Chapter 379 The Cunning and Scary Crazy Li

The fourth goal of the game at Old Trafford is playing on the TV screens!
This goal once gave Ferguson the hope of winning the game!
Because this goal belongs to Manchester United!

In the 5th minute after Podolski's goal, perhaps infected and stimulated by the opponent's amazing free kick just now, Cristiano Ronaldo finally broke out——

on the TV screen.

Newcastle full-back Marcelo made another tackle when Giggs dribbled the ball inward and was about to shoot. When he took the ball away, he knocked down the Welsh magic wing Giggs, who was already seriously exhausted...

The referee Howard Webber awarded Manchester United a set kick in a good position, about 35 meters away from Newcastle's goal, and slightly to the left near the arc of the penalty area. This time it finally reached the killing range of C-Ronaldo's special skill "elevator ball"...

C-Ronaldo's iconic swing of the ball, and then stepped back three or four meters at a high speed, his legs were spread apart in an extremely pretentious posture, his hands were on his hips, he let out a sigh of relief, and began to prepare for free throws...

At this time, Manchester United's old captain Gary Neville and Vidic were still pestering the referee Howard Webber. They believed that Marcelo should have shown a yellow card for the collision foul just now, because the Brazilian defender had already received a yellow card before, so he should have been sent off a long time ago...

The Newcastle fans in the stands held their breath...

And Li Tongfan on the sidelines was also nervous at this time. Fortunately, he bet on Howard Webber's law enforcement style. The judge in black just verbally warned Marcelo, and then signaled the Manchester United players to go away...

Seeing this scene, Li Tongfan replaced Marcelo with Zhirkov without hesitation!
Ferguson sat on the sofa in the dim living room and watched the video of the game, his brows were slightly frowned, as expected...

At this time, C-Ronaldo on the TV screen took a free kick...

boom!
The football flew into Newcastle's goal without any suspense. It was different from the elevator ball sent by C-Ronaldo before. This time, it was an arc shot towards the upper right corner of the goal. The Newcastle goalkeeper obviously did not expect that Cristiano Ronaldo would abandon his signature "elevator ball". He was caught off guard and had no reaction...

This shot once again demonstrated the superior football IQ of the Portuguese emperor superstar!

Even at this moment, knowing that the game had already ended in Manchester United's defeat, Ferguson couldn't help exhaling a gentle arc from the corner of his mouth. Cristiano Ronaldo is his most proud signing in recent years...

Time passed and Ferguson watched the game quietly in the dimly lit living room!

When he saw that the long Russian full-back Yuri Zhirkov, who was replaced by Li Tongfan, brought Ryan Giggs down on the lawn for the fifth foul, he finally made up his mind——

Crazy Lee's tactics are very simple. Manchester United's two wide players can pass from the bottom to the bottom, but if they want to open the gap and pass the shot through a lateral cut, it is absolutely impossible. Even if they do not hesitate to foul and receive a yellow card, they must keep Cristiano Ronaldo or Giggs!
And the foul locations of Newcastle's two full-backs are also very clever!
As long as the Manchester United winger shows signs of cross-cutting, he will immediately shovel and absolutely prevent the opponent from actually cutting near the arc of the penalty area, because such a foul position is almost impossible for Manchester United to directly shoot a free kick. They can only create threats through free kick passing tactics...

But once the free kick pass tactic is used, it becomes the same as a pass from the wing!

Because Crazy Li has already calculated that for Newcastle, if Manchester United uses cross tactics, it is the least threatening attack method...

The reason is simple, there is no high center forward in Manchester United!
Although Wayne Rooney has a powerful impact, it is limited to ground coordination. When it comes to dealing with high balls, Manchester United has only two central defenders Vidic and Rio Ferdinand, and only high center forward Berbatov is left. Rooney at this time is still far behind in terms of headers...

It is a pity that Berbatov did not play in this game!

Vidic and Rio Ferdinand competed for a header in Newcastle's penalty area, which could not appear in the sports game, and the strict defense of Steven Taylor and others in the free kick made it difficult for the two Red Devils central defenders to find opportunities!

Therefore, even if Cristiano Ronaldo and Giggs can achieve a 100% one-on-one breakthrough success rate, they cannot find a point in the middle that can respond to their high-quality crosses. If they choose to cross, they will soon be blocked by Newcastle with foul tactics...

In the second half, Newcastle quickly consumed three substitutions, and two of them were actually used on the full-backs. In addition to Zhirkov replacing Marcelo, the madman Li Yong used German midfielder Khedira in the 67th minute. Replaced David Thornton, who was about to be dyed red, who also had a yellow card...

In the second half, the two teams had a total of 32 fouls, 21 of which were sent by Newcastle players, and at least 21 of Newcastle's 17 fouls were sent by two full-backs...

17 fouls, 4 full-backs and 4 yellow cards, this is the root cause of Newcastle's containment of Manchester United's wing attack!
Because apart from Cristiano Ronaldo and Ryan Giggs on the wing, the midfield defense composed of Darren Fletcher and Michelle Carrick cannot pose a threat to Newcastle due to lack of imagination...

And Marcelo's foul that gave Cristiano Ronaldo a chance to score a free kick was an exception, and it was also the only flaw left to Manchester United by the Magpies in the entire second half...

……

Soon, the last goal of the game at Old Trafford appeared on the TV screen——

Juan Mata received Alan Smith's oblique pass after getting the ball back to the central midfielder. After tearing up Darren Fletcher and Evra's pincers on the wing, he decided to rush into the penalty area. He passed the ball after passing Rio Ferdinand with a fake move. Michael Owen, who followed behind, almost pushed the empty goal...

3: 2!

Lore ball! !

As soon as the goal was scored, Old Trafford fell into silence...

