Hernandez's goal is more to stabilize Manchester United's morale, but it does not fundamentally change the situation of the game, because as long as Inter Milan score another goal, they can catch up with Manchester United in the total score, as long as the total score catch up with Manchester United, because Inter are away from home, they will have a greater psychological advantage.
As a result, Hernandez, who scored the goal, was celebrating crazily, while Manchester United fans, who were conservative and worried, stood up and applauded, then sat down and waited for the game to start again.
Manchester United manager Ferguson also applauded, but his face did not have much joy. He felt that Inter's fighting spirit was very strong today. Even if they were beaten by Manchester United, the players were not anxious or afraid. Obviously, they were fully prepared before the game.
Assistant murenstine whispered: "head, Inter have ideas today."
"Don't think it will be easy to beat them away at home. The dignity of the defending champion can't be underestimated," Ferguson said
"Let them in one more and we'll be in trouble," said assistant Phelan
Ferguson told the two assistants: "it's necessary for us to prepare for attack and defence before the match. Inter will not give up easily."
"Leonardo has only been in charge for a few years, and he can't compare with you," Phelan said
Murenstein said: "next we are not going to take advantage of the victory to pursue."
With a smile, Ferguson said: "just a moment, let's see if Inter have changed. If they attack, we will defend. If they don't want to attack, we will attack."
"Yes, we have the advantage and we can adapt," said Phelan
Murenstine also agreed, saying: "if the score is still the same after 70 minutes, the situation will be out of control."
Manchester United's coaching staff have made a decision. Phelan told Scholes what Ferguson meant. When the game started again, Manchester United kept in their own half to watch Inter's reaction after losing the ball.
Inter's game today is very rhythmic. After the opening goal, they didn't pursue while winning. Now they have lost the ball, and they are not in a hurry to attack. They are still in the midfield organization. The two full backs only have Maicon's assists. Chivu is waiting near the midfield.
If Manchester United's formation is left leaning and empty on the right, Chivu will take forward the assists, otherwise, Chivu will not move.
Inter are very cautious and seem to be able to accept the current score, which makes Ferguson a bit confused about Leonardo's idea. However, Ferguson does not intend to speculate on Leonardo's intention. Manchester United have the advantage and play at home. Of course, he does not want to leave inter a chance.
Ferguson watched for almost seven or eight minutes, then with a wave of his hand, United's players pressed on the attack and continued to expand the advantage of the score.
Today, Manchester United do not have pure wingers. Apart from Gao Xiaodong and Wayne Rooney, there are many assists from the full back. Generally speaking, the threat to Inter's wingers is no worse than that of the wingers.
However, Inter's last home defeat was mainly due to the absence of main center back Samuel due to injury, and the replacement of the middle and back guard La Nokia was blown up. This time, inter learned a lesson. Leonardo had a Christmas tree formation. There were two layers of protection in front of the center back. It was very difficult for the opponent to directly face the center back of Inter.
After Inter's Gao Xiaodong and Rooney, the threat from the side is certainly great, but there are fewer people in the middle. The two full backs Rafael and Evra do not have the ability to shoot inside. Therefore, Manchester United's attack can cause a threat, but there is always less thunder and rain, but there are not many threatening shots.
Christmas tree formation is a defensive counter attack based formation, because of the lack of side attack, midfield players must have a strong ability to control the ball, the ball, forward to be able to pass and shoot.
And these, just Inter have, striker Eto'o has speed, technology and experience, front waist Sneijder control the ball and break through the ball are good, once give inter a chance to fight back, they create a threat is not small.
Of course, the weakness of the Christmas tree formation is also very obvious, that is, weak attack, when the opponent intensive defense, the Christmas tree formation has no ability to attack.
international Milan's defense is very strong, the mentality is also very steady, but Manchester United this season has not failed, even if lost many main forces, the attack power has maintained at least seven or eight old awesome, the weak main defense.
In the 30th minute of the game, Manchester United made mistakes in Inter's defense by passing from the side. The ball hit his teammate Cambiasso and bounced in front of Rooney. Rooney raised his foot and hit the ball because he was in a bit of a hurry. He didn't kick the right part and only scratched the skin of the ball. However, he fooled goalkeeper Cesar by mistake and the ball didn't return It slowly rolled to the near corner of the goal.
As the ball was about to roll into the net, La Nokia, the inter defender who had just made a mistake, rushed to the net and shoved the ball out of the bottom line. He also hit the post.
