There are always some small accidents in SPN games. Maybe today's game when the Turkish referee was messed with by Li Yu will become a famous accident on the field!
Now the Turkish referee has regarded Li Yu as a thorn in his side. No matter how annoying it is, he cannot directly send Li Yu off due to professional ethics, but he can still find some trouble in the second half. No matter what, it must be done
Find a seemingly reasonable opportunity and remove the thorn in your side.
In the final stoppage time, the referee had no intention of giving Porto any more offensive opportunities. As soon as Porto player Hulk handed the ball to his teammate, the referee blew the whistle and the first half ended.
As the whistle blew, Turkish referee Cakir made gestures, but his eyes glanced at Li Yu from time to time.
Although Li Yu had his back to the referee, Ferguson on the sidelines noticed this detail. After all, he was an old man. He had seen such things many times, and of course he knew some of the tricks of the trade. Ferguson secretly made a decision in his heart.
You can rest in the second half. As the referee, you don't have to look for any more opportunities. This is called nip in the bud.[
Of course, Li Yu, who was walking towards the tunnel of the Dragon Stadium, had no idea that many twists and turns had happened to him in just a few minutes, which also determined his fate in the second half.
When the Manchester United players returned to the locker room, everyone was very excited. They completely dominated the game in the first half, allowing Porto to score two goals in a row, venting all the bad energy from the first game at Old Trafford.
Now the total score has become 4:2. Both teams also scored two away goals. Porto must score at least 3 goals in the second half if they want to advance. This is almost an impossible task.
The Manchester United players were very relaxed, sitting together in small groups and chatting. The locker room has not been so relaxed for a long time.
Ferguson then walked into the locker room, and everyone stopped joking and waited for Sir Alex to speak and plan the tactics for the second half.
"This is the player I have, this is the momentum. We did a good job in the first half. We have to maintain it in the second half and not give our opponents a chance to come back. The dragon will also be overthrown by the Red Devils, not to mention it is still a stadium!
"
"Ha ha"
When the players heard Ferguson making a joke, they knew that the old man must be very satisfied with the game in the first half, and they immediately started laughing.
Of course Li Yu also laughed along with his teammates, but in his heart he really didn't think this kind of British joke was funny. It's not his fault. After all, he grew up in a different cultural environment and could adapt to everything, except
Li Yu couldn't get used to the unique British jokes for a while.
If you look carefully, Manchester United's No. 9 still looks a little bit amused when he hears these jokes.
"In the second half, I first have to make a personnel adjustment. Park Ji-sung replaces Lee Ok to strengthen the interception ability in the midfield. Ronaldo and Rooney will partner up front!"
Ferguson's next words were a bit sudden, but most players can still understand the old man's idea of substituting this time. For no other reason, Li Yu seemed to be facing off with the referee today, and he also had a yellow card. In the first half, Manchester United
Among the two yellow cards the team received was Li Yu, which was very dangerous in the second half. Ferguson's move was entirely to protect the players and also to preserve Manchester United's ability to advance to the semi-finals.
Li Yu really didn't expect that the old man didn't tell the real reason in front of all the players. Li Yu actually understood it, but he couldn't accept it when he was substituted before even one minute of play in the second half.
Li Yu noticed who Ferguson was with a small movement, but the old man didn't say any more. It was normal to have some emotions when he was replaced after performing well. However, the old man was also a person who could not bear to be disrespectful in his eyes. He looked at it with an unkind expression at that time.
Li Yu's glance was a warning.
Ronaldo nudged Li Yu with his football boot, reminding Li Yu not to get emotional. For your own good, fighting with the old man is definitely not worth the gain.
Li Yu also understood the truth. He lowered his head and said nothing. The 15-minute intermission was really like a year for Li Yu. He didn't listen to the rest of the words. The second half had nothing to do with him.
, what he thought was to stay on the bench and watch the second half of Manchester United's game!
When the match staff informed the Manchester United players to enter the field and prepare, all the Manchester United players stood up and left the locker room. When Li Yu put on his coat and walked out, Ferguson stayed with him and said, "You can talk about any dissatisfaction you have now!"
"Boss, actually I just feel a little uncomfortable being replaced like this. I don't mean anything else!" Li Yu sorted out his thoughts and expressed his true feelings.
"Do you know the real reason for replacing you?" Ferguson heard Li Yu's words, nodded to express understanding, and then asked.[
"I know, the referee will probably find an opportunity to take me off the court in the second half because I embarrassed him!" Li Yuke thought for a long time before he came up with this reason during the halftime break. He did not regret it at all.
Doing that kind of celebration during a goal celebration
Zuo, it feels good to be so angry. Again, in Li Yu's heart, only players who perform extremely poorly will be replaced at the beginning of the second half. However, he performed very well, and he actually felt a little wronged in his heart.
, I can’t get around this twist in my mind.
"Very well, remember as a player you are a player, and he is a referee. On the field, players cannot question the referee. In the club, you cannot question your head coach. This is not allowed.
