Seven-time Champion

Chapter 688: Paris Saint-Germain advances to the Champions League final

Views:

The worse Paris Saint-Germain's form gets, the more excited Ivian, who desperately needs points to avoid relegation, will naturally become.

In the 39th minute, Ivian finally opened the door for Paris Saint-Germain with a corner kick.

Ivian players ran wildly on the field, and the few Ivian die-hard fans in the stands celebrated wildly.

Facing the powerful Paris Saint-Germain, everyone thought they were doomed to lose. Unexpectedly, they scored the first goal and took the lead.

Not long after the game resumed, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

In the second half, Lu Wenbin's teammates wanted to score a goal to equalize the score, but Lu Wenbin pretended to be physically exhausted, his running range decreased a lot, and he continued to deliberately create mistakes for his own team, making it difficult for Paris Saint-Germain to score a goal to equalize the score.

In the 72nd minute, when Paris Saint-Germain had not yet scored to equalize the score, Ivian scored another goal on a counterattack to expand the score.

It was surprising that Paris Saint-Germain fell behind 0-2 to relegation team Yvion at their own Parc des Princes.

Although Paris Saint-Germain had fought a series of tough battles and had a tight schedule, shouldn't they have been beaten 2-0 at home by a relegation team with all their main players in the game and Lu Wenbin in the starting lineup

Many people had some doubts in their minds.

On the court, Lu Wenbin felt relieved when he saw the opponent scored two goals and took a two-goal lead.

After all, it was a bit abnormal that he didn't have a single goal or assist.

Based on his previous data, even if he is physically exhausted or in poor condition, he should still be able to assist his teammates to score a goal, right

Anyway, Ivian was already leading by two goals, and scoring a goal wouldn't affect the team's loss, and it would also prevent others from accusing him of not putting in enough effort.

So, Lu Wenbin finally performed normally in the 88th minute, using a free kick to help Paris Saint-Germain equalize a point and maintain his own image.

It is estimated that only the top management of Paris Saint-Germain can guess the reason why Lu Wenbin only scored one goal in this game. Others can only think that Lu Wenbin was in poor form.

But the Paris executives were helpless with Lu Wenbin. They could not force Lu Wenbin to score a goal, and this matter could not be forced.

Even if it is exposed, it will be useless. Lu Wenbin insists that he is in poor condition due to consecutive battles, and the club is helpless. No one can force a player to score a certain number of goals in a certain game.

As a result, Paris Saint-Germain's unbeaten streak across seasons and its undefeated streak this season have finally been interrupted. No one has to think about winning the championship any more, and everyone can shift all their focus to the Champions League and the French Cup.

On April 28, in the 35th round of French Ligue 1, Paris Saint-Germain played away against Sochaux, and the management finally did not want Blanc to fight for the league anymore.

Blanco naturally left main players such as Lu Wenbin at the training base to prepare for the second round of the next Champions League semi-final. He himself took a team composed of substitutes and youth team players to the away game.

As expected, Paris Saint-Germain, who played with substitutes and youth team players, lost 1-3 away from home to Sochaux, who was in desperate need of points to avoid relegation and fighting hard.

Of course, no one in Paris Saint-Germain, from the media to the fans, cared anymore. When Blanc announced the starting lineup, everyone knew that this game was abandoned.

What Paris Saint-Germain has to fight for is the second round of the Champions League semi-final.

After resting for a round of league games, not only Lu Wenbin, but other main players have also recovered a lot.

In particular, the resumption of training by Ibrahimovic and Motta gave Paris Saint-Germain a shot in the arm.

On April 30, the other semi-final ended first, with Real Madrid defeating Bayern Munich 5-0 in two rounds and advancing to the Champions League final.

If Bayern Munich wants revenge on Real Madrid, they will have to wait.

At 20:45 on the evening of May 1st, with the referee's whistle, the second leg of the 2013/2014 Champions League semi-final between Paris Saint-Germain and Atletico Madrid officially began at the Parc des Princes, the home stadium of Paris Saint-Germain.

Having lost 1-2 in the first round and falling behind in the aggregate score, Paris Saint-Germain had no choice but to press forward and attack.

Atletico Madrid continued their defensive counterattacks and high pressing.

When it comes to reaching the finals, both teams are fighting hard.

As for Atletico Madrid, under Simeone's coaching, they are excellent both physically and tactically, posing a huge obstacle to Paris Saint-Germain's attack.

But on Paris Saint-Germain's side, after a round of league rest, everyone has recovered in terms of physical fitness and condition.

Lu Wenbin, in particular, tried his best to lead his team to defeat the opponent and advance to the finals.

In the 4th minute of the game, Lu Wenbin gave Atletico Madrid a warning with a long shot from outside the penalty area.

Although the ball finally went slightly over the crossbar and did not hit the goal frame, it still scared Atletico fans.

Lu Wenbin is still a huge threat, and Atletico Madrid has to focus its main energy on defending Lu Wenbin.

But with their undefeated league record now broken, the rest of PSG’s players are pinning their hopes on the Champions League.

If we can win the first Champions League for Paris Saint-Germain, there will be no shortage of bonuses and honors.

Everyone worked together to eliminate Atletico Madrid and reach the final.

Although Atletico's defense was very strong under Simeone's coaching, they still failed to keep the goal after taking a break for one league game, with Ibrahimovic and Motta returning to the starting lineup and Lu Wenbin giving his all.

In the 26th minute, Lu Wenbin, who was dribbling the ball on the right side of the midfield, made a long pass to Lavezzi on the left side of the penalty area.

Lavezzi easily took the ball off the line without being defended and then cut inside.

Two Atletico defenders rushed towards Lavezzi, who faked a shot and passed the ball to Ibrahimovic in the middle.

Ibrahimovic's pretending to shoot naturally made the Atletico defenders in and outside the penalty area nervous. They all rushed towards Ibrahimovic, and even Lu Wenbin was left unguarded.

As a result, Ibrahimovic raised his foot and let the ball slip to the right again.

Lu Wenbin cut in from the wing, shot the ball without stopping, and hit the far post into Atletico Madrid's goal.

Paris Saint-Germain 1-0, tied the score 2-2 in two legs, and had an away goal.

If the game ended with this score, Atletico Madrid would be eliminated, and the situation would be reversed.

In the subsequent games, Atletico Madrid had to press forward and attack, while Lu Wenbin led Paris Saint-Germain to counterattack Atletico Madrid.

Despite Lu Wenbin's organization and Ibrahimovic and Cavani's attacks, Atletico Madrid ultimately failed to turn the tables.

The final result of the game was that Lu Wenbin scored a goal and assisted twice, helping Paris Saint-Germain to reverse the total score of 1-2 away and 4-1 at home, 5-3 in two rounds, eliminate Atletico Madrid, and advance to the 2013/2014 Champions League final.

This is Paris Saint-Germain's best result in the Champions League in history. Previously, Paris Saint-Germain's best result was only the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Lu Wenbin demonstrated his role as the world's number one superstar.

Paris Saint-Germain, a French Ligue 1 team whose lineup is not as deep as Real Madrid's, was still led by Lu Wenbin into the Champions League final despite fighting on four fronts, and is qualified to compete with Real Madrid for the championship.

In the final, Lu Wenbin and his former club Real Madrid turned against each other.

Whether Real Madrid will win the Champions League for the third consecutive time, or Lu Wenbin will lead Paris Saint-Germain to the top for the first time, the answer will be revealed on May 24 at the Estadio de Luz in Lisbon, Portugal.
