In the President's Stand of the Luzhniki Stadium, Bayern's Big Three and core management were all present.
This is also a consistent feature of Bayern's important games. All the core management are die-hard Bayern fans.
On this rainy night in Moscow, they watched Manchester United score the first goal, watched Bayern equalize the score and take the lead, and watched Manchester United successfully tie the score. The whole process was ups and downs and thrilling.
As the game came to an end, the situation remained stalemate, which made Bayern's management feel worried.
"This season is a bit like 1999!" Rummenigge said with a frown.
Everyone who experienced Barcelona's Camp Nou night in 1999 knows what Rummenigge was talking about.
That was the most classic miraculous comeback in Manchester United's history, and also a legendary final in the history of the Champions League.
But Rummenigge is not just talking about the well-known Champions League final, he is talking about the season.
"Ferguson is really great. He is the soul of Manchester United. He has trained two generations of such outstanding Manchester United. It's hard not to admire him." Beckenbauer praised sincerely.
Even as an opponent, Ferguson is the most respectable.
"This season's Manchester United may not be as legendary and thrilling as it was in 1999, but the overall strength and the team's style are really similar, so we seem to have an advantage now, but in fact it is very dangerous."
Si was also very nervous.
Concern leads to chaos, Bayern really needs a Champions League!
Having invested huge sums of money and introduced superstars, Bayern now needs a Champions League to stimulate itself, and even the entire Bundesliga market.
But opponents like Manchester United are very difficult to deal with, and the closer they get to the whistle, the more terrifying they become.
Just like the 1999 Champions League final.
"Heynckes must know it. At this time, we still have to keep calm," Beckenbauer said.
Just as he was talking, Manchester United launched a sharp and quick counterattack. Ronnie and Tevez quickly launched a counterattack, forming a two-on-two situation in the frontcourt, which made everyone present, including Beckenbauer and others.
Everyone suddenly became nervous.
Many people were even so excited that they exclaimed.
Fortunately, both Lucio and Pepe handled the situation very well. They were both very capable in one-on-one situations and did not give their opponents a chance. They only gave Manchester United a throw-in, which greatly relaxed Beckenbauer and others.
Take a breath.
"Manchester United's style is really terrible!" Beckenbauer shook his head.
Who says it's not?
"The main thing is Ferguson!" Rummenigge praised.
Although nine years have passed since the 1999 season, everything that happened is still vivid in our minds.
Many fans only remember that Manchester United reversed Bayern with two goals at the last moment at Camp Nou, but in fact, their legend is not just about that Champions League final, but also the entire season.
In the Premier League, Ferguson's Manchester United did not perform satisfactorily after 19 games and were only ranked third. Arsene Wenger's Arsenal was even worse, ranking fifth. Chelsea and Aston Villa
tied for the top spot in the standings.
But in the second half, the two teams counterattacked all the way and finally led the standings. The two teams fought hard to separate each other and took turns taking the lead.
After the 36th round, Arsenal ranked first with a two-point advantage. However, in the 37th round, Arsenal encountered a sniper from Leeds United in an away game. Hasselbaink scored at the last moment of the game to help
Manchester United reversed course and climbed to the top.
But the most legendary thing was the last round. Both teams were at home. Arsenal defeated Aston Villa 1-0, while Manchester United fell behind by one goal at home. The scorer was the uncle of current Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand.
Les Ferdinand.
However, Manchester United reversed Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 with two goals from Beckham and Andy Cole.
With this reversal, Manchester United finally won the Premier League championship.
Just that?
No, in the most critical semi-final of the FA Cup, Manchester United met Arsenal. With the two sides drawing one to one, Keane received a second yellow card and was sent off with a red card in the 74th minute. Arsenal
Na took the opportunity to launch a crazy attack on Manchester United.
But in overtime, Giggs' goal helped Manchester United defeat Arsenal 2-1 and successfully advance to the final. In the final, they defeated Newcastle 2-0 and finally won the FA Cup.
The FA Cup semi-final match was equally classic and crucial.
And even in the Champions League, which fans are talking about, little did they know that as early as the semi-finals, Manchester United had already started a reversal mode.
After drawing 1-1 at home with Juventus, the strongest team in Europe at the time, in the second leg away from home, Manchester United conceded two goals in a row shortly after the start. Inzaghi scored twice, and the first goal came from
Zidane's assist.
Ferguson also praised Inzaghi as a man who lives on the offside line.
Trailing 0-2, Manchester United started a violent mode, first scoring two goals in a row to equalize the score. In the 83rd minute of the game, Andy Cole scored the final winning goal, 3-2.
Reversal of Juventus.
It can be said that throughout the entire 1999 season, Manchester United counterattacked all the way until the final Champions League final. At Camp Nou, after falling behind for 90 minutes, they scored two consecutive goals in stoppage time.
Reversal of Bayern, ushered in a big explosion, and the Red Devils have become famous ever since!
