There is a dream called football

Chapter 289

Before Christmas, Arsenal still has two rivals, one is Manchester United and the other is Liverpool. After these two games, the Christmas holiday will come. Of course, it is only one day, and Arsenal will soon face the cruel Christmas season.

As we all know, Ferguson is the best at playing the Christmas schedule. He even said that when others are tired, Manchester United can use their bench depth to open up points.

For Manchester United, the game against Arsenal is the start of the Christmas schedule.

In this game, the starting strikers sent by Ferguson are Rooney and Ruud van Nistelrooy.

The midfielder is Fletcher, O'Shea, Park Ji-sung, Giggs, among them Park Ji-sung played Ronaldo's position.

The defense is Ferdinand and Sylvester, the wings are Neville and Brown, and the goalkeeper is Van der Sar.

This lineup is stronger than last season. I don’t know how much. The cheating American goalkeeper Howard has left and replaced the Dutch Van der Sar.

After the opening, Manchester United played mainly against the visitors. The midfielders played very fast, and several midfielders almost kept the ball. It is certainly impossible for Park Ji-sung to break through like Ronaldo, so his best way is to run quickly.

Whether in Eindhoven or in the South Korean national team, Park Ji-sung gave the biggest impression that he could not run to death.

Three passes and two downs, the ball reached Rooney's feet, he crossed to Ruud van Nistelrooy, the Dutchman hit an empty goal from behind, the ball was scored, but the referee's flag was also raised high, offside.

However, the Highbury fans were in a cold sweat. Only 5 minutes into the game, their defense was pierced.

Wenger was zipping up just now, but he couldn't zip up his jacket no matter what. In desperation, he could only open his jacket.

Wenger pointed to Campbell and Gilbert. The ball was the responsibility of these two people. Of course, Park Ji-sung's role exceeded Wenger's expectations. I thought the Korean was playing soy sauce, but I didn't expect him to be very useful on the wing.

Soon, Arsenal's Cameroon full-back Lauren was less polite in his second encounter with Park Ji-sung, kicking directly into the opponent's shin shield.

"Get up, are you a chick?"

"This is the Premier League."

If Keane is here, it is estimated that a fight will start immediately. I remember that when Vieira and Keane were both in the past, Manchester United and Arsenal were really wars.

O'Shea and Fletcher pushed Lauren away, "If you have the ability to attack me, bullying honest people is nothing."

"Ha ha."

The referee came to separate the two sides. This kind of action is impossible to get a yellow card in the Premier League. The referee just warned the two sides.

"Pu, you don't have to step down, we will avenge you."

Soon, revenge came to Li Qiao, and Fletcher also kicked Li Qiao's ankle from the side.

As we all know, FIFA is now very strict about malicious retaliation, and the Premier League is the same. For example, if Lauren kicked Park Ji-sung just now, if Manchester United immediately kicked Lauren, it will be considered revenge, and it must be at least a yellow card.

Arsenal's Pires communicated with the referee, "This must be revenge, it is revenge for Park Ji-sung's kick just now."

"Shut up, I'm just defending him from breaking through."

In the end, the referee did not raise his card, because this could only be considered a reciprocal kick, and it was impossible to say what kind of revenge it was.

But everyone is as clear as a mirror in their hearts.

The most uncomfortable thing for Li Qiao to hold the ball in the forward line is not to stop the ball, but to hold the ball with his back.

The striker must hold the ball with his back, leaning against the opponent's central defender, which is different from the winger, where Li Qiao does not need to be back-to-back with the opponent's player.

With Ferdinand on his back, Li Qiao felt as if his back was leaning against a big mountain, and he couldn't push it at all.

Wenger also doubted his tactics, whether it was a mistake to push Li Qiao to the forward line, but helplessly, Arsenal's three forwards-Henry, Bergkamp, ​​and Reyes were all injured, there was no way around it.

The commentator Martin Taylor also saw the problem, "If Li Qiao continues to play like this, then he is no threat."

Of course, unless Arsenal scored first, then Li Qiao could become a sharp knife in the counterattack, but Manchester United obviously did not give Arsenal a chance.

On the other side, Van Persie was also marked by Sylvester and Neville. In the 15 minutes of the first half, Arsenal only had two shots, all of which were forced by Pires from outside the penalty area to collect statistics.

Li Qiao ran back slowly.

"It doesn't matter if I get scolded by Arthur after the game. I won't fight Ferdinand again. It's a waste of my time."

After Li Qiao retreated, Arsenal's formation actually became 451, but with two midfielders.

This is a distraction for Pires.

"Hey, I said you are in my position, we now have two midfielders."

"No, I'm number nine and a half, not a midfielder."

Wenger can understand Li Qiao's choice, but if he plays like this, Pires may have to retreat, which is another problem.

Manchester United will not wait for Arsenal to change. Rooney took the ball in the penalty area and dunked lightly. It was Toure who defended him. The angle was already wide enough to shoot.

Lehman patted Toure on the head, "You did a great job."

"Hey, I will make up for the position I lost myself."

Soon, Manchester United made a comeback, this time it was Giggs on the left who broke through with the ball. The most beautiful goal of Giggs' career was his single-handed ride against Arsenal in the FA Cup.

So when Giggs cuts in like a wind from the wing, Arsenal's defensive players all gather and must not let Giggs shoot. This guy's feet are very hard.

But at this moment, Giggs did not shoot, but passed the ball with his left foot.

Rooney.

Fanny.

All missed, even Manchester United's own offensive players didn't know who Giggs was going to pass the ball to. Could it be a mistake?

No!

Giggs did it on purpose. He just wanted to give Park Ji-sung on the right.

In the World Cup, Park Ji-sung scored a similar goal for South Korea. This guy's shooting skills are still very good.

Because it was too sudden, Lehmann was caught off guard by the defense here. Park Ji-sung's goal was like a cannonball. Lehmann was beyond his reach, and the ball flew into the near corner.

Happiness came too suddenly. The Korean was going to fly to Ferguson to celebrate, but he didn't expect that he was suppressed by the excited friends before he ran out for a long time.
