeeper Neuer, whose view was blocked by David Alaba just now, was shocked when he saw it and immediately judged Bruno's shooting angle.

When he saw Bruno dunk the ball back and hit it with his left foot, he immediately flew to the right side of the goal. But to his disappointment, Bruno hit it very quickly and rushed directly to the upper right corner.

Neuer completely missed the target!

………………

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLL!!!!!"

"The ball went in!!!"

"In the 2th minute, Manchester United scored another goal, 1:!"

"Bruno scored twice!"

……

After Bruno shot with his left foot, he knew clearly.

After stabilizing himself, he saw the ball hit the upper right corner of the goal, and Neuer missed. In an instant, he quickly turned around, avoided Boateng and Kimmich who were flying towards him, and ran towards the corner flag area quickly, even breaking free from Harry Kane's bear hug on the way.

Bruno quickly rushed to the sidelines, slid down on his knees, and left two obvious marks on the soft grass.

Although today's Champions League final was still played in an empty stadium and there were no cheers from fans on the sidelines, it did not prevent Bruno from celebrating his goal.

"Bruno was in fantastic form tonight! In the first half, he not only scored a lightning goal, but also planned several very threatening attacks. In the second half, he seized the opportunity at the critical moment and helped Manchester United surpass the score again."

"The whole goal was very beautiful, and Harry Kane played a key role in it. His header created a chance for Bruno to attack head-on, and Bruno used his outstanding personal ability to seize the opportunity. This was definitely a flash of inspiration from a top superstar!"
