After three days, the same stadium once again welcomed Tottenham Hotspur, and Ferguson was worried, for the simple reason that Ye Qiu did not give his best in the game against Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford last weekend.

Ye Qiu's explanation to the outside world is that the players are not in good shape, and no one knows what is going on with Lu Dao.

The first leg of the Champions League semi-finals is not an ordinary game, but a crucial battle for who can reach the Champions League final, and no one dares to be careless, and Ferguson has given his all in the league because he has to do it, otherwise Manchester United will not have a chance to win the Premier League again.

Manchester United did their best, Tottenham Hotspur kept their hands, and the score of L seemed quite reasonable.

If Ferguson still couldn't grasp the specific thoughts in Ye Qiu's heart before the 34th round of the league, then after the 34th round of the league started, after seeing the starting lineup of Tottenham Hotspur, he had already guessed very clearly, that is, to break the kettle and do his best to compete for the double.

Judging from the current situation, Tottenham Hotspur has a points advantage in the league, they are four points ahead, and after losing the 34th round of the league, they are still one point ahead, which means that Tottenham Hotspur still firmly grasps the initiative to win the league title, provided that Ye Qiu's team must maintain a full win in the remaining four rounds of the league.

Judging from the schedule, Manchester United is the same as Tottenham Hotspur, and Ferguson also emphasizes rotation in the second half, and like Ye Qiu, Ferguson's rotation is not large, because they all know very well that ensuring the team's combat effectiveness is the key.

Therefore, Ye Qiu used three points in exchange for Manchester United to do his best to create an advantage for the first leg of his Champions League semi-finals, which is undoubtedly a very courageous adventure, and it is also in line with Ye Qiu's goal, because he wants a double crown.

After the 34th round of the league, Ferguson ranked the fitness of the players first, because he knew very well that the first game at Old Trafford was a game that had been abandoned by Ye Qiu, and Ye Qiu's only hope for it was to drag down Manchester United's fitness.

And if according to Ferguson's conjecture, in the second battle at Old Trafford, Ye Qiu must do his best.

But Ferguson didn't know how to play this game, although he arranged for scouts to go south to London to spy on Tottenham Hotspur's military situation, and got the news that Van Persie was out due to injury, which made him somewhat relieved.

According to Ferguson's pre-match conjecture, Van Persie is absent, Ye Qiu should be in Cavani, the right side is the thunderous Messi, and the left side may be Gareth Bale, because although Ribery has rebounded quickly after his comeback, and has scored a lot of goals, he still has to lose to Gareth Bale in terms of form.

The Welsh youngster's biggest discovery in the Premier League this season has been his impact on the left side of Tottenham Hotspur, and he has also shown his potential to excel, with the only obvious drawback being that his style of play is a bit inconsistent with Tottenham's overall style, as his basic skills in technical skills are not detailed enough to match some of his team-mates.

But Ferguson always felt that something was wrong, because three days ago, Ye Qiu played Yaya Toure, David Silva and Alves, won't they be able to play this battle? If they don't, how will Tottenham's tactics play?

In fact, it is not difficult to guess from another angle, if Tottenham Hotspur did not show a certain strength in the game three days ago, how could Manchester United be consumed by Tottenham Hotspur?

Just when Ferguson was thinking, he saw the coaching staff of Tottenham Hotspur walking out of the player tunnel one after another, and Ye Qiu followed him out, and when he saw Ferguson, he smiled and waved his hand, which was regarded as a greeting.

"It's not easy to lose and still be in such a good mood" Ferguson walked over not far from the entrance of the passage.

Ye Qiu shook his head and smiled: "We Chinese have a saying, called making fun in suffering, no way, in your territory, I don't have a problem with you"

Ferguson looked like he wanted to find something from Ye Qiu's eyes and expression, but he obviously couldn't find anything, as if Ye Qiu couldn't see the apprehension and worry in his heart from his face now, they were all very good at disguise, especially in front of competitors.

"You're so confident that you can get the edge in this game?" Ferguson was thinking that Ye Qiu's goal was to score away goals, and the best thing was to beat Manchester United.

"I don't know what to say, but I think I should give it a try" Ye Qiu still replied with a smile, but this answer was obviously difficult to satisfy, so after hearing this, Ferguson snorted coldly.

After saying "We'll see", the old man turned around and walked back to the home team's coach's seat.

Ye Qiu's secrecy was obviously done before the game started, and it was not until the players on both sides walked out of the tunnel that Ferguson discovered Tottenham Hotspur's starting lineup, and he guessed half of it, but guessed the other half wrong.

David Beckham

He never thought that Ye Qiu would arrange Beckham, David Silva and Fabregas to play at the same time, is he really so confident? Or did he have something else to do with this match?

Gareth Bale didn't play, the Welshman didn't play in the last league game, this game was originally expected by Ferguson, but he didn't expect it to be on it, but Ribery went up, and the Frenchman formed a trident with Cavani and Messi.

At the back, Marcelo started two games in a row, Zigrinski and Thiago Silva started together, but it was not Alves on the right, but Arbeloa, is this against Cristiano Ronaldo on the left side of Manchester United?

