Chapter 385: The Battle of Old Trafford Only Fights Back
readx;
Two proudly stabbed thumbs pointing at the back of his jersey!
Then, jumping 360 degrees, he showed the English letters printed on the back of the purple jersey to every fan watching the game at Old Trafford and in front of the TV at that moment!
The purple figure wants to tell the world who scored the goal - Alan Smith!!
It's the same Alan Smith who was chased away here by you like a wild dog with a broken leg!
His white hair was illuminated by the bright light from the ceiling of Old Trafford at the Theatre of Dreams, and at this moment it seemed to be draped in a hazy gold, and Alan Smith stood in the Red Devils United penalty area with such a big thorn...... Cheering Michael Owen and Lucas Podolski jumped high on Smith's back, while behind them were the rest of the Magpies' teammates who came galloping with excited, slightly hideous faces...... We, goal-scored!
Less than 180 seconds into the game, Newcastle's first wave of attack from away unstoppably destroyed the back line of the menacing Red Devils Manchester United!
England's No. 1 centre-back Rio Ferdinand, Serbia captain Nemanja Vidic, and the old and strong Dutch goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar...... The best and strongest backline of the Red Devils in recent years, carefully prepared by godfather Alex Ferguson, collapsed in front of the heavy bombardment of a man who had been abandoned by them in the past!
The Old Trafford fans fell into a brief silence!
Two years ago, they were cheering on this white-haired bad boy! At that time, Alan Smith, who was still a boy, was not the best dribbling in the Red Devils, not the fastest runner, nor the sharpest passer, nor the most goalscorer...... However, he is definitely the one who fights the most actively, fights the most heroically, runs the most, and tackles the most fiercely!
Almost every Manchester United fan remembers Alan Smith making four consecutive tackles in three seconds for Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard!
I remember the bloody scene of fighting for a pass that was not a great chance, and I remember the scene of him running around the field after storming the Arsenal gate!
I remember the scene when he bravely rushed up alone in order to block the shot of the Norwegian heavy gunner Lyser, but finally fell to the ground!
At that time, the applause and tears of Old Trafford used to ring and flow for the boy...... At that time, although Alan Smith may not always be able to bring victory to Manchester United, the spirit and blood surname of never looking back and not flinching on the green field made any fan who has watched Alan Smith even if it is only one game can't help but like him!
At that time, he was still a boy!
At that time, neither he nor any of them could have imagined that two years later, they would meet as enemies at the Theater of Dreams!
After two years, when Alan Smith returned to Old Trafford, which was rated a five-star stadium by UEFA, the boy had become a man, although his white hair was still ...... However, the beard has grown on the young face of the past, and even the vicissitudes of life have reached the point of being a thing!
He returned in the most manly way, and when he sharpened his sword, he was stained with the blood of his old boss when he came out of the sheath, and it made those who betrayed and abandoned him feel pain!
Bloody pain!
But, in any case, for the sake of that happy time in the past, boos should not be the main theme of the Dream Theater at this moment!
So, not to let go of any of the Reds fans who stormed United fans at Old Trafford, opted for silence amid Alan Smith's grim celebrations...... There was even a little bit of applause!
…… Three minutes later. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
With a crisp whistle from referee Howard Webb, the game continued!
The battle on the green field of the Dream Theater is still fierce!
“…… Crazy Lee's games can always bring us unexpected surprises, and Newcastle's combination just now was really wonderful, Alan Smith went from running to getting rid of Fletcher to shooting, giving us a glimpse of his incredible growth under Crazy Lee's tutelage over the past two years! ”
“…… This shot reminded me of the long-range strike that Alan Smith scored for Germany in the last second of extra time in the European Championship final! ”
“…… Statistically, in the last 20 games, Smith in the midfield position, who was identified by Crazy Lee as a midfielder, has hit an average of one high-quality long-range shot every 30 minutes, and the success rate has reached an incredible 50 per cent...... That's a crazy number, and Alan Smith can be called the king of long-range shots in the big five leagues!! ”
“…… In addition to Alan Smith, German striker Lucas Podolski, who has been conservatively questioned and criticized since arriving in England, also broke through the flanks, and the spectacular scene of breaking through Gary Neville recreated his peak level with the national team...... The insane Lee has continued to have his start to the fore, and if Podolski returns to the top, it will be a great deal for Newcastle......
Seist, a loyal follower of the madman Lee and a sports celebrity on England's national television, was touting the goal in the audience.
Sitting next to him was England's No. 1 [Lee Black] Mike Donald, who works for BBC television.
Putting together two football match commentators with completely opposite positions and commentators, [Ying Jian] Sester and [Li Hei] Mike Donald, is the latest football match commentary project cooperated by England National Television and BBC Television!
Because after two previous accidental collaborations, the technical department found that this commentary combination increased the ratings by at least 1 percentage point compared to Sester and Gary Lineker!
And at this moment, after the Newcastle goal of the madman Lee, [Li Hei] Mike Donald could only temporarily give up the microphone to the "winner" Seist, and he was humorously silent!
…… After the restart, the Red Devils, enraged by Newcastle's goal, launched a furious counterattack!
Sidelines.
Ferguson didn't have the heart to chew gum anymore, but wore a black short trench coat with a symbol that he didn't know how long he could have been wearing, and stood on the sidelines with a cold face!
If the old man still felt a little guilty about abandoning Alan Smith back then, then the long-range shot just now had made the little guilt that Ferguson had left in his heart disappear...... Allow me to be sorry for you, not for you to be sorry for me!
This is the law of the pitch of the godfather of the Red Devils, and it is also an iron rule!
