Chapter 779

Back in the dressing room, Ferguson's first words were: "why not strengthen the attack?"

Back line tight, but to strengthen the offensive?

Everyone was confused and didn't know how to answer.

Sir Alex's trusted disciple Paul Scholes took the pot and said: "the centre backs are all yellow cards. I asked Gao to strengthen the protection of the defence."

Although Scholes said that he let his teammates retreat to strengthen the protection of the back line, but Ferguson is very clear that the back line is unstable, even if Scholes does not say, no player can concentrate on the attack, Scholes just take the responsibility to himself.

"Why defend?" Ferguson said excitedly? Scared? This is Old Trafford. We are seven points ahead of Liverpool. If the defence is unstable, we have to attack and score more goals than our opponents! Instead of fighting back, it's Old Trafford

Manchester United players bowed their heads when they saw Ferguson half open.

After Ferguson finished, he seemed to have more than enough, then said: "a team like Liverpool doesn't deserve us to fight back. Let's go out in the second half!"

No one asked defense what to do? What about two centre backs with yellow cards? They believe that since Ferguson said so, it means that he has his own arrangement. Just do what Ferguson said. This is the authority. No matter right or wrong, the players will believe him unconditionally.

After Ferguson formulated the operational policy for the second half, he began to analyze the performance of Manchester United players in the first half. Ferguson only praised the positive Berbatov and attacking Gao Xiaodong, but did not criticize any players. However, we can feel that Ferguson is not satisfied with Rooney and is not satisfied with the defense of Gao Xiaodong and Scholes Meaning.

However, Rooney's recent off court fetters are too many. Scholes is old and can't defend normally. Gao Xiaodong scored a goal in the first half. It's impossible for Gao Xiaodong to dominate both ends of the attack and defense when playing against a team like Liverpool.

However, Ferguson did not say anything about centre back Evans, who should be criticized most in defense. After all, Evans is young and a substitute. Under the condition that the back midfield does not protect him enough, there is no way to deal with such a talented forward as Torres.

The visiting team's dressing room

coach Hodgson was satisfied with the performance of the players. United scored two goals. The first one was Gao Xiaodong's immortal ball, which the goalkeeper could not hold. The second one was the goal in the counterattack. At that time, Liverpool were behind and had to attack, then they were hit back.

In the face of a team like Manchester United, as long as you attack, it's impossible not to give them the chance to fight back.

After 45 minutes of competition and comparison in the first half, Hodgson has a more intuitive understanding of the strength of Manchester United. Manchester United's strength is indeed better than that of Liverpool. Therefore, he is satisfied with the 2-2 score. He hopes the team will play defense and counterattack in the second half, keep a draw and win. When he returns to the home court, he can compete with Ferguson.

However, Gerrard is not satisfied with Hodgson's arrangement. As the boss and spiritual leader of the team, Gerrard's position in the Red Army is no worse than Hodgson's. When Hodgson deployed his tactics and returned to the coach's lounge, Gerrard found Hodgson.

"Coach, the match with Manchester United is extraordinary. Once the morale of the opponent comes out, can we defend and fight back?"

Time is tight, Gerrard didn't beat around the Bush and said frankly.

Although Gerrard is for the good of the team, in Hodgson's opinion, this is a question of his authority. However, Gerrard has a high status in Liverpool. Even if Hodgson is a coach, he must respect his advice.

Hodgson light way: "Steve, you worry too much.". Rooney is not in good form, Berbatov has no impact, they can't break through our double defense.

"don't forget that Steven Gerrard is the best attacking coach

Hodgson said with a smile: "now United have two centre backs with yellow cards. United only have Gao Xiaodong who is in charge of defending. I'm afraid he can't afford to take care of himself. How can he have so much energy to attack?"

Gerrard was still unconvinced and said: "what if Ferguson replaces Scholes and Fletcher?"

Hodgson said: "if Ferguson replaces Fletcher, then Gao Xiaodong is the only one who organizes and promotes the midfield. Can he create his own opportunities and then shoot by himself? If Ferguson does make such adjustments, then I will have a way to deal with him

Gerrard was convinced by Hodgson, he did not come to find fault, he just did not understand, since Hodgson has taken into account all aspects of the situation, then Gerrard also achieved the goal.

Fifteen minutes later, the game started again. Manchester United and Liverpool did not change players. Both sides continued to play with the same team.

After Berbatov and Rooney kicked off in the middle circle, the Manchester United players carried out Ferguson's request to attack and quickly pushed forward three lines to attack Liverpool's penalty area.

In the first minute of the second half, Nani's attack on the side attracted the right leaning of the Liverpool formation, then quickly passed to Vidic in the middle and Vidic to Giggs, completing a large-scale transfer.Liverpool's formation immediately moved to the left, preventing United from attacking from the left.

Giggs and Evra launched a quick attack to the bottom line. They cooperated continuously but failed to break through Johnson's defense. Giggs passed back to Scholes, who saw Nani unattended on the side and found Nani on the side.

Gao Xiaodong saw Scholes pass the ball to Nani, he immediately ran to the rib of the penalty area, and raised his hand to Nani for the ball.

Gao Xiaodong asked Nani for the ball several times in the first half, but Nani didn't pass it. This time, Nani was criticized by Ferguson alone, and the ball was not easy to handle. After he stopped, it was estimated that defender Konchesky would also stick it. He didn't have a chance to break through, so he headed the ball to Gao Xiaodong.

Gao Xiaodong didn't expect Nani to pass so well. He just ran to the right edge of the penalty area and Nani's ball arrived.

Without hesitation, Gao Xiaodong adjusted his step, bent his bow and arrow, and volleyed the ball to the right side of the goal.

The shot was powerful and heavy, reaching the goal in an instant.

But Liverpool goalkeeper Reina is the world's top goalkeeper. He is focused, quick to react, leaps up and hits the ball out of the box with both fists.

United finished a shot at the beginning of the second half, and it was Gao Xiaomen, the midfield man in charge of United's defense, who scored before winter. This is a signal that United do not want to defend.

However, Liverpool did not pay attention to this signal, they still think that Gao Xiaodong dare not go too far, and did not take targeted defensive measures against Gao Xiaodong's attack.

In the 50th minute of the game, Manchester United made a long pass and the ball was headed out by Carragher, the centre back of Liverpool, and the ball was snatched by Gao Xiaodong and passed to Scholes.

Scholes hoisted the ball into the penalty area, and Rooney and Berbatov attacked the Liverpool area.

Berbatov and Carragher scrambled for the header. Their heads collided and the ball fell to Rooney's feet. Rooney was closely followed by Skrtel and couldn't turn. However, Rooney was eager to score and forced to turn to shoot. The ball hit Skrtel and popped out of the penalty area.

The ball just popped out, Gao Xiaodong suddenly hit the ball from the back court, and it was a fury shot to meet the ball before the Liverpool midfield's Paulson came out.

The ball, like a cloud piercing arrow, flies to the left side of the goal along the seam like lightning.

When Gao Xiaodong shot, goalkeeper Reina was blocked by the players in the restricted area. When he saw the ball, he had no hope of saving. Reina didn't even do the symbolic action, so he watched the ball fly into the net in front of him.

3: 2

GAO xiaodongmei scored twice to help Manchester United beat the score again.
