Ice Shooter of the Green Field

Shortly after this goal, Ferguson made the last substitution adjustment. Shinji Kagawa came on and replaced Cleverley.

The old Sir Alex looks like he is going to fight!

Shinji Kagawa rushed onto the field. Ferguson arranged for him to be a central midfielder. He needed to devote his energy to help defend. When this kid came on the field, he also specially ran to Zize and winked at him. Zize smiled: " Let’s have a drink together after the game?”

Kagawa Shinji also smiled, but did not answer directly.

After Shinji Kagawa came on the field, there was only one serious defensive player left in Manchester United's midfield, which was Carrick. Shinji Kagawa, Ashley Young, Valencia and Welbeck were all in higher positions. Carrick took the After receiving the ball, it is basically a long pass to the forwards on both sides or in the penalty area.

Hiddink also made the last substitution adjustment shortly after. The draw was completely acceptable for Chelsea. Hiddink decided to strengthen the defense. He replaced Oscar and Mikel came on as a substitute.

Mikel's main job is to help the central defender look at the space left by them. If there is a mistake like David Luiz did before, he can immediately go up to cover the defense. Previously, Chelsea did not have a serious midfielder, so this gave Weir Baker's chance to face David Luiz directly.

It should be said that this is also Ferguson's trick. Throughout the whole game, Ferguson's Manchester United generally controlled the rhythm of the game. One of Chelsea's goals was a direct counterattack with a long pass, and the other was a free kick, neither of which was Hiddink's. Arranged before the game, Hiddink's original plan was to use slowness to control fastness and use ball control to consume the opponent.

But Ferguson is different. He is constantly changing during the game, always looking for weaknesses in Hiddink's tactics, and then trying to exploit them. There is no defensive midfielder in the starting lineup, so Ferguson arranges people to make a fuss in this position. David Luiz uses The long pass directly threatened the defense, so Ferguson arranged for Rooney to press. In the second half, Welbeck immediately switched to Welbeck, who had a stronger defensive ability, to restrict the opponent. Both were successful.

The only thing that didn't satisfy Ferguson was that Chelsea had already scored goals before the adjustment. For coaches, what they had to look at was the trend, and they were ready to make adjustments when they found something was wrong, but unfortunately Ferguson encountered Zize.

If there is something wrong, it means we have lost the ball!

But I have to continue to adjust, otherwise this guy will definitely advance more and more!

Ferguson just made the final adjustment. When he replaced Shinji Kagawa, he told Kagawa that Chelsea would definitely add a defensive midfielder to increase protection in front of the central defender. Shinji Kagawa appeared to be adding a central midfielder when he came on the field. In fact, The role is still the midfielder.

He and Welbeck will increase offensive manpower in Chelsea's midfield and backcourt at the same time. Manchester United's formation is actually a double midfielder, with Welbeck focusing on confrontation and pressure, and Shinji Kagawa echoing Van Persie through his passing and interspersed movement.

This is Ferguson's last ditch effort!

Because when Ferguson said he wanted to retire, it wasn't just psychological warfare, it was true.

This is a decision that has been considered for more than a year. This season is likely to be Alex Ferguson's last season. He is over 70 years old and has already looked down on it a lot. After last season, Manchester City overtook in stoppage time. After winning the championship, Ferguson wanted to leave with dignity after winning a Premier League championship, but this season's Chelsea made Ferguson feel that it was difficult for Manchester United to regain the championship in these two seasons, and his body was indeed not as good as before.

One cannot but accept old age!

Therefore, in this game, Ferguson made bold adjustments and carried out the offense to the end!

But the risk is very high. Ferguson knows it very well. There are only three people in the midfield and backfield: Carrick, Jones and Ferdinand. Chelsea have arranged for Schürrle and Zize to counterattack in front. Facing Zize, to be honest, the three of them are not sure. Defensive enough, let alone Schurrle.

But Ferguson won again!

The goal this time was Shinji Kagawa!

Ferguson's second substitution adjustment once again became the turning point of the game. Shinji Kagawa reversed the score with a light kick in the open space in the Chelsea penalty area!

"Shinji Kagawa! Who would have thought that the person who would save Manchester United at this time would be Shinji Kagawa, who had a good start but a low performance this season! What's interesting is that Shinji Kagawa was also Zize's former teammate during his time in Dortmund. These are two old friends from Dortmund. The showdown between generals is also the pinnacle showdown in the Premier League!"

