There is a dream called football

Li Qiao was really frightened. This ball subverted his three views. He thought that as a time traveler, he could always be one step ahead in everything.

It is up to you to improve your strength, but at least you know which team you should go to and which team will cheat you. However, Li Qiao discovered at this time that many things were vague and did not necessarily follow the original history.

Mourinho's heart was bleeding. Even if he was laughed to death, he decided to correct his mistakes.

Substitute!

"Go and call Li Qiao over."

Morais ran over, and Li Qiao immediately took off his substitute vest, wrapped tape around his ankle, and patted his thigh hard.

Mourinho put his hand on Li Qiao's shoulder, "Qiao, when you go up, attack Bart's side, the bald one, do you understand?"

Bart.

A member of Manchester United's Class of '92, he is considered a defensive player, but now that he is older, his position is getting further and further back.

Guarding Manchester United's left wing in this game, Ferguson also used his experience.

Mourinho signaled a substitution, Li Qiao replaced Mendes, and the formation returned to 442. Mourinho admitted his mistake with practical actions.

*****

"It seems a little late to adjust now. What Manchester United is best at is defensive counterattack. They have two away goals in hand." Martin Taylor said with a smile.

The British feel that their team is certain to win, and the only suspense is how many they win.

"Porto is an upstart in Europe, but compared with the established giants, they are still far behind. This is also a lesson Manchester United can teach them."

It's not just Martin Taylor who is not optimistic about Porto, most of the on-site commentators hold this view. Porto is very strong, but seems to be too fragile compared to Manchester United.

Ferguson felt relieved, but Sir Alex Ferguson had too much experience. He knew that he still couldn't take it lightly. There were still too many big comebacks in the Champions League. Didn't his team reverse Bayern Munich and win the Champions League back then?

He pointed at Scholes and Keane, "Cheer up, we haven't won yet!"

"And you, Gary."

Neville was far away from Ferguson and couldn't hear anything at all, but Neville, the only remaining member of the Class of 92, was as respectful as if he were in front of Ferguson.

"And you, Brown."

"you."

"you."

…

Ferguson blew it once and felt more comfortable, so he sat back.

*****

Deco took the ball, with Maniche on the left and Li Qiao on the right. He immediately felt much more comfortable passing the ball and split the ball to Li Qiao's side.

Bart used a soccer tackle to greet the newly arrived Li Qiao. This was a veteran's intimidation to young people, but what he didn't expect was that this young man was unusual. Li Qiao showed no fear and passed with a flick of his ankle.

"Idiot," Ferguson spat.

Bart's movements look fierce. It's okay to intimidate rookies with this kind of movement, but when it comes to flexible players, it's just a way to get away with it.

Li Qiao dribbles the ball, and Manchester United's defense has gathered. Frontal confrontation is not Li Qiao's characteristic, so he must use his strengths and avoid his weaknesses.

Li Qiao looked inside the penalty area and hit McCarthy with a curve ball.

The South African struggled with Phil Neville, but goalkeeper Howard made the first move and snatched the ball away.

The attack failed, but Ferguson saw some clues. The newly replaced No. 7 was a bit interesting.

He was quite smart when he passed Butte, and his footwork in the subsequent cross was also good.

"Porto really has talent."

*****

Manchester United is a wealthy club, and Manchester United operates on three fronts, so one skill that must be learned is to control the rhythm of the game.

If you can win a game by spending 50% of your physical fitness, then never spend 51%. Only in this way can you achieve good results in all three lines.

With two goals in hand, Manchester United's formation shrunk their defense. Porto faced a positional battle, and it was Manchester United's position.

Mourinho knows this is difficult to handle, but there is no way. This is what we have to face now.

Deco passed through the center several times, but the ball never passed. The opponent had too many people in the center, and Deco lost contact with McCarthy.

Li Qiao has a lot of strength, but there is nowhere to run. The opponent's formation fills up the half-court space.

At this moment, the furious Maniche hit the opponent with a blast and hit the bottom line.

Corner kick.

A good opportunity. For a side that is engaged in a positional battle, a corner kick is indeed a good opportunity to press all the players.

Mourinho made a big move, Jorge Costa and Carvalho also pressed forward, leaving the goalkeeper and two full-backs in the half.

Ferguson couldn't sit still anymore and stood up. Porto's set pieces were still very strong.

Deco ran to the corner flag area to prepare for the kick-off.

Manchester United stood ready, and Deco held out three fingers. His teammates understood clearly that this meant playing in the middle, and the two central defenders were eager to try.

A curve ball went to the middle. Li Qiao was also fighting for position, but was knocked to the ground by Bart.

"It's a penalty kick."

Li Qiao complained, but no one ignored him. When he looked again, he saw that the ball was held by Howard.

His teammates ran back as hard as they could, and no one paid any attention to Li Qiao's complaint about the penalty kick.

Howard took the ball and swatted it a few times. He was not in a hurry because Porto retreated quickly and there seemed to be no particularly good opportunities. He threw the ball on the ground.

Suddenly, a blue figure came out from behind and hooked the ball away. Howard pounced forward and missed, watching helplessly as he hit the ball into the goal.

The Dragon Stadium was boiling, 1-2, Porto got a goal back.

Manchester United has complained, and the most excited person is Ferguson. He thinks there is something wrong with the ball, and the problem is huge.

The dispute is whether the ball is under Howard's control. The rules stipulate that if the ball is still within the goalkeeper's control, it is illegal for the opposing player to touch the ball.

Ferguson was arguing with the fourth official, and Mourinho walked over and said, "There is nothing wrong with the ball."

"This ball doesn't exist at all. Your No. 7 is a thief."

Howard was very excited, "The ball is clearly within my control. He committed a foul."

"You should watch your back," the Porto player teased.

Howard's face burned red and he had to admit that he had indeed made a very amateurish mistake. In the end, the referee made a ruling that the goal was valid.

Li Qiao is celebrating, Porto is celebrating, 1-2 is far different from 0-2. This goal is not only a goal, but also a shot in the arm.

The deal was done, and Ferguson was unhappy, but there was nothing he could do. He gestured for Bart to come over, "Keep an eye on that No. 7, he's very cunning."

At this point, Ferguson still didn't know what Porto's No. 7 was called. He felt something was wrong and said to the assistant next to him: "Check for me what the No. 7 is called and what its origins are."
