The goal is in Manchester United's plan. Inter are the defending champions after all. They have the ability to break United's goal.
But now the goal is lost in less than three minutes. The original advantage of one and a half goals has become a hemisphere. Another goal will be eliminated, which breaks the United plan.
It's impossible for Manchester United to think of losing the ball at the beginning of the match.
If it's a normal goal, it's all right, but it's an offside goal.
Such a goal is too frustrating and angry.
After the game starts again, the mentality of Manchester United players can not keep calm, coupled with the current score, Manchester United can not continue to defend the counterattack, in order to ensure the promotion, they must continue to score.
Although at the beginning of the opening, in order to make up for the short board of the centre back, Ferguson sent a Fletcher and Carrick to defend, Gao Xiaodong and Scholes also had defensive tasks, but now the situation has changed, inter scored, Gao Xiaodong's comprehensive technical advantages revealed on the horse, originally in the training before the game, he was both offensive and defensive, now Gao Xiaodong Xiao Dong's energy was immediately on the attack.
Carrick is also an attacking midfield, although the current situation does not need him to participate in the attack, but Carrick was also frustrated by the offside goal of Inter Milan, he told Fletcher, he also pressed on to assist.
Fletcher also wants to attack, but he is helpless. Today, he is the captain of the team. He needs to show the captain's temperament and sacrifice spirit. The team is still in the lead. We can't defend alone. Everyone rushes up. He can only stay behind to watch.
Although today's United don't have the top half and winger, Gao Xiaodong and Rooney can play on the side. The two full backs Evra and Rafael are also more conscious of attack than defense. They attack from the side, and Scholes and Carrick move forward from the middle, which brings great pressure to Inter Milan.
Although today Leonardo in the tactical arrangement, made the attack, early goal arrangement, but even Leonardo did not expect his players will be so competitive, luck will be so good, less than three minutes into the opening goal.
Leonardo is still young after all. He doesn't have much competition experience. After scoring, he doesn't adjust the team's tactics. He can still play according to the original tactics.
Inter Milan is a defensive counter attack based team, midfield control of the ball is not strong, can pass the ball is Sneijder, Pandev and Eto'o. Manchester United's quick snatch soon put the old men of Inter Milan in a hurry and had to make a big start again and again.
In the seventh minute, Gao Xiaodong suddenly ran from the side to the midfield to steal Cambiasso, who held the ball, and then crossed sideways to find Rooney.
Gao Xiaodong knows a lot about Inter Milan. He doesn't carry the ball. He just wants to play fast and use the fast break to defeat Inter.
Rooney dribbled past Chivu and cut into the penalty area. Lucio rushed to make up his defence.
Rooney is not greedy, he returned to the front of the penalty area to find his teammate Hernandez.
Hernandez directly arched the lower right corner of the goal.
But at this time, Inter's defender, Nokia, arrived in time to block Hernandez's shot.
At the moment, Manchester United need to score. The midfield player is very determined. The ball flies out and falls at Carrick's feet. Carrick can shoot by himself or pass it to Gao Xiaodong and Scholes.
Carrick has been sparing the battle for a long time and has no confidence in his long-range shot. He chose Scholes in two passing points and crossed the defender with an arc to find Scholes accurately.
Scholes didn't expect Carrick to give him. He has an excellent long-range shot, but he is old and lacks explosive power. He hopes that this goal will make Gao Xiaodong the best shot.
But the ball has already passed. Scholes can't pass again. It's too complicated to pass again. That's the way Barcelona and Arsenal play. Manchester United are simple and rough. Scholes is a long-range shot to meet the ball.
Scholes had a good foot and a half high went straight to the left side of the goal.
Inter goalkeeper Cesar showed great courage, he flew a jump, the ball to the side.
At this time, full back Chivu appeared in the right position, saw Rooney with a very fast speed, Chivu opened the ball to the front with a big foot.
Chivu's kick was too powerful, and the ball went straight out of the sideline, but his clearance also gave his teammates
although Chivu's kick was a bit off the mark, it finally won them some breathing time.
Manchester United sent the ball to Scholes' feet. Now under the pressure of Manchester United, the players of Inter Milan go back to defend except the striker. No one comes to attack Scholes, which gives Scholes enough time to observe and think.
Scholes observed Hernandez's running position. He blocked the Middle Road, Hernandez broke into the penalty area and shot from the right wing, but the ball was pulled to block the bottom line.
United got a corner.Scholes is an old goblin. He knows that most of the veteran players in Inter Milan's lineup deliberately want to speed up the game and immediately signals Gao Xiaodong to serve the corner.
Gao Xiaodong is also very clear what his old club's weakness is, he understood, trotted to the corner flag area, quickly opened the ball to the penalty area.
The ball didn't get past Lucio's top and was pushed out of the box.
At the moment, Manchester United are under pressure, Fletcher at the back of the midfield grabs the spot and gives the ball to Gao Xiaodong on the left.
