Beijing time, October 19, 2005, Manchester.

"Because Rooney's suspension was reduced to one, Rooney got the start."

"Ronaldo,"

'Ronaldo broke down the right, he got past Chalmer and Rooney went wide of ...... for the header'

"Ronaldo shoots from distance, misses."

"Rooney, didn't catch the ball."

"Rooney, I didn't touch the ball again."

"Scholes,"

Paul Scholes received a second yellow card, in the 63rd minute, Scholes fouled Marcon in the 63rd minute, and Italian referee Farina, who officiated the Champions League match for the sixth time, took out a second yellow card and sent off the Manchester United midfielder.

"Ronaldo breaks through ......"

"The ball misses ......"

'Oh damn it, a draw, neither side scored, Manchester United couldn't knock on Lille's goal at home, it was 0-0. In the third round of the Champions League group stage, Manchester United still could not win, they had a record of one win and two draws in the first three rounds, and after the absence of Chinese Dong, the team continued to slump, losing the league and drawing the Champions Cup. ”

"What's wrong with this Manchester United? The original attack is still so strong, but the last two games have delivered such poor results, the league has been pulled away by Chelsea by five points, although the Champions League is undefeated, but the points and the other three teams have not opened up, both fronts are quite bad. ”

'Manchester United continued to sink at Old Trafford, with Giggs, who was making his 100th European appearance, watched his old team-mate Paul Scholes sent off......

"Without Chinese Dong, it is difficult for Ronaldo to lead Manchester United to continue to win, and Rooney continues to be invisible, Manchester United needs Chinese Dong!"

"Manchester United is missing the Chinese Dong!"

After the game, the media were calling for Dong Fangzhuo......

It seems that everyone has recognized the importance of Dong Fangzhuo in the Manchester United team.

With one loss and one draw, Manchester United ushered in a low point after consecutive wins at the beginning of the season. First they lost 3-1 to Sunderland and then drew 0-0 with Lille.

Having dropped two games in the most crucial stages of the season, Manchester United's league table has been stretched to five points by Chelsea, which is a huge gap. In these two games, Manchester United basically did not create any chances to shoot, and the forwards were very mediocre, which was in stark contrast to when Dong Fangzhuo was there.

During the Champions Cup and Lille match, fans kept chanting Dong Fangzhuo's name at the scene, especially when Rooney came off the pitch.

But Dong Fangzhuo is now preparing for the life-and-death battle between the national team and the South Korean team, and there is no chance to come back to save Manchester United.

Then, the time was fast approaching the weekend, with United hosting fierce rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

Ferguson heard a shrill boo at the scene, which was actually given to Ferguson.

For the first time in 15 years, Old Trafford hailed Alex Ferguson into the pitch with a boo. Traditionally, the defection of the fans is often a bad sign of the manager's dismissal, indicating that the break between the fans and Ferguson may only be a matter of time.

United fans have been loyal to Ferguson for many years, whether it is his personal feud with David Beckham, the legal dispute with the Irish racecourse tycoon, and the recent Glazer takeover, they have unconditionally supported Ferguson as the Messiah of Manchester United, but the previous two games have undoubtedly disappointed them. Speaking to Sky cameras, Ferguson also admitted: "Losing was a big blow, we've been doing really well over the years. I'm worried about the gap between us and Chelsea, but the most important thing is to get back on winning track right away. ”

It was announced on the pre-match radio that there was no Rooney in the starter! More than 60,000 home fans couldn't believe their ears, and Ferguson was once again met with crazy despise from the fans.

Rooney didn't give it, and Ferguson left the opportunity to Saha, hoping that Saha could turn the tide.

But

United had just eight of their 27 shots on target, but it looked like they had a better chance of missing the target, with Paul Scholes hitting in front of goal, Smith hitting a shot from outside the box, Cristiano Ronaldo heading in a corner and Saha Saha pushing high from six yards...... Saha missed at least 4 great chances.

Tottenham, on the other hand, had all 10 shots on target, something that had never been done by a visiting team in the last three years. Thanks to Van der Sar's bravery, Manchester United held out until the 33rd minute before the goal was lost. During this time, Bellamy, Bentley, Dickov and Gray all came close to success.

The home team's supporters, fed up with the stiff tactics and half-dead spectacle, could not contain the long-standing dissatisfaction, and at the beginning of the second half there was a deafening cry from the stands: "442! Rooney! ”

Alex Ferguson was under pressure to bring on Wayne Rooney and 10 minutes later Saha equalised with a long-range shot from Wayne Rooney. Rooney did make a difference, but that's about it.

In the end, Manchester United were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Tottenham Hotspur.

Lineker predicted: "If we don't win the next two games, Manchester United won't have any hope of winning the title. ”

'Manchester United started the season well but now that they are behind and they shouldn't be thinking about Chelsea and they can't expect Chelsea to lose points to win the title.

'It's another test away at Middlesbrough and then they have to face Chelsea! Chelsea are on a winning streak so far! No team can organise them and if United are all going to fail, then I really don't see any hope for United......"

Yes, Tottenham Hotspur can't win at home, can Middlesbrough win away against McLaren? Then back at home to face Chelsea, United's most crucial games are coming, with the Carabao Cup and the away Champions Cup in between......

"Dong Fangzhuo, do you think Manchester United needs you very much right now?" When the domestic media interviewed Dong Fangzhuo, they asked Dong Fangzhuo.

'I don't know, Manchester United have been in a bad situation lately, it's not one person's problem, it's the whole team's problem, I'd love to help the team, but I have to go back after the South Korean game.

'There's a lot of English media that have been saying that you don't have a big role at Manchester United, do you think Manchester United's lack of you is the reason for the poor results?

"Haha, I'm not a manager, I don't know much about that, but I think it would be a little different without me."

"Is it like the national team?"

"This ...... The national team is different, in the national team, the cooperation between teammates is not tacit enough, and they definitely do not play well in the club. When it comes to the national team, Dong Fangzhuo is even more tactful, he can't offend people for no reason.

Tomorrow's game against South Korea, are you confident that you can win the game?

"This is our home turf! Do you think we can't win? ”

"You know, their home stadium isn't very good either."
