Chapter 138: Five Minutes of Stimulation (Part I)

And Ferguson's substitutions are also very targeted, Arsenal's side is to strengthen the attack, and at this moment, Ferguson is obviously unwilling to play a game of eggs and stones with Wenger, after all, the leader is Manchester United, in the final stage of the game, his switching moves are all in order to be able to get all three points in the end!

Wenger made two substitutions in a row, and Ferguson, who was in a-for-tat confrontation, was even more courageous, and actually used up all three substitutions in one go.

Dimitar Berbatov, Nani and Paul Scholes were replaced at the same time, with Hernandez, Park Ji-sung and veteran Hargreaves returning from injury.

In addition to Hernandez's substitution, the other two players are characterized by outstanding running and interception ability, Ferguson's intention is also obvious, leaving Van Bizhuang and Hernandez to counterattack in the front, while Park Ji-sung and Hargreaves are to strengthen the thickness and interception ability of the midfield, Manchester United is going to turn attack to defense, and strive to maintain the one-goal lead to the end!

"Arsene Wenger's intentions are clear, to bring in two attacking players, and this is to attack at the most important time!"

"Manchester United, they have strengthened their midfield defence, is this to win and protect the victory?"

'Manchester United were the first to pull away from the big game, and it is clear that Sir Alex Ferguson has done wisely and it is time for them to protect the fruits of their victory!'

After the substitutions between the two sides, the situation on the field changed instantly.

The original evenly matched offensive battle suddenly became one side of the main attack, and the other side held on. With the injection of fresh blood, Arsenal's attack is still continuous, while Manchester United's side is shrinking the defensive line and strengthening the sweep in the middle.

Under Manchester United's intentional "concession", Arsenal gradually gained a bit of the upper hand, but in fact, the difficulty of the away team's attack has risen a little bit, Carrick can attack and defend well, and Hargreve and Park Ji-sung are players with strong running ability, these three players have built a strong fortress in front of the backfield defense, frequent sweeps, Arsenal is difficult to penetrate from the middle, which is undoubtedly a great restriction for Arsenal to play the technical flow team of ground passing.

Therefore, Arsenal seem to be attacking continuously, but more often than not, it is difficult to create a substantial threat to the Manchester United penalty area with a protective cover.

Time passed quickly, and Wenger's brows on the sidelines were getting tighter and tighter, and anxious expressions appeared on his face, and he began to shout and gesture from the sidelines, signaling the team to play more concisely.

Ferguson sat firmly on the Diaoyu Tai, with a look of wisdom beads in his hands.

"Manchester United, which has contracted the defensive line, is like a hedgehog full of thorns at the moment, and Arsenal has no way to say it!"

'In front of United's impregnable defence, Arsenal's hopes of scoring are getting slimmer.

'It seems that the final score of this game will be like this, Wenger's side will not be able to stop Manchester United, and the Red Devils will step on the corpse of the record holder and embark on a new record at a higher peak!'

Playing time is running out, Arsenal's players are getting more anxious and their tactical style of play is starting to become more concise. In the case that the penetration in the middle was slow to open up the situation, they more directly hoisted the football into the penalty area and let the forwards fight for it.

Not to mention, this helpless approach really caused a lot of trouble for Manchester United. Bendtner, who is 193 cm tall, is like a pillar with his tall body, firmly rooted in the Manchester United penalty area, whether it is grabbing points or playing the ball for his teammates, he has done a very good job.

Bendtner's successes in successive aerial duels caused several chaos in the penalty area, and Ferguson was a little unable to sit still, raising his hand to look at his wrist watch from time to time, while shouting or gesturing into the field.

On the pitch, the players of the two teams are fighting fiercely, and off the field, the two coaches are also actively fighting.

And just when everyone thought that the game would end with a score of 2:1, it was another goal that was born.

This game is destined to be a stage for the "nerve knife" Diaby to be in the limelight, except for the stunning long-range shot that helped Van Persie score a goal, Diaby, who was inactive most of the time, became a key figure in the final moment of the game.

In the 88th minute, Arsenal, who had failed to make a series of low crosses, returned to their traditional tactical play, Walket formed a breakthrough on the wing, just when the defender thought he would cross directly, the little tiger suddenly swept the ball to the middle, Rosicky followed up and wanted to catch the ball, but it was a clever miss, and the football reached Diaby's feet.

Diaby, nicknamed "The Second Uncle", didn't stick to the ball and pushed it back at Rosicky's feet while he continued to run forward.

