Chapter 583 The old general makes another contribution!
"Damn it, Chelsea didn't take the wrong medicine, right?"

In the middle of the thunderous sound at Old Trafford, Ferguson stood in front of the home team coach's bench, looking at the opposing sides on the pitch in complete bewilderment.

The red jersey is the home team Manchester United, and the blue jersey is the visiting team Chelsea.

Today, the score is one to zero, according to international practice, the home team is at the front and the visiting team is at the back.

Ferguson's team took advantage of a quick counterattack in the opening stage, and Van Persie calmly scored the key goal.

Just 4 minutes to open the scoring for the Red Devils!

But after that, Chelsea rushed and pressed Manchester United like crazy. The momentum and appearance seemed to be desperate, and they wanted to beat Manchester United to death!
If it is said that Chelsea used this desperate style of play when their physical fitness was not bad in the first half, running, pressing and pressing crazily, then it is understandable, but the question is, it is already the second half, and they continue to play like this?

Damn Xipi, are you playing Manchester United as your opponent in the Champions League final?
Depressedly, Ferguson pinched the scarlet rosacea nose on his face, it was a little itchy, and he wanted to sneeze, but he couldn't.

That feeling is really...

At this moment, the Manchester United players on the field suddenly kicked the ball out of bounds.

This move made Ferguson puzzled, and he wanted to scold directly.

Fortunately, at this time, the referee blew his whistle and the game was suspended.

It turned out that Chelsea winger Moses had cramps and fell to the ground and rolled over, looking very painful.

Ferguson couldn't help but raised his head and glanced at the bright red scoreboard.

"I wiped it, and I started to cramp after only six or 10 minutes. It took a lot of hard work!"

Looking closely, almost every Chelsea player was out of breath, and none of the jerseys on their bodies was clean. It seemed that every one of them was trying their best to kill Manchester United.

This made Ferguson feel depressed.

Damn Xipi, how much money did Southampton give you to make you work so hard?

But what made Ferguson even more worried was that Manchester United's players were obviously infected by Chelsea's ruthlessness, and their actions on the field began to increase, so that Ferguson had to go to the sidelines frequently to remind him.

Chelsea's acting manager Zenden was quick to replace Moses with Adam Lallana.

This made Ferguson's heart skip a beat, wouldn't it?
Another ex-Southampton player?
Manchester United lost two points before. Against Manchester City, the old Southampton star Strowman performed well and scored twice.

When he played Arsenal later, it was the former Southampton player Chamberlain who performed eye-catchingly.

Sometimes Ferguson wondered, did these guys do it on purpose?

Could it be that they all want to help Southampton win the championship?

Haven't you all left the saints?

The match between the two sides restarted, but the scene was still hot, and Ferguson on the sidelines watched with horror.

"Vidic, take it easy and don't get hurt again!"

"I'm sorry, Ferdinand, don't hit Demba Ba with your body, be careful!"

"Raphael, be gentle, your temper has been rising recently, restrain yourself!"

"Cleverly, don't lose your position easily, okay?"

"Damn it, Phil Jones, are you stupid? To get a yellow card for no reason?"

The entire Old Trafford stadium, from time to time can hear the violent shouting from the old man.

From his yelling, it is not difficult to see how tragic the game on the court is.

Both sides of the confrontation almost tried their best to feed each other, just wanting to put the opponent to death!

As the game passed by one minute and one second, the time entered 10 minutes, but Chelsea obviously had no intention of giving up.

Acting coach Cenden still kept walking to the sidelines, calling for players, but did not make substitutions.

This made Ferguson a little strange, "Why didn't the Oscar, who performed so well recently, not win this game?"

The assistant coach Mike Phelan shook his head, "I don't know, logically speaking, Oscar has performed so well recently and is in such good condition, there is no reason why he shouldn't be there!"

Ferguson thinks it makes sense. In this crucial battle, Oscar didn't even make the squad. There is only one explanation, that is, the Brazilian midfielder was sidelined by Chelsea's top management.

Could it be related to the match-fixing incident that has caused a lot of noise recently?
Thinking of this, Ferguson couldn't help laughing.

What the hell, whoever came to watch this game and dare to say that Chelsea played match-fixing would just be talking nonsense with their eyes open!
Is there such a match-fixing?
I almost lost half of my team!
Ferguson was even thinking, if he continued to play like this, and consumed so much, the next two rounds might not be easy!
"Looking back, let the management find out. Oscar is a very capable player. Chelsea doesn't want it. We should bring it in!" Ferguson said dispensable.

It has nothing to do with him.

After all, Moyes will be the Manchester United coach next season!
Just when Ferguson was coveting Chelsea's Oscar, the situation on the court changed suddenly.

After seeing Manchester United midfielder Ryan Giggs conceding the ball, Chelsea played a quick counterattack.

Ramirez knocked a pass. After Adam Lallana, who had just replaced Moses, got the ball, he got rid of the defender and pushed it diagonally to the far end. Juan Mata, who was unmarked, rushed to the horse and rushed to the far corner before everyone else.

Facing Mata's exquisite shot, De Gea was already ready.

It stands to reason that this ball is not difficult to pounce, De Gea is in a good position, and the chances of plunging the ball are quite high.

