Chapter 223

Ferguson, who is nearly seventy years old, has actually lost a lot of sharp temperament. When people talk about him, it is no longer his feelings about football: Damn football, the pride towards his sworn enemies: pulling Liverpool off the throne, treating his beloved generals and opponents: give me two guns, one aimed at Victoria and the other at Wenger.

People talk more about Ferguson's retirement plan. He has regretted his retirement three times and four times. It's really time for him to really get rid of his armour and return to the field.

Just as people now see more Ferguson watching the game from the coach's seat than the hot image on the sidelines, situ Yunbing doesn't know whether to be glad that he didn't meet Ferguson with full gunfire in his heyday or regret that he didn't personally experience the deep education of a powerful opponent.

In the second half of the Champions League 14 final, Ferguson finally showed a thoughtful and dignified look on the coach's bench, because situ Yunbing's halftime adjustment worked!

If Monaco, which has always been well prepared before the game, finally failed to fully realize that it could meet the stormy attack of Manchester United at Old Trafford today, the mending at halftime still left a trace of hope on their way to the top four of the Champions League!

Ferguson has changed from "defeating more enemies" to "appreciating more rising stars" in recent years. The situation forces him to know the roots of the new trend even if he does not blindly follow the mainstream, and often some born coaches are always the drivers of the new trend.

Arsene Wenger, who came to London 14 years ago, exclaimed at Fleet Street: who is Arsene?

It turned out to be Ferguson's enemy for the next decade.

Six years ago, when Mourinho parachuted to Stamford Bridge, Ferguson and Mourinho also changed from disgusting and killing each other to sympathizing with each other.

If there is anyone else who can give Ferguson the feeling of facing Wenger and Mourinho for the first time in the past, it must be today's situ Yunbing.

It's just that it's too late.

ARS è ne Wenger is elegant. Arsenal, who took over at that time, still had the support of the championship team.

Mourinho publicized, made no secret of his edge, and even happily stabbed everyone's eyes.

Situ Yunbing is humble and gives people a hidden low-key. Ferguson likes drinking new wine. At this time, he tastes a little different.

No team will not make mistakes, no coach will not make mistakes, but the test of coaches and teams is often the speed of correcting mistakes!

Guardiola's strength lies in that he has created a tactical system with higher fault tolerance and nuclear weapons with error correction ability. Even if the team in Barcelona fails, as long as Messi stands up, all problems are not a problem. Even if Messi is silent and the team in Barcelona has no problems, it is also plain sailing.

Situ Yunbing has no team in Barcelona and no nuclear button to press. Therefore, his error correction depends entirely on him.

At present, he has done well, which makes Ferguson feel a little excited.

Manchester United's correction depends more on experience, fighting will and the magic that has become a tradition!

The first half of the game was a one-man play by Manchester United. What everyone saw was how Manchester United crushed Monaco, familiar rhythm, familiar taste and familiar trend.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, it turned into a real confrontation between Manchester United and Monaco. Manchester United's lowering pace was caused by changes in the situation. Holding two goals ahead, it was necessary to strengthen some defense. Most of the adjustments of the traditional coach were like this. Not surprisingly, I'm afraid that the new generation coach would think of chasing after the victory at this time, because Ferguson, who is more experienced, knows that, At present, the best choice is to score as many goals as possible without losing the ball, rather than trying to score as many as you can regardless of the risk of losing the ball!

Monaco's adjustment is also to get away goals as much as possible on the basis of ensuring that there are no more goals lost.

The tip of the needle is against the wheat awn!

After Suarez and Gareth bell moved two flanks, the central defense contracted, Manchester United's flank attack weakened, and the central attack also played a little difficult. Rooney and park Zhixing's playing space were suppressed, Fletcher couldn't go up, Carrick guaranteed the attack and defense conversion in the middle and back court, and Scholes met a setback when he wanted to play a subtle cooperation in a small range.

The game became relatively sticky, and there were not as many wonderful scenes as in the first half. It seemed that Manchester United fell into the bottleneck of attack, and Monaco's counterattack was a little short of heat.

