Volume 3 The Myth of the Gunslinger Chapter 272 The Battle of Tianwang Mountain (Medium)

In the face of Li Huan's self-confidence or arrogant challenge, Ferdinand didn't dare to respond, because with the current momentum of Arsenal. QuAnBeN。

The players are fighting a war of words in the media, fans are also fighting on the Internet forum, not only in the British Isles, the whole world is watching this big battle between Manchester United and Arsenal, and the **** company in Europe also opened the **** for this game, it can be said that in this week, the whole world football is revolving around the Red Devils and the Gunners.

The FA also took this game very seriously, sending the best referee in the UK, Howard. Webber, a police officer by training, first started refereeing in the Rotherham Regional League in 1989 and now has 21 years of experience in law enforcement, reaching the pinnacle of his refereeing career in 2010, officiating in key Premier League matches, European Cup finals and World Cup finals. It already has the meaning of the world's first outpost.

Manchester United have won all at home this season, but in the face of Arsenal, who have won all 16 games, the lord is still not confident enough, and in the pre-match press conference, the lord once again solemnly talked about his views on this game.

'It's a game for us and we have to win because we have to make up for the points we have lost in front of us, we have to make sure we have the right to fight for the league title and not lose hope at the halfway point, so we have to give it our all.

Arsenal have injury problems, when you don't have your best players, it's usually difficult to get the best results, Arsenal will have one or two key players missing, but as long as Li Huan is there, it will be a tough game, not only in these two years, but in the last 15 years, the games between our two clubs have been very competitive, they are both playing at high speed, these games are always the kind of emotions that are high.

I'm sure we're going to win in the end, we're not just playing for ourselves, we're fighting for the Premier League as a whole, and all the fans except the Gunners fans are behind us to beat them, and we're playing at home and Old Trafford will give the players a lot of confidence and pride. ”

In addition, as Arsene Wenger is facing a scandal, Ferguson once again called on fans not to make personal attacks on Wenger, "I think other clubs have the same view on criticising the manager as I do, and there should be enough respect in the game not to ruin the reputation of others. ”

However, Arsenal did not recognize and thank the lord for his appeal, assistant coach Rice said: "Originally, this matter (scandal) was almost gone, and Sir Alex Ferguson mentioned this matter at this time, it was like reminding his fans to use this to attack Arsèna." Coach Arsene Wenger. ”

The professor was generous and didn't mention it in his pre-match press conference, of course, maybe he was afraid that after the kick, things would get out of hand again.

Unlike the high-profile and confident disciples, he taught his team to decompress at the press conference, "Against Manchester United, it's a battle of life and death, for us, it's just a league game, that's it, we are seven points ahead, it's very important, we can win this game, we can lose, we can draw, because no team can win the title at the halfway, even if we win all at the halfway, I think you have to be patient if you want to win anything." ”

At the same time, the professor also put pressure on the referee at the press conference, because he was worried that the FA would always balance the game, after all, after Arsenal won, the Premier League title will basically lose suspense, which is not good for the Premier League as a whole.

'It's definitely going to be different at Old Trafford, the 70,000 people are going to put a lot of psychological pressure on the referee, but I'm sure Webber will handle it well and he'll make it fair.'

The hot-tempered Ferguson was very upset with the professor's petty family, and he was very straightforward to satirize his old rival when the reporter asked questions next. The Professor's Hawkeye usually turns a blind eye to surprises in his team's favor during the game, and after the game, he will say that he will wait until he re-watches the footage. But if it's an unfavourable decision against Arsenal, Arsene Wenger will immediately know the opponent's name, shirt number, birthday, blood type, favorite mistake and head size, and send this information to the FA so quickly that you don't even have time to read a monosyllabic name. ”

In order to give all fans the opportunity to watch this world-renowned match, the big match between Arsenal and Manchester United was scheduled for 9 o'clock in the evening. Not only did Sky Sports launch a 3D live stream, but it also sent its own famous commentator, Alain? Perry and the famous referee Georgia.

Fans have been waiting for this game for a long time, and Old Trafford has long been sold out, and it is said that it has broken the record of 76,004 fans at Old Trafford.

The prediction of the assistant coach of Arsenal before the game was confirmed, and the fans of Manchester United, under the influence of jealousy and hatred, did not take Sir Alex Ferguson's warning to heart, and they still put up a banner on the pitch that said "Welcome to Old Trafford", although the fans did not write that the professor was a pedophile, but before the start of the game, the fans were abusing the professor with songs, and the Arsenal fans also fought back with songs and insulted Ferguson. The stands became gunpowder from the start.

