Chapter 323 Champion!champion!
Seeing that the ball had flown out of the sideline, everyone in Arsenal who had already reacted let out a breath of foul air.
The players of Manchester United stepped forward to surround the referee, indicating that this is a penalty kick, Rosicky fouled!
But the referee could see clearly that Rosicky kicked the ball first before bringing Hernandez down, so he resolutely dispersed the crowd.
Hernandez lay on the turf watching this scene, hammered the turf a little annoyed, and then jumped up.
Ferguson on the sidelines seemed very calm. He could see clearly because of the angle, and he also believed that even if Rosicky was really suspected of fouling this kind of ball, the referee would not call the penalty.
So although it was a bit regretful that Hernandez didn't seize this opportunity, he still shouted to his players to return to their respective positions as soon as possible and prepare to continue attacking!
Seeing that his head coach Ferguson had already spoken, the Manchester United players surrounded by the referee reluctantly dispersed.
At this moment, the fourth official on the sidelines held up a sign for a substitution. Manchester United applied for a substitution. No. 20 Fabio went off and No. 17 Nani came on!
Ferguson also noticed that Manchester United's frontcourt creativity was insufficient. Fabio's defense was tight here, so Nani was replaced to strengthen the wing attack, while the original right back Valencia retreated to the right back. position.
In fact, Manchester United's right side has always been a hidden danger this season. In this position, Neville, the original main force, is old. This season he spent most of his time in the stands due to injuries.
Neither Fabio nor his brother Rafael, who competed with him for this position, could make Manchester United's right flank stable.
It can be said that this is the only shortcoming of Manchester United's iron barrel defensive lineup.
In this regard, Ferguson can only hope to make adjustments in the summer transfer window.
Nani, who replaced Fabio, was very active. He used his sharp breakthrough to make Arsenal's defense chaotic. Unfortunately, the nickname "Nabu Chuan" was not for nothing. Nani ended up with an "aircraft gun".
This made many Manchester United fans who were full of expectations scold their mothers. How do you say that?
Except for the final shot, everything Nani did was perfect!
Subsequently, Wenger also began to make substitutions. He replaced Rosicky, whose physical strength had seriously declined due to frequent back and forth running, with teenager Wilshere.
The appearance of young people once again guaranteed Arsenal's impact, but compared to Rosicky's rationality when handling the ball, the small threat is still a little immature when handling the ball, often rushing into the crowd with the ball to end an attack Opportunity.
With the prolonged attack, the physical strength of the Arsenal players was also seriously exhausted, causing their offensive quality to begin to decline.
This also caused the offensive and defensive rhythm between the two sides to slow down. Many fans are considering whether to take the opportunity to buy some food so that their stomachs can last until the end of overtime.
At this time, Wenger, who was standing on the sidelines, glanced at Ferguson who was not far away from him, who was sitting there firmly, and he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
He didn't know if Ferguson was really not nervous, or if he was trying to show his players the presence of an old god, which had achieved the goal of stabilizing the morale of the army.
But he knew that for him and his team in the immediate situation, playing overtime meant that their winning percentage was constantly decreasing!
Because compared to the experience of Manchester United players in winning the championship, the group of people under him are easy to lose the chain at critical moments. This shortcoming is very fatal.
Therefore, after hesitating for a while, Wenger still sent a signal to the field to strengthen the attack.
On the other hand, Ferguson, who seemed to be concentrating on watching the game, saw Wenger's movements from the corner of his eyes, which made the old Scottish man very happy!
He is naturally also nervous, and he even attaches no less importance to this kind of game than Wenger in his heart. He has even considered that if he wins this game, he will announce his retirement after the end of the season!
For this reason, he even made a hint with the team's boss. Of course, the Glazer family thought that Ferguson was still the same as before, just talking.
Although Ferguson sits firmly on the bench most of the time, it is actually because only this position allows him to better observe the overall situation - including the actions of the opposing coach.
At this time, seeing that his old opponent really chose to strengthen the attack in the final stage of the game as he expected, Ferguson finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At least tactically, everything about his old buddy was calculated by him.
The next moment, Ferguson got up slowly and came to the sidelines. Taking advantage of a dead ball, he blew a loud slogan into the field, attracting the attention of most Manchester United players.
Afterwards, he turned slightly sideways, made a defensive movement with his left hand, but his right hand, which was covered by his body, clenched into a fist, and waved it secretly!
This was a tactical gesture that they had agreed upon before the game. Once he made this gesture, the players on the field understood that this was to make them counterattack more boldly, and launch a fierce attack as long as there is a suitable opportunity!
As for Arsenal's players, not much has changed.
Because Wenger's team has actually always been a set of tactics, he kept looking for players suitable for his tactics, and then kept the players adapting to it in training.
Therefore, many Arsenal players will become uncomfortable after leaving the Gunners system. It is because they have been polished into a part that is most suitable for this set of tactics.
Going to other machines and trying to re-polish it becomes more and more difficult.
But precisely because of this, Wenger’s tactical changes are much less. What he does is to let the players become familiar with this set of tactics, so that they can adapt to all changes on the court...
