As the players rested in the dressing room, Ferguson analysed the first-half gains and losses for his disciples and focused on counter-attacks.

During the game, Ferguson and his assistant coaches were thinking about how to crack Tottenham's tactics and play high-quality counter-attacks.

Obviously, it is difficult to get the ball to the striker's feet smoothly by relying on Scholes, Scholes is older, his speed and reaction are slow, and his physical fitness is not very strong, and now he can't easily get rid of Tottenham's entanglement on his own.

Before the goal, Gao Xiaodong and Scholes cooperated, and the midfield organization and transition were relatively smooth, and after the goal, Gao Xiaodong retreated to assist in the defense, and it was difficult to rely on Scholes alone.

The score is ahead, the opponent is also very strong, and it is not cost-effective to keep Fletcher as a single back, after all, it is much safer to fight back than to attack.

Ferguson's strategy was very simple, he replaced Anderson, replaced the slower Berbatov, and the formation became 442, allowing Anderson and Fletcher to play in the back, Gao Xiaodong advanced the position, and organized the dispatch with Scholes.

With the exception of Berbatov, United's players were all in favour of the change, and after the first half of the battle, they did not think that it would be easy to beat Tottenham, and it would be a good idea to counter-attack against a very fast Tottenham.

Berbatov's displeasure was not only due to being substituted at half-time, but also due to the decline in his tactical position in the team this season.

Dimitar Berbatov was an absolute mainstay last season, and this season he has scored no less, even more than Wayne Rooney, and is United's second goalscorer, but he has not started as long as Wayne Rooney, and new signing Hernandez will often share his playing time.

In Berbatov's view, this is mainly because Gao Xiaodong, a midfielder, scored too many goals and was mainly anti-away, making him, the main striker last season, a chicken rib.

Therefore, Berbatov is more and more disgusted with Gao Xiaodong.

Fifteen minutes passed, and at the beginning of the second half, Tottenham played very well in the second half of the first half, although the score was behind, so Redknapp did not make any adjustments to the starting lineup and tactical play.

Tottenham's players soon found that their pressing tactics in the first half had failed.

After Anderson came on the field, Gao Xiaodong's position was no longer a midfielder, he came to a position parallel to Scholes, Nani often retreated, Rooney's running range was also very large, and there were many points around Manchester United players, and it was not so easy to force Manchester United players to pass back or make mistakes.

A little over five minutes into the second half, Tottenham continued to move widely, Lennon crossed from the wing, Crouch and Rio Ferdinand scrambled for a header, Ferdinand made a mistake in clearing the ball and the ball went to Anderson.

Anderson stopped the ball and quickly passed to Gao Xiaodong, Gao Xiaodong received the ball and stepped forward, Rooney and Nani quickly walked to the side, giving up the space in the middle to Gao Xiaodong.

At this moment, Tottenham is in the transition between attack and defense, there are fewer players to defend, and the players in the middle are taken away by Rooney and Nani, Gao Xiaodong has a lot of space to break through in the middle, which is very conducive to Gao Xiaodong's speed.

Seeing Gao Xiaodong go straight to his 30-meter area for a long time, Tottenham central defender Dawson let Nani go, quickly moved to the middle to top Gao Xiaodong, and midfielder Palacios pinched Gao Xiaodong back and forth.

Gao Xiaodong immediately passed the ball to Nani and continued to cut forward.

Nani passed back to the follow-up Scholes, who went straight behind Dawson to create a chance for Gao Xiaodong to score a one-on-one goal.

Dawson was slow to turn to Gao Xiaodong, but Gallas was experienced, and after Nani passed back to Scholes, he realised that Scholes could go through, and he left Rooney early to intercept Scholes' pass.

Tottenham goalkeeper Gomes didn't see Scholes' intentions, but when Scholes passed the ball, he immediately went for it.

Gallas had already made a prediction in advance, and Gomez also attacked in time, but Gao Xiaodong's speed was too fast, Gallas and Gomez were both one step slower, and the ball was touched by Gao Xiaodong first.

But on one side, Gallas came to grab the ball, and Gomez pounced in front of him, Gao Xiaodong had no angle and time to shoot, so he could only poke the ball to the bottom line, flashing Gallas and Gomez's sandwich.

In order to avoid Gallas and Gomez, Gao Xiaodong used a little more force, and by the time he caught up with the ball, he was almost at the bottom line, and the angle of the shot was already very small.

Gao Xiaodong can stop the ball and pass it back to the front of the penalty area and find a teammate who is inserted, but Gao Xiaodong doesn't know if there is anyone behind him, if he stops the ball, the opponent comes over and destroys, and this excellent offensive opportunity becomes a corner kick.

Between the lightning and fire, Gao Xiaodong didn't have time to think too much, he caught up with the ball, forcibly half-turned around and pumped the ball towards the goal with the outside of his right foot.

It was too difficult to shoot half-turns in this run, and Gao Xiaodong turned 360 degrees like a spinning top after shooting and fell out of the bottom line.

Gao Xiaodong was lucky, this difficult forced shot actually drew a small arc and hit the other side of the post and bounced into the goal.

When Gao Xiaodong shot, fans and players on both sides thought that Gao Xiaodong was going to pass the goal horizontally, and Nani at the back point started desperately, trying to grab this landing point, but he was still far from the goal, and the ball was almost flying against the goal line, where could he grab it.

Seeing the ball bounce into the net, there was an uproar in the stands.

"Entered!"

"Hold the grass!

"Shot at an almost zero degree angle!"

"It's blindfolded!"

"Gao often enters the world wave!"

"It's a brace!"

"2-0, Manchester United have won!"

……

"The ball is in?!" The on-site commentator stood up in surprise, "Score at a zero degree angle! Gao scored again! But is this a pass or a shot? It should be a shot, because he used the outside instep, and the ball is spun to the bottom line, so it can only be a shot! If you really shoot, this is a zero degree angle goal comparable to Basten! Gao is really a world wave professional!"

Tottenham manager Redknapp hugged his head, God! This can score! Does this guy eat clover? This angle is too small! Is God not letting Tottenham win? We have the advantage, but we can't score, Manchester United don't have the advantage, but we can score any goal, it's really unfair!

Redknapp was very angry, but Ferguson was ecstatic, he raised his fists and ran out, this is a game that seals the win, Tottenham is not easy to play, Tottenham is now a top four strong team, winning them is something worth bragging about.

In the stands, Monkey, Xiao Le, Pogba, and Beibei sat together, and when they saw Gao Xiaodong enter a world wave, everyone jumped up together to congratulate.

After the celebration, the monkey said to Pogba and Bebe: "See, this is the star, you have to have the level of a fat man, you can play the main team of Manchester United." ”

Pogba said convincingly: "This shot is really good, I can't do it for another ten years." ”

Bei Bei said: "Archery is really powerful, Brother Gao is so powerful and famous, why can't he be the captain?"

The monkey said: "The lord is old and stubborn, he doesn't know how to be flexible, he only looks at his qualifications." ”

Pogba said: "Looking at Brother Gao's contribution to Manchester United, you don't need the accumulation of qualifications to convince the public, besides, Brother Gao has a lot of friends at Manchester United." ”

The monkey said: "The captain hasn't been selected yet, I hope Xiao Dong's goal can impress the lord." ”

Pogba and Beibei both said again and again that with Gao Xiaodong's performance, they would definitely be able to impress Ferguson and make the lord change his mind.
