"Yellow card, the referee on duty showed a yellow card to Petit who committed a foul in the tackle!" Andy Gray screamed with some excitement, which was clearly the funniest episode of the dull game.

"Judging from the slow motion, Petit's tackle did have a clear intention to hurt, especially since it happened after Vieira almost tripped over, which has to be guessed that Petit was trying to help his teammates take revenge."

Martin Taylor on the side also nodded and said: "Petit's French midfielder's style of play is not very clean, before Vieira spat on the opponent's player Ruddock in the game with West Ham United, was suspended by the FA for 6 games, fined 45,000 pounds, Petit has repeatedly expressed his protest against this penalty, thinking that this is the FA's unfair handling, prejudice against French players, and even made a storm to leave England, if it weren't for Arsenal's intervention, I'm afraid the FA will even punish Petit. ”

"It's really unnecessary, the referee is the enforcer on the field, even if he does have a misjudgment, but the players must respect and accept, a veteran player like Petit really shouldn't be so uncalm." Andy Gray was also a little sorry.

For a revenge, carrying a yellow card on his body is equivalent to planting a mine, and no one knows when it will be detonated.

"Judging from the process of this game, the new Manchester United must have consciously wanted to provoke the opponent, Paulsen has fought with Vieira many times, but he didn't expect Vieira to be angry, but provoked a Petit." Martin Taylor laughed.

After a hiccup just now, the game continued.

Although Wenger frequently signaled the players on the field on the sidelines to calm down, slow down the tempo, and give the new Manchester United space to attack, it is clear that the situation on the field makes the Arsenal players a little unable to retreat, because the new Manchester United has always maintained a compact three lines, cowering in their own half, regardless of whether Arsenal enters or not, anyway, they just don't show their heads.

It was in this tactic that Arsenal had no idea what to do that wore out the last ten minutes of the first half.

…………

"The referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the first half of the two sides exchanged blanks, this game is completely different from Arsenal's previous style of play, very dull and ugly, if the second half is still according to the situation of the first half, the two sides may not be able to separate the winner until next week's replay!"

Martin Taylor, who was on the side, shook his head in disagreement.

'I don't think so, Arsenal don't have that much time, I'm sure they'd prefer to settle the game and I'm sure Arsene Wenger will make the right changes in the second half, such as making some changes on the flanks, to revive the two wings that have been the most active on the wings this season.'

"What about the new Manchester United? Do you think the new Manchester United will be able to hold once Arsenal play on both wings? ”

"I'm afraid it's hard, but Bruce must have worked on it, and he must know how to deal with it."

"So, do you think the second half is the crucial 45 minutes of the game for the new Manchester United?"

"That's right, the game has just started now!" Martin Taylor nodded.

…………

…………

"Guys, the game has just begun!" In the dressing room at the new Manchester United, Bruce shares Martin Taylor's ideas.

The players gasped for breath one by one, although the new Manchester United were pressed to defend in their own half in the first half, but all the players were required to be highly concentrated, constantly pressing, and playing to the death, which was a very physically demanding task.

'In the second half, Arsenal will definitely make the appropriate changes, they will try to find ways to open up the wings, especially their attack on the right, so Ivica, Patrice, you will have a heavier task in the second half than in the first half.

"Don't worry, sir, we're not going to give the Arsenal guys a chance!" Evra gritted her teeth.

"That's right, sir!" Olich also clenched his fists, and his tongue kept coming out as he spoke, a characteristic of his panting, which is said to be especially capable of running.

"Ribeiro, Michael, you have to take care of the left side and the right side in the second half, so you have a lot of work to do!"

Juninho Jr. immediately nodded in agreement, while Essien was a little hesitant and seemed to be a little worried, but soon agreed.

"Guys, we played really well in the first half, we managed to freeze the attack of the Premier League giants Arsenal, but it was not enough, what we have to do is completely freeze them for 90 minutes and not give them any chances, so we have to continue to work hard in the second half, believe me, guys, as long as we survive their attack, we have a chance to win!"

…………

"Before the second half, let's take a look at the statistics of the first half, Arsenal had 19 shots on goal, but 14 of them were from outside the box, and the new Manchester United did not have a single shot on goal, and the possession rate of both sides was 25% and 75%, which objectively reflected the difference in strength between the two sides in the first half!"

"But the score is still 0:0!" Martin Taylor laughed.

Andy Gray also smiled wryly, "Yes, the new Manchester United's iron bucket tactics completely restrained Arsenal, but as you just said, Wenger will definitely make adjustments to this situation, let's take a look at the running distance of the new Manchester United players." ”

"Ah, Martin, guess who are the top three players with the most runs in the whole game?" Andy Gray was a little surprised.

