After conceding the goal, Manchester United was silent for a while.

However, anyone who knows Manchester United knows that Manchester United's ability to fight back during the Ferguson era was super strong.

Soon, Manchester United got a blast from Scholes in front of the penalty area. It looked like Scholes was very powerful, but in fact, the trident's movement and tearing apart Arsenal's defense also played a part in the credit.

Manchester United's movement in the frontcourt is indeed very flexible, and the trident is like an invisible hand, constantly tearing apart Arsenal's defense.

O'Shea took the ball, and he glanced sideways at Neville's assist.

Neville also participated in the World Cup in the summer and is England's main right back. His passing ability from the right is considered to be outstanding.

Neville didn't hit the bottom, so he didn't encounter much defensive resistance.

A 45-degree diagonal pass into the penalty area. Rooney in the front tried to header the ball, but he missed it. Ronaldo in the back also headed the ball, but still did not touch the ball. Both points failed and the ball slipped.

past.

But Manchester United's offense is becoming more and more three-dimensional, not only with the penetration of short passes by the trident, but also with crosses from the wing.

Cristiano Ronaldo was not yet famous for his headers at this time, but Li Qiao knew that Cristiano Ronaldo's header ability was actually one of the best among top forwards.

Therefore, the ability to frequently give headers to Ronaldo is not a wise choice.

And Manchester United just makes their offense more sophisticated.

After a pass, the ball went to the feet of Evra on the left. He caught up and passed the curve ball with his left foot. This time it was for Saha. The Frenchman headed the ball, but it did not reach the goal.

.

Wenger became sensitive to the repeated passing tactics. This was not just a coincidence, it might have been deliberately arranged by Ferguson.

If a rookie coach arranged this, it might just be an indifferent attempt, but who is Ferguson?

Such a person cannot waste offensive opportunities with unnecessary attempts. Such a person will definitely hit the enemy in one shot.

In fact, the outside world has not noticed it, but Ferguson has already noticed it, that is, Ronaldo feels particularly good when grabbing points.

In fact, later on in the Portuguese national team, Cristiano Ronaldo was often used as a center forward, and his header ability was really comparable to that of an aerial dominator like Crespo. It is said that Cristiano Ronaldo's jumping height is about the same as that of NBA stars.

It's just that the cycling boy's other skills are so eye-catching that many people overlook that he is actually a header expert.

While Wenger was thinking about countermeasures, Manchester United launched a very threatening attack, this time it was Scholes' cross.

The ball seemed to be an aimless pass, but Ronaldo suddenly started to shake off Toure and ran in the direction of the landing point.

This was so sudden that Arsenal's two central defenders Djurou and Toure were dumbfounded.

In the end, he watched Ronaldo rush towards the landing point. Faced with such an opportunity, Ronaldo was also very calm. He threw his head towards the opposite corner of the goal, which was the other side of Lehmann's empty defense. Just like that, the ball almost

It flew into the goal without any obstruction.

1 to 1.

Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates celebrated passionately. Cristiano Ronaldo, who was still young, celebrated very passionately, as if he was ruling the world.

And Ferguson on the bench also jumped up. This was his tactic.

For a team that wants to win the Champions League, they must have a lot of tricks in their arsenal. How can it be possible that the trident can penetrate the middle? If the opponent concentrates on the midfield, then it will be a waste of time.

High-quality crosses from the wing are essential, which is also the tradition of Premier League football.

Unlike Arsenal, Manchester United does not reject the tradition of the Premier League, and Manchester United has never pursued purely technical football.

More importantly, the team under Ferguson is considered a tough team.

*****

Losing the ball was expected, but what Wenger didn't expect was to lose a header, and it was Ronaldo.

In his impression, this guy is not a talented player who can only line up on the wing, cut inside and shoot, and his passing is often outrageous.

"The Portuguese have grown beyond my expectations," Wenger thought to himself.

After the 1-1 match, both sides played very skillfully. No one was impatient and both adopted a very cautious attitude.

Only three or four people are involved in the offense, and the main focus is on defense.

In fact, to be honest, this kind of top-level confrontation in the Premier League, no matter what the final result is, seems to be a reasonable thing.

Li Qiao gets the ball.

Rosicky immediately came over to support Li Qiao.

Li Qiao did not pass the ball this time. Instead, he used Rosicky to drive away a defensive player and then passed the ball to Henry.

Henry is the key defender of Manchester United. Although there is no chance to turn around, Silvestre's pressure on Henry is very strong, so Henry can only lightly pass the ball back to Li Qiao, and Li Qiao hits the goal with a sudden kick.

The ball was hit high, but Adebayor on the side was not satisfied. He felt that Li Qiao should pass the ball instead of shooting it himself.

"You should pass the ball."

Li Qiao made an apologetic gesture. I had the impression that Adebayor had a complete falling out with Arsenal later on, because the Togolese people really have a bad temper. He left Arsenal and bounced around many companies, but he was not kicked out.

, it can be seen that he is also a player like Cassano, he has talent, but he has too much temper.

Arsenal made several attacks, but most of them could only touch the outside of Manchester United. O'Shea and Fletcher have learned their lesson now, and their defense in the middle of the midfield is super tough, which may have been stimulated by Rosicky.

Under this situation, Arsenal also began to try out the wing, but Arsenal's full-back ability is much inferior to Manchester United's.

In this era, wing means the cooperation between wingers and full-backs. One is indispensable, otherwise it will be easy to be guarded.

Li Qiao couldn't hold the ball in the middle, so he also started to move to the side. He hugged the side, and this side was Evra.

At this time, Evra is considered one of the top five left-backs in the world, with top-notch ability and speed, and Ferguson also likes him very much.

Li Qiao tried several times but failed, and Rosicky came over to respond, which meant a two-on-one.

But Manchester United players are also very good at reading the game. Fletcher is like a mind reader. He knows what Rosicky wants to do, so he follows him like a shadow. In this way, Li Qiao passes the ball to Rosicky and then runs forward himself.

But the problem is that Rosicky may not be able to send the ball in front.

Therefore, it is not easy to be a good defensive player. Fletcher's move is actually the finishing touch.

No wonder when Fletcher left Manchester United later, the team's defense was greatly affected. These are actually tactics that cannot be seen in the broadcast, but they are very important for a game.