"Ah
"It's too dangerous!"
"The trough! I didn't get in
"God! What a pity……
Such a good chance to score, Manchester United's old players heart cast a shadow, they played countless games, naturally understand that luck is very important in the game, but luck is not a game in favor of a team, you can not grasp the balloon, luck can go to the opponent there.
Although inter put a lot of energy into defense, they didn't stick to it. They are constantly threatening United's goal with counterattack.
In the 35th minute of the game, Sneijder sent a straight forward in the counterattack. Eto'o skillfully crossed the ball to the side and got rid of the two centre backs of Manchester United. Then he crossed across the side of the penalty area to find Stankovic and Sneijder, but the ball was shoved out of the bottom line by brown.
Then Sneijder sent out a tactical corner, Maicon in the middle of the cross in the front of the restricted area, Stankovic 27 meters from the foot to shoot furiously, the ball flew out of the bottom line close to the beam.
A minute later, Maicon counterattack cut in the long-range shot, the ball missed the bottom line.
……
In the last five minutes of the first half, when you attacked and defended, Manchester United contracted a little and wanted to keep the one-to-one score until the end of the half-time. Such a score is good for Manchester United. Manchester United's players want to go back to the dressing room with one goal advantage.
Inter fell behind in the score. After defending for such a long time, they didn't get many chances to attack. Manchester United shrunk. They immediately came out and wanted to level the score in the last five minutes.
Manchester United's starting formation is prepared for defensive counterattack, only because Inter's sudden goal disrupted the rhythm. Now Inter's attack, Manchester United's defense is very relaxed, which not only solved Inter's penetration into the restricted area and side breakthrough for many times, but also got two good counterattack opportunities.
In the 45th minute of the game, Inter's intrepid attack was quickly counterattacked by Manchester United. Gao Xiaodong, Michael Carrick and Paul Scholes passed one foot in a row, destroying Inter's high-level close down. Then Paul Scholes passed one foot to Rooney accurately, creating a single chance to attend the meeting.
Rooney with the ball straight Huanglong, in the face of goalkeeper Cesar is a push shot.
Cesar didn't react as well. He took a step too slow to block with his legs. The ball flew from his feet to the net.
At this moment, the hearts of Inter fans are cool, think that the goal.
Rooney's eyes were fixed on the ball, his hands were up, waiting for the ball to enter to celebrate, but the ball bounced back on the post.
Rooney was very disappointed. He held his head in his hands and even forgot to make up for it.
Goalkeeper Cesar survived, but he has rich experience. At this time, he didn't feel the generosity of God, but directly kicked forward with a big foot and launched a quick counterattack.
Rooney's single goal, Manchester United's players are also in regret, did not notice that Cesar has big kick-off.
Inter is a team with a tradition of quick counterattack. When Cesar takes the ball, the players of inter start to run and the ball is just snatched by striker Eto'o.
Eto'o once again put the ball to the side, high-speed along the sideline to the bottom line breakthrough, double front midfield Sneijder and Pandev quickly from the middle to catch up with the outflanking, three back midfield Stankovic and Cambiasso as the second wave of grabbing players also quickly forward.
Although Inter's counterattack is very sudden and fast, Manchester United's back has just assisted, only Fletcher remains behind. When inter counterattack, Gao Xiaodong Carrick can only keep up with Inter's second wave of outflanking players.
Stankovic and Sneijder are two defenders and Fletcher, but Eto'o is on the side of the penalty area and suddenly cuts in, which directly attracts United centre back brown.
At this time, Sneijder, who was fast forward, suddenly stopped and threw away his guard.
Eto'o nece is to break the defensive balance of Manchester United, see Sneijder stop, Eto'o immediately return to Sneijder.
Eto'o's return pass time is very good and accurate. Sneijder doesn't need to adjust. To meet the ball is a volley and the ball goes straight to the right side of the goal.
Eto'o's cut just moved Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar to the left. When Eto'o returned, he hurried to the middle to prevent Sneijder from hitting the other side. However, Sneijder's shooting position was on the line of the big restricted area. The distance was too close and the ball speed was too fast. Even in the subversive period, van der Sar may not be able to jump, and now he can only watch the ball Access to the Internet.
2: 1
inter took advantage of a counterattack to score a goal from Sneijder and draw the total score 3-3.
