It's a deep breath.

When he found out that the Manchester City players who walked out of the tunnel were still the same as the original team in the first half, Ferguson was a little surprised and couldn't help muttering in his heart.

Unlike Linson, Manchester United, who has two goals in hand, can let Ferguson give a half-time lecture with a happy mood, praise the players for their performance in the first half, and remind the players not to get carried away in the second half, and so on, Ferguson has carried out countless times, for the dressing room, he has always been handy, and the entire Premier League knows that he is a famous hair dryer, but in fact, even if he sneezes, those players who have been under him for more than ten years know what their boss wants to say, What's more, it's still time to be ahead.

Linson returned to the pitch early in the morning, earlier than Alex Ferguson, earlier than everyone else, and sat in the dugout without saying a word.

It's really an extremely imaginary scenario.

Andy Gray guessed that Linson must have scolded all the Manchester City players, because if it was him, then he would definitely do it, not only to scold them, but also to kick their ass, the Manchester City table in the first half was really terrible, completely different from their previous games.

At this point, Atkinson's whistle blew and the second half began.

Manchester United is still the rhythm of the first half, that is also the rhythm they are most familiar with, never delay time in the midfield possession, get the ball is to quickly get through the midfield to hit Manchester City's back, if you can't, quickly hand over to the two wings to organize the attack, speaking of the offensive routine is extremely simple, is a cross from the side, outflanking in the middle, just like their second goal.

Manchester City, who were led by Manchester United for almost the entire first half, used a foul as a counterattack in the second half.

Fletcher passed the ball to Giggs's feet, and in the face of Robben's back, Giggs, who had long been inferior in speed, did not intend to entangle with the opponent. Directly passed the ball to Anderson in the middle, Anderson pulled to the right side after receiving the ball, and Park Ji-sung on the right side pulled it to the middle in reverse, which not only made up for Anderson's position, but also created a passing route for Anderson......

But this time, it didn't work.

De Jong laid his body across Anderson's dribbling lane, giving him no chance to continue pulling into the wing, and then Anderson crashed into it like a wall.

Successfully defending or blocking fouls?

The referee awarded a blocking foul. De Jong was given a warning and then awarded a free-kick from 40 yards from goal.

De Jong, who spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders to the referee, but he was no longer stunned, and did not entangle with the referee, but whispered something to Anderson, and then ran away regardless of whether Anderson heard the reaction or not.

In the first collision of the second half, United won a free-kick in front. It seems to be earned. But Lin Sen in the dugout doesn't think so, consistency is the strongest part of Manchester United's midfield at the moment, as long as Manchester United's midfield can maintain consistency. Their offense can be organised, and their defense can be logical, but if that coherence is broken, then. Advantages will become weaknesses, and their midfield will have to fight on their own. With the likes of Arjen Robben, Robinho and Silva, Manchester City will never lose to each other.

What's more, Lin Sen clearly saw that the color on the top of De Jong's head was shiny green, and Anderson actually flashed a hint of indigo at the moment De Jong ran away, which was the color of anger, did De Jong say something?

From a free-kick, United failed to take advantage of it, Kompany headed the ball over Rooney's head and it was De Jong who received the ball. As soon as De Jong received the ball, one of them fouled him, and it was a vicious sliding tackle.

From Anderson.

The whistle continued to blow, again without cards, the same free-kick.

Anderson, who got up, had words in his mouth, but to his surprise, De Jong, who almost took a tackle from him, did not complain to the referee, but stood up and sent a free kick directly.

The ball crossed most of the midfield and came directly to the feet of Robben in the front, and at this time, due to the previous free kick, there were only two people left in the Manchester United backfield, one was Ferdinand, and the other was Evra, who fought with Robben for most of the game.

When the ball came to Robben's feet, the entire city stadium suddenly erupted into a commotion, and everyone could see that this was an opportunity!

What an opportunity! Therefore, both Lin Sen and Ferguson stood up at this time.

This opportunity is not just about Robben's threat, but also in the fact that Robinho on the left and Suarez in the middle are almost simultaneously activated at the same time as Robben starts, and David Silva has quickly followed up in the position of Robben later in the field. It's not a one-on-two, it's a potential four-on-two!

Arjen Robben kept moving forward like an arrow off the string, and behind him, David Silva was closest to him, but behind his ass, followed by Fletcher, and at the far end, Robinho and Suarez were very tacit and pushed forward at the same time, and behind the two, the players who were also chasing back with Manchester United, O'Shea and Park Ji-sung.

