Midfielder.

Chapter 151

One wrong move and the whole game is lost, not to mention the Manchester United team has already made countless wrong moves.Ferguson stood on the sidelines and watched his players continue to run desperately, but the hope of winning has gradually moved away from Manchester United, although they only need to score one more goal to drag the game into overtime.

But what about dragging into overtime?Even now, Manchester United still has not been able to grasp the initiative on the field, and Porto is the real master.

This is an unacceptable, yet powerless reality to refute, even if Ferguson has tried to change this embarrassing situation for Manchester United.

But all his calculations have been in vain from the very beginning. From the first game, Manchester United has never really taken the initiative.

Tactical arrangements, personnel adjustments, on-the-spot responses, the status of the players, all of these, Manchester United has fallen behind the Porto team.

Those crazy Portuguese want to win the game more than they do. Even when they are behind twice, they can still attack desperately.

These Porto people never thought that they would lose from the second the game started. It was this strong nerve that made them have the last laugh.

You know, those tough qualities used to be the backbone of the Manchester United team, but at the moment, they are facing this kind of toughness from the bottom of their hearts.

Although the game is not over yet, Manchester United can't muster much courage to fight their opponents. Even Ferguson himself has lost confidence.

No matter what excuses there are to justify, there is no way to cover up Manchester United's decline. This game has never been under their control.

Losing again to the young man who was more than 20 years younger than himself, Ferguson was not as angry as in the previous game. Perhaps at this moment Ferguson had heard the footsteps of the pursuers behind him, so clearly.Maybe this football world is no longer the world of him and that old French guy.

These young latecomers have gradually caught up, and an old guy like him may not be the master of the football world in the near future.

Ferguson really doesn't know what kind of challenge will be waiting for him if the guy really wants to take charge of Chelsea next season.

Maybe the Premier League's two-horse race will turn into the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and the touch of blue from London will become Manchester United's rivals in the league.

Under the leadership of Ranieri, Chelsea can now bite Manchester United tightly. If it is replaced by the Portuguese, no one knows what will happen.

At least in these two games, Ferguson knew that he didn't take any advantage at all, and that every step he made fell into the opponent's calculations.

Although the old man can attribute these to Lin Yi's beastly performance, Mourinho's on-the-spot response did make him feel pressure.

Calmness, determination, and keen sense, the qualities of these first-class coaches, have all been perfectly reflected in the Portuguese.

More importantly, when commanding on the spot, he can adjust the emotions of the players on the field in the shortest time, and he is indeed very young.

Ferguson no longer knows what else he did when he was less than 40 years old, but at least he has not yet reached the pinnacle of European football.

But that guy has done it, who knows what he can do with the rest of his coaching years, even Ferguson can't see his future clearly.

The 1:1 score was dazzling, and the countdown on the big screen reminded the old Scottish man that Manchester United was only one step away from being eliminated.

Three years of investment of nearly 1.3 million pounds, in exchange for such a result, Ferguson can now feel the bitter taste surging in his mouth.

"Maybe it's time to rebuild... just don't know if the next builder will be me." This is a kind of helpless loss.

Although Ferguson's heart was full of frustration, he didn't show it on his face. He still stood on the sidelines, urging the team's offense with roars, even though the intermittent offense on the field seemed very weak, but Manchester United The fans and players of the team did not give up.

The score fell behind, but the diehard fans of Manchester United are still cheering for the team with shouts, at least in their opinion, Manchester United still has a chance.

Although the situation on the field is not dominant, these fans wearing Manchester United jerseys still believe that their Red Devils can create miracles!
This is the magic weapon of the Manchester United team in the Premier League. They have a hard bone that will never be broken. These fans believe in them, and they will definitely be able to!
When the score was equalized, Manchester United's momentum was indeed destroyed, but the shouts in the Old Trafford stadium made them start to attack again.

These guys don't want to give up yet, at least amidst such shouts, they don't want to give up, they want to defend Manchester United's last honor.

Even if they can drag this damn game into overtime, it's good, no matter what the final result is, at least they don't want to just lose like this.

Ruud van Nistelrooy desperately grabbed the point under the pull of Carvalho. Although this guy grabbed the header desperately, few people responded to the second point.

But at least the Dutchman is still working hard. He doesn't want to leave the Champions League in such a disheartened way. Giggs also continued to break through the side when facing Bosingwa's bullshit plaster defense. This desperately running Welshman is also making unremitting efforts.

Manchester United's most active player on the field was Cristiano Ronaldo, who came off the bench in the second half. This guy's breakthrough on the wing was the only performance that could win the cheers of the fans.

Although Valente had blocked the kid very fiercely, Ronaldo continued to break through with dexterous movements as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

Ronaldo played this game holding his breath. He didn't win the first game, but he didn't want to fail again in front of Lin Yi. He wanted to use this performance to prove to everyone that he was no worse than that kid, and he was nothing. Beckham's replacement, he is Cristiano Ronaldo.

