Chapter 228
Chelsea scored a goal, which is not good news for Ferguson, but Ferguson still showed a very calm look.

"Isn't it just a goal? Me! The great Sir Alex Ferguson has never seen anything."

However, after 3 minutes, Ferguson couldn't pretend anymore.

After Chelsea's goal, Manchester United kicked off from midfield.

The ball is handed over to Scholes in midfield, the ball transitions to both sides, and will eventually return to Scholes' feet.

Manchester United play a single striker, so there are not many opportunities to penetrate in the middle, and it is difficult to break Chelsea's defense with a simple direct pass.

Therefore, the ball still needs to be passed to the feet of Ronaldo or Park Yisheng, and the two cooperate with the midfielder to infiltrate.

Scholes passed the ball to Ronaldo in the frontcourt. Ronaldo held the ball with his back against Terry. There was no good way, so he passed the ball back to Carrick in the middle.

Carrick passed the ball to Rooney, who received the ball forward in the middle, and Rooney passed the ball to Ronaldo, who was at the front of the penalty area on the left.

The three made a triangle pass, and Ronaldo caught the ball and faced Terry, so that he would be more comfortable handling the ball.

Ronaldo's back-to-back ability is not strong, and he personally doesn't like to take the ball with his back.

Facing Terry, Ronaldo chose to cut inside, took the ball a few steps laterally and chose to shoot.

Due to the wet and slippery field of the Old Trafford Stadium, Ronaldo's supporting foot slipped when he shot and sprained his ankle.

Ronaldo's shot was not scored, Carvalho passed the ball to Barack, and Barack saw Ronaldo lying on the ground in pain, he did not choose to attack, but kicked the ball out of the sideline.

Ballack still has a professional spirit. There are players injured on the court. Turning the ball into a dead ball is a manifestation of sportsmanship.

After Ronaldo fell to the ground, Rooney and Park Yisheng hurried over, wanting to know the situation of Ronaldo as soon as possible.

The two helped Ronaldo up, and other Manchester United players also rushed to the scene.

Ronaldo tried it, but his left foot couldn't touch the ground. It seemed that the sprain was not light.

The thing that Ferguson was most worried about before the game still happened. He was really afraid of something.

The referee came to Ronaldo to confirm whether Ronaldo could continue the game.

"How about it?"

Ronaldo shook his head, saying that he could no longer continue playing football.

The referee immediately signaled the team doctor to enter the field and took Ronaldo out of the field.

Ferguson waved to Giggs on the bench, and Giggs ran to Ferguson.

"Hurry up and get ready to play!"

After Ronaldo was carried off the field, the game continued. Manchester United temporarily challenged with ten men. Nani sent the ball from the touchline. Return the ball to Chelsea.

After Park received the ball, he kicked the ball out of the baseline and Chelsea got the goal kick.

Under normal circumstances, returning the ball to the opponent will choose the method that is most beneficial to one's own side, so the players will kick the ball to the opponent's half.

This is actually a kind of inertial thinking. No one will be stupid enough to kick the ball out of their own baseline and let the opponent get a corner kick.

Two minutes later, Ryan Giggs came on to replace Ronaldo.

At this time, Ferguson was full of thoughts. Winning or losing this game seemed to be less important. Ronaldo's health was Ferguson's most concerned issue.

Ferguson sat on the sidelines, anxiously waiting for the news of Ronaldo's injury. If Ronaldo is reimbursed for the season, it will be a bad news for Manchester United. How should Ferguson face the next three-line battle.

After Ronaldo left the field, Ferguson became more and more angry. What kind of positional warfare and injuries cannot be avoided by using tactics.

So, Ferguson gave a message to the players on the Manchester United field.

"All attack, all defense!"

Manchester United has never been afraid of any team in attack, so what about Chelsea.

One word.

Attack!

Being timid will only bring more trouble to the team.

After receiving Ferguson's instructions, the Manchester United players immediately changed their tactics.

Manchester United launched an attack from the backcourt. The game has progressed to the 60th minute. The players of the Manchester United team have gradually adapted to the field, and things like passing mistakes have also decreased.

Scholes split the side to Park Yisheng, who dribbled the ball past Ballack and chose to cut inside when facing Ashley Cole.

Ashley Cole followed very closely. Park Yisheng could only dribble the ball horizontally all the way. When he was in the middle, he met Deco. Park Yisheng continued to change to the left and passed Deco.

At this time, Rooney advanced forward, Park Yisheng kicked the ball straight into the penalty area.

The ball was passed very well, and Rooney shot directly inside the penalty area. Terry failed to stop Rooney's shot.

Rooney's shot hit the far corner of the goal. Cech made a misjudgment. He thought Rooney would hit a low ball. Unexpectedly, Rooney hit a volley.

I saw Cech fell to the ground, made a standard action of throwing a flat ball, missed, and the ball flew into the gate guarded by him.

1:1
Manchester United equalized the score.

This is how Manchester United should be, this is how Manchester United should play.

Tactics can sometimes have unexpected effects for a team, but not every tactic can make the team play better.

Manchester United's players are accustomed to Manchester United's consistent tactical play. Ferguson suddenly asked Manchester United to play positional warfare, which precisely limited Manchester United's ability.

The Manchester United team is not good at positional warfare. Doesn't playing positional warfare mean playing to their weaknesses?In a football game, you should give full play to your strengths.

Therefore, after Ferguson decided to play a total attack and total defense tactic, Manchester United scored a goal.

The Old Trafford Stadium, which had been deserted for an hour, finally ushered in the first cheers, and the hearts of the fans warmed up.

In the Christmas game, fans braved the severe cold to come to Old Trafford to support Manchester United. Manchester United should also play a game worthy of the fans.

Ferguson sat on the sidelines, Manchester United's goal did not make him ecstatic, his mind has always been on Ronaldo.

As a head coach, his vision is not just a game, but a season. Therefore, for Ferguson, he has too many issues to consider.

Last season, Manchester United lost in the semi-finals of the Champions League. This season, the introduction of Park Ilseng is aimed at this year's Champions League final.

If Ronaldo is reimbursed for the season, then Manchester United is likely to follow the old path of last season. Without Ronaldo, Manchester United's performance in the Champions League may not be bad, but it will definitely not be good.

The arrival of Park Yisheng has improved the offensive ability of the Manchester United team, but it has to be admitted that the current Manchester United team belongs to the Manchester United team of the Ronaldo era.
