Coaching legend

"Yang, he passed Anderson... Yang, his technique is excellent, he passed Anderson easily. Anderson is more like a wooden stake in front of Yang. If you only watch this game, you don't know who is the Brazilian player between Yang and Anderson. Yang wants to break in, Vidic comes out to defend."

"Vidic is already in position."

"... Yang, pass the ball!"

"Yang's pass went to the right... It's Maicon, Maicon, cross!"

"Drogba, Drogba bypassed Ferdinand. Header!"

"Good!"

"Two to zero, two to zero! Drogba scored the second goal, Blackburn leads Manchester United two to zero."

"Blackburn's attack this time is excellent. Yang Feng first led Vidic out, then transferred the ball. Drogba's header bypassed Ferdinand and reached Vidic's defensive position and jumped to the top. This is a beautiful tactical cooperation."

Motson explained in a rush.

Motson spoke very quickly. But it was extremely clear.

2-0, Mortensen really didn't expect it.

George jumped up excitedly this time. Damn, two goals were scored. Hahaha!

Got it! Definitely got it!

Ferdinand looked at Drogba who was celebrating there, his face gloomy. Angry.

When Ferdinand won the Champions League with Blackburn, Ferdinand was the absolute main force in the backcourt. And Drogba was still a substitute for a thousand years. Because Klose was famous and one of the best strikers in the world. And Drogba was Klose's substitute.

Although he had many opportunities to play, in the eyes of Ferdinand and other main players, he was just a clumsy big guy.

In Blackburn, Drogba and Ferdinand's status were very different.

But the stupid wood back then has become the best center forward in Europe. Even in the club, he has surpassed George's favorite Klose. In terms of the number of appearances, or in the use of some key games, Drogba has begun to surpass Klose.

Angry.

Ferdinand was too frustrated in this game. The midfield defense was not strong, which put Ferdinand and other defenders under great pressure.

Ferguson frowned.

Losing two goals at home is really a bad result. Even if the score is reversed, losing two goals at home will be a very difficult game for the second round. What's more, can the score be reversed in this state?

George, George.

Ferguson knew that he had guessed wrong. In the pre-match arrangement, he lost to George.

He was really careless.

I always thought that Blackburn was so turbulent this season. It would definitely involve George's energy and would definitely cause Blackburn's combat power to be greatly damaged. Unfortunately, I didn't expect that Blackburn was so positive.

"Everyone did a good job."

After entering the locker room, George praised his players.

2-0 in the first half, George was really satisfied.

"That's it. Even if you leave the team tomorrow, you have to concentrate on playing today. This is professionalism." George gave a thumbs up, praising these players, and then said: "Ferguson said that I will take over his job. Manchester United fans also agree. In this case, I will prove my strength in front of them and let them see my strength?"

Just after George finished speaking, the players below laughed.

"Let's get back to the point. We are now in an advantageous position. As long as we beat Manchester United, we can enter the Champions League final again. Finals, I have never failed in these important cup finals so far."

"For me, entering the final is the championship!"

"Do you want to win a Champions League championship?"

George clenched his fists.

"Yes, yes, yes! Champion, champion!"

At the beginning of the second half, Manchester United did not attack fiercely, but was more cautious.

This is definitely not because Manchester United wants to stabilize. It's because Ferguson really can't figure out George's thoughts. After fighting with George for more than ten years, Ferguson claims to know George very well. But when you feel that you have touched George's thoughts, you find that George's thoughts are different.

Therefore, at the beginning of the second half, Ferguson wanted to see what George thought.

This is very passive.

But Ferguson had no choice.

Although both teams have been financially tight in recent years. But George has built a new Blackburn after years of hard work. It is very strong. This group of players in Blackburn makes all the European giants jealous.

Especially Blackburn's strength in the midfield is completely superior to Manchester United.

Therefore, this is helpless. Ferguson must first find out George's thoughts before he can strike back.

Less than ten minutes into the second half, Ferguson had already seen it.

But after seeing it, Ferguson smiled helplessly. Not only that, Ferguson felt that he was making a fuss. George, a utilitarian coach, is now leading 2-0, and he must be defensive and counterattacking.

But it can be seen. But it is even more helpless.

Blackburn is originally a defensive counterattack team. Defense is something they practice every day. In addition, now they are leading by two goals, their defensive counterattack must be very determined.

It is not so easy to break through Blackburn's defense.

