Manchester United legend

Chapter 158 Adjusting Status

After three consecutive draws, Manchester United lost 2 to 3 at home to Middlesbrough, which broke the absolute upset in the second devil's schedule.

Before this game, Manchester United maintained the unbeaten record at home this season, but Middlesbrough defeated the struggling Manchester United under the leadership of former Manchester United captain Brian Robson.

Lieka, Gordon and Daniel blasted Manchester United's gate three times, helping Middlesbrough break the record of never beating Manchester United at Old Trafford in 69 years!

The Manchester United team lost ground and was very chaotic.Ferguson returned to his hometown for a funeral due to a personal matter, and was not present to direct. The interim head coach did not have enough ability and was timid, making the game even more out of control.

Under the harsh situation, Ferguson had to use the phone to remotely command, but it was too late. The two goals scored by Butt and Scholes only saved a little face, and Manchester United was still ashamed at home!

Counting this defeat, Manchester United has lost six games! December is the middle of winter in England, and the wind is bitter, making people feel the icy chill.

Although Manchester United has not yet fallen behind in the league and the Champions League, such a difficult game, such a difficult schedule, and Manchester United's performance, it is indeed difficult for people to have sufficient confidence.

Although Manchester United beat Nottingham Forest 3-0 at home and drew Chelsea 0-0, the stalemate situation is still unfavorable to Manchester United, which is fighting on the third line.

Counting this Christmas and New Year's devil's schedule, Manchester United at least has a wave of equally difficult strong players and time-intensive high-intensity series-there is no team in England that can withstand three consecutive devil's schedules.

Can Manchester United do it?
In the bitter cold of December, no one could answer that question with confidence, except Ferguson.

After playing the game in December, the league has played 12 rounds, and Manchester United has fallen to third place in the standings, 20 points away from the top of the list, Villa, and surpassed by Chelsea by 5 points.

Arsenal, the champion of last season, has 35 points with Manchester United and is still a strong opponent of Manchester United.

The knockout opponent of the Champions League has also been determined to be Inter Milan-almost all the British media believe that it is a signing, and Manchester United will be in danger.

When both the league and the Champions League were facing difficulties, Manchester United suddenly seemed to be completely reborn. Under the command of Ferguson, they won consecutive victories. In January and February, they played an astonishing [-] games, [-] wins and [-] tie.

Ferguson's Manchester United is like a wild horse running wild and a tiger descending the mountain. Almost no opponent can stop their progress.

Under the crazy offensive, the Premier League opponents had almost no way to resist. What greeted them was a torrent of red steel and a nightmare of failure.

After entering 1999, Manchester United's first game was the third round of the FA Cup. Manchester United defeated Middlesbrough 3-1 at home, avenging their loss in the league.

That game was on January 1, and the game was still full of surprises. Manchester United was still scored first by the opponent. Middlesbrough made a very simple high-altitude pass from the frontcourt and hoisted it into the penalty area.

Then Manchester United began to show off. Ferguson put Giggs on the right side of the strange move to exert its power. Giggs took the ball from the right side and moved to the middle. When he dribbled the ball to the top of the penalty area, he suddenly stuffed it to Cole, who was leaning on the defender. Cole turned around and also simply scored the ball.

Soon, Bart dribbled the ball straight into the penalty area and was tripped. Irwin made it overnight and overtook the score.Subsequently, Ryan Giggs, who switched back to the left, and his teammates cooperated with each other and entered the penalty area. He scored with his left foot and Manchester United successfully eliminated their opponents 3-1.

Back in the Premier League, Manchester United played against the Hammers at home in the 21st round, despite a rare power outage at Old Trafford, the game was forced to be postponed.But the Red Devils' armed forces used their lives and firmly grasped the situation.

The Black Wind Shuangsha dominated the game: Cole took the ball from the top of the penalty area and turned around, attracted two central defenders to defend and then passed it to Yorke. The unguarded Yorke shot with his right foot and went straight to the dead corner, 1-0.

Then, there was another black wind and double evil performance. This time, Yorke drove the ball straight into the penalty area. He also attracted the defense and then passed it to Cole. Cole scored easily with a single goal.

In the second half, Solskjaer, who came off the bench, also played well. He scored a difficult hanging goal in only 3 minutes. West Ham United, which was 4 goals behind, scored a goal at the last moment to save a little face.

Who scored for West Ham?Lampard!That's right, Lampard, nicknamed the magic lamp in the future, is one of the best products of West Ham's youth training, and he has already attracted the interest of giants at that time.

But his ability to play in West Ham United is also due to his uncle Redknapp. It was his support that gave Lampard a bright future.

The 4-1 victory was far from satisfying Ferguson's appetite. In other words, Manchester United has already risen, and it is doomed that no team can stop it, let alone resist.

The unlucky one after West Ham was Leicester City. They were beaten six times by Manchester United at home and eventually lost 2-6.Black Wind and Shuangsha showed their power again, and Yorke scored three goals in a row, which was impressive; Cole scored twice, which also showed the demeanor of a shooter. ;Finally, even the defender Stam also scored a goal before the whistle!
Manchester United's big away victory shocked their opponents, and the subsequent game was the fourth round of the FA Cup. Manchester United beat rivals Liverpool 2-1 at home and advanced to the next round with their heads held high.Although Owen's speed as a civet cat made Stam suffer a lot and scored a header in the first half to open the scoring for Liverpool, but Manchester United's attack was more violent and frantic.

The lagging score stimulated the bloodiness of the Red Devils players, and they launched an attack on Liverpool's position without any pause.

Although the opponent's defenders blocked Manchester United's must-go shots more than once, even though the goal post became Liverpool's teammates for a time, even though Liverpool shrank all the players back to the penalty area to defend, Manchester United still reversed the opponent and reversed their fate through sharp passing, tacit cooperation and non-stop offensive without victory!
In the last 4 minutes, Beckham sent a free kick, Cole headed horizontally in front of the goal, and York scored in the small penalty area; soon Scholes entered the penalty area, and Solskjaer shot through Liverpool's defender and goalkeeper when Liverpool was in chaos. Two lines of defense-2 to 1!Manchester United reversed the score at the last moment and won the victory!
Ferguson raised his arms and shouted impassionedly, "We did it, we grabbed the throat of fate, defeating Liverpool is the best test for us to enter the championship!"

Back in the league, Manchester United played away at Charlton. This game was also full of passion. Manchester United attacked at the Valley Stadium for almost 90 minutes. Charlton has been defending carefully and almost without mistakes.

But Manchester United finally solved the problem in the 89th minute. Yorke pushed Scholes's extremely precise cross into the only gap between the opponent's post and the goalkeeper!

After Manchester United won this game, they reached the top position for the first time this season!This is a hearty January. In this month, Manchester United won 5 games in a row and won 5 consecutive victories!
