Chapter 194: Silent Conquest

,

spn Ferguson was just satisfied with the performance of his players, but something unexpected happened on the field!

In the 39th minute, McFadden headed the ball and Jerome passed Evans in the upper right corner of the penalty area and his shot was blocked by Brown.

Manchester United barely cleared a corner kick. Bowyer headed into the penalty area and was blocked by Evans. Jerome scored from close range.

Birmingham equalized the score. Manchester United's defense was in panic for the first time, and the opponent seized the opportunity and scored a goal at the end of the first half!

The score became 1:1![

Ferguson was simply furious. What happened to Manchester United's once-proud defense? The first attack was fine, but the opponent's second wave of attacks frequently allowed the opponent to seize opportunities.

Although injuries are a fair excuse, the old man doesn't want to always use injuries to defend himself when facing the media.

When Li Yu heard the whistle after the goal, she held her head in annoyance and muttered something.

If only he could seize one of the few opportunities just now, how great it would be!

There is no way, this is a football match, the attacking side did not expand the score, but the passive side took advantage of the only opportunity and scored a goal.

The first half of the game ended. The excited Birmingham fans felt as if they had won the game during the halftime break. This was Manchester United. When they were lagging behind, Birmingham equalized the score at the end of the first half.

The fans sang and danced excitedly, and even a few excited young men were already shirtless!

The Manchester United players were in the lounge, not affected by the warm atmosphere outside at all, and seemed a little dull.

With a score of 1:1, all the players on the field were dissatisfied.

The defenders were worried that Ferguson might get angry.

Li Yu, the only striker, was still a little upset. The situation he wanted most did not appear, but the opponent used the opportunity to score goals to boost the morale of the home team. In Li Yu's view, this was somewhat unjustifiable, especially since he still had

Got several good opportunities.

Ask yourself, aren’t you calm when it’s time to kill someone?

no!

Goalkeeper Hart played so well!

The only opponent in the second half of the game is Hart, and he must break through with all his fingers.

Li Yu thought about his own affairs for a long time. The locker room was already very dull. Ferguson also came to the locker room. "You all know the importance of three points in this game to the team. I don't need to emphasize this anymore."

!”

"You are Manchester United players. You have to ask me to see the value and ability of real Manchester United players. This is a must!"

"What I want to take away today is victory, so cheer up for me, did you hear that?"

"I heard it!" The Manchester United generals quickly responded loudly to the coach's words.

"Very good, that's right, go out and shut up the people outside!"[

"Okay, boss!"

Li Yu was one of the people who answered the loudest.

At the beginning of the second half, Li Yu's offense was still the most threatening to Manchester United.

Especially when difficult situations need to be tackled, his role cannot be ignored.

Although Birmingham's defensive players are in pretty good shape, their overall strength is still lacking. Besides, what kind of body is placed on a pervert like Li Yu, which can be ignored!

After Li Yu got the ball, he took the initiative to strengthen his breakthrough. No matter what the opponent was like, it was difficult to steal the ball from his feet without committing a foul. The gap between technique and body was already obvious.

After receiving Park Ji-sung's pass, Li Yu actually made the right choice to dribble the ball forward. After all, he was already very close to Birmingham's penalty area. As a forward whose mission is to score goals, if he thinks there is a chance, he will dribble the ball forward.

As he moves forward, no one can accuse him of anything.

His mission today is to score goals, and he also needs to score goals.

Birmingham's iron barrel formation has been set up, and as many as seven players are waiting at the front of the penalty area.

Li Yu caught the ball and moved forward without hesitation, taking the ball and rushing into Birmingham's penalty area.

As soon as they saw Li Yu taking the ball, Birmingham's defensive players collectively tensed up and became nervous. No matter where they were, they all gathered around Li Yu.

After Park Ji-sung distributed the ball, he initially planned to help Li Yu to distract Birmingham's defensive forces. Who would have thought that they would simply ignore him, not ignore him at all, and rush to Manchester United's No. 9!

Almost instantly, Birmingham players surrounded Li Yu at the front of the penalty area.

