Chapter 956

This season, Manchester United's overall performance is extremely strong. This strength is not only reflected in the smooth sailing in good times, but in many cases, Manchester United's situation is not good, and it can even be said to be difficult, but they are all blunt. Overcoming adversity, winning against adversity has almost become the norm.

This is the essential quality of a team that aspires to win the championship. Football is like a war. There are many unexpected factors. But being able to fight tough battles and win tough battles is definitely the essence of a championship team. It's sparkling.

This season, Manchester United has reversed and won many games, but most of them were when Fan Bizhuang was on the court. He played an extremely key role in every reversal game. In La Liga, Fan Bizhuang had one The reputation of "Mr. Key", and in the Premier League, the quality of always standing up at critical moments has still continued.

But in this game, Manchester United's performance when they were behind was not so promising, especially with Fan Bizhuang sitting high in the stands, Manchester United has never been able to create a fatal threat on the offensive end. With the passing of a drop, this makes people not have much hope for them.

After seven and 10 minutes, Manchester United's offense was still fruitless on the field, which even caused some commentators to shout in the commentary: "Manchester United's first defeat of the season is likely to be today!"

But I have to say that Ferguson's team is indeed hard-fought. In other words, with Fan Bizhuang, Manchester United is a super top-level team that is confident enough to challenge the top giants in various leagues around the world. Bizhuang, their overall strength will inevitably have a great impact, but they are still a first-class team.And the tireless aggressive attack finally paid off.

It is the veteran Irving who has become the savior of Manchester United today.

After Fan Bizhuang joined Manchester United, the original Manchester United No. [-] not only voluntarily gave up his jersey, but also withdrew from the position of the main striker. If Fan Bizhuang's performance is not worthy of the No. [-] jersey and the main position, Owen will naturally be unwilling to wither He was on the bench, but Fan Bizhuang integrated into the team extremely quickly, and his performance on all fronts was outstanding enough to make any competitor despair.

In this case, Irving can only become a rotation player on the front line.

In this league game, Fan Bizhuang was unable to play, and Owen got a rare chance to start.

Irving is characterized by his quickness, excellent skills, and extremely fast speed. He is definitely a good player in counterattacks, but his type of forward needs a certain amount of sprint space, and West Bromwich Albion retreated after taking the lead. , Create the midfield like a tietong, constantly squeezing the space for offensive players to hold the ball, which greatly limits Irving's performance.

Under such circumstances, Irving's performance was average most of the time, and he was not seen at all in many cases.

This kind of performance must not satisfy Ferguson, but for some unknown reason, Ferguson still kept it on the court.

Facts have also proved that Ferguson's choice was correct. At the last moment, the veteran used his rich game experience to play the role of "Mr. Key" and helped the team complete the reversal in one fell swoop.

No.801 minutes, Irving, who disappeared from the camera for a long time, suddenly appeared in the sight of the fans, and his appearance, like a cold and bloodthirsty assassin, directly stabbed a sharp knife into the To the heart of the home team.

Kaka's breakthrough and dribbling in the frontcourt attracted the attention of many defensive players. Owen did not cruise to the side to catch the ball, but experienced a detour to the middle of the penalty area, and Kaka's pass came just right. , Irving scored in the penalty area and formed a one-on-one situation with the defender.

Irving has a lot of experience, and he didn't shoot blindly. Instead, he kept making fake moves quickly, trying to open up the shooting space, and at the same time, he was tempting the opponent's defender to take a shot.His goal was achieved. The center of gravity of the Swedish defender Olsson was shaken. When it was impossible to touch the ball, he fell down and stretched his legs. His risky fight did not touch the ball. On the contrary, he kicked Owen's supporting foot, and Owen fell to the ground immediately.

The whistle sounded, and the referee ran over, first pointed to the twelve yards, turned around at the same time, and showed Olsson a red card.

The undisputed red dot set!

Owen helped the team win a crucial penalty, and at the same time got the opponent's central defender down, which means that Manchester United will have an absolute advantage in numbers, and the situation of the game has changed drastically in an instant.

Owen took the penalty himself, without any accidents, and easily fooled the goalkeeper. Owen hit the football into the bottom left corner of the goal.

The game became 1:1!

"Owen! Michael Owen! He made a penalty kick created by himself! 1:1! Both sides returned to the same starting line!"

"At the end of the game, the veteran Irving became the most important figure. His goals can at least help Manchester United avoid the fact that they lost away!"