"Especially in the Manchester United team, I am in charge of the refereeing. I am your boss and I will not just watch you suffer on the field. Please remember this and remember my words!" Ferguson
With a serious expression, he taught Li Yu a lesson.
Perhaps feeling that he was a little too harsh, Ferguson then stepped forward and punched Li Yu in the chest, "You kid, just score goals. Leave the refereeing of future games to me!"
"Boss, I remember, I'm in charge of goals, you're in charge of everything!" Li Yu was really a little scared just now. Who was he facing? Ferguson, the godfather of Manchester United. Although the boss didn't use the legendary hair dryer, he looked cold and solemn.
These words were enough to scare him. Fortunately, Ferguson finally became more friendly to the people.
When the Manchester United players walked out of the tunnel in the second half, both Manchester United fans and Chinese fans discovered a problem. Li Yu was not among the players who played in the second half. Some fans may have guessed the reason, but some fans were still wondering whether Li Yu was injured.
, still worried about Li Yu.
"I didn't see Manchester United's No. 9. He did a great job in the first half, but he also completely offended the Turkish referee. Ferguson's decision to replace him early was undoubtedly the right decision. He had a 2-goal advantage.
There is no need for Manchester United to take risks in the second half of the game. Li Yu, who has started every game recently, can also take a rest!" The Portuguese commentator revealed the real reason behind it.
At the same time, the end of China's side also raised the same point, and the fans immediately knew the real situation. So it is beneficial to change, and you can also rest, that's not bad!
Later, it was discovered that in the footage, Li Yu was sitting on the bench wearing a thin coat and watching the game intently, showing no other dissatisfaction.
The Chinese fans don’t know why, but after watching this scene, they feel a little sleepy!
At 4 or 5 o'clock in the morning, it was the sleepiest time. At this time, Li Yu was no longer on the court. Huaxia fans lost the player they paid most attention to. Many people's eyelids started to fight. After Li Yu's end, Huaxia fans began to feel sleepy.
I don’t know when this problem started to appear, but it was extremely obvious in Manchester United’s Champions League promotion match.
After the game, according to ratings statistics produced by an authoritative company, the number of people watching the game in China reached 1.4 billion in the first half. However, after Li Yu was substituted in the second half, the number of viewers plummeted to about 98 million.
The gap between before and after is almost 50 million. This is the number of people in a European country. The gap is obvious. Considering the time period of 4 or 5 in the morning, the company also specifically asked a question. If Li Yu had not been replaced, what would the 50 million people have been?
How many people will stick to watching the second half of the game?
The answer is still very surprising. 30 million people said they would still stick to it. Most of these lost fans are female fans. They watch the game only for Li Yu. Without the appeal of Manchester United's No. 9, the game will be just that.
It doesn't make any sense anymore.
Facts speak for themselves. The game was quite exciting, but without Li Yu, the Chinese female fans didn’t really buy it. Of course, these are pseudo-fans who don’t really watch the game purely. The data has been released, but it still caused a lot of controversy.
sensation.
The sensation is sensational, but all this has little to do with European fans. They pay more attention to the game itself.
In the second half, an unexpected heavy rain made the game full of variables again. The heavy rain stopped Manchester United's ground attack that had been working well in the first half. Porto is actually not good at rain battles, but this game has become a real meaning.
It was a last-ditch battle, and Porto made a desperate long pass.
However, Manchester United was affected by the rainy battle and could only rely on Ronaldo and Rooney for a quick counterattack. Other players were more defensive. Giggs could occasionally join the attack, but the veteran's physical fitness problems were not enough in the rain.
It also began to show up during the war, Ferguson said
Not long after the start of the second half, the second substitution decision was made. Ronaldo withdrew to the wing, Tevez replaced Giggs and Rooney as a striker partner. Manchester United still had to maintain a certain offensive ability. Ferguson did not want to
Give all the initiative in the game to Porto.
Li Yu looked worried from the bench on the sidelines. Why did it start to rain in the second half? If he was still on the field at this time, he would definitely be able to grab a lot of headers and help the team with long passes.
He has also made some achievements. Li Yu still has a little bit of confidence in this, but because of his inappropriate celebration after scoring a goal in the first half, he can only sit on the bench and worry now.
Only at this moment did he truly realize the meaning of Ferguson's words. If he had followed Ferguson's words to do what a player should do on the field, he would definitely be more helpful to the team if he was still on the field, and there was no point in being upset.
, now we can only look forward to the ending with a number, Porto will not score.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and Manchester United's short passing coordination was completely useless. The lawn of the Dragon Stadium began to accumulate water in some areas. Regardless of the heavy rain outside, Ferguson stood in the command area and kicked the ball vigorously.
This action has two meanings. The guard moves up
Don’t hesitate with your feet in front of the penalty area. The forward players should try more long-range shots. Both teams were actually affected by the heavy rain. Neither team changed their special rain boots. No one has much advantage. Now it depends on the players of the two teams.