"To be honest, I'm not very familiar with this team, but from the information I have, I guess it's Essien, Paulsen and Olich, all three of whom are the best runners in the new Manchester United team, and Patrice Evra is also very good at running, but in this game he basically confined himself to the area of his own penalty area and didn't run much."

"You guessed two, Martin." Andy Gray sold a shut-off.

"Which two?" Martin Taylor, however, was intrigued.

"Essien and Olich, they are really the top three with the most runs on the field, Olic is first, Essien is third."

"And who's the second?"

Andy Gray said with a smile: "I was also surprised that the second most running person would be Brazilian midfielder Juninho Jr. ”

"Is that him?" Martin Taylor was a little surprised.

'That's right, but on top of that, he made four tackles, made 28 of his 34 passes, didn't threaten him, but he did well, or at least you could see that he was working hard.

"But, in my mind, he doesn't seem to be that good at running?" Martin Taylor smiled wryly.

"I think so too," Andy Gray nodded as he saw Juninho Jr. stealing Vieira in the replay, "Tsk, is this still the Brazilian midfielder who is considered skinny?" ”

"But it also makes me believe that the new Manchester United are going to defend to the end!"

Even Juninho, who is the least runner in Ping, ran second on the team, but what about the others?

"Okay, Martin, the second half of the game is about to start, the players from both sides of the game have returned to the pitch one after another, and we can see that the Arsenal side has really made a change, Parlour has come off the field and replaced it with Sweden's fast Marc Jungberg."

When Martin Taylor heard this, he immediately said: "This is a tactical substitution made by Wenger to strengthen the attack on the right side, Ljungberg can form a surprise attack on the side, echoing Henry on the left, so that it is bound to thin the defensive pressure on Henry, and once the defensive pressure is weakened, with the personal ability of Henry and Ljungberg, it may be difficult for the new Manchester United to limit these two players." ”

"The situation is a little bad, Xiao Yu!" David Beckham in the stands clearly thinks the same thing as Martin Taylor.

Xiao Yu also frowned, he has been a team owner for more than a year, and after watching the ball for so many years, he can still see the effect of such a superficial substitution.

This is called the tree to die and the man to live!

"Is this Ljungberg powerful?" Eva was a little strange when she saw Xiao Yu's appearance.

Beckham shook his head with a wry smile, "Things on the football field are not so simple, replacing a Ljungberg is likely to change the whole situation, not only the right side, but also the left and middle sides may be completely liberated!" ”

yes, Steve, do you have a strategy for coping?

Xiao Yu looked at Bruce, who was standing outside the coach's bench under the stands, and Wenger was sitting upright in the coach's box, obviously very sure of his substitution.

In fact, Martin Taylor, David Beckham and Arsene Wenger were all right, and Ljungberg immediately activated Arsenal's attack on the right as soon as he came on.

Ljungberg is different from Parlour in that he can run but is not very fast and quick to dribble on the wing, but Ljungberg is a good winger, and he is also a very well-rounded player, and after winning the ball, he can cross or cut inside to shoot, which is his forte.

With Ljungberg on the right flank, Thierry Henry on the left feeling relieved and more active, plus behind him was an equally fast and attacking Ashley Cole.

At the start of the second half, Arsenal launched a couple of dangerous attacks from the right, and Ljungberg, who had just been replaced, was full of energy and was very active, and as soon as he came on, he burst into the new Manchester United's left side of the defence.

Patrice Evra was no worse than Ljungberg, but he was a tough loser in terms of experience and struggled to deal with it, but fortunately Olic and Essien often returned to the left to help defend, which barely kept Arsenal at bay on the right.

Vieira and Petit, who controlled Arsenal's attacking tempo, were smart enough to move Ljungberg's return pass to the left flank when everyone thought Arsenal were going to play on the right flank, and handed it to Ashley Cole.

Ashley Cole took the ball and dribbled into the new Manchester United half, Henry cut into the heart and made a clever one-two with Ashley Cole, Ashley Cole went down to the bottom line.

Kanu and Bergkamp, who received in the middle, rushed desperately to the penalty area, Abidal and Distin stared at them, while Stan on the right was in front of Ashley Cole, occupying a position and preventing him from entering the box.

But just when everyone thought Ashley Cole was going to cross, the latter made another unexpected pass to Henry on the edge of the box.

Paulson stepped forward, Henry skillfully pulled out a gap, and with a gentle push, a black figure next to him roared, pulling out his leg and shooting a long shot!