George showed his white teeth and couldn't help but smile.

George is not a fool.

In the first half, George seized the weakness of Manchester United's midfield and attacked Manchester United midfielder Anderson and Giggs, who were weak in defense. Then he switched back and forth between the wing and the middle, and before Manchester United players could react, he was able to score 2-0 with lightning speed.

But in the second half, it was not so easy to achieve such an effect.

Ferguson will definitely make adjustments in the second half.

Even if there is no substitution, some adjustments will be made to make up for these loopholes. Ferguson is absolutely the best in the world in this regard. So George chose the simplest method in the second half.

Now it is 2-0.

The best way is to play your counterattack.

Defense is not passive, defense is to get better scoring opportunities. In the world of football, among the goals scored, counterattack goals and set-piece goals are the most common ways to score. The number of such goals far exceeds the goals scored in the step-by-step positional battle.

After seeing George's plan, Ferguson began to attack.

But the effect was average.

George is a coach who started with defense. He is very good at all kinds of defense.

Facing Manchester United now, George used the most passive defensive means. That is to pile up the players in the 30-meter area in front of the goal and defend with numbers.

And Manchester United now lacks breakthroughs.

In particular, the ability to break through the wing is insufficient, and Blackburn's defense cannot be pulled apart. Because Blackburn players are all stuck in the 30-meter area, there is no space left for Manchester United.

Seeing no progress, Ferguson began to make substitutions.

In the 61st minute of the game, Ferguson replaced Park Ji-sung with Tevez.

Ferguson wanted to use Tevez's positivity and breakthroughs in the frontcourt to change the situation on the field. Unfortunately, the situation of the game did not change at all.

The main reason is that Manchester United players can't hold the ball now.

In the midfield, Giggs should feed the ball to the front. George used Alonso to tightly wrap around Giggs. Giggs is old, but the older he gets, the more demon he becomes. Giggs's skills and passing are becoming more and more exquisite.

Unfortunately, he is old after all, and his physical functions are beginning to decline. This is a normal thing. After all, 35 years old cannot be compared with 25 years old.

Alonso kept pushing him with his body, not giving Giggs a loose space. Giggs, whose physical function declined, could not withstand Alonso's collision at all.

Without physical conditions, all skills are fake.

Giggs could not hold the ball, and of course could not pass the ball. Therefore, the support for the front court was not enough.

George was always on defense.

Just defending.

As for whether it looked good or not, it was not within George's consideration.

Ten minutes passed in the game.

Ferguson made another move. This time Ferguson replaced Anderson with Berbatov. Berbatov is very expensive, but unfortunately too lazy. After arriving at Manchester United, he was praised as a cool brother. He was so different among the active Manchester United players.

So he has never been taken seriously.

Manchester United's formation has become Rooney on the left, Ronaldo on the right, Berbatov and Tevez as forwards. Fletcher and Giggs are in the midfield.

Manchester United has changed, but George is still sitting on the Diaoyutai.

Rooney and Ronaldo are both very strong.

Unfortunately, their strength lies in their comprehensive ability. But when it comes to breaking dense defense, neither of them is a very good player. Their ability to break dense defense is not as good as the combination of Giggs and Beckham in their peak period.

Rooney and Ronaldo are relatively poor at breaking through some small spaces.

In the 80th minute, Ferguson made his third shot.

This time Ferguson replaced Giggs with Nani.

Although Nani's cooperation with the team is not very good. But his personal skills are excellent, and he is better at breaking dense defense than Rooney and Ronaldo. Nani was placed on the right by Ferguson, and Ferguson expected Nani to use his skills to tear open the Blackburn defense.

Even if it doesn't work, it's good to get a free kick.

But in the end, it didn't succeed.

"Beep, beep--"

"The referee blew the final whistle. Blackburn beat Manchester United 2-0 away in the Champions League semi-finals. It can be said that Blackburn has already stepped into the Champions League final."

"No one expected it."

"Many people have forgotten what kind of team Blackburn is. This is a very magical team. Of course, many people think that Blackburn rose to prominence with money. But in the European football world back then, there were definitely not a few clubs that spent a lot of money. But why did Blackburn succeed?"

"Because they have a magical head coach, that is George Levy."

"Only with a magical coach can there be outstanding results. As long as George is still there, whoever ignores Blackburn will be unlucky."

Yes, after the game, Blackburn took the absolute initiative in the Champions League semi-finals.
