I can only say that Glazer brothers have beautiful thoughts, but the reality is very skinny. Of course, these are things for later.

The game continues!

In the 70th minute, a disharmonious scene appeared again in the Allianz Arena stands.

A Bayern Munich fan in the South Stand threw a lighter into the stadium, and it landed near the Manchester United fan area. It seemed that the Bayern Munich fans' emotions were on the verge of exploding and they could no longer contain themselves.

Referee Rizzoli once again paused the game and asked security personnel to clear the field. The fourth official walked to the sidelines and broadcast in German and English to warn fans not to throw debris.

Martin said in the studio, "Throwing debris again. Bayern Munich fans are a little excited today. It shouldn't be. In the past, Bayern Munich fans have never thrown anything at home. It's not like Bayern Munich has never lost at home."

Neville: "Yes, maybe the meaning is different this time. After all, it is UEFA Champions League, and it is at home. They extremely hope to win the championship at home."

In the 73rd minute, Hernández was replaced and replaced by Anderson. Zhang Kuang was pushed to the center position and Ashley Young was pushed to the left.

Martin: "Hernández was replaced and Ferguson changed the formation. Although this formation still seems to maintain the 433 formation, it actually focuses more on defense because Ashley Young has always been used as a midfielder."

Neville: "Yes, most people can see that this is a tactical adjustment. It is 4:2. We must put stability first and not let the duck fly."

He Wei: "Ferguson replaced Hernández with Anderson. This is a tactical adjustment, from offense to defense. Director Zhang, what do you think of this adjustment?"

Zhang Lu: "Hey, it's very timely. There are only twenty minutes left. With a two-goal lead, stability must be the priority. Ferguson's substitution is very correct. In fact, Ashley Young's wing attack is not bad. It not only retains the Trident's offensive system, but also strengthens the defensive strength of the midfield."

In the 75th minute, Zhang Kuang almost scored again. Because Bayern Munich pressed too high when attacking, the back line was almost pressed to the center circle, while Zhang Kuang kept pressing on the edge of the back line.

After Bayern Munich's attack failed, the ball came to the feet of Evans. Evans passed the ball directly from the backcourt. Zhang Kuang started instantly. Zhang Kuang's starting speed was so fast. Boateng and Contento couldn't catch Zhang Kuang.

The whole audience exclaimed, Zhang Kuang had formed a single goal, but Neuer, who always likes to go out to intercept, did not step forward to intercept, but ran to the goal line immediately because he knew Zhang Kuang Pendulum Dribble is very powerful. He is not sure whether he can beat Pendulum Dribble of Zhang Kuang, so he retreats to the goal line and does not give Zhang Kuang a chance to beat him and hit the empty goal.

Zhang Kuang had no choice but to take a big volley while dribbling the ball to the penalty spot. The angle was very tricky, in the upper left corner, but Neuer was very focused and flew to save the ball. He actually saved the ball.

After throwing himself out, Neuer excitedly rushed to Zhang Kuang and roared repeatedly, but Zhang Kuang pushed Neuer away depressedly!

Martin: "Wow, this is the save of the century. It's amazing. It's amazing. The angle of Zhang Kuang's ball is very tricky, the force is very strong, and the speed is extremely fast. It's almost impossible to save such a ball, but Neuer did it. He really did it..."

Neville: "Indeed, anyone who saves such a difficult shot will be excited, but he was so excited that he almost got stuck on Zhang Kuang's face and roared, and his saliva almost sprayed all over Zhang Kuang's face..."

He Wei: "Ah, Zhang Kuang's goal was saved. Neuer's level is really high. I can't say that he is the number one goalkeeper in the world at the moment, but he will definitely have a place among the top two goalkeepers of the younger generation."

Zhang Lu: "I just have a bad temper, haha, I almost sprayed Zhang Kuang's face with saliva."

"..."

Next, Manchester United's corner kick failed. Ashley Young's corner kick missed the penalty and flew directly out of the baseline. Zhang Kuang tried to jump up but couldn't reach it. It was really high and floating.

