On the pitch, the Manchester United players were celebrating; in the stands, the Red Devils fans were jubilant.
Sir Bobby Charlton was sitting in the stands, looking at the cheering Manchester United fans with mixed feelings in his heart.
Ronaldo, who assisted, and Rooney, who scored, have become the idols of all Red Devils fans.
These two people clearly reflect the generation gap between people of different eras, as well as the aesthetic values of different eras.
The older generation of fans are still immersed in loyalty and records, while the new generation of people born in the 80s and 90s are screaming for their idols until they faint.
This final provides the best battlefield for fans of both groups.
Last year's Golden Globe winner Kaka is most in line with the "taste" of the older generation.
Dedicated, clean, humble, not arrogant, handsome, no scandals, no nightclubs, few fouls, always talking about God, full of gratitude in his heart, others visit brothels while he goes to church...
Let’s look at the idol in the eyes of the Red Devils today. He is provocative, flopping, showy, soliciting prostitutes, arrogant, arrogant, immoral in his private life, and capricious on transfer issues...
But even so, Lu Xiaopang and Ronaldo kept scoring goals and capturing more fans with goals.
"Times have really changed!" Sir Charlton sighed, "Fortunately, Manchester United can still score goals, which is enough..."
There is no doubt that Ronaldo and Rooney have become the most popular stars of the new generation of Manchester United.
Don't look at the opposite Wang Xiaodong who is better than Ronaldo in scoring statistics.
But so what?
Is he a Manchester United player?
Is he wearing a Red Devils jersey?
In the eyes of Manchester United fans, Wang Xiaodong is just a young man who "brushed up statistics" in "abusive" games. Compared with rising stars like Ronaldo and Rooney who can score crucial goals in the finals, he is still far behind. So little.
Regardless of Wang Xiaodong's previous statistics, didn't Wang Xiaodong not score a goal in today's Champions League final?
Having said that, in the stands on the other side, fans who support Wang Xiaodong still account for the majority.
At this point, there is actually no difference between Wang Xiaodong, Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney.
He is different from Kaka's humility and courtesy. When English fans mention Wang Xiaodong, they will immediately think of his violence and arrogance.
This Oriental boy who dared to engage in a 1V11 live PK on the court was labeled "violent" by fans from the moment he debuted.
Again.
so what?
As long as he can score goals, Wang Xiaodong is Tottenham's only god!
This Champions League final has entered a fierce stage with the fierce confrontation between the two sides.
Seeing Tottenham intensifying their midfield pressure, Wang Xiaodong began to turn from passive to active, and continued to attack. Manchester United midfielder Carrick and the injured Scholes were somewhat unable to hold back.
Ferguson stretched out five fingers on the sidelines and kept shouting "FIVE, FIVE".
As a result, Lu Xiaopang quickly retreated and organized a five-man midfield.
As a result, Manchester United's ball possession rate increased slowly, and Tottenham had no choice but to use long passes again to try to open up the wing channels.
...
In the 67th minute, Rooney was intercepted while dribbling the ball in the frontcourt. Wang Xiaodong quickly found Bell with a through ball.
Bell's low ball from the left side of the penalty area was sent to the center. Robbie Keane's shot deviated from the goal under Vidic's tackle.
In the 72nd minute, Evra made a pass from the right, and Tevez's shot from 25 yards from the left missed the near corner.
One minute later, Modric passed a cross, and Wang Xiaodong hurriedly kicked the ball high in front of the top of the penalty area.
In the 80th minute, Vidic fouled Robbie Keane. Modric passed the ball with a free kick. Defoe, who came on for substitute Berba, shot from a small angle and missed the near corner.
In the 83rd minute, Joe Cole made a pass from the right, and Drogba's shot from the front missed again.
As time passed little by little, Sir Alex finally made his first substitution card before the end, replacing Scholes with Giggs.
The first substitution of coaches from both sides came belatedly, and they seemed to expect that it would be difficult to score again in the next game.
Five minutes after Giggs came on, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.
Just like that, the game was dragged into overtime.
...
In the 94th minute of overtime, Manchester United escaped again.
Wang Xiaodong's through ball accurately hit the ball into the Manchester United penalty area. However, Defoe turned and shot from 12 yards and hit the crossbar. Bell's volley from 10 yards also missed the goal.
Later, Manchester United almost scored in the 100th minute.
Evra broke into the left side of the penalty area and passed the ball back. When Giggs almost missed the goal from 10 yards, Wang Xiaodong, who was defended in time, headed over the crossbar.
The back-and-forth between the two sides was still fierce into overtime. At this stage of the game, it has completely entered a non-stop situation.
"Roar!!!"
After blocking Giggs' inevitable goal with his head, Wang Xiaodong clenched his right fist and looked up to the sky and roared.