Ferguson raised the remote control to turn off the TV. He didn't want to watch the next scene again, because the first time he saw it on the spot was enough to disappoint him. If he watched it again on video, the Godfather of the Red Devils recalled whether his heart would stop beating from his chest...

However, when he closed his eyes and leaned on the sofa, that scene couldn't help appearing in Ferguson's mind——

Alan Smith's cold but clean shovel and shocking long-range shot...

Juan Mata's dizzying dribbling through the wind and butterflies...

Michael Owen, like "Zonda", gallops back and forth without a trace, strikes and assassinates with lightning...

The scene that took place in the 85th minute of the Battle of Old Trafford was so clearly engraved in Ferguson's mind. There is no doubt that this was a wonderful and subtle counterattack. The team that he had worked hard for more than ten years showed no resistance when facing the sharp sneak attack that Madman Lee had been preparing for a long time...

To be honest, Ferguson has already begun to regret it at this time!
Juan Mata!

Alan Smith! ! !
These two people were sent by Manchester United to Newcastle, a newly rising opponent who is now capable of challenging Manchester United's ten-year hegemony in the Premier League!
Although Ferguson had always preferred to use derogatory words such as "discarding" or "throwing away", or "selling at a low price"...etc. to describe the relationship between these two people and Manchester United...but today he has to admit that perhaps "transporting" is more appropriate!
These two types of players that Manchester United absolutely needs most now seem to be the type of players that Manchester United needs most, but they were disposed of by him without hesitation two years ago and one year ago respectively... In Ferguson's coaching career for more than 20 years, the only player transaction that he regretted was the sale of Dutch central defender Stam. But today, perhaps two people will be added to this "regret list" at once—

Juan Mata and Alan Smith! !

When Owen's goal flew into the Manchester United goal guarded by Edwin van der Sar, Ferguson clearly remembered that the red Manchester United fan camp, which was still boiling like a pot of steaming hot water before that, dropped to minus 270 three degrees in an instant...

Old Trafford, which was full of attendance, gave every Manchester person an unforgettable sense of emptiness at that moment, because there were less than 73000 people reveling in the stands that can accommodate 15000 people!

That's Newcastle!
The light in the living room was still dim, Ferguson gently stood up from the sofa and folded the stack of newspapers neatly and put them in a cabinet that he specially used to sort out relevant materials...

To be honest, after thinking everything through, I realized that Madman Li’s tactics were not so mysterious, and even a bit risky. Cristiano Ronaldo’s curve ball goal in the second half was the price Madman Li paid for that adventure... However, Ferguson still couldn’t help but applaud this young opponent from China!
Because no tactic in this world is [-]% perfect!
In such a short period of time, Ferguson asked himself that although he could quickly discover the almost undetectable flaws hidden by a powerful opponent under Ru Chao's offensive, and come up with countermeasures, he couldn't be as good as Madman Li...

Of course, this does not mean that Ferguson has admitted that he is not the opponent of Madman Lee!
The tactic used by Madman Lee in this Old Trafford battle is nothing more than a trick of surprise. Success once does not mean that it will be successful next time...

If Manchester United's core midfielder Paul Scholes and center Berbatov are on the field in this game, then with Scholes' imaginative pass in the middle and Berbatov's strong support on the front line, even if Madman Lee resorts to such a strange move, he will definitely be defeated in the end!
Ferguson firmly believes in this!

The only thing that made him feel a little regretful and puzzled was why Paul Scholes and Berbatov were both normal and without any sign of injury within three or four hours before the game, but she had already included these two generals in the starting list, but why did one suddenly suffer from diarrhea and the other suddenly have a high fever before playing?
What's even more weird is that less than three or four hours after the game ended, the two guys recovered completely in a miraculous instant...

Maybe, Madman Li is really God's illegitimate child, his luck is really good!

With a trace of regret for the result of the game, regret for letting go of Juan Mata and Alan Smith, admiration but disdain for Crazy Li, Ferguson turned off the lamp in the living room, opened the door of the bedroom room and went to bed quietly!

……

"Master, I'm so fucking lucky!"

At this moment, in the distant seaside villa in the east of Newcastle City, Li Tongfan wiped his sweat on the Hummer GO-BOOK monitor with lingering fear: "My lord, luckily this time, two [destruction points] randomly caused Manchester United to be unable to play. The players turned out to be Scholes and Berbatov. If it weren't for Master Ferguson missing these two generals, even if I am a little clever, this game will be suspended..."

Still, with at least two games left before the system is fixed, what's next?
The game screen of the FM2009 system is displayed on the Hummer GO-BOOK LCD screen. Although the game simulation function has been canceled during the system stability maintenance period, other functions can now be used except for the points closely related to the system simulation function such as [Freedom Points]!

This time, the use of [destruction points] to destroy Paul Scholes and Berbatov's playing ability before the game is one of the cheating methods of Li Tongfan Li Tongfan's FM2009 system. In fact, this cheating saved Lao Li's life.

In the coming days of losing the "systematic game simulation function", Newcastle still has a few tough battles to fight——

UEFA Cup group stage against Serie A powerhouse Lazio at home!
The Premier League game at home against the Blues Chelsea in the post-Mourinho era!
Both games are very important for Newcastle, and the remaining [Destruction Points] in the system are no longer enough, and other related points are not very decisive for the outcome of the game... Therefore, Li Tongfan must find a way to defeat these two rivals like he defeated Manchester United!

Old Li thought about it, and the only solution for now is to search for the answer from the system database!
Now the system database of FM2009 has expanded to 45%, and many new functions are gradually revealed. It is time for Mensao Man to discover new ways to pretend.

Move the mouse and click to enter the FM2009 system database. After searching for half an hour, Li Tongfan suddenly saw the two new functions in front of him...

These are the latest pretentious weapons! ——
