2:0。

The scores on the big screens were grim, last year's Champions League winners suffered a waterloo here, and at Old Trafford, United could still hold on to Manchester United, but today they didn't seem to be able to.

The stunning performances of Ronaldinho and Zheng Zhi have caused Manchester United unprecedented difficulties.

Want to score two goals in a row?

Want to score two goals in a row without Zheng Zhi and Ronaldinho continuing to play?

How do you kick this?

Now there's nothing you can do to stop Leverkusen's attack, attack?

"In fact, Dennis Owen's performance is still good, but Ronalno's performance is too amazing, and Zheng Zhi joins the attack, Manchester United is tragic. Fiorentina and Bordeaux are draws for the time being, which is good news for Manchester United. ”

'Somebody has to step up at this point, like David Beckham's free-kick and Ryan Giggs can play on the left.

"Scholes and Keane are going to step up, too."

"I can't really say what Manchester United are going to do next, because they are Manchester United after all. Ferguson is in a hurry on the sidelines right now, and his face is full of anger. Will there be a miracle this time? ”

The game resumed, and Bayer Leverkusen's formation did not pull back, continuing to fight with Manchester United's midfielder.

Scholes and Keane didn't dare to play too carefully in the middle, trying to hit Leverkusen's back after three short passes, and this overly simplistic tactic did not threaten Leverkusen's defence.

Manchester United have never been a team with a lot of coordination and technique, and they often don't have the upper hand in possession in strong conversations, but they are incredibly capable of creating a lot of attacking chances. The core of these opportunities is to play a quick counterattack, and positional warfare is to play a big game to divert the ball, the purpose is to hit the weak link with few people, and use the speed advantage to bully the opponent.

But......

It doesn't work today.

Bayer Leverkusen have two goals in hand, they have the advantage, and the midfield has the advantage, they are not in a hurry. No matter how Manchester United moved, they couldn't find a breakthrough.

Originally, Giggs's breakthrough was a killer feature, but Zheng Zhi assisted in the defense here, which made Giggs's power drop too much, but Beckham kept sending crosses here to be more realistic. However, Bayer Leverkusen's defence was well prepared and focused on defending high balls, and United's two-man striker did not take advantage of it.

Ballack in the middle retreated and continued to harass Keane, who pressed up, and Keane's role must have weakened a lot, not to mention that there were Emerson and Zheng Zhi sweeping behind.

Although Ronaldinho's defensive ability is very weak, no one dares to ignore his existence, and more importantly, he always cruisses on the right side like a thorn, Manchester United's left side can't play the usual threat at all, as for Beinrich's side, more often than not, it is to cooperate with the team's defense, and Leverkusen is now only on the right side!

It's overstretched.

Keane didn't get rid of Ballack after rushing back and forth in the middle a few times, on the contrary, Ballack was shaking in front of his eyes at any time, and he always felt like a big mountain was coming at him at any time.

Central partner Paul Scholes almost spared no effort to run around the pitch, avoiding not only Zheng Zhi but also Emerson, trying to find a gap by constantly running.

But Zheng Zhi and Emerson's running ability and coverage are no worse than him. It's not that easy in the middle!

From time to time, Giggs drew fire, but Scholes didn't take advantage of it.

More than 20 minutes later, with the first half coming to an end, United struggled to create a goalscoring opportunity.

Busy in vain.

And what worries Ferguson is that Bayer Leverkusen is not really playing at all in the attacking end now, and is just playing around with Manchester United in the midfield, how long has the Brazilian not rushed?

Scholes gasped for air, his eyes still scanning his teammates.

It was one of the most tiring first halves he'd played because he was running around widely, looking for chances.

As long as the first half is not over, it is impossible for him to stop.

He finally saw Beckham.

Beckham was in a strange position, giving way to Gary Neville, who was cutting forward at high speed, and trying to cut diagonally down the middle.

Scholes didn't hesitate and slipped the ball straight towards Beckham, Gresco didn't get to the middle in time because he had to deal with Neville, and Beinrich ran back, but he couldn't make a difference behind Beckham.

Of course, when Beckham stopped the ball, Emerson arrived just in time and Emerson noticed Belham's diagonal cut. He doesn't think Beckham is capable of anything, as long as he doesn't let him pass the ball easily.

Sure enough, Beckham got up and pulled the ball out of the instep of his right foot, which looked like he was going to pass the ball over the heads of York and Cole.

but

The next second the ball flies, the arc makes people look very wrong!

"What?!"

"This ball!"

"Shot?!"

The moon cutlass did make a strong arc into the Leverkusen penalty area, but instead of spinning towards York and Cole, it was in the top left corner of the goal!

