317 The price of arrogance
Unknowingly, the first half of the game ended with a whistle. After a fierce 45-minute score, Liverpool temporarily ended the first half with a one-goal advantage.

Old Bei seemed very happy about leading the opponent for the time being, but he didn't dare to be careless. After all, the opponent was Manchester United, and there were still 45 minutes in the game. Such a long time was enough for Manchester United to equalize the score, or even overtake.

Therefore, when Lao Bei came to the locker room, he first praised the players' performance in the first half, and then began to arrange the tactics for the second half with a serious face.

"Although we are temporarily ahead of our opponents, Manchester United will never just watch the 1-0 score until the end of the game. In the second half, no matter what the reason is, the only thing that is certain is that Manchester United will definitely launch a crazy attack in the second half. If this is the case, then we have to rearrange our tactics."

George and others attached great importance to Old Bei's words. After all, no Liverpool player would think that a one-goal lead would ensure victory in the entire game, let alone the mighty Manchester United this time.

"In the second half of the game, Manchester United will definitely launch a crazy attack. At this time, the opponent's striker is definitely a big problem. After all, you promise to give Dudek the greatest support and resolve any attack that can threaten the goal. Dissolve it outside the penalty area."

"Sammy, in the second half, you will be in charge of the opponent's Dutchman Ruud van Nistelrooy, especially this guy's header and finishing kick. At the same time, you must also pay attention to when Ruud van Nistelrooy takes the ball with his back to the goal, you must pay attention to it, and don't open a small angle for the opponent to shoot. At that time, Dudek's line of sight is blocked, and this kind of shot is very threatening. When necessary, you can take a decisive step. Rather than give the opponent any threatening shots. Of course, it is best not to take the card. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, boss!" Hypia had no opinion on Lao Bei's arrangement. After all, Hypia was responsible for guarding Ruud Van Nistelrooy throughout the first half. Lao Bei just said this to remind Hypia not to be careless because of the lead.

If Hypia was a young player, he might be careless, but Hyypia is an old Liverpool player with rich experience in the game, so naturally he would not make these low-level mistakes.

"Mario, your body and speed are good, so you can show me Rooney, who is the opponent. But you have to pay attention, this kid is rated as the twin star of England together with George. In the training match, you have learned how good George is, so you must look down on the opponent. This kid is fast, strong enough, explosive, and has some good long-range shots. If you can’t hold it, let me put it on him, understand?”

Speaking of Rooney, Old Bei had to remind Yepes that although the opponent is young, his strength is definitely not weak, and he must not underestimate his opponent.Regarding Rooney, Old Bei did a very detailed research, and finally came to the conclusion that: except for a little lack of mental quality, physical fitness and speed, he is no worse than George.Of course, if fighting is counted, Rooney is also not George's opponent. I am afraid that few people in the Premier League can be George's opponent in a heads-up situation.

Yepes didn't speak, but nodded fiercely to express his understanding.In the team's training, Yepes often played against George.After being ravaged by George countless times, Yepes finally understood that age is not a measure of a person's strength, at least not in the Premier League.What's more, Rooney is still a twin star with the same name as George. With this alone, Yepes can't underestimate it, or dare not.

"In the midfield, Haman, your position is retreating a little bit. Be a swingman. It depends on the situation on the field. If necessary, you can retreat to the penalty area and temporarily act as a defender. Steven, when Haman retreats, fill in Haman's position, give full play to the function of your mixer, and disturb the midfield for me. The better. Assists, the current team does not need to attack, but needs your defense, even if it is set kicks and corner kicks, there is nothing for your defenders, all you need to do is to stay in the backcourt for me. My request is very simple, that is to defend, defend with all your strength, withstand Manchester United's crazy 10 minutes, and then it is our turn to counterattack."

Hearing Old Bei's arrangement, everyone nodded to express their understanding. After all, this kind of thing is not uncommon. Every time they encounter Manchester United and Arsenal, Liverpool will defend once or twice from time to time, making the opponent lose their temper.

Indeed, Liverpool's overall strength may not be as good as Arsenal and Manchester United, but when it comes to defense, when Liverpool wants to defend, it is definitely the first in the Premier League. Both Arsenal and Manchester United have suffered from Liverpool's full defense.

"Of course, this is also our home court. We can't let Manchester United play like this and play half-court offensive drills directly. Kewell, George, Michael, you three will stay in the midfield for me. If Manchester United dares to press the big game, if you have a chance, you will attack me and let Manchester United take a good lead in our Liverpool's fast attack. Attention, the three of you, Ferdinand is undoubtedly the world's top in terms of central defenders, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the Premier League is the best. But only one Ferdinand is useless , Whether it is Neville, Sylvester, or O'Shea, these three are not real central defenders. Although these three can be central defenders, especially O'Shea and Sylvester, they seem to have done a good job. But after all, they are not central defenders, so when counterattacking, the three of you try to attract or bypass Ferdinand as much as possible, and rush to another central defender. No matter who the other Manchester United central defender is in the second half, except Ferdinand, you three will catch him for me.