"If the game ends with a score of 1:1, although Manchester United's winning streak will unfortunately end, Manchester United will still be the only team that remains unbeaten in the league this season!"

Although it is an away game, there are many Manchester United fans present, at least thousands of people. After all, this game is also a "record-breaking" battle. If Manchester United can continue to win, then they will tie the Serie A giants Inter Milan The longest winning streak in Europe's top leagues - 17 games!

Always lagging behind, and the team's top scorer Fan Bizhuang is not on the field, which somewhat disappointed the Manchester United fans who came to the away game, and even thought that the unbeaten golden body of the season was over, but Owen came forward , but it is eye-catching. Even if the final score is 1:1, it is better than losing. It is worth celebrating to be able to remain undefeated.

The commentator was screaming, and the fans were also cheering for Irving's goal. The whole stadium was full of jubilation, but Irving in the field didn't celebrate. He just raised his fist and shook it fiercely in the air, and then Then he rushed into the goal quickly, fished out the football, turned around and sprinted towards the middle circle.

Although he is no longer the main striker of the team, and the glory of the past has gradually faded with the passage of time, the veteran also has his own persistence. Although he is old, he is still able to fight and is still on the road to glory Come on, keep running!

He still wants to win!

……

The game quickly resumed.

After the score was equalized, Manchester United's morale rose instantly, and with one more player on the scene, it was even more imposing, trying to overtake the score at this last moment.

West Bromwich Albion's response was simple and direct. They made two substitutions in a row, all forwards and defenders. This was their determination to keep the 1:1 score until the end of the game.

The players of the home team are all surrounded in the midfield. Looking around, there are people almost everywhere. Although Manchester United has the advantage in numbers, it is not easy to create scoring opportunities in such a dense and small space.

Unexpectedly, 4 minutes later, Owen stepped forward again, smashing the tortoise shell of the home team by himself.

Owen, who pulled out of the penalty area, faced a pass from his teammate, and suddenly gave way with his back to the goal. The football slid into the penalty area, and he turned around and chased after him.Owen's movements were very fast, catching up with the football in two or three steps, turning the ball while running, dodging a defender, and before another defender came to cover the defense, he raised his right foot and volleyed. The shot landed on the football.

The football went straight into the net like a fired shell, and the goalkeeper of the home team was beaten without any response!

1: 2!

Scoring two goals in 5 minutes, Owen scored twice with a flash at the last moment, helping Manchester United reverse the score in one fell swoop!

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! MICHAEL! MICHAEL!! MICHAEL... Owen!!!"

"The second goal! The once golden boy of England defended his glory with two goals!"

"A beautiful goal! A vital goal!! There is no doubt that Michael is the best player in this game. In the absence of Fan, Michael led Manchester United to move forward with goals!! Seventeen Winning streak! Manchester United has tied the record held by Inter Milan, and they are tied with it as the holder of the longest winning streak in European football!"

The sky was full of cheers, the commentator was roaring, the fans were screaming, Ferguson was running around excitedly like a child on the sidelines, and the Manchester United players were waving their fists and shouting at the top of their lungs.

This time, Irving's celebration was particularly passionate. He ran from behind the goal and went straight to the billboard on the sidelines. Under the stands, he slid and knelt violently, causing three bars to rub against the ground in an instant!

Irving knelt on the ground, pumped his fists and shouted. Although the veteran lost his main position, he still used goals to tell the world that his name is Michael... Irving!

"Michael who will never give up!"

In the stands, Fan Bizhuang was also very excited. He kept clapping his hands and shouted Owen's name like the fans around him.

Although his arrival caused Owen to lose his main position, the private relationship between the two was very good. Owen took good care of him, and he learned a lot from each other.

This is a teammate worthy of his respect, and... a competitor!

……

The final score of this game was 1:2. In the last 10 minutes of the game, Manchester United relied on Owen's two goals in a row to win a thrilling reversal.

Although the process was somewhat tortuous, the result was satisfactory enough. In the last game of 2010, Manchester United drew a successful conclusion to the past year with a victory.

After the game, the media praised Manchester United, who had come back to win in adversity, and praised Manchester United for the longest winning streak in the European League. Of course, Owen, who played the role of Mr. Key, was even more praised. The media touted it to the sky.

But Manchester United didn't have the heart to enjoy these praises. Christmas is gone, but the fucking New Year's schedule has already started. After the game with West Bromwich Albion, Manchester United returned to Manchester after only a day's rest before sitting on the seat non-stop. The bus to Birmingham continued their league journey.
