This match.

The person most deeply affected in the world is Messi.

Messi watched it alone in his luxurious villa in Miami.

He refused the company of all his relatives and friends.

I sat alone in front of the big screen, watching the game quietly.

He was eager to know whether the 43-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo could defeat Inter Milan, advance to the Champions League semi-finals, or even reach the Champions League final and win the championship.

He originally thought that with Ronaldo's physique, even if he entered the Champions League and got a starting position, he wouldn't be able to adapt to this level of intensity.

Inter Milan is a very strong team, after all, they are the champions of Serie A. Even on a global scale, their strength is not in a league of its own, but they can definitely cause Manchester United some trouble.

So he wanted to use this match to see Manchester United's current strength and whether Ronaldo was capable of winning the Champions League.

However, the start of this match was not what he had imagined.

Jiang Feng's long passes were terrifying, he knew that, but he didn't expect Ronaldo to use a fake shot and real pass move that he had never done before in his career.

Only top players can understand how difficult this move is.

Even Messi can't do that.

At this moment, he had to admit that Cristiano Ronaldo's heart was always burning brighter than his when it came to pursuing his football dream.

He once surpassed Cristiano Ronaldo with his talent.

But Ronaldo, with his unwavering passion, has now surpassed him.

1,000 balls record.

The big golden ball.

Now, at 43 years old, he continues his Champions League journey.

This is not something that talent alone can solve.

If it were him, he might not have made it this far.

Messi frowned. He knew that this Manchester United team had a good chance of breaking history and becoming this year's Champions League winner.

"Can I...do that too?"

Messi is really tempted this time.

He knew that his physical functions were declining significantly, and after the World Cup, he had already planned to retire.

Coming to Inter Miami is just a buffer zone before retirement.

I thought Ronaldo would also choose to retire like me, but unexpectedly, Jiang Feng's appearance gave Ronaldo a second chance at football.

Messi sighed.

Why is there no river breeze around me?

Could it be that Cristiano Ronaldo is more attractive?

He couldn't quite understand it.

But I really envy them.

Moreover, is the Messi-Ronaldo era, which has lasted for more than a decade, really going to end with Messi's retirement and Ronaldo making history again?

Wouldn't that be incredibly unlucky for me?

Fans around the world will only remember the number 1, and no one will ever know who the number 2 is.

Messi sighed.

Looking back, it was a topic Beckham had discussed with him.

Let MSN face off against the C-style team.

What kind of situation will it be?

Can I beat Ronaldo even once again?

The kind that's aboveboard and aboveboard?

Messi doesn't know.

-----------------

The scene of the game.

After Bruno Fernandes scored a goal, Manchester United's momentum was unstoppable, despite Inter Milan's large midfield and very solid passing combinations.

But Manchester United were clearly more confident.

Their defensive counter-attacking style remained consistent.

It wasn't until halftime.

Inter Milan failed to break through Manchester United's goal; on the contrary, their goal was almost breached by Mbemo and Ronaldo.

This is because Manchester United is currently using a 4-4-2 formation, and the two forwards are somewhat lacking in attacking power.

但凡是跟之前一样,使用的是3-4-3的阵型,那幺绝对有机会把上半场的比分改写成2-0。

However, Carrick was already very satisfied with the 1-0 scoreline at halftime.

The reason why Jiang Feng was able to break through Inter Milan's midfield so easily was indeed due to his long passes.

Moreover, Carrick has now discovered that Jiang Feng's lower body strength has greatly improved.

The long pass distance is now around 40 meters, and the accuracy has been improved to over 9%.

Every pass lands right next to a teammate.

A miracle happened with great effort.

So Carrick said at halftime, "Feng, you have enough strength now. If Ronaldo and Mbemo draw the opponent's defense's attention up front, then you can definitely try a world-class shot, a 30-meter world-class shot, isn't that your forte?"

"B. Fernandes, Zion Williamson, you two are responsible for coordinating with Jiang Feng on defense. Menu, you need to find ways to pass the ball to Jiang Feng and create opportunities. The rest of you do the same, understand?"

Inside the changing room.

Everyone nodded in unison.

Manchester United's attacking tactics are now entirely centered around Jiang Feng.

But no one complained.

Giving Jiang Feng a chance is giving yourself a chance.

Although Bruno Fernandes scored in the first half, the key was Jiang Feng's long pass and Ronaldo's pass.

Whether Manchester United can advance to the semi-finals depends on Jiang Feng's performance.

And in the locker room next door.

Chivu was also intensely directing the tactics.

Since Manchester United is going to play a defensive counter-attacking style, then we will also adopt the same tactic and find opportunities to counter-attack while defending.

They have five midfielders, making counter-attacking very easy.

At this point, Jones said, "If all else fails, I'll go and tackle him!"

Chivu said, "Don't be ridiculous. You've seen Manchester United's previous matches. If you piss this kid off, we'll lose badly, and the fans will look down on us."

Atletico Madrid is a cautionary tale.

Despite facing a 9v10 situation, Inter Milan were completely dominated by a furious Manchester United. Could Inter Milan be about to repeat the same mistake?

Needless to say, they're only down by one goal, so there's no need to rush.

Even if we lose today, it's okay, there's still a second round of fighting.

The other players could only nod.

They simply couldn't handle this Manchester United team. Their defense was impenetrable, and their counter-attacks were lightning fast. Who could stand that?

Of course, the most crucial thing is that during counter-attacks, the pass must be accurate.

That kid is really... scary.

The second half of the game started soon.

Inter Milan also stopped rushing to attack.

The ball was pulled back and forth in the midfield between the two sides, and for a while, the game was tense, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.

A full 20 minutes passed.

Carrick also realized that Inter Milan might be trying to maintain this score until the end of the match, and then try to turn the tide in the second leg.

The opposing team clearly realized that Inter Milan's strength was inferior to Manchester United's, so they wanted to try their best to close the gap in goals and then find an opportunity to win the game in the second leg.

Lautaro and Thuram certainly have that kind of ability.

Therefore, Carrick was naturally unwilling.

Several defenders on the sidelines were shouting, trying to pass the ball to midfield so their team could choose to attack.

Since there's no need to defend anymore, let's start Manchester United's attack!

Upon seeing this, Dalot immediately passed the ball to Menu.

Manchester United's attack is very sharp.

Inter Milan immediately tensed up.
