Chapter 269
Although Sheringham's goal was invalid, Manchester United's passion has been burned, and their offense is even more crazy.

Juventus's midfield is the strongest in Europe, and they are worthy of any team that focuses on the center.

But Manchester United do not go in the middle at all. All their offenses revolve around the two wings. Whether it is Giggs or Beckham, it is very difficult to deal with.

The most terrible thing is that Juventus's four midfielders are all central attributes. Zidane is arranged on the left in the formation. In fact, he drills in the middle when he has the opportunity.

As for Di Livio's main business on the wing, but he really can't do anything about Giggs except fouls.

The sideways can't contain the opponent's advantage, and Juventus is always passive when defending.

What makes people even more embarrassing is that their advantage in the middle is not obvious. Although Scholes and Butt are not tall, they are also very tough in the Premier League.

Coupled with the fact that Scholes' tackles always aimed at people's calves, several Juventus players were a little afraid of this stunned young man.

Manchester United played faster and faster, and the players rushed more and more fiercely. Juventus got 10 yellow cards in a row in just 2 minutes.

The first is a tactical foul by Didier Deschamps to defend against Davis, and the second is a tackle foul by Di Livio.

Not only did their fouls not make Manchester United's wide players have the slightest fear, but they made themselves unable to let go of their defenses.

Manchester United players continue to increase their offensive rhythm. They just want to fight and run with Juventus. Juventus is forced to follow their rhythm.

It's not that the old-fashioned Juventus can't control the rhythm. It's really that Manchester United left a lot of space when they failed to attack. It's not appropriate not to seize this opportunity.

But no matter how their offensive process is, how embarrassed Manchester United's defenders are, once Manchester United players get the ball, they will frantically invest in the attack.

On the coach's bench, Lippi leaned forward in his seat.Past coaching experience told him that Juventus only needs one goal to stop the opponent's crazy counterattack.

On Manchester United's coaching bench, Ferguson was also quietly chewing gum.He also understands that success or failure depends on one action.

In the next game, the side that scores first will have an overwhelming psychological advantage.

If Juventus score first, Manchester United's morale will inevitably be hit hard, and this game is basically explained.

If Manchester United scored first, the Juventus players must also be in pain. They ran back and forth with Manchester United, not to mention being exhausted, and the score was tied by the opponent.

The transition between offense and defense is for a goal that changes the balance of victory and defeat. This is simply Russian roulette.

After another 5 minutes of the game, Lippi watched the court anxiously.

In just a few minutes, Scholes hit the crossbar from long range, and Inzaghi's shot hit the post, and he felt a little weak in his heart.

In just a few minutes, he stood up and sat down, feeling uncomfortable no matter what.

As a professional Italian coach, he never thought that he would start a gambling-style confrontation with others on the football field.

Ferguson's face gradually turned rosy. Seeing Juve's "old boy" running back and forth with his own team's boys, he believed that even if he didn't score a goal, as long as he didn't concede a goal, Manchester United still had a physical advantage in the second half.

In the 37th minute, Manchester United opened the gap from the left, Sheringham retreated to get the ball, and gave the ball to Giggs.

The Welshman twisted his body and dribbled to the bottom line all the way. When he was close to the penalty area line, he made a strong cross. The ball flew across an aggressive arc and flew towards the back post. Sheringham jumped high and made a strong charge to head the ball towards the goal.
1 to 1!Manchester United equalized the score!

After scoring the goal, Sheringham ran back to observe the action of the referee, and did not celebrate until the opponent pointed to the center circle.

The Manchester United players swarmed up to surround the old gun. In such a terrible time, the main striker of the England team is still very reliable, and the goal that should be scored will definitely be scored, unlike some people.

Manchester United equalized, the fans shouted and sang wildly, and the Old Trafford stadium at night was like a boiling pressure cooker.

In the last few minutes of the first half, Juventus spent completely in torment.

After conceding a goal, the emotions are easy to shift in the direction of loss, but they have to endure the deafening shouts from the stadium.

United fans sang loudly, supplemented by loud high fives and rhythmic chants.

This kind of cheering is a very motivating drum for Manchester United players. For Juventus players, it is like being locked in a confined space, and there are people outside who keep beating. Every time they beat, it feels like someone is digging their hearts.

At the end of the first half, Beckham and his teammates happily walked into the player tunnel, and they couldn't wait to come back and beat their opponents.

The Juventus players looked grim, and they suffered both physically and mentally.

Throughout the first half, the two teams fought against each other for nearly half an hour, and both sides consumed a lot of energy.

Although the score was a tie, Manchester United scored the crucial 1 point and completely controlled the momentum.

