Chapter 2317

French referee Stefan lanoy blew the opening whistle.

Lanoy, 44, is a senior international referee who has been in charge of Brazil's group match with Ivory Coast at the world cup in South Africa. Towards the end of the match, Kaka and Keita collided in a high-speed run. Slow motion footage showed that the Brazilian star's elbow hit Keita's chest, while the Ivorian midfielder covered his face in pain.

Lanoy was deceived by Kata's superb performance and sent off Kaka. However, Real Madrid players did not seem to learn from this dangerous situation, and they were still careless and numb.

Mourinho was aware of the danger off the field, the players were passive defense for the first half, at this time it was skin, lost the sense of smell. Mourinho quickly ordered Higuain and Albiol to prepare for the game, with the intention of adjusting to change the spirit of the team.

However, at this time, Galatasaray's half court attack was effective, and it was combination boxing.
