Chapter 874: Losing and Losing

Liverpool knew that tomorrow was the Golden Ball Awards, so they used almost all their energy to defend Gao Xiaodong, and even cut off the passing line to Gao Xiaodong, but they didn't expect it to be blocked, and Gao Xiaodong scored with a header in the penalty area full of people.

2:0 and 1:0 are completely different concepts, strong dialogue, after scoring the second goal, it is very difficult for the opponent to turn the tables.

The on-site commentator Martin sighed: "It's still scored by Gao Xiaodong! It's too difficult to prevent Gao Xiaodong, this Chinese fat man is proficient in all 18-like weapons, no one knows what kind of weapon he will use to give you a fatal blow, 50 minutes, Manchester United leads 2:0, and the game is basically no suspense." ”

Gao Xiaodong scored the goal, and the happiest thing was Manchester United's bench, especially Pogba and Bebe, who had no idea that they would have a chance to be in the squad against Liverpool.

Although it is only an FA Cup, as long as it is a game against Liverpool, it will be a big deal, if you can play, it will definitely be a lot of attention, if you can play well in such a game, such as scoring a goal to help attack, then it is almost a goal to become famous.

However, with the status of the two of them in the team, there is basically no hope for no garbage time.

Generally speaking, there is little garbage time in strong conversations, but Manchester United have been strong this season, Liverpool has been in a slump to the extreme, and Liverpool was even beaten by Manchester United in the first double red meeting, and both Pogba and Bebe hope that this time Manchester United will seal the win early again, so that they will have a chance to play.

Manchester United and Liverpool played very close in the first half, both sides had chances to score, and Liverpool seemed to have more chances, Pogba and Bebe thought they might be out of play, but they didn't expect that at the beginning of the second half, Gao Xiaodong smashed a header and almost sealed the win, and their chance came again.

"Brother Gao is amazing!"

"Brother Gao is awesome!"

"Beautiful!"

"World Wave!"

Pogba was the first to burst off the bench and cheered on the pitch.

Ferguson was also clenching his fists to celebrate, he looked at Pogba and Bebe who were celebrating wildly, and said in his heart, now is not the time for you to play, Liverpool is really not easy to play today, and they may not give up after two goals behind.

Ferguson was right, two goals behind, Liverpool did not give up, manager Dalglish substitution, Rodriguez was replaced by Babbel to strengthen the impact on the United penalty area.

Liverpool, led by captain Steven Gerrard, then launched a fierce counterattack against Manchester United.

In the 60th minute of the game, Gerrard took the ball and made a cooperation with Babel, Babel pulled the side and knocked it horizontally to Gerrard, Gerrard missed the ball and wanted to leak it to Meleles who was inserted in the middle.

But Gao Xiaodong had already set his sights on this line, and he quickly grabbed it and stole the ball that Gerrard had missed.

Gao Xiaodong broke the ball and wanted to pass the ball to Scholes to launch a counterattack, but Scholes was blocked by Liverpool's players, and Gao Xiaodong had to turn around and dribble the ball himself, looking for a better counterattack line.

Gerrard played very unhappily today, he was determined to avenge the last bloodbath, but he was scored by the opponent's blitzkrieg in the opening game, and then hit a post, this time the ball was cut off by Gao Xiaodong.

Seeing Gao Xiaodong counterattack with the ball, Gerrard quickly rushed over from the side back to steal.

Gao Xiaodong had already seen Gerrard through the wide perspective of the super glasses, he stepped on the ball and stopped suddenly, then turned around and used a Marseille slalom to shake off Gerrard.

Gerrard saw Gao Xiaodong easily walking forward with the ball, and suddenly became angry in his heart, he sprinted two steps, and gave Gao Xiaodong a flying tackle from behind.

Gerald's flying shovel action was very fierce, and he directly showed out the spikes, which was a bit like he was going to abolish Gao Xiaodong.

This time it was a shovel behind his back, Gao Xiaodong didn't see it, and he didn't guard against it, and he was shoveled to the ground at that time.

This kind of tackle hurts ordinary players a lot, but it doesn't matter to Gao Xiaodong, but Gao Xiaodong doesn't want to make the opponent feel better, he fell to the ground, and immediately rolled and howled with his legs, as if his legs were broken.

Gerrard's tackle is not hidden, right under the nose of referee Webber, if Gao Xiaodong did not suffer any damage and climbed up directly, Webber can also be lightly punished by Gerrard, but Gao Xiaodong looks like a broken leg, Webber does not dare to fool, the core of Manchester United was tackled and broke his leg in front of him, it must be explosive news after the game, Webber does not want to be the target of public criticism.