As top professional players, the Juventus stars know what it means to be equalized by a crazy opponent.

In the dressing room of Manchester United, Gary Neville was blowing water with Sheringham: "That Inzaghi can't beat me at all. I heard that he has a younger brother. With his scumbag body, I am not afraid of the two brothers together!"

Sheringham smiled and glanced at Beckham next to Gary. He always felt that this kid had drunk too much. Could it be that he could produce his own alcohol when he was happy?
Beckham shrugged his shoulders with a smile, then pointed to his head, meaning that this buddy has a problem with his brain.

Sheringham laughed instantly, and Gary immediately turned to stare at Beckham, who was sipping water nonchalantly.

Gary Neville turned his head back, and continued to blow water with Sheringham, but just said a few words, he immediately turned to look at Beckham, still did not notice.

Beckham was not caught, and Gary continued to blow water. Beckham smiled and raised his head at Sheringham, saying "I'm right", and Sheringham deeply agreed.

Faced with the current situation, Ferguson seemed very calm. He has encountered too many similar situations in his career, and he is a master of chaos.

The emotions of the players are already high enough, and it is easy to get ahead. He only made a few work requirements: "First, maintain a high tempo in the second half. Second, be careful of their counterattacks, keep an eye on Inzaghi, and cause more offsides. Third, don't give Zidane a chance to get the ball."

Lippi asked his team not to compete with Manchester United players in physical fitness, and to focus on defensive counterattacks in the second half, regardless of how the opponent played.

But the sky failed, and within 5 minutes of the second half, Del Piero and Irvine both fell to the ground in the duel.

Ferguson quickly replaced the limping Irwin. Manchester United's tactics of leading the snake out of the hole tested the player's individual combat ability, so he did not hesitate to make a decision.

But Lippi hesitated for a moment and did not make personnel adjustments.

Regardless of the opponent's tactics, Manchester United continued to speed up.

Juve's Piero continued to send through balls to Inzaghi, but the latter fell into Manchester United's offside trap continuously, and their counterattack effect was not good.

On the other hand, Manchester United is very threatening whether it is a breakthrough from the side or a long shot from the center. In this way, Juventus will be beaten passively.

The Juventus players looked at the huge gap behind Manchester United every time they attacked, and unknowingly kept up with the opponent's rhythm.

Inspired by the home fans, Manchester United played faster and faster. The players all wanted to take advantage of the victory and beat their opponents in one fell swoop.

However, Juventus is still not quite used to this crazy offensive style of play, and the formation has become disordered.

Johansen dribbled the ball to the right, and when he was blocked by Deschamps, he turned around and passed the opponent. Deschamps had to foul behind and dragged him down.

Seeing the referee approaching, Deschamps suddenly remembered that he still had a yellow card in the first half, but it was too late to say anything now.

Two yellows turned into one red, and Juventus lost the most important piece of the puzzle in offensive and defensive conversion.

The morale of Manchester United who played one more man was even stronger. At one point, 6 of them participated in the attack in front of Juventus' penalty area.

Soon, Manchester United's chance came. During the scuffle, the ball flew to Scholes's side. The young player, who looked extremely thin, resisted Davis's squeeze, and turned around and dribbled the ball forward. He got a single chance.

Naturally, Scholes, who received such a gift out of thin air, would not waste it. He passed Peruzzi lightly and hit the ball into the empty goal from a small angle!
2 is better than 1!

After scoring the goal, Jiangtou ran all the way to the stands, and excitedly did a long-distance skating and kneeling.

Manchester United players flocked to Scholes, and Beckham kept shaking hands with his teammates and brushing Scholes' hair.

"Paul's turn is gorgeous. After the goal, the Manchester United players are very confident. David is encouraging his teammates. He seems to be changing his identity at Manchester United this season. I am very happy to witness the growth of a star!"

Manchester United's wonderful attack was not over. Phil sent a penalty from the left halfway line. Solskjaer took the ball with his back near the touchline. He leaned on the opponent's defender and waited for Giggs to come up to respond.

Giggs, who understood, immediately rushed forward, Solskjaer turned slightly sideways, and passed the ball from the opponent's defender who was close to his feet.

Perfect pass, perfect running position, Giggs received the ball, he didn't need to stop to deal with it, but could continue to take advantage of the speed of running.Manchester United's left-winger dribbled the ball into the opponent's penalty area like a bolt of lightning. No one could stop Giggs from running, not even the best defender in Italy.

