Red Rebels

609 The true inheritor

"The referee blew the goal whistle and the ball went in!"

Almost at the same time, Messi jumped up from the penalty area and ran towards Ronaldinho not far away. Beside him, there was Kaka, who had just opened Messi's defensive attention. The three leading players of the Red Rebels suddenly ran to the sidelines.

"It's so beautiful. In the 32nd minute, the Red Rebels took advantage of a beautiful cooperation on the left. Ronaldinho opened up Manchester United's gap on the left and passed a fatal low ball to help teammate Messi. Opening the scoring, the Red Rebels temporarily lead 1:0!"

"This goal came very suddenly. It can be said that Manchester United's defense did not make any big mistakes in the first 30 minutes. It also did a good job against the Red Rebel players. However, it was just a carelessness and Park Ji-sung failed. Returning to Gary Neville in time to help defend, the Red Rebels took advantage of this mistake and scored a crucial goal."

"Look at the scene when Ferguson was so angry on the sidelines that he pointed at Park Ji-sung on the court and cursed. Everyone can see what it means to be one goal behind the Red Rebels at the Red Rebel Stadium. In this case, It is undoubtedly very difficult to get back the score.”

"Mourinho jumped high in excitement to celebrate. One of his adjustments in the 30th minute immediately brought a goal to the Red Rebels. He...oh, wait, what's going on?" the on-site commentator Just in the middle of speaking, he discovered that the Red Rebels players made a strange move on the sidelines.

I saw Messi, the hero of the goal, unzipping his jersey, revealing a white shirt with the words "To the brave Emile Angelov!" ], and the live TV camera quickly found Angrove, who was already in tears in the stands, and the latter's parents were also moved.

The players stood side by side on the sidelines, raising their hands high and waving to the stands where the Angelov family was.

"It turns out that Messi wanted to give this goal to a Bulgarian fan who was severely injured by his classmates because of the Red Rebels. He is a die-hard supporter of the Red Rebels and today he also received an invitation from the club to come. Go to the game and watch it.”

"This is indeed a very heart-warming move. The live TV camera was full of irony and was aimed at Platini. I wonder if this politician who criticized the Red Rebels for becoming commercial slaves saw this scene. , what does he feel in his heart?"

There were overwhelming cheers at the scene, and the Red Rebels fans sang a loud team song. The Red Rebels team song resounded throughout the audience. The Red Devils fans who were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers were not originally from the Red Rebels. Opponents, now that the Red Rebels have taken the lead again, they are even more suppressed by the Red Rebels fans in terms of momentum.

"You brat, when did you write this?" As he walked back, Kaka held Messi's shoulders tightly.

Messi chuckled, looking extremely innocent under the lights of the stadium, "Just in the afternoon, I heard Jim say that Angel Grove would come to watch the game, and I thought, no matter who scores the goal, I ran to celebrate and show him this."

"It seems that you are determined to steal my limelight!" Xiao Luo was a little angry at the side, "If I had known, I wouldn't have passed the ball to you just now, I will hit it myself!" After finishing speaking, , he himself smiled.

A group of people walked back talking and laughing. The team was ahead. The courage on the players' shoulders was also a lot lighter, and their mood was naturally not as depressed as it was at the beginning.

But in front of Manchester United's coaching bench, Ferguson was not in a good mood at all.

That goal just now seemed accidental.

But in fact, it showed the efficiency of the Red Rebels. Just one mistake resulted in a goal conceded. Ferguson was very helpless about this because no matter who it was, it was impossible for the whole game to last 90 minutes without making mistakes.

The only thing he could say was that the Red Rebels were indeed too powerful.

And judging from the goal just now, the tacit understanding of the Manchester United players in the 4222 tactics is still not enough. Just now Park Ji-sung was "forcing" Beckham, but after Beckham passed the ball to Drogba, he did not Reacting in time, Evra suddenly stepped forward and passed the ball overhead after receiving the ball, causing Ronaldinho to pass through Gary Neville's defense.

There is such a risk in rushing for the whole game. Once a certain link is not done well, it may lead to the entire line being passive.

"How about letting them pull back a little bit?" Queiroz came to Ferguson's side.

