Chapter 394: Final Response
"Di-!" "Shhh
A whistle blew and the crowd booed, with Rossetti interrupting the game and showing Paul Scholes a yellow card.
Ginger didn't argue, but quickly pulled Volcotra up and gave him a slap on the buttocks, which was an apology.
Walcott originally planned to pretend to be dead on the ground, but his predecessor, who was a big man in the history of England, came to pull him in person, and Walcott could only scream a few times, which was considered 'finished'.
The game of gladiatorial fighting, the game of absolute gladiatorial fighting.
As Mortensen analyzed, Wenger sent Nasri to strengthen the control of the midfield, advance the defensive line, and turn the passive into the active.
And the effect of this change is extremely obvious.
The five-man midfielder, interspersed with each other, took the ball and played the ball in a variety of ways, making it take five to six seconds more time for United to grab the ball every time than before.
What's even more terrifying is that Arsenal's counter-robbery, they can form a bag and block in the shortest possible time.
Manchester United's two-man midfield is functioning normally, and it is simply difficult to get the game.
And their physical exertion, in the rapid consumption, is becoming more and more difficult to grab, and the foothold of Arsenal's midfield is becoming more and more solid.
At the same time, the Manchester United are getting bigger and bigger. In the space of just three minutes, Paul Scholes and Fletcher each paid a yellow card.
At this moment, Manchester United's midfield is even more difficult to maintain.
Ferguson was anxious and angry, pacing back and forth on the sidelines over and over again.
At the last moment, he could never have imagined that his old rival would regain the initiative in the game.
The old man was unwilling, extremely unwilling, but there was no one available in his hands, and the substitutions had been used up.
Time is slipping away little by little, and with stoppage time on the horizon, Ferguson can't wait any longer...
"Wayne, you put it in front of Dimita and let Dimita play behind you. Tell Cristiano and Carlos to take it back a little bit. ”
Nasri made a mistake with a return pass and went out of the touchline, and Rooney was anxious to throw the ball and attack, but was told by Ferguson.
"I understand."
As soon as Rooney's head cleared, he immediately understood what his boss meant, and quickly nodded.
4411, when Wenger made the 451 formation change, Ferguson did not want to use this formation.
In that case, it means that his side attack is greatly reduced, and the two-way take-off tactic arranged by his midfield will lose its effect.
And the scene of Belbetov and Rooney slamming the door no longer exists.
The attack will be played back to the middle, defending head-on, Arsenal is not weak, and it is difficult for Manchester United to play a fluid attack like Arsenal.
Ferguson was unsure how he would play. Therefore, he did not choose to change the formation before, and still hoped to use the two wings to open up.
But the current situation is that the midfield is completely out of position, and the ball can no longer come out, but after the Arsenal midfield is established, they can play attack.
He knows very well the quality of Arsenal, especially the quality of their midfield, the Spaniard.
When Scholes got older, Ferguson was a little jealous of Wenger, jealous that Wenger had Cesc Fabregas and could help him support the midfield organization.
And with the rise of Ronaldo, the jealousy in Ferguson's heart turned into disdain.
He has an attack in the middle, he has a wing to fly, and his results are much better than him, and he can still beat him.
Ferguson also slowly pressed the kind of coveting of Fabregas, but felt that if he had the other side, he would delay the opportunity to attack on the side, so he saw it.
But after these few encounters, especially these few minutes of torment, Ferguson once again had that covetous heart.
Reasonable scheduling, skillful ball control, comfortable passing...
Coupled with the Oriental descendant who defied the sky and couldn't run to death, the two of them connected their feet and firmly controlled the initiative of the game under their feet.
Not only did he bring Arsenal's midfield back to life, but he also took advantage of his team's numerical and technical disadvantages to regain the initiative.
If it weren't for the fact that their fitness had reached a bottleneck, the ball probably wouldn't have been able to be controlled only in the midfield, and maybe they would have counterattacked their own team.
Isn't that little man on the 14th for that?
Ferguson had a deep hatred in his heart, not only did he lose his quick wide attack, but he could also lose his defence.
Thinking about it, Ferguson felt angry.
But there is no way, the current situation can only be a regular formation and an attack at a glance.
Like Arsenal, push in layers, chew slowly to swallow each other.
The formation of 4411, Ferguson's heart is completely bottomless, because there is really not much time left for himself.
"Six-minute, six-minute stoppage time!"
"Manchester United still have a chance, Manchester United still have a chance."
"The injuries to Eboue and Cristiano, plus the substitution delay, six minutes, is reasonable."
…
The bright red signage announced that the game had entered stoppage time, and it was also the final stage.
"Shhh
"Damn, how can it be so long!"