The game has not yet started, and in the studio hall of TV5, the commentators have already begun to warm up for the game.

"In the Premier League, Ferguson and Arsene Wenger are definitely old rivals. The two sides have met 42 times in their Premier League coaching careers, with Ferdinand having a slight advantage with 17 wins, 11 draws and 14 defeats. In any case, the showdown between Manchester United and Arsenal will stir up excitement because it is not only a showdown between two Premier League giants, but also a battle between two meritorious coaches......" Duan Xuandao said.

Tao Wei added: "In all the 209 meetings in the history of the two sides, Manchester United has the upper hand with 85 wins, 46 draws and 78 losses, but since Li Huan joined last season, the Gunners have a clear advantage in terms of record, and now Arsenal is at the top of the table with 16 consecutive wins in 16 rounds, and Manchester United is second in 16 rounds...... Recently, Arsenal is still injured, the No. 1 goalkeeper and the No. 2 goalkeeper are injured, which is their biggest weakness, but as long as Li Huan is not injured, Arsenal is like an invincible giant ship moving towards the goal normally......"

At this time, the players of both sides have come out of the tunnel of the players, and Manchester United's starting 11 are: 1-Van der Sar/21-Rafael, 5-Ferdinand, 15-Vidic, 3-Evra/24-Fletcher, 16-Carrick, 8-Anderson/17-Nani, 10-Rooney, 13-Park Ji-sung

Arsenal's starting 11 are: 53-Szczesny/3-Sagna, 13-Li Huan, 6-Koscielny, 22-Klich/17-Alexander Song, 19-Wilshere/14-Walcott, 8-Nasri, 23-Arshavin/33-Chamak

United were at full play in this game, but the veteran Ryan Giggs was put on the bench, and the midfield was full of experienced and driven players.

Ferguson is planning to fight for control of the midfield with Arsenal at Old Trafford, last season's two defensive counterattacks did not achieve good results, this season Jazz is ready to change the style of play, Manchester United's midfield control is not bad, the impact is stronger, when Arsenal lacks Fabregas, it is a good move to fight for the midfield, which not only curbs most of Arsenal's attack, but also reduces Arsenal's breakthrough in the frontcourt.

Of course, the premise of such a lineup is that Ferguson judged that Li Huan will appear in the position of central defender, in the recent game, Li Huan has been playing central defender, and now Vermaelen is still unable to play, Ferguson thinks that the professor who has always disliked change will definitely use Li Huan to play central defender, Ferguson has a very thorough psychological understanding of Wenger, and Li Huan really appeared in the position of central defender.

The professor and Ferguson have been fighting for more than ten years, and they are not ignorant of the mind of this old opponent, due to the absence of Fabregas, in this game, in order to seek stability, Li Huan still appeared in the middle of the defense, but on the two wings he discharged Arshavin and Walcoat, two wingers with good speed and technology, and the middle sent Chamak, who had excellent ability to grab points, also offset Li Huan's defects of not being able to appear on the side to a certain extent.

The two old opponents fought in formation, and each guessed some of the opponent's intentions, and made targeted tactical arrangements, but the effect still needs to be tested in actual combat.

With the whistle of referee Webb, the 210th match between Arsenal and Manchester United officially kicked off.

Arsenal, who kicked off first, were not in a hurry to attack, they had a seven-point advantage, and they could play with Manchester United with a relaxed mind, Chamack and Walcourt passed the ball in the center circle, the ball gradually played back, and Yin* Manchester United attacked.

The ball passed to Li Huan's feet, when Li Huan passed the ball to Sagna again, Manchester United's fast pressing had arrived, Sania wanted to pass back, the middle pass line had been blocked by Manchester United's attacking players, Sagna didn't want to open his feet, so he had to pass the ball to goalkeeper Szczesny.

Polish goalkeeper Szczesny is 20 years old and 239 days old, his appearance broke the record for the youngest appearance of a Arsenal Premier League goalkeeper, and the professor praised him as the second Yashin, but Szczesny received a return pass from Sagna and drove it directly to Nani's feet, Nani saw that Rooney had stepped forward and immediately went straight through.

After Rooney received the ball, he immediately formed a single knife, and even Li Huan didn't have time to turn around at such a speed.

There was a surprise commotion in the stands, and the Red Devils fans were already waiting for Rooney to score, but at this time the linesman's flag was raised, and it turned out that Rooney was offside when he received the ball, and the footage showed that Rooney was only offside by one shoulder.
