In one of Man City's attacks, Su Dong drifted out to the left side of the front line again. After receiving Marcelo's pass, he tried to break through on the left, but Ferdinand had tracked back and blocked him.
With no other choice, Su Dong stopped sharply to shield the ball, then passed it back to Marcelo.
Marcelo played it across to Busquets, and the team began building up again.
After receiving the ball, David Silva combined with Toni Kroos on a one-two, and the Spanish midfielder carried the ball forward.
Di Maria suddenly made a direct run into the left side of the penalty area, dragging Carrick away and drawing the defenders' attention.
Su Dong, meanwhile, suddenly ran from the left wing toward the center along the edge of the penalty area, cutting perfectly into the space in front of Manchester United's box.
David Silva understood immediately and passed the ball to Su Dong's feet.
Ferdinand abandoned Di Maria at once and chose to close down Su Dong. However, Su Dong did not stop. Instead, he pushed David Silva's pass toward the center, then suddenly accelerated and burst through Ferdinand's defense.
Having just broken through Ferdinand's defensive zone, Su Dong quickly struck a powerful long-range shot with his right foot.
Gasps erupted from the Manchester United fans throughout Wembley Stadium, mixed with the dull thud of the ball.
The ball shot out like lightning from the left side of the edge of the penalty area, flying toward the bottom-right corner of the goal.
Van der Sar had been prepared this time. He immediately launched himself sideways, and the tall, long-legged Dutch goalkeeper was confident he could keep the ball out. But he never expected Su Dong's shot to bounce after landing inside the six-yard box, accelerating even more.
