The game was a big success, but the situation was not good.

In fact, Li Shiguang had made a lot of preparations before the game, and made a big change in the lineup compared with the previous game. The main focus was to stabilize the defense first!

Ferguson's main focus this season is the two wingers, especially the entire right side. Ronaldo's ability and impact are strong, and Evra's joining in the winter has made him even more powerful. In the past month's games, the two have cooperated more and more on the right side. Li Shiguang has to guard against this.

So for the two wingers starting today, he did not choose Ribery and Bale, who have stronger attacking attributes, but let Milner and Camoranesi start. The purpose is to let these two wingers who are harder on the defensive end help Lahm and Maicon in the backcourt.

In the defensive midfielder position, Li Shiguang did not let Modric start, but sent Mascherano and Alonso to strengthen the midfield's sweeping ability.

But even though Li Shiguang thought he had made sufficient preparations, he did not expect that Leeds United would lose the ball in less than 1 minute after the start, and the worst thing was that not only did they lose the ball, but they were also forced to use the first substitution.

The assist was from Giggs on the left, but the goal was not even scored by a Manchester United player, but by Mascherano's own goal.

And the process of scoring was also extremely simple. After Manchester United kicked off, they made several simple passes in the midfield, but found that they could not pass the ball in, so Scholes passed the ball to Giggs on the left. After Giggs took two steps, he probably kicked the ball into the Leeds United penalty area with a blind attitude. Mascherano, who was returning to defense, did not notice that Schmeichel had already attacked while running.

As a result, Mascherano not only headed the ball into his own goal without any defense, but also injured Schmeichel's wrist.

After the team doctor came on the field to take a look, he made a substitution gesture to Li Shiguang. In desperation, Li Shiguang had to hold his forehead to replace Schmeichel with Neuer. Neuer, who turned 20 at the end of this month, also ushered in the first official game of his life.

But this is not over yet. In the 11th minute of the game, Ronaldo directly overtook Lahm in an unreasonable straight line on the right, and then forced Mascherano to cut inside in front of him. The shot on the penalty area line was saved by Neuer, but the first point was grabbed by Rooney who was ambushing in the penalty area. An easy supplementary shot broke through the gate of Leeds United again. Less than 15 minutes into the game, Manchester United was already leading 2:0.

"Oh, what did I see? Ten minutes ago, I thought it was a wonderful game with equal strength, but now, I seem to have seen a one-sided massacre!" Lineker exclaimed. "The game has just started for 11 minutes, and Manchester United already has a two-goal lead. Sir Ferguson, are you going to ruin Leeds United?"

Lineker's teasing commentary caused the Manchester United fans at the scene to burst into laughter, and the Leeds United fans sitting below the commentary turned their heads and gave him all kinds of wonderful family greetings.

"Ah! This start is even more desperate than the last time at Old Trafford, and now Lee has used up a substitution quota. Although I don't want to say this, it seems that this game is really difficult for Leeds United~" Eddie Gray, who was sitting in the studio today, explained in a low voice.

Afterwards, the camera captured the figures of the two coaches. Li Shiguang, who stood on the sidelines with a serious face and folded his arms, formed a sharp contrast with Ferguson, who was sitting on the coach's bench and chewing gum with a smile!

Li Shiguang also heard what Lineker said. He didn't even need to open the system. He could see the low morale of the Leeds United players from the atmosphere on the field, but he knew very well that as the head coach of the team, he must not lose in terms of temperament!

So he took a deep breath, and before the game started again, he shouted to the field: "Boys! Raise your heads! The ball is round, believe in yourself, there are still 80 minutes to play! Run, focus on the game, don't fucking think about the damn goal! OK?"

Perhaps Li Shiguang's encouragement gave the players some motivation, or perhaps Manchester United slowed down its offensive rhythm after taking a two-goal lead. Gradually, Leeds United also moved back some on the field and gradually began to have some threatening attacks.

"Wow! This is a

A wonderful shot from Xabi Alonso, but Van der Sar was very focused and held the ball tightly in his arms! "

"Cristiano Ronaldo's counterattack, poor Lahm, was once again unreasonably broken through by Ronaldo, but Kompany came up in time and broke the ball out of the sideline"

"Here it comes again, ah!!! It's a pity that Falcao's shot was slightly off the goal. During this period, Leeds United's offensive was very fierce. It can be seen that they were not completely defeated by the bad start. They are trying hard to get a goal back! "

Lineker's voice resounded throughout the stadium.

Watching their home team gradually regain some form, the Leeds United fans in the stands also spared no effort to cheer for their beloved team!

In a short period of time, the two sides went back and forth, and Leeds United fought back hard, trying to make up for a little disadvantage before the end of the first half!

But many times, ideas are full and reality is skinny.

Just when Leeds United pressed forward and bombarded, Manchester United's sharp counterattack gave them another painful blow, oh , no, it was two hits.

In the 39th minute, Giggs broke through on the left and knocked the ball horizontally. Rooney attracted most of Leeds United's defense at the front point, but he was very alert and missed it. Ronaldo, who followed up, completed a shot in the penalty area, 3:0.

Just five minutes after this goal, Li Shiguang was already thinking about how to adjust the tactics in the halftime break to make up for the disadvantage in the second half. Scholes received Saha's header outside the penalty area and scored a world wave that broke the world!

"Oh my God!" Lineker's shout was on the verge of breaking his voice. "I take back what I said before. I didn't just seem to see it, but I really saw a massacre! The first half was not over yet, and Manchester United was already leading 4:0. In fact, in my opinion, they can already think about what poses to put when they hold the trophy!"

"Bang! "The mineral water bottle in front of him was kicked far away by Li Shiguang.

Simeone behind him didn't dare to breathe, and he didn't know why it happened. Leeds United had obviously started to improve, but when they turned around, they were blasted into the abyss by Manchester United again!
