Chapter 405: 21 years old, 21 balls!
Rafael Benitez's side have now lost two goals without even resisting.
At this time, the stadium was full of Old Trafford fans singing, Benitez's head was buzzing, if Dong Fangzhuo's goal just now pierced his heart, then Ronaldo's goal was a supplement.
There is no difference between death and death.
There is still half an hour left for them, but if they want to chase two goals in a row, it may not be too difficult.
Liverpool line?
They started to go crazy and attack.
Alonso and Sissoko have both moved forward and overwhelmed midfield, leaving United with only Dong Fangzhuo to break forward, with Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney both returning to half-time. It's not the first time they've played against Liverpool and they've had plenty of experience.
They don't dare to take Liverpool lightly, and they can finally reverse Milan to win the championship after falling behind 0:3 in the Champions League, such Liverpool dare not underestimate it.
In the 63rd minute, Gerrard led Liverpool to attack on the right, but Rooney kicked the ball out of the bottom line when he tried to break through with the ball, right-back Finnan rushed up and immediately threw a throw-in, Cisse grabbed the ball in front of Van der Sar six yards in front of the goal, and Vidic reacted quickly to clear the ball in front of the goal line!
But clearance wasn't far off, as a somewhat silent Colwill intercepted the ball on the left and fired a left-footed volley into the near corner from 25 yards.
Van der Sar judged the shooting route and slapped the ball out with one palm, but the ball still didn't fly far!
Cisse pushes with his left foot from 8 yards in front of goal......
The ball went in.
Beep –
The referee took the penalty but the United players almost all raised their hands.
"Offside!"
'It was an offside goal! Cisse was caught offside and slotted out. ”
However, the referee's hand still pointed to the center circle.
"Oh, that's a miscalculation."
Nemanja Vidic and Patrice Evra saw it clearly, so they chased after the referee, begged for justice, and pointed to the linesman and said: "You should listen to the linesman." ”
"The linesman wouldn't think it was a good shot."
However, if the linesman had thought it was an offside goal, wouldn't the linesman have raised the flag earlier? Just because the linesman did not raise the flag, the referee made a penalty according to his own judgment!
But the slow motion showed that Cisse's goal was an offside goal, and United had to be deflated......
Ferguson stood on the sidelines, chewing gum at a rapid pace, and every time he saw him do this, it meant that he was unhappy with the situation on the field and a little nervous.
The 2:0 advantage didn't last long and the score became 2:1. He was worried about Liverpool's comeback, and once Liverpool went crazy, anything could happen.
Are Manchester United holding on?
No, we still need to seize the opportunity to counterattack, we can't let Liverpool attack, Manchester United sit still.
"Steady,"
"Steady,"
Scholes played the role of an old minister, calming everyone's emotions.
'We're still one goal ahead.'
'What we have to do now is not to mess around, to focus on every defence and every attack. Cheer up, guys, victory is ours! ”
This time, the inspiration is not Dong Fangzhuo, but Scholes. Scholes reunited his teammates in the first place. He's seen too many of these scenes and can stop his teammates' mentality from going bad in the best time.
Soon, he responded with a croquette in the middle, facing the fierce Sissoko and Alonso, and when his movements were dashing, Sissoko was a little dizzy when he was teased by Scholes.
His beautiful movements drew applause from the audience and the fans cheered.
"Pretty, understated and gorgeous Scholes!"
Ryan Giggs on the wing received Paul Scholes's ball and immediately crossed near the bottom line on the right side of the penalty area, where Rooney's sweeping effort from a tight angle was parried away by Reina.
"Chubby didn't have much luck scoring today, but he assisted twice, once for Dong and once for Ronaldo, and when he was calm and composed, he was quite good, and if he could score a goal, it would be perfect."
"But now for Manchester United, you have to be careful against Liverpool's attack and you can't miss anything!"
In the 68th minute, Reese broke through Neville's cross near the bottom line on the left, the ball flew straight into the Manchester United small penalty area, Cisse headed the goal from six yards in front of the goal, Vidic secretly pushed it in the air, but Cisse's shot was deflected.
Cisse immediately yelled at the referee, believing that the referee was biased in favor of Manchester United, and the referee gave a yellow card.
He was then replaced by Pongele. But now it's Manchester United's turn to press Liverpool, and Liverpool's attacking quality is not playing well.
Steven Gerrard and Reven tried to break down the United defence on both flanks, but with Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo actively returning to defend, it was difficult for Reven and Gerrard to get another chance.
Liverpool could only start with a long ball and rush tactics, but United calmly cleared the ball.
With less than ten minutes left, it was United who once again pushed their attack to a higher climax.
The anxious Liverpool players were too eager to attack, but it allowed United to seize the opportunity to counterattack.
In the 81st minute, after Colwill's powerful shot from 25 yards on the left was blocked by Evra, Manchester United immediately launched a quick counterattack, Dong Fangzhuo happened to get the ball, but when he looked up, his teammates were still in the big penalty area, and he decided to rush with the ball himself!
A long run!
He dribbled across the halfway line from the back and Liverpool had almost no one to press.
But Sissoko is coming, and this guy's physical strength seems to be endless.
Come on!
Dong Fangzhuo also saw him, but his speed did not improve.
He was deliberately waiting.
Sissoko's steps were big and urgent, and he was about to rush to Dong Fangzhuo's side.
Dong Fangzhuo suddenly increased his speed, which instantly made Sissoko a little collapsed.
But he still calmly stretched out his hand and grabbed the corner of Dong Fangzhuo's clothes!
In the end, Sissoko chose the easiest way and directly pulled down Dong Fangzhuo.
Beep –
The referee did not hesitate to pull out the yellow card.
Two yellows turn into one red!
The pesky Sissoko was finally sent off with a red card.
Deafening cheers erupted immediately from the stands.
"Fuck off!"
"Get out of Old Trafford!"
Manchester United fans can finally do whatever they want to abuse Sissoko, and being sent off early with a red card is the result they are most happy to see.
"Oh, this time Liverpool is really finished."
Liverpool are missing Sissoko, and the pressure on Manchester United's midfield has instantly become much less.
Manchester United then continued their attacks on Liverpool.
In the 83rd minute, Ryan Giggs crossed from a free kick from the right, and Rooney's header from 12 yards down the middle went wide of the far corner. A minute later, Cristiano Ronaldo crossed from the right, Dong Fangzhuo turned and fired a left-footed shot from the edge of the middle of the penalty area that was confiscated by Reina.
"Is it going to be a shooting show?"
Rooney then fired a right-footed shot from 30 yards down the right and the ball deflected off again.
The game finally went to stoppage time and Liverpool didn't want to give up, but they had to defend in the box.
Manchester United overwhelmed them.
In the 92nd minute, Rooney broke through and was brought down by Gerrard, Manchester United got the opportunity to take a set-piece in front, and Vidic came up again, this time still forming a central partner with Dong Fangzhuo.
Giggs crossed a free kick from the left, Vidic bumped into Carragher, flew up, and headed the ball from 10 yards in the middle, Reyna flew to the ball, did not let the ball in, but Dong Fangzhuo almost rushed to the goal line, and with a light touch, Reina could no longer prevent the ball from going into the net.
“gooooal!”
“3:1。”
"21 years old, 21 goals!"
"Fack!"
"Fack!"
Right next to the referee, Gerrard burst into foul language.
Yellow!
……
In the end, Manchester United won 3-1 at home.
As soon as the referee's whistle sounded, the fans immediately unfurled banners like magic and sang along with the music.
“happy birthday to you.”
“happy birthday to you.”
“happy……”
