The second half of the game was not as dull as the first half.
As soon as Clattenburg's whistle sounded.
The two teams immediately entered the state and started to attack each other according to the instructions of their respective coaches in the locker room!
47th minute.
Rodriguez made a diagonal pass on the right rib, Adriano received the ball in the penalty area and passed it back, Modric followed up and shot, but under the interference of Carrick, the ball flew out of the baseline.
Two minutes later.
Manchester United launched an attack from the wing.
Ronaldo and Scholes cooperated with the wall, passed Mascherano and rushed to the penalty area along the wing.
Facing Sun Jihai's defense, Ronaldo did not find a particularly good opportunity to cut in, and finally wanted to force overtaking. As a result, like the last time the two played against each other, Sun Jihai blocked him with his body when he broke through, and the ball was protected out of the baseline.
51st minute, Leeds United launched another attack.
It was Rodriguez again. This time he pulled to the right side, and sent a cross-court overhead ball to the left side of Manchester United's penalty area.
Kolarov, who rushed over, kicked the ball sideways, and the ball rolled along the grass towards Adriano who was waiting in front of Manchester United's goal!
Adriano was about to turn around and shoot.
But this time, Manchester United's two central defenders reacted very quickly and cooperated very well.
Vidic, who had been sticking to Adriano's back, pressed Adriano tightly with his thighs, and at the same time, his hands hidden behind his back also tightly pulled Adriano's jersey, with the purpose of preventing Adriano from turning around immediately.
Then Ferdinand next to him quickly came over.
Taking advantage of the second when Adriano hesitated after receiving the pass, he kicked the ball out of the baseline!
Manchester United mainly attacked the wing.
Leeds United combined the center and the wing.
As the two sides fought back and forth for the ball, inevitably, some fouls that were almost non-existent in the first half gradually popped up, the gunpowder smell became stronger and stronger, people and horses were thrown on the field, and the players of both sides clashed with each other many times.
Fortunately, the "draw master" Clattenburg has excellent control ability and can always control the emotions of the players on both sides at the most critical moment, which allows the fluency of the game to continue.
····
Li Shiguang knew very well that Sun Jihai would definitely not be able to keep an eye on Ronaldo. This is a personal strength gap, and even if he has a system, he can't help Sun Jihai make up for it.
But Sun Jihai's diligence on the back line can at least make Ronaldo play less comfortable than in the first half.
This is indeed the case.
After Sun Jihai came on the court, Ronaldo was indeed not as active as in the first half, but the Portuguese, who is in great form this season, can still find opportunities in strict defense.
Fifty-ninth minute.
Ronaldo received the pass on the left again. Facing Sun Jihai, Ronaldo lowered his right shoulder and pushed the ball to the right with his left foot, pretending to cut inwards to the right.
Sun Jihai and Mascherano, who was helping to defend behind Sun Jihai, reacted quickly, and the defensive focus of both of them shifted with Ronaldo.
The ball rolled horizontally for almost half a meter. At this time, Ronaldo's right shoulder also sank to the extreme, and it seemed that he would use all his strength to rush to the middle in the next second.
Seeing this action.
Sun Jihai no longer doubted him, and decisively stretched out his right leg to block Ronaldo's route. At the same time, Mascherano also accelerated and rushed over here.
But what was surprising was that.
Ronaldo did not choose to cut inwards.
The raised left leg passed over the ball, and after landing, the toes cleverly pushed in the opposite direction, the center of gravity of the body was recovered, and "whoosh", he rushed over from the left!
"Cristiano Ronaldo! Nice fake move, he completed a solo breakthrough!"
With Jon's shout, Ronaldo, who was free from his restraints, quickly rushed to the penalty area with the ball.
This was indeed too fast and too unexpected.
Silva didn't come to defend until Ronaldo was about to enter the penalty area. Seeing that he was about to catch up, the Brazilian central defender made up his mind and fell to the ground to tackle, thinking that even if he got a card, he had to stop Ronaldo outside the penalty area!
But perhaps because he was too anxious, Silva, who was still in the penalty area when he fell to the ground, forgot an important thing, that is, he forgot to hide his right hand raised in the air behind his back.
Ronaldo noticed this keenly.
The moment he judged that he was likely to be tackled by Silva.
Ronaldo made a prompt decision and kicked the ball.
The next second.
The football hit Silva's arm raised in the air firmly, and bounced out of the penalty area.
A shrill whistle sounded.
Clattenburg was standing on the penalty area line, and he could see clearly where the ball hit and changed its flight trajectory.
So the players on the fieldWhen everyone turned their eyes to the "Master of Draw".
Clattenburg did not hesitate, and directly extended his right hand and pointed to the penalty spot.
"What, penalty... penalty!?" Lineker was a little confused when he saw Clattenburg's gesture.
Jon's tone was very firm: "Yes, Gary, let alone Clattenburg, even I can see it clearly sitting here, it is indeed a penalty! Cristiano's shot... or pass hit Thiago Silva's arm, and Silva was in the penalty area at that time."
Under the leadership of Kompany, Leeds United players surrounded him at the first time, trying to use the ball hitting the hand to make Clattenburg change the penalty.
But Clattenburg was very determined and insisted on his penalty, and also showed a yellow card to Silva, who was standing behind the crowd and was a little annoyed.
On the sidelines.
Li Shiguang's face was a little gloomy.
Simeone had long lost control of his emotions and ran to the fourth official and yelled.
"Is Clattenburg blind? I can see clearly from such a distance that the ball hit his hand! Thiago was just completing his tackle. Can this be considered a penalty?"
The fourth official was very clear-headed. He took two steps back and kept a relatively safe distance from Simeone before speaking: "Diego, the referee communicated with the referee team immediately. He saw clearly that Silva raised his arm too high, which completely affected the flight path of the football, so this is undoubtedly a penalty!"
Simeone was relentless and took a step forward, wanting to argue a few more words.
But the fourth official was very stern. He pinched the headset and looked at Simeone: "Diego, pay attention to your attitude. This penalty cannot be changed. If you don't want to be sent off the court, I advise you to return to your position immediately!"
Simeone has always been a soft-hearted person.
Hearing such words, he must have been unable to resist.
Just as he was about to roll up his sleeves and rush forward, Li Shiguang's voice came from behind.
"Come back, Diego,"
Looking back at Li Shiguang who had walked behind him.
Simeone suppressed his anger, glared at the fourth official, and followed Li Shiguang back to the Leeds United bench...
