In the dressing room at midfield, Hoddle criticised the lack of concentration of the defenders in the final stages of the first half. At the same time, he also signaled the players to pay attention to the attack in the second half. After all, a one-goal advantage is not enough to ensure victory!

In the dressing room of the visiting team, Ferguson naturally criticized several mistakes at the backline. However, he still focused on how to play the second half well!

The fifteen-minute break passed quickly, and the players from both teams returned to the court.

Although it was almost halfway through the afternoon, the sun had not yet set, and it was Tottenham's turn to fight against the sun!

Feeling the dazzling sun, Chen Xi felt that the impact on an offensive player like him might not be very big, but for a defensive player, as long as he was interfered with once, it might be a fatal mistake!

At the beginning of the second half, Manchester United launched a fierce attack!

It seems that they have been blown by Ferguson's "hair dryer" in the midfield.

In the opening wave of attacks, Ryan Giggs's volley after cutting inside from the left left left left shocked Tottenham fans into a cold sweat.

Fortunately, the ball eventually grazed the post and went wide of the goal!

Soon, Manchester United made a comeback.

David Beckham dribbled the ball down the left flank, and when he was on level with the corner of the box, he crossed the ball to the middle of the box before Ziggy defended!

Scholes received the ball and faced the defense of Flender, he slowly dribbled sideways to find an opportunity, and suddenly, with a twist of his right ankle, he uncovertly rubbed the ball into the penalty area!

There was little reaction to Scholes' pass. But Ridley King's side Fanny suddenly plugged in like a shark that smelled blood!

"Wonderful pick! Vanney inserts into the box! ”

Keller chose to attack at the first time, but he faced the king of the penalty area, Ruud vanney!

The Dutch striker was incredibly calm after receiving the ball, and when Keller blocked a large part of the angle of the shot, Ruud van Nistelrooy kicked the ball between Keller's outstretched legs with a push!

“it`s~a~goooooooooooal！！！ Van ~~~~~~~ Nistelrooy!! The king of the penalty area faced Scholes's clever pass and cut in in time to send the ball into the net with a crotch ball to help Manchester United equalize the score! It's incredible, it's only six minutes into the second half! With two goals down, Manchester United showed their strength and heritage, and stubbornly equalized! ”

The Millennium Stadium in Cardiff was now a place of celebration for Manchester United's fans, who were joined by a number of neutral fans.

Ferguson, who was on the sidelines, also jumped up from the coach's bench, and his vigorous posture made it impossible to see that he was an old man who was about to be sixty-two years old!

Hoddle, in front of the other coach's bench, was so angry that his face turned green. The two-goal lead was wiped out in a snap of a finger, who could stand it?

Ruud van Nistelrooy rushed to the side of the stands with his arms outstretched, and then received the cheers of the fans with open arms. His teammates also gathered around and joined in the celebration.

At the same time, Chen Xi and his teammates were dull. The lead of two goals was tied, so naturally I couldn't be happy!

Manchester United's celebration was crazy but it didn't waste much time, after all, it was just a draw, they wanted a win, a championship!

After the game restarted, Manchester United wanted to take advantage of the victory to chase down, Tottenham Hotspur wanted to fight back, and the two teams formed an offensive momentum for a while!

Chen Xi also broke through Roy Keane's defense with the cooperation of Redknapp, but his powerful long-range shot was saved by the shameful and brave Butters!

In the next round of attack, Paul Scholes responded with a powerful long-range shot from Tottenham. However, Keller, who had been prepared for a long time, also knocked the ball out of the penalty area with both fists!

Then Robbie Keane and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer each had a very dangerous shot on goal, but neither could change the scoreline!

This balance between the two teams was shattered in the twentieth minute of the second half!

Giggs didn't break through to the bottom line after winning the ball on the left, but took a few steps back and hit the middle!

Suddenly, two strikers, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, on the edge of the box, slid into the ribs of the box.

The two central defenders subconsciously followed them, but a huge blank area was revealed in the middle of the penalty area, and Giggs sent the ball to this blank area!

Scholes, who was originally hovering outside the penalty area, appeared in the penalty area in time, and just as he was about to consider the next move after receiving the ball, he felt a soft foot and fell into the penalty area!

"Oh~~~ Keller made a swoop to Scholes, will the referee award a penalty?"