What's more, the close goal just now not only disrupted Manchester United's pre-match deployment for almost half a month, but also put Manchester United in a passive position...... What made Ferguson even more unbearable was the arrogant expression of the black figure in front of the opponent's coach's box.
Juan Mata's goal at Old Trafford last season made Ferguson lose face, and this time the strong Lafayette will not allow the same thing to happen after 90 minutes!
Moreover, Ferguson has a deeper consideration!
If Ferguson felt a faint threat when the madman Lee took charge of Newcastle last season, then Ferguson has had to admit from this season: Newcastle now has the strength to wrestle with the Red Devils Manchester United, which he has worked hard for more than 20 years!
Another uncertaintie that will disrupt the Red Devils' Premier League bucket has emerged!
Just like Arsene Wenger and Jose Mourinho did after the emergence of Arsene Wenger and Jose Mourinho, the Red Devils, who finally beat the Portuguese madman in the past two seasons to win two consecutive titles, had to usher in a league opponent who could be equal to them again!
This is something that Ferguson cannot tolerate!
So, in any case, the battle at Old Trafford must be won in a flashy way, dealing a blow to Newcastle's restlessness as they attempt to challenge the Premier League supremacy...... Not only do we want to let the world know that only I, Ferguson, am the one who can defeat the madman Lee, but I also want to destroy the self-confidence of this growing terrible teammate in infancy!!
I, Alex Ferguson, am the one who really rules the Premier League!
At this moment, Ferguson's fighting spirit even surpassed the Red Devils on the field, and after defeating the Frenchman Arsene Wenger and the Portuguese José Mourinho, a Chinese worthy of his challenge aroused the fighting spirit of Lord Buddha!
…… As if feeling the boss's monstrous fighting intent, the Red Devils' offensive is becoming more and more fierce!
After all, this is their home stadium, and the red crowd of more than 60,000 fans in the stands is not for nothing, and the Red Devils' number one superstar Cristiano Ronaldo blasted the goal with his trademark heavy artillery in the midst of the cheers that covered the sky...... Bang!
The loud bang shook 72,219 hearts!
In a hurry, Ji Wen, the door god of the Magpie Army, could only use his fists to block the football with a rotating and scorching breath, and it was no longer within Ji Wen's ability to block where to block!
Because C-Ronaldo's shooting power is so great, that after blocking the first shot, Given's whole person has involuntarily smashed back several steps, and his two feet have completely retreated into the goal!
This kind of shooting power, Given's only experienced at the feet of Alan Smith!
Luckily for him, the ball that Given's block fell to teammate rookie Moussa Sissoko!
The Frenchman, who was excluded from the starting line-up by assistant coach Alan Shearer for Mamadou Sako's poor training attitude, picked up his feet and cleared the ball without even thinking about it...... Bang!
Like a monkey with its ass burned, the ball flew high into the night sky with a thud and eventually landed on the top floor of the North Stand at Old Trafford...... Aha-haha-ha
In the 15th minute of the game, the tense atmosphere was finally slightly relieved by Sissoko's exaggerated clearance, and the fans, players and managers, almost everyone's nerves, which were about to burst, finally got a respite...... However, after the respite, something even more grim came for Newcastle!
C-Ronaldo's shot was just an appetizer and the Red Devils' real threat came in the face when French full-back Patrice Evra took a throw-in from the left.
Ryan Giggs, who stepped forward to pick up, leaned on Juan Mata, who was close to the defender, and used an unconventional thigh bouncing ball with his back to his back, and then turned around with a sudden knee knock past Mata...... This unbelievably wonderful action immediately caused the cheers in the stands to boil like an avalanche!
With Juan Mata cleverly past Juan Mata, Ryan Giggs was without a Newcastle player in front of him, so the Welsh wings picked up speed and sprinted towards the Magpies' half...... Although the aging Ryan Giggs does not have the absolute speed of riding thousands of miles without leaving a trace, his rich experience and increasingly proficient ball control skills enable him to always make the most reasonable moves at the most critical moments...... This time, for example, Makelele, the Magpies' back-up from the middle of the pitch, was shaken off by Giggs in the high-speed run with a jump ball that he saw...... Makelele of [tackle] 20 in the FM2009 system loses in front of Giggs in the double 19 of [dribbling] and [passing]!
Next, Giggs is left with only Italian full-back David Thornton, who has already made a name for himself in the Premier League!
If you get past Thornton, the Magpies' defenses will be completely destroyed by him!
In this moment, an old man and a young man rushed towards each other!
The sprint duel between the tip of the needle and the wheat man...... Begin!!!
At the moment when the two were about to meet, the young David Thornton did not try to stop the Welsh veteran who had long been famous in the sea in the way allowed by the rules of the court, and in the face of Ryan Giggs, who had already started to speed into the sprint stage, the gap in [current strength] made Thornton understand that he could not stop the opponent's breakthrough through conventional actions such as tackles, slotting or blocking...... So, Thornton used a move that made Old Trafford boo-bang - bang!
At the moment when the two were about to make head-on contact, the Italian teenager turned slightly sideways and slammed his shoulder into Giggs's chest!
It doesn't matter if football passes, as long as Ryan Giggs is kept, then Manchester United's attack is over!
It's a bit of a shameless defensive move, but it's practical!
Unfortunately, Thornton's wishful thinking didn't completely succeed!
Because in this moment, Giggs's experience and golf quotient came into play - the Welsh veteran faced the dangerous moves of his strong juniors, and in the moment when he could not afford to move, he did not retreat, folded his arms in front of his chest, and then used the momentum of running to collide with each other!
Bang!
A loud bang!
Staggered figures!
