Messi was so scared that he cried when he maxed out his header talent at the start of the game

Chapter 438

The UEFA Champions League, the ultimate battle for all the top European clubs, the battlefield of honor.

No team will give up before the whistle of the game, including Galatasaray from the Turkish Super League.

In the away team's locker room.

Eric Gretz fed the players chicken soup crazily.

"1 goal!!"

"Although we didn't score in the first half, they only scored 1 goal against us!"

"The so-called Premier League champions are not as strong as we thought!"

"They are not Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Milan, or Chelsea."

"They are the same as us."

"Just a new team participating in the Champions League this year."

"As long as we want to win, victory will be on our side, rush up, I need to see each of you rush up in the second half!"

The players of Galatasaray regained their fighting spirit in their eyes.

On the other side.

In the home team's locker room, Stewart carefully analyzed the opponent's tactics and running positions in the first half.

Just one sentence stabilized the morale of the troops.

"Did you see those Blue Moon fans on the field?"

"This is the first time in their lives to watch Manchester City's Champions League game at home!"

"A beautiful victory will become one of the best memories of each of them in this life!"

.......................................................

The second half of the Manchester City vs. Galatasaray battle started soon.

Compared with the first half.

In the second half, the two sides further strengthened the scale of confrontation, and the rhythm of the game became very fast.

Manchester City wanted to score and expand their lead.

And the Turkish powerhouse needed to score and equalize the score first.

"Yellow card!"

"Yellow card!"

"Another yellow card!"

"The referee showed a yellow card warning to Galatasaray right winger Ackerman!"

"This is the fourth yellow card in the second half."

"The game has entered the 70th minute."

"The score between the two sides is still Manchester City leading 1:0."

On the court, Podolski, who was fouled by Ackerman, got up and spat, glaring at Ackerman.

However, he did not worry too much about whether the opponent's foul was malicious.

This game has entered a white-hot stage.

The confrontation between the two teams is very large.

Both are a little bit over the top.

Not long ago.

He also knocked down Galatasaray defender Thomas in a high-pressure press and received a yellow card.

"A set piece near the Manchester City midline."

"Podolski!"

"Kick off quickly and pass it to Su Fei next to him."

"Su Fei!"

"A long diagonal pass!"

"A wide transfer!"

"Pass the ball to Cassano on the left!"

"Cassano!"

"Cut inside with the ball!"

"Small angle volley!"

"This ball..."

"Unfortunately, this shot was a bit straight and was confiscated by Topal."

"Since the second half, the two teams have sent a total of 9 shots, but unfortunately neither of them has scored."

"There are many opportunities!"

"But none of them have been seized!"

"The situation is very tense!"

"Whichever side can score the first goal in the second half can take the initiative and break the deadlock."

....................................................

On the court, Stuart drank a sip of water nervously.

As he expected during the halftime break, Galatasaray performed particularly tenaciously in the second half.

Coupled with the increasing interference of the scale of confrontation.

Making another goal become an expectation that seems very close, but a little far away.

It doesn't matter if you can't score.

But Galatasaray's offensive is also very fierce.

And the game came to the 80th minute.

The thing that Stuart subconsciously worried about the most still happened.

......

Galatasaray attack.

Sarioglu unloaded the high lob from his backfield teammate Topal in the middle at the top of the Manchester City penalty area.

Javi Martinez immediately stepped forward to defend and put pressure.

Result.

Sarioglu fell down after the confrontation.

Beep!

The referee blew the whistle, and the Blue Moon fans at the Etihad Stadium instantly quieted down.

Set-piece!

Galatasaray got a set-piece right at the top of the penalty area.

Eric Gretz on the sidelines lit up.

Opportunity!

The team's chance to equalize the score finally came!

Manchester City players were a little panickedUnder James's command, they began to set up a human wall.

Cannavaro and Dunn stood on the left and right sides of the goal line, acting as human goalposts.

The rest of the people lined up in front of the goal.

In the ESPN live broadcast room, Zhan Jun's expression showed worry.

"Free kicks from this position cannot be defended!"

"There are only 10 minutes left in the regular time of the game."

"If Galatasaray equalizes the score with a free kick from Sarioglu!"

"It means that Manchester City's efforts in the past 70 minutes will be in vain!"

"The two teams will return to the same starting line."

On the court, Stewart nervously drank a whole bottle of water, his eyes fixed on Sarioglu who was about to shoot.

The fans' stands were not quiet.

The 2,000 Turkish fans who traveled with the team are using their voices to boost Sarioglu's courage.

Sabri Sarioglu.

Born in 1984, 1.7 meters tall.

Born in Galatasaray youth training, he has been the starting forward of the first team since 2003-04.

In the 92 games he played for the first team, he only scored 8 goals. He is not a midfielder with a strong desire to shoot, but more of a link between the team's midfield and frontcourt.

But today.

He knew he had a chance to become a hero of Galatasaray with this shot!

Beep!

As the referee blew the whistle, everyone's heart was in their throat.

"Sarioglu!"

"Let's see what kind of shot he will choose."

"Sarioglu!"

"Shoot!"

"This ball..."

"Goal! Goal! Goal!"

"Sarioglu!!"

"With an extremely high-quality shot, he passed the Manchester City wall and sent the ball into the dead corner of the goal!"

"Wow!"

"This shot is so beautiful. Sarioglu withstood the pressure and helped the team survive in the 81st minute of the game!"

"Successfully helped Galatasaray equalize the score!"

"1:1!"

"The two teams are tied!"

"Now the pressure is on Manchester City, because they once led their opponents for 70 minutes!"

-[Oh my God! This...]

-[To be honest, this direct free kick is really beautiful, and the ball just flew over Cannavaro's head. 】

-【This guy can brag about this for a year. In the Champions League, the team was behind for 70 minutes, but he first created a free kick and then scored to equalize the score. He is the team's hero! 】

-【No way, Manchester City will not draw today. Although it is only the Champions League group stage, it is too disappointing. 】

On the court, Sarioglu covered his mouth with his hands and ran excitedly in disbelief, followed by his teammates shouting behind him.

In the stands, Turkish fans went crazy, and the emotions that had been suppressed for nearly a whole game burst out completely.

Stuart kicked the water bottle at his feet away.

Opened his mouth.

And swallowed the swear words that were about to blurt out.

Draw.

It is definitely not a result that he and the entire Manchester City can accept today.

The old man turned his head and looked at Knight with a sullen face.

"Knight, warm up and get ready to play!"
