Guardiola didn't know what to do for a while, so he could only carry it on and pray for God's blessing.
Guardiola: "Piqué, no matter what method you use, you can't let Zhang Qi jump!"
He can only use the death command to stop Zhang Kuang.
The whole team of Barcelona was extremely nervous, but Messi outside the penalty area had a gloomy look on his face. His limelight was completely covered up. Whether it was goals, speed, teammate cooperation, etc., in these ten minutes, Zhang Kuang completely crushed him.
Is this Zhang Kuang really so strong? This?
Just when Messi was in a daze, Manchester United's corner kick was taken. Piqué tightly hugged Zhang Kuang's arm to prevent him from jumping, but another person suddenly jumped up from the crowd, Rooney. He jumped high, then looked back at the moon, and slammed the ball into the lower left corner of the goal.
Just when Rooney was about to celebrate, Valdés fished the ball out with one hand, and then Rooney looked at the referee. The referee shook his head to indicate that the ball had not been scored.
Rooney was angry. The ball obviously went in, but the referee said it didn't.
He rushed to the referee and yelled, "It's in, it's in, the ball is in, do you want to ask the linesman first or watch the replay?"
Referee: "Don't question my decision. I said the ball didn't go in, so it didn't go in. There's no need to ask others or watch replays."
Rooney: "Fart, you are covering up. We have already entered. Are you blind? Or did you take the money?"
Rooney made an gesture of counting money toward the referee, and then the referee became angry and started to take out cards.
At this time Zhang Kuang rushed over quickly and held down the referee's hand.
"Sir, this ball is inherently controversial. It's fine that your penalty is controversial. Is it possible that you have to issue a card to punish it? I'm afraid that's not good, right?"
Referee: "Let go. It's my business to decide the penalty. I'm the referee..."
Then the goal was replayed on the big screen in the stadium. After replaying it from various angles, it was determined that the ball had crossed the goal line as a whole, and the goal was valid.
Manchester United's head coach Ferguson rushed to the fourth official and protested loudly, while the fans in the audience were also shouting 'Black whistle, black whistle!'
Martin: "Well, this ball is definitely effective, but everyone knows that Barcelona's 'good luck' has come again. They often encounter such 'good luck', as if the referee can always bring them 'good luck'."
Neville: "This is the UEFA Champions League finals. How could such a controversy arise?"
Martin: "Oh, Manchester United 1:0 still has the possibility to tie or even overtake. If Manchester United 2:0, the difficulty will be extraordinary."
"..."
Everyone was protesting, but the referee Victor Kassai from Hungary seemed determined to invalidate the goal and give Rooney a card.
Zhang Kuang: "Sir, if you really want to give the card, what benefits can you get? You must know that you gave the card and Rooney was sent off. Manchester United lost because of this. Not only Manchester United fans will vent their anger on you, just think about what Glazer Family will do. Sir, don't you think about the safety of your family? How much do you charge for a penalty? Do you need to work so hard for them?"
Victor Kassai: "You, you, don't slander..."
Zhang Kuang: "Sir, I am here to save you. Do you think big chaebols like them would care about a referee from a small Eastern Europe country accidentally dying somewhere? Do you want your daughter to be sold to the dark web and humiliated to death? Sir, I advise you not to do anything stupid."
In the end, under the huge pressure of everyone in the audience, Victor Kassai did not play the card to Rooney, but the goal just now was still invalidated.
Then the whole world was calling "black whistle", and Manchester United's boss, Malcolm Glazer, was very angry and immediately ordered Manchester United CEO David·Gill around him.
"David, protest to UEFA, and also check this referee, there is still someone who dares to blatantly blackmail us Manchester United? He is so comfortable with the money?"
David·Gill: "Yes, boss, I'll check right away."
At this moment, Glazer's phone rang. After he picked up the phone, he didn't speak. Then when he finished speaking, Glazer said, 'There will be no next time.'
Then he hung up the phone and said to David·Gill, "Forget it, there is no need to check."
David·Gill smiled bitterly. He was also helpless. Everyone thought that the five major Europe leagues and UEFA Champions League were fair and exciting. In fact, these were the results of control from above.
What they have to control is that the game cannot get out of control, because if it gets out of control, the betting market will collapse, and everyone will be affected by that time.