"Of course, Anfield is our home court for Liverpool, and we don't need to be afraid of Manchester United. We just need to resist the opponent's crazy attack at the beginning. This does not mean that we gave up our offense and started to defend with all our strength. In the second half, everyone pay attention to my order. When I think it is time, you will press me hard and let the opponent experience our Liverpool's offense."

While Lao Bei was arranging tactics for Liverpool in the second half, in the locker room not far from Liverpool's dressing room, Sir Alex Ferguson was playing the role of his hair dryer, cursing from the forward, passing through the midfield and defenders, and finally scolding the American Howard.

The Manchester United players looked angry and flushed, and from time to time they ran out a sentence or two of shit, rubbish, old jazz, everyone was worried about the old jazz, and I don't know if Ferguson's heart will bear it.

During the 15-minute half-time break, Ferguson took 10 minutes to serve each player in turn. Every player did not forget, and enjoyed and understood the power of a hair dryer.

But no matter what, the game still has to be played. After 10 minutes of scolding, Ferguson had to stop. Although Ferguson was still very angry at this time, after all, there was still a second half to play. I couldn’t forget to explain the tactics of the second half of the game just because I was so fucking happy for a while.

Five minutes did not allow Ferguson to lay out the tactics for the second half in detail. Ferguson simply emphasized Liverpool's fast attack, and then asked the players to attack, attack, and continue to attack.

The tactical arrangement of the coaches of the two sides made the second half of the game a one-sided situation. Liverpool prepared to defend the first 10 minutes with all their strength, while Manchester United prepared to version the score in the first 10 minutes, so Manchester United immediately formed a situation where Liverpool was playing against Liverpool.Every attack of Manchester United can make Liverpool fans exclaim involuntarily. It seems that Manchester United may equalize the score at any time.

"Oh~ long shot, so dangerous, Rooney's long shot almost scored. The second half of the game has started for 5 minutes. During this time, Manchester United is almost pressing Liverpool. Manchester United seems to have the possibility of equalizing the score at any time. I think it is time for Mr. Benitez to need the team to attack, so as to relieve the pressure on the defense."

Although Manchester United's offense is very crazy, the defense has not been forgotten. After all, Liverpool has three ultra-fast and skilled offensive players, which are most suitable for Liverpool's current defensive and counterattack style.

No, Kewell received a pass from Gerrard, and before he took the ball far, he was stopped by the experienced Neville with a very beautiful sliding tackle.Ferdinand on the side just received the ball and passed it to captain Keane.

Looking at the situation on the field, Keane had no choice but to pass the ball to the Portuguese, whom he had never liked very much.No way, although Keane doesn't like Ronaldo very much, after all, Ronaldo still has outstanding strength. Otherwise, Ferguson would not have spent more than 1000 million to bring Ronaldo to Old Trafford and train Ronaldo as Beckham's successor.

Although Keane seldom passed the ball to Ronaldo during this period, Ronaldo's running position was indeed very good. Every time Keane took the ball, he found that Ronaldo was in a good position.Although he didn't like Ronaldo very much, Keane still passed the ball to Ronaldo who was in a better position for the benefit of the team.

It's a pity that C. Luo has not realized his embarrassing position in the Manchester United team. After receiving the pass from Keane, C. Luo continued his wonderful and gorgeous personal performance, constantly making breakthroughs with feints, and cutting inside to shoot.In just two minutes, Ronaldo completed three shots without passing the ball.

You know, Rooney had at least one excellent opportunity when C. Ronaldo took three shots, because Liverpool players were attracted by C. Ronaldo at that time. If C. Ronaldo passed the ball to Rooney at this time, Rooney has at least eight possible goals.It's a pity that Ronaldo couldn't see the two forwards Rooney and Ruud van Nistelrooy, and continued his "arrogant" dribbling.

Finally, C. Luo's arrogance angered Carragher and Ferguson. Carragher put C. Luo in a very brutal way. Although he was late for a yellow card, Carragher also told C. Luo in his own way. Your skills and speed are good, but your body is not good. Don't be too arrogant, otherwise, I will abolish you.

Sitting on the ground, feeling the pain in my right foot that spread all over my body, I am afraid that this game will not be able to continue.However, when he saw the referee showing Carragher a yellow card warning, C. Ronaldo was a little confused. Such a brutal foul almost negated his own violation. The referee did not send the opponent off the field with a red card, but only gave a yellow card warning. In the eyes of C. Ronaldo, this is simply unreasonable.

But before Ronaldo could react, Ferguson, who was also irritated by Ronaldo's arrogance, immediately waved his hand and replaced Ronaldo with Solskjaer. Even when Ronaldo left the field, Ferguson didn't even look at Ronaldo once.

You must know that Ferguson is very angry at this time. The team is already behind, and what the team needs most at present is to try to tie the score.

For such a player who likes to perform himself and doesn't obey the arrangements, Ferguson, who insists on the iron and blood policy, will naturally no longer be polite and tolerate Ronaldo's performance.Not to mention that C. Luo may not be able to continue the game now. Even if he can continue, it's okay. Ferguson will definitely not continue to tolerate C. Luo continuing his "wonderful" performance on the court.

Although the second half of the game had just started less than 8 minutes, Ferguson still used up a substitution in his hands.
