Manchester City and Chelsea's FA Cup finals were at 7:15 p.m. GMT on May 5.

Two hours and forty-five minutes later at 10 o'clock in the evening, Barcelona will welcome their city rival Espanyol at home.

When the first half of the FA Cup final ended, the entire Barcelona team was departing from the hotel to the stadium.

Iniesta suddenly took off his headphones and said to Messi next to him: "The first half ended, no goal was scored."

Messi glanced at him.

"I'm also very concerned about this matter. Although I'm Rong's fan, I hope you can win, Leo." Iniesta smiled at him.

After hearing Iniesta's words, Xavi turned around and said to Messi: "Come on this game, we will all support you!"

Messi understands Xavi's kindness, that is, the whole team will help him score goals.

He originally wanted to say that this was a personal competition between himself and Lucky, and he did not want to let himself benefit from everyone's glory.

But when he said that, he still refused to say it because he was a little worried, worried that he would not be able to defeat glory, fighting alone.

"Thank you." The words turned to a smile and thanked him.

At the same time, Messi found a reason for himself in his heart.

No matter how great a player is, he needs the help of his teammates. Football is a collective sport, otherwise there would be no eleven people per team. So it is not considered a victory for yourself, this is football.

When Messi arrived at Camp Nou with the team, they were warmly welcomed by Barcelona fans waiting there.

The last league victory over Madrid's suburban team Vallecano made Barcelona fans less resentful about being eliminated from the Champions League. This same-city derby aroused the fans' competitive spirit, and the Champions League was over. No matter how exciting Barcelona fans won't pay attention.

Now their minds are all in the same city derby.

Barcelona fans regard every showdown with Espanyol as a great opportunity to beat Madrid's central government's Royal central government, and football is full of political significance here.

Messi got out of the car amid the enthusiastic cheers of the fans.

When he got off the car, there were only shouts of "Messi! Messi" at the scene. Barcelona fans were cheering Messi in this way, hoping that he could defeat Glory in the competition with Glory.

Messi waved to the fans, then lowered his head and followed his teammates into the passage and walked towards the locker room.

And just as he walked into the passage, at Wembley Stadium in London, England, the whistle in the second half was also blew.

Before the second half, when Rong Guang walked out of the player channel, the close-up of the TV broadcast followed him firmly, John Motson said: "Rong performed normally in the first half. He had three shots and actively passed the football to his teammates in the offense. Sometimes he would even pull out to create offensive opportunities for his teammates, sacrificing himself to make others successful. It seems that he did not deliberately chase the goal. As he said before the game, he cared more about whether the team was whether the team was more concerned.

Being able to win the FA Cup, not whether he can personally win the glory of the player who scored the most goals in a single season... But what I want to say is, don't make a mistake, honor. If you can beat Messi to win the glory of the player who scored the most goals in a single season, then Manchester City's team will definitely... be able to win the championship! Not only the FA Cup, but also the Champions League! So in fact, the two do not conflict! In the second half, be a little more unique! If you have a slight chance to shoot, don't pass the ball! Your team needs your goals, and we also need it!"

Alan Hansen laughed beside him: "You are here with deep affection, and Rong can't see it, and he can't hear what you say."

But perhaps it was Rongguang and John Mortson who thought of going together. After the second half, Rongguang was indeed more active in shooting.

Just three minutes into the game, he had a threatening shot, forcing Chelsea goalkeeper Cech to make a world-class save and raid the football out of the baseline.

"Rong!!" John Mortson was very excited, "By the way! That's it! That's it! Shoot!"

After saying that, he looked proudly at Alan Hansen next to him.

Alan Hansen grinned.

In fact, he also hopes to see the glory a little more unique...

He hopes that Rongguang and Messi can refresh the single-season goal record in this competition to a height that future generations cannot reach, and he wants to be a witness to history.

After many years, people will talk about this surprising season and the number of goals that are thriving, which will be insurmountable, and he will be remembered by history as a witness to history and legend.

He likes this feeling.

Because it's really cool...

Chelsea felt nervous when Rong Guang's shot three minutes into the opening game.

Not only the Chelsea fans in the stands, but also the Chelsea players on the court were scared and sweated.

They must immediately enter the game state and compete with Glory, but they don’t have time to slow them down. Even the slow-heating teams have to run and enter the game state.

That's what Chelsea is like.

They began to shrink their defense and planned to resist Manchester City's continuous offensive offensive campaigns during this period.

