Episode [261]: Think of the Red Army Liverpool!

The dressing room of the Red Devils Manchester United team was extremely silent.

The players of the Manchester United team sat quietly in their seats with their heads lowered. Some players even had towels on their heads, covering their entire heads.

Although this was not the Champions League final between Liverpool and AC Milan, they fell behind 3-0 at halftime. But the Manchester United players were in a very low mood, as if they had lost.

Alex Ferguson watched all this quietly and remained silent.

As the moments passed, the Manchester United players seemed to be performing a dummy challenge, motionless, just like the sculptures erected to commemorate this game many years later.

Alex Ferguson felt very sad when he saw the Manchester United people like this!

He has rarely seen Manchester United players with such a decadent side. It can be seen that the pressure on them in this game is very, very high!

It took a while before Alex Ferguson made a sound and coughed: "Ahem!"

Some Manchester United players raised their heads, while others continued to lower their heads.

Alex Ferguson said: "I'm sorry, everyone! I, Alex Ferguson, have to take full responsibility for this game to be like this!"

The Manchester United players looked up and stared at Alex Ferguson with doubts in their eyes.

Alex Ferguson didn't care and continued: "In this game, there was a problem with my tactics, and it was also because I underestimated Crazy Loya that you fell into the opponent's trap. If not, we would have If you won’t concede the first goal, you won’t remain passive and concede the second goal!”

The players of Manchester United were shocked. To be honest, although there were reasons for this, they still thought it was all their fault. In fact, at the beginning of the first half, they had already had many opportunities, but they failed to score. This is because they did not play well.

At the same time, they themselves knew very well that they also underestimated the Leeds United people!

Some players from Manchester United immediately said: "No, Jazz! This has nothing to do with you. It is our media who played a good game and we did not seize the opportunity. But Jazz, don't worry, we will definitely win Leeds in the second half." The joint team will win the championship trophy!”

Other Manchester United players all echoed and expressed their determination!

Alex Ferguson nodded slightly and said: "I won't give you any blood here, and I won't say too many inspiring words. I will only tell you one thing. Four years ago, Liverpool was in the Champions League. They trailed 0-3 at halftime, but in the end they won the Champions League. I hope you are not worse than the Liverpool people..."

The Manchester United players nodded firmly with extremely serious expressions.

Looking at the reaction of the Manchester United players, Alex Ferguson was very excited, just to have such momentum. Who are we, the Red Devils and Manchester United, afraid of?

Alex Ferguson immediately said: "We played like this in the second half, Franck Ribery..."

Alex Ferguson was arranging tactics for the second half of the game for the Red Devils and Manchester United players. It was obvious that they were preparing to stir up trouble in the second half of the game.

The Manchester United locker room was in full swing, and everyone was discussing good strategies.

On the other side, the atmosphere in the Leeds United dressing room was even more serious than that in the Manchester United dressing room.

Yes, Leeds United's players are not getting carried away.

The Leeds United players felt that the pressure was really great. Although they were now leading 2-0, they still did not dare to play Songxi at all, because their opponent, the Red Devils Manchester United, was really too strong.

If Leeds United were a little more relaxed, this game would be a different story.

Zhong Cheng is very satisfied with the attitude of Leeds United players.

Zhong Cheng said: "We played well in the first half, but that is already in the past. We don't have to think about it now. What we have to think about now is the second half, you know?"

The Leeds United players nodded in understanding.

Zhong Cheng continued: "In the finals of the UEFA Champions League, there were not many comebacks, but this does not mean there are not. Liverpool once completed a comeback even when trailing 3-0 and won the UEFA Champions League. championship. So, it doesn’t matter that we are leading 2-0 now. I tightened up in the second half of the game, you know?”

The Leeds United players could only nod, saying what was in their hearts.

Zhong Cheng also said: "The Red Devils and Manchester United people will definitely not give up, so the second half of the game will only be more intense than the first half. You must be mentally prepared!"

The Leeds United players looked very serious, they had already thought of this.

The Red Devils and Manchester United have never been easy to deal with, and the Leeds United players are ready to fight the Manchester United people to death.

Zhong Cheng also said: "In the second half of the game, our tactic was defensive counterattack. This is the tactic we are most familiar with. I hope you can perform well. As long as you show your 100% state and strength, I believe we can win. of."

The Leeds United players said in unison: "Got it, boss!"

The mental state of the Leeds United players is actually very good, and Zhong Cheng is quite satisfied. But Zhong Cheng was afraid that his players would be overwhelmed by the pressure in the second half. In that case, Leeds United would collapse.

Zhong Cheng has repeatedly reminded the Leeds United players that they must pay attention to defense and play seriously!

To be honest, Zhong Cheng is feeling a lot of pressure now. This UEFA Champions League final is indeed different from other games. Zhong Cheng immediately asked a psychological counselor to provide psychological counseling to the Leeds United players to make them more stable in the second half.

The atmosphere of this game is already very, very tense.

