Chapter 68

Only three days have passed since the game against Sheffield Wednesday, and Manchester United will usher in the next game. The schedule should not be too tight.

The next opponent is the Volga Rotors. The two teams drew a goalless draw in the first round of the UEFA Cup. Manchester United will play another game at home against this mysterious opponent who rarely appears in European competitions.

In the first game, the Volga Rotor took advantage of the home court to keep a clean sheet, which made the long-distance Manchester United have no temper at all.

Thinking back to the long-distance travel of more than 40 hours and the quality of the opponent's lawn, the Manchester United players still have lingering fears. The opponent's field has really pitted Keane and Giggs.

This time when they met the Volga Rotary Wings, these two shouted the loudest, and they both claimed to send their opponents back to the Tsaritsyn era with their own hands.

Before the game, many media unkindly thought that Ferguson was going to fight the team that put the bus.

In the last game, the Xie Wednesday team set up a bus. You made trouble for the head coach. This time, a Russian team comes back. If you have the ability, try to make trouble for the other team again.

Ferguson has been in a good mood for the past two days. He is not in a hurry or annoyed when facing the media, and he can chat with people with a smile.

After all, he had just used the media to hang and beat Francis two days ago, and he couldn't do anything about the denial of people with his pants up.

Faced with questions from the media, the rosy-faced Ferguson declared while chewing gum: "Through the last game, we basically figured out the characteristics of our opponents. They can't defend us. It's only a matter of time before we score."

The head coach of the Volga Rotors, who had just arrived in Manchester, was not forgiving: "Our boys respected their opponents too much in the first game, and they didn't show their own characteristics at all. Although we missed the home court advantage, we still have confidence to advance to the second round."

The Russian's "nonsense" basically did not splash in the English media, and this buddy put on the bus to show confidence.

That is, he is not British, or else he is "Francis II".

Compared with the Russian team, everyone is obviously more interested in Cantona. After all, the French gave everyone the biggest melon of the year, and let everyone eat it intermittently for nine months.

According to the British style of saving face and paying attention to decent behavior in everything they do, the behavior of the French kicking fans is no different from that of hooligans. There is nothing wrong with Manchester United kicking him out directly.

But a shocking thing just happened. The disciplined Ferguson, who has never been able to rub the sand in his eyes, did not hesitate to use the strategic weapon "hair dryer" on the club's shareholders for the sake of this "guilty man", forcefully suppressing the matter. down.

At the beginning of the season, after the French left in anger, he scolded the club management and kept the French with a salary increase and contract extension.

When things go wrong, there must be a demon. What kind of magic did the French cast on Ferguson, so that the old man not only supported him in this situation, but also put down his body and went to France to keep him when he went home privately.

In the end, the Scottish iron coach surrendered Cantona and regarded him as the team's sharpest knife, or did the French continue to act as a monster and disgraced Ferguson.With the old man's temper, he would definitely turn against Cantona at that point.

No matter what the result is, everyone wants to see it.

September 9th is the match day for Manchester United against the Volga Rotors at home.

Ferguson still arranges warm-up training in the morning. Recently, the team has played one game for three days, so there is only one day of training after each game.

In this kind of schedule, the players' muscles are basically stiff.In order to adjust the physical condition of the players, Ferguson will arrange training on the morning of the game, so that everyone's body can enter the state in advance.

Just as everyone changed, Ferguson pushed open the door of the locker room and walked in. He was accompanied by a man in a black coat. It was Eric Cantona!

Although the Frenchman has returned to Manchester, in order to avoid suspicion, he has been conducting personal training during this period. This is the first time he has appeared in the Manchester United dressing room since returning to France before the pre-season.

Seeing the return of the long-lost "King", all Manchester United players in the dressing room stood up and applauded together.

With his head held high and his back straight, the Frenchman began to greet the players in the locker room one by one.

"Mr. Steve, it's an honor to meet you!"

"Roy, you are a tough man!"

"Peter, you seem to be in good spirits!"

"Li, you scored a lot of goals this season!"

"Ryan, your leg injury looks better!"

"Gary, you don't seem to have grown, I'm sorry!"

"David, your game skills are already comparable to your appearance. I heard that our beauty is about to fall in love with you!"

Your beauties?what kind of person.
Cantona's words made Beckham's statement perfect. If it weren't for the repeated tempering of those female reporters, it would be difficult for him to maintain the smile on his face.

Forget it, your beauty is your beauty, I don't care if she is your common beauty, or you can't have anyone.