Manchester United Flying Wing passed the two with ease, and finally shot vigorously from the corner of the small penalty area. The ball flew into Juventus' net at high speed like a shell fired from the chamber!
"3 to 1, Ryan's goal in the 65th minute has completely established the victory for the team, the Italian who is 2 goals behind will not have another chance!
Ryan was outstanding tonight and David was equally as good, limiting Zidane's play and keeping the opponent's attention.

The wings of Manchester United completely overwhelmed their opponents in today's duel. They are the key to the team's victory. We also want to praise Teddy and Paul for their contributions. The boys of Manchester United let the world see their courage! "

The excited Martin Taylor praised the Manchester United players all over in one breath, and hummed a ditty, completely forgetting that this was a national live broadcast.

But things were not as simple as he thought. Juventus played mainly Zidane at the last moment, and the French midfielder who moved to the center began to wreak havoc on the Manchester United midfielder. Neither Butt nor Scholes could restrain his performance.

Facing this guy with outstanding skills and a strong body, Ferguson decisively asked Beckham to mark the man and follow the Frenchman in the middle.

So an extremely interesting scene happened next. Beckham accompanied Zidane all the time. Anyway, Manchester United had one more person, and Juventus had no temper at all.

Zidane was very anxious. He found that he couldn't get rid of the opponent with explosive power, and his physical advantage was not obvious. The opponent actually used the man behind him to defend against him!

Then there was a scene that can only happen on a basketball court. Zidane used his body to support Beckham and reached out to his teammates for the ball. Beckham kept squeezing him behind him.

When the Frenchman got the ball, both of them were out of breath. With Beckham defending, he could only get the ball with his back.

Seeing that his teammates couldn't attack for a long time, Zidane simply went it alone. He ran with Beckham for 10 minutes and collapsed.

Seeing that the Frenchman was still launching a masochistic attack, Lippi simply replaced him.

You won't die if you lose a Champions League group match. When you abuse the food, you can play well and you'll be done.

Before the game was over, Lippi walked to Manchester United's coaching bench and offered his hand to Ferguson: "Your performance is great!"

Ferguson looked very decent and praised the opponent's coaching level.

At this time, no one noticed that the left fist of the Manchester United coach was clenched tightly.

Defeating Juventus is as difficult as climbing a mountain!
Juventus has been extremely terrifying in the past few seasons. Under Lippi's rule, they have reached the Champions League final in three years and won two championships, but their strength is indeed obvious to all.

Defeating such a powerful opponent is enough to make Manchester United and the entire English football world proud. This means that Manchester United has risen from the European giants. This youthful team is no longer a passive belly in front of the European giants.

"I think our Champions League mission has been completed!" Ferguson joked with the reporters after the game. "It's incredible to beat a team like Juventus. I didn't even imagine this wonderful result before the game started."

Ferguson was still brimming with excitement long after the game, celebrating with his players in the dressing room.

In an exclusive interview with Manchester United TV after the game, he said, "Please don't ask me how happy I am, I still can't digest this result. We did it all of a sudden, this victory is very important, it means we are now Becoming a team at the same level as the European powerhouses is one of our greatest advances in Europe.

This victory gave my players unprecedented confidence and gave us great confidence.We don't need to rely on special tactics to beat our opponents, we put into the fight with dignity, we created far more chances than our opponents, this is a huge improvement, and I believe the team will continue to improve until it reaches the top! "

Defeating Juventus, and defeating their opponents in an upright way of attacking and suppressing offense, made Manchester United truly enter the threshold of a strong team in the Champions League.Unlike the previous European Cup Winners Cup victory over the giants, Manchester United also gained the upper hand from the scene this time, and they won the full respect of European football.

On the day the game ended, the scenes of the fight between Beckham and Zidane were edited into highlights and played repeatedly. In the video, the Frenchman played football like a flower, and even kicked the ball on the heartthrob to bounce back, and tried every means to force the opponent to come up to grab the ball.

But no matter how he played, Beckham just remained unmoved, and hung on him when he broke through with the ball.

Some media even changed the background of the two people to a basketball court. As a result, there was no sense of disobedience in the picture of Zidane pushing for the ball.

Everyone did not expect that there would be an inexplicable sense of joy after the editing of the two men full of fighting spirit.

Even Nick of the Sun thinks the heart-throb's man-marking ability can keep opponents' shooting guards at bay.

Faced with fancy media reports, Beckham doesn't care. He is now focusing on studying the game video.

In the final round of the World Cup qualifiers, the England team and Italy will decide the only direct qualifying place in the group stage, and a fierce battle is inevitable.

As the competition approached, the media began to argue again. Should England defend and counterattack in the away game, play normally, or take the initiative to attack and defeat the opponent?

With a 2-point advantage in hand, the imagination of the English media has obviously been enriched.