The Portuguese has not gone to Real Madrid for a leisurely trip like Xiao Yu did in his previous life. This makes him still Ferguson's most trusted right-hand man, and even the chief assistant coach of Manchester United who is responsible for the team's training affairs.

"Retracting? No, that will only fuel the Red Rebels' arrogance. Don't retreat, stay in position, let Park Ji-sung and Alan Smith participate more in defense, and attack directly by Rooney and Robinho."

Queiroz took the order and immediately conveyed Ferguson's instructions to the court.

I have to admit that two players, Park Ji-sung and Alan Smith, are indeed very good at running. Coupled with Rooney who was running all over the field, Manchester United caused a lot of trouble for the Red Rebels in the midfield. In addition, the formation was compact. The three lines are very closely integrated, ensuring the safety of the side road to the greatest extent.

On the other hand, after scoring the goal, the Red Rebels began to actively look for opportunities on the wing and suppressed Manchester United, but they were never able to open up the situation again, especially in the face of Manchester United's almost crazy midfield configuration.

Senna, Sulli Muntari, Park Ji-sung, Alan Smith, plus the retreating Rooney, the tactic that Ferguson found to restrain the Red Rebels was to use the spirit of a mad dog who can't run away and blindly catch the Red Rebels in the midfield. The army refused to let go and maintained the 1:0 score until the end of halftime.

"The referee blew the whistle to end the first half. Judging from the scene, the Red Rebels were in an advantage and Manchester United was a little passive. However, facing Manchester United's almost unreasonable midfield fight, the Red Rebels seemed helpless. Especially after scoring a goal, Manchester United's three lines remained relatively compact and no longer pressed as hard as they did at the start."

"The Red Rebels' offensive was more concentrated on the left. Ronaldinho and Evra played very actively on the left and created several opportunities. On the contrary, Messi on the right was behind Heinze. In front of us, there are not many opportunities for the young Argentine genius, but this may have something to do with the fact that Maicon did not give him a lot of support."

"Anyway, Manchester United did a good job in defending the Red Rebels in the first half. The Red Rebels only got one decent chance in the first half, but the star's personal ability determines the direction of the game. Xiao Flashes of genius from Ronaldinho and Messi helped the Red Rebels take the lead, but other than that, they didn't have many chances."

Martin Samuel kept nodding, "Yes, although the pace of both sides is very fast and the scene is very intense and not boring, this is the Champions League final after all. No one will take risks easily. Ferguson changed the formation." 4222 is already the greatest risk, but it is also based on defense and freezing the Red Rebel offense."

"Does that mean that the trend of the game in the second half will continue in the direction of the first half?"

Martin Samuel shook his head, "I don't think so. Neither Ferguson nor Mourinho would be willing to maintain the 1:0 score. After all, it is very dangerous. The former must want to get the score back, even It’s a go-ahead, but the latter will definitely try to expand the score, so I believe there should be some changes in the second half.”

In the visiting team's locker room, Ferguson glanced at the group of players in front of him who were still very young, but who had high hopes for him.

It should be said that this is a group of stars who are not inferior to the Class of 1992 in terms of strength or potential, especially this group of young stars headed by Rooney, Robinho and Diego. I think it will surpass Class 92.

In addition, in the defensive midfielder position, the arrival of Senna has indeed brought a balance to Manchester United's lineup. Suli Muntari has also been a star that he has long been optimistic about. Although the Ghanaian midfielder has rich experience, he lacks competition experience and needs to be refined. I believe that Muntari's potential will not be lost to Essien at all. He will be Roy Keane of Manchester United in the future.

At present, Ferguson's transformation of the midfield and frontcourt has been basically completed. He believes that Manchester United's current lineup, as long as it is properly integrated, can compete for the Premier League championship and even the Champions League.

However, it should be said that Ferguson's calculations were very shrewd. His team's offense was excellent, but there were deficiencies in defense, but they were covered up by his overall tactics very well, making it difficult for the opponent to detect, but unlucky Unfortunately, this year they encountered a red rebel army that was in terrible shape.

Manchester United is in a period of turmoil. The Glazer family clearly told Ferguson before this final that they hope Manchester United can win this final at all costs, because everyone knows that the new Champions League winner , can have a greater say in the sale price, and Ferguson himself is eager to win the second Champions League.

