Xavi passed the gap in the middle, but he knew Pedro would definitely get into this position.

Sure enough, Xavi's ball was passed, and Pedro arrived at the first time. He led the ball forward and reached the front of the penalty area. Before Vidic could make up for defense, he pushed out a curved ball to the far corner of the goal.

Pedro played the ball very tricky. When he saw Van der Sar move towards his goal post, he hit the opposite direction.

Van der Sar is 41 years old and will retire at the end of this season. At this age, he is more of a use of his experience and consciousness to play football, and his physical function has declined seriously.

Pedro played in the opposite direction. If Van der Sar was a teenager, he might be able to turn around and save the ball with his powerful waist and abdomen. But now, he can't even make a save, so he can only look back and watch the ball fly into his own goal.

1:0

Barcelona broke the deadlock with a quick counterattack.

After scoring the goal, Pedro was extremely excited. He raised his hands and ran to the stands frantically.

The Barcelona fans in the stands were even more excited than Pedro. They all jumped up at the moment of scoring the goal and shouted wildly at Pedro on the court.

Barcelona players also rushed towards Pedro and surrounded him in the middle. The big guys touched his head and patted his back and praised him.

Guardiola on the sidelines also jumped half a meter high and waved his fist hard. For a ball-control team like Barcelona, ​​the most feared thing is that they cannot score goals. As long as they get the lead, they can use their obscene ball control to kill their opponents.

The commentator on the scene was also cheering for Barcelona's wonderful counterattack, "Beautiful! This counterattack is so beautiful! Iniesta's escape, Xavi's pass, and Pedro's fatal blow! This counterattack is as concise and effective as a textbook! Barcelona has always had the advantage on the scene before, but now they have turned their advantage into goals. With Barcelona's control, it is not easy for Manchester United to equalize the score."

China's commentator He Hui was also very disappointed, "Barcelona scored the first goal. For Manchester United, this is the worst situation, because after the opening, Manchester United had tried to attack, but could not play Barcelona, ​​pressed and couldn't grab Barcelona's ball. Now Barcelona is leading the score, and will definitely use the ball to attract Manchester United players, consume the physical strength of Manchester United players, and then use the opponent's physical strength to counterattack to end the game. Let's see how Manchester United and Ferguson cope with this situation."

Of course, Manchester United's players were very depressed and disappointed, but they had to admit that Barcelona's counterattack was indeed wonderful. The only chance for Manchester United to avoid this counterattack was to foul Iniesta in advance. Once Iniesta starts passing the ball, Manchester United will have no chance. Whether the ball will be lost in the end depends on the opponent.

Ferguson's face was as deep as water. Manchester United didn't take any advantage in the past 30 minutes in the first half and even lost a goal. The blame could only be carried by him, the head coach.

Ferguson is a very rational and decisive person. There was a problem with his arrangement before the game. He made a change ten minutes later, asking the forward to give up the high-pressure and retreat Rooney. This indeed prevented Barcelona's midfielder from passing, but he was unable to defend Barcelona's counterattack.

Now there is definitely no way to make a substitution and adjust it. Ferguson called Gao Xiaodong and Rooney over, asking them to strengthen the pressing of the players holding the ball when counterattacking against the opponent, preventing the opponent from making a quick shot, and leaving time for the defender to defend.

In the VIP box, Glazer's youngest son Edward was already blown up. He sneered and said to his elder brother Evram: "Look, you'll lose the ball, you'll probably lose! What is Gao Xiaodong playing? It doesn't work at all. If he plays like this, he's so embarrassed to invite us to watch the game."

Evram also had a bad face. In order to support the team and consider winning the championship, everyone has the opportunity to show off. Unexpectedly, Manchester United played so poorly in the first half, which made Evram regret it. He thought he should just let his younger brother Joel come and forget it, and he shouldn't join in the fun.

Joel may have seen his elder brother's dissatisfaction, and he quickly explained: "Barcelona is a super strong team. It is not easy for Manchester United to win them, and it is not easy to stop them from scoring. However, it is still a long time, and I think Manchester United still has another chance to score..."

"Goal? When will it be? Manchester United can make it, can Barcelona score again?" Edward interrupted Joel.

Joel was speechless because no one could say this. In addition, Joel didn't want to compete with his little brother Edward, because it was obvious that Edward wanted to show it to the beauty.

Emma, ​​who sat with Darcy, was in a bad mood. Today, Chelsea fan supported Manchester United, to be precise, she came to support Gao Xiaodong, because Gao Xiaodong invited her before the game. Unfortunately, Gao Xiaodong has no goals now and the team is still behind.

Darcy rarely watches football because in the United States, football is not a popular sport, but she cares about her family business and asked Emma: "Emma, ​​I don't know much about football. Do you think we can still win?"

Emma whispered: "There is hope, Manchester United coach Ferguson is very good."

Dassie smiled and leaned into Emma's ear and said, "Is Gao Xiaodong awesome?"

Emma's face turned hot, but she was an actor, she covered it up very well and smiled: "Awesome, he is the core of Manchester United, the top scorer in the league and Champions League."

Dashy smiled and said, "Are you very familiar with me? How are you doing now? Does my brother still have a show?"

Emma quickly glanced at Edward and said, "What's the show but not the show? I'll treat Edward as a friend."

Dashy sighed, "Then my brother looks like hell is out of the way."

When Manchester United fans were disappointed and Barcelona fans were in a carnival, the game started again.

Manchester United kicked off the middle circle and immediately launched an attack on Barcelona from the wing.

Manchester United's attack is very simple, Valencia and Park Ji-sung use their speed to launch an attack from both sides. If they break through, they will cross from the bottom. If they can't break through, they will cross from the middle or directly 45 degrees to the penalty area.

Manchester United's first offensive attempt was successful. Valencia and Gao Xiaodong made a long-distance two-pass one. Valencia successfully attacked Abidal and knocked the ball across the penalty area at the bottom line.

However, Valencia's speed was too fast. When he crossed, Rooney and Hernandez were unable to encircle the ball, and neither of the two forwards could run. Gao Xiaodong and several midfielders must have not been in place either, so they could only watch the ball fly out of the sideline.

Although Manchester United's attack was successful, Barcelona then strengthened its defense on the wing, and Manchester United's attack on the wing was immediately curbed. First, Valencia waded through Abidal, the ball was snatched by Mascherano, who quickly made up for defense.
