Chapter 595: There's no hope of staying at Manchester United
"After only six minutes of play, Zhen Shaolong scored the second goal, and Manchester United's defence was useless to him! It was a quick counterattack just now, Zhen Shaolong received the ball in the midfield, broke through Ferdinand and Vidic, and successfully sent the ball into the goal! ”
"2-0, 6-3 over two legs!"
"Manchester United trailed by as many as three goals, which was the most tragic start, and it was quickly scored two goals by Zhen Shaolong, and the score was very unfavorable to Manchester United......"
The Manchester United players also came to their senses.
They were scored by Zhen Shaolong in a row, playing a little confused, the main opponent's goal speed was too fast, the game was only six minutes old, just a few waves of testing, the opponent quickly scored two goals, some Manchester United players are still in a 'how can this' mentality, after coming to their senses, they have to accept the reality, they are no longer one goal behind, but three goals behind.
How does this kick?
After the whole Manchester United team came to their senses, they were still a little confused, they came with confidence, hoping to be in James Park, and strive to achieve a semi-final reversal, the gap behind one goal was not big, but I didn't expect the other party to be really unreasonable, and scored two goals in a row at the beginning.
Now United need to score at least four goals if they want to win.
There is also something to be thankful about.
For example, after the score becomes 2-0, they have to score four goals and play a 4-2 score to eliminate Newcastle United, even 3-2, because the opponent's away goals are four, and their away goals are behind.
But, the same.
Newcastle United don't have to worry about scoring again, because the opponent scored a third goal, and they played a score of 4-3 again, and they were still able to tie the score, at least not the situation before, when there were fewer away goals and they were eliminated.
It's a small comfort.
The United players had to admit that the score was all self-consolation, it was not easy for them to score four goals, Newcastle United were not too bad defensively, they were confident of scoring goals, but it would take a lot of luck to score three or four goals.
Sidelines.
Manchester United coach Alex Ferguson also felt very helpless, he felt that Zhen Shaolong on the field was a completely unreasonable player, the game had just begun, and most of the players had not yet entered the state, and the opponent had scored two goals in a row, and they all relied on individual performance.
Breakthrough!
Fight back quickly!
The opponent made consecutive breakthroughs twice, Ferdinand and Vidic couldn't stop it, and the dribbling was a little unreasonable.
If the opponent continues to perform like this, there is no need for the game to continue.
Manchester United, definitely lost.
Ferguson frowned helplessly, looking at the game on the field carefully, in fact, losing the League Cup is nothing, he led Manchester United to win too many championships, and he didn't care about a chicken rib cup at all, the key is that he felt that he had lost control of the game, against Newcastle United, or defending Zhen Shaolong, he really didn't have much confidence.
He didn't know what to do.
Ferguson suddenly realized that he was old, so old that he had no way to play the game, and he suddenly thought of a person - old Robson.
Robson is undoubtedly one of the most successful football coaches in history and a legend in English football, even if he was diagnosed with cancer early, he still stuck to his coaching position and led a team to good results.
Robson is respectable.
However, Robson can barely maintain the team of Newcastle United in the two seasons before he retires, most of the work is handed over to the assistant coach, and there is no time to prepare for some important games, not that Robson has become lazy, but that his physical condition cannot support continuous work.
Ferguson thought of himself.
Recently, he also feels that his energy is low, and his physical condition is gradually deteriorating, even if he has a tough personality on weekdays, he knows that he is really old.
Now in the face of Zhen Shaolong's strong performance, Ferguson has a feeling of 'powerlessness', a similar feeling has never been in the past, even if the memory of Manchester United lost to the opponent, it is only the team's temporary poor performance, not that the opponent plays too well, the team has been working hard but can't defend, the meaning of the two is completely different.
"Maybe it's old ......"
Ferguson sighed, but his strong personality kept him serious in front of the camera.
————
The game on the field is back on.
Manchester United was quickly scored two goals, the players on the field were very unwilling, they launched continuous attacks, continuous offensives, so that Newcastle United penalty area wind, the midfield formation had to be compressed again and again, but it was still very difficult to defend the goal.
In the fifteenth minute, Manchester United finally scored.
Berbatov!
With a cross from the edge of the box, Berbatov managed to get on the spot and get ahead of goalkeeper Given, sending the ball into the net on tiptoe.
2 to 1, 6 to 4 in two rounds!
Manchester United chase a goal back!
"Dimitov! Berbatov! ”
"In the fifteenth minute of the game, Manchester United finally completed the goal, this goal is quite important, before Zhen Shaolong scored two goals in a row, it was a huge blow to Manchester United's morale, Berbatov's goal was timely, and the hope was retained......
'Manchester United still need three more goals, but the game has just begun, it's not over yet!'
Dimitar Berbatov's goal boosted United's morale and they found it easy to score goals, as long as they continued to attack, they could recover from three goals behind.
After the game restarted, they also continued to attack.
But......
Soon Zhen Shaolong gave them a blow to the head.
In the 21st minute, taking advantage of an opportunity to throw a sideline ball, the football was passed to the feet of Zhen Shaolong, who was standing on the right side of the penalty area, and in the face of the two defenders of the opponent, he calmly kicked the ball to the opponent's feet, and then took a step forward to rush forward.
Hasten!
Accelerate again!
In a short period of time, Zhen Shaolong rushed past the distance of five meters, and the football quickly returned to his feet, and then he took another step forward to touch the ball with the tip of the corner on the line of the small penalty area.
