162 Battle for Righteousness II
'I don't know how to say it, but you guys were perfect in the first half.
In the second half of the first half, everyone was in the middle of the battle. No one scored again, and Blackburn ended the first half with a 1-0 lead.
George was in the dressing room and had no hesitation in appreciating the Blackburn players. This is probably the first time that George has praised the players so unvarnished this season.
People love to hear compliments, so everyone is very happy to hear George's compliments.
'In the second half, United definitely came back from the back. Don't rush back in the second half, you just keep reversing the ball in the midfield. Robert, in the second half you also helped John and Anderson to keep the ball firmly in midfield. Use your skills and passing to wear down United's counter-attack. ”
Pire, Miku and Deco are all good on the ball, and George wants to use them to grind Manchester United to death.
…………
In the second half, United didn't make any personnel changes, and they didn't attack Blackburn Rovers as soon as George had hoped. Instead, Scholes dropped back, with Keane and Scholes even further back in midfield than in the first half.
George was a little puzzled by such a change, and even the players on Black's pitch were confused by United's retreat.
However, since then, Blackburn's control in midfield has become more and more satisfactory.
In this situation, Blackburn's players are getting bolder. Deco even ran near the opponent's big penalty area.
George looked at the situation and frowned. Manchester United is by no means only strong, they are so strong that they are a strong team even in Europe. Their midfield is currently the best midfield in the Premier League, how can they be beaten by Blackburn Rovers and then retreat. That's not Ferguson's style either.
There must be a ghost, and George stepped forward to keep the Blackburn players steady. Don't be so aggressive.
However, George had just gotten up when Deco's pass was cut off by Berg and then handed to Scholes. Scholes just swiped the ball past Miku. Then it was handed over to Beckham next to him. Beckham didn't stop the ball and just played a long ball that was pinpointed to Giggs on the left. At this time, it became a counterattack by Manchester United against Blackburn.
There were few men at the back of Blackburn, and even Van Bronckhorst ran up front. Giggs is fast, and Giggs' strength lies in his speed and ability to control the ball at full speed.
Sagnol didn't go past half the game and was glued to Giggs all the time. The moment Giggs got the ball, Sagnol didn't step forward. Instead, he slowly retreated, not daring to make a rash move. But Giggs was so fast that he didn't give Sagnol the slightest chance.
Seeing that Sagnol has broken through Sagnol, Hendry behind the defense. However, Giggs, whose speed has risen, has broken through Hendry in a few disguises. In desperation, Hendry grabbed Giggs.
"Toot-" The referee blew the whistle and gave Hendry a yellow card and a free kick.
George breathed a sigh of relief at the yellow card. There was nothing to say about the goal, even if it was given to the red card, because Giggs was directly facing the goalkeeper after bursting through. Hyypia next to him is defending York next to him.
"David Beckham...... He walked to the ball and Beckham was mediocre in this game. Van Bronckhorst was very successful in marking David Beckham. ”
Cudicini was setting up the wall and Beckham's free-kicks were not as famous as they would have been later. But in England, it was already famous, and Cudicini did not dare to be careless.
George was also staring at Beckham, frowning when Beckham's standard free-kick action came out. Because this action is all too familiar.
"David Beckham...... Pretty, pretty. Beautiful Bain's arc! ”
Seeing Beckham score, George couldn't help but kick the mineral water bottle at his feet. George somewhat understands why United took the initiative to recall, first of all, their players had played for the national team three days ago, including the main players and substitutes. And they are all main players of the national team. Therefore, after the national team competition, their physical strength cannot keep up. And after this recovery, Beckham's accurate long passing ability can be fully utilized, as well as Giggs's excellent speed advantage.
The counterattack just now, from the break to the counterattack, there were only a few kicks. Beckham's excellent long passing and Giggs's amazing breakthrough ability are all vividly displayed.
George patted his forehead, Ferguson, you old fox. came from a defensive counterattack, and even asked Manchester United to play a counterattack.
It was only twelve minutes into the second half, and there were more than thirty minutes left in the game.
George walked around and thought about how to respond. Whether to defend or attack, George hesitated. Before they could respond, though, there was another loud cheer at Old Trafford.
Just after kick-off, Manchester United scored again. Not long after kick-off, the ball was cut off by Keane. Handed over to David Beckham on the right, Beckham made a cross and found the Manchester United striker accurately. This time it was Andy Cole who scored the goal, and Cole headed in David Beckham's cross.