In the 81st minute, Ashley Young ran so fast on the left, giving people the illusion that he was no worse than Zhang Kuang, but he didn't know how to deal with it after he broke through to the penalty area on the left. He wanted to pass to Zhang Kuang, but found that the passing line was gone, so he had to pass it to Rooney on the right, and Rooney pushed and shot...

Neuer made a direct dive to hold the ball under him, and this perfect attack ended just like that.

Martin: "GO--! Ah, what a pity, Rooney's push! Ashley Young's pass! Rooney's non-stop push, this ball is already perfect, but it's a pity that Neuer's save is even better."

Neville: "Yes, this is quite a pity, but it doesn't matter. If you score, you will maintain the victory. If you don't score, there will be no loss."

The whole audience was very sorry for Rooney's goal, but it was okay. Anyway, the score was 4:2, and Manchester United's victory would hardly be a surprise.

In the 84th minute, Ashley Young broke through with the ball from the wing, and Boateng tackled him from behind. Rizzoli blew the whistle and showed a yellow card.

Martin: "Boateng's yellow card, this tackle was too big. Boateng was very miserable by Zhang Kuang and Ashley Young today. He was a little impatient. This yellow card is very detrimental to him."

Neville: "It doesn't matter whether there is a profit or not. Including the stoppage time, it will not exceed 15 minutes. It is difficult to score three goals. It is also difficult to score two goals. It cannot change the outcome."

Martin: "Yes, there is no chance. Manchester United has basically sealed the victory. After Zhang Kuang became the forward, Bayern Munich's defense was even more suppressed. Their defense The line didn't dare to press forward at all. Once it did, it would give Zhang Kuang a chance, because Zhang Kuang's anti-offside was so powerful. If Zhang Kuang succeeded in anti-offside, their defenders wouldn't even be able to catch up."

Neville: "Yes, Zhang Kuang's single shot proved this point before. Zhang Kuang's anti-offside threat is really great. This is the role of Zhang Kuang pushing to the forward position. It is really useful."

"..."

In the 84th minute, Bayern Munich made a substitution, Oliech replaced Müller, and Heynckes strengthened the attack.

In the 85th minute, Bayern Munich almost got a goal back. Robben broke through from the right and made a pass. Gómez headed the ball from the edge of the small penalty area. De Gea bravely lifted the ball over the crossbar.

Martin: "De Gea! World-class save! Robben's cross was so accurate. Gómez's header was almost certain to go in, but De Gea lifted the ball out with his fingertips! This is the value of a top goalkeeper."

Neville: "Today both goalkeepers were excellent, but the highlight performance that everyone saw was Neuer. The main reason is that today Manchester United threatened the ball more and Neuer had more opportunities to perform."

In the 88th minute, Manchester United made a substitution, and Smalling replaced Rafael. This was a matchup substitution to continue to strengthen defense.

In the 89th minute, Robben took a free kick from the top of the penalty area, and De Gea punched out with both fists.

4 minutes of added time.

When the fourth official raised the stoppage time card, all Manchester United fans were already cheering to celebrate the victory. Two goals in four minutes?

It's too difficult.

Therefore, the probability of Manchester United winning has reached 99.99%, which is worthy of celebration by the fans.

Martin: "Gary, do you think there will be a miracle in the last four minutes?"

Neville: "How can miracles happen so easily? Besides, there is no talent in the Bayern Munich team to create miracles. Robben, Gómez, and Ribéry are not good at creating miracles.

People who are really good at creating miracles are people like Drogba, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Zhang Kuang. People like Messi, Robben, Ribéry, and Gómez have a relatively low chance of creating miracles against the wind."

In the 92nd minute, Bayern Munich threatened for the last time. Ribéry broke through from the left and made a pass. Gómez headed the ball from the edge of the small penalty area. De Gea confiscated the ball.

In the 94th minute, Manchester United's defender Ferdinand kicked the ball out of bounds, and Rizzoli blew the whistle to end the game.

"Beep, beep, beep--!"

The audience cheered thunderously. The Manchester United players were so excited that they rushed into the field and hugged each other. Some players even cried with joy.

