Chapter 1,035 Sweep and Win the Championship

A goal can change the situation on the field. After the score was equalized, the initiative immediately returned to Manchester United's hands from Blackpool.

A draw is meaningless for Blackpool. One point cannot guarantee that they will stay in the Premier League. They must win. It is a matter of life and death. Time is running out. Blackpool cannot help but attack.

A draw would guarantee Manchester United the league title. After experiencing the accident of being scored two goals by Blackpool, Manchester United did not dare to be careless and went all out to fight in the midfield, not easily giving Blackpool a chance to hit their own penalty area.

In the 65th minute of the game, Charlie Adam and Campbell continued to cooperate in front of the penalty area and then dumped the ball to the left side of the penalty area. Evra, who was returning to defense, did not clear the ball cleanly and the ball was passed to the feet of Blackpool forward Varney who came on as a substitute.

Fletcher saw that Varney was about to take a shot, and flew from the side to intercept. Fletcher's movement was half a beat slow, the ball went out, and Varney was tripped to the ground.

The referee glanced at Fletcher and felt that the ball had been kicked out, so he gave him a verbal warning.

Fletcher's move shocked Ferguson. Fletcher had already received a yellow card before, and he would be kicked out if he received another yellow card.

Ferguson didn't dare to let Fletcher stay on the court anymore. He immediately called Carrick and Park Ji-sung, who had been warming up for a long time, to come over. After explaining what should be paid attention to on the court, he replaced Fletcher and Nani.

Ferguson's intentions for this substitution are obvious. One is to eliminate Fletcher's hidden dangers, and the other is to strengthen the defense on the wing.

Originally, Blackpool was a little wary of Nani and Rooney's counterattacks on the two wings when attacking. These two people have extremely strong personal abilities. Scholes and Gao Xiaodong passed the ball with a long kick, leaving too few people behind. Unable to prevent it, now that Nani has gone down, Blackpool's attack from the right has become even bolder.

Obviously, Blackpool underestimated the strength of Manchester United's substitutes. As the world's top giants, the strength of Manchester United's substitutes is also the absolute main force in Blackpool.

Blackpool attacked Manchester United on the left, and Manchester United soon seized the opportunity to counterattack. Gao Xiaodong stole the ball and got rid of it, passing Park Ji-sung diagonally. Park Ji-sung took advantage of Blackpool's full-back assist and did not return, and made a high-speed pass.

After Park Ji-sung went down, he found that no one from Blackpool came to cover the defense. He did not pass the ball and then passed into the penalty area.

At this time, Blackpool's players had to come over and intercept to prevent Park Ji-sung from hitting the goal directly.

Park Ji-sung is very experienced. After seeing Blackpool come over to defend, the ribs of the penalty area were left empty, and Gao Xiaodong was quickly inserting into the ribs.

He immediately passed the ball back to Gao Xiaodong in an inverted triangle.

Park Ji-sung's pass was just right. Gao Xiaodong rushed over and pushed the ball with the arch of his foot to the lower left corner of the goal.

Gao Xiaodong's shot hit the goalkeeper in the opposite direction. Goalkeeper Kilkes could not react in time and the ball flew from his feet into the net.

3:2

In the 75th minute, Gao Xiaodong scored twice to help Manchester United take the lead.

The moment the goal was scored, the entire stadium was like a volcano erupting. Almost all the fans jumped to their feet. They waved their arms excitedly and shouted Gao Xiaodong's name toward the stadium.

Before the game, almost everyone thought that this was a game without any suspense. No one believed that Blackpool could cause any trouble to Manchester United. Only after they were almost reversed by Blackpool in the game did Manchester United fans feel the value of Gao Xiaodong's goal. Love Gao Xiaodong even more.

Even Glazer's eldest son Ephraim had to admit at this time that although this Chinese man was a bit greedy, his ability was really outstanding.

Manchester United's on-site commentator said happily: "There should be no suspense in the game. Blackpool will not be able to overtake again, and Manchester United will not make two mistakes in one game. Now Manchester United fans can wait for the award ceremony with peace of mind!"

After Gao Xiaodong scored the second goal, Ferguson finally felt relieved. There was no suspense in the game. He glanced at the bench, called Giggs over, and asked Giggs to prepare and make his debut.

Giggs is a meritorious veteran of Manchester United and a close disciple of Ferguson. He may retire next season. Ferguson hopes to give him a chance to play in the championship game.

There are still many players on the bench who are eager to play, but because they were reversed by Blackpool in the middle, Ferguson had to make substitutions according to the situation on the field. Now he can only give this opportunity to Giggs.

Five minutes later, Giggs came on and replaced Valencia, and Manchester United continued to control the situation on the field.

At the 80th minute, Blackpool was still trailing 2:3. According to this score, Blackpool will be relegated this season.

Blackpool's head coach Allardyce has changed three players in a row, two forwards and one midfielder, but he still has no way to deal with Manchester United's defense. After Giggs came on, Allardyce got worried and waved. Let the players press forward and fight for the last ten minutes.

At this moment, Blackpool already has four forwards on the field, and two full-backs have also moved forward. The entire formation has become 244, which can be said to be a desperate effort regardless of defense.

However, fighting hard also requires strength. There is already a gap in strength between Blackpool and Manchester United. Now they give up defense and attack. That is not fighting hard, but losing their lives.

In the 83rd minute of the game, a cross from Blackpool was deflected by Vidic. Gao Xiaodong stopped the ball with his chest. Blackpool players rushed Gao Xiaodong from behind, trying to knock Gao Xiaodong down, but Gao Xiaodong was very strong and did not Fall to the ground.

Gao Xiaodong staggered, but still took the ball and passed it to Carrick, who then pushed it to Scholes. Scholes hit a long pass behind the defender to break Blackpool's high press.

Rooney cut in at high speed from behind the defender, grabbed the ball, and headed for Blackpool's bottom line along the wing.

There were only two defensive players behind Blackpool, while Manchester United had Berbatov and Park Ji-sung in front. Manchester United was three on two in the frontcourt, and it was too late for Blackpool's other players to run back desperately at this time.

After Rooney rushed to the baseline, he still had time to glance at the center, and then swept the ball towards the penalty area.

Blackpool defender Evatt did not dare to let the ball pass. He flew up and tried to shovel the ball out of the baseline, but the ball was too fast and Evatt shoveled the ball directly towards his own goal.

Blackpool goalkeeper Kilkes had no idea that his teammate was an "undercover". He was unable to react and could only watch the ball go into the net.

4:2

Manchester United took advantage of the opponent's free kick to expand the score again.

At this moment, the suspense of victory has completely disappeared. Manchester United's championship is already certain. As long as the game is over, Manchester United can win the 19th top league championship in their history, officially surpassing Liverpool and becoming the greatest team in England.

At this time, even if Real Madrid and Barcelona came to play, it was impossible to reverse Manchester United. However, Blackpool had lost their minds in order to avoid relegation. After conceding the goal, they continued to attack through half-time.

Blackpool passed the half, and Manchester United's counterattack now is faster and more comfortable because there is no offside.

In the 88th minute of the game, Ferdinand made a clearance in the penalty area. Gao Xiaodong passed the ball with a header. Scholes kicked the ball past half-time. Rooney quickly stepped in, grabbed the ball and scored with a lob, making the score 5 again. :2.

In stoppage time, Blackpool still did not give up the attack, and Berbatov seized the opportunity to score another goal, and finally locked the score to 6:2. Manchester United swept Blackpool at home and won this season's Premier League championship.
