This is already the third goalpost of Manchester United's game, and if it were an ordinary team, it would probably be crazy.

But Ferguson has already explained to Manchester United's players that the main attack time is in stoppage time, plus Manchester United has Scholes, Ferdinand, Evra, Vidic, Van der Sar and other veterans in the team.

With the veterans stabilizing the morale of the army, the mood of Manchester United's young players slowly calmed down and continued to besiege Stoke City according to the tactics of pre-match training.

When the morale of the army was shaken after Manchester United hit the third post, Stoke City manager Pulis was ready to put in his forces on the counter-attack, but he was hesitant to wait for him to make up his mind. United quickly stabilized their morale, and Pulis sighed that the opportunity could not be missed, and he gave up the opportunity to fight back.

With 75 minutes into the second half, United replaced striker Hernandez with the dashing Gobertitar Batorbatov.

Dimitar Berbatov has been on the bench for a lot of games this season because he has not been active, and it was Hernandez who started in his place.

Now Ferguson replaced Hernandez with Berbatov, and it was not a targeted substitution, it was purely to try to change the knife, anyway, he gave Hernandez 75 minutes, and he failed to score a goal, so it is better to change the striker to see the luck.

Although Berbatov is not active enough to run, and he has no ability to press and defend, because Stoke City is stubbornly defending the penalty area, he basically has no ability to counterattack, but is most suitable for Berbatov, who is lazy but skilled.

As soon as Berbatov came on the field, Gao Xiaodong made a long-range shot from the edge of the penalty area, deducted the defender, and suddenly passed a through ball to Berbatov in the penalty area.

Because there were too many people in the penalty area, in order to prevent being cut off by the opponent, Gao Xiaodong's ball passed quickly and urgently.

In the face of such a pass, Berbatov stopped and turned around in a row and stopped the ball half a meter in front of him.

Gao Xiaodong secretly applauded, this is also passed to Berbatov, if it is Rooney, let alone turn around, it is estimated that it will stop two meters away.

Dimitar Berbatov's stop was beautiful, and after turning around, he gently swung his right foot into the bottom of the ball, which dodged the defender to block and prepare for the top right side of the goal.

The shot was just as clever and would have been blocked by a defender if Berbatov had played a boccia ball or a low flat ball.

Goalkeeper Sorensen had a magical play today, Berbatov's shot still did not escape his clutches, Sorensen subconsciously raised his fists, just hit the ball, the ball hit the crossbar again and bounced down, and was kicked out by Huth.

It's the goalpost again!

This is already the fourth goalpost!

Manchester United fans couldn't stand it, how bad luck it must have been, two posts for one, and two goals ahead.

The United players also began to smile bitterly, and even their old team-mates felt that the luck of the day was really bad.

In a football game, it is normal to have two or three goals, like a game is not over, and four posts are hit, even a veteran like Paul Scholes has never encountered such a situation.

"Calm down!

"Be patient!"

'Hitting the post means we're closer to scoring!'

"More passes to Berbatov!"

……

Scholes and other veteran players beckoned their teammates to patiently organize the attack and find Berbatov for this point.

In the 80th minute of the game, Valenciala dodged an angle on the side and crossed directly.

Berbatov is much taller than Wayne Rooney and Hernandez, while Nemanja Vidic has also pushed into the box and has improved his chances of landing in the middle.

Berbatov was the first to judge where the ball would fall, and he got stuck before he could get to the defender and wanted to jump to head the ball.

But Stoke defender Hutter was a step slower, but how could he make Berbatov jump, Hut clung to Berbatov's shirt with a hard hand underneath.

Berbatov was not one of those explosive beasts, and he found that even if he jumped, he would not be able to touch the ball, so he simply fell into the box.

Immediately after falling to the ground, Berbatov raised his hand and shouted for a foul on his opponent and asked the referee for a penalty.

When the Manchester United players found Berbatov on the ground, they immediately raised their hands and shouted a foul.

Hute must have fouled Berbatov, but most of today's scrambles are in the penalty area, if such actions are fouled, there are too many penalties that need to be awarded, plus human beings have the psychology of sympathizing with the weak, the referee did not award a penalty, he signaled the game to continue.

Due to the distraction of the Manchester United players, they did not rush to the landing point in the first place, and the ball was easily headed by the Stoke City defender to his striker Jones.

When Jones' header was given to Pennant and Pennant was unpressed, the Stoke players immediately sensed it was a good opportunity to counter-attack and finally went on a big shot, with four or five players running towards United's half.

Because Stoke City's defense is too contracted, just inside and outside the penalty area, Manchester United defenders are almost all in Stoke City's half, so that Stoke City's pass does not need to be considered offside at all, and when you see that player is in a good position, you just need to pass it.

Although Pennant is good at dribbling, he knows that Stoke City has very few counter-attacking opportunities today, so he did not stick to the ball and passed to Jones, who was at the front.

Jones had plenty of space in front of him and he picked up the ball and kicked forward quickly across United's half.

Manchester United was actually prepared for Stoke City's counterattack, Ferdinand and Rafael stayed behind, but just because Berbatov was fouled, everyone's attention was on asking for a penalty, and there was no first pressing, allowing Stoke City to easily pass the ball three times.

In the counterattack, the opponent's successful three passes were very fatal, when Jones ran forward, Rafael chased desperately, Ferdinand blocked Jones's possible pass direction while running, Gao Xiaodong, Skorco, Valencia and Nani also returned to the defense as fast as possible.

Stoke City's counter-attack was well timed, and although United went all out to defend back, they were still a step slower, and by the time Jones brought the ball to the front of the Manchester United penalty area, Stoke City had already formed a three-on-two situation in front.

Manchester United fans were stunned, it was more than 80 minutes, and if Stoke City scored, Manchester United would basically be in the driver's seat.

Ferguson also hissed in a hurry, allowing Rafael to foul tactics.

Of course, Rafael wanted to foul, but there was too much space at the back for United, and Jones kept changing direction with the ball, and he found an opportunity to foul.

However, Jones exposed a technical disadvantage when passing, and in a two-on-three opportunity, his cross was actually passed behind the follow-up striker Watkins.

Watkins had no choice but to stop waiting for the ball, which gave Rio Ferdinand a chance to take the risk of a flying tackle and barely touch the ball.

Watkins tripped over but didn't fall to the ground, he quickly steadied his center of gravity and went to chase the ball again.

United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar and Rio Ferdinand worked well together, and when Rio Ferdinand made a flying tackle, he tried to move forward, and when the ball was broken and Watkins went to chase it, Van der Sar made a quick move to kick the ball off the touchline before Watkins.

After the ball flew off the sideline, the Manchester United fans in the stadium let out a loud gasp, and at this time their hearts were put in their stomachs, it was too dangerous just now, and Manchester United was simply hanging by a thread.

Pulis is very regretful, he punched the windshield hard, a game is such a good opportunity to win, but his players did not grasp it, and the old Manchester United may not give such a chance again.