He knows Cantona's character, this buddy likes to half-spoken, you don't understand and ask, he still thinks you are not smart, and then tells you the answer in a down-to-earth tone, just like a kind of charity.
Wait, who is their beauty?
Cantona's words made him a little distracted, after all, this beauty is a real beauty, not some artificial human.

In the afternoon game, Ferguson rotated the lineup, Philip Neville replaced Irvine, and John O'Kane replaced Gary Neville.

The younger brother is really amazing, the right back can't compete with Gary, he turns around and competes with himself, and when he finds that he can't beat him, he can still play left back, this is the benefit of panacea.

And Gary Neville insisted on training day after day, and finally the chubby Dave found signs of fatigue during the routine physical examination. The old man simply refused to let him enter the squad, and threatened him to come to Carrington again on the rest day, so that he would clean the toilet.

Gary Neville was a little bit aggrieved yesterday. He lied to the old man that he was not tired, and the effect was almost like a drunk saying that he did not drink too much.

But after seeing Cantona, his smile was always on his face, and his mouth never closed.

At the end of the warm-up, Gary Neville practiced short-distance passing with the Frenchman like a dog.

As long as the eyesight is good, two people can be recognized from 100 meters away. The two brothers both straighten their backs and look straight ahead with their eyes. They don't look like normal people.

Before the game in the afternoon, Bruce was bragging in the locker room: "Have you heard? The fans of the Volgograd Rotors are all rich people. More than 300 people who come here live in a star-rated hotel. They spend a lot of money when they go out. I really didn't see it!"

Hearing Bruce's words, Beckham and Gary Neville glanced at each other tacitly, and both smiled and shook their heads.

It's really impossible to talk to these people who don't know much.

The monthly income of ordinary people over there is only one or two thousand pounds. How did this economic situation come about?
People without money can't come, of course only rich people can come, this is called survivor bias.

Maybe these rich people are here to travel, watching football is just a side project.

Within 10 minutes of the start of the game, Beckham tackled the opposing player twice.

It wasn't that he was bullying, but that the Volgograd Rotor team's attack from the left was so fierce that it almost knocked out his youth training teammate O'Kane, so he had to withdraw to join the defense.

The Volgograd Rotors came up without even trying, and stormed towards Manchester United's two flanks.

When they came up, they assisted their younger brother. Looking at this posture, they knew that they had studied Manchester United's videos.

The younger brother did not lose the chain this time. The opponent's right player is a lean guy who looks good at running, and his skills are also good.

His technical characteristics are in the arms of his younger brother, and Phil single-handedly defended his opponent several times in a row.

Unable to open a breakthrough on the right, the Volgograd Rotor team shifted their offensive focus to the left. O'Kane was so confused that he was about to vomit, and Beckham could only come back to help him cause trouble.

What about taking the bus?How did the Russians drive the bus out of the restricted area?
Beckham feels that none of these media is reliable, and he is good at digging up gossip news, but he can't do it when it comes to professional fields.

It's still the head coach's honesty, and he really attacks when he talks about offense.

However, it seems that the strength is mediocre
Fuck, Steve fired again!

Just when Beckham was a little bit disgusted with his opponent, the Volgograd Rotor team suddenly launched an attack in the middle. Bruce swished up high and grabbed the ball. As a result, the Russian guy pulled the ball behind him at the moment he grabbed it, and then pulled it out from the left side of his body, leaving the Manchester United captain clean.

The Volgograd Rotor team gained a numerical advantage locally. Their offensive players made cross passes continuously while the defenders covered their positions. Even Schmeichel was tricked out, and their No. 9 player pushed an empty goal. succeed.

Manchester United conceded 9 goal in the opening 1 minutes. According to the UEFA Cup rules, they need to score at least 2 goals to advance to the next round.

After scoring the goal, the Russians did not defend, but fought against Manchester United. Their combination of side and center is very similar to that of Manchester United, and there is nothing they can do for a while.

The offense was not going well, and Manchester United's formation was getting higher and higher. As a result, another goal was scored by the opponent after 15 minutes. This time, it was Bruce who made a mistake.

The Russians easily accepted the gift, and now Manchester United need to score 3 more goals to advance, and the situation has become a bit critical.

At the end of the first half, the score was still 0-2, and the Old Trafford fans were almost breathless.

The team played like this, even the fans were fooled.

As soon as everyone entered the locker room, Ferguson opened the door and walked in angrily: "Steve, what time did you sleep last night? Anyone can beat you!

By the way, have you forgotten the color of Manchester United's uniform, the yellow ones are Russians! "