Some of the Bayern Munich players were holding their heads and crying, some were looking up and sighing, and some were silently comforting their teammates...

Final score: Bayern Munich 2-4 Manchester United.

Manchester United won the Europe Champions League championship in the 2011-12 season! They became the first team to successfully defend the title since the restructuring of UEFA Champions League!

He Wei: "The referee Rizzoli from Italy blew the whistle at the end of the game. Let us congratulate Manchester United, let us congratulate Zhang Kuang, let us congratulate Ferguson, and congratulate them for winning the UEFA Champions League championship in the 2011-12 season.

They made history. This was the first team to win consecutive championships since UEFA Champions League was reorganized. Ferg led the team to historically win four UEFA Champions League championships. He was the first head coach.

Zhang Kuang is the first player to score a hat trick in two consecutive UEFA Champions League finals. He is also the player who won the first UEFA Champions League championship and won two consecutive championships.

He is also the player who set the scoring record in two consecutive UEFA Champions League tournaments. This season he pushed the number of goals scored by UEFA Champions League to an absolute record of 30 goals, which has never been done before in history."

He Wei said many words excitedly in one breath, and Zhang Lu had no choice but to wait aside.

After He Wei finished speaking, it was finally his turn.

Zhang Lu: "This is an absolutely meaningful game. Manchester United has won consecutive championships. Zhang Kuang once again performed a hat trick. He has become the biggest contributor to Manchester United's championship. It is worth celebrating. I just don't know if the rumors that he will leave Manchester United this season are true. If he really wants to leave, I am afraid he will set a super high transfer record..."

At the game, the Manchester United player first threw Ferguson high, and then went to throw Zhang Kuang. There was no other way. Who said he was the biggest hero?

Next... they were invited back to the locker room. As soon as they returned to the locker room, everyone had a round of champagne shots inside!

Of course, they couldn't shoot each other as much as they wanted. They could only wash up after three minutes. There was only a few minutes in between, and then they put on customized championship uniforms and went out to receive the award.

Jonathan was almost collapsed outside the court. Too many people were calling to make appointments with him. Several head coaches even directly said they wanted to meet Zhang Kuang. They were all confident in convincing Zhang Kuang in person.

The boss of Chelsea even said that as long as Zhang Kuang transfers to Chelsea, his salary will be doubled, and he will be given an additional fee of 5 million pounds as an agent.

In addition to Chelsea, Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich...

Of course, there is also Juventus, who was let go two years ago, and they are all calling him.

The most important thing is that Glazer brothers requested to have another meeting with him through David and Gill, and they wanted to renegotiate a contract extension with Zhang Kuang.

In the stadium, UEFA built a medal podium in the center of Allianz Arena.

After everything was properly arranged, as the announcement came on the radio, Bayern Munich player received the runner-up medal first, and Lahm, Schweinsteiger, and Neuer walked past the podium one by one with their heads lowered.

Heynckes stood at the end of the team with an expressionless face.

After receiving the medals, they quickly put them into their pockets and refused to wear them around their necks. Then everyone hurriedly walked off the podium and stood aside.

"Now we invite our champion team Manchester United to come on stage to receive the award. They are De Gea..." As the radio announced, the players of Manchester United came out one by one and stood on the podium.

"Finally, the soul of the team, the founder of the Manchester United dynasty, Sir Alexander Chapman Ferguson, four-time UEFA Champions League champion..."

Ferguson finally walked onto the stage, and then UEFA chairman Michelle Platini, under the guidance of the staff, put medals on the winning players one by one, shook hands and congratulated them.

When Platini presented the award to Zhang Kuang, he held his hand and said, "Congratulations, young man, you have pushed the skills and tactics of football to a new level. You are an amazing player and you are destined to become a legend in football. Work hard!"

Platini said a lot, so Zhang Kuang could only respond with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Chairman, for the compliment. I will definitely continue to work hard!"

After Platini finished handing out the medals, finally, with the assistance of the staff, the huge UEFA Champions League trophy was awarded to Vidić. This captain has been injured and has rarely participated in competitions recently, but how can we miss him at this award-winning moment?