Even if Li Yu wanted to pass the ball at this moment, he couldn't pass it.

When he stepped into the penalty area, he had already anticipated what would happen next. Isn't it just a solo fight? Who is afraid of whom!

Ridgewell bumped into him from the side and rear, and at the same time he stretched out his foot to stab the football. However, he soon discovered that he didn't hit a person, but a wall... Li Yu didn't shake at all, but he himself was hit by

Due to the influence of the reaction force, it tilted to one side.

Of course, Ridgewell wasn't the only one who stole Li Yu's ball.

Li Yu quickly pulled the football from his right foot to his left foot, avoiding Ridgewell's steal.

Another person came over from the other side, it was Birmingham center back Roger Johnson.

Roger Johnson didn't hit him directly like Ridgewell. He knew that he was no match for Li Yu if he fought physically, so he grabbed the shoulder of Manchester United No. 9 with one hand, and at the same time, he saw the right moment and swept with his foot.

Xiang Qiu was pulled over by Li Yu.

Roger Johnson's wishful thinking was all over the place, but Li Yu was not a fool. When his opponent grabbed his shoulder, Li Yu had already thought of a countermeasure. It doesn't matter if you don't want to make physical contact!

He had just pulled the football over, and it was impossible to pull it back. At this time, he could only use his body to protect the football.[

So Li Yu's body hit him sideways.

Roger Johnson looked at the football. Within his field of vision, his foot was quickly approaching the football. As long as he moved forward a little further, he could poke the ball away from Li Yu. At this critical moment, his foot stopped.

His whole body stopped.

He bumped into Li Yu's shoulder, and his chin reflexively tilted back to avoid hitting himself...

Li Yu turned around and completely squeezed Roger Johnson behind him.

After passing two people in one go, Li Yu finally reached the penalty area.

In the penalty area, Birmingham's players did not dare to make any harsh moves, but they had a numerical advantage. There were still 5 people concentrated in their penalty area. It was definitely an iron barrel formation.

Li Yu didn't have much of an angle when he wanted to kick. He had to pass at least one or two people before he could have a better shot.

Currently, there is only Li Yu, a Manchester United player wearing a sky-red jersey, in the entire penalty area. There are as many as five Birmingham players, plus Ridgewell, who was just knocked away, and Roger Johnson, who was blocked by Li Yu.

, that’s a total of 7 people!

No, there is another person in front of the goal! Hart is watching the scene in the penalty area nervously in front of the goal, ready to fly into the air at any time.

Li Yu moved again, his upper body began to swing, and his feet had already stepped on the bicycle. Just when everyone thought that Li Yu was just riding a bicycle to pass people.

But he discovered that they were just laymen. Li Yu suddenly moved and moved his right foot outward, trying to speed up the breakthrough.

Of course, Birmingham's defensive players would not let him pass so easily. One person immediately stood in the path where Li Yu wanted to dribble the ball.

Before the man could stand still, his eyes widened and he was completely dumbfounded.

It was Li Yu's back that rushed towards him. The moment he started dribbling the ball, Li Yu made a Marseille spin.

Football is like an obedient elf at Li Yu's feet, so lively and predictable. I really don't know what the elf will do next.

Dahn and Karl rushed up at the same time, planning to attack from a flank.

Karl came up first, and he rushed over from the front.

Li Yu can be said to be evasive now. Behind him is Roger Johnson. If he turns around again, he will probably take advantage of Roger Johnson.

But he had a way, using his left foot to dunk the football to the right with super quick reaction.

Karl rushed forward in one stride and immediately jumped into the air!

Li Yu jumped up and dodged Karl's outstretched leg, and jumped to the right.

His hand naturally helped Karl. Karl felt his shoulder being "touched" by Li Yu. He immediately covered his face and fell to the ground. Karl didn't even think about it. The referee kept staring at this place. If someone helped you by his shoulder, you covered your face and fell.

Hell, if the referee calls a foul, he probably won’t have to officiate the next game in the Premier League!

