After Silva was substituted, Manchester City's formation also began to retreat.

Now, in midfield, Manchester City are De Jong, Yaya Toure and Patrick Vieira. This configuration is surprising.

"Manchester City are going to play with a back three?" said Mortensen, who simply means that three midfielders defend in front of their own penalty area and build a barrier in front of the team's backline. The implementation of the three-back tactics has made the team's defensive system more perfect, especially the defense in the middle.

There is a premise that must be ignored to play three backs, that is, based on the first consolidation of defense and then consider the offense, is a very conservative choice, three backs are not a conventional formation in the arrangement, because playing three backs, it is necessary to sacrifice an offensive or partial offensive midfield, the core chain of defense in the whole formation is three backs and two central defenders behind, the defensive pressure of the fullbacks can be reduced, but the front-court offensive input of the three-back formation is also correspondingly reduced, so this is more demanding for the fullbacks' ability to insert assists.

However, now for the Manchester City team, the biggest problem is that this three-back tactic is a castrated three-back tactic, because Kompany was sent off, Manchester City in order to make up for the integrity of the backline, the midfield only has three players, that is to say, now there are only three midfielders De Jong, Yaya Toure and Vieira, there are no special offensive players.

"It's more of a bus tactic. Lineker hit the nail on the head when he pointed out that Mancini's idea was to stick to it.

Manchester City's side is going to defend to the death, and the introduction of Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs on Manchester United's side also marks Manchester United's overall attack.

One began to defend passively, the other started to attack, and the scene behind can be imagined, Manchester United formed a siege on Manchester City's goal. After Manchester City's formation began to retract and defend, United were quick to score.

Manchester United continued to fall in midfield, with the likes of Ryan Giggs and Wayne Rooney attracting the attention of City's defence.

Scholes received a knockback from Ryan Giggs, and instead of passing the ball to the men on the left again, he suddenly sent a wide deflection of the ball.

The ball flew high over City's midfield, towards City's right flank, where no one seemed to ......

"Carrick!" John. Mortenson shouted.

Scholes's vision is very broad, he makes full use of the width of the field, and the ball passed can be said to be very sharp, not only transferring the football to the weak link of the Manchester City team's defense, but also the appropriate advantage of passing the ball, the distance of the ball is just in front of Carrick where he can chase, for the Manchester City team, the most important thing is that there is no one within ten meters of Carrick's front and back!

When Manchester United scored just now, Giggs, Scholes, and Rooney were on the left side, and Manchester United's attack seemed to have a serious left-leaning meaning, so the Manchester City team also focused on defending here, but I didn't expect Scholes to see the weak link on the other side of the Manchester City team's defense.

Scholes' scalpel-like pass tore through City's defence. ”

Carrick looked up at the ball over his head, and with a hook of his foot, stopped the ball right in front of him, rolling slowly.

"Beautiful!" Lineker was full of praise for Carrick's stoppage.

"There are only two people in the box for Manchester City, Richards and Kolo Toure, and everyone else is attracted by Giggs's dribbling! Mortenson shouted.

Richards immediately rushed to Carrick, he had to press out, put pressure on Carrick, the attacking side is always in control, Carrick can now both cut inside and pass, can have a variety of options, which puts a lot of pressure on the defender's Richards.

Seeing Richards coming up, Carrick immediately made a move to pass the ball. The attacker can perform ten moves, as long as one of them can break through, and the defender, as long as he is shaken over once, then it is dangerous!

Carrick was immediately fooled, and he robbed.

Seeing Richards move, Carrick easily pulled the ball back, and then suddenly added it and swept past Richards!

Richards was shocked!

He hesitated for a second, but chose to rush towards Carrick.

Richards had just run to this side, and Carrick immediately shook his ankle and passed the ball!

Football swept over Colo Toure's head!

At the same time, a figure in a red jersey swept past Manchester City's goal.

"Boom!" cheered from the stands at Old Trafford.

"Anti-offside successful!"

"Carrick's pass and Scholes's forward cut were pretty well in sync!"

"This is Scholes' chance!!" accompanied by the roar of the commentator, Scholes stopped the ball on his chest and volleyed directly!

Manchester City's goalkeeper Joe Hart has been shifting his center of gravity just now, and he is not sure who will deliver the final blow and from which position Manchester United's attack will come!