But who would have thought that, suddenly, a Cheng Yaojin was killed halfway, and the parachutist Phil Jones turned out, causing everyone in the entire Old Trafford stadium to gasp at this moment.

It was at this critical moment that Phil Jones was supposed to clear the siege, but unexpectedly touched the ball, which turned into a shot. The ball turned in one direction and crashed into the near corner. De Gea didn't even have time to react.

Everyone in the audience stared dumbfounded at the red-faced general Phil Jones on the court.

He has worked hard!

But why, why did he appear in that place at that time?

Ferguson even had an urge to cry!

He really has a feeling that he is going to step on the ground and fall into the cliff!

Why?Why are you playing me like this?
Because of the previous match-fixing incident, the referee Weber, who had been adjusted temporarily, mercilessly blew the whistle for the goal to be effective!
On the big red scoreboard, the score of one to zero soon became one to one!

The Red Devils fans in the entire Old Trafford stadium were full of tears.

They couldn't bear to blame Phil Jones, because he was so desperate and diligent, but the problem was...

Chelsea players are crazy!

They all started celebrating the team's goal like crazy!
Although it was an own goal, they were able to draw with Manchester United one to one. This can be regarded as a must-kill order to the board of directors, and there is a fair explanation!
Acting coach Cenden, on the other hand, looked rejoicing after the catastrophe and kept shaking his head, feeling his entire back was soaked.

Damn Xipi, it turns out that being the head coach is such a test of the heart!
No wonder Ferguson had a pacemaker installed in his heart!
"A blind cat meets a dead mouse, lucky guy!"

Ferguson glanced at Zenden, cursed the spineless guy secretly, turned to look at Mike Phelan, and immediately adjusted the team.

This time, he went all out and must score again!
Looking at Adam Lallana again, Ferguson wanted to cry.

It's Southampton's old player again, I'll go!
Ever since, Manchester United quickly made substitution adjustments.

Hernandez was on, Scholes was on, and the Red Devils began to hold high the banner of attack and press on.

Chelsea are also making substitutions and adjustments, but they are still thinking more about defense.

Time is running out, it's not bad to hold the tie!

The two sides fought more fiercely, fiercely, and fiercely than before!

From time to time, there were scenes of people turning their backs on their backs, and the referee Weber became the busiest person on the field.

Rafael loses his cool and kicks Adam Lallana, red card!

Foul by Benatia, yellow card!
Phil Jones fouled, yellow card, two yellows turned into one red, sent off!
Demba Ba made an elbow movement when fighting for the header, red card!

……

The whole game went down, and the time passed by every minute, but the movements on the field were getting bigger and bigger.

Even though the referee Weber was experienced and kept showing red and yellow cards for warnings, he still failed to stabilize the situation.

Even, when Rafael's red card and Demba Ba's red card, the two teams were on the verge of conflict, and they almost went to control.

This short time of 10 minutes is really terrible!

But in the end, time passed!

When stoppage time came, Webb couldn't wait to blow the whistle for the end of the game.

The entire Old Trafford stadium suddenly sounded overwhelming boos.

No one could tell who the booing was for?
Up and down for Manchester United?To Chelsea?Or to Weber?

Who knows?

In this game, both sides paid a heavy price in the end.

United received two red cards, and both Rafael and Phil Jones received ruby ​​cards for their uncool behavior and will miss at least the next round.

Chelsea is also having a hard time, and Demba Ba is also suspended with a red card!

Who could have imagined that the rumored match-fixing would turn out to be so hot and tragic in the end, it was almost like a martial arts show!

At the moment when the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Ferguson covered his face and silently returned to the home team's coaching bench to sit down.

No one could clearly see his expression at this time, so he must be very disappointed.

Failure to win Chelsea, the point gap between Manchester United and Southampton is likely to be shortened again.

The Saints are a guest at White Hart Lane this round and challenged Tottenham Hotspur away.

Throughout the Premier League, who doesn't know, Tottenham Hotspur is following the example of Southampton.

Furthermore, Tottenham Hotspur's performance this season is very eye-catching, but in terms of overall strength, there is still a big gap between them and Southampton.

Therefore, it may be difficult for Tottenham Hotspur to have high hopes!
If Southampton wins, then Manchester United's lead is only one point left!

What makes people even more pessimistic is that in this game, Manchester United fought so hard and consumed so much, and paid the price of red card suspensions for Raphael and Phil Jones. Then, in the remaining two rounds, can they still win?
Perhaps, the only thing that is beneficial to Manchester United is the schedule.

Manchester United now has neither the distraction of domestic cup games nor the need to consider the Champions League, and concentrates all its energy on the league.

Unlike Southampton, the semi-finals of the Europa League and the final of the FA Cup are about to start.

Fighting on the third front, even if the Saints have a strong bench lineup and strong strength, they may still make mistakes.

Especially considering that Southampton's opponent in the Europa League semi-finals is Benfica, while the opponent in the FA Cup final is Chelsea.

If Southampton reaches the Europa League final, the opponent is likely to be Chelsea.

Thinking of this, Ferguson's heart became much more balanced.

Hehe, Blue Army, Blue Army, if you fight like today in the Europa League and FA Cup finals, then Southampton may have enough!
Ever since, Ferguson's originally tangled heart was loosened again, and he showed a playful smile.