Ferguson did not make much changes and adjustments in this game compared to the last league game, because he knows very well the current strength of the team, playing Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United must give it their all, otherwise, there is not much chance of winning at home.

The goalkeeper is Edwin van der Sar, the back line is Evra, Nemanja Vidic, Rio Ferdinand and O'Shea, the midfield trio is Anderson, Carrick and Paul Scholes, and the front three are Cristiano Ronaldo, Tevez and Park Ji-sung.

After seeing Tottenham Hotspur's starting line-up, Ferguson was always a little uneasy, and when the two sides returned to half-time to kick off, he called O'Shea and told him to be careful with Ribery.

O'Shea is tall, and Ferguson uses him mainly to block Gareth Bale, because he thinks that the Welsh didn't play in the last league game, and this one will definitely play, but he didn't expect Ye Qiu to be on Ribery.

The Frenchman is short and versatile, and O'Shea will obviously struggle more with such a player than Gareth Bale, especially considering that United would suffer if they were to be pressed.

Manchester United's opening tactics were actually the same, Ferguson had to attack at the beginning of the home game, but it was still the trademark Ferguson tactic, and after six minutes of attack, the team began to retreat because he couldn't hold on

If he was sure enough, Ferguson could still hold out for ten minutes, but he always felt uneasy.

Because as the game unfolded, he once again discovered a difference between Tottenham Hotspur, that is, Cavani went to the right side, while Messi was placed in the middle by Ye Qiu from the right side, what does this mean

Evra meets Cavani, there is no advantage in height and strength, and Cavani's running ability and pressing make him able to suppress Evra very well, and Messi meets Ferdinand and Vidic in the middle, two big men, plus Ribery against O'Shea, it is simply that

"Fuck" Ferguson had a feeling of being fooled

Ferguson, who realized the danger, immediately walked to the sidelines and signaled to the players to be careful of Messi, and the Argentine youngster has been cruising between Vidic and Ferdinand, which always makes Ferguson feel a thorn in his heart and uncomfortable.

"He realized" Mauro Tasotti said to Ye Qiu with a smile when he saw Ferguson coming to the sideline to direct with a little impatience.

Sometimes he also admires Ye Qiu's courage, giving up a strong conversation with Manchester United and giving up a three-point lead, which is tantamount to putting all the chips on the players, either a double championship or nothing.

With the current situation of Tottenham Hotspur, the league is one point ahead, but as long as Ye Qiu's tactics do not work, the team is eliminated from the Champions League, which will inevitably affect the situation of the league, and this will undoubtedly be a fiasco for Tottenham Hotspur.

Of course, the voting of Tottenham Hotspur fans also gave Ye Qiu enough courage, and in the interaction between him and the fans, he got the full support of the fans, so he dared to bet on this.

"What if you see it? He didn't have a choice" Ye Qiu snorted, walked over, waved his hand at Messi, and signaled him to withdraw from the front, and this was also the signal that Ye Qiu gave when arranging tactics before the game.

"Messi's biggest tactical value as a player is not that he cuts inside on the right side, there are many right wingers who can score, but it is extremely scarce to be able to be like him, almost never lose the ball after getting it," Ye Qiu said to Mauro Tasotti.

In fact, Messi was placed in the middle, Ye Qiu also tried many times in training, this was from a suggestion from Peter Devisel, he watched Messi play, and then felt that with Messi's technical skills, he might be able to play a greater threat in the middle, because after he got the ball, unless he encountered a foul by a defender, he would basically not lose it.

Moreover, when Messi takes the ball, he can not only find teammates to cooperate, but also be able to break through with the ball himself, and he can also turn around and insert himself into the penalty area after passing the ball to find scoring opportunities, such players are rare in the world.

Messi's retreat from the front of the line to the area between Carrick and the back line is a signal to everyone at Tottenham that our attack is about to begin

The midfielder made a series of passes, Messi retreated to receive the ball, held the ball with his back to the goal, and tried to turn around, but Vidic quickly blocked behind Messi, but the Argentine almost stuck the ball at his feet, neither Vidic nor Carrick had a chance to get his feet, and Messi quickly passed the ball to Cesc Fabregas.

Fabregas got the ball and passed the ball with a straight kick, and saw Cavani quickly cut into the penalty area from the right side, although he is a right-footed player, but his left-footed ability is not bad, plus the advantage of height and strength, on the one hand, he pressed Evra with his body, and on the other hand, he stopped the ball with his left foot and pulled it back.

Ferdinand thought that Cavani was going to kick directly in the penalty area, and immediately flew directly in fright, but Cavani crossed from behind him to Ribery on the left, but the hurried pass was not very good, and the ball was picked up by Van der Sar.

Ribery was sprinting, but when he saw Van der Sar get the ball, he immediately slowed down and shook his head with a wry smile at Cavani, as if to say, you pass a little more, it's too close to the goal.