Zhang Kuang and Vidić raised the trophy together under the slogan of 'one two three', and then the whole Manchester United team shouted, "We are the champions!"

Immediately afterwards, colorful confetti was sprayed out, and the fans cheered!

Reporters took photos one after another, and camera lenses were flying overhead.

Commentators from major TV stations expressed congratulations one after another.

Martin: "Congratulations to Manchester United, congratulations to Sir Ferguson, and congratulations to Zhang Kuang. I believe this is the peak moment of Manchester United. They are making history. Gary, do you regret retiring? If you had not retired, you would have won the trophy as captain today!"

Neville: "Yes, I have a little regret, but I know that regret is useless, because if I don't retire, it will affect the team's championship, because my body no longer supports me to persist in such high-intensity games.

Counting Community Shield, Europe Super Cup, FIFA Club World Cup, etc. this season, Manchester United played a total of 62 games this season, Martin, did you know? This is the most games played by the five major league teams.

62 games, these are just club games, some players still have to participate in national team games. This is not something we veteran players can endure, and it is a huge challenge for many players."

Martin:"That's true..."

Zhang Kuang handed the trophy to Rooney, Rooney lifted it up, then Ferdinand, then Giggs. The trophy was passed between the Manchester United players, and everyone who lifted it smiled like a child.

Ferguson stood aside and watched his players celebrate.

There was a satisfied smile on his face, but there was no meaning of farewell in that smile.

He still has one year of contract, should he finish the last year of coaching? The next step is to seriously consider it.

If you still coach, next season, can Manchester United surpass this season's triple crown?

Next, it was time for the players to take photos and go around the stadium with the trophy to thank the fans, while Ferguson packed up and went to the post-match press conference.

Of course, reporters on the scene may ask questions, but these questions should be left to the players.

Zhang Kuang was surrounded by reporters in the mixed interview area after the game.

"Zhang Kuang, how did you feel after winning the championship? Today you performed a hat trick, becoming the first player to perform two consecutive hat tricks in the history of UEFA Champions League finals. How do you evaluate your performance?"

Zhang Kuang thought for a while, "Needless to say, I am very excited and excited. How many players can be calm after winning the UEFA Champions League championship? This is the highest honor.

As for my hat tricks and record setting, those are nothing worth mentioning compared to winning the championship. After all, have I had fewer hat tricks this season? Have I set fewer records? I have become accustomed to it."

Reporter: "Why are you always able to set records? Is your ability innate or acquired? Why didn't you show off before you came to Europe?"

Zhang Kuang: "I can't explain this question clearly. You could say it's natural. My talent in this area has not shown up before. But if you say it's acquired, people who know me know that I'm not very diligent in training.

I can only say that after I suffered a series of shocks at China, when I came to Europe, I seemed to be enlightened. I can now do all the things that I didn't understand before, and I can also do movements that I couldn't do before. Therefore, I can only say that this is an enlightenment. I cannot say that it is a talent, nor can it be said that it is acquired through practice."

Reporter: "Why can't you do it at China?"

Zhang Kuang: "I don't know, this is a metaphysical question, I can't explain it."

Reporter: "Zhang Kuang, will you stay with Manchester United next season?"

Zhang Kuang glanced at the reporter. "I don't need to answer this question. You just need to wait until the new season starts and I still don't want the team."

Reporter: "Zhang Kuang, Bayern Munich fans threw debris into the stadium today. What do you think?"

Zhang Kuang's expression suddenly turned serious. "I can understand the fans' mood. It's normal for fans to get a little excited when their favorite team lags behind. But I think this kind of behavior is very bad and should be punished.

If everyone loses their temper because the team loses, and then allows them to cause destruction in order to vent their emotions, now it is just a matter of throwing grenades, what about throwing grenades? What about throwing artillery shells? What about vandalizing and looting in the streets? We cannot tolerate certain behaviors, and those who should be restrained must be restrained."

Reporter: "Then what do you think should be done?"

Zhang Kuang looked at the camera. "I am not a manager. I believe that the managers will make the most reasonable punishment."

Reporter: "..."
