There was not much time left in the first half of the game, but Manchester United's attack became more and more fierce, with both wings flying together and constantly getting the chance to shoot.
The players of Liverpool are trying to control the rhythm of the game in their own hands, but Manchester United are two goals behind. In order to score, they have to be beaten passively.
In the 45th minute of the first half, Nani and Gao Xiaodong matched Rodriguez two by one. Nani caught up with the ball and was ready to attack the bottom line.
At this time, full back Carragher rushed to meet Nani with both feet.
Nani today because of the mistake caused the team's second goal, he felt guilty in the heart, in the face of Carragher's foot ferocious tackle and did not avoid, he wanted to put the ball away again, but Carragher shovel speed is very fast, and feet off the ground, ran to Nani's face bone shoved in the past.
Nani saw that Carragher showed his studs and didn't close his feet, so it was too late to hide.
Carragher's feet shoveled on Nani's calf. Nani screamed and fell on the grass like a fallen tree.
Carragher shoveled Nani down and stood up as if nothing had happened. He pointed to Nani and said that Nani was acting.
Manchester United fans in the stands yelled a red card, but there were more Liverpool fans, who joined hands and chanted "dive!" The voice of Manchester United fans has been silenced.
Ferguson was angry. He rushed to the court and yelled at the referee: "does he want to kill people?"
Dalglish frowned on the sidelines and thought Carragher was a bit reckless. It was a red card.
Gao Xiaodong is next to him. He is very angry when he sees Carragher show his shoe nails. Unexpectedly, Carragher even says Nani is acting.
"To play in NIMA!"
Gao Xiaodong rushed in and gave Carragher a push.
Although Gao Xiaodong was angry, he didn't lose his mind completely. The power of his hand was not great.
Carragher staggered for a moment, did not pretend to fall, but did something more disgusting. He scolded "yellow boy!" He spat on Gao Xiaodong's face.
Gao Xiaodong had never been insulted like this. He was very angry just now and lost his mind. He raised his hand and slapped Carragher in the face.
Carragher was stunned. He had no idea that Gao Xiaodong, who was shorter than him, would dare to slap him. When he reacted and rushed to Gao Xiaodong, the players from Liverpool and Manchester United came. The players from Manchester United stopped Carragher and the players from Liverpool pushed Gao Xiaodong. More than a dozen people were pushing and shoving together. They saw that the situation was going to intensify.
Ferguson was shocked to see that Gao Xiaodong slapped Carragher in the face. He didn't expect Gao Xiaodong to be so dispassionate.
"This son of a bitch!"
Ferguson trembled with anger and marched into the field, but was held tightly by the fourth official.
At this time, the referee Dodd finally arrived, he directly took out the red card to light to Gao Xiaodong, and then took out the yellow card to light to Carragher.
Carragher saw that the referee Dodd took out a yellow card. He was very happy. If he only got a yellow card, it would be worth the slap.
Never thought, Gao Xiaodong saw the referee pulled out a yellow card, he thought, I can't make you feel red card, he came forward and pressed the referee Dodd's hand, said: "referee, he spat on my face, look, now there are you, in addition, he just lit the stud shovel Nani, you give him a yellow card?"
The referee Dodd saw the saliva on Gao Xiaodong's face, and saw Nani covering his leg in pain on the ground. He put the yellow card into his pocket, took out the red card and gave it to Carragher.
In an instant, the old hen turned into a duck. Carragher was very depressed. He explained to the referee Dodd: "I didn't spit. He was lying."
The referee Dodd's decision has been made. How can it be changed? He pointed to the field and asked Carragher and Gao Xiaodong to leave the field as soon as possible, then let the stretcher come on and take Nani down.
After Gao Xiaodong calmed down, he regretted that he was too impulsive. However, the incident had come to this point and was irremediable. He took off the armband of the captain and gave it to Rooney, who came to comfort him. "Wayne, it's up to you."
Rooney nervously took over the captain's armband and said to Gao Xiaodong, "I'll try my best."
Gao Xiaodong nodded and turned to the dressing room amid the boos of the Liverpool fans.
He Hui, the on-site commentator, was stunned, "my God! Xiao Dong slapped Carragher in the face of 600 million or 700 million fans! Although Carragher should play! But it's not cool! Today, it's the first time for him to wear the captain's armband in the league! United are counting on him to score! It's a red card. At least the next match will be suspended. Maybe there will be additional punishment. At this time, I think Sir Alex has the heart to beat him up! It is estimated that the invincible gold body will be broken. Xiao Dong, be careful with Sir Alex's hair dryer. "
In the VIP box, Glazer's eldest son Avram also came. He frowned and said to his younger brother Joel, "is this the captain that Sir Alex is looking forward to? It's not cool! I think it's better for the captain to look a little younger and matureJoel had been blowing Gao Xiaodong before, but he didn't expect Gao Xiaodong to do such an impulsive thing. He gave a wry smile and wanted to explain for Gao Xiaodong, but he had nothing to say.
After Carragher and Gao Xiaodong, the referee Dodd only gave United a free kick. United failed to attack. After the dead ball, Dodd blew the whistle at the end of the first half.
When the Manchester United players returned to the dressing room, Gao Xiaodong was taking a bath.
Ferguson, with a gloomy face, stood at the door silent, as if waiting for Gao Xiaodong to come out.
The players all felt the smell of the coming rain and the wind all over the building. They were so scared that they just silently took off their shoes and shin guards, quietly relaxed their muscles, and didn't dare to let out the atmosphere.
After three or four minutes, Gao Xiaodong came out. Manchester United players thought that Ferguson's blower was about to start. However, Ferguson had been brewing for such a long time, but he said gently: "Xiaodong! Why are you so impulsive? "
Giggs and Scholes have been with Ferguson for more than 20 years and have never heard of this kind of resentment. They looked at each other in surprise and nodded at each other, saying that the old man is really old.
Gao Xiaodong didn't expect that Ferguson didn't get angry. He was embarrassed and said: "sorry boss, I'm impulsive."
Ferguson said in a deep voice: "you should apologize to your teammates, especially Nani. We had hoped to play one more..."
"Yes, I apologize to my teammates." Gao Xiaodong only said yes, but he was thinking that the referee was not ready to give a red card at all. If it wasn't for him, I think it would be a yellow card.
"It's good to realize the mistake. Fortunately, we still have a certain advantage in points, otherwise it will be dangerous. We can't be so calm in the future, and go back to pay the fine..."
Ferguson not light not heavy criticism of Gao Xiaodong a few words, and then began the second half tactics.
It's not that Ferguson doesn't want to criticize Gao Xiaodong, just like he used to do with David, van Nistelrooy, Keane and Ronaldo. But now the situation of Manchester United is different. It turns out that he has 92 classes under his command. No one can affect the results of Manchester United if he leaves.
Now there are only 37 year old Giggs and Scholes left in class 92. The others are old, young and old. With this achievement, Gao Xiaodong has made great contributions and the situation is better than others. Ferguson really dares not risk breaking with Gao Xiaodong and criticizes Gao Xiaodong.
Ferguson can only hope that Gao Xiaodong can learn a lesson and not do such stupid things in the future.