Beep~~~ The referee's sharp whistle sounded, and at the same time ran to the penalty area, pointing his hand at the white dot twelve yards from the goal!

"Penalty! The referee awarded a penalty! Manchester United have a chance to overtake the scoreline! The second half was a sea change! ”

The stands were in a state of chaos, with Tottenham fans booing or shouting at the referee, while United fans applauded the referee's decision and asked the referee to give Keller a red card!

The referee only gave Keller a yellow card, and it takes courage to award a penalty in such a crucial final, and if you give a red card, you will be the protagonist of the game after the game. That's not a good thing for the referee!

"Mr. referee, I just went for the ball and I pounced on it! It shouldn't be a penalty! Even so, Keller argued unrelentingly.

Several other Tottenham players also gathered around in the hope that the referee would take back his fate.

But at this time, even if the referee really makes a mistake, he must grit his teeth and persist to maintain his dignity as a referee. What's more, he just saw clearly that Keller was indeed fouled. So he just pulled out of the Tottenham players, signaled for the United players to get out of the box, and at the same time asked Keller to be ready to take the penalty!

The arguments were fruitless, and the Tottenham players had to accept the fact that they could now only hope that Keller would save the penalty or that Ruud van Nistelrooy would just kick the ball away.

Ferguson, who was on the sidelines, was already standing on the sidelines with an excited face at this time, and he thought that he was about to witness a big comeback soon, just like last season!

At this time, Hoddle was venting his frustration with scolding, and he couldn't accept the reality that his team was about to be reversed by the other party!

Scholes, who created the penalty, and his teammates high-fived it one by one, while Dutch striker Ruud van Nistelrooy received the ball from the referee and prepared to take the penalty!

As the team's top scorer, Ruud van Nistelrooy is also the team's penalty taker. Although he has a record of missing penalties, that doesn't stop him from carrying the burden in this crucial final!

After setting the ball, he exited the box and waited for the referee's whistle!

Beep~~~ The referee's whistle finally sounded!

At this time, Manchester United fans are waiting with bated breath to score. Some Tottenham fans booed in the hope of disrupting Ruud van Nistelrooy's shot!

Ruud van Nistelrooy only had the goal in front of him at this time, and the fans' interference did not have any effect on him!

Finally, his left foot stepped on the side of the ball and his right foot pushed the ball to the right side of the goal!

Almost at the same moment, Keller also pounced on this side!

At this time, the fans of both teams began to pray, Tottenham fans hoped that Keller could save the goal, and Manchester United fans hoped that the ball would fly into the goal before Keller!

In the end, the United players got their wish, and Keller couldn't stop the ball from flying into the goal!

“gooooooooooal！！！ Van ~~~~~~~~ Nistelrooy!! His penalty power and angle were excellent, and even if Keller judged the right direction, he was still helpless! Manchester United have completed an incredible comeback! With two goals down and three goals in a row, are they going to repeat last season's comeback against Tottenham? ”

The Manchester United fans, who had just been nervous, were finally able to burst out without reservation, and now their team was ahead. Some neutral fans were also cheering for the crazy comeback. Only the Tottenham fans were left there!

Ferguson on the sidelines looked very calm this time in the face of Ruud van Nistelrooy's penalty, just smiling and waving his two fists. In his opinion, the next step is to fall into his rhythm!

Hoddle, who was in front of the other coach's bench, was standing on the sidelines with a blank face at this time, because the game was out of his control. Being overtaken by the opponent by two goals behind, this situation was not in his pre-match preparations!

This time, Ruud van Nistelrooy and his team-mates were finally able to celebrate as they finally took the lead, and if the scoreline remained until the end, they would have won the Carabao Cup!

At the same time, the faces of the Tottenham players were written with frustration written all over their faces. They can finally understand what it was like for the Liverpool players to be beaten by them last time. There is only one person who doesn't think so, and that is Chen Xi!

Chen Xi didn't speak, but just ran back from the front court by himself, then fished out the ball from the goal, and then silently ran to the middle circle and placed the ball on the white spot.

From beginning to end, he didn't say a word, but his movements were watched by his teammates. His actions are also a reminder to his teammates that the game is not over yet, and that now is not the time to shed tears. Attacking and scoring goals to regain the lead is what a man should do!

Thinking of this, the Tottenham players are back in spirit! There are still more than 20 minutes left in the game, and it is obviously early to admit defeat!