In the 62nd minute of the game, after Gareth bell received Moro's long pass from the left, he turned and quickly pushed forward the attack. On the stand near him, Manchester United fans shouted "bad luck" to him repeatedly. Gareth bell was unaffected and quickly dribbled to the dangerous area of attack, facing Gary Neville's defense, Gareth bell quickly hit the ball back obliquely and then ran forward.

Mattic touched the ball before Fletcher. In the second half, if Monaco attacked on the left, Mattic would insert forward. If it attacked on the right, wittsell would insert forward. The attack investment is small, but they all have careful arrangements for tactical cooperation.

Manchester United fans saw Gareth bell quickly rush past Neville, then the bottom spike changed to cross cut into the Manchester United restricted area!

Gary Neville was obviously thrown away. At this moment, I have to admit that he is also old.

Gareth bell, who crossed into the penalty area, quickly swept the ball in front of the goal from near the baseline before Ferdinand came to block it!

The ball passed suddenly, like a small angle shot. Van der Sar was almost shaken. Suarez appeared at the back of the goal. Van der Sar quickly moved to the back of the goal and saved in advance less than one meter away from Suarez. Vidic blocked the line where Suarez didn't shoot, stopped the ball and buckled van der Sar, This is the biggest reason why van der Sar put out the blockade in advance.

Suarez is expected to grab a direct pad shot!

The result seemed doomed before he shot, because van der Sar had blocked 99% of the angle, and the 1% angle was nothing more than a hole for the miracle.

The reality is that there is no miracle. Van der Sar blocked Suarez's shot.

This is Monaco's closest goal in this game!

Suarez looked helpless and lamented the strength of his predecessor van der Sar and the calm atmosphere of Vidic blocking his spiking line!

This may really be the temperament and experience of the top giants, which is where many players yearn for the giants.

Situ Yunbing was disappointed inside, but on the surface, he didn't show any disappointment.

On the positive side, Monaco's offensive threat is increasing!

Three minutes later, when Suarez dribbled and pushed on the right, Evra was skillfully changed by Suarez because of his rash grab. After that, Vidic had to pull it out for top defense. He went to attack Suarez with Fletcher, but Suarez immediately knocked the ball across the middle after the defender in the middle left, Perez came up with an assist to grab ahead of Carrick and sent the ball straight to the middle of the penalty area.

Ferdinand came forward to break the ball, but Gareth bell took the lead from him. Ferdinand really had a trance illusion: Owen?!

Gareth bell of Monaco is also a wind chaser!

The Red Devils fans in the Old Trafford stands were instantly terrified!

Single knife!

When Gareth bell crossed the ball obliquely into the right rib of the restricted area, the ball was too large, which gave van der Sar time to abandon the door. When Gareth bell caught up with the football shot, van der Sar was also ready to save two meters in front of him.

Gareth bell is still very calm. His speed makes it impossible for him to stop and change direction or continue to cross van der Sar along the original route, which may directly push the ball out of the bottom line!

So he can only shoot, and he chooses to use his right foot to shoot the ball to the far corner of the goal!

At the moment when he shot the football, van der Sar seemed to instinctively raise his right hand to block under the condition of lowering the center of gravity.

The palm of his right hand just touched the football, which changed the direction of the football. Edwin van der Sar turned his head and looked at it. The rotating football finally turned the Red Devils' fans from worry to surprise. The football rubbed the outside of the far post and flew out of the bottom line.

be struck with fright!

"Van der Sar magically resolved Gareth Bell's challenge!

How wonderful!

Evra's rash grab made the whole defence of Manchester United flawed!

This chain reaction is the emptiness of defense in the middle. Gareth bell turned from the side to the middle and cut the ball to form a single knife, but empirically, Manchester United won!

Van der Sar's save plunged Monaco into despair!

Their threat is rising, but they can't get over the mountain of van der Sar! "

Gareth bell crouched in the Manchester United restricted area to hide his face. Although he was not fully sure, he was unwilling to accept that van der Sar almost rejected his goal by instinct.