Then he saw Carrick passing, Scholes successfully burst in against offside, he was shocked, and quickly rushed out of the door, he was going to attack, just halfway through the attack, he saw Scholes about to shoot, Joe Hart immediately moved his footsteps, and made a pounce action, but, helplessly, this time the shot was too close, and the ball was extremely fast, before Joe Hart touched the football, the football had passed under him, and rushed into the goal.

“goooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa1！”

Scholes ...... yes！itsgooooooooooooooooooooooooooa1！”

As the net trembled, the entire Old Trafford pitch boiled!

"goooooooaa1!" the commentators jumped to their feet, shouting at the top of their voices, "The ball is in! It's in! It's in! It's three-to-four! Manchester United have scored two goals in a row since the start of the second half! Now, they're only one goal behind! The score has changed from 1-4 to 3-4! They caught Manchester City off guard in the second half, scoring two goals in a row! Now, with more than 20 minutes left in the second half, there is still plenty of time for United to keep scoring, they certainly have a chance to keep scoring to equalise, and they even have to come back from behind! ”

"It's been said a long time ago, Manchester City can't lose to Manchester United! In the first half, Manchester United just took a nap, Manchester City should understand the gap between them and Manchester United by now!" said one commentator, who shamelessly said that he did not remember all the praise he had for Manchester City and the criticism of Manchester United in the first half.

'Paul Scholes' goal, he was the man behind Manchester United's equaliser!'

'City have been hit in the face! they are now only one goal ahead and more importantly, Manchester United's morale is fully up!"

'Manchester United are completely different from the first half, they showed quality that suited their identity!

In the first half of the game, especially at halftime, the commentators who were still desperately praising Manchester City and criticizing Manchester United collectively changed their faces at this time, and they did not hesitate to praise Manchester United, and gave all the words of praise they could think of to Manchester United, to the team that they criticized in the first half of the game. There is a saying, never believe in the discipline of the media...... They change their faces faster than they can turn a book.

As for Manchester City, they had a brilliant first half that had been selectively forgotten, and their brilliant performance seemed to be more of a foil to Manchester United's brilliant counter-attack.

Yang Fan watched Paul Scholes score, watched Manchester United score two goals in a short period of time, listened to the cheers from the stands at Old Trafford, and watched the crazy celebrations of Manchester United players...... This stimulated Yang Fan, he was furious, his anger was uncontrollable!

He was very dissatisfied, very dissatisfied with the team's performance in the second half, and was destroyed by the opponent to score two goals in a row when he was leading four to one, which is not an explanation that his side can accept if he is one less than the opponent. The whole team was completely stunned in the second half.

Of course, Yang Fan is even more dissatisfied with his performance, the performance of the whole team and the first half of the game are like two people, including him Yang Fan, although this is the reason why the head coach Mancini's tactics have changed overnight, one will be to press out to attack, and the other will be to fully defend, the whole team is a little chaotic. Yang Fan didn't think so much, he only knew that he was the banner of the team, and in this game, if the Manchester City team was overturned in a good situation with a two-goal lead, people would only say that Manchester United won Yang Fan's Manchester City! Who made Yang Fan the captain of Manchester City and the banner star of Manchester City.

"What are you doing with a sad face?" Yang Fan yelled at his demoralized teammates, "We are still ahead!"

He called a few players over for a meeting, first to unify their thinking, now the situation is that Manchester United's morale is high, they must continue to work hard, in this situation, Manchester City must also be desperate, the whole team has to play hard, every ball must be fought, absolutely not to give Manchester United a chance to score again.

"I'll just say one last thing. Yang Fan's expression was serious, "If we lose this game with a 4-1 lead, we will definitely become the laughing stock of England and the laughing stock of Europe." ”

Hearing his words, the other players did not speak, however, their expressions showed that everyone also realized the seriousness of the matter, the first half was 4-1 glory, which made them get carried away, but this is just a big hole, if they can't win this game in this situation, as captain Yang Fan said, Manchester City will definitely become the laughing stock of the whole Europe!

“yes！itsgoooooooooooooooooooooa1！”

At the same time as Scholes scored the ball into the goal, there was a huge cheer from the stands. All Manchester United supporters threw their arms up and jumped from their seats.