With such an idea, it is extremely crazy for Ronaldo to be on the court. If Valente wants to stop this kid, I am afraid that the only way to go is to foul.

But Ronaldo, who was shoveled out of the sideline, still attacked Valente so fiercely, which also won him applause from Old Trafford.

Although the three people on the Manchester United forward line were desperate, the pipeline behind them was completely blocked, especially the midfield organizer Scholes, who was completely surrounded by Maniche and Costinha. Working together to kill, Maniche simply didn't let Jiangtou have a chance to get the ball easily.

yellow card? NO, that very fierce guy is not afraid of anything, he would rather bring his opponent down than give Scholes the space to pass the ball comfortably.

In the midfield competition, Maniche has overturned Scholes several times. Although the referee showed a yellow card, Maniche is still going his own way.

Anyway, Mourinho gave Maniche such a task to completely stare at the engine in Manchester United's frontcourt and use all available means.

For a guy as stubborn as Maniche, this is an order, and unless he is sent off, he will not stop this intrusion at all.

Novices like Fletcher and Djemba can't help Scholes at such a time, their experience is simply pitiful.

What's more important is that these two guys don't have such exquisite skills. They are more like pure engineers. If they want to do some delicate work, there is no way.

This slightly rough technique allows Fletcher and Djemba to rely on passing the ball to provide some help to the frontcourt. Thinking of others?It must have been a dream.

Even if Lin Yi withdraws to defend the two of them, it is estimated that these two guys will not be able to easily surpass others, they simply do not have the ability to make a strong breakthrough.

Ferguson probably didn't expect them to do anything, and with 30 minutes left in the second half, he replaced Djimba with Kleberson.

At this time, Sir Alex doesn't want to think about any defensive issues anymore. The midfielders are all guys who are skilled and can break through.

But after Kleberson came on the field, he was immediately entangled by Deco, and the two Brazilians fought on the field.

Anyway, Mourinho's purpose is only one, he wants to completely mess up the midfield, anyway, what Porto team is going to fight at this time is to counterattack quickly.

Now it doesn't matter what the three midfielders are strangled. Manchester United only needs to score. If they can't counterattack, no matter how good the defense is, it will be useless.

Fletcher was also replaced by Ferguson from the field 5 minutes after Djimba left the field with a look of frustration.With 25 minutes left in the game, Ferguson used up the last substitution. He threw Solskjaer on the field. Perhaps this was the last glimmer of hope for Sir Alex Ferguson.

When the Norwegian baby-faced killer made his debut, the whole Old Trafford stadium was cheering for him. Maybe this is the last expectation of those fans.

Maybe at this point in the game, Ferguson is still looking forward to a miracle, just like the big reversal they performed in the 99 Champions Cup final.

But putting the final hope of a comeback on a player who has missed nearly ten games, I really don't know if his injured knee can withstand it.

But looking at his bench, Ferguson may not be able to think of a better way. Although the Frenchman Saha is also on standby, at such a decisive moment, Ferguson may trust those direct descendants more than a foreign hire Bing, not to mention that guy may not work.

It's just that this mercenary was hand-picked by him. It might be the first time that Ferguson denied his vision of seeing people. The old man was already a little confused.

Ruud van Nistelrooy and Solskjaer played together in the forward line. This was Ferguson's last change, but Mourinho's reaction was also very fast. He immediately removed Alenichev and started again. Add a central defender to the back line and start to increase the defensive intensity.

Maniche's position has also been withdrawn deeper by him. Basically, the Porto team has changed from a 3-back formation to a formation similar to a 5-back formation.

At the same time, he moved Lin Yi's position to the side guarded by O'Shea, still putting pressure on Manchester United's defense on both sides. His last substitution was used up in the 78th minute of the game, but Murray Neo replaced McCarthy on the forward line, and replaced him with a striker.

In the attack, there is always a threat to the opponent, especially at the last moment. Mourinho does not want any surprises, and he has to attack.

Dalley, the Brazilian who had been rested for half a month due to injury, appeared at the last moment of the game, and he got a chance to score a single goal as soon as he came on the field.

As the team's top scorer, Dalley does not have McCarthy's strong physical fitness, but this guy's unique skill is flexible and changeable running positions.

When Manchester United's full line began to press heavily, Dalley was left with a large space behind him, and Porto's counterattack was here.

Now Manchester United is distressed that no one in their midfield can stand up and take over the rhythm of the game, but Porto has no such troubles at all.

After Dalley came on the field, the first pass was from Lin Yi, and this black-haired kid once again became the focus of the audience.