Just as Monaco's offensive is gradually rising, and it seems that it is only a layer of window paper to break the gap, Manchester United creates a killing opportunity in a smooth play.

In the 73rd minute of the game, when Park Zhixing picked up Fletcher's pass in the middle of the front court, he had no space to turn around and dribble, nor could he find the line to pass the pass to Rooney. Nkuru and Mattic hit him back and forth, which made him have to play the ball at the first time, so he passed the ball back obliquely.

Scholes stopped in front of the center circle and lifted the ball directly to the left baseline.

The football landing point is near the junction of the bottom line and the big restricted area line. Nani quickly circumscribed the outside line and cut the bottom inside, and then stopped the ball smoothly. Modesto and benatia came to attack him together, which seems to have closed him to a dead end.

Nani took a step forward to enter the restricted area, then suddenly picked the ball and killed it between benatia and Modesto!

The football passed and Nani fell to the ground when he followed up!

Benatia turned to block and cut off the connection between Nani and football. This is a very regular defense, but what benatia didn't expect was the referee's whistle!

The referee's finger at Monaco's penalty spot made the Manchester United fans ecstatic!

Old Trafford is boiling!

"Penalty! Benatia's foul in the penalty area gave Manchester United a penalty!

This penalty is likely to kill Monaco!

Benatia excitedly explained to the referee that he didn't think it was a penalty. He may not know where he committed a foul.

But slow motion replay can tell us what happened.

When benatia stopped Nani, his arm was raised. Although he didn't intentionally hit Nani, Nani still hit benatia's arm with his neck in the forward rush. Nani fell to the ground. He covered his chin and neck as if he had been punched. "

Benatia was shown a yellow card. If the referee decided that it was dangerous and intentional for benatia to raise his hand too high, it would not be too much to give a red card.

Situ Yunbing angrily protested to the fourth official, and the Manchester United fans in the nearby stands couldn't help cheering him.

Ferguson looked at everything in his eyes. Looking at the angry young man, he seemed to see himself a long time ago. At that time, he was almost fired by Manchester United. That was the dark era of Manchester United. That was the era when he had not tasted the taste of championship in seven years.

Can't you look back?

No, that's the wealth that benefits a lifetime.

The penalty can't be changed. Rooney personally took the penalty kick in one move!

De GEA made a wrong prediction. The penalty shot by Rooney was like a knife inserted into the heart of Monaco!

“3:0！ Manchester United lead Monaco 3-0 at home! If this score is maintained to end the game, Manchester United will definitely be satisfied with this result, because in the history of the Champions League knockout, Manchester United has never tried to lead by three goals in the first leg and then be eliminated by their opponents. At the same time, there is only one record in the history of the Champions League that Manchester United led 3-0 in the first leg and was finally overturned in the knockout stage, which was in the distant semi-final of the Champions League in 1986, Barcelona lost 3-0 in the first leg and returned to Camp Nou to draw 3-0 with Gothenburg, Sweden. Finally, they advanced to the finals with a penalty shoot out.

Monaco is a pity. Their performance in the second half is getting better and better, but the gap behind the team is getting bigger and bigger. This is football. Either your offensive is more threatening or your performance is relatively better, you will score more goals than your opponent.

I hope these boys in Monaco can hold on! "

Despair?

Monaco fans are desperate!

Monaco players also feel numb and don't know how to deal with the next game.

It's like a mistake, losing everything!

At this time, they looked at the side of the field, but saw situ Yunbing call vitsel in front of him. After holding him, they didn't know what to say. Vitsel quickly ran back to the field to pass a message to his teammates.

Situ Yunbing was cold with his hands on his hips.

0:3!

This has reached the most painful moment in his coaching career. Unlike losing to Lorient in the league, he is really embarrassed on the stage of the Champions League.

As a rookie, what can you be unconvinced when you are beaten 0:3?

But on the Champions League stage, situ Yunbing really can't accept the current score.

As for Monaco's promotion situation, he doesn't have to think about it. He knows that it's on the edge of elimination. Maybe everyone except Monaco has sentenced them to death!

