Chapter 289

Relying on Yang Feng's five goals in 8 minutes, Manchester City successfully passed the test and joined Barcelona in the Champions League final.

The remaining two league games continued to be used by Pellegrini to train and maintain the condition of the main players. The result was one win and one loss, and ended the Premier League journey this season with 31 wins, 5 losses, 2 draws and 95 points.

At 6:20 local time on the 45th in Germany, the final of the 60th Champions Cup finally started at the Olympiastadion in Berlin.

Because of Yang Feng's outstanding performance, everyone ignored Manchester City's overall combat power, and the situation on the opposite side was similar. Barcelona's results were also attributed to the crazy outbreak of the MSN combination, so in the preheating of the media, this is a A final of the nature of the three British battles against Lu Bu.

"This is the second time for Manchester City and the eighth time for Barcelona to reach the Champions League final. Iniesta became the first Barcelona player to participate in the Champions League final four times. It is also the 4th time he represented Barcelona in an official game. Leigh tied for third place, second only to Xavi and Puyol, and as long as Messi scores a goal in this game, he will become the first player to score in the three Champions League finals."

A short cultural performance was held before the game, and then the ambassador of the finals and former German striker Riddle appeared with the Big Ear Cup, igniting the first climax of the audience.

Barcelona fans showed great confidence by spelling out the words "Mes que un club (not just a club)" in the stands, while Manchester City fans played a bit more, spelling out a blue moon in the stands In the center of the moon are two cups with big ears...

In the player channel, players from both sides have lined up and are ready to enter the field.

Yang Feng and Messi are at the bottom of their own team respectively.

Messi smiled at Yang Feng and said, "Will you touch the trophy in advance later?"

"Of course, why not?" Yang Feng said, "Do you want to try it? It's very exciting."

Of course, the excitement is not to touch the trophy in advance, but to challenge traditions and taboos.

"I really want to try it, but..."

Before Messi finished speaking, Neymar, who was chewing something in front of him, suddenly turned around and said, "But we don't need it."

"No need for anything?" Yang Feng said, "Magic oriental magic?"

The miraculous oriental magic is naturally what the western media said. Some people rumored that Yang Feng asked a Chinese feng shui magician to cast a spell. As long as he touched the trophy before the game, the final champion would definitely be his. This made many Barcelona fans believe it. The petition asked UEFA to prohibit Yang Feng from touching the trophy before the game, and some masters even volunteered, saying that they could break the spell, making it absurd.

It is precisely because of these off-court episodes that the attention of this game also broke the broadcast and ratings records of the Champions League final.

Neymar didn't know whether he was playing fast or really believed in this set, anyway, he looked serious, "Yes, we don't need magic, we only believe in our feet."

"..." Yang Feng put away his smiling face and said seriously, "I only believe in my feet, but what if my feet have magic power?"

These words seemed to hit the end of Neymar's sentence. This guy suddenly showed off his posamba dance steps, and said, "Oh, my feet also have magic power. Let's see which of us has more magic power."

Suarez, who was reminiscing with Silva, took a moment to take a look, exchanged glances with Silva, and twitched the corners of his mouth in unison.

Two childish ghosts.

Yang Feng clicked his tongue twice.

Comparing magic with the system, are you crazy?
In this game, he used the horse's sense of the ball and Denilson's dribbling.

In terms of practicality, the horse is naturally better, but when it comes to keywords such as fancy and magic, Denilson can be regarded as the best in the world.

The passionate Champions League theme song sounded, and players from both sides walked out of the player tunnel and entered the stadium from both sides of the Big Ears Cup placed on the sidelines.

Almost everyone was staring at Yang Feng, and even the players who had already walked past looked back intentionally or unintentionally.

Yang Feng did not disappoint everyone, he slapped the trophy heavily amidst the boos of Barcelona fans.

Manchester City fans stood up and cheered, while Barcelona fans cried and shouted.

"Haha, Yang Feng touched the trophy again before the game. I don't know if this ritual that belongs to him can continue to maintain its magic power. Let us wait and see..."

"The game has started, both sides have formed the strongest lineup, this will be the most peak matchup in today's football!
Barcelona played a 4-3-3 formation.