In the bar in Manchester, there are Manchester United fans and Manchester City fans, at this time, in the bar where Manchester United fans are located, there is a burst of cheers, and in the bar where Manchester City fans are located, fans hold their heads, their eyes full of regret and regret.

In the case of leading by three goals, Manchester United scored two goals in a row, which is indeed a great blow to Manchester City fans, of course, on the contrary, it is also a great encouragement for Manchester United fans.

At this time, Manchester City manager Robert. Mancini is also making a choice in his heart, whether to continue to defend solidly and strive to hold the score of 4-3, or to press out and attack, and strive to open the gap again?

In a sense, a four-to-three scoreline, Robert. Mancini was still acceptable, and a narrow win away from Old Trafford was a good result. But, Robert. Mancini is also worried that the team's pullback will be more laissez-faire for United, and it will be difficult not to concede goals once the team is driven crazy.

At this time, on the field, under the leadership of Yang Fan, Manchester City began to counterattack. For the head coach Mancini's all-round defensive tactics, Yang Fan is deeply hated at this moment, as a former Manchester United flag star, as Ferguson's proud disciple, Yang Fan knows that Manchester United and Ferguson are terrible, that old man is definitely an old hunter who pursues the victory, and Manchester United's combat effectiveness in this stadium should not be underestimated.

Now, Manchester United, who is completely crazy, can't prevent it at all!

For Manchester City, the only way to deal with it is to attack and fight for goals! One more goal than Manchester United at the end of the game is a victory.

Before Mancini could start a counter-attack, the City players on the pitch began to save themselves.

The two teams in Manchester began to play against each other, and all kinds of wonderful scenes emerged one after another.

Vieira made a long pass to Yang Fan, after Yang Fan stopped the ball on his chest, he pretended to turn around, but he was very surprised to come with a barb pass, which caused chaos in the Manchester United penalty area, and Vidic almost made his own own goal under Dzeko's tight interference, and the football hit the post and fell outside the bottom line, which shocked all Manchester United people in a cold sweat.

"A corner for Manchester City. ”

'It's an opportunity for Manchester City. ”

In a passive situation, such set-pieces are definitely scoring opportunities for the team, and City will want to take advantage of this corner and find the back of the net for Manchester United. Centre-back Colo Toure, who has a good header ability, rushed to the United goal.

But after the corner, Dzeko's header was played by goalkeeper Van der Sar, Yang Fan went up to grab the ball, he and Evra kicked each other, the football flew, Carrick's header was ferried, and the football was then cut off by Giggs, who retreated to the defense, he took advantage of the fact that the defenders of Manchester City had not yet returned to the defense, he took the ball to the midfield and made a diagonal long pass, passing the football to Scholes, who was cutting forward.

Scholes unloads the ball and crosses with his feet.

The soccer ball arcs in the air. Rounded De Jong on the ball route.

In front of goal, Berbatov completely dominated the battle with Richards and jumped high to the top with a powerful punch!

This time Joe Hart made a world-class save and he struggled to save the ball.

Zabaleta, who was then driven back, cleared the ball in a hurry, but didn't kick it far, just flew to the top of the arc and was intercepted by another Manchester United player.

"Rooney!!"

Rooney observed that Joe Hart, who had just made a save, had just gotten up. The center of gravity was still unstable, so he didn't hesitate to shoot directly from a distance!

The shot was of excellent quality and the angle was tricky, flying straight into the top left corner of the goal, and I have to praise Joe Hart, even though he had just gotten up, he still made another quality save, he flew out and rubbed the football out of the bottom line with his fingertips!

"Joe Hart !! great save! incredible save!

At this time, the person who ran back from the front court all the way back was not Kolo Toure, not Yaya Toure, but Manchester City captain Yang Fan! Seeing Manchester United counterattacking, Yang Fan desperately returned to the defense.

At this time, the Manchester City captain, who ran back to the door out of breath, hugged Joe Hart, who got up from the ground, and patted him the back to thank him for these two crucial saves.

"Guys. Yang Fan looked at the other teammates who came back from defense, and said seriously, "Hart has done the best he can, and the rest is up to us." ”

As he spoke, he strode to the front, his steps firm, and he didn't say a word more.