Seeing situ Yunbing with his head held high, his suit shirt open and his hands on his hips, I didn't know he thought he was the manager of Manchester United!

How can you be so impressive after three goals?

But that's fucking faith!

Anyway, situ Yunbing won't give up!

Fight to the end!

Even if there are mistakes in the preparations before the start of the game, do you admit your fate?

Even half of the two rounds of the game have not been finished. What is the reason to kneel down for Manchester United?

Monaco needs goals, needs away goals!

Even 1:4 is better than 0:3!

However, situ Yunbing did not lose his mind. Under the background that the challenge goal of the season has been completed, he actually thought that he could devote himself to his work completely better, because he had no worries!

Monaco did not replace, while Manchester United did. Premier League evergreen Ryan Giggs came on as a substitute to replace Nani.

Obviously, the current score is satisfactory for Ferguson!

Giggs came on to help Manchester United control the scene, ensure the quality of the attack through his experience and avoid losing the ball early in the attack and being counterattacked by Monaco.

Monaco started the attack from the left after the kick-off. Mattic retreated to strengthen the defense, Moro's assists strengthened, and weltonhen's backcourt ball task was heavier.

Manchester United obviously shrunk the defensive line in the middle and back court and resisted Monaco's three attacks in succession. Manchester United's attack began to lose its threat gradually because the rhythm decreased.

This is also a common problem of Premier League teams. They are strong when the rhythm is fast. Once the rhythm drops, their playing method is very rough and it is difficult to make a real threat by stripping the cocoon. Liverpool led by Benitez in the past two years is the best example, which is jokingly called X * * t by fans!

As time went by, the Red Devils fans in the stands of Old Trafford were already singing the team song.

Situ Yunbing still keeps his hands on his hips to supervise the battle. Many Red Devils fans think situ Yunbing is putting on airs.

Desperate!

This is Monaco's European Championship road in a desperate situation.

Gareth bell and Suarez's impact threat decreased, and Manchester United became more and more stable after they became familiar with their attack.

If you return to Monaco with a 0-3 score, I'm afraid Manchester United will easily advance to the top four of the Champions League in the next round, continuing the glory of the Red Devils, while Monaco will only be a flash in the pan in European football this season.

Situ Yunbing didn't think about going to Falcao, but who to replace was a headache. The midfield defense managed to contain the Manchester United Offensive. Scholes and Carrick were only threatened by Scholes's long-distance overhead pass in the whole second half, and they did nothing at other times!

The withdrawal of defenders is a struggle. At Old Trafford, there are no advantages in time, place and people. Is it a struggle for life and death with Manchester United? The probability is that situ Yunbing dragged Monaco's body away.

Withdrawing from the midfield affected the system. Situ Yunbing hesitated and did not make a replacement decision.

Especially if you want to change it, you should change it in at least 60 minutes. At that time, you can give Falcao time to adapt to the game. If you change it in the last 15 minutes, it really belongs to buying lottery tickets.

In the 87th minute of the game, after Gareth bell received morrow's pass on the left, he quickly pushed forward the attack, and then suddenly smashed and cut when encountering Gary Neville. The football passed, but no one passed. Gary Neville stretched his legs and put bell to the ground.

The referee whistled for a foul. Gareth bell stood up and put the ball in place to start a free kick. The Manchester United defense players were also on the way back to the restricted area. At this time, Gareth bell looked behind and Moro was running up quickly. Gareth bell immediately ran forward towards the left rib of the restricted area. His movement aroused the vigilance of the Manchester United defense. Neville, Fletcher and Ferdinand all went to the left rib of the restricted area for marking.

Vidic, Carrick and Evra are marking Suarez. Other players are alert to Monaco's midfielders matic and Perez, who are walking towards the restricted area.

While morrow was running up, there was another man running forward at full speed in parallel with him!

Wiltonhorn!

Under the condition that the situation was almost static, Gareth Bell's movement only caused a small disturbance, but the galloping forward of morrow and Weil Tongheng from the middle line was particularly eye-catching!

It's like two wild horses racing!

