There is a dream called football

Chapter 497 Toffee Everton

Manchester United's away game against Liverpool was very difficult. At Anfield, Manchester United finally defeated Liverpool 1-0, with Rooney scoring the winning goal.

After the game against Everton on December 23, Manchester United players can look forward to Christmas.

Originally, the game against Everton didn't have too many topics, but because of Ferguson's comments about Everton coach Moyes not long ago, the game between Manchester United and Everton suddenly became a topic.

When he arrived in Manchester, Moyes was questioned by reporters.

"Have you heard, you may very well be the next manager of Manchester United."

Moyes laughed and said, "I don't know where you heard this from, but I can only say that it's quite unreliable. We all know that Manchester United's coach is Sir Alex Ferguson."

"It was Sir who praised you by name personally."

"Then I can only say that I feel very honored to be praised by Sir Alex Ferguson, but I think I am still far away from the position of Manchester United head coach, at least for the time being, I cannot see the possibility."

"If you are called up by Manchester United, you will not hesitate to work at Manchester United."

This is a tricky topic, because if Moyes doesn't answer well, he will probably be scolded by Everton fans.

"I don't like to answer questions that don't exist, so I won't answer your questions, because for the time being, such questions seem meaningless."

"I hope you can ask some questions about the game itself, I would be more happy."

It was Manchester United's turn, and Ferguson began to clarify what he said last time.

"I think everyone misunderstood what I meant last time. I just said that I admire Moyes very much. In fact, I also admire many head coaches, such as Koeman of the Netherlands, Heynckes of Germany, etc. I prefer Moyes.

Just to give an example, but your media is so good at causing trouble, it seems like it made me feel like I’ve been fired.”

"Hahaha."

"I'll say it again, I just admire Moyes and I will always coach Manchester United."

*****

The reason why Moyes later failed at Manchester United is too complicated, but he was really successful at Everton.

Everton under Moyes has two major characteristics. The first is that it is sticky and defends like toffee, so Everton's nickname is also toffee.

The second characteristic is hardness.

Moyes likes to use midfielders with sufficient hardness, such as Gravesson and later Fellaini, who are all players with such characteristics. They can decide the outcome of the game in the midfield.

In this game, Everton's midfielder is such a butcher midfielder. The first one is Gravesson who returned from Real Madrid and is still strong. The other one is Jagielka who was trained by Everton themselves.

There is also Australia's Cahill. Without Moyes, he must be an all-around midfielder, which means he has to go up to attack and come back to help defend.

Therefore, this kind of midfield defense is very tough, and Ferguson also sent out a strong offensive lineup.

First of all, Li Qiao started this game, and Anderson also started. Surprisingly, on the left, Sir Alex chose Tevez instead of Ronaldo.

After the opening, Everton's tough defense caused Manchester United to suffer. Especially in the midfield, Manchester United's advancement basically encountered strong resistance.

Li Qiao was mentally prepared when he met Graveson. He half-turned to get stuck before protecting the ball, but Graveson came over like a jeep and directly knocked Li Qiao to the ground.

"This move is too big."

Ferguson was very dissatisfied, but Graveson looked indifferent, as if he had done nothing.

If this action were in the Bundesliga, it would have received a yellow card, but in the Premier League, upper body movements are still not so strict.

But for Li Qiao, this blow was not light. Graveson looked like he had learned martial arts, and this blow was very powerful.

The game continued, and soon Li Qiao got the ball again and faced Gravesen. This time Gravesen attacked again, and this time Li Qiao was rude. After the ball went out of bounds, Li Qiao and Gravesen fought against each other.

The two heads met.

"You bastard, try kicking me again."

"Just try it, be careful with your legs."

"f...u"

"f."

"Wow, Li Qiao can actually get angry." Queiroz on the sidelines was surprised, because as an Oriental, Li Qiao always felt gentle to him, but the rabbit bit him when he was anxious. This Graveson was obviously doing it to him.

If you show off your power, of course you cannot tolerate it.

This time the referee was rude and took out yellow cards, one for each player, and each player played fifty boards. However, in this way, the atmosphere of the game became more intense, the adrenaline of both sides soared, and they felt like they were full of energy.

I think we can all feel that too.

But a football match can't just be adrenaline, it becomes a fight. The score was 0-0 in the first half. Manchester United seemed to be restrained by Everton's attrition tactics and couldn't find any good solution for the time being.

Ferguson is also used to this, because whenever he faced Everton in previous games, it was basically not easy.

This is also the reason why Ferguson likes Moyes. His team is tough enough. Ferguson has always been proud of being a Scotsman, because most Scots are tough-blooded.

I remember that Ferguson once had a conflict with Keane, and Ferguson actually made the evil Keane even tougher.

At the beginning of the second half, Everton still used the same tactics. Their midfield seemed to be a perpetual motion machine with endless physical energy, until one person changed everything. This person was Carlos Tevez.

It goes without saying that Argentina has great football skills, but his temper is indeed bad, so in the end he had no choice but to return to Argentina to shine.

But when he is on the court, no one can deny his level.

Facing the opponent's strong defense, Tevez suddenly cut inside. This was a choice that no one thought of, because Everton didn't do much research on Tevez, and more defense pressure was on Li Qiao's side, but

Unexpectedly, the Argentinian suddenly failed in this game.

After cutting inside, right on the penalty area line, Tevez suddenly took a long shot, and the ball drew a wonderful arc. American goalkeeper Howard seemed helpless. He pounced, but the distance was a little too far. When the ball

When it flew into the far corner, Ferguson jumped with excitement.

"The ball is in!!!"

Moyes was unable to do anything about it. It was an unexpected goal, but Everton's advantage was 0-0. When the balance of the game was broken, Moyes's method didn't work. Sure enough, Everton failed in the end.

One goal was scored away from home, and Manchester United relied on Tevez's goal.

Defeated the Toffees 1-0.
