Chapter 247 Demon Slayer ([-])

Due to the strengthening of Liverpool's offense, this has greatly weakened Manchester United's offensive momentum, but Manchester United's defense is not easy to bully. Although George and Owen desperately demanded movement and looked for opportunities to shoot, they were repeatedly resolved by Manchester United's defense.

During this period, the most outstanding performance was Manchester United's goalkeeper Barthez, who made a high jump to resist. In just 10 minutes, Barthez's performance was absolutely world-class, and even made a Banksy save to block Owen.

If Barthez hadn't made the mistake at the beginning of the game, then Barthez would definitely be Ferguson's darling now, but that mistake was too serious. Although Barthez performed very well, it only dispelled Ferguson's idea of ​​replacing Barthez during the intermission.Ferguson is now determined to send Barthez away after the end of this season.

The two sides fought against each other, and at the same time showed the defensive strength of both sides. Manchester United wanted to equalize the score as soon as possible. All the offensive process was not procrastinated at all. The ball was quickly passed to the midfielder, and then passed to the striker to complete the shot.Liverpool's offense is used to George, Irving, and Kewell's fast offense, so it takes very little time to complete the offense.

In this way, the entire game process became more exciting and exciting. The ball was still in Dudek's hands half a minute ago, and half a minute later, Barthez might have made a save.Such a wonderful and hot game immediately made the fans hooked.

Although the offense of both sides was very sharp, the defense of both sides was still very strong, at least they didn't give the opponent's striker any chance, so some of the scenes on the court were just exciting, but the second goal was delayed.

Finally, as the referee blew the whistle to end the first half of the game, in the end Liverpool temporarily led Manchester United with a score of 1:0 by virtue of George's goal, ending the first half of the game.

George followed his teammates back to the locker room, immediately sat on a chair, took the soda sent by the assistants, and began to drink wildly.George was exhausted, he kept running for the ball, and had to compare his strength with Ferdinand from time to time. As a result, his physical strength was naturally consumed quickly.

Now George doesn't even have the mind to talk, he just wants to take a good rest and try his best to recover as much physical strength as possible during the short 15-minute intermission.In fact, not only George, but the other teammates are also sitting on chairs and resting one by one at this time. Obviously, although they only played for one half, the attack frequency of both sides is very fast, which naturally accelerates the consumption of physical energy.

Lao Bei walked into the locker room and saw that the players were sweating profusely, drinking water and resting with their eyes closed. He knew that the players were exhausted physically.In fact, you don't need to look at Lao Bei to know. After all, the two sides played fiercely in the first half of the game, and it is impossible not to consume physical energy.

It's hard for Lao Bei to say anything about it. After all, the situation on the field is like that. Lao Bei also wants Liverpool players to control the ball, learn from the Bianconeri, and advance steadily and slowly.But after all, Manchester United is the overlord of the Premier League, a wealthy team, stronger than Liverpool, and it is difficult for Liverpool to control the rhythm of the game.

After all, Manchester United's counterattack was too crazy, even if Liverpool wanted to slow down, there was no way.However, there is one thing that somewhat comforts Lao Bei, that is, so far, at least Liverpool is ahead of Manchester United, and to believe that Manchester United players are the same will definitely consume a lot of physical energy.

"Okay, boys, I'm proud of your performance in the first half. You were so outstanding. I can say in a responsible manner that in the Premier League, we can play against the mighty Manchester United, regardless of defense. Only Liverpool, not even Arsenal."

Hearing Old Bei's words, George and the others just looked at Old Bei and didn't say anything. Everyone knew very well that there was going to be a second half game that was more intense than the first half, and now the best choice was to rest and recover a little more energy.

Seeing the players' reactions, Lao Bei also smiled and didn't complain that the players didn't respond to his words. After all, what the players are doing at the moment is what Lao Bei most wants to see.

"Okay, I believe everyone understands that the second half will definitely be more intense than the first half. Since this is the case, you don't need to say anything, just recover a little more energy. Now I will arrange the tactics for the second half."

"Sammy, in the second half, you still need to strengthen your guard against Ruud. If you can, you can learn from Mario how to be ugly. Damn, doesn't he like to jump up and head the ball, doesn't he like to jump up and head the ball? If this is the case, you can wait for him to jump up, avoid the referee, and then give me a hard hit after him, a few more times, I think he can still jump up!"