If this attack was just a test of the waters, then a minute later, Tottenham Hotspur once again attacked the ball into the heart of Manchester United, and after Messi retreated to get the ball, he used his body to get rid of Vidic, and then crossed to Ribery, and the Frenchman cut to the left and shot directly at the edge of the penalty area, but it was slightly off.

With two successive attacks creating a threat, Ferguson's face became more and more solemn as he found himself fooled.

Ye Qiu now made it clear that he wanted to use Messi and Ribery, two stars with excellent individual ability and skill, to cooperate on the left and in the middle to attack Manchester United's three tower defense composed of O'Shea, Ferdinand and Vidic, because these three players have a very obvious shortcoming, turn

Now Messi is specifically holding the ball between the defense and the midfield, using his ability to take the ball to create chances, and in this area, the defenders are easily afraid to make a move, because they have to worry about being passed by anytime and anywhere, and they also have to worry about fouls.

Ye Qiu uses Beckham, I believe there are multiple meanings, one of which he is very sure of is that Manchester United's midfield cannot threaten Beckham, because Tottenham Hotspur will press Manchester United in this game.

On the contrary, if it was Gareth Bell on Ye Qiu, then the situation would be much better than it is now.

Just when Ferguson was anxiously thinking about countermeasures, the time on the field did not stop or slow down at all, Messi suddenly pulled to the left side of the arc, received a low flat ball from Ziglinski's backfield, stopped the ball and got rid of Ferdinand, and burst into the penalty area with the ball.

O'Shea quickly ran over from the left, seeing that Messi was about to get a chance, O'Shea fell directly to the ground and shoveled, shoveled the ball, but also tackled Messi, but the referee did not signal a foul, nor did he blow Messi for faking a fall, and the players on both sides were obviously dissatisfied with this move.

Tall players against short players, especially in the tight confines of the contraction defence, is not a heavyweight class, and the smaller players have almost all the advantages, especially in the area at the edge of the box, where they have to worry about not committing fouls.

O'Shea's tackle just now made all Manchester United fans, even Ferguson on the sidelines, break out in a cold sweat, because they all knew very well that if it was a penalty, then Manchester United would hardly have to play this game.

Tottenham Hotspur did not receive a penalty, but the protest lasted only a short time, and they quickly returned to the game, and actively picked up the tempo, organising and planning one attack after another.

Now Tottenham Hotspur has a physical advantage, Manchester United just played a hard battle with Tottenham Hotspur three days ago, and it was a continuous battle before, and the physical fitness has reached a critical point, so Tottenham Hotspur is to take advantage of this, directly speed up the pace after the opening, and chase you desperately.

As long as there is a goal, the initiative of this game, and even the initiative of the two-legged game, will all be grasped by Ye Qiu.

Everyone at Manchester United is well aware of the severity of the current situation, and Ferguson has frequently instructed the team to pay attention to defence, but with Tottenham Hotspur's attack, Manchester United's defence has been exposed again and again.

It was another pass from midfield, David Silva's through shot, Ribery passed between O'Shea and Rio Ferdinand, but when he rushed into the box to stop the ball, Vidic reacted faster, blocked him with his body in advance, stuck in a good position, and forced Ribery to intercept and let Van der Sar attack to hold the ball.

It was definitely a big nerve test for the Red Devils fans, who were creating danger almost every minute.

But this is also a test for the players on both sides, whoever can hold up will be able to laugh the most, if Tottenham Hotspur can't score, then it is likely to be scored by Manchester United in the end; Conversely, if Tottenham Hotspur scores, it will end up in utter despair for the group of Manchester United players who have just beaten Tottenham Hotspur for the third time this season.

As Messi retreated, frequently created threats with the ball in the middle, and planned offensives, Manchester United also began to focus on strengthening the defense in the middle, especially for Messi's point of defense, but this is somewhat of a tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall.

With David Silva and Cesc Fabregas behind him, and ahead of Zygrinski and Thiago Silva, Beckham's task is not easy, especially at his current age.

Before the game, Ye Qiu asked him if he could play Manchester United in this Champions League game, and he replied almost without hesitation.

Everyone knows that he doesn't want to play Manchester United, but he is a professional player and receives a salary from Tottenham Hotspur, so at any time, as long as Tottenham Hotspur needs it, he will not refuse, even if it is against Manchester United

When Manchester United's defense focuses on Messi, the defensive pressure in the midfield is much lighter, and Cristiano Ronaldo's side is not very strict, so the pressure on Beckham is not very great, which allows him to better observe the situation on the field at the back.

Ye Qiu said that as long as Messi, Ribery and David Silva, Cesc Fabregas and others pull up the defensive strength, then Cavani on the right side has a chance, so Beckham is very attentive to Cavani's movements.

In the 26th minute of the game, Arbeloa defended Cristiano Ronaldo on the right side, and the Spaniard's defensive skills were still quite level, this time cutting the ball off accurately and handing it to Beckham, who ran over to pick it up, and the latter saw Evra cut forward in the midfield, while Cavani was in front and unguarded.

Beckham barely hesitated, picked up his right foot and directly passed the ball diagonally over the top, looking for Cavani
