Chapter 1509 I Don't Understand
When the first half ended, there was a sense of relief among Manchester United players and fans alike.

Then came rejoicing, and finally self-confidence.

Because they defended Liverpool's indiscriminate bombing in the first half.

In the face of a siege that lasted nearly three and 10 minutes, they did not concede a goal.

This kind of defensive hardness is very good.

This performance gave them the confidence to stick to it until the end of the game.

Now as long as they hold on for 1 more minute, it is victory.Because with the passage of time, Liverpool's physical strength is also rapidly disappearing.

After 75 minutes of the second half, the physical fitness of the Liverpool players reached a limit. At that time, as long as Manchester United exerted a little pressure, Liverpool could completely collapse!
At that time, whether it was scoring or not scoring, Manchester United was already invincible.

In contrast, Liverpool's players walked off the pitch with sullen faces and bowed heads.

Everyone's face is not good-looking.

They fell behind by one goal in the first half and were unable to pull it back until the end of the first half.Secondly, they still have one less player, which will have a profound impact on the team's game in the second half.

Back in the locker room, the Manchester United players were very excited. They hugged Rooney one after another and applauded Rooney's performance in the first half.

Someone also asked Rooney if he did the penalty on purpose, because everyone felt that with Rooney's speed, it was impossible for Skrtel to catch him easily.

So Rooney spoke out his plans under the admiration of everyone.

He got more praise and adulation.

It is really amazing to be able to think of this battle plan in such a short moment.

At that time, many people's brains may not be able to react at all.

Now because of Rooney, Liverpool are one goal behind and one less.

As long as Manchester United continue to stick to it in the second half, the victory will belong to Manchester United.

That's not what makes them the happiest.

What makes them most happy is the return of Ferguson.

When the coach returned to the dressing room, he was warmly welcomed by the players.

Everyone applauded and cheered for Ferguson.

Ferguson's face was flushed, how could he have the slightest decadent look of a retired old man?

Everyone was fooled by him, and he himself was satisfied with the result.

He waved his hand, and the cheers in the locker room died down.

"Guys, now is not the time to cheer." Although happy, Ferguson was still very calm. "It's 45 minutes and anything can happen in those 45 minutes. So cheer and cheer when the game is over!"

What the boss said must be right. After he finished speaking, no one cheered.Everyone just looked at him, hoping he could say a few more words.

"First of all, I want to apologize to you. Yes, I deceived you. But everyone saw it, and I deceived them too." Ferguson pointed to the door. "It worked out well. It wasn't until the goal was conceded that they realized what they had done wrong."

There was a burst of laughter in the locker room.

Manchester United players think it's fun for Liverpool to be cheated, and it's very satisfying.At this time, they forgot that they were also deceived by Ferguson.

"But our opponents are not scarecrows. They will definitely make adjustments in the second half. They will strengthen their offense and have more offensive methods. It is not enough to defend only Chen Yingxiong..."

Ferguson began to tell everyone the issues that should be paid attention to in the second half. Basically, the core meaning is one, that is, Liverpool's counterattack in the second half will be very frenzied, with various methods, especially the two wings.In order for Liverpool to score, Manchester United's defense in the second half had to pay more attention to other Liverpool players.

After all, no one dares to underestimate those Liverpool players. They can play the main force in a team like Manchester United alone.

※ ※ ※

Meanwhile, in the Liverpool dressing room.Liverpool manager Martin O'Neill was also telling everyone what to do in the second half.

He didn't criticize Chen Yingxiong's recklessness in the first half. On the contrary, he asked the team to cooperate with Chen Yingxiong to do so.

At least for the first 10 minutes of the second half.

Because he discovered the benefits of Chen Yingxiong's doing so, that is, it can help the team save a lot of energy as a whole.

Because the offense has become Chen Yingxiong's business alone. The others only need to pass the ball to him, and they don't even need to run. They just watch from behind after passing the ball.

In this way, naturally, it will not consume much energy.

For Liverpool, which has one less man to attack wildly, it is very important to be able to save energy.In this way, it will not collapse due to lack of energy in the last 15 minutes of the game.

In fact, Chen Yingxiong's approach is not the right way, and it is strictly prohibited in many teams.But Martin O'Neill has the courage and guts to affirm Chen Yingxiong's actions, and openly demand the cooperation of the whole team.

The most surprising thing is that no one in the entire Liverpool team expressed dissent.

If this scene is seen by outsiders, I don't know how to evaluate Liverpool.