Speaking of this, Lao Bei's eyes couldn't help but sparkle, and his expression became very treacherous.This made George, Irving and others feel very puzzled after hearing Lao Bei's words and expressions. Is this still the polite head coach?
"You heard me right, I just want you to use small means, don't overestimate, unless you don't want the championship, unless you don't want to have this match." Seeing Hypia looking at him with a puzzled expression, Old Bei immediately gritted his teeth and said fiercely.

At this time, Hypia finally knew that the head coach was not joking with him. Although it was a bit unkind to do so, Hypia still nodded fiercely, expressing that he knew what to do.

As an old player, Hyypia naturally knows that what kind of shit chivalry and shit gentlemanly demeanor are ridiculous at this time. The game is for victory. As long as you can win, it is the most normal thing to play tricks and give up a little professional ethics.

Thinking of this, Hyypia couldn't help but smirked, thinking of how he should give Ruud a few dirty tricks in the second half of the game to let the opponent know how good he is.Thinking of the painful expression on the other party's face, Hypia couldn't help but smirked.

As a central defender, although Hypia doesn't usually play dirty, it doesn't mean that Hypia can't. You must know that any central defender has a lot of tricks when it comes to playing dirty.

Seeing Hypia nodding, George and the others laughed inexplicably, and everyone suddenly felt that the temperature in the entire locker room had dropped several degrees.Looking at the head coach Lao Bei who was also smirking, everyone swallowed their saliva involuntarily.

Damn it, the head coach and the captain usually can't tell, but I didn't expect them to be sinister. I have to be more careful in the future, and don't offend these two people easily, otherwise, I'm afraid I won't die no matter what.At this moment, all Liverpool players couldn't help but think to themselves.

"Mario, it's the same with you in the second half of the game. Be aggressive, don't give me a kick like a girl, hesitate, be decisive, kick as you should, shovel as you should, and don't be muddy. You treat this game as your game when you were in the Argentine River Plate team, and play me according to the atmosphere of the Argentine game. Even if the opponent wants to make trouble, don't be afraid, kill him for me. You must know that this is the home of our Liverpool. There are more than 6 Liverpool players here. Fans, I don’t believe that they rushed to Anfield to be arrogant with us, otherwise, I promise our lovely fans, they will never let them go back to Manchester.”

You must know that the atmosphere of the Argentine game is very hot. There are actually players singled out or group fights, and even fan riots are common occurrences. This shows the hot atmosphere of the Argentine League.

"Hey!" Hearing the head coach's words, Yepes was more terrifying than Hyypia, and he smiled sinisterly, nodding to show that he knew what to do.You must know that Yepes is originally a South American player. Yepes prefers the hot atmosphere of the South American league. In the first half of the game, Yepes was worried that he made too many fouls and played aggressively.

Now that I have Lao Bei's words, everything becomes much easier. Now I can release all my energy. After all, I am committing a foul according to the order. I put Lao Bei's words here, so I have nothing to worry about.

Seeing Yepes' smirk, all the Liverpool players immediately classified Yepes into the ranks of Benitez and Hyypia.

"George, Michael, the task for the two of you is very simple. Let me run non-stop in the opponent's penalty area, and let me exhaust Manchester United's defenders. If any of you have no physical fitness, let me change immediately. I don't believe that Manchester United's defenders are all iron."

George and Irving nodded to show that they knew that Irving didn't care. After all, it was a tactic arranged by the head coach. As players, they had to implement it resolutely.George didn't care much, because in George's mind, if he wanted to better break through the defense of Sylvester and Ferdinand, he had to keep running, exhausting them both.When the physical energy of the two of them is almost exhausted, the reaction will naturally slow down at that time, and my chance will come.Besides, George is very confident in his physical fitness. George believes that he will never be replaced because of physical exhaustion.

"Hehe, of course, if the opponent's defender cooperates, you will also forget about the bullshit competitive spirit. If you can fall, you will scream at me and fall down. You must not drag your feet. If you don't send off the opponent's defender with a red and yellow card, you must also win the chance to set the ball. Damn, I don't believe that relying on Barthez to go crazy can really block many of our free kick opportunities."

When Old Bei finished speaking, all the Liverpool players couldn't help laughing. Obviously, when Old Bei said that Barthez was crazy, everyone thought of the goal that Barthez "assisted" George in the first half of the game at the same time.