He's shooting!

Marty Sek didn't expect Beckham to hit the door suddenly, and his eyes kept falling on the sky above York and Cole.

But when the ball flew quickly, it was already spinning wildly towards the upper left corner of the goal.

At this time, he couldn't catch up with the horse, and when his right foot quickly moved a step, the ball was already hanging in the upper left corner of the goal.

"Alas!"

"The ball is in!"

"David Beckham,"

"The full moon scimitar is out of the sheath, no one is invincible!"

'It was such a surprise and it was so beautiful that goalkeeper Matisek couldn't do anything about it. There is no problem with his position, but he didn't expect to be attacked by Beckham like this. ”

'It's no different from his usual shots from set-pieces.'

"It's worthy of the Golden Globe level!"

A smile crossed the corner of Beckham's mouth, and that smile seemed to be able to enchant all women in the world.

At this time in England, Manchester United fans in front of the TV went crazy in an instant.

It was still the most handsome man in the world who saved Manchester United!

……

……

The Bayer Arena was silent and the Bayer Leverkusen fans were stunned by Beckham's goal. Only this time it wasn't a free-kick, it was a goal from a sports battle.

In the first leg, David Beckham used a set-piece to equalise for Manchester United, and it was he who stepped up and pulled a goal back for the team today.

This ball, it's so important. Now there is only one goal left, and although the situation of Manchester United is still passive, at least Manchester United can see the light of day again, right?

On the sidelines, Ferguson clenched his fists tightly in celebration, his old face flushed, his eyes were like torches, and he certainly saw hope and seemed to have found a way to deal with Bayer Leverkusen.

"Alas,"

"It's so painful to lose this ball."

"David Beckham's right foot, tsk ......"

"I'm convinced."

Even Bayer Leverkusen fans were impressed by Beckham.

"Zheng Zhi,"

"The man who got the applause at Old Trafford wasn't good enough, at least compared to the hat-trick in the first leg, today's performance can only be described as mediocre."

The mentality of Leverkusen fans is still very relaxed, of course, their requirements for Zheng Zhi are too perverted, Zheng Zhi, who instigated a goal and completed an assist, his performance can only be average? That's too much to ask.

Fans have long raised the bar for him......

The first half ended with a score of 2-1, with United clawing back a point just before half-time.

The Bayer Leverkusen players were relaxed and Ronaldinho came off the pitch to discuss Beckham's surprise lob with Zheng Zhi.

"This ball is awesome,"

"But I too."

"I can do it too."

"I don't think their goalkeeper is in a good position, so we can try it in the second half?"

"Try?"

"It's okay~"

On the Manchester United side, the expressions on everyone's faces are still very serious, and their steps are also very fast, no one dares to drag their feet, because they don't know what will happen in the dressing room, and the one who returns to the dressing room at the latest, will be sprayed with bloody by Ferguson. So they poured into the locker room almost as a group.

Ferguson was already in front of the tactical board.

Rarely, he didn't spray?

After glancing at it, and seeing that everyone had arrived, he immediately explained in front of the tactics board.

"Ryan,"

"In the second half you have to be determined to cut inside with the ball,"

"It's not that you're going to be able to break through,"

'We're going to take set-pieces,'

"Everybody else has to put the ball at the feet of York and Cole,"

'We have to create more set-pieces in front of the box and we put too little pressure on them in the first half. He circled the area around Bayer Leverkusen's penalty area with his pen.

"David,"

"Well done."

The lord's eyes fell on Beckham, and he finally praised him. At the same time, it can be regarded as explaining to him, and I hope he can continue to take advantage of his chances in the second half.

These days, Beckham and Keane are discussing a pay rise with the club, Ferguson has been avoiding it, and the two have been holding their breath to play. For Keane, Ferguson is ready to deal with it, but Beckham? He didn't even make contact with his agent, but David Beckham saved Manchester United today.

"The referee's decision was lenient,"

'We can be more aggressive up front, either we get past or we foul us, even if we foul, it's nothing.'

"Dennis, the Brazilians are still going to hand it over to you."

"Roy, try to cut him off from the Brazilians."

"The two of them can't get too close. God knows what they're going to do? ”

"Zheng in particular, he must have an idea, I don't know what it is, but it always feels like he can create new trouble."

Brazilian, referring to Ronaldinho, could not be Lucio or Emerson. And for Zheng Zhi, Ferguson has a shadow in his heart?

"Try not to force them in the middle, you have to cooperate with Ryan's assault, Paul, you have to keep running in a wide area, you have to lead their defense."
