"C Ronaldo wears a hat in his debut at the Theater! Red Devils fans take the initiative to give applause!"
"Ferguson applauded to express his appreciation, Ronaldo's new summer club has emerged?"
"Thirteen goals lead the Champions League scorer list! The sixteen-year-old European bronze boots are getting stronger and stronger!"
"Keane, Solskjaer are red, nine-man Manchester United is tied by Sporting Lisbon!"
"Pepe and Barzagli are suspended, Sporting Lisbon's defense will be worried in the next round!"
"With three away goals in hand, this may be Sporting Lisbon's only chance to advance to the final!"
"The advantages and disadvantages are reversed? Is Sporting Lisbon's winning rate already greater than Manchester United? CCTV commentator He Wei doesn't think so!"
"The most classic match of this round is out! Made by Sporting Lisbon again!"
After the game, discussions on related topics remained high.
Sir Alex Ferguson was also asked about Ronaldo's performance.
He replied: "When any player completes a hat trick in the Theater of Dreams, he is no longer ordinary. I am very optimistic about Ronaldo. I think he has the potential to become a world-class forward."
"Are there any considerations about bringing in Cristiano Ronaldo? Of course, no team doesn't want such an excellent forward... I don't think the outside world needs to worry about the atmosphere inside Manchester United. Manchester United's forwards are also very good. I believe they will not be afraid of competition.
.”
"Final? Of course, I won't have any doubts about Manchester United entering the final. Sporting Lisbon did a great job, but the victory will belong to Manchester United. We are fully mentally prepared for the next round of the game."
"Real Madrid? I don't want to talk about Real Madrid for now. Going all out to face the next game is what we should do."
Ferguson's reply was remarkable. It not only expressed Manchester United's confidence, but also did not give people the impression of being careless.
Therefore, most people still believe that the general trend is with Manchester United.
April 27th, the 33rd round of the Portuguese Super League.
Sporting Lisbon vs Benfica.
Sporting Lisbon, which has already won the Portuguese Super League championship in advance, once again rested its entire staff.
But after the game, they were not criticized.
Because the "young players" played another good game.
Chinese player Yu Shihao scored twice to help his team draw with Benfica.
Benfica's energy and energy were all used up when they played Porto in the last round, and this round of games is relatively weak.
April 30th.
The second leg of the semi-final between Real Madrid and Bayern takes the lead.
Real Madrid relied on the assist of Raul, the new Golden Ball Player, and the goal of Figo, the new World Player of the Year. They beat Bayern one to one and defended their home court.
In this way, they took the lead in reaching this year's Champions League final with a total score of three to one.
For a time, the galactic battleship was extremely powerful.
That night, Manchester United flew to Sporting Lisbon in a low-key manner.
Their emotions are not high because they completely missed the championship in the league.
Only Liverpool still has a slight chance.
But once the next round of the league is over, if nothing else happens, Arsenal should win the championship.
Manchester United's three consecutive Premier League titles were ended.
If we cannot win a Champions League trophy, then this red dynasty may really come to an end.
No one can be invincible forever. It is already a miracle that this Manchester United can achieve these honors, but all miracle creators hope that miracles can last forever.
At least, everyone hopes that the end will come later.
May 1st.
Both sides announced their lists one after another.
Manchester United has made a lot of adjustments.
Ferguson put down his arrogance and allowed Manchester United to return to traditional football.
A 442 formation declared that they could sacrifice everything for the continuation of the dynasty, including Ferguson's dignity.
Ruud van Nistelrooy and Forlan form a dream double center forward.
Yorke is on the bench.
Giggs, Scholes, Veron and Beckham formed a dream midfield.
Breaking left, passing right, shooting from long range...the only thing this midfielder lacks is defense.
That's the only problem caused by Keane's absence.
If Keane is still there, then Ferguson may let Veron, last year's Premier League champion, sit on the bench.
In fact, Manchester United, which plays traditional football, does not need a midfielder like Veron, who is extremely talented in attack.
They need to focus on defense but also have other functions, or simply be a snake oil type midfielder.
As for Veron, he has very weak defensive attributes. If he doesn't use his strengths, he will be a second-rate midfielder.
But Manchester United's left and right wings have actually decomposed the team's offensive tasks, and Veron has no room to play.
On the defense line, Phil Neville, Blanco, Sylvester, and Gary Neville formed the defense line.
The goalkeeper is still Butters.
O'Shea performed well at the beginning of the last game, but since Ronaldo scored, he began to collapse.
The whole game was turned into a sieve by Ronaldo.
You know, before that game started, O'Shea was the prince in the eyes of many Red Devils fans.
But after that game, if people didn't talk about O'Shea, it would be the greatest respect for O'Shea.
Therefore, after Gary recovered, it was natural that Gary would take over.
On the other hand, Sporting Lisbon has also undergone great changes.
The most unexpected thing is that they actually added a defender to help defend because of the decrease in defender quality.
They continued to use a three-centre-back formation.
They even sent unprofessional full-backs like Maicon as guest central defenders:
Ronaldo, Didier Drogba
Kaka, Deng Kai, Ronaldinho
Matthaus, Guardiola
Fonte, Vidic, Maicon
Reina
This made the outside world puzzled.
But when I look at Sporting Lisbon's roster, I feel relieved.
Even Fonte.
This shows that Sporting Lisbon really does not have more outstanding defenders.
It is expected that one more low-level defender will be better than maintaining a high-quality lineup in the midfield and frontcourt.
In the afternoon, fans of Sporting Lisbon entered the venue one after another.
Today's home court is all green and white, which is in sharp contrast to the Red Devils' home court.
Some fans held banners and some painted their faces with art paint.
The atmosphere is quite lively.
As the capital of Portugal, Lisbon has many residents from other regions who like their hometown teams.
But today, they all put on Sporting Lisbon jerseys and came to this stadium.
Some fans even discovered that the president of a well-known Benfica fans association came to the scene to cheer for Sporting Lisbon.
In comparison, there are only a handful of Manchester United fans.
Soon, the players from both sides entered the locker room to prepare for the game.
Then, amid the exciting Champions League march, he led the ball boy to the court.
Among them, Deng Kai is holding hands with his die-hard fan Xiaofan, b Fei.
Brother B took the lead, with infinite glory on his face.
The camera was also shown in the stands. Pepe and Barzagli were all wearing suits watching the game, and their expressions were even more nervous than the players on the field.
