Chapter 1925 Nightmare
Liu Feng's goal completely changed the course of the game as Arsenal took the lead against Manchester United once again at Old Trafford.

The madness of the Gunners fans in the stands continued, but the two teams on the pitch have regained their calm.

After Liu Feng and his teammates celebrated enthusiastically, he signaled to his teammates that they could go back. There was still a lot left in the first half of the game, so there was no need to be immersed in the joy of scoring a goal all the time.

And their opponent Manchester United also quickly recovered. The constant deflation of Arsenal in the past few years has brought nothing else. At least the Red Devils have reached a certain height in terms of their ability to withstand pressure.

"Okay, the two teams have re-established their positions on the stadium hill, and the game will resume immediately."

"Shh!"

As soon as Liu Jianhong finished speaking, the whistle blew. On the field, Van Persie pushed the ball in front of Rooney and then quickly ran towards the Gunners half-court. His enthusiasm for this game was quite high.

Manchester United quickly began to control the ball in their own midfield. With five midfielders, if they just want to control the ball at their own feet, Arsenal really can't stop for a while.

Therefore, during the period when the game restarted, the two sides entered a period of tension again, and there was no killing intent until the fourth and 10 minutes of the game.

When the Red Devils players had exhausted the Gunners players, they got stuck in time and launched the last attack.

"The attack launched late in the first half, United slowly pushed forward from the center of the field, and their steady style has been maintained since kick-off."

Starting from Phil Jones, the ball went all the way forward from the midfield, and soon came to the feet of Rooney, who was in the midfield of the team in this game.

As a very comprehensive player, Rooney's ability to organize in the midfield is not said to be the world's top level, but it is definitely enough to allow the team to operate without any problems.

Taking the ball across the half and relying on his own confrontation ability to scratch Ganso's interference like scratching an itch, he brought the Old Trafford stadium into a roar.

"Rooney's advance with the ball is very ferocious, like a tank. Haha, although he has started to gain weight in recent years, he has used this to find his new identity."

Zhan Jun praised Rooney very excitedly. Looking at the Manchester United midfielder who had moved as a whole on the pitch, at this moment, he really had the feeling that the Red Devils would definitely score in this attack.

Subsequent developments on the pitch did not go down well with United fans, however.

"Wilshere also double-teamed. Rooney didn't continue to hold the ball. He scored a point to the left and gave it to Valencia. Valencia who got the ball also inserted very quickly."

It was a direct confrontation between Valencia and Alves. The two players will be in contact with everything in the next moment, but Alves is more aggressive than Valencia.

"I wanted to pull the ball and dunk Alves, with amazing reaction speed, my thighs got stuck in the route, and the two collided directly on the right side of the Gunner!"

"Boom!"

At that moment, the ball got stuck in front of the two people's feet. After the dull impact sound, the two fell to the ground.

"The ball rolled off the touchline after the opposite foot and both people were clearly injured in the collision..."

Manchester United's offense stopped abruptly at this moment, but it made them even more helpless, so that the Manchester United players on the field began to complain around the referee that the referee awarded the sideline ball to Arsenal after communicating with the line referee.

This is because the linesman on the sidelines indicated that the ball finally hit the downed Valencia's leg and bounced off the sideline.

The team doctors of the two teams came up one after another to briefly check the conditions of their players. The young Alves was fine, but Valencia had to limped off the field to adjust.

So, when the game restarted with Arsenal throwing a throw-in, there was not much time left in the first half. The Gunners kept passing the ball in their own midfield, and the anxious Red Devils wanted it but couldn't get it.

"Shh!!!"

The sharp whistle finally came from the mouth of the referee, and the home team Manchester United had to enter the intermission with a score of 0-1.

Perhaps the only thing that can reassure Red Devils fans is that Valencia reappeared on the pitch before half-time and did not suffer any injuries. In this way, Manchester United can still look forward to the second half.

During this intermission, the professor didn't say much to the players. The team's overall thinking and game effect were all within his positive predictions, so the rest of the time was naturally for the players to rest.

"I played well in the first half, and continued to maintain it in the second half. If I was correct, I would expand the score and win steadily."

"Understand the boss!"

The short intermission ended after everyone responded to Wenger in unison. After the door of the locker room was knocked, the players got up together with their captain Liu Feng and strode out.

Old Trafford and Manchester United were once the nightmare of many Premier League teams, but with the departure of Ferguson and the rise of Arsenal, everything is just in the past.

Today, Arsenal and their coach Wenger are the opponents that no team really wants to encounter.

"Okay, the two teams reappeared on the court, and the second half of the game started immediately."

"Shh!"

In the second half of the game, Manchester United's formation and lineup did not change. Van Persie launched the ball with the whistle. Rooney quickly turned around after getting the ball and cooperated with his midfield teammates.

Faced with such a steady start from their opponents, the Arsenal team was not in a hurry. With a ball in hand, they quickly expanded their formation and only began to choose to press when they maintained enough tightness.

Naturally, neither side in such a confrontation would pose too much threat, and the ten minutes after the opening of the second half passed quickly like this.

In the end, Manchester United chose to take the lead. Their opponents can choose to end the game with one goal, but they can't. If they want to win, they have to do a lot of things at home.

"The ball was given to Rooney again and cooperated with Valencia's two-for-one pass. The two passed Ganso and Ronaldo, and went directly into the hinterland of the Gunners' midfield."

In the 8 minutes of the game, the most threatening attack after Manchester United's attack came.

When Rooney re-received Valencia's pass and faced Wilshere who was pounced on, he chose to pass the ball straight to Van Persie who was asking for it.

"Just poke the ball out, and Rooney connects directly to Van Persie!"

Under the eyes of everyone, Van Persie didn't touch the incoming ball, but chose to turn around and wipe it away with a swish while disturbing Vermaelen's sight.