Rosicky sent the ball to Bendtner, who pulled out of the box, who kept the ball back and the ball rolled towards Rosicky again. Vidic dropped Bendtner, rushed out of the penalty area and pounced on the Czech midfielder, but Rosicky still passed with one kick, he turned slightly sideways, blocked Vidic at the same time, and the inside of his left foot was lightly blocked, and the football slashed forward, and Dibia just ran past, passed the ball, and the man and the ball went into the penalty area together.

"Continuous transfer fit! Flowing water! It's what Arsenal do best! Pretty! It's so beautiful! ”

"In the whole Premier League, I'm afraid only Arsene Wenger's team can play this kind of football, it's really pleasing to watch!"

'Dibiah got into the box with the ball and it was a great chance for Arsenal! Can you score goals? Can you score goals? Will Arsenal be able to equalise in the final moments? Diaby! Diaby! Abu...... Diaby! Shot-"

In the exclamations of the on-site commentators, in the nervous and worried eyes of the home fans, Diaby, who entered the penalty area, did not hesitate, and directly shot with his feet, and the football instantly turned into a cannonball and rushed straight to the goal.

At such close distance, Van der Sar didn't even have time to react, and when he turned around, the ball was already lying in the goal.

2:2!

With less than two minutes to go before the end of regular time, Arsenal finally tore through a series of smooth passes and finally tore through United's solid defence, and finally Diaby scored to make the score 2-2!

Diaby, who scored the goal, took off his jersey, revealing a body of strong and dark muscles, and roared like a beast.

The Arsenal players rushed up from behind and knocked him down, screaming with the same excitement!

The players of Manchester United were a little stunned, they never thought that when they were so close to victory and setting a new record, they were scored by Arsenal at the last moment, and the victory seemed to be gradually moving away from them!

At this time, the Old Trafford stadium fell into a deathly silence, with only the commentators from various television stations shouting and screaming with all their might.

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Diaby! Diaby! Abu...... Diaby! In the last moments, he saved Arsenal! The score was equalized and this game will most likely end in a draw! ”

"Neuroknife Diaby, today is Arsenal's lucky star!"

"Arsene Wenger's team will take a point away here and walk away! They will be the first team to pick up a point at Manchester United this season! ”

"Although the result is likely to be a draw, it is ...... There is no doubt that Arsene Wenger and his team have been the spoilers of the Manchester United party! ”

"In a place so close to victory, but to suffer such a result, such a blow and a gap, enough to make Manchester United players and fans as disgusted as flies!"

It was indeed as disgusting as eating a fly, Ferguson's face was full of iron, and the gum in his mouth kept chewing, revealing his depressed, helpless, and angry state of mind at the moment.

His assistant Muhrensteen watched him nervously from the side, for fear that his boss would be too excited about his emotions and something would go wrong - Mulensteen knew that Lord Fernandes's heart was not good, and even if he had a pacemaker, he was not omnipotent.

Fortunately for him, although Lord Fu was angry, he didn't have any problems with his body, but he kicked the mineral water bottle in front of him with an extremely angry kick, and he kept scolding in his mouth.

Wenger, who was not far away, was crazy with excitement, his usual elegant demeanor had long since disappeared, and at this moment he was jumping around on the sidelines with his hands folded, excited.

With a last-minute goal, Arsenal literally went from hell to heaven, and it's no wonder the professor went crazy with excitement.

But in Ferguson's view, the old Frenchman's behavior was simply a mockery and provocation against him, and Ferguson scolded and went to find a water bottle to vent his breath, took two steps, turned around again, and shouted at the venue.

"Damn it, huh?"

"Don't be discouraged! It's not the end of the world yet, and the game isn't over yet! Offensive! Offensive! ”

"Give me !! offense"

Lord Fu was also anxious, and angry scolding kept popping out of his mouth one after another.

But the effect was obvious, the Manchester United players who were still in a daze suddenly woke up, Ferdinand scooped out the football in the goal, quickly held the ball and rushed to the center circle, put the ball down, and ran back quickly.

Fan Bizhuang looked at the old man who was thundering on the sidelines, then looked at Ferdinand, turned around and clapped his hands and shouted, with the same unwilling look on his face: "Don't be stunned!" Attack, we attack! ”

……

Arsenal's celebrations were fiery and frenzied, and they seemed to want to continue the joy of survival for a little longer, and they were reluctant to return to the pitch, and finally the referee showed a yellow card to Rosicky, who was deliberately delaying time, and it was only then that the Arsenal players returned to half-time.

The game soon restarted.

Manchester United, who were beaten by their opponents at the last moment, immediately launched a surging counter-attack, while Arsenal was stimulated by the equaliser, decisively retreated, and responded positively.

Regular time finally came to an end, and a moment later, the referee raised three fingers and signaled for three minutes of stoppage time!
