Chapter 1031, Tragic Hero

The visiting team fans cheered loudly in the Old Trafford Stadium! They were ecstatic about this goal!

In the past period of time, as time went by, Paris fans became more and more desperate. They felt that the Champions League quarter-finals were getting further and further away from Paris... but Neymar's go-ahead goal gave them a renewed hope. hope!

Paris fans chanted Neymar's name loudly!

He is the last hope of Parisians!

At this time, Cavani fished the ball out of the net, followed Neymar with the ball and ran to the center circle. Neymar shouted to his teammates: "We are still two goals away! Come on, guys!"

Emery, who had just finished his excited celebration, looked up at the time card. It was already the 70th minute of the game. The total score had now become 5 to 6. They were only one goal behind Manchester United, plus the goal difference disadvantage. It’s only two goals, Paris still has a chance!

At this time, Emery gave it a try. He replaced three attacking players in a row, allowing the team to give it a try and try their best to win the game in the last 20 minutes!

On Manchester United's side, Kim Tiger has also made some adjustments. He replaced the left and right full-backs Alonso and Kimmich, whose physical fitness had declined, and replaced them with the young Mendy and Pavard. He hoped that these two people could use their abundant physical strength to continue to struggle with their opponents.

Then Kim Tiger replaced Kroos and replaced him with Nainggolan, and Manchester United's strongest defensive combination was reunited.

This substitution had an immediate effect. As soon as Nainggolan came on the field, he knocked away Di Maria who was advancing quickly with the ball. The Argentine fell to the ground in pain and did not get up for a long time. Nainggolan received a yellow card for a blocking foul, and Di Maria also came off the field for treatment.

Scholes said helplessly off the court: "I got a yellow card just one minute after coming off the bench. This guy couldn't have been sent off just after he came on the field..."

Kim Tiger didn't care: "Now that Paris has used up all the substitution places, Nainggolan's appearance will definitely make them restrain themselves appropriately."

After Di Maria reappeared, he was indeed much quieter. When facing Manchester United's defense, he no longer had the decisive and sharp breakthrough before. The same was true for other players. Paris' offense was suppressed for a while.

In the 75th minute of the game, after completing a reluctant shot, Neymar fell to the ground without physical confrontation.

The team doctor carried him off the court, and Neymar then revealed the truth about his toe injury. Looking at his current condition, he was sweating profusely in pain, and he would definitely not be able to continue playing anymore.

At this time Emery felt distressed, anxious and angry.

What's sad is that Neymar is in so much pain and he doesn't know the extent of his injury.

What is anxious is the score on the field. Neymar is off the field, Paris' most threatening person is no longer there, and their biggest reliance for a comeback is suddenly gone.

What makes him angry is that Neymar should have told him about his injury earlier, so that he could prepare in advance and at least leave a substitution spot with Neymar, instead of having to play with one less person on the field like now.

After Neymar left the field, Paris almost lost hope of a comeback. They looked at Neymar off the field from time to time, hoping that the Brazilian could stand up again, return to the field alive and kicking, and fight with them to win the final ten points. minute.

But when the Paris players saw Neymar being carried into the tunnel on a stretcher, they knew that Neymar would definitely not be back in this game.

Without Neymar, who else can lead Paris forward?

Is it Di Maria, who has been intimidated by Nainggolan, or Cavani, who needs support in the penalty area?

Or Verratti, Rabiot or Pastore in the midfield?

The Paris players on the field have empty eyes, and their fighting spirit is disintegrating bit by bit...

At this time, in the player tunnel, the Paris team doctor was asking Neymar: "How are you doing? Does it hurt?"

Neymar gently wiped his tears: "Yes, it hurts.

It hurt so much that I burst into tears. "

"We will be at the hospital soon. Just keep holding on!" the team doctor comforted Neymar.

But at this time Neymar had closed his eyes and said nothing.

This season has ended early. It feels really bad to have unfulfilled ambitions...

Seeing Neymar's departure, Jin Taige felt sad and helpless: "Injuries are really disgusting. If Neymar is still on the court, no one is sure what will happen in the last ten minutes. .”

Ferran was very happy: "No matter what, Neymar is off the field, we will definitely win this game!"

After Neymar left the field, the Paris players completely lost their confidence in making a comeback. They were like a bicycle with the valve core pulled out, and they were suddenly unable to move forward.

In the 80th minute of the game, Manchester United equalized the score through a frontcourt collaboration.

This time it was De Bruyne's long pass, which directly found Salah who was advancing from the wing. After Salah passed two people, he passed the ball to Mbappe at the back point. After Mbappe stopped the ball, He took a step, then took a volley, and the ball went into the near corner of the goal!

2 to 2! Manchester United equalized the score again!

There are now about ten minutes left before the end of the game. If Paris wants to advance, they must score three consecutive goals in the last ten minutes!

Looking at the current state of the Paris players, this is absolutely impossible. Let alone a comeback, even maintaining this draw is difficult.

In the 86th minute of the game, Griezmann received a precise pass from De Bruyne. Through a personal and flexible escape, he suddenly shot a cold arrow at the edge of the penalty area and the ball hit the dead center of the goal!

3 to 2! Manchester United finally overtook the score!

At this time, the Paris players had completely lost their energy. No, it should be said that when Manchester United equalized the score just now, the Paris players knew that the game was over.

In the next few minutes, the Paris players seemed to have lost their souls on the court. They no longer pressed forward in attack and were slow in defense. If Manchester United had not been unlucky in this game, Paris might have lost a few more. ball.

In the first minute of injury time, Salah's shot hit the post again and bounced out of bounds.

Salah shook his head helplessly: "I'm really unlucky this season. I finally got rid of the goal drought, but I hit the goalpost in several consecutive games. It's depressing."

There was two minutes of injury time, but at one and a half minutes, the referee blew the whistle to end the game. Manchester United won 5-3 in the first round and 3-2 in the second round. With a score of 8-5 in the two rounds, Manchester United eliminated the powerful Paris Saint-Germain and successfully advanced to the Champions League quarterfinals!
