Chapter 199 The Dust Settles

Pires, who played in the second half, made a sudden effort and cut inside facing Neville.Johnson was afraid that Pires would shoot, so he stepped forward to grab it, but Pires just made a fake shot.But at the same time, he suddenly led the ball with his left foot and passed between Neville and Johnson.

This beautiful breakthrough completely penetrated Manchester United's defense.

This breakthrough is related to Johnson's failure to stand still and whether he blocked Pires.Of course, with Johnson's strength, he shouldn't be broken through so easily.The biggest reason is that Johnson lacks physical strength and his footsteps are too heavy to keep up with Pires.

After Pires passed through, Johnson immediately reacted.Ready to come over and defend Pires, don't let him have space to shoot.

But Pires made another false move to shoot, and then pushed gently into the middle.

"Miku... Keen sticks close to Miku... Miku shovels!"

Keane squeezed Miku next to him, and fortunately Miku was in great shape.Otherwise, Keane would have already squeezed out other players.But even so, Miku couldn't get the ball smoothly.So Miku couldn't shoot normally, so he fell down to the side and shoveled hard.

Pires' pass was sudden, and so was Micoud's tackle.Moreover, Miku's shovel shots flew out very irregularly.

"Miku!"

"Beautiful! Blackburn has overtaken the score now. Two to one, and now the end of the game, even with extra time, there are still less than 10 minutes. This goal completely kicked the Manchester United champion away."

Indeed, this ball kicked away Manchester United's championship.Ferguson on the sidelines blushed and cursed for no reason, stomped his feet fiercely, and then returned to his bench.

In the fast pace of the second half, after nearly 10 minutes, Manchester United's players were completely unable to run.It has always been relying on the belief of not admitting defeat to survive until now.Fortunately, it was Manchester United, if it was replaced by other teams, it would have collapsed long ago.

Blackburn is full of young players and has played a lot less than Manchester United.Coupled with this goal, everyone is now full of high morale and vigor.In addition, Blackburn's usual style of play is to pass the ball non-stop. It is even more difficult for Manchester United to get back.

After George saw the goal, he knelt on the sidelines and kept shouting.

Two to one, Blackburn's efforts for a season will finally pay off.Once able to participate in the UEFA Cup, then Blackburn can sweep away the bad luck of these three seasons.Regain the confidence of the strong team.

Ferguson was unwilling to admit defeat. Although there were less than 10 minutes left in the game, it was not Manchester United's style to admit defeat.He quickly replaced Solskjaer, a talented substitute.Seeing Solskjaer play, George knew that Manchester United was going to play the simplest long pass.

George immediately let Pires on the left retreat, clinging to Beckham.Then also let Hargreaves move to the right to help defend Giggs.Of course, Deco has to recover, control the rhythm of Blackburn's game from behind, and by the way, prevent Scholes from inserting behind.

Even Klose was put in front by George, harassing Keane.

Only Duff was placed at the front because Duff was the fastest.Can hold back Manchester United's defense.

Manchester United is indeed as George thought, because they are not physically strong enough to play that kind of midfield cooperation.The kind of off-ball running that Manchester United is proud of has no physical strength, and can only be a long pass.Put all your hopes on the front striker.

But at this time, Blackburn is united as a fortress, how can it be broken by two or three feet.In addition, as soon as Blackburn has the ball, they will control the ball in midfield to kill Manchester United's morale.The more anxious Manchester United is, the less chaotic Blackburn can be.

But George still can't rest assured that Manchester United is a team that can come back at the last second.Therefore, George has always shouted at the players on the court to make them pay more attention.

Except for some important moments during the game, George will not shout loudly on the sidelines at other times.Instead, he stood quietly on the sidelines and watched the game.But now is the most important game of the whole season, and George can't sit still.

Not only George, but many people on the bench can no longer sit still.

The Blackburn fans at Ewood Park held their breath, waiting for the final moment.

"Dududu-"

The referee's final whistle was the most enjoyable whistle ever heard by George and Blackburn fans.Just as the referee blew his whistle, all the players on the field embraced and celebrated together.The Manchester United players next to them sat on the field slumped.

They know that this year's Premier League champions are completely flying.

The Blackburn players ignored the frustrated Manchester United players next to them.Most of them have no experience in the European League. It is absolutely exciting for them to be able to participate in the UEFA Cup in their first season in the Premier League.

"The League Cup! The League Cup!"

If you put it on teams like Manchester United and Arsenal, playing in the UEFA Cup is a failure.With the restructuring of the Champions Cup, the influence of the Champions Cup is growing, while the influence of the UEFA Cup is decreasing.Slowly, Manchester United and Arsenal are now more powerful in the Premier League, and they value the Champions League more.