"Are you blind, has the game been delayed for so long!"
…
Boos and curses, football commentators are absolutely reasonable, but Arsenal fans don't do it.
The Champions League final is just around the corner, and now one second less is a second, and one minute less is a minute.
They want the game to be over now, that's the best.
Now, they still have to suffer these six minutes, can they not have anger in their hearts?
Arsene Wenger was equally upset and went to the fourth official to protest.
However, it was also blocked back by UEFA officials, and Wenger did not give face.
In fact, it is useless for Wenger to protest, after all, the time has come out.
Arsene Wenger himself knows it, but he is too nervous, and the second chance to reach the Champions League final is just around the corner, and he can't help but be nervous and excited.
He also saw Ferguson's change of formation, and he also knew that this was Ferguson's last response, which was not bad, but he also knew that his formation needed time, and he needed time to 'carve' the game.
Six minutes is not a long time, but it is not a short time, and God knows what kind of energy they can burst out.
Arsene Wenger's hands were already together, unconsciously turning around on the sidelines, but his eyes were always off the field.
"Whew!" Syllable! "Bang!" …
In the final competition, both players knew what the cue card meant.
Last chance, last persistence, last victory!
No one thought of backing down, and no one felt tired.
Ronaldo, Fletcher, Scholes, and even Berbatov all intercepted Xiang Hao at the first time.
Yes, it's Xiang Hao.
At the last moment, Xiang Hao became the only core of Arsenal, and his physical fitness, as well as his ability to fight, made him the first choice of Arsenal's midfielders.
Cesc Fabregas has little fitness anymore, or rather, against the big men at Manchester United, he can't guarantee that the ball won't be lost.
And at this time, Arsenal didn't need him to complete the ball, the tactical purpose, at this time, there was another change, Arsenal only needed to spend the last few minutes safely.
So Cesc Fabregas can hand over the burden and become a player in the role, the main force in the midfield, Xiang Hao, and Nasri, who has just been replaced.
Xiang Hao and Nasri also understand all this, so in the midfield, they are more active in scrambling and more active in taking the ball.
Nasri is full of energy, and every time Xiang Hao gets the ball, he will go to the left side obliquely.
In this way, not only can he seek cooperation with Nasri, but at the same time, he can also consume Ronaldo's last bit of physical energy.
O'Shea was almost unbearable, and he and Ronaldo were the most active along the way, and the Irishman was all over the field.
After confronting Gibbs, he fought with Eboue, and in this game with Eboue, it was Alexander Song again.
The three Arsenal players came in turn, and O'Shea couldn't bear it even if he tried hard.
In the end, his support for Ronaldo here, in fact, is only to provide a figure, and he can't pull people away, he can only take care of his own defense.
Silent countenance, resolute expression, shimmering eyes.
At this moment, Ronaldo is indescribably stubborn, persistent, and arrogant.
If there is a tragedy, it is the appearance of fighting to the death.
Sprinting at the expense of physical strength, pressing at the expense of physical fitness, the only thing that can support him is will.
The cries of thousands of 'Cristiano' can still be heard, but they are getting shorter and shorter.
Ronaldo still has a chance to get the ball, but the high restlessness like before is rarely heard.
Originally, when he faced Xiang Hao, he didn't have any advantage, and he exploded Arsenal's three left-backs in a row, and in the end, he was already dealing with it with all his might.
At the last moment, Wenger also replaced Nasri on his side, and pulled Xiang Hao out and approached his side.
Even if Ronaldo is an iron man, he is powerless.
This is one of the reasons why Ferguson gave up on the wing, Cristiano Ronaldo, a high-speed sports car, has reached its limit.
All that is left in his body is will, the strongest will, and the weakest is also will.
Therefore, he is Xiang Hao, whose will is not inferior to him.
"Whew!"
"gogogogogogo-hao!"
"King-Hao!"
…
The audience cheered, and the screams of 60,000 people rang out, screaming with the galloping figure.
With the ball in the midfield, Xiang Hao passed to Nasri on the side for the first time, and at the same time, decisively stepped forward.
Nasri understood it and returned the ball as soon as possible and sent it back to the middle.
On the tired field, the essence of the movements of the two people is still so light and so sharp.
It was destined that at the last moment, the two of them surpassed everyone on the field.
Ronaldo also chased Xiang Hao for the first time, but in the end, the physical confrontation was exposed. Xiang Hao made a big fight and directly carried Ronaldo, and it was the first time that Ronaldo was so completely destroyed in this game.
With a smooth foot, knowing that Fletcher didn't dare to make a big move, he swiped it, rushed forward, and rushed to the Scotsman and went straight to the hinterland of Manchester United!