Like Liverpool's dressing room, in the Manchester United dressing room not far away, Ferguson was also roaring at the Manchester United players.

"Look at what you did in the first half of the fight. You still look a bit like the overlords of the Premier League. You are behind Liverpool. God, you know, last season, this was simply impossible."

Speaking of this, Ferguson is depressed. He has met Liverpool before, and it seems that Liverpool is not so strong. Why this new season, every time he encounters Liverpool, it always feels like Manchester United is being beaten by Liverpool. It seems that Manchester United has not won a few times with Liverpool this season.

Thinking of this, Ferguson became depressed. This is unreasonable. A strong Manchester United is still a strong Manchester United. They can easily win any opponent they encounter.But why did he become soft-footed when he met Liverpool? It's no good. Could it be that Liverpool is really Manchester United's nemesis, and is George really his own nemesis?Thinking of this, Ferguson couldn't help but feel a little cold. It seems that the rise of Liverpool means that Manchester United will no longer be able to dominate the Premier League as before.Because at this time in the Premier League, there is still a Liverpool that can compete with Manchester United.

"Luther, take a look at what you saw in the last fight. The non-stop headers, the constant headers, what do you think you are, the traditional post center, waiting for your teammates to feed the ball. You can retreat to get the ball. I haven't seen you retreat to get the ball even once. Aren't you known as the king of the small penalty area? What did you do in the first half?"

Hearing Ferguson's words, Van Nistelrooy really wanted to cry, but it wasn't entirely your arrangement to do this by yourself in the first half. Otherwise, would I have done this? I am not used to this tactic at all.Who doesn't know that you are a tyrant, do you feel disobedient to the tactics you arranged? I want to retreat to get the ball, and then break through and shoot, but I dare not. God only knows what you will do to me when you see me retreat to get the ball.

Although wronged, Van Nistelrooy did not dare to say a word. If Ferguson was the tyrant of the locker room, he would not dare to say anything in the face of coach Ferguson's accusations, let alone Ferguson is still in a rage.If Van Nistelrooy dared to say something, then Ferguson would definitely be rude, and Van Nistelrooy's fate would definitely be miserable.

"Leo, Sylvester, look at what you two were doing in the first half. How could you let the opponent's striker run around in our penalty area to shoot easily. If it weren't for Barthez's quick reaction, I'm afraid the opponent would have scored a goal."

Seeing that Van Nistelrooy dared not make a sound, Ferguson immediately turned his gun and aimed at Ferdinand and Sylvester.

At this moment, the two finally realized what Fanny felt just now, and it was really hard to describe.

It's not that you said don't foul easily and give the opponent the chance of free kicks and set kicks. You said that the opponent's set kicks and free kicks are still very threatening. In such an important game, you can't give the opponent any chance.

What about Barthez, if the damn Frenchman hadn't gone crazy and "assisted" the opponent, now we Manchester United would not be behind.

Even though they thought this way, they didn't dare to say it. Both of them knew very well that this was Ferguson's way of shirking responsibility. In other words, Ferguson would never think that his arrangements would make mistakes.

In just 15 minutes, the Manchester United players were yelled at one by one by Ferguson, but there was one person who escaped Ferguson's accusation, and that was Barthez who made a low-level mistake.

It's not that Ferguson doesn't resent Barthez, it's just because Ferguson knows that Barthez's current state is very brave and outstanding. Even if he is dissatisfied with Barthez now, he can't say it out, lest Barthez's mentality be affected by him, and it will affect his performance in the game.

However, Barthez only temporarily avoided Ferguson's scolding. One thing is certain, that is, after the game, if Manchester United can really stage a big reversal and beat Liverpool, everything will be fine.If Manchester United loses the game, Barthez, who "assisted" George, is definitely the biggest scapegoat, and he will definitely be accused by his teammates, fans and everyone in the media.

I don't know what to say about Bathez. After seeing everyone being yelled at by Baatez, he didn't say anything about himself. Baatez couldn't help but secretly proud.It must be his wonderful performance in the game, which made Ferguson very satisfied.

Thinking of this, Barthez couldn't help fantasizing that he would become Manchester United's best player in the home game, but he forgot that it was Barthez himself who gave George an "assist".Such a major mistake cannot be covered up by Barthez's brilliant performance.
