long live football

When the intermission ended and the players of both teams returned to the pitch one by one, preparing for the second half of the game, a burst of singing suddenly rang out from the away stands of Goodison Park: "We don't want Smith."

he is not a good coach

step down

step down

Change to someone who is capable"

The fans took advantage of the intermission to compose these two lines of lyrics, accompanied by catchy tunes, and sang them in the stands over and over again, as if they would never get bored, until Walter Smith turned livid and sang The commentators also laughed: "Poor acting coach Smith, he was opposed by his own fans, how ridiculous it is!"

There was silence on the Manchester United coaching bench. Everyone lowered their heads and tried not to look at Smith's expression, so as not to embarrass him.

But old Smith must have lost his face today, because the "Daily Mail" once made statistics that there are 211 countries and regions around the world that broadcast the Premier League, and only 27 countries and regions cannot watch the Premier League...Let's think about Manchester United's With high support and high audience ratings around the world, this scene will probably be seen by hundreds of millions of fans at the same time.

Sky TV's live broadcast was specifically aimed at Smith for a close-up. The Scottish coach was flushed from forehead to chin, and he didn't know whether it was anger or embarrassment.

But Karl, who was sitting on the coach's bench, found it ironic.

During these days, in Walter Smith's body, he perfectly witnessed what it means to say that sweat and harvest are out of proportion.

Smith has never put in less effort than others. It is hard to say whether the dozens of gray hairs he has lost these days are due to pressure or hard work. Before each game, he will try his best to collect opponent information and then formulate a perfect tactic, but fate has played tricks. , Things that consume countless energy before the game are always unable to control the overall situation during the game.Maybe just like players, talent is the most important thing to be a good head coach?

……

After the start of the second half, Everton still held the initiative, and Wayne Rooney seemed to have taken a stimulant. As long as he received a pass from his teammates, he would keep attacking and attacking again, full of desire for performance.

In the 51st minute of the game, Everton midfielder Li Tieguo made a long pass behind Neville. Wayne Rooney stopped the ball on the right chest of the penalty area. Out of goal, failed to net.

Manchester United fans immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

ITV commentator Davide shouted with regret: "It's a pity! Rooney failed to score twice...but I wish him more chances to shoot in the next game."

All the fans who are watching the live broadcast in front of the TV think that what David said will definitely happen, because it cannot be said that Manchester United is being beaten by Everton on the court, but it is clear at a glance who has more momentum.

Although Wayne Rooney is an Everton player, as an Englishman, he is destined to be loved by all English fans.No way, who made the British Isles produce superstars at a slow rate?Forever heartthrob David Beckham made another move to Real Madrid last year.

Smith couldn't sit still on the coach's bench. He stood up and walked back and forth on the edge of the court. Although he had a mature and stable personality, the current game situation still inspired him with a trace of blood that is unique to Scots: "Damn Wei En Rooney, don't you want to make the second half of the season easier for yourself? What a showy temper!" Smith muttered angrily.

Perhaps all the reporters, fans and commentators at the Goodison Stadium feel that Rooney is performing so well on the court because he wants to help Everton win, but in fact Smith and Rooney themselves are well aware of the truth— — Rooney performed so well for Manchester United. He hopes to add points to his transfer and get the high weekly salary offered by Manchester United next season.

Although Manchester United has not yet negotiated Rooney's first purchase agreement with Everton, Ferguson secretly met with Rooney's agent last summer and reached a tacit transfer agreement with the other party.A club like Everton cannot retain Wayne Rooney, who has high hopes from fans all over England. Sooner or later Rooney will transfer to a wealthy club, and since Rooney himself said that he only wants to stay in England to play, then Which Premier League team will get Rooney has become the favorite thing for the media to speculate in the past two years.

There are many strong teams in the Premier League, and there are also many giants, but there are only two teams that can truly be called the kings with rich backgrounds, Manchester United and Liverpool.They have all dominated English football for a long time and won several Champions League trophies. Other teams such as Arsenal, Chelsea, and Tottenham are even worse than Manchester United and Liverpool.

Although Everton doesn't like Liverpool or Manchester United, they and Liverpool are rivals in the same city. It is absolutely impossible to sell Rooney to the Derby opponent. Manchester United is obviously a better choice than the Red Army.Rooney himself probably would not have chosen to go to Liverpool. His whole family are die-hard Everton fans, and Rooney had a tragic experience of being beaten up by his boxing father for wearing the wrong Liverpool jersey when he was a child. .

In fact, many fans have speculated that Rooney will definitely go to Manchester United in the future, but no one is sure when Rooney will transfer and at what price.

Of course, Wayne Rooney doesn't know what Smith is thinking now. Lu Xiaopang has only one thought in his heart at the moment-to have a greater status in the dressing room after going to Manchester United, for a higher weekly salary, and to be able to play in the United States. Do something for Everton before you leave... fight!

……

In the 55th minute of the game, Smith made a substitution adjustment. He replaced Louis Saha with Wes Brown. He was obviously afraid of Rooney's fierce momentum and wanted to strengthen the team's defense to avoid losing points again.

Davide criticized him again and again for this substitution: "Bad substitution. The Red Devils under the leadership of Smith have no vitality at all. Manchester United has a much better striker than Everton. These valuable strikers are under his hands. He couldn't play his own strength at all, instead he started the business of the central defenders, sticking to the midfield."

"Everton is playing against Manchester United. This scene is really rare."

