There is a dream called football

In a bar in Liverpool, the fans were very anxious. There was only one word to describe the once glorious Liverpool in the Premier League era, and that was miserable.

In the past 10 years, the Premier League has only belonged to two teams, Manchester United and Arsenal, and the only thing left for Liverpool is the distant lead of the Champions League. However, the last time Liverpool won the Champions League was in 1984.

So even the people of Liverpool find it difficult to be proud of this. We can't always put Shankly out and be proud of it.

On the pitch, Manchester United recovered from all fronts, with Scholes playing as both an attacking midfielder and a defensive midfielder, forming a midfield interception barrier with O'Shea.

It has to be said that Manchester United under Ferguson is indeed an iron army, with a very balanced offense and defense. Although Liverpool is one person ahead, it is really hard to tell on the scene.

*****

In Liverpool, Lorinda and Sosa were watching the game at their home. Even Lorinda, a layman, could see that Li Qiao was restricted.

"Dad, that long hair is so awesome."

"His name is Heinz, he's from Argentina."

Sousa is more professional when watching the game. Manchester United's two wing defenses against Liverpool are different. Kewell's side restricts passes, while Li Qiao's side completely locks down the ball.

It seems that Ferguson studied Liverpool's playing style before the game and knew that Li Qiao was more active.

Benitez is known as the master of tactics. He understands that there are generally two types of football tactics, one is penetration from the center, and the other is from the wing.

Now it is obviously impossible to play in the middle. Manchester United has accumulated a lot of people in the midfield, and even Ruud van Nistelrooy is back, so it is very important to open up the wings. Unfortunately...

"Unlock Li Qiao or Kewell, then our offense will have a chance."

"As long as the opponent's two wings are restricted, the opponent will have no chance." Ferguson laughed in his heart.

So how can you unlock the side lanes?

The simplest way is to send a strong full-back. Benitez has such a choice in his hands, and that is Riise.

Old fans are very impressed by Riise, not only for his fiery red hair, but more importantly for his explosive shots and quick attacks from the wing.

So should Riise be placed on the left or the right?

Benitez thought for a while and decided to put it on Li Qiao's side. At this time, Benitez already had his own preference for Li Qiao.

And soon, before Benitez could make a substitution, something happened to Liverpool on the field. Kewell suddenly sat on the ground.

In his previous life, the football players who impressed Li Qiao the most were Irving, Ronaldo, and Kewell. Basically, as long as it was a key game, Kewell would give up 100% of the time.

After a brief diagnosis, the team doctor gave Benitez a signal, but he had no choice but to replace him with Garcia first and then Riise, which wasted a substitution spot.

The tactics Benitez gave to Riise were very clear. He was to assist Li Qiao in attacking on the right wing.

After Riise came on the field, he briefly exchanged a few words with Li Qiao and briefly explained the tactics. This was not difficult to understand, and Li Qiao accepted it readily.

The game continued, Li Qiao still got the ball from the wing, Heinz fought and retreated, never pounced, he was like a plaster stuck to Li Qiao's body, and it felt like he couldn't shake it off.

At this moment, Heinz noticed something was different. A flash of red flashed across his face, and Rise puffed out his chest and rushed forward as if he were running a 100-meter race.

"this……"

Heinz already knew instinctively what Riise was going to do, and sure enough, Li Qiao passed the ball over, leaving Riise in a deserted situation, and Manchester United's defense immediately sounded the alarm.

Just after he came on the field, Riise's mind was very excited and he was still congested. He lobbed a curved ball into the penalty area. Cisse hit it hard and the ball missed the top. But this was Liverpool's first effective attack in the second half.

, that is to say, this is an offense created by Liverpool themselves.

Ferguson was very impressed. Benitez's move had revitalized Liverpool's right wing. So what should Ferguson do?

One way is to let Giggs come back to help defend, and the other way is to fight violence with violence. Manchester United also attacks from this wing to see who can kill whom in the end.

Some people say that offense is the best defense, and some say that defense is the best offense. This is a personal choice.

Ferguson thought for a while and finally chose to attack. He asked Giggs and Heinz to attack on the left.

This is of course very dangerous, and it is also possible that he was beaten out of the wing. Benitez was also surprised when he saw his opponent's choice. As expected of Manchester United and Ferguson, the choice was indeed unexpected.

At this time, Li Qiao patted Riise and said, "Let's run a little more, go back together on defense, and go up together on offense."

Riise smiled and nodded. Youth is an advantage at this time. The two of them are much younger than Giggs and Heinz.

The subsequent results also confirmed this point. After both sides rushed three or four times, Li Qiao was still very active, but Heinz couldn't take it anymore.

Ferguson went down the steps and got off the bench. He couldn't sit still because he had already seen the situation on the field.

"Alan, come here."

Smith ran over, and Ferguson pointed to Giggs, "I ask you to play like this."

Ferguson was planning to add two men on the wing, hoping to block Liverpool's attack and stop using violence to fight violence. This was also a big move.

Smith, Fletcher, O'Shea, and Carrick were all engineers under Ferguson, who worked hard and wreaked havoc without complaining. In fact, Keane did the same. Ferguson especially liked this kind of player, who was as easy to use as all-purpose glue.

After Smith was moved to the wing, the restriction on Liverpool was immediately obvious. Riise was almost the same as Smith in terms of physical confrontation, which meant that he was outmatched.

Benitez couldn't sit still anymore. He and Ferguson seemed to be fighting with each other, but this opponent was obviously very powerful and it was difficult to kill him with one blow.

At this moment, the situation on the court suddenly changed. Just when four people were piled up on the right wing, someone suddenly stepped forward. When Li Qiao saw it, it turned out to be Gerrard.

It turns out that Gerrard had already understood the situation of the game at this time, so he came up with the stupidest way possible, which was to add another person on the wing.

As soon as Gerrard ran, Li Qiao immediately passed the ball up. Gerrard took a few steps, saw the right moment, and curled the ball into the penalty area.

The ball was given to Baros in the back, and Cisse in the front was a cover, but the French attracted most of the defense.

After the ball leaked through, Baros headed it, just like he did in the Czech national team, and the fans in the audience saw the ball being smashed into the Manchester United goal.

Old Trafford was stunned.
