1033 Football is Round
Blackpool were still reluctant to move forward after being one goal down and looked to have no confidence in turning around.
In fact, this is normal, if Blackpool's fighting spirit and cohesion are strong, they will not be reduced to the bottom of the bottom.
Therefore, Manchester United's players and fans also feel that Blackpool is really broken, the mentality is a little lax, the defense is not so hard, and the offensive choices are also a little arbitrary.
Sam Allardyce is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he saw Manchester United's laxity, and immediately adjusted his plan, directly ordering his players to attack Manchester United.
Blackpool took advantage of United's passing error to launch a quick counter-attack, midfielder Adam received the ball and quickly broke through Rafael's defence, crossed from the left, Manchester United's full-back Nani seriously missed someone, and the unguarded Sosen cut into the box from the wing and fired a right-footed shot from six yards, but Soanes was a little excited in the face of a brilliant plan and actually missed the must-score goal.
Blackpool's sharp counterattack startled Manchester United, but due to inertia, they still thought that it was just Blackpool's crooked play, not the real level, and they still didn't pay attention to it.
In the 38th minute, Rafael crossed from the right, the Blackpool defender cleared and kicked Gao Xiaodong, Gao Xiaodong stopped the ball and plugged it straight, Berbatov shot low with his right foot from 6 yards, goalkeeper Kierkes struggled to save, Gao Xiaodong inserted the ball into the penalty area and was ready to shoot, but was put down by Adam.
The referee was at the edge of the box at this time, but he didn't say anything.
Although the Manchester United players felt that the victory was decided, they did not want to let go of a chance to score, and they all ran over to ask for a penalty.
Manchester United's players were also careless, they even ignored that the game was not over and the ball was still under the control of the opponent.
The United players saw the referee ignore them and turned and ran towards their own half, only to find that Blackpool's counter-attack had hit the edge of their box.
Blackpool played a beautiful counter-attack.
Striker Ponchuen distributed the ball to midfielder Wagan in the box, Wagan inserted a cross from the right rib of the penalty area, at this moment T-Fletcher was already in an offside position, Ferdinand raised his hand to signal offside, but the linesman did not raise the flag, T-Fletcher swept with his right foot from 6 yards, the ball hit the left post and bounced into the net, goalkeeper Van der Sar could not do anything about it.
1:1
Manchester United's defense was lax, the referee made consecutive mistakes, and by mistake, Blackpool equalised.
Blackpool's players and fans were thrilled and cheered as if the game had been won.
Manchester United's players and fans were very annoyed, the fans scolded the referee in the stands for being blind, and several veteran players of Manchester United also went to negotiate with the referee, indicating that there was a problem with the penalty just now.
Maybe there is a problem, maybe not, but the referee will definitely not admit it, and the Manchester United players are also very helpless, but fortunately, the initiative is still here at Manchester United, even if it is a draw, they can win the championship with the advantage of goal difference, and they do not bother with the referee.
As the saying goes, two blessings and two disasters do not go alone, and after the kick-off in the middle circle, Manchester United continued to attack, while Blackpool are now no longer defending and pressing forward again.
Manchester United controlled the ball at the back, the ball passed to Fletcher, and when Fletcher passed the ball to Scholes, he was kicked by Ponthorn's heel, the ball was a little wide, and the opponent tackled and destroyed, and then passed to the feet of Ponthorn.
Fletcher had just been kicked by Ponchuen, and there was fire in his heart, and when the ball reached Ponchuen's feet, Fletcher took revenge and made a flying tackle that knocked Ponchuen to the ground with the ball.
It was a clear revenge foul and the referee immediately showed Fletcher a yellow card and awarded a free-kick from the edge of the box.
Such a free kick is in a good position, facing the goal, and it is only 22 meters, but Manchester United is not afraid, firstly, Blackpool has no free kick masters, and secondly, Manchester United's goalkeeper Van der Sar, even if he is old, is also first-class, not a cat or a dog can break his ten fingers.
Blackpool's free-kick taker is midfielder Adam, who is not well-known on the free kick list, and he comes out to take free kicks mainly as a lame general.
Van der Sar, who is experienced, did not underestimate Adam and only focused part of his attention on the point-grabbing player to prevent Adam from passing.
Although Adam's free kick hit rate was not high, he did not choose to pass the free kick in such a good position, and after a small run, the left-footed curling ball hung straight to the top right corner of the goal.
Van der Sar judged that Adam was going to shoot directly when Adam was on the foot, and also judged the direction of Adam's shot, but Adam's free-kick was too tricky, the ball hit the right post and bounced into the net, and Van der Sar couldn't match the shot.
2:1
In the space of five minutes, Blackpool scored twice in quick succession to turn Manchester United on the back foot.
Manchester United fans were stunned, they couldn't believe their eyes.
Lakepool reversed?
God! This can't be! How is this possible?
Really? Blackpool can turn Manchester United around?
Manchester United's stands were silent.
The more than 1,000 Blackpool fans who came to watch the game couldn't believe their eyes, they stared at the scoreboard, pinched their thighs hard, God! It's true! Blackpool reversed Manchester United! 2:1...... Blackpool want to win!
The Blackpool fans in the stands went crazy, they jumped and cheered, their faces distorted with excitement.
Sam Allardyce on the sidelines also had a dreaming feeling, and while he was still fluting, he was hugged by the coaching staff and substitutes who rushed over frantically.
"Coach! We're reversing! We're going to be relegated!"
"Coach! We're going to win! Coach! It's incredible!"
"Coach, you're great!"
The Blackpool players and coaches were ecstatic, while the Manchester United players and coaches were stunned and earthy, and in an instant, they thought of a terrifying possibility of losing the title.
Manchester United are a season ahead and it would be a shame to lose the title in the final round, and it was a crucial win over Liverpool.
The on-site commentators were amazed, and they excitedly shouted: "GOALGOLAGOL...... Adam scored!2:1!A miracle could be born!Blackpool reversed Manchester United!If Blackpool won the game, they had a great chance of relegation because both of their opponents were behind!But Manchester United were very likely to lose the title because Chelsea would not be unable to win Everton in this situation! Football is truly incredible! If the whistle doesn't blow, anything can happen. ”
Manchester United's players, fans and assistant coaches were panicked, only Ferguson quickly regained his composure after shock and fear, he understood that according to the normal comparison of strength, there are still more than half of the game, Manchester United can definitely come back, just afraid of the blood in the brain, the opponent will fight back again, if the score is more than two goals, it is difficult to say.
Thinking of this, Ferguson immediately called Scholes, Gao Xiaodong, Ferdinand and Vidic over, telling them to stay calm, not to rush to attack, to attack when they have the opportunity, to control the ball when they don't have the opportunity, and wait until the end of the first half.
Although Manchester United's players were angry and wanted to launch an onslaught immediately and equalize as soon as possible, Ferguson's authority at Manchester United was unquestionable, and no one dared to disobey his orders, even if they did not understand, they had to obey them.