At this time, Evra felt for the first time that he wanted Robben to face him so strongly, because as long as Robben did not pass the ball, then even if it was a foul, he would stop the Dutchman.

However, it backfired.

Robben is alone, but not stupid, Ferdinand is still at the back, Evra is not the last defender, which means that even if he passes Evra, as long as the opponent is not too bad a foul, Evra can pay the price of a yellow card at most, and this attack can end without a problem. In this case, how could Robben let the other party get his wish.

Just as Robben was about to touch Patrice Evra, he passed the ball to David Silva with a back-heel, and himself, turned into a wind and gently swept past Evra. David Silva, who received the ball, knew that he was followed by a Manchester United player, and if he chose to control the ball first, it would not only slow down the fast attack, but he might even be entangled by Fletcher in the back, so he chose a more simple but actually extremely school-based footwork treatment, and the ball that kept going to Robben was a direct pass, and the ball went exactly in front of Robben......

A simple two-over-one. With the cooperation of two superstars, it can be called a smooth flow.

Four to two, became three to one.

Rio Ferdinand is a world-class centre-back, but he can't beat four hands with both fists, let alone six feet. When Arjen Robben faced Rio Ferdinand and flicked the ball across to the other side, the stands at the City Stadium seemed to be suffocating. Then, when Robinho at the back post blocked the ball with the arch of his foot, there were already countless pairs of arms pointing to the sky in the stands......

1：2！

Watching Robinho on the pitch make his trademark finger-sucking celebration, Ferguson's mouth stopped chewing.

The game time is sixty-first minute. There is still half an hour.

Anderson on the field crossed his hands on his hips, his expression was a little confused, he never thought that a foul in the front court of his own would actually turn into a lost ball, even if it was indeed a foul with love, he looked at De Jong, but found that the other party had rushed up to participate in the goal celebration, and couldn't help but curse in his heart.

The camera showed Lin Sen, who had an amazing move in the first half. was disappointed to find that Lin Sen only waved his arm when he scored, and then sat back in the coach's box.

Linsson was happy with the goal, of course, but let's not forget that City are still behind. Happiness needs to be done in moderation.

As he sat back in the dugout, Linson's gaze glanced at Bale, who was sitting in the back, like the rest of the substitutes, when Robinho scored. Bell also stood up and cheered, but Lin Sen clearly saw the color change on the top of his head, and it was not just excitement......

We'll have to wait.

Lin Sen thought to himself. Both to himself and to Bell.

The game resumed and after conceding the goal, Ferguson did not make any adjustments, he remained in the dugout, because as Linsen thought, Manchester United were still ahead. Whether or not Ferguson makes adjustments, he has plenty of reasons. At this point, he thought the goal was an accident and City had simply taken advantage of a slack in the aftermath of United's free-kick attack. But he soon realized that he was wrong.

United's laxity may have been an accident, but De Jong's foul was not.

In the first half, City's midfield became extraordinarily tough, not to mention that Frenkie de Jong received his first yellow card three minutes after that foul, his partner Vidal was quickly cautioned, and even David Silva was signaled by Atkinson not to make an example...... However, the number of fouls is not the same as the number of ball breaks, and a foul can be said to be just a less successful defense, so what about success?

City's midfield paid a price, and United's midfield naturally had to pay a price, with the result that their pass success rate in the second half was less than half that of the first.

Ferguson, who was aware of the problem, was finally no longer silent, and he quickly replaced the somewhat hot-headed Anderson with Carrick in an attempt to re-establish control in midfield. But at this time, Lin Sen's mind was not in the midfield, and from the second half, he was paying attention to one person in the Manchester United team, this person was Manchester United's right-back O'Shea.

Before this game, Linson always thought that Ferguson would let their captain Gary Neville start, because the use of Gary Neville in important games has always been Ferguson's strategy, but the old gentleman finally chose the "panacea" O'Shea, in this regard, Linson is not easy to say whether Ferguson thinks that the game with Manchester City is not an important game, but obviously compared to Gary Neville, O'Shea may not be so experienced, but his physical condition is better.

This left Linson having to postpone a time, a time for Bale to play.

And now, the time has come.

Because he finally waited until O'Shea's physical strength lit up a red light in his eyes.

So, a minute after Ferguson brought on Carrick, he walked to the bench and motioned for Bale to warm up.

Two minutes later, Bale, wearing the number 11 jersey, stood on the sidelines, and Linsen, who was standing on the sidelines with him with one hand on his shoulder, did not say much and only said one word.

Do what you do best. (To be continued......)

PS: If I could, I would really like to write a game and post it together......
