Chapter 161 Won't Walk Alone
Kesa's goal in the second half declared the game over, but Liverpool's player, Baozi Gerrard, was still running. Even if there was only a [-]% chance of scoring, he still wanted it.
Liverpool players were infected by him and fought until the last moment, receiving 3 yellow cards.Hargreaves and Alonso fell directly to the ground with cramps, and finally persisted.
And Finnan and Riise, who took on the heavy responsibility of wing backs, were almost collapsed, lying on the turf after the game, unable to get up at all.
Liverpool fans still singing, 'You'll never walk alone...'
Benitez is so depressed!The game is over long ago, it would be nice to save some energy to prepare for the next league match, what should we do now?The main force has collapsed, how will we play in the next league game?
Liverpool's next game is in the Carling Cup against Reading, a Premier League side.After the game against Manchester United, only 4 days off to continue to deal with the Premier League team, it is obviously not easy to pass.
In less than 3 days, Liverpool will face the challenge of Aston Villa in the league again.Villa is still very strong now, Abanglaho is on the rise, only lost one game this season, tied 2 games, temporarily ranked sixth in the league, very strong, even if Villa play away, Liverpool will not be easy .
Only 3 days after playing Aston Villa, Liverpool will go to France in the Champions League group stage against Bordeaux, which is also not easy.
After a desperate game, three consecutive games with a tight schedule, how can Liverpool pass the test with a slightly thin lineup?Such a schedule, even Ferguson is helpless.
In this game against Manchester United, Liverpool's general situation is gone and they are still desperately showing their glory.Especially under the leadership of Gerrard, all Liverpool players have exhausted their energy. Will there be time to recover in 4 days?
At least Benitez was very unhappy. He wanted to replace Gerrard, but Liverpool fans liked it!If the captain is replaced, Benitez is worried that the anger of the team executives and fans will be sprayed on him, so he chooses to let Gerrard do his best.
Who says Benitez doesn't know the world?Isn't that pretty good?
On the other hand, Manchester United, leading by 2 goals, the players began to press the rhythm, instead of running wildly, they just used the pass to control the situation, mobilize the Liverpool players, and let them consume more energy.
At the last moment, Manchester United would rather let Liverpool play under pressure than give them a chance to rest. As a result, the Liverpool players were so weak that they collapsed, and their shots were weak and without threat.And many Manchester United players still have enough physical fitness, and I feel that it is no problem to play another game.
Kesa observed Giggs' every touch of the ball, he was protecting himself and conserving his strength, and he immediately understood that he also obviously conserved strength in the second half.
Cristiano Ronaldo is also smart, he had an epiphany, he kept his strength, protected himself, hit a success rate, and found several good opportunities to counterattack, but it is a pity that Reina's brave performance failed to expand the score.
At the end of the game, the Manchester United players were in good spirits, and it was natural to leave the field. Liverpool players had to support each other to return to the dressing room.
The Liverpool fans were all moved, "This is our Red Army, fight to the last bullet, you will never walk alone..."
"Gerrard is very hardworking, that's great." Ferguson smiled and shook hands with Benitez, "Thank you Gerrard, you will have fun in the next game."
"Hmph! In the next game, we will work as hard as we can. In every game, we will try our best." Benitez gritted his teeth.
Ferguson seemed very moved, "Come on, keep working hard. There are many chances to work hard. I hope you have enough physical reserves."
The next League Cup game is away against the low-level league Crewe.
Ferguson made a full rotation of 10 people, and only Fletcher started against Liverpool, a scary rotation.Both Kai Sa and Ronaldo took turns and did not play.
Rooney came back and formed a striker line with Alan Smith and Solskjaer. He was equally powerful. Alan Smith showed his crazy side and scored 2 goals, overwhelming the suffocating Rooney.
Wayne Rooney also scored 1 goal, and the away game also passed with a score of 3:1. The next round will be against South Allianz, which is also a low-level team. Good luck.
Back in the league, Manchester United played away against Bolton, sticking to the traditional Premier League team, emphasizing physical confrontation, playing quite violently, mainly with long passes and lobs, with hard kicks, which is comparable to violence. Arsenal often fall into Bolton's Under the kick.
But Wayne Rooney came back, Manchester United's trident returned, once again set off a scoring whirlwind, Manchester United slaughtered Bolton away with 5 goals.
Of course, after Ferguson's beating, the combination of three young people was very low-key, and there was no celebration after scoring a goal, which attracted less firepower.
Going to the bank safely, Kaisa didn't score a goal, but added 3 assists.
At the same time, Liverpool took a 3-goal lead in the League Cup against Reading in the first half, but the situation changed suddenly in the second half, and they were conceded 3 goals in a row. At the last moment, with the header of the tall guy Crouch, they got through the danger.
In the whole game, the performance of Liverpool players was clearly divided into two time periods. In the first half, they had physical fitness and good combat effectiveness. In the second half, they lacked physical fitness and were beaten to death by the opponent.
Back in the league, against Aston Villa, the same lead in the first half, 3:1, the familiar score, Benitez was frightened, and at the beginning of the second half, he stationed troops in the backcourt, ready to defend to the death.
But the strategy failed, the number of people was useless, Villa still scored 2 goals, lost 2 points at home, and almost collapsed.
The next game is the UEFA Champions League, away to Bordeaux in Ligue [-], Benitez lost a lot of hair and kept scratching his head, Hargreaves had a knee discomfort and found it hard to hold on, it seems that a wave of injuries is about to erupt...
Manchester United played lightly and played against Copenhagen at home. Ferguson didn't pay attention to it and planned to send Pique and other young people.
The team has won 3 consecutive victories in the UEFA Champions League. Celtic and Benfica share 4 points, ranking second and third. Copenhagen has lost all three games and still has a poor 0 points.
Manchester United is about to qualify. As long as they win this game, they can qualify 2 rounds ahead of schedule. Therefore, Ferguson is more bold in using troops and has a larger rotation.
Copenhagen's away game against Manchester United is not for the game, it seems to be a tourist group to visit the scenery of Old Trafford.
They retreated across the board during the game and watched Manchester United attack.
In the end, with Kaisa's goal, Manchester United beat Copenhagen 1-0, won all 4 games, qualified ahead of schedule, and confirmed the No.1 record in the group stage.
Kesa scored 3 goals in 4 UEFA Champions League group matches, and his performance was extremely eye-catching.As long as Manchester United reaches the Champions League final, he can at least guarantee the top 5 Ballon d'Or awards, which is a leap in personal popularity.
On November 11th, the Premier League battle was rekindled. Manchester United played against Portsmouth at home. Mikel finally made his comeback.
Ferguson is very satisfied with the team's recent state. Players are suspended and come back to play an immediate role, and their performance is quite critical and can be cultivated.
The most important thing is that Kesa has already occupied the first place in the Premier League Golden Boot. In the assist list, Cesc Fabregas was also pushed behind by Keza.
