Midfielder

Chapter 442

A stupid foul, maybe this was everyone's first reaction after seeing the referee take out the red card.

Manchester United fans who saw the replay footage in front of the big screen and TV roared angrily at such a foul, "Damn foul! Damn Sylvester! What on earth was that idiot thinking!"

This is also a question that Ferguson wants to ask his old subordinate. The French full-back has been with him for almost six years. In the adventure of three defenders, Ferguson can choose him to start, which shows his trust in him, but Sylvester's way of repaying this trust is really direct.

Usually this guy often has short circuits on the court, but this Frenchman's physical fitness and running ability are indeed better than those of the full-backs of the current Manchester United team, especially since he is more experienced.

So Ferguson can put this guy into the starting lineup when he risks using a back three.

After all, Sylvester is a veteran who has been working hard in the Premier League for several years. In the first 30 minutes of the first half, his defense on the wing was always in place and did not allow Chelsea to take advantage of the wing.

But such a seemingly stable guy suddenly became the focus of the field!

Originally, Keane and Park Ji-sung's tackles were already in place. Even if they were a little slower, they could still interfere with Lin Yi's shot. Who knows why Sylvester appeared at that moment.

This guy's appearance was not just a simple interception. He flew towards Lin Yi and shoveled him without any consideration. His movements were extremely large, and damn, this guy was still shoveling people from behind!

Did he want to scare Lin Yi in this way? Hell, such a tackle would only result in a foul!

Now it is estimated that many Manchester United fans have turned into roaring emperors. They should even wonder if Sylvester is an undercover agent sent by Chelsea. This is simply committing suicide!

His stupidity not only earned him a red card, but also directly ruined Manchester United's previous good situation!

The only thing Ferguson is lucky about now is that the place where this guy committed the foul was not in the penalty area. Otherwise, he would definitely see a penalty kick and a red card. For such malicious injury, he might be subject to additional penalties.

But that is something to consider after the game. Now I just want that guy to come over, and then he will strangle that idiot with his own hands. The originally advantageous situation was ruined by Sylvester's foul!

When Ferguson saw the referee showing the red card, he even cursed loudly on the sidelines without any concealment. As for whether there were TV cameras aimed at him at this time, the old man couldn't care so much. If he didn't curse, , he was really afraid that he would be suffocated by this evil fire and his brain blood vessels would burst!

Although the fourth official on the sidelines warned Ferguson in a low voice, all he got in return was the fierce look in the old Scottish man's eyes. At this time, even if you sent him to the stands, he would not restrain himself.

Sylvester's foul not only earned him a red card, he almost ignited a physical conflict between the players on both sides. Drogba, who has always had a good relationship with Lin Yi, almost raised his fist.

"You fucking bastard! I want you to know how powerful my fists are!" Drogba's roar was very fierce, and such a big guy rushed over directly, which indeed looked very scary.

If Ferdinand hadn't pulled him, the African elephant's fist might have fallen on Sylvester's face, but his move directly ignited the confrontation between the players on both sides.

"Hell, don't fucking pull me, let go of your hand, or I'll let you know how powerful I am!"

"Damn, this is our home court, what do you want to do?" The old boy Keane has never been afraid of this situation. Now the players on both sides are almost ready to take action, but the abuse from both sides The sound has overwhelmed everything, and even the referee's attempts to dissuade him in the middle have not had much effect. Looking at this situation, as long as someone makes the first move, it will immediately turn into a group fight.

Even the commentator exclaimed, "The players on both sides are very excited now. Sylvester has become the executioner in the eyes of the opponent. Chelsea players are eager to kill him directly."

The fiery atmosphere of the game has long made it impossible for players on both sides to calm down. Coupled with the boos and shouts from the fans in the surrounding stands, it seems that this moment is adding fuel to the fire, and a group fight is about to break out.

Not only the players, but also the fans in the stands had already started throwing things at each other. If there were no security guards at the venue, these guys would have started a war, but this kind of air raids continued.

However, this conflict did not escalate. Lampard and Gerrard grabbed the Chelsea players. They are now more concerned about whether Lin Yi's injury is a serious problem rather than trying to beat the opponent.

Ferdinand, Van der Sar and others also grabbed Keane and the hot-tempered Lu Xiaopang. Coupled with the referee's verbal warning, this imminent group fight finally did not break out on the field.

Unlike the excitement of the players on both sides, Mourinho needs to know Lin Yi's injury early.

Brito and Faria were the first to run to the scene of the incident. Although Mourinho was still standing on the sidelines, it could be seen from his anxious expression that he would rather lose the game than lose it. Lin Yi, that damned tackle from behind hit his calf firmly. If it was a serious injury, it would most likely put the kid in an ambulance. Mourinho really didn't want that to happen. .