George shook his head, and Beckham was silent for nearly fifty minutes. Almost defended by Van Bronckhorst, he didn't have the slightest temper, but only appeared twice in front of the camera to put United ahead of the score.
Blackburn's players were disappointed as they were 1-0 up five minutes earlier. But in such a short period of time, Blake was down 1-2. They were disappointed by the contrast.
Is it true that Blackburn have no chance of winning, and will they really be relegated this season, as the media has said?
Looking at this group of unambitious players, George was furious. You can't lose your ambition if you lose the game, so I walked up and shouted very angrily.
"Do you want to lose again, a bunch of cowards."
"I told you to have faith in yourself. Faith, you fools. ”
In fact, Old Trafford was so noisy that it was impossible for those players to hear George's words. But George's anger on the sidelines was felt by them.
They even saw George patting his chest there, which was a sign that George was telling them to have confidence. George's most important thing before the game is that they must have a strong heart. Seeing George's action, they all understood what George meant.
"Tell them, run. Run, run more. George grabbed Sagnol on the sidelines and told him to tell the players on the pitch. Increase your running and there must be a problem with Manchester United's stamina for the rest of the time.
Blackburn's players are all young, with the exception of Stephen Hendry, the oldest of the players being 25.
At this time, the effect of Blackburn's two-week training came out, Blackburn did not fall behind in the midfield competition, and the three people in the front court, Pire, Duff, and Klose kept changing positions.
Even Miku and Deco in midfield also increased their running, and Pire also returned to the middle, and the three of them kept running to increase the space of passing.
The run of the frontcourt players also made Manchester United's backline very uncomfortable. People are staring at people, and they definitely can't. Their physical strength is obviously inferior to that of the Blackburn players, and they are tired of running around when they are marked and tired. And once you get to man, it's easy for the defensive system to be open.
But it's not easy just to stand and hold your position. Because they have different characteristics, it's not so easy to defend against different types of players. Just as Pire and Duff have completely different characteristics, defending Pire and Duff is a completely different defense.
"Pire...... Burst in, shoot! Unfortunately, Schmeichel pounced. ”
'Miku passed the ball and Klose got it...... Klose collapsed in the middle of the box and the referee signalled that it was not a foul. It wasn't a foul to watch the replay, and Stam tackled the ball first. Klose was slow, and if it had been York, the ball would have gone in. ”
"Pire, pass...... Miku, long shot, it's a pity. ”
"Pire's game was a real change, and it was a change of man to see Pire's past Neville again. I don't think Neville has had a match under such pressure since his debut. If Pire could play like that every time. Don't say 5.5 million pounds, even 10 million pounds is not expensive. ”
All of a sudden, the pressure on United's backline increased, and the ball kept flying around the United half.
"If Blackburn had played so well in the first few games, Blackburn wouldn't have been so bad now."
'But the Blackburn players, it was a very good game. Especially the players who have just transferred, this game is good. Needless to say, Deco is also very comfortable in midfield. Who can believe that Deco was still playing in Portugal's second division last season. ”
The game was lively, but the goal was never scored, which also worried George.
Seventy-two minutes, Pire, who had been playing well in this game, got the ball again. Neville gasped for air, and before this game, Neville had no Pire in his eyes at all. Pire wasn't studied either, but the game was too awkward.
It's not Neville's fault for this, Pire's performance in the Premier League is scum. I didn't expect this game to suddenly become powerful, and I didn't know many of Pire's characteristics. That's why it's so embarrassing.
Neville saw Pire's dribbling and looked at himself, so aim for the timing for a tackle.
"Pire...... He picked Neville, it was so beautiful. "Pire's movements are very chic." He dribbled past Neville and Stam came in to fill in. Pire's cross! ”
Klose saw that Berg was only staring at him, so he jumped up and didn't shoot overhead, but pushed the ball out. The top is given to the feet of Miku, who has already been inserted.
Although Keane did not control the second drop point at the first time, he was already in position and stepped forward to break the ball. Miku struggled with Keane throughout the game and understood that once Keane was targeted, it would be difficult to pass the ball.
So Miku stepped on the ball, used the back heel of his right foot, and gently pushed to the left.
It was just a very gentle movement, but it already shook all the defenders of Manchester United.
Miku crossed his heel to the left...... It's Deco, and Deco is plugged in the back row...... Deco!!! ”
Deco, who rushed up from behind, did not hesitate at all, and faced the passing ball, which was a furious shot.
The ball whistled by, and in the blink of an eye it was already in front of Schmeichel. Schmeichel did his best to make a save, but the ball rolled past Schmeichel's fingers.
