Chapter 323, Powerless

In the locker room of the home team, Jin Taige looked at the exhausted appearance of his players, and he was very anxious. Just after 45 minutes, the players' physical strength has been exhausted so badly that the second half will definitely be very difficult.

Jin Taige encouraged the players: "We encountered a lot of difficulties in the first half and conceded a goal, but I am quite satisfied with your performance. Martial, you are facing Ramos and Pepe. Time, feel the pressure, this is the strength of a world-class central defender combination; Kanter, you also suffered a lot when defending Ronaldo. The Champions League is no better than the Premier League. There are many powerful opponents. The experience on the stage has greatly improved your growth rate."

In the first half, Martial's physical energy consumption was very serious. His physical reserve is not a strong point. After the first half of the defense, Martial didn't even have the physical strength to attack forward. Kintag looked at the bench, he chose Valencia between Valencia and Salah. After all, Valencia has more experience and has a balanced offense and defense, which is suitable for dealing with the current situation.

In the first half, De Bruyne didn't do much in the frontcourt. He was exhausted in defense. He was already weak in defense, which didn't help the team's defense much, and even affected his offense. Jin Taige used Giggs to replace him, and wanted to use Giggs' experience to let him control the rhythm of the game in the midfield.

After these two substitutions and adjustments, Jin Taige asked the players again: "If this game ends according to this score, then I can accept it. When we return to our home court, the disadvantage of this goal is not a problem."

In the visiting team's locker room, Ancelotti continued to ask the players: "Your ability to seize opportunities needs to be strengthened. You created so many opportunities in the first half, but only scored one goal. This conversion rate is a bit low. The tactics in the second half are still the same, play against Manchester United and score as many goals as possible."

Then, Ancelotti asked Alonso: "Xavi, are you not feeling well?"

Alonso nodded: "My old ankle injury hurts a bit, but it shouldn't affect the game."

Ancelotti noticed at the end of the first half that Alonso's right foot was a bit different than usual, and hearing what he said, Ancelotti hurriedly asked the team doctor to check. After checking by the team doctor, he said there was nothing wrong with it, just some muscle fatigue.

Ancelotti knew that in the end the game was relatively intensive and Alonso was almost at full attendance, so this happened. In order to prevent him from accidental injuries, Ancelotti decided to let him rest and replace him with Casemiro.

At this time, Ancelotti suddenly thought of someone.

Since last season, he has been paying attention to Bayern's young midfielder Kroos. According to Ancelotti, Kroos definitely has the potential to become the next Pirlo! In the current team,

Alonso is a well-deserved midfield commander and dealer, controlling the rhythm of the game, but Alonso is getting old, and he doesn't know how to last for a few more years, so reserve midfielders in advance, and Real Madrid Must do.

Ancelotti asked Real Madrid to let them negotiate with Bayern in advance and prepare to buy Kroos at the end of the season. He heard that Kroos and Bayern were in a quarrel over the contract renewal issue, and this is a good time to poach people.

However, the Real Madrid club has not done it for a long time, which makes Ancelotti very dissatisfied. Ancelotti understands that Real Madrid's buyers are very famous. They must think that Kroos is too young and does not have enough honors to be worthy of Real Madrid's position, so they have not made a move for a long time.

Just when Ancelotti was about to ask the club again, a transfer news fell from the sky: Bayern Club spent 10 million euros plus Cross to buy Rooney.

By the time Ancelotti got the news, the transfer had already been done. Because of this incident, Ancelotti was secretly annoyed for a long time. Because of the arrogance and hesitation of Real Madrid's top management, it is a pity to let go of such an excellent midfield star.

But now he saw that Alonso was slightly uncomfortable, and he thought of Kroos. If he bought Kroos himself, then the dependence on Alonso next season will not be so serious. But now...

Alas, the search for suitable transfer targets will continue after the season is over.

"Dear audience friends, the second half of the game has already begun. Because the two sides fought fiercely in the first half of the game, both teams have made substitution adjustments. Manchester United replaced Martial with Valencia and Ryan Giggs And De Bruyne, Real Madrid replaced Alonso with Casemiro."

"After the game restarted, Real Madrid was still on the offensive."

"Bell gradually became active in the second half. His two consecutive breakthroughs with the ball made Manchester United's right back Rafael very embarrassed."

"Cut inside! A long shot from the outside instep! De Gea poked it with his fingertip, and the ball went out of the baseline!"

"Bell's continuous attack on the left has shared a lot of pressure on Ronaldo on the right. The two of them have continuously attacked Manchester United's defense, making Manchester United helpless to fight back!"

At this time, the game had gone on for 66 minutes, and the Manchester United players were already sweating profusely and panting.

This game is too tough.

With Ramos and Pepe double-teaming, Van Persie had no chance at all.

Mahrez and Carvajal are entangled and it is difficult to break through the defense.

And Evra and Rafael are the two hardest players in this game. If they had a choice, they would rather choose to face the combination of Robery than Ronaldo and Bale.

Facing Benzema's erratic movement, Smalling also felt extremely strenuous.

Kintag looked at the players off the field, he had nothing to do, the strength gap between this Manchester United team and their opponents was really too big, with these young people, Manchester United was able to fight forward in the Premier League and compete for the top spot position; they can also rely on blood and fighting spirit to overcome obstacles in the Champions League and reach the semi-finals all the way.

But at this stage, it is difficult for Manchester United to go any further.

Jin Taige didn't want to admit it in his heart, but he had to admit it. It seems like an impossible task for his own team to cross Real Madrid in front of them.

Now he needs a player who can stand up and bring spiritual strength to the team, but Kintag doesn't have it in his hands. Maybe a few years later, a few young people he favors can complete such a task, but now it seems , but they were a little helpless.

What Kintag can do now is to continue to believe in his players on the field, expecting them to create miracles, overthrow the powerful Real Madrid in the away game, and then return to Manchester with their heads held high!