"Kill" is launched!
The ball rushed into the goal.
Van der Sar, who couldn't get the ball in front of the goal, could only turn his head and send the goal into the net, and he found that it was a tragedy to play, knowing that it was a match against Newcastle United, he should make excuses not to play, for example, pretending to be sick.
Right.
Van der Sar thought about it that he even told his wife.
This is not pessimism, but helplessness.
If you exclude the game with Newcastle United, his data is quite good-looking, completely called the first in the Premier League, and Newcastle United, who lost seven goals in one breath, has completely failed to catch up with him, but after playing with Newcastle United, he also knows why Cech has conceded goals in a row, Zhen Shaolong's shot has no way at all, every time the opponent has a good opportunity, he can only pray to God if he wants to pounce.
As long as he doesn't play, conceding a goal won't count against him.
"It's decided!"
Van der Sar looked at the football behind him and thought, "I'm going to play sick when I get out of the league...... When the time comes, they will say that they have a cold, a headache, or a leg ache, and let other people play anyway......"
————
"Zhen Shaolong! Third goal! ”
"7 to 4!"
"Newcastle regained the lead by three goals, the game only lasted more than 20 minutes, Zhen Shaolong completed a hat trick, his efficiency is too high, Manchester United's defense has no way for him, if it was uncertain just now, but seeing this goal, Manchester United's hope of winning is really small......"
The commentators of the game all said that they felt that Manchester United had little hope of winning, and it was conceivable how Manchester United fans felt.
After Zhen Shaolong scored the third goal, some Manchester United fans simply stood up and were ready to leave the field early, the game was less than a quarter of the way out, but it was the other side who scored consecutive goals, Manchester United looked hopeless, and they all regretted a trip to Newcastle.
Disappointed!
What a disappointment!
The Manchester United players on the pitch didn't have much confidence either, they worked hard for a long time to get a goal and the opponent seemed to score easily.
How does this kick?
Just now I was thinking that 'the opponent's next goal is meaningless', but I really just used calculations to comfort myself, the statistical significance of the goal is not as meaningful as the actual meaning, they all feel that their mentality is a little broken, and the game seems to have no way to continue.
Some United players want to finish quickly.
This kind of hopeless game is really desperate.
Sidelines.
Ferguson also knows that he will definitely lose, and he is convinced to lose, what can he do if he can't prevent the opponent in the backfield? Falling behind by three goals again is also a big blow to the team's morale, and he knows that he should not be pessimistic, but to cheer the team up, even if he loses the game in the end, he must play with morale, play exciting, and let the team find confidence.
So Ferguson came to the sidelines and waved continuously at the pitch.
"Attack!"
"Don't worry about defense! Keep on the offensive! ”
Manchester United gave it a go!
Although the game is only less than a quarter of the way through, it is not yet time to give it a go, but the game situation has not allowed to continue normally, and if it continues, Manchester United's morale will be consumed, morale will affect more than one game, and there will be many games for Manchester United in the future, the league, the Champions League, the FA Cup, each game is very important, they still have to face the league with Newcastle United, and they have to work hard to compete for the league title, it is very important to maintain morale and confidence.
The Manchester United players received the signal and knew what to do, and their faces became resolute and resolute.
Once the game restarted, the pattern was completely different.
Manchester United's attack was also very fierce before, after all, it is still necessary to pay attention to defense, and the backfield and the wing have kept three or four players for a long time, but now it has become completely different, except for Ferdinand, who patiently stared at Zhen Shaolong, other players rushed to the front court to fight.
This also allowed the game to go to extremes quickly.
Manchester United attack.
Newcastle United defend and counterattack!
The goal battle mode was completely opened, and it soon produced consecutive goals--
In the 33rd minute, C-Ronaldo broke through the cross, and Rooney scored a powerful shot in the penalty area to help Manchester United score the second goal.
In the 39th minute, Newcastle United counterattacked, Zhen Shaolong shot from the periphery of the penalty area, and the football smashed on the crossbar to let Owen find an opportunity, and Owen sent the ball into the goal with his head, 8-5.
In the 43rd minute, Barton found Owen with a hanging pass from the outside, and Owen headed to N'Zogbia who was on his heel, and N'Zogbia scored with a powerful shot from the left.
9 to 5!
It was the final score of the first half and the one that made United desperate.
Ferguson and the United players both knew that they still lost the bet in the end, and it was easy to open up and attack continuously, but negligent defending would make it easier for opponents to score.
After being four goals down, it was impossible for them to catch up.
Zhen Shaolong also took a long breath, the score became 9-5, it was basically no problem to win, and it was naturally no problem to complete the task, he hoped to use fast goals to help the team quickly lock up the win, but he didn't expect the time to drag on for so long.
"Manchester United, it's really hard to deal with!"
Zhen Shaolong sighed from the bottom of his heart, which also made C-Ronaldo, who happened to be walking next to him, his brows suddenly wrinkled into tic-tac-toe.
This guy even lamented that Manchester United is not easy to deal with?
It's deliberate, right?
"But...... Indeed, there is little hope of staying at Manchester United, and if you want to compete for honours, you have to go to a better team. But anyway, I can't be in the same league as this guy, otherwise I won't get anything. C-Ronaldo thought through gritted teeth.
"Perhaps, I should have promised Mr. Florentino!" 8)
