There is a dream called football

Chapter 476
The biggest threat to a striker is surprise. After all, everyone is a professional player who has played football since childhood, and they know the general routines, so there is nothing new.

For example, for the ball just now, if Li Qiao took the ball with his back, the defensive player Ben Haim would have been on top, but Li Qiao chose the most unexpected method, that is, heel shot.

Finally, to Ferguson's surprised gaze, the ball rolled slowly into the goal from the near corner.

1 to 1.
Manchester United equalized.

Old Trafford began to boil, and this was the first time Li Qiao scored with his heel, and it was in such a crucial game.

Ferguson hugged Queiroz next to him, "How do you know, it's amazing."

In fact, Queiroz also guessed it. He just thought that Li Qiao might be a bit tricky. Against a big and tall man like Ben Haim, it is often useless to rely on his body, but a weirder striker will win by surprise. This is like Inzaghi. Many people have nothing to do with him because he is really too weird to play football.

After scoring the goal, Chelsea did not panic. After all, the away game against the mighty Manchester United will definitely be difficult, and this is what Grant expected in his heart, but what he did not expect was that the difficulty would come in such a way.

After scoring the goal, Ferguson immediately gestured to ask Li Qiao and Rooney to switch back. Queiroz understood this time. I have to say that Ferguson's level is still much higher than his. At least Ferguson knows that surprise attacks can be used, but if it is always used, it will be boring.

The time after the first half became a bit boring. The game was fierce and the confrontation was very strong, but neither side produced that kind of wonderful shot. Fans who like tactics will find it very enjoyable to watch, but fans who only like to watch goals will find this game a bit boring.

This is a master's game. There may not be so many goals, but the tactics are very rich. Basically, every attack is carried out in strict accordance with the tactical routine.

At the end of the first half, the score was fixed at 1 to 1, and the two sides entered the intermission, and the final result would be reached in the second half.

******
During the intermission, Ferguson did not turn on the hair dryer mode, obviously he was quite satisfied with the result of the game. Chelsea's defense was very disciplined and tough, and that goal was not easy.

"Don't think that Mourinho's resignation will affect Chelsea's game. I think this is unlikely. For a team of Chelsea's level, players can already integrate tactics into their blood. This is the same as ours, so we must focus, otherwise we may not have a chance to catch up."

"In the second half we still have to score goals and play in the way of Manchester United. Generally, at 75 minutes, the opponent will always have difficulties, and we can always become stronger at this time."

This is amazing. Manchester United often scored more goals after 75 minutes at Old Trafford. This may be the quality of will that Ferguson brought to the team.

On Chelsea's side, Grant was even more satisfied with the team. He scored a goal in the first half, and the defense was very good. The conceded goal can only be said to be because the opponent is too weird, otherwise it should not be able to score.

"I know it's been a tough week for everyone, the spotlight has been on us, we seem to have offended the whole of the UK, but in fact we have done nothing, but there is no way, who makes you make millions of pounds a year, what you make in a year is what many people can't make in a lifetime."

"So, don't complain, the most important thing now is to win, so that everyone can completely shut up, and we can calm down and continue our game. Remember, everything in the football circle is based on kicks, not words."

*****
In the commentary, the famous British BT Sports invited the former Chelsea legendary star Zola. This Italian legend became a Chelsea legend before the arrival of Abramovich, which means that he has not experienced gold dollar football.

First of all, Zola criticized the current team management.

"I don't think there is anything wrong with Jose. He brought the Premier League title to the team. Is he fired just because he didn't win the Champions League? It's unbelievable."

"This kind of quick success will destroy the team. Fortunately, we have experienced Chelsea with money."

"What do you think of Grant's coaching prospects?"

"I don't know, to be honest, I don't know Grant, but I think at least from the first half of the game, Grant can control the team and the players he sends can faithfully execute tactics, which is very good. The team does not seem to be affected by Jose's departure. I hope the team can leave with at least one point, which is good for the future of the team."

"I think it's useless to criticize and complain now. Mourinho is a thing of the past for Chelsea, so what advice do you have for the team?"

Of course Zola knows this, scolding should be scolding, but you can’t always scold, maybe you can say go to hell, Abu, go to hell, management.

After calming down, Zola said, "Sense of honor."

"Sense of honor?"

"Yes, as a player, we can't just play for the owner, for the money, we have to play for the honor."

"I think this is very important. It doesn't matter whether your boss is Jose, Grant, or Ferguson. You play for the sense of honor. It is very important to be worthy of your identity as a professional player."

The commentator nodded. He was born as a reporter. I remember that in the first class of the university, the teacher talked about the professional ethics of reporters, such as not making fake news. It seems that all walks of life are the same.

Serbian Dujkovic has been very busy recently, because next year he will lead the team to play in the Olympic Games.

Because the Chinese team is the host, there is no need to play the qualifiers, but the preparations are still very busy, especially the warm-up match.

Of course, Li Qiao was included in Dujkovic's plan, but the National Olympic games are not within the scope of FIFA's mandatory recall.

On the other hand, Li Qiao is also the key protection object of the national team. Naturally, such players will not always fly back to affect the club's games.

After all, Li Qiao's real role is to lead the Chinese team to the World Cup in South Africa, so for Dujkovic, he can only pay attention to Li Qiao's state, and can't do anything for the time being.

However, Li Qiao's status at Manchester United still makes Dujkovic very happy. With Li Qiao, next year's Olympic Games will be on track.