Ferguson is not a person who keeps his mouth shut when things go wrong, and this little trick is really not on the table.

The most important thing is that Karl's performance was so fake. If this happened at Old Trafford, Karl would probably be booed to death by the Manchester United fans at the Dream Theater.

This is Birmingham's home ground.

The game is still going on. It was just a funny little performance. How could Dan let go of this opportunity?

Seeing that Li Yu had just dunked the football over, although Karl's move just now was fake, it still had some effect in distracting Li Yu's attention. Dan thought that Li Yu was destined to be unable to avoid his kick.

So he kicked the football from the side.

Unexpectedly, when he was about to kick the football, a foot suddenly appeared in front of him!

It just happened to be stuck between the football and his foot!

Unable to hold back, Dan kicked Li Yu's right foot.

At that moment, Dan's heart stopped beating. He knew the meaning of this kick too well...

In the penalty area, no matter who is kicked like this, the next action will be to shout immediately, first to attract the attention of the referee, and then to slump to the end, covering the kicked foot, with a face full of pain. If you still have the spirit of performance

If the players roll a few times on the grass, the effect will be great...

Do you want to say that it was a flop? It was indeed kicked. If you want to say that it was not a flop, the fall here is a bit too exaggerated...

But Manchester United's No. 9 did not fall, nor did he make a sound. He did not even frown.

Taking advantage of Dahn's surprise, he knocked the football forward with his right foot!

His body shrank slightly, and he was like a wild horse running wild, speeding up and galloping past between the two of them in an instant.

At this time, Dan was still raising his hands in a gesture of surrender. This was not a surrender to Li Yu, but an expression of guilt, indicating to the referee that he had not committed a foul. Unexpectedly, Li Yu not only did not dive, but also raised his hands while he

, the body's center of gravity shifts back, temporarily leaving his own space, and puts the football out!

Birmingham's defensive players wanted to chase him, but they bumped into one of their own. They were huddled together and could no longer threaten Li Yu.

Li Yu, who broke through the encirclement, did not necessarily have an easy time. In the end, there was another person behind him, Barry Ferguson, and behind him was Hart.

As long as Li Yu's ball was a little bigger, it would go directly to the feet of the Birmingham defender and all the previous efforts would be wasted.

Not only that, he didn't even have time to adjust, the two sides were very close!

The penalty area was only very deep, so Li Yu managed to get out between Karl and Dahn. Without even having time to look up at the goal, he flew out and hit Barry Ferguson before he could block it.

football!

"A slightly hasty poke!"

Hart was concentrating, but he didn't expect Li Yu's hasty shot to be so sudden and fast. He quickly lowered his body, hoping to catch the ball. But he didn't know whether Li Yu did it on purpose or because he was blind.

The angle was very tricky. First it penetrated Barry's crotch, and the ball slightly changed its shape.

Hart wanted to catch the ball. He had no choice but to use his feet to block the ball when his body was already in the air. It was really funny to see Hart kicking his legs twice in the air. First, there was

The Birmingham players acted on their own and tried to deceive the referee. At this moment, the Birmingham goalkeeper started having epilepsy in the air again.

Even if Hart used his epileptic leg, he still failed to touch the ball. It was more or less a subconscious and natural reaction. Hart didn't think too much and tried his best to save the ball?

In the end, the ball was not saved, but the video of the epileptic leg became an instant hit.

The football rolled into the goal without any obstruction...

2:1, Manchester United overtook the score.

Ferguson was excitedly running back and forth in front of the coaching bench, still shouting excitedly: "This ball is so beautiful!"

If these words were heard by this reporter, they would probably be included in Ferguson's top ten classic quotes.

The old man said this before. After a Champions League game, when a reporter asked Ferguson how to describe the victory.

Ferguson said this: "This is a great victory!"

Obviously the old coach was as excited as that time.

After Li Yu scored the goal, he glanced at Hart and said nothing, turned around and left. The previous series of actions have completely proved it, so I need to say it again!

The subsequent game returned to dullness. Birmingham wanted to attack but did not have the courage to attack. After Manchester United tried several attacks, they did not increase their offensive investment. Since both sides are satisfied with the score, that's enough!