Because of Manchester United's aggressive forward pressure, the Porto team has retreated most of the players to the midfield to start intercepting. Lin Yi intercepted Bart's pass here, and not only interrupted, this kid was intercepting the ball at the same time. , pulling and pulling with the soles of his feet, causing Bart to lose his center of gravity.

Lin Yi once again showed his extremely weird lizard vision under the eyes of tens of thousands of people. At the position of the arc in the middle circle, Lin Yi insisted on putting the football between Bart's legs in a straight line. Going out, Brown and Gary Neville behind Bart didn't react at all.

One kick was close to 40 meters behind him. No one knows how this kid saw the gap. Anyway, when Brown reacted and turned around to chase, Dalley had already left him by at least 5 meters. Under the astonished eyes of tens of thousands of people, the Brazilians stood out.

The unlucky Howard can only choose to attack at this moment, but with his height and weight, it is basically impossible to stop Dalley outside the penalty area.

It was purely a one-on-one between the forward and the goalkeeper, and the battlefield was outside the penalty area. At this time, Howard didn't even have a chance to reach out to intercept.

The Brazilian flexibly twisted his crotch, shaking continuously, and a realistic fake move made Howard sit down on the turf directly, and Howard's open hands even touched Dalley's ankles. If he didn't catch it, he could only watch helplessly as his opponent threw himself away.

If the equalizer pushed Manchester United to the edge of a cliff, then the overtake would undoubtedly push the great Manchester United to the abyss of hell.

The roar of Old Trafford faded away as Dalley's push slid into the empty goal, leaving only tens of thousands of glazed-eyed United fans, their flags no longer waving, in televised footage Many people hold their hair tightly with their hands.

They couldn't believe what was happening, but the score on the big screen had been rewritten again, and they were reversed by those Portuguese again.

Just now they were confident that their team could overtake again and enter overtime with the same score, but at this moment, they were desperate.

The excited Dalley frantically waved the corner flag, and beside him was a group of equally crazy Porto players who had completed the conquest.

Lin Yi did not participate in such a celebration, he just walked to the sidelines, stood quietly beside Mourinho, pointed at those crazy guys and said.

"What we can do at home is the same at Old Trafford. Remember what you said, we must take us to Schalke proudly."

Mourinho looked at the sweaty black-haired boy in front of him, didn't say anything, just patted Lin Yi's shoulder heavily with his hands.

No need to promise anything, they will keep winning until the end, they will definitely go to Schalke, there is a game waiting for them.

2:1, there is no suspense in this score. In the last ten minutes of the remaining time, Manchester United even had only one long shot to hit the goal.

Even if they can equalize the score or even overtake it, it is useless. The Porto team has already scored two away goals, and it is impossible for another miracle to happen.

What's more, those Porto teams didn't give them this opportunity at all. From the beginning to the end of the game, Manchester United never controlled the situation.

When the whistle blew for the end of the game, only a few thousand Porto fans could be heard celebrating wildly in the entire Old Trafford stadium.

"This is a night for Porto. Manchester United's impact on the Champions League this time stopped at the 16-to-8 knockout round. I can only express regret."

This is the last sentence left by Manchester United's on-site commentator before leaving the microphone. He can only express regret, but there is no sense of surprise.

For Manchester United and Ferguson, this damn game means that they are about to usher in a fruitless season, and the real big four are empty.

But this game was a carnival night for those Porto people. At the end of the game, they ran wildly on the field. Even Mourinho was with the players at this time, pulling the Porto team. Flags were waving wantonly in Old Trafford.

On the opponent's turf, defeating a traditional giant with a budget five times his own, Mourinho has done everything he set before the season.

Now that it has been so crazy, is there anything else that can't be done?I am afraid that no one dares to predict the future of the Porto team.

Because of that serious-looking Mourinho and that crazy black-haired kid, they can completely turn all pre-match speculation into empty talk.

Looking at the black-haired boy who threw his jersey into the stands, Ferguson clenched his lips helplessly. This is really a joke made by God.

The little guy Ferguson valued the most, played two games in the way Ferguson was most looking forward to, but what he killed was Manchester United.

Damn, this joke is so fucking black, Ferguson just wants to wish those quarter-final teams good luck now, because that little madman is not crazy enough.

Who will be the next unlucky one?It is estimated that Ferguson will definitely say at this moment, that is none of my business, anyway, I have already been harmed by that kid.

Perhaps what Ferguson is thinking about most now is not only Lin Yi killing his Manchester United team, but also how expensive this kid will be when summer comes? £2000 million? ? ?Ferguson is also uncertain now, maybe that will be an unimaginable price for everyone.

(5:0, uh, I can only say that Real Madrid's midfielder is too weak, especially Ramos, not only lost, but also lost... look forward to the next meeting, anyway, Mourinho The goods will not admit defeat easily, and losing a game like this will only make this guy crazier.)