Goalkeeper: 1-Ter Stegen;
Defenders: 22-Alves, 3-Pique, 14- Mascherano, 18-Alba;
Midfielder: 4-Rakitic, 5-Busquets, 8-Iniesta (C);

Forwards: 10-Messi, 9-Suarez, 11-Neymar. "

"Man City 4-4-2.

Goalkeeper: 13-Oblak;

Defenders: 4-Zabaleta, 6-Van Dijk, 5-Kompani (C), 3-Kolarov;

Midfielder: 7-Kanter, 8-Kroos, 17-De Bruyne, 21-David Silva;
Forwards: 16-Aguero, 9-Yang Feng. "

Kompany beat Iniesta in coin guessing, Manchester City won the kick-off and took the initiative at the beginning of the game.

After Yang Feng passed the ball back to Cross, he went straight into the middle. Busquets entangled him immediately, but Yang Feng quickly got rid of it with speed.

Kroos and Kante made a two-goal pass over Suarez, who pounced on him, and then immediately came with a precise long pass from the backcourt.

Yang Feng turned sideways and volleyed directly without stopping the ball!

No one expected that Manchester City's attack would be so simple, even crude, but surprisingly powerful.

In order to avoid being shot into an anti-aircraft gun, Yang Feng deliberately pressed down on the shot this time and hit a half-high ball.

The angle is not tricky, but the speed of the ball is fast and the strength is fierce. There is still great hope. At least Ter Stegen failed to make a save in the first place, but Mascherano was the moment Yang Feng hit the goal. Recklessly, he stretched his foot to the side to stop him.

With a sound of "poof", the football hit the inside of Mascherano's left foot. Brother Ma was hit backwards, and the football bounced high.

Ter Stegen just abandoned the goal and hit the ball heavily with his head, and the football fell to Pique's feet.

Barcelona crisis lifted.

"Yang Feng, hit the goal!! Oops, almost... At the beginning of the game, Yang Feng hit the mountain and Manchester City almost made a fantastic start... Mascherano became the hero of Barcelona..."

After Pique stopped the ball, several people in the backcourt of Barcelona started a familiar back foot.

Yang Feng, Aguero, De Bruyne, and Silva stepped forward and pressed from a high position. The two sides chased each other in Barcelona's half. The scene seemed extremely intense, but the rhythm was actually under Barcelona's control.

The football was quickly passed back to Pique, who quickly kicked the ball to Alves who attacked from the wing.

Alves took a few steps forward, faced Silva who was pressing forward, and decisively passed to Messi who came to meet him in the middle.

Faced with Yang Feng's pressing, Messi also did not stick the ball, but immediately moved to the left.

Alba got rid of De Bruyne, touched the ball first, and knocked it to Neymar.

As soon as Neymar got the ball, Kroos rushed forward, but was quickly dizzy by the opponent's dazzling various touches.

I was about to give him a kick regardless, but Neymar suddenly passed the ball.

And it's a wonderful pass.

The football directly tore through Manchester City's defense and came to the feet of Iniesta who advanced forward.

Kolarov felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and hurriedly shoveled fiercely.

As if he had expected it long ago, Xiaobai flicked and buckled him, flashed him easily and freely, and then passed him with the outside of his instep.

Suarez ran quickly and was about to shoot a kick, but Van Dijk suddenly squeezed beside him, knocking him to the ground.

Suarez screamed exaggeratedly and rolled twice on the spot, but found that no one paid him any attention.

All kinds of exclamations suddenly came from the audience, followed by shouts and cheers.

"...Suarez didn't grab the first point, the football flew to the back of the goal, and Rakitic scored with his left foot!!"

"Just over three minutes into the game, Barcelona took the lead! In 203 seconds, this is the fourth fastest goal in the Champions League final!"

"A perfect fit, Barcelona scored after 16 passes.

Rakitic became the fifth Balkan and the second Croatian to score in the Champions League final.

Iniesta has 5 assists in the Champions League this season, becoming the first player to have assisted in 3 Champions League finals.

This is also Barcelona's 173rd goal in an official game this season. Xiaobai and Rakitic scored together for the first time. Barcelona's last goal without MSN's direct participation dates back to three months ago..."

It is not accurate to say that there is no MSN participation, because Messi’s midfield transfer played a big role, Neymar’s through pass also contributed a lot, and although Suarez failed to touch the ball, his forward penetration greatly contributed. Attracted Oblak's attention, allowing Rakitic behind to successfully pick up the leak.

