The football hit the snow-white net. Lukaku quickly stood up, opened his arms, turned and ran towards Luke Shaw who sent a wonderful assist, and jointly celebrated the goal to expand the score.

Tottenham fans at the new Wembley Stadium were silent. Manchester United fans seized the opportunity and shouted hysterically, temporarily turning the stadium into a sea of ​​joy for them.

Mourinho, who was standing in the visiting team's coach's command area, raised his arms calmly and shook them a few times to celebrate the team's expanded score.

Such scenes have happened too many times to him, so there is no need to act like he hasn't scored a goal in a long time.

In stark contrast, Pochettino was in the home team coach's command area. He stood with his mouth half-open and dull, obviously not thinking about why the team suddenly lost the ball when the situation was dominant.

BBC commentator Lineker told the real situation:"For Manchester United to expand the score, it is very important to control the rhythm with Kerry. His fake dunk was very important and deceived Tottenham Hotspur's entire defense. The left The pass with his feet was just right. Luke Shaw didn't need to make any adjustments at all. All he had to do was pass the ball directly without stopping, as all professional players can do.……"

The on-site director showed the goal that Manchester United scored to expand the score, and the broadcast screen showed the Tottenham players who were in a bad mood.

Harry Kane, Son Heung-min, Alli, Eriksen, Wanyama, Alderweireld... every player is sad and in a low mood, and there are Tottenham fans sitting in front of the TV watching the game. I had the urge to turn off the TV, if I didn't still have a glimmer of hope in my heart... After a brief psychological adjustment, Pochettino sighed in his heart. Before the start of this game, he was indeed hoping to win the tie, but he knew in his heart that this The possibility is very low.

Mu's second year was already terrifying, and with Van Carey in excellent form and full firepower, a draw would be an ideal state. Winning?

The difficulty level is no less than Tottenham's comeback to win the league championship this season.

Besides, the new Wembley Stadium is just a temporary home stadium on loan and cannot have the effect of White Hart Lane at all.

But as a professional coach, he cannot give up easily, otherwise there is a high probability that the players will lose trust in him.

You can lose the game, but you can't count people.

So, Pochettino shouted at the players on the field and waved his arms incitingly:"Cheer up! Isn't it just two goals behind? What's the big deal? The greatest charm of football games is that they are full of discord. Certainty! As long as we have hope, why not? This is our home court!"

Silent leaders Harry Kane, Son Heung-min, Alli and Eriksen thought about it too. The game was indeed two goals behind. What if?

"oaoaooaoaoooaooaoooooo——"

Tottenham fans at the new Wembley Stadium, led by major fan leaders, gradually regained their high fighting spirit and created a huge roar that surrounded the entire stadium.

Tottenham's performance in the restarted game was completely different from the previous two teams, showing a very good competitive state.

First, Son Heung-min, who had high hopes from South Korea fans, cut in from the left wing and took a long shot, forcing De Gea to make a key save. Then Ali received Harry Kane's header and hit it at the top of the penalty area with a low kick. , the fast-moving football touched the left goal post and went out of the baseline, shocking the Manchester United fans at the scene into a cold sweat.

After two consecutive threatening shots, Manchester United head coach Mourinho couldn't sit still. The visiting team's coach roared at the players who were a little lazy on the field.

Captain Van Kerry also took advantage of the interval when De Gea was preparing to kick off and shouted to his teammates:"Brothers, don't take it lightly. The first half is not over yet. Tottenham Hotspur has the ability to overtake the score! Manchester City has already We won, we can't lose points!"

With Mourinho and Van Carey working together, the mentality of Manchester United players stabilized. In the following game time, Tottenham rarely created threats to De Gea's goal. offensive.

Considering that Manchester United would face the challenge of Huddersfield at home three days later, it mainly focused on conduction. Until the end of the first half, the 0:2 score displayed on the scoreboard did not change.

※※※

The fifteen-minute intermission passed quickly, and players from both sides returned to the court one after another. The Tottenham players shown by the on-site director showed very indifferent expressions, as if they were not interested in winning or losing.

Manchester City coach Guardiola, who was sitting in front of the TV watching the live game, completely lost confidence in Tottenham. Whether a team can create miracles mainly depends on whether the players have the momentum to burn everything.

Obviously, the Tottenham players who were two goals behind did not

"Beep~"

With the referee Marriner's long whistle, the second half of the game between Manchester United and Tottenham began.

Manchester United's offensive organization, which has a kick-off advantage, is very patient and makes reasonable use of the width of the court to involve Tottenham's defense. Van Kerry is still The Manchester United offensive player that Tottenham's defense pays the most attention to, his every move is closely watched.

Van Kerry feels that the team is leading by two goals, and the Tottenham players' offense lacks changes, and it is difficult to pose a direct threat to De Gea's goal. Just wandering around the court leisurely, involving Tottenham's offense and defense.

The progress of the game was relatively dull. The PP sports commentator shook his head and said:"Why do I feel that this game is more like a 0:0 friendly match? Manchester United's two-goal lead is understandable. The problem is that Tottenham are still two goals behind. This... the home fans must be too miserable."

In a blink of an eye, the game came to seventy minutes, and the scoreboard showed that the score difference was still 0:2. Both sides made adjustments to their lineups, but unfortunately it did not help the offense. There were only twenty minutes left in the game, and the home team Tottenham Still did not show a turnaround performance. The Tottenham fans in the audience could not wait any longer and began to leave the game one after another, expressing their strong dissatisfaction.

"wowoowowoowoooooooo——"

However, at this moment, there was a burst of exclamation in the sky above the new Wembley Stadium.

Tottenham fans who were queuing up to leave suddenly looked around, thinking there was some good news, but it turned out that Van Kerry fell in the penalty area... bad luck!

Tottenham fans turned around proudly and continued to line up to leave.

However, the referee Marriner gave not a penalty kick, but a direct free kick from the penalty area line.

The foul location was on the left side of the penalty area line, which is more suitable for a right-footed player to take the penalty. Both Pogba and Matic, who has good left-footed skills, are ready to take the direct free kick.

Fan Kerry suddenly had an idea, got in between the two, and asked for the right to take the penalty.

Although both Pogba and Matic wanted to take a kick, to be honest, the location of this free kick was too close to the goal. Their free kicks needed to fall from a certain distance, otherwise they would have a high probability of going over the crossbar.

Seeing that captain Fan Kerry wanted to give it a try, there was no resistance at all.

Van Carey has outstanding footwork, which is the consensus of the world football. Standing in front of the goal, Lloris felt tremendous pressure.

Tottenham's six-man wall felt varying degrees of tension when referee Marriner's whistle sounded:"Beep."~"

"Does Van Kerry want to take this direct free kick?"

The fans sitting in front of the TV watched as Van Carey started to run, one step, two steps, and the third step. His left foot stood about 30 centimeters to the left of the football, and his right foot quickly swung forward from behind.

Nervous Tottenham Hotspur The wall of people shuddered when they thought that Fan Kerry was not an expert at free kicks. Such a run-up method had a high probability of using great force to achieve miracles. They each used their hands to cover their faces and crotches, and jumped up in tacit understanding. The corners of Fan Kerry's mouth raised slightly.

This is what he was waiting for. Look!

Van Kerry's right foot hit the middle of the football with the instep. The football was forced to move forward close to the ground and quickly passed under Tottenham's six-man wall, almost grazing the inside edge of the left goal post. Crossing the goal line and hitting the snow-white net.

Lloris, who was ready to make a save, froze on the spot without any movement. His brain still retained this thought: This...how is it different from what I thought?