On the Manchester United coaching bench, when the fourth official lights up the substitution sign, Carl knows that Smith has made a bad move-the king of the restricted area like Ruud van Nistelrooy needs a line to deliver shells for him most. Why did Van Nistelrooy get the top scorer in the Premier League last season?That's because he has David Beckham always sending him precise set pieces.And now that Beckham has left, one of the players who cooperated better with Van Nistelrooy in the team training is Louis Saha. Now in order to strengthen the team's defense, Smith replaced Saha, and Van Nistelrooy is in the frontcourt Isn't Li about to encounter even greater difficulties?

In other words, Smith knows what he is doing and knows that Manchester United may not win this game, but he does not want the team to continue to lose points.Whatever Smith's intentions, it's an indisputable fact that his thinking is sometimes too conservative.

The singing in the away stands was getting louder, and the vast majority of Manchester United fans had stopped cheering for the team and joined in the chorus: "We don't want Smith

he is not a good coach

step down

step down

Change to someone who is capable"

"Manchester United fans are venting their dissatisfaction with the acting manager again. Smith's face turned red again, but he still chose to keep his back to the stands without saying a word. I wonder if he is scolding these fans in his heart now...Fan Ni!"

David suddenly shouted: "It was Van Nistelrooy who received a cross from teammate Ryan Giggs! He was breaking through with the ball! Is he ready to stand up and save the team at a critical moment?"

In the arena, Giggs's right cross accurately reached the feet of Van Nistelrooy, and Van Nistelrooy immediately turned around and broke through with the ball.His speed is extremely fast, and he has already passed two Everton players in just a blink of an eye.

Suddenly there was a sound in the stadium, and the Manchester United fans shouted: "Fanny—" The fans desperately hope that Ruud Ruud can be like a hero, and rescue Manchester United from the deadlock at the moment.

The Everton defenders panicked, and people outside the pitch may not be able to feel it, but only when they confront Ruud van Nistelrooy face to face can they clearly know how amazing Ruud van Nistelrooy's speed is at the moment and how eager he is to score goals. Strong - must not be broken into the restricted area by Van Nistelrooy! The title of "King of the Small Restricted Area" is not something that has been blown out. As long as Ruud van Nistelrooy is allowed to enter the restricted area, Everton's gates will be in danger!

Everton defender Watson, who was in charge of defending Ruud van Nistelrooy, suddenly made a tackle when Ruud van Nistelrooy was about to break through the penalty area.Van Nistelrooy didn't notice Watson until he was about to collide with him. He couldn't dodge, and even dribbled the ball and fell down with Watson!

The football bounced far away, Ruud van Nistelrooy fell heavily on the ground and rolled twice, then stopped in the Everton penalty area with his legs hugged and did not move.

Watson got up from the spot with a grunt, faced the referee, and quickly raised his hands to indicate that he did not foul on purpose.

"Watson tackled Van Nistelrooy!" David explained excitedly, "Although he didn't make a big tackle just now, Van Nistelrooy fell to the ground with a very painful expression at the moment! What will the referee do... The referee came running from midfield and he was standing next to Watson...didn't take anything out of his pocket, he just gave Watson a verbal warning!"

At this moment, the referee ran to Van Nistelrooy who was still rolling on the ground, and showed him a yellow card!

Fanny was stunned immediately!

All the Manchester United players on the field were also stunned.

"Yellow card! God, the referee thinks Ruud van Nistelrooy dived!"

"The home whistle! This is the red home whistle!" When everyone was still immersed in surprise, the first person to break the silence was actually Manchester United's acting head coach Walter Smith!

Smith has had enough of the pressure from all sides recently. He has been patient and patient, and finally accumulated together and exploded at this moment!I saw him running quickly along the side of the court to the place closest to the incident, his face flushed with anger, and he waved his two fists at the same time: "What the hell are you referee? You should give that Ivor A yellow card on the 2nd, give us a free kick! Shit! You are a piece of shit! I will complain to the England Referee Disciplinary Committee!"

Smith's voice was very loud, and these words were transmitted into the field very clearly. When several Manchester United players heard it, they immediately surrounded the referee and complained to him: "Fooilhoo van Nistelrooy should not have received a yellow card!" "He No diving!"

Even Van Nistelrooy got up from the ground, squeezed around the crowd and wanted to talk to the referee... Well, judging from his current performance, Van Nistelrooy was suspected of diving just now.

However, the referee ignored the two obvious fouls by the Everton player, but gave him a yellow card as soon as he saw Ruud van Nistelrooy's performance. This is also completely biased.

At this time, the referee suddenly broke away from all the Manchester United fans, ran to Smith, and asked him with a gloomy face: "Did you say a lot of insults to me just now?"

Seeing the referee running to the sidelines, there was a sound of "Oops!" from the Manchester United coaching bench. Karl, Manchester United first-team coach Phelan, and fitness coach Strudwick jumped up as if their tails were burned. He rushed towards Smith while shouting: "Mr. referee, Smith, he definitely didn't mean to be disrespectful to you!"

However, it's too late.

The referee looked at Smith blankly, and gestured with both hands toward the stands—this was a gesture asking Smith to stop coaching and sit obediently in the stands as an ordinary audience.

FIFA's "Football Competition Rules" clearly stipulates that although the referee "can only show red and yellow cards to players on the field, substitute players or players who are substituted." "But he can send anyone who he feels hinders the game from the field, including fans, media, coaches, and even the club chairman. That is to say, in the game, the referee is the biggest, even if the referee makes a mistake. If you want to punish him, you have to wait until the game is over.

Smith opened his mouth wide and looked stunned.

"Smith was sent to the stands because of inappropriate remarks to the referee?!" Even the commentator was stunned for a while before he realized: "Then who will take over from him to direct the game?"

The photographer's reaction at this time was much faster than that of the narrator. He had already aimed the close-up shot at Karl Oston who was rushing towards Smith.

When the acting coach is sent to the stands, it is natural that the team's assistant coach will take the place of coaching.