At this time, the time on the field has unconsciously come to an end.
Wenger on the sidelines keenly noticed the changes in Manchester United's players, and their aggressiveness resumed as it had just started.
But this is not the most important change. The most important change comes from Manchester United's offense. They have become more determined in the counterattack, even if it is a [-]-[-] situation, they will attack regardless of everything.
Although this has increased Arsenal's possession time again, Manchester United has completed several threatening attacks.
At this time, Wenger had some regrets in his heart, and his heart beat rapidly with every counterattack of Manchester United, making him faintly feel that playing overtime is also a good choice?
Thinking of this, Wenger turned his head and looked at Walcott, who was running and warming up on the sidelines, thinking whether he should replace these fast horses to strengthen the counterattack?
Just as he was hesitating, Manchester United's counterattack came again!
This time it was Park Ji-sung and Valencia's joint defense, and Nasri, who was a little weak in stamina, completed a beautiful steal.
Although Nasri wanted to pass the ball after realizing that something was wrong, his weak thigh slowed his reaction by half a beat, and Valencia took the first step to poke the ball out.
On the side, Park Ji-sung was already out of breath, but he still squeezed out the last bit of energy he had left, managed to catch up with the ball, and completed a pass.
The ball was passed to Carrick's feet, and almost everyone around him began to accelerate towards Arsenal's penalty area.
The next moment, the Arsenal players who were half a beat behind muster their strength to chase back.
Carrick held the ball and circled around to avoid Song's press, and also gave his teammates time to move.
Then, seemingly at random, he kicked the ball into the empty space on the left wing.
Just when many people thought it was a mistake, a black lightning arrived in the blink of an eye. It was Nani who was replaced as a surprise player in the second half!
Nani is very energetic at the moment, and he rushed to the ball in almost a few breaths.
Then he faced Sania's interception and did not pass the ball in a hurry. Instead, he feinted his upper body, kicked the ball behind Sania and accelerated again, trying to pass Sania with a one-man ball!
Although Sarnia also has a certain amount of physical exertion, compared with other full-backs, he does not insert assists frequently, so he still has a certain reserve of physical strength at the moment when he is focusing on defense.
Seeing that Nani ignored him so much, Sania was also a little annoyed. He quickly turned around on the spot, and tried to stop Nani with a card while moving his body sideways.
But Nani is also a little aggrieved at the moment, because with the joining of Valencia, his game time has dropped rapidly, and there are even rumors that Ferguson has taken a fancy to Ashley Young of Aston Villa and is going to replace him !
And in such an important Champions League final, he also failed to start!
This kept him simmering with anger, so in the previous few opportunities, he deliberately ignored his teammates and chose to act recklessly.
This time, facing Sania's defense, the frequency of Nani's feet suddenly accelerated, almost like a teleport, flashing past Sania's side!
This sudden scene surprised Sania a little. He subconsciously pulled Nani's jersey, which slowed down Nani's speed, but soon Sania let go again, because he was afraid of being late for a red card. .
Although this block successfully slowed down Nani's speed, Nani soon accelerated to rush towards the ball again, and Sania followed him not far behind, and also tried his best to chase back.
While running towards the ball, Nani glanced back at Sania who kept chasing after him, and he had a judgment in his mind:
Once he stops with the ball, Sagna will be able to catch up quickly.
In that way, the other players of Arsenal will also return to the defense, so that the chance of this counterattack will be wasted! ~
Thinking about how Ferguson would blow the hair dryer after the game, Nani couldn't help but tremble, so this time, he chose not to stop the ball and directly complete a cross!
"Oh!"
Although Sagna did not worry about Nani's possible fake action and completed a flying block, he was still a step too slow, and the ball almost flew out of his toes.
Sania subconsciously turned his head to look at the ball!
In the middle, Rooney and Hernandez have already completed the double-team. Although they are followed by two Arsenal defenders, they are followed by two Manchester United players, and behind them is Arsenal who is chasing back. Na players!
At this time, Rooney was standing in front of the goal, facing this low cross, it seemed that he wanted to grab a shot.
Vermaelen struggled a bit in the confrontation with Rooney. Although he used his hands and feet at the risk of fouling, he did not grab a favorable ball for a while.
Seeing this, Julu behind him couldn't help but take a step forward. Once Rooney shoots or passes back, he can complete the second defense.
But Rooney, in the blink of an eye, completed a shot with his heel very deftly!
Fortunately, Szczesny was well prepared, and the ball was kicked a bit positively, and he held it firmly in his arms.
Seeing this, Rooney couldn't help but shook his head annoyed, perhaps it would be a better choice to leave it to Hernandez?
But before he could think about it, a voice suddenly sounded in the stadium:
"Pass the ball!!!"
Rooney raised his head when he heard the sound, and instantly saw the scene that made him and all his teammates panic!
I saw that Mu Jianfeng was already standing on the center line, holding up his hands to ask for the ball. It seemed that he was ready to accelerate at any time!
"Oh!"
Just when everyone was still surprised, Szczesny, who reacted immediately, got up quickly, met the ball with a big foot, and kicked the ball to the frontcourt!
