Chapter 91 Midfield Engine

When Manchester United rushed to the corner flag area to celebrate wildly, the silent Anfield broke out, and more than 5 fans of the home team booed desperately. They would not allow their rivals to run wild in their own territory!
Amidst the boos all over the sky, Traore lowered his head, full of frustration.

He doesn't know why things turned out like this, shouldn't he complete a beautiful defense and instigate a new offense for the team?Why did it become an own goal?God, it shouldn't be like this!
Liverpool captain Hyypia was angry, but seeing Traore's almost collapsed appearance, he couldn't blame his poor teammate anymore.

What's the use of blaming him now?Ruin a young and promising teammate?

This season, Traore's performance has been good. He has started almost all the previous games and is one of the contributors to the team's ability to maintain the top two points in the Premier League.

Moreover, this own goal was really an accident... Well, maybe Traore should also bear some responsibility, he was a little careless...

Hypia walked up to Traore, touched his bald head, and patted his shoulder again, without saying a word.

Sky TV Sports Channel, Lineker and Kirsty, who partnered to commentate the game, were also shocked when they witnessed Traore scoring such an incredible own goal.Lineker used "Unbelievable" several times in a row, while Kirsty said "Stupid" several times in a row in shock.It took a lot of effort for the Liverpool fan to hold back the harsher words.

And reporters from other media, after witnessing this scene, felt the same way: unbelievable, stupid mistake...

………………

When the game restarted, Liverpool made a substitution.

Houllier forced himself to resist the urge to replace Traore immediately, and finally followed the previous decision to replace Baros with Husky.

Liverpool, who fell behind in the score, launched a frenzied counterattack afterwards, hoping to equalize the score in the shortest time.Otherwise, when Manchester United recovers, they are likely to suffer a defeat at home.

However, the so-called "haste makes waste", Liverpool's successive waves of strong attacks failed to break through Manchester United's goal. Instead, their own goal was declared lost in a quick counterattack by Manchester United.

In the 64th minute, the Manchester United goalkeeper kicked the ball with a big kick from the backcourt. Near the center line, Yin Jun completed the control relay with a very coquettish scorpion wagging his tail and kicked the ball towards Liverpool's big penalty area.

Carragher blocked Ruud Van Nistelrooy and grabbed the ball.But under the pressure of Ruud van Nistelrooy, the Liverpool defender did not have the confidence to stop the ball, so he chose to return the header.

This choice is not wrong, but sometimes when luck is bad, drinking cold water will clog your teeth, and Liverpool's luck today is obviously not good.

The pass from Carragher's header to Dudek looked very simple and shouldn't be a problem, but Dudek accidentally let go of his hands. The dropped ball just landed at Fran's feet.

The Uruguayan striker didn't show the attitude of "it's not a cheap food" in the face of the pie that fell from the Tianshan Mountains. Instead, he smiled unceremoniously and easily pushed the ball into the unguarded Liverpool goal.

………………

The Anfield stadium fell into dead silence again, and the singing of Liverpool fans stopped. They have begun to doubt life: what happened to Liverpool's luck today? In 6 minutes, two goals were conceded due to unimaginable mistakes by our players?

Contrary to Liverpool's dismay, Manchester United is overjoyed.The [-] or so fans who came to Liverpool with the team in the stands erupted into cheers.On the bench of the visiting team on the sidelines, Ferguson also applauded with a smile on his face.

The morale of Liverpool, which had conceded two goals in a row, fell to the bottom, while Manchester United was invincible, turned away and launched a fierce offensive towards Liverpool's goal.

In the 67th minute, Manchester United launched an offensive from the backcourt. Yin Jun played a very good role as a midfield hub. He received a pass from Scholes, successfully broke through Liverpool's pressing, and distributed the ball to the left.

Giggs, who was on the rise, chose to break through forcibly in the face of two Liverpool defenders.After breaking through the closing defense of two Liverpool defenders, Giggs did not delay at all, and passed the ball in an inverted triangle to the vicinity of the penalty area line.

There, Forlan suddenly rushed up and volleyed vigorously from the outside of his right foot. Dudek flew and touched the ball with one palm, but the football still flew into the near corner.

3:0, Manchester United leads the home team by a big score in the away game, and the victory is almost sealed!

………………

Liverpool is indeed an extremely tenacious team. If other teams fell behind by three goals, they might have collapsed and surrendered, but Liverpool did not.

In the stands of Anfield Stadium, more than 5 fans of the home team sang: You will never walk alone!

Liverpool, which had been demoralized, revived amid the singing of tens of thousands of fans of the home team, and launched a violent attack towards Manchester United's goal.

Just half a month ago, they staged a crazy performance in Switzerland where they fell behind by three goals and finally scored three goals to tie the score. Now at Anfield, with the support of tens of thousands of fans of the home team, they did not feel desperate.

On Manchester United's side, with a three-goal lead, they used more possession of the ball, or used foul tactics to counter Liverpool's crazy counterattack, preventing Liverpool from having loose ball possession opportunities.

In the 68th minute, Forlan tackled Owen from behind, Sylvester hugged the ball and had a brief dispute with the opposing player. Forlan and Sylvester were given a yellow card. When Liverpool took a free kick, Players from the two teams argued again.

Seeing the Liverpool players arguing with the Manchester United fans, Kirsty became anxious for them.

Arguing with Manchester United players at this time, isn't it just allowing the opponent to achieve the purpose of consuming time?

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Houllier on the sidelines quickly stopped the players from competing with Manchester United players, and made the second substitution adjustment of the game, replacing midfielder Smitch with striker Diouf Er, Liverpool changed 433, Houllier decided to fight Ferguson.

The Senegal striker performed very well in this summer's World Cup in Korea and Japan, and was one of the major contributors to Senegal's break into the quarterfinals.Houlier sent him because he had high hopes on him.