Chen Yingxiong's status in Liverpool can be seen now.Many people are sure that after Gerrard retires, Chen Yingxiong must be the new banner of Liverpool. If he can stay in Liverpool, his final achievement and status will surpass Gerrard and stand side by side with legends like Dalglish.

When the two teams battled wits and courage in the locker room, the guests and commentators were also discussing the first half.

First of all, they also admitted that they were deceived by Ferguson's performance. This old man is still the one who refuses to admit defeat, and does everything possible to win the game.

Then they also believed that Ferguson's approach had an effect.

Everyone saw the situation in the first half, and now Liverpool is indeed at a disadvantage.

"The situation is really not good for Liverpool... They are behind and have one less man, which is a heavy blow to their morale..."

"The biggest problem is that Liverpool were deceived by Manchester United. No one in them saw through Ferguson's conspiracy... I think this fact will have a very bad impact on Liverpool. If they can't get out of this emotion If you pull yourself out, I'm afraid it will bring disastrous consequences to the team."

"Chen Yingxiong's fury at the last moment of the first half did not bring Liverpool a goal. It shows that Chen Yingxiong alone is not enough. No matter how good Chen Yingxiong is, he also needs the cooperation of his teammates. I think Martin O'Neill should be in Criticized Chen Yingxiong's approach during the halftime break, and rearranged tactics to allow the team to return to normal offensive routines..."

These experts have provided advice and advice for Liverpool, showing their profound knowledge.

But no one thought that after the start of the second half of the game, there would be such a situation...

※ ※ ※

"Liverpool has not changed from the first half! Chen Yingxiong still dominates the team's offense alone. As long as Liverpool has the ball, the ball will be passed to Chen Yingxiong's feet in the end. And Chen Yingxiong doesn't care where he is. Foot shot!"

"How can Liverpool win this game?"

"Maybe Liverpool have given up on this game? Anyway, with their lead, even if they lose to Manchester United, it's not a big deal. In the end, it won't affect the team's prospects of winning the championship... Instead of playing against Manchester United in this game Fighting to the death, it is better to save some energy to win the next game..."

Martin O'Neill doesn't see it that way.

Liverpool must win this game, not for an unbeaten season, nor for securing the league title.

Even if Liverpool won the league championship before this game, this game cannot be lost.

For a long time, the game between Liverpool and Manchester United has not been as simple as three points or zero points.

Manchester United will not be willing to lose to Liverpool, and Liverpool also do not want to lose to Manchester United at home.

This is about the dignity of the two teams.

Liverpool is going to dominate the European team, how can Manchester United be defeated at home?
So no matter what the price is, this game must be won!

Although Martin O'Neill didn't have any Liverpool blood in his body before coaching Liverpool, this does not prevent him from demanding himself as a "KOP" after becoming Liverpool's coach.

Many people will think that he let Chen Yingxiong shoot is a waste of offensive opportunities.

Even if someone can see that this will save Liverpool's energy, they think this is Martin O'Neill's real purpose.

Actually they were all wrong.

Martin O'Neill is not just for the rest of Liverpool players, the most important reason is that he believes in Chen Yingxiong.He believes that Chen Yingxiong can always score with so many shots.

This kind of belief is actually superstitious.

But Martin O'Neill didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Others are unwilling to believe in their own players, or they are not superstitious about their own players, because no player can make them superstitious to this point.But Chen Yingxiong can.

He stood on the sidelines with his arms crossed, quietly watching Chen Yingxiong who was constantly raising his hands for the ball and then shooting.

※ ※ ※

Ferguson was surprised by Liverpool's performance in the second half.

He really didn't expect that Martin O'Neill not only didn't stop Chen Yingxiong from doing things like this, but even encouraged Chen Yingxiong to do so...

Is he crazy?This approach will only destroy the integrity of Liverpool's offense, and make every attack of Liverpool fall into the point of individual combat.

What good is this approach?
No matter how powerful Chen Yingxiong is, can he deal with our entire defense line alone?Even if he can deal with our entire defense line, can he still be an enemy of the entire Manchester United team?

Ferguson frowned. His experience and his understanding of O'Neill told him that O'Neill was a very cautious person, and he seldom made such bold and risky moves.

Now he has done such an abnormal thing.

There must be something wrong...

But what could be wrong?

Ferguson was puzzled.

Could it be that Martin O'Neill himself was confused?

At present, this may be the biggest.

Even if Ferguson believed in his players, he would not believe it to this point.Manchester United has always emphasized the overall.

Therefore, he couldn't understand Martin O'Neill's superstition towards Chen Yingxiong, and he preferred to believe that Martin O'Neill was forced into confusion by the situation of the game.

Do you mess yourself up?
That's good.