If killing is not illegal, Mourinho can guarantee that he will set up a mortar and bombard Sylvester directly. That idiot-like guy is simply a butcher who kicked the ball!

Mourinho swore that even if the game was over, he would protest for additional punishment.

If the butcher was not suspended for a few more games, it would be a shame for Lin Yi to roll on the grass.

Lin Yi couldn't feel what happened around him. He just heard a lot of noisy sounds and the pain from his calf. The kick was really strong, but he had to be thankful that he saw the flying tackle with his peripheral vision at the moment of the last kick.

At the moment when Sylvester lit up his studs, Lin Yi subconsciously retracted his strength, and the center of gravity of his whole body also changed slightly. Although he was thrown on the grass so fiercely by his opponent, Lin Yi knew in his heart that his calf was not broken, but this kind of injury did make him a little scared.

If he hadn't retracted his strength at that time, he would probably have been taken away by an ambulance. This kind of flying tackle from behind had caused countless talented guys to fall directly on the green field.

If he hadn't retracted his supporting leg, it might have broken. The impact was really great, otherwise he wouldn't have been lying on the grass without fighting. It was really painful.

When Faria and Brito came over, the two guys looked anxious, which was the first expression Lin Yi saw when he opened his eyes, but Lin Yi smiled at the corners of his mouth, which finally put the two guys' hearts at ease. This little bastard who couldn't be kicked to death was really lucky.

Seeing Faria's gesture, Mourinho's heart finally returned to its normal beating frequency.

"It's okay, just a scratch. The opponent's shoe studs scratched a few cuts on my calf. I just need to stop the bleeding." Although Faria said so, looking at Lin Yi's kicked socks, he could imagine how fierce Sylvester's flying tackle from behind was.

"Damn it, kid! Can't you just dodge? You can't be so lucky every time!"

Faced with Faria's reproach, Lin Yi could only grin and laugh shamelessly, "If I really dodged, not only would the chance of shooting be ruined, but how could that guy be sent off with a red card?"

"You lunatic!" Brito could only say that this kid was a lunatic now. This kind of risky fight, probably only this kid can do it. If it were someone else, they would have dodged far away.

After all, this is a bet with his own calf. If he is not careful, he will have to stay in bed for at least half a year.

"The game is to win, but there is no need to use your body as bait." Brito could only say this to Lin Yi now. He couldn't guarantee whether this kid would take such risks in the future.

"I didn't think about it, but that guy rushed over too fast and I really couldn't avoid him. Instead of letting him destroy this attack, I might as well give it a try. I just wanted a free kick at that time. Who knew that this guy had his studs on and hadn't planned to retract his feet, but now the result is not bad."

Looking at Lin Yi's heartless expression, Brito was speechless. This is a standard madman on the court. Like Mourinho, he might give up everything for victory.

When seeing that Lin Yi's injury was no longer a problem after a simple treatment, not only Mourinho and Brito were relieved, but Lampard and Chelsea's players were also relieved.

Although not everyone is brothers with Lin Yi, the boy's desperate spirit and fierce desire for victory on the court are the soul of the entire Chelsea team. If he is not there, the entire Chelsea team will feel that something is missing, which is an invisible power.

Lin Yi is not the captain of Chelsea, and he is even the youngest in the team, but he has already become the brain of the team and even the one who commands everything.

Even Terry joked, "My roar as the captain may not be as effective as Lin Yi's wave of his hand. As long as he calls, these animals are like a group of wild beasts!"

There were even rumors that Mourinho was going to change the captain, and Lin Yi would naturally be the successor, but Chelsea finally denied the rumor. For Mourinho, Lin Yi may become a spiritual totem on the court, but off the court, Terry is more suitable for this role.

Lin Yi is a standard commander, but he is not a qualified diplomat. When facing the media, he always seems a little too self-protective and rarely takes the initiative to communicate.

With this kind of personality, he is more than enough to command the team, but he is still a little short of being a captain who uses diplomatic rhetoric properly. At least Mourinho believes that Lin Yi does not have the ability to coordinate everything.

But at the competitive level, Lin Yi has undoubtedly become the absolute core and the only brain of Chelsea.

As long as he is there, all troubles will be solved, which is the real thought in the hearts of many players.

Seeing that Lin Yi is fine, these guys are relieved, but Chelsea is happy, but Ferguson is a little sad, because his three defenders are now lame.

Sylvester ruined Manchester United's good situation with his stupidity, and Ferguson was very angry.

When the Frenchman came off the field with his head lowered, he could still hear Ferguson's curses.

He could only walk back to the locker room without raising his head. As for how the old man would punish him during the intermission, Sylvester was also a little frightened.

