Chapter 899



"GOOOOOAAAAALLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!"

"Rooney! Rooney! Rooney! He got a pass from Cristiano Ronaldo and scored, 1:0, Manchester United scored first, they played a fast counter-attack, very fast counter-attack, Manchester United showed us what is called a counter-attack speed!"

In a short period of time, the Olympic Stadium in Athens was only cheered by Manchester United fans. Manchester United saw the hope of becoming the strongest king in English football.

The Liverpool fans seemed very disappointed, even a little desperate.In the past five years, they haven't won against Manchester United, and they can't even draw with Manchester United.Now that they are falling behind again, Liverpool fans seem to see another defeat.

Ferguson stood up from the coach's bench and applauded vigorously.

The goal was scored, and Ferguson felt a lot more at ease. Now, Manchester United, which leads 1:0, has more capital to play defensive counterattacks.

Ferguson glanced at Liverpool's coaching bench and saw Benitez call a thin young man to the sidelines to give him an opportunity.That was Jermaine Pennant, Liverpool's right winger, a short player with good speed and good technique at his feet.

After the game started, Pennant's performance could only be described as mediocre, and he didn't show much threat. Ferguson didn't care too much.

However, after only 5 minutes, Ferguson realized that he underestimated the little player.

This is Pennant receiving a long pass from Carragher in midfield, he stopped the ball in the chest, and then made a sudden pick, the football flew over Scholes' head, and he himself twisted his waist and accelerated from the side of Ginger Head skimming.

"Breached!" Lineker yelled.

………………

Scholes was too easy, which directly disrupted Manchester United's defense deployment.

"You go!" Ferdinand shouted at Evra.

Evra rushed up, and Pennant looked at the Manchester United left-back who was rushing up. He pulled the ball horizontally, and at the same time raised his eyes to look in the direction of the goal, and then made a long-range shot with his feet.

Can't let him shoot!

Evra responded immediately, he shoveled directly.

"Fool!"

Yin Jun, who saw this scene in the middle, almost scolded, this is really an extremely reckless and even stupid choice.

Sure enough, Pennant, who has excellent skills and flexible movements, easily dunks past Evra who puts the shovel, and then dribbles into the penalty area.

The cheers of the Liverpool fans overwhelmed the Manchester United fans at this moment, and they saw the hope of scoring.

Dirk Dirk has moved up!

Pennant lifted his foot and was about to send a slash ball, and then a foot appeared in front of him!

There was a sound of "Boom!", and the two people met each other.

The football bounced, and the man didn't hesitate at all. He turned his body sideways, got stuck, and then kicked the football out of the sideline with an awkward posture.

"Carrick!" Andy Gray shouted excitedly, "At the critical moment, it was Carrick who rushed back to block Pennant's pass and successfully destroyed the offense. Yellow card suspension, unable to play in the final, we are all worried about Manchester United's midfield defense, but Carrick told everyone with practical actions, with him, don't worry!"

Ferguson stood up, not because he was unaware of Pennant's threat before, but because the player's state after the game started today was really average, which made Ferguson relax his vigilance, but now it seems that this Jiahui has been adjusting his state , and now the status is out.

………………

Three minutes later, Rooney collided with opposing defender Daniel Agger. The latter fell to the ground and the team doctor came in to check the Liverpool defender.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ferguson yelled at his players to come over: "Yin! Paul! Come here!"

Two Manchester United players heard the manager shouting and ran from the far end.

"Strengthen the pressure on Pennant." Ferguson pointed to Liverpool No. 16 on the field. "This little man is very flexible. Tell everyone not to give him any chance to break through easily."

"Also—" Ferguson put one arm on the other and said in a low voice, "Javier Mascherano, focus on pressing there, he is the key point for Liverpool's midfielder to play the ball, and is also a defensive barrier."

"Also, when attacking, Michael needed protection," said Ferguson, noting that Liverpool had also stepped up their pressing on Carrick.

"When Michael has the ball, you have to protect him," Ferguson said to Scholes. "Protect him from being sieged easily. If the ball is lost, go for it immediately. Yes, you go for it, Michael. Kerr drops back quickly and builds up behind you."

"Tell Ryan that he plays closer to the center to give Evra space to sprint on the wing."

"Understood, boss." Yin Jun and Scholes replied at the same time.

"Be smart, and you need to intercept it skillfully." Ferguson pointed to his own brain.

"Understood." Scholes nodded.

Ferguson glanced at Scholes, as if to confirm whether this guy really understood.

Then, he patted the shoulders of both of them, and said: "The midfielder is the key. You two, one can defend, and the other organizes the offense well. We will win this game."

Saying so, Ferguson pushed the two players back to the pitch and said loudly, "Come on!"

………………

After a few minutes.

Liverpool's attacking opportunity, Dirk Dirk suddenly kicked a long shot, the football was blocked by Vidic with his body, Carrick kicked the football forward, Giggs headed the ball, and wanted to give it to Everett who came over to respond Pull, but did not expect directly to Mascherano.

Mascherano had just received the ball and was about to turn around when he was pushed down from behind. It was Scholes who fouled.

"This time it was Scholes' foul, a smart tactical foul!" Lineker praised.

When Mascherano got the ball, both Pennant and Alonso were running. There was a lot of space in front of them.As long as Mascherano passes the football, it is a great threat.

The referee awarded Liverpool a free kick in the front court, but he did not draw a card to Scholes. His action just now was small and not enough to get a card, but the referee Merkel verbally warned Scholes. Erles, the latter accepted humbly.

Liverpool coach Benitez was so angry that he thought the referee should play a card, and he didn't even get a card. The Manchester United stopped a threatening attack by Liverpool with a negligible foul. This deal is simply profitable. big.

On the Manchester United side, Ferguson was applauding for the defense.He nodded in satisfaction, it seems that Scholes really understood what he meant.