Everyone in Manchester City was dumbfounded.

Including Yang Feng.

He looked at his back line.

Kante, Van Dijk, Kompany, Zabaleta, Kolarov...not so...

With this defensive lineup, it is a bit difficult for Barcelona to have zero seals this season, but if you want to say that they will break through immediately, that would be too nonsense.

"...This is football! You can never predict what will happen in the next second...The time to test Manchester City has come, they must calm down first..."

Pellegrini took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, then pressed his hands down, signaling the players not to panic, and then stretched out his hand and waved in the direction of the Barcelona goal, signaling to continue attacking without stopping.

Barcelona celebrated wildly, while the Manchester City generals quickly returned to their positions, waiting for the game to start.

The game continued, and Yang Feng tried to go through the barrier alone at the beginning. Unfortunately, Barcelona was well prepared.

Instead of being conservative because of their lead, Barcelona continued to put pressure on Manchester City at their own pace.

The experienced Iniesta took control of the overall situation and gave De Bruyne, who was still a little green on the opposite side, a vivid on-site education lesson.

"...Manchester City's two core midfielders were restricted by Alves and Alaba respectively, and the offense was not going well...Sure enough, Yang Feng retreated..."

Just as Yang Feng withdrew and was about to take over the team's baton, something happened again on the court.

Neymar made a straight pass, Messi moved forward smartly, and faced Van Dijk!

The audience suddenly fell silent, and even the air seemed to freeze at this moment.

Van Dijk stood between Messi and the goal, his expression quite calm.

Messi was unhurried, his shoulders sank, and he pretended to change direction, intending to shake the stupid big man opposite him.

Van Dijk was unmoved, still stubbornly standing in place, patiently waiting for the opportunity to steal.

But just when he was about to take the initiative to grab, Messi's ankle suddenly shook secretly.

The football is crossed to the front right of the goal.

Suarez and Kompany rushed towards the football together, but according to the gap between the two men, the ball will probably be stabbed into the empty goal by Suarez first.

The fans of Manchester City covered their mouths in disbelief, but couldn't help but exclaimed in the next second.

Just when Suarez was about to shoot, Oblak suddenly rushed over and threw himself at the football under his feet.

Suarez calmly flicked the ball sideways, and was about to change direction to pass Oblak. Unexpectedly, Oblak stretched out his left hand at the same time and scooped it lightly.

Suarez's left foot was hooked by Oblak and immediately fell to the ground.

Su Ya didn't yell, yell, or perform this time, just sitting on the ground, staring closely at the referee who was rushing towards him whistling, as if he would immediately pounce on and bite if the opponent's decision didn't satisfy him.

The referee was quite decisive and resolute, and raised a red card at Oblak...

Yang Feng did not rush to the referee with his teammates, hoping to persuade him to withdraw his life, but silently looked at Petr Cech and Casillas on his system interface, and an absurd premonition rose in his heart.

No way?no?can't you?
"Red dot package! In the 306th minute of the game, Manchester City's main goalkeeper was sent off and a penalty kick was awarded! To make matters worse..."

"Oblak tried his best. If he didn't foul, Suarez would shoot an empty goal. Manchester City had to adjust urgently. The coaching staff is negotiating urgently."

Substitute goalkeeper Pantilimon stood on the sidelines, but Pellegrini was unable to make a decision about who to replace with him. Finally, under the urging of the referee, he reluctantly replaced Sabaletta.

"Pellegrini made a surprising choice to replace a defender with a substitute goalkeeper, which was impossible because they were behind and had to respond offensively, but the replacement The next defender is quite a risky idea indeed..."

Pantilimon, who played in an emergency, failed to create a miracle. Neymar decisively and confidently scored a penalty kick into the lower left corner, and Barcelona took the lead again.

The game continued, Manchester City, who played one less player, did not show obvious weakness on the scene, but played vigorously on the offensive end.

Seeing that the first half was coming to an end, the coaching staff of both sides had gathered together to discuss the tactics for the second half of the game, but unexpectedly the situation on the court changed suddenly.

Yang Feng took the ball in the middle, and after a burst of dazzling consecutive breakthroughs, he brought the ball out of the encirclement abruptly and gave Aguero a nanny-style through ball.

A Kun cleverly played a contra-angle and scored the single-handed ball steadily.

