Chapter 627: An Unexpected Phone Call
After a detailed determination, Livermore's shot was 37 metres from goal.
Thirty-seven meters!
It's an amazing distance.
You must know that the penalty area is less than 16 meters away from the goal, and most teams defend and do not think that 30 meters away will be a threat position, if there is a player in this position, the defending side will not stop it, but will let the opponent position, because it is almost equivalent to giving the ball to the opponent.
Livermore scored the ball instead.
It's not an accidental goal, it's a goalkeeper error, a defensive error, or something like that, it's a positive goal, and the meaning is completely different, even the best long-range player in history doesn't dare to say that he can score the ball in this position.
Livermore's goal shocked the entire stadium.
After the goal was completed, all the media cameras pointed over, Livermore was the only focus, and Millwall's equaliser seemed to be nothing.
The Millwall players celebrated with excitement and marveled at Livermore's ability to score such a long-range shot, but for them it was more about equalising because they were participants in the game and winning or losing was very important.
Manchester United's side were the victims of the goal.
Ferguson stood on the sidelines and smiled bitterly, he never thought that the opposing player could score such a long-range shot, it was really long-distance, with power and angle, and Van der Sar couldn't save it in the front, which was really incredible.
Being breached by such a goal, Manchester United has nothing to say.
When the game resumed, they had to calm down and try to attack, hoping to equalise for the rest of the game, but unfortunately, Millwall defended very tightly and were very cautious in the final minutes, with Suarez rushing back to participate in the defense.
In the end, Millwall held the goal.
When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Millwall breathed a sigh of relief, and many players sat directly on the grass, with a relaxed smile on their faces.
Manchester United's ...... It's over!
In Millwall's entire schedule, Zhang Yang was most worried about this game, Old Trafford was originally the home of the devil, coupled with the impact of the World Club Cup, he didn't expect the situation to be so bad before, but fortunately, relying on conservative play, he successfully survived the score, the team's undefeated golden body is still there, and the probability of completing the task is very high.
The draw is a very satisfying result.
Zhang Yang was in a good mood and took the initiative to wait in the middle and shake hands with Manchester United coach Alex Ferguson.
There is a huge age difference between the two, but they are direct opponents in the league, and the relationship between them is extremely bad, and even on weekdays, Ferguson is very straightforward to show his dislike for Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang has nothing good to say about Ferguson, and he will never let go of the opportunity to ridicule.
The relationship between the two can be imagined.
But Ferguson still walked over and shook hands with Zhang Yang, this is a normal handshake, a polite handshake, and it is not normal in the eyes of the media--
In the past two seasons, Millwall and Manchester United have played each other five times, but Zhang Yang and Ferguson have not shaken hands normally, and the 'most intimate' time is just to touch hands, because Manchester United lost the game, and Ferguson's expression is not very good.
Now that the two teams are drawn, it seems that the relationship is better.
That, of course, is superficial.
Ferguson had no good words: "You're so lucky, a player like Livermore, and if I had the chance, I wouldn't mind having such a good player join Manchester United." ”
Zhang Yang didn't care at all, "Of course, if you can do it." "He's not worried at all.
If Ferguson poached other players, such as Maxey, Koncheski, Suarez, or even Sneijder and Morris, there was still a little hope.
But Livermore?
Livermore's long-range shooting is a testament to his trust, and if he leaves Millwall to become the manager of a Championship team, he believes that Livermore will definitely choose to leave and follow him into a new team.
Therefore, not to mention Manchester United, even if all the giants come to poach, Livermore will definitely not leave.

Post-match press conference.
Ferguson expressed his displeasure with Millwall's style of play, saying, "There is only one team in the game that is working on it, and that is Manchester United. Millwater are top of the league table, but they don't seem to have the style to be at the top of the table and have been defending for 90 minutes. ”
"If you rely on this style of play, it's easy to go unbeaten in 60 or 70 rounds."
Zhang Yang did not plan to meet with Ferguson, and went to the venue a little later, and when he learned what Ferguson said, he only said, "If our schedule changes, I believe Manchester United will play more conservatively." ”
That's just the way it is.
The media reporters in the audience all nodded their heads, Millwall's schedule is too cruel, if Manchester United encounters this kind of schedule, they may directly raise their hands and surrender, and they will not fight for 90 minutes at all.
No matter what tactics are used, a draw away from Manchester United is already quite good.
Zhang Yang did not continue to be interviewed, but left time for Livermore, who came with him, and Livermore should be the protagonist of an ultra-long-distance world wave alone.

After the game against Manchester United, it was already mid-December, and the schedule could be relaxed, considering the physical condition of the players, Zhang Yang waved his hand and gave the players two days off.
It's not easy to have two days off.
Zhang Yang told every player that they must rest well, reassemble for training, and prepare for the intensive schedule of Christmas after a round of league games, when the situation will be very difficult, it is impossible to have a holiday, even if it is Christmas, at most half a day off.
Zhang Yang wanted to use the two-day vacation to spend time with Ivanka and her baby daughter, but Ivanka insisted on going back to New York, "Christmas is coming, I should be with my family, I can't stay in London all the time." ”
Zhang Yang was very reluctant, but respected Ivanka's decision.
After sending Ivanka and her daughter away, Zhang Yang was a little embarrassed to find that he was the only one left at home, and of course the nanny and bodyguards were not counted, and there was no way to communicate with them.
When Zhang Yang was a little free, he received a phone call, looking at the number displayed on his mobile phone, he felt very embarrassed--
Denis?
How did this woman think of herself?
Zhang Yang still feels a little guilty about Denise and Catherine, since he learned that Ivanka had a child, he no longer took the initiative to contact other women, as a man, he must bear a certain responsibility, but he still can't let go of it in his heart.
Denice is better.
Denise is a strong woman, but her starting point is not too high, her hard work spirit is very respectable, and she also has a big heart and is not very likely to get into deep feelings.
Catherine ......
This violent woman's heart is very fragile, so she may be very hurt, right?
Zhang Yang thinks so.
Fortunately, their careers are developing well, and Denise's company is getting bigger and bigger, investing in several films, although it is only a small budget production, it is quite remarkable.
Catherine has also become famous in the entertainment industry, and she can be regarded as a second-tier female star.
Seeing that the two women's careers were developing smoothly, Zhang Yang's guilt was much less, and he was still surprised to receive a call from Denis, but he didn't expect to hear the other side say, "Have you forgotten that you are a major shareholder!" It's almost Christmas, and the company has an internal meeting, so it's not good that you don't show up, right? ”
"Well, I'll be free tomorrow."
Zhang Yang gave an affirmative answer.
