Chapter 176 Red Army VS Red Devils ([-])

"Oh~ just a little bit, George was able to complete a beautiful volley barb shot. Looking at the indifferent Barthez, I really don't know what Barthez is thinking. Is he really so sure that George's shot will miss the goal, so he ignores George's shot at all. If it happens, if the ball hits the goal, the consequences will be disastrous."

Although George missed the shot just now, the Manchester United fans in the audience still gave their applause generously to George, the enemy.For fans, they naturally hope to see a wonderful goal. Although the goal just now was missed, it does not mean that Manchester United fans will be stingy with their applause.For Manchester United fans, at Old Trafford, such shots are almost rare. George's shot did not score, but it is worthy of praise in spirit.

"Damn it, you all have a look at what you have done. Cheer me up, and Barthez, if you are tired and don't want to compete, just tell me, and I'll replace you right away."

It was a shame for a proud Ferguson to hear United fans applauding George.The fans gave their opponents applause, what does it mean? It means that their fans are very dissatisfied with their team. This made the proud Ferguson very upset and yelled at the team on the field.

"Damn it." Seeing that his shot failed to score, George couldn't help cursing. If the goal just now could be scored, George is sure that the front pages of the major newspapers in the UK tomorrow will definitely be him and this goal.It's a pity that all of this is based on the goal just now. If you don't score, don't even think about it.Thinking of this, George looked at Ferdinand dejectedly. It was this guy's interference that caused him to miss such a beautiful shot.

Looking at George's complaining eyes, Ferdinand couldn't express his pain.We are not teammates of the same team. You are an offensive player and I am a defensive player. Now that the two sides are playing, there is no reason for me not to guard against you, and let you shoot goals happily.

The game continued, and the Manchester United team continued their unhurried style of play, slowly passing the ball back and forth, sometimes passing a long pass to Van Nistelrooy, and Van Nistelrooy then diverted the header to his teammates, quietly looking for opportunities.It's a pity that Liverpool has been led by Manchester United by one goal, so naturally they dare not be careless. At least so far, there have been no loopholes in the defense.

If Manchester United is playing positional warfare, then Liverpool is playing a typical defensive counterattack, and this counterattack is a bit fast. Usually, Harman and Gerrard pass directly to Kewell, George and Owen.

With George, Owen and Kewell's quick counterattacks, the two full-backs of Manchester United did not dare to press on. If they did, maybe Liverpool would score a goal when they made a quick counterattack. After all, both full-backs went up, leaving only Ferdinand and Sylvester in the backcourt. Facing a three-on-two situation, it was still Liverpool who scored. Under normal circumstances, there is definitely a 70.00% chance of scoring.Thinking of this, Manchester United's two full-backs did not dare to step forward and assist.

Although no more goals were scored in the game, the game between the two sides was very exciting. Tactics such as technical flow, stream of consciousness, positional warfare, anti-counterfeiting, etc. all appeared on the Old Trafford stadium, which made the fans on the scene very hooked.

Unknowingly, time has passed, and the first half of the game ended with Gerrard's 30-meter long shot, which was confiscated by Barthez.Neither side was reconciled. Manchester United wanted to expand the score, and Liverpool wanted to equalize, but there was no way. They could only wait 15 minutes before returning to the pitch for a good fight.

When George and the others returned to the locker room, they were not chatting and laughing as usual, but were panting heavily while drinking soda.Both teams are giants in the Premier League. Although it was only half-time, the players on both sides were exhausted due to the fierce competition.

Now George and the others are no longer in the mood to joke and chat with each other like they used to. They just sit together quietly without saying a word, trying their best to recover more physical strength during the short intermission.

"Damn it, playing halftime against Manchester United feels even more tiring than playing overtime with other teams." George said to Irving beside him. Hearing George's words, Owen didn't even have the strength to go back. He just nodded in agreement.

"Okay, please pay attention, I know you are very tired now, so let me make a long story short. Everyone performed very well in the first half. As for Manchester United's goal, I can only say it is a pity. In the second half, everyone must cheer up. George, Owen and Kewell, the three of you are fast and have good skills at your feet. Pass the opponent in a short time, try to pass the opponent to complete the shot before the opponent player returns in time, is there a problem?"

Hearing what Old Bei said, the three of George nodded to show they knew.

"Steven, in the second half, you try to reduce your offense as much as possible. Of course, if you have the opportunity, you can still shoot from a long distance. You stand in front of Harman, start to act as a defensive midfielder, strengthen your physical fitness, try to mess up the midfielder, and then use your precise footwork to pass long passes to Owen and the three of them. I don't believe that Manchester United's defenders can be so physically fit. Let's see how long they can last."

"Head, don't worry, I know what to do." Gerald nodded and said. For Gerald, this kind of task is very simple, and he has done it before.

"Rise, as for you to reduce the forward assists as much as possible in the second half, after all, the opponent still has Beckham. That guy's pass is too accurate, and Ruud van Nistelrooy's damn Dutchman's header ability is also good. In short, I don't care about other things. Your first task is to prevent Beckham from dying and try to reduce the number of his passes. Is there any problem?"

"No problem." Riise patted his chest for reassurance. Riise was still very confident in defending Beckham.After all, Beckham is not a technical player, and it is not so easy to break through himself.In addition, Beckham's speed is not very fast, even if he is broken by Beckham, Riise believes that he can catch up with Beckham in a short time and continue to stalk him to death.

Anyway, the task given by Old Bei to Riise is not to prevent Beckham from passing the ball, which is obviously impossible.As long as Riise can reduce the number of passes by Beckham as much as possible, it is very simple. As long as Riise can entangle Beckham, the number of passes by Beckham will naturally decrease.

"Giggs' speed is very fast and his breakthrough is very sharp. Carragher, your task is not to assist. I need you to treat yourself as a central defender and nail Giggs firmly to me. Is there any problem?"

"No problem." Can it be no problem? In this world, I am afraid that no one can pat himself on the chest and say that he can completely prevent Giggs from dying.But Carragher couldn't help it. After all, the positions of the two were matched, and Lao Bei still confessed that if he dared to slander, he might be sitting on the bench in the next game.

Thinking of this, Carragher made up his mind that he must teach Giggs a good lesson in the second half of the game. Even if he can't prevent him, he must stop Giggs for fouling himself. In short, it will not make Giggs feel better.

"Also, you have to pay attention, this guy Beckham's free kick is very powerful, you must not give the opponent a free kick in a dangerous situation, you know."