But putting it on Black itself is different.This is the UEFA Cup. Blackburn, who was able to relegation last season, would have thought that after the end of this season, Blackburn would be able to qualify for the UEFA Cup.

The entire Ewood Park has not imagined being able to play in Europe for a long time.

"Two to one, we defeated the mighty Manchester United. We are going to the UEFA Cup, and this is just our beginning. Because we have George Levy!" The live commentator was also excited and began to talk excitedly.

Hearing the live commentator's excited commentary, the fans began to react.

"George Levy!"

"George Levy!"

Everyone suddenly understood that Blackburn's development this season was entirely due to the young George Levy in front of him.

George held up his hands to receive their cheers.I was also very excited.I was still in the League One last season, and this season I became the head coach of the Premier League.Next season will be able to lead Blackburn to the UEFA Cup.

No matter how weak the UEFA Cup is, it is still a European competition.

"The young coach Levy has just turned [-]. He will lead Blackburn to the UEFA Cup soon. It is estimated that George will become the youngest head coach in the UEFA Cup. The changes George has brought to Blackburn this season are still very obvious .The most obvious of course is Blackburn's results."

"But the bigger change that George brought to Blackburn is an alternative way of playing with English football. And the confidence he brought to Blackburn players." Martin Taylor began to summarize as if the season was over. Same season.

"Yes, after the 4-[-] loss to Arsenal, everyone was counting the days when George would be dismissed from class. But George stubbornly got out of the shadow of failure and was able to rank No.[-] in the Premier League at the end of the season. If it wasn't for the season After the downturn at the beginning, now there will be one more Blackburn in the Premier League title."

When the score was zero to eight, Andy Gray even regretted the loss of another young coach.At that time, no one was optimistic about George. Everyone thought that the young local coach George was about to suffer the biggest setback in his coaching career.

But no one thought that Blackburn's top brass supported George.It also allowed George to survive the most difficult days.

"There is no need to regret this, next season will be much better."

Indeed, next season will be much better.There are not only Manchester United and Arsenal, but also Chelsea, which has achieved stable performance in recent years, of course, Liverpool, the number one giant in England, and Leeds United of Blackburn, which has started to emerge this season.

"Unfortunately, Coach Ferguson." After celebrating, George thought Ferguson had left.But turned around and found that Ferguson was still standing there, so he went to shake hands.

Ferguson smiled, but there was something elusive in that smile.

"George, Arsene Wenger should award you a certificate."

George understood what Ferguson meant.At the beginning of the season, George lost [-]-[-] to Arsenal, which not only gave Arsenal enough goal difference, but also gave Arsenal, which was already in excellent form at the time, a chance to make a leap.Since winning Blackburn, Arsenal has swept through all the powerful players like a broken bamboo.

At the most important moment, Blackburn even defeated Manchester United at home, which indirectly helped Arsenal win the championship.

George also smiled, of course George understood.This season should be a very great treble season in Manchester United's history, but it is precisely because of the unstable factor of George that this season's league title went to Wenger's hands by accident.

George shook his head, Wenger, Wenger.I robbed you of the FA Cup, as well as Ljungberg, Pires and other players, and this year I will give you a more important league title, which is quite interesting.Of course, George can't guarantee that he won't dig more players from Arsenal in the future.

"George. We still have a chance to meet next season." After speaking, he left.

George actually didn't know why Ferguson stayed, was it just to say a few words.Anyway, it is inexplicable.

But George was not interested in those. After George turned around, a smile appeared on his face immediately.This moment should be celebrated, no matter what.This season, Manchester United's league championship was kicked to Arsenal. In a few years, Manchester United and Arsenal will hand over all your champions.

As soon as George turned around, he found Hendry walking over with a smile.In the second half of the season, Hendry sat more on the bench.

"Colin, don't leave next season. How about staying and helping me." Hendry is already 33 years old and will soon be 34 years old.Playing in the Premier League is already reluctant, but George is unwilling to give up Hendry.

Keep Hendry and let him help George manage the locker room.With a meritorious player like Hendry, his influence in the locker room cannot be ignored.

"Okay, George. But you have to lead Blackburn and achieve good results." Hendry said loudly in George's ear.

Hendry was also excited.As the main defender when he won the Premier League that year, his feelings for Blackburn are unparalleled.

"Colin, trust me."

　The leader came to inspect, we young people are exhausted.Now I just took some time to upload a chapter.

　　The next chapter may be updated later.

　　I am sorry.
