148. Silence at Old Trafford

The goal was scored! Van der Sar was very depressed. In this game, he was hit by lob shots twice, and he even wanted to cry. And these two times, he had no chance at all. It was so embarrassing.

Already.

The moment the football crashed into the goal, all Manchester United fans felt their hearts breaking! It was as if it was the end of the world for them, and the entire sky lost color.

The entire Old Trafford stadium was in dead silence. All Manchester United people were in tears and speechless. Their hearts seemed to be torn apart. It hurt!

On the sidelines, watching the football fly into the goal, Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson angrily kicked the mineral water bottle next to him into the sky. For this, he also attracted a warning from the fourth official.

On the other side, Benfica cheered and roared excitedly. The first place in the group belongs to Benfica, and it belongs to him! Benfica fans chanted the names of Simang and Qiu Ze in the stands. They are

The perfect hero among Benfica fans.

At this time, Qiu Ze was very grateful to Rui Costa in the Benfica team. Without his careful guidance, Qiu Ze believed that he would not have such an amazing performance, especially the last kick that was just right rather than subtle.

long ball.

Qiu Ze, who had given a wonderful assist, suddenly ran quickly towards Benfica's bench on the sidelines. He rushed to Rui Costa on the bench and gave the teacher a grateful hug.

Qiu Ze knows that joining Benfica is the most correct decision he has made in his career. He is very grateful to Rui Costa and Benfica.

The players of Benfica are celebrating, but the players of Manchester United are bleeding in their hearts. Is our powerful Manchester United really unable to qualify from the Champions League group for two consecutive seasons? Is our powerful Manchester United really going to fail for two consecutive seasons?

Eliminated by Benfica in the first season?

Damn Benfica, damn the Portuguese guys! The Manchester United players hated the Benfica guys at this time.

Cristiano Ronaldo stared at Benfica's No. 10 with his hands on his hips and a gloomy face. At this time, he hated this guy to death. Without this guy, would Manchester United have been forced to this point?

Damn you guy! I won't let you go! Cristiano Ronaldo thought viciously.

And at this time, news came from another stadium. Copenhagen scored another goal. Copenhagen, who had been eliminated, unexpectedly burst out with amazing energy in the last game. They actually led Kaifa 3-0 at their home court.

The Celtics.

At this time, the fans in Copenhagen felt very bitter. If the team could show such energy earlier, one of the teams that qualified from the group would definitely be them. What a pity!

Copenhagen led Celtic 3-0 and had already established the victory. However, the Manchester United team could not be happy because the 2-0 score was pressing heavily on him, leaving them breathless.

Before the game, how much they hoped that Copenhagen would beat Celtic, but now, they didn't even feel anything about it. The Manchester United players felt very bitter.

However, now is not the time to give up. There is still time before the end of the game. Giving up at this time is not their style. In the history of Manchester United, they have scored two goals in a row in the final stoppage time.

What can't be done?

Now that there was plenty of time, the Manchester United people did not give up. They immediately launched the craziest attack. They did not want to be eliminated in such a dejected manner.

Manchester United's attack came again, and this time it was Michael Carrick in the middle who took the ball. After this guy got the ball, he immediately looked for a passing point. He didn't seem to have the intention of taking the ball forward. Benfica's

The players seemed to have noticed this, so the defense against him didn't seem to be too tight.

When Michael Carrick took the ball, he saw that the passing points around him were blocked and the defense in front of him was very lax. He immediately moved the football forward and then quickly drove the ball towards Benfica's penalty area.

The Benfica players were shocked. They really didn't expect that Michael Carrick would suddenly dribble forward with the ball. Qiu Ze immediately pounced on him and bumped hard with his shoulder. Michael Carrick was dribbling the ball forward.

Carrick.

Qiu Ze's collision with this ball was reasonable, and he also hit Michael Carrick's shoulder. However, Qiu Ze's body is very strong and powerful. In addition, Michael Carrick was somewhat unprepared.

Full, so Michael Carrick was immediately knocked to the ground and fell to the ground.

"Butcher! Garbage! Bastard! Fuck him to death!" Seeing Michael Carrick knocked to the ground, the already very excited Manchester United fans suddenly burst out, cursing Qiu Ze crazily in the stands, and even

Some guys even threw hard objects wildly into the stadium, seemingly determined not to stop until Qiu Ze was hit.

Seeing the Manchester United fans insulting their idol, the Benfica fans gave up and immediately jumped out and cursed the Manchester United fans. Some guys even threw hard objects at the stands where the Manchester United fans gathered, mercilessly shouting.

Smash the opponent.

All of a sudden, there was a bit of chaos at Old Trafford. The security riot police on the scene were immediately dispatched. They did not want any riots to break out and something unfortunate to happen. They were very efficient and quickly appeared in the stand area where the trouble was taking place.

, they immediately separated the Benfica and Manchester United fans, and even took some irrational fans out of the stadium, and then controlled the development of the situation.

During this period, the game on the court had to be suspended for six or seven minutes because the stadium was not safe. Some Manchester United fans were throwing hard objects into the stadium. The referee was afraid that the players would be injured.

The game was called to a halt.