In the 80th minute, Valencia passed the ball and Evra's shot on the left side of the penalty area was confiscated by Hart. One minute later, Scholes' shot from 25 yards missed the upper right corner.

Until the 80th minute, Manchester United still dominated the game, but then a small accident occurred, which increased the suspense in the last few minutes. In the 84th minute, Fletcher was sent off for a tactical foul on Jerome with two yellow cards.

.

In the 85th minute, Brown's mistake almost gave him a gift, but Roger Johnson's shot was saved by Kutzsak.

In 6 minutes of injury time, Manchester United tried to break the deadlock on the field again.

The score was finally settled at 2:1. With one more game in hand, Manchester United regained the top spot in the standings with a 1-point lead over second-placed Chelsea.

Manchester United drew 2-1 away with newly promoted Birmingham City. The referee Clattenburg sent off Manchester United midfielder Fletcher in the 84th minute. This aroused Ferguson's rage. After the game, Sir Alex Ferguson fiercely attacked Clattenburg.

: "I haven't seen a more sloppy red card in a long time, absolutely ridiculous, really. I've been watching Clattenburg this season, he refereed the Arsenal and Tottenham game, and in that game

, his penalty scale is too lenient, it seems that someone has to hit someone with an ax before he takes out the card."

But just last night, referee Clattenburg officially hit back at Sir Alex Ferguson, "I was right, you were wrong. That was the second yellow card. He (Fletcher) was sent off before the end of the first half because

A foul (on Bowyer) was booked and then he committed a tactical foul on a Birmingham player (Jerome) in the second half."

However, in that league game, when Manchester United scored the go-ahead goal in the 63rd minute, Birmingham players also tried to block Li Yu's goal with a performance. It was the referee's clear understanding that enabled Manchester United to go ahead.

The top management of the Football Association confirmed that they are studying Ferguson's post-match conversation. A spokesman for the Football Association said, "Our U.L. committee will consider the matter." Because of his previous criticism of referee Willie, Ferguson has been criticized this season.

He has been suspended for 4 games (2 suspended) and fined 20,000 pounds. Sir Alex Ferguson still has two suspended suspensions.

With the temperature across the UK falling below zero, England has entered the coldest winter since 1981-1982, and heavy snow has stopped football. The Premier League broke a record last weekend, but it is not worth celebrating. 7 games were due to poor performance

The weather shut down, setting a record for a shutdown since the Premier League was founded in 1992. Last Saturday, bb's "Game of the Day" highlights embarrassingly could only show the highlights of two games between Arsenal and Manchester United. If it weren't for the schedule of these two teams,

It's tight, I have to hurry up and put it on the shelves, I'm afraid there won't even be a Premier League game to watch last weekend.

However, bb still found some interesting things. In order to ensure that the game could be held like this, Arsenal club staff took flamethrowers to the streets near the Emirates Stadium early on Saturday morning to ensure that the roads were clear and ensure that 3 p.m. that day

The match against Everton can go on as scheduled. Everton's home ground, Goodison Park, was equipped with a geothermal system in 1958, making it the first stadium in the country to be equipped with one. However, the problem is not the snow on the stadium, but the fans'

Safety.

In this regard, Arsenal coach Wenger said, "This is the price we need to pay. Today, we live in a 100% safe society and cannot accept any risks. If one of the 60,000 fans has an accident, you

Everyone will feel guilty. It is impossible for our society to accept the existence of even a small safety hazard." Last Wednesday, Arsenal's home match against Bolton Wanderers was forced to be canceled four hours before the start due to traffic problems. For this reason, Arsenal Club will

Pay the travel expenses for the Bolton fans who arrived after not getting the news in time.

Similarly, Ferguson should be thankful that Manchester United's visit to Birmingham can go ahead as scheduled. The League Cup semi-final against Manchester City that was originally scheduled to be played last Wednesday was delayed due to heavy snow. If the game continues to be delayed, Manchester United will face double matches every week in March and April.