Because in this betting market, almost all the clubs that are frequent guests of UEFA Champions League have shares, otherwise who would listen to your instructions?
There must be someone who doesn't want the UEFA Champions League final to lose its suspense prematurely, or who doesn't want the betting market to collapse.
Sports are never just sports, they are just a means for capitalists to make money.
Of course, fans don't know this, so what if they do? Will they stop watching football from now on?
No.
Those who should watch football will still watch football!
The game continued, and Guardiola took a long breath. Fortunately, God blessed Barcelona. Otherwise, it would have been 2:0, and it would have been even worse.
Even so, the whole audience was still shouting 'black whistle, black whistle', but the Barcelona players and referees ignored it.
Unfair? Black whistle?
So what?
Are there less injustices and black whistles in this world?
People will forget it soon, and even if they can't forget it, they will be persuaded by the extremely bad reason of 'misjudgment is part of the game'.
In the 18th minute, the Manchester United players were still angry and thought it was unfair. After Barcelona made continuous passes and penetrations in the midfield, Busquets instigated, Xavi divided the sides, and Pedro pushed and scored from the penalty area.
1:1
The Barcelona players were extremely excited, and the Manchester United players were gnashing their teeth. Barcelona took advantage of the Manchester United players' anger after being unfairly penalized, and lost concentration to score the goal.
Ferguson ran to the sidelines. "You guys, focus on me, don't be distracted by other things, Carrick, you three are sure of the midfield, how can you let Xavi shoot the ball forward? What are you doing?"
Ferguson spat angrily.
He Wei: "Manchester United just suffered a misjudgment, which caused the players to be distracted. Barcelona took advantage of this distraction to score the equalizer.
Manchester United's players should wake up and not let misjudgments influence their emotions, thereby losing a good start advantage..."
He Wei is cheering for Manchester United, but unfortunately the Manchester United players on the field can't hear it.
There was a huge quarrel on the Internet:
"A great referee should kill such damn Zhang Kuang and make him arrogant, haha...Manchester United was equalized, right?"
"Fucking Barcelona relied on the help of the referee to equalize the score. What is there to be proud of?"
"'Misjudgment is part of the game', haven't you heard of it? What's wrong with misjudgment? Should Manchester United keep the goal if it is misjudged? If they don't concentrate on themselves, what does it matter to outsiders?"
"Fuck, Barcelona fans, Messi fans are so damn... I can't stand it anymore, it's really disgusting!"
"You rubbish, how could the great Barcelona and the great Messi be liked by you rubbish?"
"Tsk, tsk, people are so shameless. Really, I really can't figure out what kind of mentality is there for fans who like this team and this player? In front of everyone, they black whistled and then equalized the score, and they were so confident. What kind of mentality is this? Fuck, I don't understand, really."
"What do you know? You don't understand the art of football at all. You only know Zhang Kuang beast-like collisions. That is barbarism. Real civilization is Barcelona like this, Messi like this."
"Ugh..."
--
The game is still going on. Zhang Kuang cheers up the players and tells them not to be depressed and lose their fighting spirit just because of one penalty, and then the championship will be handed over to them.
Under the encouragement of Zhang Kuang and the command from the sidelines of Ferguson, the players of Manchester United became serious again.
Barcelona continued to control the ball and move it back and forth. They also guarded against Manchester United's quick counterattack, so they did not dare to lose the ball. They could only move it back and forth, killing time like this until the 34th minute.
Barcelona is still controlling the rhythm of the game. The ball is always at their feet and they are precisely controlled near the center circle.
Just when Mascherano passed the ball to Iniesta again, Scholes was less than twenty centimeters away from him. Scholes suddenly made a sliding tackle, which shocked Iniesta, and then the ball was snatched away by Scholes.
The ball rolled towards Evra. Evra looked at the ball and before Villa could grab it, he directly passed the ball forward with his big foot. Zhang Kuang had already started.
Guardiola was shocked. "Quick, don't let Zhang get the ball, stop him..."
Abidal ran desperately towards Zhang Kuang, Piqué also ran from the other side towards the possible path forward for Zhang Kuang, and Mascherano cooperated with Abidal to intercept Zhang Kuang.
When the ball flew over, Mascherano was almost able to block Zhang Kuang, but Zhang Kuang didn't wait for the ball to hit the ground. He directly hit the ball with his head and continued to send the ball forward. Then he turned around and passed Mascherano.