It took nearly ten minutes for the situation to be brought under control. Fans in one of the stands in the Old Trafford Stadium had already been kicked out. There were not many people left in that stand, which seemed a little awkward.

Sparse.

After the matter was under control, the game restarted. However, the referee did not drop the ball and restart the game. Instead, he gave Manchester United a direct free kick in the frontcourt. His reason was that Qiu Ze fouled Michael Carrick.

This was originally a reasonable collision, but because this is the home court of Manchester United, and Manchester United is still two goals behind, and the mood of the Manchester United fans is very unstable, he took care of the Manchester United team, which naturally caused the Benfica players to

and fans’ dissatisfaction.

But the referee still insisted on his penalty, and the Benfica people had to accept it. However, the ball was still a certain distance from Benfica's goal. It was 367 meters wide, so it did not pose a great threat to Benfica's goal.

Therefore, Benfica's players went back to defense without much argument.

Cristiano Ronaldo of Manchester United is standing in front of the football. This distance is a bit far for him. Benfica players believe that this guy does not dare to shoot from this position. Even if he shoots, it is not very big.

Threatening.

The same Manchester United players also think so. They also believe that it is definitely not the most reasonable to choose a free kick to directly attack the goal in this position.

However, Cristiano Ronaldo just didn't follow the routine. He ran quickly in front of the football, and then hit the football with his kick, whipping the football towards Benfica's goal.

Everyone in the audience was shocked. They did not expect that Cristiano Ronaldo would choose to shoot from this position. Benfica's wall did not react at all, and the football flew over their heads quickly, and then quickly

Falling from the ground, flying towards the goal behind them.

In front of the goal, Benfica's goalkeeper Quaim obviously did not expect Cristiano Ronaldo to shoot directly from that position, so his reaction was half a beat too slow, and the football flew directly in front of his hands and towards the goal behind him.

.

At that time, Quaim's heart sank to the bottom. He thought he would definitely lose the ball. But the Manchester United fans raised their hands in surprise. This was really an unexpected surprise.

It's a pity that the football hit the pillar of Benfica's goal hard and then bounced off the baseline. Cristiano Ronaldo's free kick was only a few centimeters away from the goal. What a pity. Manchester United fans were filled with regret.

At this time, Manchester United does not have much time left, so Manchester United fans are very, very anxious. They hope that the team can score a goal as soon as possible, otherwise they will really be finished and will be eliminated.

.

During this period, Qiu Ze has completely become a defensive midfielder. This guy played this position when he was in Sporting Lisbon, so he is still very adaptable. However, this makes the Manchester United players very uncomfortable.

, because this guy's defensive strength is not much worse than his offensive strength.

Scholes and Michael Carrick were tortured by this guy a lot, but Manchester United would not give up so easily and they continued to attack.

In the 71st minute of this game, Manchester United launched an attack from the wing. Cristiano Ronaldo broke through like crazy on the wing. After breaking through two people in a row, he suddenly passed the football into Benfica's penalty area. In the penalty area, Manchester United's

Saha and Wayne Rooney jumped up crazily, competing for a header.

However, the football was pushed out of the penalty area by Benfica's central defender Luison. However, Benfica's danger did not come into contact. The football quickly flew towards Scholes, who was rushing up. This guy had a long shot.

The Benfica players were all worried. Scholes rushed up to meet the ball and volleyed. Unfortunately, he did not draw the football. The football was scooped up by Qiu Ze who rushed up. The football rolled.

Anderson's feet.

However, Anderson's clearance was intercepted by Michael Carrick, who volleyed the ball directly from the edge of the penalty area and the ball missed the goal slightly.

Manchester United's attack became more and more fierce. At this time, almost the entire Benfica team retreated to the edge of the penalty area. It was like a bus parked in front of Benfica's goal. This made the Manchester United fans very upset.

Displeased, they cursed Benfica for being shameless.

At this time, another game ended. Copenhagen defeated Celtic 3-1 at home. This was the result that Manchester United wanted. However, this result does not seem to be of much help to them now.

The match between Manchester United and Benfica was suspended for ten minutes due to fan conflict, so now there are still ten minutes left in the game.

Manchester United wanted to score three goals in the last ten minutes. This was too difficult. All Manchester United fans thought it was impossible. However, they did not give up. They were still cheering for Manchester United.

Hope Manchester United can create a miracle.

The players of Manchester United did not give up. They were still attacking like crazy. At this time, they still believed that they could beat Benfica and they would advance to the next round. The players of Manchester United were attacking like crazy and attacking desperately, but

As time passed, they still failed to score a goal.

The atmosphere at Old Trafford became more and more depressing, and the faces of Manchester United fans were covered with tears. However, the goal they were waiting for still did not come. Gradually, the hearts of the Manchester United fans died, and they were not very happy.

It jumped.

At this time, Manchester United scored a goal. Giggs broke through from the wing and suddenly crossed the penalty area. Wayne Rooney fell to the ground in the penalty area and shot the ball into Benfica's door.

However, it was too late at this time. When the football rolled into the door of Benfica, the referee blew the whistle to end the game. Manchester United finally lost to Benfica 1-2 at home and was once again eliminated by Benfica.

Champions League group stage.