It’s time to fight for physical fitness and willpower with real swords and guns.
After the game, all the media described the game as a hand-to-hand battle in the rain. The players from both teams had little skill to speak of. Porto players fought hard to the end, and Manchester United players also fought hard to the end.
In the 85th minute of the game, Porto's top scorer Hulk finally took advantage of a long-range shot from outside the penalty area and penetrated Van der Sar's fingers, which saved Porto's face at the Dragon Stadium.[
But the final total score of the game was still that Manchester United advanced to the semi-finals 4:3. Manchester United eliminated the Porto team, which is recognized as the weakest among the Champions League quarter-finals, by one goal. This somewhat makes people worry about Manchester United's final success in defending the Champions League. The defense line
Conceding a goal again, Manchester United's previously reassuring defense was broken down by opponents one after another. It became a bit fragile whether it was in the Premier League or the Champions League knockout competition.
On the front line, the performance of Li Yu and Ronaldo is quite satisfactory, but the status of other players seems to be relatively sluggish, and the midfield line is collectively lost. Against Porto and Manchester United, they only played well in the first half, and fell into trouble in the second half.
In terms of passiveness, physical fitness, we have to talk about Manchester United's physical fitness problem. The biggest problem hindering Manchester United's great achievements now is the problem of too many games and excessive physical consumption of players.
Ferguson has a headache over this, but he can't come up with any good solutions. Manchester United has already begun to use every possible means of rotation tactics, but now it seems that the impact on the players is still huge. Now the Manchester United team can rest assured
There are almost no team members, Li Yu is one of them. This young Chinese man's physical fitness is surprising. It seems that he doesn't have to worry about physical fitness at all.
The most important player in the Manchester United team is Li Yu. Both the British media and the Chinese media have realized this problem. As long as Li Yu is on the field, there is no physical problem at all. Everyone wants to explore what is the reason for Li Yu's success.
Yu’s good physical fitness!
Li Yu's three-meal-a-day recipe was quickly revealed by the media. Many athletes may know this recipe. There is not much about the recipe itself. The key is persistence. Li Yu eats this kind of food every day.
.
How many people can persist in this kind of tasteless thing?
Not many people can do it. Looking at Li Yu's training volume, it is surprising. He insists on running in the morning and actively practices more every day. The amount of exercise on the day of the competition may be the least amount of exercise for him.
What a terrifying thing. Is Li Yu a football genius?
People who have read this series of reports may have such doubts in their hearts. Even if Li Yu is a genius, such a genius is born from hard training and an extremely strict diet. Especially Chinese fans, it seems that the first
This is the first time I have seen the real side of Li Yu. In the past, I have seen his beautiful scenery in reports, but behind the beautiful scenery, there are some hardships that are unbearable for ordinary people.
Many female fans shed tears after watching it!
What inspiring and positive news!
This is the most marketable news in China, and it can also be used widely by the influence of football stars, and it will be further deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
CCTV also decided to send a special report team to Manchester, England for the second time to produce another special program for Li Yu. Of course, Manchester United's historic six-time champion is also the focus of the report. Now there are Chinese players who play important roles in the Manchester United team.
The role is great. How could such an opportunity have existed before? After cooperating with Manchester United TV, CCTV Sports Channel has almost become Manchester United's exclusive channel in China. Cooperation between the two parties has been something that was unthinkable before.
The reporting team was still led by young reporter Duan Xuan, who was considered an old friend to Li Yu. The reporting team stayed in Li Yu's mansion in Cheshire just like last time.
Duan Xuan also brought gifts from China, a large bag of Yanjing specialties. What made Li Yu most happy was that there was also Yanjing roast duck. Although these were vacuum-packed products, they were no longer as delicious as fresh ones.
, but Li Yu made an exception for this and ate three large pieces of roast duck.
During the critical period of the Manchester United match, Li Yu's diet control has been extremely strict, and it is not easy to make an exception.
The Manchester United club also gave the green light to this reporting team. This time it also brought exciting news. Manchester United coach Ferguson agreed to the CCTV reporting team to conduct a half-hour interview. This is absolutely huge.
Face, a separate interview with Ferguson?
Duan Xuan thought he had misheard what the club staff said. Without the good performance of Chinese player Li Yu, such an opportunity would never have been possible.
What else can I say, get ready. It was already an honor to be able to follow up and report on a wealthy club like Manchester United, twice in a row, and now I have to do an exclusive interview with Ferguson. The night Duan Xuan received the notice, he didn't sleep a wink all night.
, there are all kinds of problems in his mind, and some topics that need to be avoided, and he must not mess up, so he can't help but not feel nervous.
Li Yu is still training and preparing for the game as usual. The league has entered the final sprint stage. Every game must score three points. This means that Manchester United needs his offense and his goals. Of course, he cannot have the slightest chance.