The Old Trafford stadium erupted into overwhelming cheers. Many people feel that Manchester United fans are relatively reserved in the largest stadium in the top league. The atmosphere felt at Old Trafford is not as good as that of other giants such as Anfield and WeChat. Stadiums like Steffalen and Bernabeu feel so lively.

But today, the whole world saw the passion and unrestrained spirit of Old Trafford!

Ferguson stood up from his seat and was so excited that he almost swallowed all the gum in his stomach. Fortunately, before standing up, Ferguson held back and spit out the gum in the trash can. Then he stood up with his fists raised high and ran all the way. The coach celebrates the goal.

The Manchester United coaching bench and the bench are already going crazy. The game looks like it will be over soon. It is now eighty minutes!

Chelsea will suffer their first defeat of the season!

To be precise, it was the first defeat in the league.

Hiddink put his hands in his pockets and looked at the field, and then looked at the jubilation in the coaching bench opposite. Hiddink also knew in his heart that the old Scottish man with the red nose opposite him was indeed superior to him in skills. Now Chelsea can be as good as it is now. In terms of results, Hiddink may have achieved less than expected, and Zize is the real reason for all this.

Just like now, Chelsea is lagging behind, and the game is about to end in ten minutes. The most threatening attack comes from Zize, and it is Zize who attracts the most defense. After scoring, Manchester United almost defends Zize in a rogue way. , but they also have the Sword of Damocles above their heads, but they dare not foul!

Manchester United have already seen Zize's free kicks. When defending, they were very careful and did not dare to make any big moves against Zize. At this time, Manchester United was also nervous and did not dare to make any mistakes.

Even Shinji Kagawa, his former teammate Zize, was merciless. If there was a chance to compete, Shinji Kagawa would not be merciful. Although he had no chance at Manchester United, he still wanted to win the Premier League championship with the team.

Soon the opportunity for a head-on confrontation came.

Now Manchester United basically all retreated. Zice, who couldn't get the ball in front, retreated, but intercepted the ball from Welbeck's feet, and just turned around and ran into Shinji Kagawa.

Kagawa still has some experience facing teammates who have played together for three years. He stood in front of Qi Ce. In his impression, Qi Ce is not good at direct breakthroughs. He is similar to Ashley Young. He can only rely on speed to break through. As long as Qi Ce is stuck in a position, he will usually not go it alone and will pass the ball.

Shinji Kagawa thought that as long as he stood still and prevented Qi Ce from passing by, the defense would be successful, but he didn't expect that Qi Ce didn't pass the ball!

Breakthrough with the ball!

Shinji Kagawa didn't even react, and was passed by Qi Ce with a change of direction. When did this guy's dribbling become so good?

The breakthrough just now really dazzled Shinji Kagawa. He always felt that Qi Ce would lose it in the next second, but the football was not carried too far by Qi Ce and passed Shinji Kagawa in an instant.

Then there's Carrick.

Carrick did not immediately realize that Shinji Kagawa had been breached. There was a gap between him and Ferdinand, and that was where Zize was aiming.

But Qi Ce didn't intend to break through. If the opponent touches the ball, Qi Ce's attack will be interrupted. However, Qi Ce's sprint here is just a feint shot, waiting for one of the two of them to come up!

Carrick and Ferdinand are both veterans over thirty years old, but at this moment, they were also deceived by the young man Zize. The moment Carrick stepped forward to steal the ball, Zize suddenly changed direction!

Manchester United's defense was in chaos. Raphael on the wing, Ferdinand and Carrick in the middle, Shinji Kagawa who was retreating, and Jones, the other central defender who was responsible for defending Zize, were all crowded together in an instant. This may be a manifestation of excessive fighting spirit!

Everyone wanted to go all out, but they made a mistake. Zize attracted the defense of six players, but he still did not lose the ball. Then he picked up the ball and the football passed the messy Manchester United defense and fell to the back point!

Xuerle, who came in at high speed, jumped out and headed the ball into the goal with his head!

Ferguson looked at the field, watching a group of Manchester United players running together with Zize and then allowing Zize to attract almost all the firepower and send out assists. Chelsea equalized the score, and his heart was full of helplessness.

Whether it was a big gamble, on-the-spot tactical adjustments, pre-match preparations, psychological warfare, encouraging players and fans, it seemed that the whole world was on their side, but in the end, they still failed to get the desired results.

After doing everything and still not getting what you want, it's... football, damn it!
