Chapter 496 The Final Final

Chapter 496 The Final Final
"Qin Hu scored a hat trick as the Red Devils defeated Guangzhou Evergrande!"

As the game came to an end, reports from major domestic news media were quickly pushed out. Losing 0-4 was indeed ugly, but considering the opponent's status as the Champions League champion, it was not so difficult to accept.

Especially when Qin Hu, who was the most watched by Chinese fans, performed a hat trick and was only one goal away from the Golden Boot of the Club World Cup, domestic fans were more happy than depressed. After all, compared with the two, Qin Hu has a more important position in everyone's hearts.

After the game, Qin Hu took the initiative to have close contact with the Guangzhou Evergrande players and came to the Chinese fans' stands to throw out his jersey from the game.

When he took the five-star red flag handed to him by a fan and kissed it in front of the camera, no one blamed him for eliminating his hometown team.

While Manchester United defeated Guangzhou Evergrande to advance to the Club World Cup final, the result of another semi-final match was also decided.

As the host, the Moroccan team Casablanca Raja unexpectedly defeated the Copa Libertadores champion Atletico Mineiro at home and advanced to the Club World Cup final. This result was indeed a big upset.

The final showdown of every Club World Cup is often between the Champions League champion and the South American champion. The strength of the continental leagues in these two places is simply not on the same level as other continental leagues. But this time, the host team eliminated the South American champion with a score of 3-1 in advance, which cheered up the African fans.

On the Internet, African football fans who had previously had little presence all emerged, and suddenly a large number of people began to support the Casablanca Raja team. For a time, the atmosphere created seemed as if the two teams were completely evenly matched.

In the subsequent interview, Ferguson and his disciples also gave face to the host.

"The fact that our opponents have made it to the final of the Club World Cup has already proven their strength. We will go all out to win."

"The opponent is very strong, I will help the team to win with all my strength, the Golden Boot is very tempting but my first goal is still the championship."

Such remarks undoubtedly increased the favorability of local fans. Many people commented under the interview video that Manchester United not only played well, but the coach and players were also very gentlemanly.

While the outside world was discussing this game enthusiastically, the Manchester United team was still training very seriously every day under the leadership of Ferguson.

The final of the Club World Cup is in two days, but Manchester United will not take a holiday after the game. They will return to the UK and continue playing in the league until the winter break.

In this way, the team cannot relax at any point, although from the first-hand information Ferguson got, the strength of this African champion is unlikely to pose a threat to the team.

A day and a half of training ended in a blink of an eye, and soon Ferguson stood in front of the players again. The Club World Cup is the last trophy that Manchester United can compete for this year. After tomorrow's game, it will become clear whether they will win the perfect six championships or stop at the five-time championship.

"Tomorrow's match will determine the champion. Everyone who plays must be fully alert!"

Shouting to the group of players, Ferguson's eyes swept across each player like a knife.

"Don't underestimate our opponents, and don't underestimate yourselves. In my opinion, we have the strength to win all the championships, so let's play!"

"Understood, Boss!"

Responding loudly to Ferguson, there was a bright light in every player's eyes.

"Then we will play 433 in tomorrow's game."

Nodding and pulling over the tactical board, Ferguson announced the team's offensive starting lineup.

Rooney, Qin Hu and Van Persie are the three forwards, Nani, Carrick and Valencia are the three midfielders, Rafael, Vidic, Phil Jones and Evra are the four defenders, and De Gea is the goalkeeper.

With the strongest trident, the most stable three midfielders, the best defense of last season with three of the four teams in the top 10, and the indomitable goalkeeper De Gea, Ferguson has fielded the strongest team to compete for the championship.

"Fight with all your might and don't leave any regrets for yourself." "Understood!"

There were no further tactical arrangements. This was Ferguson's final statement. The team's 433 formation tactical coordination had been carried out countless times in training. In his opinion, defeating the opponent was definitely not a problem.

The next day, at the Stadio Arena, an hour after the third and fourth place final between Guangzhou Evergrande and Atletico Mineiro ended with Evergrande losing 2-3 to their opponent, the two final teams stepped onto the stadium.

"Okay, both teams are entering the stadium. Manchester United will continue to wear their classic red jerseys, while Casablanca Raja will wear their green and white home jerseys. This is a battle between the Champions League champions and the hosts of this Club World Cup."

He Wei's voice rang out again, and as he watched the two teams stepping into the stadium, there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.

"This game is the final battle for Manchester United to win six titles. If they win this final, they will become the first team in the Premier League to win six titles."

Entering the stadium, accepting the cheers of the fans, shaking hands and taking photos with the opposing players, each step was carried out in an orderly manner on the court, and the players on both sides had serious expressions on their faces.

For the Manchester United players, this was a game that they had to win and they were all secretly accumulating strength, while for the Karaja players, their serious faces were mainly due to nervousness.

"Both sides completed the captain's rock-paper-scissors game, and Manchester United chose the right to kick off. Both sides stood on the field."

Everyone was watching, and everything was silent. Everyone's eyes were on the referee on the field. He checked the time one last time and then blew the whistle to start the game.

“Sh ...

"Shu~"

The ball was kicked out by Qin Hu the next second. Van Persie received the ball and passed it to Carrick. The trident in Manchester United's 433 formation penetrated into the opponent's half at the fastest speed.

"The game has begun. Manchester United started to attack in a big way right from the start. They moved very quickly. Carrick passed two opponent forwards in a row and crossed the midfield. He passed the ball to Nani on the left and passed it directly with the outside of his foot!"

"Shu~"

In the 30th second of the game, Nani's outside foot kick accurately found Van Persie who had already run behind the opponent's right midfielder. Facing the falling ball, Van Persie had no intention of stopping the ball. He just picked up the falling ball again.

"The ball was passed directly without any adjustment. Van Persie passed it into the Karajah penalty area. There was Qin Hu!!!"

Everything happened too fast. Qin Hu's non-stop sprinting after the kick-off made his speed reach an astonishing level. When the opponent's defender saw a red tank rushing towards him and taking off in the next second, it was already too late.

"Oh!"

"Jump high and head the ball!!!"

"Shu~"

The ball flew into the goal past the stunned goalkeeper, and time stopped at the 39th second of the game.

"The ball goes in! Less than a minute into the game, Manchester United scored the first goal with Qin Hu's header!!!"
