I am the king of football

Chapter 191 Pressure
After a short halftime break, players from both teams returned to the field. The morale comparison between the two teams was very consistent with the score.

The Manchester United team, which was already leading by two goals, was full of energy, while the Galatasaray players opposite them were a little depressed. However, this depression still did not make the visiting team completely powerless to fight back.

When the second half of the game started, the tenacious Galatasaray still showed their dignity as a Turkish Super League giant. Even though they were two goals behind, the whole team did not just shrink back.

"The game started again, Galatasaray was still trying to score goals, they did not give up after falling behind by two goals!"

Zhan Jun's tone was also full of admiration. As Qin Hu's opponent in his Champions League debut, he didn't want this to be a pure bullying game. Only if the opponent was tenacious and respectable enough, Qin Hu's second goal would be of high enough value.

On the field, as the visiting team continued to attack their own defense after kicking off, the busiest people became the back line led by Vidic. However, with the team already leading by two goals, this time they performed more steadily than in the first half.

No Galatasaray player hit the post again. Almost all of their shot attempts were made under the tight defense of Manchester United's back line. It was a pipe dream to expect them to exert their full strength or create an angle.

Not to mention, behind such a defense line, there is a goalkeeper De Gea. Even if Galatasaray can shoot threatening shots, the outcome will be difficult to change.

After withstanding several waves of attacks from the opponent, the initiative returned to Manchester United. As midfielders Scholes and Carrick began to cooperate to pass the ball forward, the team's wingers and two forwards began to get opportunities frequently.

In the midfield, the most active person at this moment is not Qin Hu or Scholes, but Van Persie.

From the first day of joining Manchester United, Van Persie was mentally prepared to become the team's offensive core, and he did so, trying his best in every game and scoring goals repeatedly.

But no matter how hard he tried, there was always someone above him, and that was Qin Hu, who had won three MVPs in a row and scored in five consecutive games.

Although the two have a very good personal relationship, and even Qin Hu and he have many assists to each other on the court, but as a striker, a long-established striker, Van Persie still has ambitions and unwillingness to accept defeat.

He is already 29 and Qin Hu is only 18. Although ability and performance on the football field are never determined by age, it is still uncomfortable to be suppressed by a young player.

This made Van Persie extremely active after the start of the second half. Qin Hu had already scored twice. It would be too uncomfortable for him if he couldn't even score a goal.

Unfortunately, some things are harder to accomplish the more anxious you are. From the 50th minute of the game, with the support of his teammates, Van Persie began to frequently take control of the ball.

The Dutch striker is not bad in breaking through ability, but this is definitely not something he is good at. Several attempts ended up in a dead end after passing one or two opponents.

By the time he reacted and stopped trying to get the ball in advance and instead ran deeper to get a chance to shoot directly after getting the ball, it was already more than ten minutes later.

During this period, Scholes and Carrick behind him saw it all. As top midfielders, they could naturally see that Van Persie was a little too impatient. In this situation, the ball possession began to slowly shift towards Qin Hu.

As one of the team's two forwards, Qin Hu is much more stable in handling the ball. He either holds the ball with his back to the goal and blocks the position, or passes the ball to his teammates on both sides in time. His main focus is harmony.

As a result, Manchester United's attack, which had been stagnant for a while, started again in full swing.

In the 67th minute of the game, Nani made a run on the left and received a pass from Qin Hu, then he shot directly. His shot with the outside of his foot shocked everyone, but Muslera, who was standing in front of the goal, took off and made a great save, and the ball was just lifted out of the baseline.

Later, Manchester United got a corner kick opportunity. After Scholes sent the ball, Van Persie finally headed the ball, but unfortunately, due to the interference of the defenders around him and the slightly late grasp of time, the ball was directly confiscated by Muslera. Perhaps these two consecutive successful saves completely activated Muslera. In the next five minutes, although Manchester United seized the opportunity to steal the ball in the half and brought waves of continuous attacks, the ball was eventually blocked outside the goal.

Time passed by minute by minute, and when the game reached the 73rd minute, Ferguson no longer hesitated and started to make substitutions.

Van Persie, who had a mediocre performance and even received a yellow card after 70 minutes for excessive movement in a fight for the ball, was replaced by Hernandez, while Shinji Kagawa came on as a substitute for Scholes. Manchester United, which was leading by two goals, replaced all the offensive players in the midfield and frontcourt.

Such substitutions made the Red Devils' offensive intensity increase instead of decrease. As a qualified wingman, Hernandez's main job after coming on the court was to take away the opponent's defensive strength through ghostly running. So Qin Hu, who had been silent for more than 30 minutes, began to show his power again.

"Oh!"

"A super world wave shot! Qin Hu's powerful shot is still powerful, but unfortunately Muslera once again saved the ball~"

In the 75th minute of the game, Qin Hu on the left side outside the penalty area received a pass from Shinji Kagawa and shot the ball, making the Galatasaray players' eyelids twitch.

But that's not all. In the 76th minute of the game, Manchester United launched a corner attack. The ball was kicked out by Shinji Kagawa from the right corner area. Qin Hu in the penalty area showed everyone what it meant to be one to three.

"He still headed the ball even with three defenders hanging on him, and it bounced off the ground! Oh, what a pity, the ball flew out of the left post and out of the bottom line."

Once again, he narrowly missed the goal. This time, even Muslera, who was in great form, closed his eyes and gave up. He could not even touch the rebound ball that Qin Hu had headed out despite extreme interference.

However, the story is not over yet.

"Roar!"

After landing in a mess, Qin Hu shook off the three defenders who were still leaning on him. His anger was forced out. He could understand if one or two people were leaning on him, but this time three people were pulling and dragging him. He turned around and walked towards the referee to protest.

“This is a foul referee!!!”

"That's right!"

With Qin Hu taking the lead, the Red Devils players began to put pressure on the referee. At this moment, the fans in the stands of Old Trafford also began to boo loudly.

"Oh~, Manchester United players are starting to put pressure on the referee. The boos from the crowd are enough to burst one's eardrums. This is indeed one of the devil's home grounds in the Premier League."

Listening to the huge boos, Zhan Jun couldn't stand it just by putting himself in the situation, not to mention the referee on the court.

The referee also saw what happened just now. He wanted to just let it go, but when the game was obviously stopped, he swallowed his saliva and quickly communicated with the two linesmen through the headset.
