Chapter 808: Chapter 575: Forcefully Tying the Champions League Single-Season 17-Goal Record! Champions League Final Four Revealed!

He delivered a long pass, finding Tang Long inside the penalty area.

Tang Long made a serpentine move, bypassing Godin, leapt high, and with a beautiful header, scored again!

2:0, Manchester City extended their lead.

In the second half, Manchester City continued to maintain their powerful offensive.

In the 60th minute, young Robertson broke through on the left wing and crossed, Tang Long at the near post in the penalty area turned and shot, successfully completing a hat trick!

Among these three goals, two were scored by headers, and one by a swift left-footed shot at the near post.

This was also the first time Tang Long completed a hat trick without using his favored right foot in scoring.

At this moment, in the live broadcast room, comments from fans floated by like snowflakes:

-[With headers and left foot, Tang Long has become more versatile than before! This is simply an evolved version of a striker!]

-[Last match he played midfield, this match as a striker, Tang Long proved that no matter the position, he’s the brightest star on the field! He’s a multi-talented player on the soccer field!]

-[The top player, without a doubt, Tang Long is now Manchester City’s only top player! Even Agüero has to bow before him!]

-[Agüero’s era has faded away; now the Premier League’s number one striker is Tang Long! He’s the new king of the Premier League frontline!]

-[Feeding teammates, while also gladly taking their feeds, such an all-around player is rare in the football world! Tang Long is a genius born for football!]

-[He’s scored 17 goals in the Champions League, tying the single-season record previously held by C Ronaldo, simply terrifying...]

-[The most frightening thing is that Tang Long is only 20 years old, he’s like a demonic player, where is his limit?]

When the halftime whistle blew, the score was locked at 4:0.

Atletico Madrid’s top striker Griezmann looked dejected, and unlike usual, he didn’t exchange jerseys with the best-performing player from the opponent.

Recalling the bold words he spoke in the last game, and looking at this cruel score now, his words seemed like a joke, disappearing without a trace amid the huge cheers at the Etihad Stadium.

Atletico Madrid was defeated, utterly defeated, completely routed!

If at the Wanda Metropolis they still had the confidence to battle Manchester City, then coming to the Etihad, Manchester City’s territory, they were like lambs to the slaughter, thoroughly trampled by Manchester City.

Griezmann gazed blankly at Manchester’s night sky, filled with sadness.

His eyes were full of loss and frustration, murmuring, "An illusion, it seems, everything before was an illusion..."

He was completely subdued by Tang Long, walking into the player tunnel, physically and mentally exhausted, leaving nothing behind at the Etihad but a solitary back view.

Meanwhile, in another match, Real Madrid played against Borussia Monchengladbach at the Bernabéu Stadium.

On the other side, Real Madrid also did not disappoint, winning 3:1 against Borussia Monchengladbach.

However, in this match, although C Ronaldo scored the opening goal, his performance was not particularly good, mainly showing impatience in scoring, making hasty decisions on many occasions. In this match, C Ronaldo made the most attempts with 10 shots but only scored one goal.

You know, the entire Borussia Monchengladbach team only had seven shots, while C Ronaldo alone accounted for half of Real Madrid’s total shots.

"What’s wrong with you today? Cristiano, you seem a little off." His friend Marcelo asked curiously.

"I’m very well, better than any other day!" C Ronaldo took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and joined the team in thanking the fans.

Although he said so, C Ronaldo was secretly feeling tense inside.

Because in this match, he only scored one goal, while Tang Long achieved a hat trick. As a result, his lead over Tang Long, which was three goals, shrunk to just one. Tang Long was already catching up closely behind him.

After the match, when faced with a compliment from a ’Marca’ reporter: "Cristiano, congratulations on setting another record, increasing a player’s single-season Champions League goal tally from 17 to 18. You’re a great player!"

C Ronaldo just gave a faint smile, not showing much excitement, leaving the other reporters present in awe.

At that moment, C Ronaldo was worried about how to increase his personal goal tally while ensuring the team’s victory.

He couldn’t help but sigh in his heart: "Even though I beat Messi to the Golden Ball Award last year, another formidable character like Tang Long emerges this year. It seems that the journey to becoming the world’s number one in football is never as smooth as imagined."

Two other matches were also being played simultaneously.

At the Westfalen Stadium, Dortmund faced off against Monaco in an intense clash.

The match was fiercely competitive, with both sides giving it their all.

Until the 85th minute, Reus received a pass from a teammate, dribbled past a defender inside the box, and calmly scored, helping Dortmund achieve a 1:0 victory over Monaco.

The aggregate score was 1:0, and Dortmund eliminated their opponent.

Meanwhile, at Juventus’ home stadium, Allianz Arena, Juventus faced off against Arsenal in another splendid match.

In the first leg, Juventus lost 1:2, and back at home, it was a do-or-die battle for them.

Throughout the match, Juventus players displayed strong determination, overturning the score with a 2:0 win!

Buffon played exceptionally, making saves high and low, managing to shut out Arsenal completely—bearing in mind that in the entire Premier League, excluding the high-scoring Manchester City, Arsenal ranks second in goals scored, yet they couldn’t break through Italy’s guardian Buffon’s goal, leaving frustrated.

When asked post-match about which team he’d like to face in the semifinals, Buffon paused, then revealed with a mischievous expression.

"If possible, I’d really like to meet Manchester City!"

The journalists were taken aback.

Why not Dortmund, why does Buffon want to face Manchester City?

Thus, the Champions League semi-finalists were determined.

Manchester City, Real Madrid, Dortmund, and Juventus successfully advanced to the semifinals!