Manchester United that season was epic!
…
After many years, the process of Manchester United this season is different from that of 1999, but the spirit of the team is very similar.
This makes everyone believe that as long as Ferguson is still there, Manchester United's Red Devils spirit will not be lost!
This is why Bayern's management is so nervous.
The more critical moments come, the more the spirit of the Red Devils and Manchester United can explode into astonishing combat effectiveness.
In this case, can Bayern survive?
Especially when they saw Manchester United launch a sharp counterattack and earn a foul ball, they were even more worried.
At this time, Bayern is really at a critical moment of life and death. Someone needs to step forward, turn the tide, completely crush Manchester United's will to counterattack, and lead Bayern to victory.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Otherwise, if it really goes into overtime with a score of 2-2, Bayern will be in danger.
Bayern players also know this, so when the ball is thrown in, even Su Dong actively defends to the outside of the penalty area.
The fourth official on the sidelines has already raised a sign indicating four minutes of stoppage time. At this point in the game, both players are already quite tired, but no one is willing to let things slip at this critical moment.
Manchester United quickly threw the throw-in and found Vidic in the penalty area.
Vidic pressed Pepe and tried to stop the ball with his back, but the pressure from Pepe behind him was very strong, forcing Vidic to be unable to stop the ball and could only pass to the outside of the penalty area. As a result, no teammates responded and the ball was passed by Su
I got it.
The first thought of Beckenbauer and others was to rush forward to save the situation!
Destroy the dangerous area first!
But what everyone expected was that after Su Dong stopped the ball at the edge of the penalty area, he glanced ahead and rushed forward with the ball himself.
…
When Su Dong stopped the ball, he saw Ribery pulling to the left, pulling Brown away for him, and there was a gap in front of him.
He didn't think much about it immediately and rushed forward with the ball, but he didn't try his best in terms of speed.
He clearly knows his physical ability and must conserve his strength.
Hargreaves was near the center circle and ran over to intercept Su Dong. But before the England midfielder could get closer, Su Dong, who had retained his strength, suddenly accelerated and used his speed to rush away from Hargreaves.
Surrounded by two players, Steve and Giggs.
Just as he was approaching the midline, Brown gave up on Ribery and ran over to intercept Su Dong.
But Su Dong suddenly pushed the ball forward with great force, and accelerated himself suddenly. The ball passed past Brown, crossed the center line, and drove the ball straight towards Vidic.
At this moment, the only two central defenders standing in front of Su Dong were Ferdinand and Vidic.
Su Dong dribbled the ball straight towards Vidic. Ferdinand immediately came over and followed Su Dong.
Vidic kept retreating, but as Su Dong's speed increased, he got closer and closer, forcing him to retreat.
The Serbian central defender knew very well that he turned slowly and could not let Su Dong pass.
He immediately chose to rob.
But Su Dong had been waiting for him to grab the ball. Before Vidic could get closer, Su Dong suddenly poked the ball behind Vidic and Ferdinand. He suddenly accelerated again and hit the ball directly between the two Manchester United central defenders.
Went through it alive.
Everyone at the scene was shocked at this moment!
After Sudong broke through the defense of Ferdinand and Vidic, he caught up with the ball outside the penalty area and drove the ball straight to the penalty area. Ferdinand chased Sudong all the way to the right side of Sudong, but was always one step behind Sudong.
.
At this moment, all the fans in the audience already knew what was going to happen next, and many people couldn't help but rush out of their seats, especially Bayern fans.
The moment Su Dong rushed into the penalty area, Beckenbauer and other Bayern giants jumped up from their seats, gathering all their strength and preparing to roar.
In the stadium, Van der Sar stood on the line of the small penalty area and kept adjusting his position.
Both Ferdinand and Vidic were blocked by Su Dong, and there was nothing they could do to stop them.
Unless Su Dong makes a mistake with the ball.
This is not impossible, because by this time, Su Dong was exhausted.
In fact, Su Dong has indeed reached his limit.
Especially the several consecutive accelerations and changes of direction just now, which exhausted his remaining physical energy, and he was barely able to support himself purely by his will.
After arriving in the penalty area, he knew that his steps must not be messed up. Once he was messed up, he was entangled by Ferdinand.
Van der Sar is in a good position, but Sudong is very experienced in dealing with this situation.
He made a fake move and stretched out his right foot, looking like he was about to shoot.
When his right foot stepped on the grass, Su Dong clearly felt the sensation transmitted from his muscles.
Cramped!
But Van der Sar also fell directly to the ground.
The Dutch goalkeeper was fooled!
Su Dong's left foot was also about to cramp, but he still gritted his teeth. At the last moment, relying on his own body strength to barely maintain his balance, he kicked out with his left foot with all his strength.
The ball passed by Van der Sar's body after he fell to the ground and went directly into the bottom of the goal net behind him.
At the same moment, Su Dong fell to the ground and let out a painful roar.
