Chapter 447: 27 Balls!
"Henry scored 27 goals, Dong scored 26 goals, and the gap between the two sides really narrowed to 1 goal."
"If Dong Zai scores one, the number of goals scored by both sides in the league will be equal. Thierry Henry couldn't hold back any longer and finally came on as he replaced Bam Adebayor to partner with Robin van Persie. ”
"Listen to the cheers in the stands, Dong's name resounded throughout the audience, even if Henry came up, he might not be able to suppress this scene. But what's the point of Arsene Wenger bringing Henry on at this time? Can't figure it out...... The only explanation is that Henry didn't want to give up the top scorer and asked Arsene Wenger to send him on. ”
"After all, the glory of the Premier League's top scorer three times in a row is not something anyone can do, and if he does, he will make history!"
In Lineker's view, Henry is really worried that he will lose his position as the top scorer, and Dong Fangzhuo has brought him a lot of pressure.
Ferguson is not stupid, when he saw Henry coming up, he immediately made a move, Ferdinand and Vidic took off their coats at the same time and began to warm up, believing that Ferguson would send the two of them on the field in a few minutes......
But if he played like that, he would have lost two substitutions, and he had thought of getting one or two of the tridents off early, but either way, the victory was the most important thing.
But time waits for no one, and after Henry comes up, it seems that Arsenal's momentum has come up. That's the power of the core.
In the 55th minute, Henry retreated to meet his friend Pire, so as not to let Pire have too much pain, and then turned around in a dashing way to break through the South African Fuqiong, and then immediately changed direction and went to the middle! On the second hand to the edge of the United penalty area, Carrick came up to block, but Thierry Henry suddenly played the ball to Robin van Persie.
Van Persie's left foot is pulled and buttoned! The three movements were done in one go, and in an instant, he turned around and passed the somewhat clumsy Pique.
But Pique's hand movements reacted quickly, directly pulling Van Persie down.
Toot –
The referee immediately threw him a yellow card.
The substitution sign was immediately raised on the field!
Ferguson won't give another chance, with Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdinand coming on at the same time to replace Silvestre and Pique.
Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdinand are clearly the two centre-backs he trusts the most, and although he has dealt some blows to the first two, he has had to do so in order to win.
In the 58th minute, Pire finally made his first cross from the right......
Just look for Henry.
Thierry Henry swam to the left side of the United penalty area, unloaded the ball with his left foot and mingled with Basley. Just a slight shake of his right foot in place, and then a sudden acceleration again, Henry easily got rid of Basley.
Henry didn't let his chances slip away, and immediately fired a right-footed shot from 24 yards on the left, but the ball flew just over the crossbar.
Maybe the appearance time is too hasty, and the foot feeling of shooting has not come out yet!
There was a huge boo from the stands, and at this time, as long as Henry got the ball, they had to give him some boos, and they had to help Dong Fangzhuo as much as possible.
A minute later, Eboue cut past Wayne Rooney on the right and cut into a cross near the bottom line on the right side of the box, but Van Persie, who was at the far post, tried to push the ball from close range but missed the ball.
In the 60th minute, Ferguson made another move, Patrice Evra came up to replace Richardson, and almost played Arsenal with the main line-up. It also meant that Ferguson had used up three substitutions.
As soon as he came up, Patrice Evra crossed from the left to find Wayne Rooney, but Toure cleared before Rooney.
Carrick then got the ball at the back and handed it to Cristiano Ronaldo on the right, who drove the ball on the right side to the edge of the penalty area, and then resolutely burst into the box when Cesc Fabregas rushed over.
Cesc Fabregas faced Cristiano Ronaldo, who did not hesitate to fall in the box.
"Penalty?"
"Pol waved his hand, no!"
Bol, who was close at hand, refused to award a penalty.
Ronaldo wants to be opportunistic, but the referee is not deceived by him.
After he got up depressed, he buried his head and rushed back, Gilberto didn't expect Ronaldo to be able to take the ball behind him behind him!
Then Ronaldo immediately crossed the ball to Carrick, who knocked it directly to Rooney, who could have done anything at 28 yards in the middle, but he still dialed it to Dong Fangzhuo, and finally Dong Fangzhuo completed a long shot, but Lehmann pounced the ball into his arms again.
In the 70th minute, Arsene Wenger replaced the inactive Cesc Fabregas with Diaby. Cesc Fabregas may have been tired, he was alive for the first fifteen minutes of the first half, and then he was as depressed as the team, and Wenger was going to think about the Champions League.
However, Thierry Henry was trying to find the back of the net.
He didn't come up to warm up, he wanted to score.
Dong was just one ball away from him and he wanted to pull away, while his good friend Pire, who seemed to be alive and creating a set-piece for him from 28 yards down the middle.
There were loud boos again from the stands, trying to interfere with Henry's free throw.
Henry watched for a long time in front of the human wall, and finally hit a bocce ball. But his shot missed the woodwork and went wide of the left-hand post.
They soon made a comeback, though, when Hleb burst in from the left, Buster shoveled the ball off the line and Arsenal won a corner.
"What did you do earlier?"
"Now you want to feed Henry?"
Even the central defender Toure rushed up and stood by Henry's side, naturally wanting to help Henry block part of the defense.
Hleb took a corner kick from the right, and Toure was blocked by Ferdinand at the front post, but Ferdinand couldn't jump either, and Henry and Vidic fought for the top in the middle.
But in the end, Henry was squeezed out of his balance by Vidic in the air, and Vidic emerged as the winning side, and he headed the ball out.
Patrice Evra, who had just come on the field, immediately rushed out of the penalty area and kicked the ball out with the outside of his left foot, but Carrick rushed up with a brisk step, raised his left leg to hook the ball, and did not let the ball fall back into the opponent's feet, and then rubbed an arc with his right foot, directly looking for Ronaldo on the right!
Manchester United's fast break came into play immediately!
Rooney rushed to the middle, and Dong Fangzhuo pulled to the left. The three of them rushed forward quickly.
Manchester United fans were surprised by this scene.
As soon as the ball crossed the halfway line, Ronaldo chose to pass through!
Rooney successfully burst into the penalty area on the right side against offside, Senderos tried to make a tackle, Rooney crossed near the bottom line on the right side of the penalty area, and Dong Fangzhuo pushed the empty goal into the net before Eboue from a distance.
During the whole process, Ebue could only passively follow behind Dong Fangzhuo.
“goooooooal!”
“gooooooooooooal!”
“DF!”
"It worked."
"Dong successfully scored his 27th league goal, it's crazy, it's incredible!"
"He's scored the same number of goals as Thierry Henry now! The two of them are now tied for the league's top scorers. ”
"27 goals, only he has reached the heights of Thierry Henry. I wouldn't dare say he's at the level of Thierry Henry, but he's scored a lot of goals. Even if Manchester United don't win the league title this season, they have at least found the core of Manchester United's forward line for the next decade! ”
The stands rose and fell with each other, and Old Trafford's chants never stopped until the end of the game.
Time is running out for Arsenal, just about five minutes.
With two goals down, Arsenal has no intention of fighting.
In the end, Bol blew the whistle for the end of the game in less than a minute of stoppage time.
Arsenal lost 2-0 at Manchester United, continuing their four-year run of winless spells......
Manchester United, on the other hand, continues to be close behind Chelsea by two points, and the race for the league title has entered a white heat, and no one has been left behind.