He Wei: "Beautiful, Zhang Kuang's header went over the top. Mascherano didn't catch Zhang Kuang. It was less than ten meters away from the penalty area line. There was only Piqué in front... Piqué made a sliding tackle. He was heading towards Zhang Kuang's ankle...
Zhang Kuang, Zhang Kuang was shoveled down, he was injured, he was holding his ankle and screaming... What's going on, why is Piqué also holding his ankle... Ah, Piqué's foot is broken... This... this picture should be called Marseille..."
Beep!
The referee ran over and checked the injuries of the two men respectively, and then he signaled to the team doctor off the field to enter the field.
Martin: "Both two of them are injured? Piqué is wearing shoe spikes and shoveling Zhang Kuang. Why is Piqué still covering his feet?"
Neville: "La Masia Camp Film and Television Academy knows everything!"
Martin: "Ahem, as commentators we can't say such things. Look, oops, it's really true. Piqué's ankle was broken. He was carried off and the ambulance came. Now, Zhang Kuang stood up. His foot was bleeding, and the team doctor was trying to stop the bleeding."
Neville: "Didn't you notice that the referee didn't give Piqué a card? Piqué shoveled Zhang Kuang with his spikes on, but didn't even give him a card. Isn't this referee too obviously protective?"
Martin: "Wow, it's true. Isn't this too blatant? You're not even pretending, are you? UEFA Don't even want to lose your face? Fans all over the world are watching."
He Wei: "What's the situation? Why did the referee only give a free kick, and where was the card? The guy who shoveled the spikes didn't even give him a card?"
Xu Yang: "Barcelona can still be substituted? No. 5 Puyol is replaced by No. 3 Piqué on the sidelines? The referee even signaled Puyol to come on?"
At this time, the Manchester United players gathered around and put pressure on the referee. This favoritism was so obvious that the referee had no choice but to take out a yellow card and record it on the record.
Vidić: "It's just a yellow card? He showed his spikes and went towards the useless person, but it's just a yellow card? This is a red card behavior, this is a red card. Are you really going all out for this penalty? Are you not caring about anything?"
Victor Kassai was so angry that his face turned red, "Okay, let's all be over. I am the referee, and whatever I say is what it is. If you have any objections, you can go to UEFA to complain to me, and I will give UEFA an explanation."
Vidić: "Very good, very good, Mr. Referee, I wish you good luck!"
Referee: "Okay, go and take your free kick."
Vidić: "You brought in Barcelona's substitution so quickly. Our player Zhang Kuang hasn't come on the field yet. He is waving. He is the penalty kicker. Is it possible that you let us take the free kick without the penalty kicker?"
The referee glared at Vidić coldly, and then waved to Zhang Kuang.
Zhang Kuang returned to the field after the bleeding was stopped. Huge cheers erupted from the scene. When Zhang Kuang walked in front of the referee, he smiled and nodded at him, and then gave him a thumbs up.
Referee: "What do you mean by this gesture?"
Zhang Kuang: "How about praising your professional penalty? I admire your penalty and I am not allowed to praise you? Is there such a rule?"
The referee glared coldly at Zhang Kuang: "Go and shoot the free throw quickly, don't waste time."
So many things happened on the field, and the discussion on the Internet has been shaking up from the beginning.
"As a Barcelona fan, I feel so ashamed. Really, I even blushed. Isn't this too biased? Really, if you do it so blatantly, you don't care about the fans' opinions?"
"Some people are anxious and no longer care about any means."
"Manchester United is rubbish. If you can't play, you always blame the referee. He is a top international referee. He has judged hundreds of top games and the referee's rating is top-notch. Manchester United fans are really funny. If you can't play, you can't play. Why should you blame the referee? He has the ability to win!"
"Yes, Manchester United is rubbish, Zhang Kuang is rubbish, I suspect that Piqué's broken foot was intentional by Zhang Kuang. He has a criminal record and he has trampled on the feet of several people.
Zhang Kuang is committing murder. Piqué is so pitiful. He just wants to cut off his feet. Why should Zhang Kuang take revenge? To step on Piqué's feet? Zhang Kuang is an executioner. He is committing murder!"