Beep!

Webb's whistle blew and he then pulled out a red card for Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard.

Those who saw Gerrard's action had already considered the consequences, but it was superstar Gerrard who tackled, and many people wondered if the referee Webb would be merciful.

However, Webber did not look the other way on Gerrard and showed a red card.

Gerrard just committed a passionate foul, and regretted it after the foul, seeing that Webber really showed a red card, Gerrard didn't make any more excuses, he just glared at Gao Xiaodong fiercely, turned around and left the court, and went straight to the locker room.

On-site commentator Martin sighed: "Gerrard played a little anxious today, he wanted to avenge the last fiasco, his mentality was unbalanced, if Liverpool failed again, he would have to bear at least half of the blame." ”

Liverpool's new manager Dalglish saw Gerrard being sent off, his face immediately darkened, for him, it doesn't matter if he loses, it doesn't matter if he scores 2:0, as long as he scores another goal, it will be a good result, but Gerrard is sent off, and there will be trouble in the future, in case of another tragedy, he can't afford to lose this person as a new coach.

Dalglish immediately made another substitution, replacing Kuyt with Shelvey to strengthen the midfield.

At this time, Manchester United's team doctor came on the field and carried Gao Xiaodong to the field for treatment on a stretcher.

Gao Xiaodong only scratched his socks by shoe spikes, and his legs and feet were not damaged in any way.

When the team doctor told Ferguson the results of the examination, Ferguson looked at the electronic scoreboard, and the time showed that 63 minutes had passed.

Undoubtedly, Gao Xiaodong is an indispensable member of Manchester United, but now Manchester United is 2 goals ahead of its opponent Liverpool, and Liverpool is missing their core captain Gerrard, so Manchester United will definitely not be worse than Liverpool even if there is no Gao Xiaodong.

Ferguson groaned slightly, and immediately made a decision, he said to Gao Xiaodong: "The overall situation has been decided, you come down and take a rest, take a shower, and go to Switzerland with Manager David, I will go again tomorrow." ”

Gao Xiaodong also understands that it doesn't matter if he plays or not now, and Liverpool, who plays one less, can't make any more waves, but Gao Xiaodong said: "It's not bad for this time, I'll play for a while." ”

Ferguson pressed Gao Xiaodong's shoulder with his hand, "No need, Liverpool hates you now, I think it's better for you to take a break." ”

Gao Xiaodong glanced at Pogba and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”

Pogba saw Gao Xiaodong being replaced, and looked at Ferguson with blank eyes, the current situation, his offensive and defensive midfielder is actually more hopeful than Beibei's striker

However, Ferguson had no intention of letting Pogba play, he turned his head and asked Carrick to change his clothes, warm up, and prepare to replace Gao Xiaodong on the field.

Gao Xiaodong saw Pogba's disappointment, he smiled and patted Pogba's thigh to calm his breath.

Pogba smiled a little embarrassedly, he felt that he might be in a hurry, after all, this is a double red meeting, although 2 goals lead, but giving him a rookie half an hour is still a bit high, and it is good to have a 10 to 15 minutes of playing time.

After Carrick came on the field, Manchester United controlled the midfield, patiently and Liverpool, Liverpool played one less, even sharp, still looking for opportunities to score, but without Gerrard, Liverpool's strength is more different than Manchester United, they are difficult to enter Manchester United's penalty area, more with long-range shots to threaten Manchester United's goal.

In the 80th minute, Ferguson made another substitution, this time replacing the veteran Paul Scholes with Pogba, who was just 18 years old.

When Pogba came on the field, Gao Xiaodong patted his ass and said: "The opportunity is here, perform well, don't be afraid of mistakes." ”

Pogba excitedly said to Gao Xiaodong: "I will definitely seize the opportunity"

Almost everyone thinks this is a time-consuming substitution, and they don't think that Pogba can do anything as a young player, but after Pogba came on the field, he ran back and forth in the two penalty areas with two long legs, and he was very active in attack and defense.

In the 88th minute of the game, Manchester United fullback Rafael crossed, the Liverpool defender cleared the ball, Pogba stopped the ball on his chest, and saw that the opponent did not come to press, he took a step and shot directly with his feet.

The ball went straight to the corner of the goal.

Liverpool goalkeeper Reyna didn't expect the young man to dare to play so much, he couldn't react and the ball flew into the net against the post.

3:0.

Paul Pogba came off the bench to seal the win for Manchester United.