It should be said that Ferguson was satisfied with the performance in the first half, but a mistake in the defense caused Manchester United to fall behind in the score. The tactics of the first half would no longer be used in the second half.

"In the second half, we have to be more proactive and look for opportunities from the left. Maicon is obviously not in good shape in this game. Robinho and Rooney should look for opportunities from the left!"

The away locker room was suffocatingly quiet, with only Ferguson's voice ringing in the empty locker room.

"This is a final, and the club's board of directors has offered a huge winning bonus for this. Whether it is for money, for the team, or for yourself, we have no reason not to fight in the second half. We must go all out and fight with the Red Rebels." Even though they seem to be really strong, we are Manchester United!"

Ferguson blushed, pointed at his chest, and was so excited that saliva flew from his face.

"We are Manchester United who never give up. They often say that they represent the will of the Green and Gold Army. Fuck you, we are the true inheritors of the Red Devils and we are the representatives of Manchester!"

Ferguson has always dreamed of winning another Champions League. Now he is only a little bit away from the second Champions League. As long as he works harder, he will be within reach!

"Maybe you want to say, boss, we were behind 1:0 in the first half, but let me tell you, being behind in the first half was a relief for us, because we could risk everything. On the other hand, the Red Rebels were ahead. , but they are more afraid of losing, this is their home court, this is the palace where they have never been defeated, and they have greater psychological pressure than us."

Ferguson was pacing back and forth in the locker room, but his expression was extremely excited.

"It's just one goal. It's nothing to us. I believe that as long as you work hard, no team in the world can stop us. Even the Red Rebels will kneel down after 45 minutes." Fall at our feet.”

Having said this, Ferguson paused and took a breath before continuing.

"Many people are laughing at us, thinking that we have never defeated the Red Rebels in this stadium, and we are used to losing even against the Red Rebels, but I want to say, guys, men, warriors , Warriors, are you willing to be labeled as a softie for the rest of your life? Are you willing to be laughed at forever and say that we can't defeat the Red Rebels in our lives? "

"Answer me, are you willing?" Ferguson raised his voice, which made many coaches secretly worry about him, fearing that he might accidentally burst a blood vessel.

"No, boss!" the players replied in unison.

"Very good, I don't want to either. I have been playing football all my life. I don't want to be accused of being a softie when I am old, so I want you to fight hard. I believe that our Red Devils soldiers must be the best in this world." The strongest one!"

In the second half, the team changed sides and fought again. Every one of Manchester United's players seemed to be victorious and became unstoppable.

"Reversing the defensive tone of the first half, Manchester United turned the away game at the beginning of the second half, taking advantage of kick-off opportunities to look for opportunities in the heart of the Red Rebels."

"Robinho came to the left, and Senna's ball found him accurately. The Brazilian made a beautiful stop. Facing De Rossi, he passed it cleverly back to Rooney. Rooney hit back and made a beautiful one-two. Robinho gets past De Rossi..."

This was the first wave of offensive organized by Manchester United in the second half. It was obvious that Ferguson's tactic was to have Rooney and Robinho pull the ball to the left and use their outstanding personal abilities to specifically attack the Red Rebels. On the right, De Rossi actively helped Maicon defend, and even Kaká and Messi were retreating.

Manchester United's first wave of attacks obviously failed to find a chance. Robinho passed the ball to Rooney, but the Englishman did not get a chance outside the penalty area and could only knock back to the center to Alan Smith, who immediately passed it back to Senna. .

But just when everyone thought Manchester United's offensive was going to be suspended, Senna suddenly passed the ball from mid-range and went directly to the left side of the Red Rebels' penalty area. Rooney headed the ball and passed it to Robinho. , the latter wanted to go past Maicon, but the Brazilian right back made a mistake.

Maicon was half a length behind Robinho because he failed to gain his position in time. He desperately wanted to overtake his opponent, but Robinho had practiced in the Premier League for several years and his body was very strong. He was unmoved. Just when Robinho was about to speed up, he suddenly fell down in the penalty area.

The referee's whistle then sounded!
