Star Card System

The time card on the field shows 90 minutes.

The regular time of the game has ended.

Three minutes of injury time.

Now both sides have returned to their positions.

As long as Manchester United can hold on in the last minute, the ticket to the final will be theirs.

There are less than three minutes left, and Roma is fighting hard.

Being killed by the opponent at the last moment is something Fonseca absolutely does not want to see.

Just when Manchester United was celebrating, he played all the remaining cards in his hand in one breath, and 8 offensive players piled up on the field!

Now, they have only one goal, which is to attack Manchester United and strive for a goal!

At the last moment, fight!

After the restart, all Roma players rushed into Manchester United's half!

Even goalkeeper Lopez went up!

Mkhitaryan got the ball on the left side, and facing Xia Xing who was pressing forward, he decisively passed the ball!

What a joke, thinking about Xia Xing at this time, impossible!

At this time, Manchester United also retreated as a team, except for leaving Martial in the frontcourt.

Just now, Solskjaer also used up three substitutions in one go. In addition to adjusting the defense, he also gave Martial a chance to replace Rashford.

At this time, this kind of substitution is interesting.

Martial is the only Manchester United player who stayed in the frontcourt, just to plant a nail for Roma.

If Manchester United can steal the ball at this time, they will directly kick the ball to Martial.

So they must not lose the ball, make mistakes, and hang the ball into the penalty area.

Roma's midfielder passed the ball continuously and found that it was really impossible to defend through the middle.

With Matic and Fred, as well as Xia Xing and Lingard who retreated, Manchester United's midfield defense was terrible.

The ball was still given to Mkhitaryan on the left.

Mkhitaryan did not hesitate and made a long pass into the penalty area!

Find center forward Dzeko!

In Manchester City, Dzeko is a first-class column center forward. His tall figure has broken Manchester United's goal more than once!

But at this moment, he has no chance!

Maguire personally guarded him!

Facing the incoming ball, he overpowered Dzeko and headed the ball to clear the siege!

Dzeko was knocked away by him!

In the penalty area, Maguire's ability to confront the opponent is world-class!

The ball went out of bounds, a corner kick for Roma.

It was Mkhitaryan again, who quickly ran to the corner flag area, put the ball on the ground, and took the penalty kick as soon as possible.

The ball was kicked out, this time it was for Roma goalkeeper Lopez!

Lopez jumped high, and this time he really caught the opportunity!

Heading the ball!

The ball was headed straight!

De Gea punched it out with both fists!

Manchester United escaped!

And Roma missed the last chance.

The ball fell outside the penalty area, Xia Xing sprinted quickly and caught up with the ball one step ahead.

Kick forward, looking for Martial!

At this time, the three minutes of injury time had passed.

After Martial got the ball, he did not rush forward, but slowly controlled the ball and sought opportunities to move forward.

In fact, he was not in a hurry, after all, his use now was just to kill time.

This was Solskjaer's arrangement, and he knew it very well.

So he was not resolute in his advance, and even very perfunctory.

He controlled the ball on the wing, and when an opponent came up, he protected the ball with his back and continued to consume.

Cristante couldn't bear it anymore, so he went up and pushed Martial away.

Martial fell to the ground instantly.

The referee blew the whistle.

But it was not a foul whistle, but a whistle for the end of the game!

At this time, what's the point of another foul and another penalty kick for Manchester United?

Just end it!

The whistle sounded, and the game was over!

Manchester United players hugged excitedly and enjoyed the victory of the game!

The coaching staff and medical team on the sidelines were also excited!

This game was really not easy!

"From 0-2 behind to 3-2 Jedi counterattack, Manchester United did it!

"Today they showed tenacious fighting spirit and won an equally tenacious opponent!

"In the first half, they were two goals behind, but under the leadership of captain Xia,

"the Jedi counterattack, scored two goals in a row, and tied the score.

"In the second half, we were suppressed by Roma's fierce defense and could not score a goal.

"But at the last moment, with Xia's inspiration again,

"Manchester United defeated Roma!

"They advanced to the Europa League final!

"Let's congratulate them!"

Carragher on the side curled his lips and still said sour words: "Even if we won the game in the end, we were still ahead of the opponent, which still proves that the team's defense is not good and the overall level is average."

"You mean, this kind of Jedi counterattack reversal can't prove the strength of the team?"

"Of course, only a hearty victory can prove the strength, what's the reversal?"

"Oh, I understand. The miracle victory in Istanbul and Liverpool's reversal are definitely nothing, right?"

"You..."

Looking at Carragher's speechless and exasperated look, Alan Shearer laughed.

It's really fun to tease this black guy, haha.

At this time on the court, Manchester United's soldiers are still enjoying the victory.

However, Xia Xing has stopped celebrating, holding Mkhitaryan's jersey in his hand, chatting with old friends.

"Man, until now I still think that Manchester United's letting you go is definitely a huge mistake."

"Haha, it's the past, let's get over it."

"You performed so well in this game. I'm so happy to see you doing so well in Rome."

Looking at Xia Xing's expression, Mkhitaryan knew that Xia Xing was really happy for him, so he patted Xia Xing's shoulder gently.

"Man, I think you may have encountered a lot of troubles in Manchester United. It's not easy for you. I wish you all the best."

Looking at Mkhitaryan's figure walking away, Xia Xing was stunned for a long time.

These old friends all understood his troubles in Manchester United.

In fact, it's not just him. Manchester United as a whole is not going well now.

This is the case for him, and other teammates are not much stronger. Even Solskjaer is under great pressure.

This pressure comes from many aspects inside and outside, and all kinds of sufferings are difficult for outsiders to understand.

Those who have been in Manchester United and left have a deep understanding.

Xia Xing shook his head gently and turned to leave. At this time, someone called him from behind.

"Xia!"

"Hmm?"

Xia Xing turned his head and saw a tall and handsome man standing in front of him.

"Totti? De Rossi?"

"Hmm."

Standing in front of Xia Xing was the Roman prince Totti, and De Rossi stood next to him.

Looking at the two people in front of him, Xia Xing instantly recalled the past events of several seasons ago.

That was when Xia Xing played for Leicester City. In the 2014-2015 season, they won the FA Cup and got the opportunity to participate in the Europa League. They dominated the Premier League and the Europa League until the quarter-finals of the Europa League.

Leicester City met Roma.

In the two rounds of the game, the two sides played very anxiously.

Totti scored a stunning free kick, which made Leicester City a little desperate.

Then Xia Xing ended the game with a long shot.

After that game, the two exchanged jerseys and appreciated each other.

After a few years, the two met again today. (End of this chapter)