Chelsea players are full of confidence in this. Since they can hold their goal in the first half, they can continue to do so in the second half.

※※※

In the fourth minute after Rong Guang's shot, Rong Guang received a pass from his teammate at the front of Chelsea's penalty area.

Because of Chelsea's defensive strategy, in this area, other Manchester City players basically cannot pass the football to Glory in advance. Although this will allow Glory to play his speed advantage, it also means that the football will be directly passed to the feet of Chelsea's back defender.

Manchester City had several such passes in the first half. They originally wanted to pass them to Glory, but they were directly given to Chelsea players.

So now when Manchester City players look for Glory again, they will send football to Glory's feet.

Although Glory cannot run away from the defensive players, the ball is still under Manchester City's feet.

After Glory received the ball, in front of him were three Chelsea players, center back John Terry, midfielder Mikel and Ramirez.

There is Lampard behind his side, and Mata on the other side.

Five Chelsea players formed a circle of glory, surrounding him in the middle.

With such a posture, if Rongguang was a little bigger when the ball was stopped just now, it would be very likely that Chelsea players would rush over and snatch the football away.

Fortunately, Rong Guang's stopping the ball was very steady just now and stepped on the football directly under his feet. Even if the Chelsea players want to come up and grab it, they have to give up this idea.

There cannot be any accident in this surround. If someone rashly robs it, it will give Glory a chance to break through. The person who robs will become a gap in Glory's breakthrough, and the entire surround will collapse instantly.

Therefore, this encirclement does not need to break the ball under Rong Guang's feet. As long as Rong Guang can make it difficult for him to shoot the football out, it will be considered successful.

Glory is not unfamiliar with Chelsea's siege, nor is it surprising.

He was deeply trapped in such a circle many times in the first half.

At that time, the glory in the encirclement finally passed the football out - Chelsea arranged five people around him, and the defensive forces in other places were always less, right? So he gave the football to teammates with a better position than himself.

However, Chelsea players are very fast to transfer their defensive positions. They run quickly and sprint back and forth at the front of their penalty area without any effort, ensuring the integrity and stability of the defense line.

It has to be said that Di Matteo's very targeted defensive tactics are very effective, and Chelsea players are also working hard to win the championship in order to defeat Manchester City.

The three armies use their lives and the generals work together. What can they not do?

Chelsea fans in the stands are full of confidence in the team and look forward to be able to beat Manchester City in the final and win the FA Cup championship.

※※※

Before, Rong Guang would pass the football out every time he took the ball in the encirclement.

But this time, he doesn't plan to pass the ball anymore.

Although he was deeply trapped in a siege, he seemed to have no chance to shoot at all, but Rongguang knew very well that the impossible opportunity contained huge rewards.

It is precisely because Chelsea defenders think they can't shoot in their circle, and once he shoots, they can't react at all!

But...how to solve the problem of shooting?

Everyone in Chelsea's encirclement is very suitable for Glory and not too close. But if Glory wants to shoot, I'm afraid that when he plays football, the opponent's legs and body will be blocked.

Moreover, when shooting, you should have a running distance, and at the same time, you should also form a certain angle between the support foot and the football. At least your body cannot be directly above the football, as it will be difficult to exert force.

But now... the football was trampled by glory, and his body's center of gravity was directly above the football, which was the worst case to shoot.

The glorious brain is rotating rapidly.

From the time of receiving the ball to now, the starting time has only been more than a second, but Rong Guang's mind has been spinning for countless rounds. His brain made a decision and issued instructions to his body.

I saw Rongguang stomping on the football's right foot and swinging it backwards, while his body leaned back.

The part of the right leg swing is actually only the calf, so the movement of swinging the leg is not very large and the speed is very fast. Then Rong Guang's right foot is pulled forward again. At the same time, with the help of the power of his body leaning back, his right leg swings forward faster and more powerfully!

Bang!

He hit the football with the toe of his right foot!

The legs swing and the sloping back and the shooting were almost done in an instant.

When Mikel and John Terry, who were in front of Glory, realized that Glory was shooting, the football had already flown in front of them and drilled through the gap between them!

He shouted for a moment, and in less than a blink of an eye, he flew behind them!

“ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO—!!!”

John Motson shouted out after the football flew towards the goal.

Amid his elongated roar, the football floated in the air flying towards the goal, which made Cech's save extremely difficult. In his eyes, the football floated irregularly!

He finally made a save, but the football deviated from his save path...
Chapter completed!