"GOAL!!! Manchester City did not give up, but fought back resolutely! 2-1, the game still has suspense!"

Aguero rushed into the goal, held the ball out, gave Yang Feng a high five, and returned to the midfield to wait for the kick-off.

Barcelona kicked the ball out and played another wave of fast breaks, but as Neymar broke through with the ball and was destroyed by Kanter, the first half ended quickly.

During the intermission, the atmosphere in the locker room was quite depressing.

The coaching staff seemed to have a disagreement, and it was too late to make a decision on how to play in the second half. In the end, Pellegrini made the decision, replacing Kolarov with Demichelis, and continued to play three backs in the second half, but Van Dijk, Kompany and Demichelis are three pure central defenders.

This adjustment should have been made when Sabaletta was replaced, but Pellegrini was unable to make up his mind for a long time. Unexpectedly, the team seemed to be unaffected at all, so someone proposed to continue to keep the current situation. There are configurations, but Pellegrini is still worried, and finally made adjustments.

At the beginning of the second half, the Manchester City team, which saw hope, used their lives, and once let the fans see hope, but they did not expect to be hit again soon.

Substitute Pantilimon made a world-class save, blocking Messi's long-range shot over the crossbar with a single palm, and then fell in front of the goal and was unable to get up.

Yang Feng's heart skipped a beat.

Premonition test...

A strange atmosphere hangs over everyone in Manchester City.

Pellegrini put his hands in his hair, looked at Pantilimon who was being carried off on a stretcher in disbelief, and felt the malice of fate.

He looked back at the bench.

Xavi Alonso, Milner, Dzeko, Richards, Clichy...

There are midfielders, forwards and defenders, but no goalkeeper.

He asked stupidly, "Which of you will guard the gate?"

Substitute players, you look at me, I look at you, no one dares to say anything.

Just when his headache was about to burst, the assistant coach next to him stretched out his hand and stabbed him.

Looking back, I happened to see Yang Feng walking over.

His little heart twitched violently.

Isn't there something wrong with this master?
Yang Feng came over and said, "I'll guard the gate."

Pellegrini and the assistant coach looked at each other, and finally moved their lips, "Yang, don't make trouble..."

Yang Feng said: "You can ask Dzeke."

Dzeko seemed to have just remembered something, and said anxiously: "Yes, yes, Yang will keep the goal, and he is not bad."

"Huh?" Everyone looked at him like an alien, and then looked at Yang Feng.

Will he keep the goal?When did this happen?
Yang Feng patted Pellegrini on the shoulder and said nothing, but his expression said it all.

Being able to keep the goal is of course a matter after playing Bayern.

The two goalkeepers were stuck behind him, so he naturally tried to find the forwards in the team. Dzeko and Aguero thought he was joking at first, but they didn't expect to find that Yang Feng's goalkeeping movements were quite regular. When I got serious, I realized that this guy seemed to be really professional. I have to admit that some people are born to prevent others from living.

Pellegrini still couldn't make up his mind, but under Yang Feng's firm gaze, he finally could only nod with difficulty.

Dzeko played and replaced the injured Pantilimon, while Yang Feng put on his gloves and stood in front of the goal.

Everyone was stunned.

"What happened? Yang Feng is guarding the goal?! Is Pellegrini crazy?"

"This... sorry, I don't understand, who can tell me what happened? Is Manchester City giving up the game tactfully? This is their way of fighting against bad luck? Another way of surrendering?"

Not to mention that the fans and commentators couldn't understand it, the players on both sides also couldn't understand it. Even the referee looked strangely at Yang Feng who was standing in front of the goal several times.

Neymar blinked several times to make sure he was right.

Believe it or not, Yang Feng did become a goalkeeper.

The game continues.

Barcelona corner.

When the football flew to the goal, Yang Feng immediately showed the excellent qualities of a professional goalkeeper and flicked the ball out quite standardly.

City hit a swift counter-attack and David Silva dribbled the ball wide and was about to cut inside but was tripped by Alves.

The referee decisively whistled for a foul, and Manchester City got a direct free kick in an average position.

Everyone looked at Yang Feng.

Yang Feng trotted to the foul spot the moment the whistle sounded, and stood in front of the penalty spot without hesitation.

Several defenders looked at each other and stood in front of their own goal tacitly.