For him, the game was over, and he paid the price of the red card. He was indeed unwilling. At that time, he just wanted to stop Lin Yi, but he didn't expect that kid to fight so hard.

When Sylvester walked off the stage, he saw Lin Yi who was preparing to appear again. He could only mutter in a low voice, "That kid is really a madman. He goes crazy regardless of the cost."

Whether Lin Yi is a madman or not, I guess the old Sir Alex has no intention to study it anymore. Anyway, he is going crazy now. It was originally a very risky three-back formation, but now it is good, there is one less one.

And now Manchester United no longer has the advantage of having a small number of people. After such a struggle, the courageous spirit that was able to suppress the opponent just now is probably almost gone. It seems that it is even more difficult to contain Chelsea now, and He also had to remove an offensive player and replace him with a defender.

Who to replace? I guess Sir Alex was worried about this issue the moment the referee showed the red card. Replace with a forward? That will reduce the pressure on Chelsea's defense, but removing a midfielder will probably revive the opponent's offense. Moreover, the little lunatic did not end up injured. Maybe this is another reason why Ferguson hates Sylvester. If you want a red card, you have to get that kid off the field, right? That's good. Now that you're down, that kid is still alive and kicking.

The midfield confrontation, which originally had no advantage, would probably fall if one more person was removed.

However, the referee could not give Ferguson that long to think. After careful consideration, Ferguson could only remove Ruud van Nistelrooy from the field and replace him with Neville, who had just returned from injury, hoping that he could defend Manchester United. The team's winger, although the Dutchman was in very good shape this game.

But at this juncture, Ferguson can only hope that those in the frontcourt will use running to make up for the lack of offensive power. After all, compared with the weakening of the forward line, if the midfielder loses ground, he will be in big trouble.

But such a substitution was just a stopgap measure in Ferguson's opinion, but for Van Nistelrooy, who originally wanted to perform well at home, it was a very serious injury. At least in his own opinion, he Even working so hard on offense did not gain Ferguson's trust.

This can be regarded as a foreshadowing of the outbreak of conflicts. Anyway, from the moment Ruud van Nistelrooy came off the field, the Dutchman could already feel that his position in Manchester United was precarious. At least he was not as stable as Rooney.

Perhaps for Ferguson, Lu Xiaopang represents the future, while Ruud van Nistelrooy is already approaching dusk.

Anyway, less than a month after this substitution, Van Nistelrooy once again submitted his application for transfer.

However, Ferguson did not expect that the Dutch's preparations to leave would have anything to do with the Han people this time.

If he knew, he might put the blame on Lin Yi again. That kid had ruined his plan more than once. Now, not only on the court, but also off the court, this kid also started to stir things up.

I really don’t know if Ferguson will turn into a vampire because of his excessive resentment and prepare to kill Lin Yi directly.

Of course, that is a thing for another time, but Ruud Van Nistelrooy's end freed up Carvalho and Terry. After enduring Manchester United's attack for half a day, they finally got free to strangle Lu Xiaopang.

Not only that, Lin Yi used the six bloody marks on his calf to get a free kick, which also made Van der Sar break out in a cold sweat. Lampard was already taking the kick, but he was used to using heavy artillery and long shots to solve it. The guy with the problem was embroidering in front of tens of thousands of fans at Old Trafford.

Running up and waving his legs, these actions deceived Manchester United's wall, but when they jumped up, they discovered that Lampard did not shoot angrily, but lightly stepped on the football and moved it behind him. Gerrard was in He rushed up from behind, and the first one to get out of the wall was Keane. The Irish tough guy only expected to use his body to block this guy's long shot, but he was also fooled by Gerrard, and the guy didn't shoot either. , just rubbed the ball up with the arch of his foot, and the football flew near the small penalty area of ​​Manchester United.

Two fake moves and two feint shots made Manchester United's defense a little loose. Drogba inserted himself into the hinterland of the small penalty area at this critical moment. Although Ferdinand was still marking him, he was the first to do so. The header was extremely tricky, and Van der Sar could only make a very awkward save, thanks to this guy's height and long arms. Otherwise, if someone else had been the goalkeeper, he would have been scored.

But such a wonderful performance was rewarded with roars from thousands of Chelsea fans. After being frustrated for almost half an hour, these guys finally saw the blue chariot start up again.

Although the free kick was not successful this time, and the subsequent corner kick was intercepted by Van der Sar, the fact that this combination was possible proved that these guys had completely relaxed and started to prepare for a counterattack.

This is definitely not good news for Ferguson. When a group of animals begins to recover, the destructive power these guys can bring will put more pressure on the Manchester United team. This makes the Manchester United team, which has just been sent off one man, Starting to get troubled gradually, don't forget, there are still sixty minutes in the game.

No one knows what that little lunatic can do with these animals in these sixty minutes.