Tottenham fans were also waving their arms crazily in the stands, waiting for the players to create a miracle.
"DONG hasn't scored yet!"
"I'm waiting for DONG to score!"
"DONG, one more, one more!"
The fans in the stands were shouting loudly, but little did they know that every save Wang Xiaodong made during the game was far more precious than scoring a goal.
Just as Wang Xiaodong looked up to the sky and roared, a drop of water fell on his eyelids.
"Huh? Is it raining?"
Looking at the gray sky, I don't know when the surrounding air became moist.
Soon, the rain formed a thin line on the court.
Although it is not big, it is enough to make the turf more slippery and hinder the players' vision to a certain extent.
In the 101st minute, Wayne Rooney, the hero of Manchester United's goal, was substituted and replaced by teenager Nani.
As a descendant of Ronaldo, Sir Alex Ferguson went to Portugal to buy Nani just to cultivate another player like Ronaldo.
Judging from his ability to replace Lu Xiaopang, this young Portuguese player is full of offensive threats.
In the 103rd minute, Wang Xiaodong's pass from the frontcourt was rarely interrupted.
As soon as Modric took two steps forward, he discovered that Wang Xiaodong's pass was actually coming from his previous position.
In desperation, he hurriedly braked, but the road was slippery in the rain and Modric almost fell to the ground.
After Ronaldo intercepted the ball, he quickly dribbled the ball forward, saw the opportunity and sent a through ball to the left front.
Tevez turned around and dunked on the left edge of Tottenham's penalty area, dodged the angle and then swung his leg directly to shoot.
Fortunately, the ball was shot right, and Robinson bent down and held the ball directly in his arms.
In the 107th minute, Tevez succeeded in stealing Modric in the frontcourt. He got rid of it continuously and then passed it to Nani on the right.
Nani carefully brought the ball to the penalty area, looked at his teammates in the penalty area, and directly launched a through ball.
However, the slippery turf caused both Woodgate and Giggs to waltz, sliding on the turf without anyone catching the ball.
Boateng and Hargreeves, who were at the back, saw this and wanted to step forward, but they still made the same mistake.
In the end, the ball was kicked out of the penalty area under the efforts of Boateng after he fell to the ground.
Giggs gave way, and Ronaldo followed up with a long shot.
However, the ball hit Boateng and bounced out of the penalty area.
When Nani tried to catch up again, he could no longer catch up.
"The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and it has begun to cause problems for both teams."
"If the road hadn't been slippery, Manchester United's attack just now might have really penetrated Tottenham's defense."
"Even Wang Xiaodong didn't get back in place just now."
"After running for more than a hundred minutes, even a cow should be tired."
When Sir Alex replaced Wayne Brown with Anderson and played the last substitution card, the game had reached the 121st minute.
"Danger! Manchester United is attacking from the left again this time!" He Wei's voice was hoarse and his voice was a little worried.
Nani, who came on as a substitute, kept circling his feet. After several consecutive bicycle rides, he shook Huddlestone away and dribbled the ball into the penalty area alone.
Fans throughout the Luzhniki Stadium had their hearts in their throats and their eyes wide open, for fear of missing the last detail.
Facing Malbranque who stepped forward to defend, Nani once again took a step towards the center. At this time, Robinson also moved from the left post to the middle.
Just when Malblanque was about to stretch out his foot to steal, Nani pushed with his right foot and pushed the ball to the left of his body.
Robinson also moved to his right, because Giggs appeared there and was already planning to receive the ball.
The moment Giggs stretched out his foot, Robinson swayed from side to side and adjusted his center of gravity in an instant.
Sure enough, Giggs didn't stop the ball, but sent a through ball directly.
Nani, who was inserted from the side, pushed the ball straight into the near corner and pushed the ball towards the goal.
Bang!
Boom!
After two different collisions sounded in front of Tottenham's goal, the ball that hit Robinson's finger hit the goal post again.
When the players looked up to look for the ball, they found it spinning on the goal line.
Whoosh!
boom!
In the camera, Wang Xiaodong and Ronaldo rush to the door at the same time.
Their eyes were blood red and they refused to give in to each other.
"Cristiano!"
"DONG!"
Fans from both sides held their breath, waiting for God's judgment.
"Crack!"
At this moment, a bolt of lightning struck.
Cristiano Ronaldo gritted his teeth as he rushed to the ball, leaped high and jumped over Wang Xiaodong's legs.
The next second, Wang Xiaodong's right leg swept out and kicked the ball directly out of the penalty area.
“Beep, beep!!!!”
After three whistles, the referee blew the whistle that ended overtime.
After landing, Ronaldo pinched his waist, took a deep breath, bent down and pulled Wang Xiaodong up from the ground.
"I didn't expect you to be so cruel!"
Looking at the trembling door frame, Ronaldo felt a little scared.
