Chapter 292 Attack
With Sun Qi's goal, Manchester United broke the deadlock and took a lead over Sporting Lisbon at home.

Seeing Sun Qi's goal, the Manchester United fans who came from afar stood up excitedly, cheering and celebrating loudly.

Sun Qi has never let them down.

Fortunately, Giggs' injury was not serious. After examination and treatment, he recovered and was able to return to the field to continue the game soon.

In this regard, the fans of both sides also gave Giggs the warmest applause.

None of them want excessive violence on the court, causing players to be injured.

Fortunately, Ryan Giggs is fine.

It was also because of Sun Qi's direct free kick to score the goal, which countered the big defense of the Sporting Lisbon players just now, which made the Sporting Lisbon team scruples when defending in the backcourt, and the movements of the players on both sides were restrained a lot.

In the 6th minute, Sporting Lisbon launched an offensive.

Miguel Veloso dribbled from the back and combined with João Moutinho in a two-for-one, past Rooney.

João Moutinho then deflected the ball down the right-hand side of the pitch to Leandro Romagnoli.

Steadily stopping the long pass, Leandro Romagnoli passed the ball to Ronnie who put in an assist from the wing before Giggs returned.

Ronnie pushed forward with the ball, and when Gary Neville was attracted to defend, Ronnie then passed the ball to Leandro Romagnoli, who quickly inserted in front.

Having the ball again, Leandro Romagnoli dribbled inside and inserted it into the United penalty area.

Leandro Romagnoli forced his way in as Vidic stepped forward to block.

During the flight, the ball touched the foot of Rio Ferdinand, who was defending behind, deflected, and hung towards Manchester United's goal.

Fortunately, Manchester United's goalkeeper Van der Sar reacted very quickly and flew towards the ball quickly. Before the ball flew into the goal, he lifted the ball out of the crossbar and hit the baseline.

The goal was not scored, and Leandro Romagnoli felt a little regretful.

It is rare to have such a good opportunity, if you miss it, you may not have it again.

The Manchester United players secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Corner chance, taken by Leandro Romagnoli.

After looking at the situation in the Manchester United penalty area, Leandro Romagnoli passed the ball to the back of the penalty area.

There, central defender Anderson Polgar and Vidic competed for the landing point. They did not have an advantage in height and strength, but they couldn't fight Vidic.

Outside Manchester United's penalty area, Giggs stopped the ball a little too much, was snatched by Joao Moutinho, and kicked the goal.

However, Joao Moutinho's shot was a bit on the right track, right in the arms of goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar, who was easily confiscated by him.

Hugging the ball, Van der Sar first observed the surrounding situation, and after confirming that it was safe, he ran forward holding the ball and drove towards the frontcourt with his big feet.

At this time, many Sporting Lisbon players participated in this corner attack and have not yet returned.

Manchester United got a chance to counterattack quickly.

Van der Sar kicked his feet this time, looking for Ronaldo on the right front.

Seeing the ball, Ronaldo leaned on Ronnie, relying on his strong body and stronger jumping ability, overwhelmed Ronnie, grabbed the ball, and gave the ball to Rooney who followed up in the middle.

Rooney did not stop the ball, but directly picked up Ronaldo's pass, picked up the top of Abel's head who was being pulled by the defender behind him, and turned around, forcibly getting rid of Abel's entanglement, throwing away the opponent, and chasing the ball.

Rooney's physical fitness is excellent, and when he starts up, he is like a small tank, which is really difficult to stop.

Abel obviously didn't expect that Rooney would directly pick the ball and pass the ball, and he fell behind defensively.

Although he reached out to pull Rooney and grabbed the hem of Rooney's jersey, Rooney broke free.

After getting the ball, Rooney slammed the ball forward, and then accelerated to chase the ball. Together, we opened up the distance with Abel and got a chance for a single shot.

However, when Rooney was waving the ball vigorously, the goalkeeper of Sporting Lisbon, Vladimir Stojkovic, had already abandoned the goal and ran towards the ball desperately.

The distance closed, and Vladimir Stojkovic immediately fell to the ground to block it.

Seeing this, although Rooney also rushed to the position and wanted to get rid of the ball again, he failed.

Vladimir Stojkovic, who is tall and tall, crossed over strongly, like a large obstacle, blocking the space for Rooney to break through with the ball.

Moreover, at the moment Rooney had just waded the ball, Vladimir Stojkovic's foot had already stretched over and successfully blocked the ball.

In this fight, Vladimir Stojkovic was even better, Huo De went out, and finally blocked the ball, destroying Rooney's one-handed chance.

Although Rooney's ball was broken, it's just that Rooney, Ronaldo, and Scholes are not far away from him, and they are rushing towards the ball together.

Knowing that he could not protect the ball this time, goalkeeper Vladimir Stojkovic made a decisive decision, quickly kicked the ball out of the sideline, got up quickly, and quickly returned to the penalty area to prepare for defense.

At this time, the defensive players of the Sporting Lisbon team had returned to the defense, and Vladimir Stojkovic was relieved.

With the chance of a sideline ball, Sun Qi moved flexibly, swayed out of space, and received a pass from Evra.

After turning around and avoiding the pressure of Miguel Veloso, Sun Qi crossed the ball to Scholes not far away.

Scholes flicks the ball forward for a long shot.

But at this critical moment, Leandro Romagnoli, who was fighting back, rushed in a daze, ran directly towards Scholes, and knocked Scholes to the ground.

foul!

Manchester United won a free kick in a good position in front of the penalty area.

Fortunately, Scholes was not injured.

This time the free kick was taken by Ronaldo.

Because Sun Qi just scored a wonderful free kick, Ronaldo was under a lot of pressure.

This is an opportunity to prove himself, and Ronaldo hopes to grasp it.

Taking a deep breath, looking at the goalkeeper of Sporting Lisbon and the defensive wall, Ronaldo put the ball in place, and stepped back step by step, measuring his footsteps.

After opening the distance, Ronaldo stood there with his hips crossed, legs apart, and looked at the wall seriously.

When the referee Gonzalez blew the whistle in his mouth, Ronaldo bent over, bent his knees, started to start, ran up, and quickly increased his speed.