"Holy shit, are these people crazy? Look, look, what does this say? 'Piqué just wants to cut off Zhang Kuang's feet, why should Zhang Kuang take revenge'? Damn it, am I still a human on earth? What logic is this? Damn it, who can tell me what logic is this? How can people be so shameless?"
"'Piqué just wants to break Zhang Kuang's feet. Why should Zhang Kuang take revenge?'? I also want to know what the logic is. Piqué wants to break Zhang Kuang's feet. Zhang Kuang can't retaliate?
No, this is obviously a trap, damn, I almost fell for you. This is to make everyone admit that Piqué's broken foot is Zhang Kuang's revenge, so that Piqué can be exonerated is half guilty. At least Piqué seems less evil because he is evil. But if you say this, doesn't it mean that Zhang Kuang is equally evil?
So, no one should say who is more moral among the two villains? Damn, the intentions of these people are so sinister. It is obviously organized and planned, and it is a propaganda slogan that has been thought up a long time ago."
"Oh my god, look at it, these people show up in batches, all promoting the idea that 'Piqué is an evil person, but Zhang Kuang is also an evil person'. These people's intentions are too sinister."
"Damn it, for the sake of a UEFA Champions League champion, really, all means were used? As for it? Fairness? Where is the competitive spirit? Just being stepped on the ground?"
"..."
There was a commotion online. At the game, Zhang Kuang was standing in front of a free kick. The free kick was about 28 meters away from the goal. Zhang Kuang stood about one and a half meters away from the ball with his hands on his hips, exactly one and a half steps away from the ball.
With his eyes fixed on the goal, the camera gave him a big close-up.
Beep!
After the referee blew the whistle, Zhang Kuang took a strong step with his left foot and kicked the ball with the outside instep of his right foot towards the lower left corner of the ball.
With a 'bang' sound, the ball almost flew out with a very small spin. The height of the ball was not very high, and the ball flew erratically. Just when it was about to hit the crowd, the ball suddenly turned around, turning from the left side of the wall and bypassing the crowd, and then the ball quickly ran towards the lower left corner of the goal.
Martin: "S ball, this is an S ball with the outside of the instep. The path of the ball will be extremely erratic... GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! In, in, in, Zhang Kuang scored an S-shaped set kick. Barcelona's goalkeeper Valdés almost pounced on it, but the ball rolled completely into the goal.
2:1, Manchester United took the lead again, Zhang Kuang, Zhang Kuang scored twice in the UEFA Champions League final, super Zhang, so awesome, so awesome..."
He Wei: "It's in, it's in, it's in, Zhang Kuang scored twice, whistled, stepped on the green, and swept the corner with the instep of his outside foot. The flying catkins swirled slightly in the air, and suddenly turned and arced to avoid the crowd. The human wall blocked the road and it was difficult to cover, and the air flow turned around and escaped. The goalkeeper was frozen and failed to save, and the low-angle meteor broke through the gate."
Xu Yang: "This kick is so beautiful and erratic. It reminds me of another free kick master Ronaldinho. His S-shaped free kick is exactly the same as the one played by Zhang Kuang!"
He Wei: "Yes, I didn't expect Zhang Kuang to kick the free kick to such a height in such a short period of time. Come on, let's look back at this free kick.
The whistle sounds! Zhang Kuang takes a run-up, strides out with his left foot for support, and accurately sweeps the outside instep of his right foot towards the lower left corner of the ball!
There was a muffled bang, the ball spun extremely weakly, flew erratically, and was not very high. It was about to hit the Barcelona wall!
Suddenly, the ball changed direction strangely and drew an arc to the left, perfectly bypassing the entire defensive barrier!
The speed suddenly increased and he went straight into the lower left corner of the goal! Valdés's center of gravity was completely misjudged, and his whole body was stuck in place. In the end, he reluctantly made a diving action, but there was no way to save it!
An unsolvable and erratic world wave, no exaggerated side spin, just relying on the change of airflow to deceive all defenders and goalkeepers. This is a wonderful set piece belonging to Zhang Kuang!"
After Zhang Kuang scored, he also performed a long-distance slide and knelt down in excitement, then pumped his fists and roared, and the fans in the audience screamed excitedly.
The Manchester United players all ran over to celebrate. The Manchester United players on the bench all hugged each other excitedly to celebrate. Ferguson and Phelan had a big hug, and they were very happy.
And Guardiola scratched his bald head and had a terrible headache!