At this moment, the on-site staff came to remind the Leeds United players to hurry up and get out, as the second half of the game was about to begin.

Zhong Cheng immediately said: "Okay, everyone, relax, this is an ordinary game, don't be too nervous, play hard, you must be the champion. Let's go, don't let them wait too long!"

The Leeds United players nodded in understanding.

The Leeds United players then immediately turned around and rushed out like a swarm, down the tunnel and onto the pitch.

When Zhong Cheng and the others came out, they found that the Manchester United players were already standing on the court, waiting for the Leeds United players to appear.

Zhong Cheng took a careful look at the state of the Manchester United players. His eyes tightened instantly. The Manchester United players were in a very high spirit. This game looked very difficult!

Zhong Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly, realizing that the second half of the game would be very difficult.

As soon as the Leeds United players entered the stadium, the Red Devils and Manchester United made substitution adjustments. Alex Ferguson couldn't stand Berbatov anymore and replaced him directly with Carlos Tevez.

Seeing this substitution, Zhong Cheng frowned slightly.

Although Berbatov is not particularly active in running on the court, if he stays on the court, Manchester United's offensive tactics will be richer. This will replace Berbatov, which requires courage!

Berbatov was also very unhappy when he was replaced, very uncomfortable!

When he came off the field, Berbatov gave Carlos Tevez a perfunctory high-five, then ignored Alex Ferguson and walked directly back to the bench.

Returning to the bench, Berbatov directly covered his head with a towel, isolating himself from the world!

Alex Ferguson didn't even look at Berbatov. His eyes were fixed on the court, paying attention to the second half of the game.

At this moment, referee Busaka blew the whistle to start the second half.

At the beginning of the second half, the Red Devils and Manchester United launched a rapid attack. They wanted to take advantage of Leeds United's defense before it gained a firm foothold and give Leeds United a fatal blow.

With a bang, Yoan Gourcuff in the center made a long diagonal pass, passing the football to the feet of Frank Ribery who was advancing from the wing. Franck Ribery did not force the ball after receiving the ball, but suddenly passed the football back, and the football rolled to the feet of full-back Chimbonda.

The two were once teammates of the French national team, and they also worked together for a long time at Leeds United. There is a very tacit understanding between the two. The line formed by him and Frank Ribery is a very important offensive method for the Red Devils Manchester United this season. This is also a major reason why Frank Ribery has performed very well this season.

Chimbanda immediately dribbled the ball forward at high speed after receiving the ball!

Leeds United's defensive players did not press too hard and allowed him to get through the half. However, after the half, it was very difficult for Chimbanda to carry the ball forward. After many attempts, he Only choose to pass back.

Leeds United said that the pressure was too strong, and the intensity was so high that Chimbanda could hardly hold on.

The football rolled to the feet of centre-back Rio Ferdinand, who immediately passed the football diagonally, and the football rolled to the feet of Nani who was retreating on the other side.

Nani did not stop the ball, but followed the trend and moved the ball towards the midfield. Full-back Gary Neville immediately accelerated and chased the ball. Chimbanda on the other side immediately retreated quickly to keep the defense line intact.

Gary Neville pushed forward crazily from the wing, but was quickly blocked and unable to break through.

Gary Neville immediately pulled the ball and turned around, preparing to pass back. But at this moment, Gary Neville suddenly turned around again and sent a long diagonal pass over the top, looking behind Lichtsteiner on the wing.

Franck Ribery rushed through like a gust of wind.

Lichtsteiner's reaction was already very quick. He turned around quickly and was almost on the same line as Frank Ribery. At first, his speed was blown away by Frank Ribery.

Franck Ribery immediately overtook him and caught up with the ball.

Lichtsteiner didn't even reach out to grab Frank Ribery, but Frank Ribery caught up with the football. The Manchester United fans at the scene immediately cheered crazily, and everyone was very, very excited.

"Opportunity! Here comes the opportunity for the Red Devils and Manchester United!" The local sports commentator in Manchester was so excited that he almost jumped up.

Leeds United centre-back David Luiz immediately pounced to intercept Franck Ribery.

Frank Ribery did not fight with David Luiz, but gently passed the football back in an inverted triangle. The football rolled a little to the corner of the penalty area, and Chimbanda followed.

"Danger!" Eddie Gray immediately exclaimed.

Chimbanda immediately moved his legs to pretend to shoot, but gently moved the football sideways.

The football rolled out of a gap in an instant. Yoann Gourcuff rushed up quickly and kicked the football hard!

"Interception, he has the ability to shoot from a long distance!" Eddie Reese roared crazily.

Unfortunately, the Leeds United players were still a little slow. When Seydou Keita rushed over, Yoan Gourcuff had already hit the football with a hard kick.

With a bang, the football immediately flew out like a cannonball, quickly hitting the upper right corner of the Leeds United goal.

Zhong Zheng immediately jumped sideways and stretched out his hands straightly, but he failed to intercept the football.

The ball flew quickly into the Leeds United goal.