Wiltonhorn still didn't slow down when he ran to the restricted area, and he pointed to the sky in the direction of morrow!

The Manchester United defence suddenly panicked, and many players turned around and tried to stop Weil Tongheng, but they obviously had a huge gap in speed with Weil Tongheng!

At the moment when wiltonham entered the Manchester United restricted area, the calm and calm Morro rushed to the front of the football and crossed directly!

Situ Yunbing put down his hands on his hips and shook them into fists!

Morrow's cross with a strongly rotating arc around the restricted area began to fall over the crowd's head. The landing point was in the hinterland of the right rib of the restricted area, behind the Manchester United defence!

Manchester United are not ready at all!

Not ready at all!

Moro and weltongheng match this pass and run, and the football landing point is also very accurate!

Gareth bell Duff, Suarez Duff!

Mattic, Perez, vitsell, these heroes who eliminated Real Madrid seem to have fallen!

But there are people in Monaco who stand up in desperate situations!

Weier Tongheng's strong forward, middle and top posture deeply shocked all the audience. Even those who were not on the scene across the TV could feel goose bumps and hair blowing up!

It was like a figure from heaven, with a strong and unparalleled impact, smashing the ball into the upper right corner of Manchester United's goal!

Then he also followed the forward dive and slipped into Manchester United's goal!

Van der Sar was stunned!

He's not ready!

Wiltonhorn immediately got up and ran towards the midfield with a cold look holding the football.

If Suarez and Edwin van der Sar are only half the same door, then Weil Tongheng and Edwin van der Sar are the children of Miao Hong Ajax. This junior brother who came out more than ten years later really shocked the senior senior senior brother!

"What happened? What happened? Wiltonhorn header!

Monaco pulled back a goal!

More importantly, Monaco scored away goals!

The score became 3-1!

Monaco only got an ordinary free kick from the side, but Gareth Bell's sudden run made the Manchester United defense a little flustered. Then we saw morrow and wiltonham running forward quickly. Morrow ran up to open the free kick, and wiltonham hit the right side of the Manchester United restricted area with a clear purpose, When the Manchester United defender reacts, it's too late!

Everyone thought Monaco had no hope, but they pulled back a goal tenaciously!

Will this ball change their fate?

At least for now, we cannot say that Monaco is in a desperate situation.

If they can win Manchester United 2-0 in the next round, they can advance to the top four of the Champions League! "

Ferguson's face was dignified and not very good-looking. The goal seemed to change the situation!

The subtlety of the situation is that if Manchester United win Monaco 3-0, Monaco will basically be out.

But Monaco has now scored a, and Manchester United's advantage has been greatly reduced!

Because the score of 3-1 is much worse than 2-0 for Manchester United!

Very simple truth, Manchester United 3-1 Monaco, Monaco 2-0 in the second leg eliminated Manchester United.

But Manchester United 2-0 Monaco, even if Monaco wins Manchester United 2-0 in the second round, it will have to play overtime!

This is the value of away goals in the Champions League!

Situ Yunbing didn't celebrate the goal. He clenched his fist and waved it heavily on the sidelines, and his expression was still cold. Then he reminded the players to stick to it. It's hard to counter attack at this time. Even the free kick opportunity of the goal was not bought by the team.

On the contrary, will Manchester United be in a hurry now?

Will the increased offensive give Monaco an opportunity to take advantage of it?

Unfortunately, No.

In the last few minutes of the game, both teams attach great importance to defense. If we only look at the results of the game, Monaco may be in a bad situation, but if we divide the game into the first and second half, Monaco is 0-2 behind in the first half and 1-3 in the second half. The situation is a little better than at the end of the first half!

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, situ Yunbing turned to leave. At this time, he saw Ferguson coming down from the coach's seat. After shaking hands, they parted ways.

Despite the ridicule of the fans on the sidelines, situ Yunbing walked to the player channel as usual.

His team suffered the worst defeat of the season!

No way, who let Monaco not lose in the French domestic competition, and only lost 0-1 at home to Chelsea in the Champions League?

So this game has become Monaco's worst defeat so far this season.