Gao Xiaodong used his speed to cross maikong in five steps, went down to the bottom line and swept the ball into the penalty area.
Gao Xiaodong can't pass the ball with his feet. It's almost the same as shooting. Motta wanted to intercept the ball, but he slowed down and the ball flew from his feet into the penalty area.
Rooney and Hernandez still didn't touch the ball in the middle. Lucio and La Nokia didn't dare to touch the ball again. The ball flew across the goal and came to the right side of the small penalty area.
At the moment, Manchester United's right back Rafael has reached the restricted area. He pushed the open goal from a small angle without being marked, but the ball was so fast that Rafael hit the ball into the sky within a short distance.
In the eyes of outsiders, it's a good chance. Inter fans are afraid to watch it again, and Manchester United fans are ready to celebrate.
No one would have thought that such a good opportunity would be hit by Rafael.
The commentator Andy Gray was very disappointed and said: "it's really a guard's Footwork! Such a close distance, even hit fly, but also higher than the beam, if the inter defender to play, this is also a high difficulty to break out
Rafael himself is also very depressed, he made a sorry gesture to Gao Xiaodong on the other side of the court, indicating that it was his fault.
Gao Xiaodong waved back at him, indicating that he would go back to defend quickly, and the opponent was going to serve the gateball.
The average age of Inter's 11 starting players has reached 30 years old. Although they need to score goals, they don't want to play fast. Goalkeeper Cesar is not impatient and doesn't make a big start when he kicks off the goal. Instead, he passes the ball to full back Maicon and slowly organizes the attack so that Manchester United can grab it.
In addition to Scholes, Evra and Edwin van der Sar, the United players are old. They have strong athletic ability and good physical fitness. They are not afraid of Eto'o, which is the only counter attack point with speed. When inter control the ball, they dare to press for it and force the opponent to pass long.
Inter's backcourt skill is not bad, Manchester United forward concentrated five talents to force Inter to open the big foot, but Motta's big foot opened very well, the ball actually found the front Eto'o.
Eto'o took the ball to the side and tried to break through Manchester United's right side with his own speed.
But Eto'o is 30 years old, not the cheetah of Barcelona, Rafael has not been broken through by him.
Eto'o's technique is good. Although he didn't form a breakthrough, the ball right is still firmly under his feet. He buckled the ball back and observed that central Luis Sneijder suddenly inserted into the penalty area.
Eto'o immediately rubbed up the ball, quickly passed to the penalty area, looking for Sneijder.
Inter's passing and running match is very tacit and secret. Manchester United's two centre backs, Wes Marin and brown, have not responded yet. Sneijder has inserted into the penalty area from his side.
As Sneijder was about to reach the goal, Gao Xiaodong suddenly jumped in from behind and headed to the side.
Gao Xiaodong played in Inter Milan for a year. He knew ETO ah and Sneijder very well. Seeing Sneijder start, he followed quickly, which destroyed the ball in the critical period.
Although Gao Xiaodong's strength is not small this time, Evra still saved the ball near the sideline. He quickly moved forward along the side and went straight into the half of Inter.
Evra after half-time, Inter Milan to organize the defensive force, Stankovic blocked in the left, not to allow Evra to continue to dribble forward.
Evra all a button, use their own flexibility over Stankovic, he did not continue dribbling, then a cross to Scholes.
Now the defender in the middle of Inter Milan has come back. When he saw Scholes catching the ball, he immediately blocked Scholes.
It's bullying Scholes. There's no speed.
Although Scholes did not have the speed, but his vision and experience are in, he found a line between the crowd and Hernandez, quickly passed the ball to Hernandez.
Hernandez received the ball from the front of the penalty area, quickly made a false move to forward, and then passed the ball to Gao Xiaodong who quickly inserted it from behind Scholes.
high and small winter running to adjust the pace, keep up with the round thigh is a foot anger.
Gao Xiaodong's shot is not a cold shot, and his angle is not tricky, but his shooting preparation posture is also exaggerated, but his strength is great and his speed is extremely fast. The goalkeeper Cesar fell down and tried to block the ball out of the bottom line, but the speed of the ball was too fast. Before Cesar had time to move, the ball bounced out of his hand.This is a terrible moment, because when the goalkeeper pounces, he always pours the ball to the side or the bottom line to prevent it from being missed by the opponent. But this time, he is passive and the ball bounces directly to the middle.
Hernandez in the ball to Gao Xiaodong after quickly inserted into the restricted area, even if Gao Xiaodong shot, Hernandez did not stop, he is very clever, looking for a chance to make up.
Hernandez's active running finally brought him rich rewards. The ball just bounced in front of Hernandez, and Hernandez pushed the ball into the open goal.
1: 1
Hernandez scored a goal when Manchester United were very dangerous and leveled the score to 3-2
