The ball hit Gao Xiaodong's leg and went out of the baseline. Stoke kicked off.
Stoke City is completely defensive, naturally dare not pour the ball in the backcourt, goalkeeper Sorensen big foot out of the goal, the ball flew over the half court, directly fell in front of Ferdinand.
Ferdinand headed the ball back to Paul Scholes.
When Ferguson let Giggs play in extra time, he was regarded as the key force to defeat the enemy. Scholes and Giggs cooperated for so many years and trusted him most. Scholes took the ball and turned around and gave it to Giggs directly.
Giggs didn't take the ball out of the side. Although he just came on the field, he has good physical fitness, but after all, he is too old to compare his explosive power with the young people. Even if his opponent's physical fitness drops, he can't guarantee that he can break through the past.
Although Manchester United have the absolute advantage of controlling the ball, Stoke City do not fight back, even if the breakthrough fails, it does not matter, but Giggs does not think so. As the veteran of the team, he thinks he should play the role of big brother and play a high-quality attack at this time.
In the face of Wilson's defense, Giggs rushed forward two steps, a sudden stop, and immediately passed the ball back to Scholes. He tried to run back, but suddenly turned to the back of the guard.
Scholes closed his eyes and knew what Giggs wanted to do. He didn't prepare to stop the ball when Giggs passed back. He rubbed his toes and rubbed the ball behind the opponent's guard.
This is a very common cooperation, but because there is too much tacit understanding between Scholes and Giggs, there is no pause between passing and running. Although Wilson has been following Giggs, he is still slow. Giggs snatches the ball in front of him and passes it to the penalty area.
Giggs's pass has broken through the side defense, but Manchester United's Snatchers still can't get the chance to shoot under Stoke's dense middle defense, and the ball was shoved out of the bottom line by Huth.
Manchester United get a corner.
Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic both came to stoke for the top of the penalty area.
Giggs made a corner, the ball flew to the penalty area and was snatched by guard Huth again. He headed the ball to the outside of the penalty area.
Although the ball was released, Ferdinand and Vidic didn't go back to defend. They still stayed in Stoke's penalty area waiting for the chance.
Stoke City's penalty area is surrounded by Manchester United players, the ball returned to the feet of Manchester United again, and Scholes, who was trailing behind, hoisted the ball into the penalty area, trying to disturb Stoke City's defense and fish in troubled waters.
At the moment, Manchester United has five players in the penalty area, Stoke City has at least eight players in the penalty area, so many players in the penalty area, even if the judgment is right, it is difficult to get the ball, the ball fell into the penalty area, Ferdinand and Shawcross two people fight together, pull each other, no one can serve, the ball hit Shawcross's head without top far, fell into the penalty area Inside the restricted area.
Three or four people rushed to the ball, some wanted to head the ball out, some wanted to shoot, but the ball fell to the ground with the joint efforts of all the people.
There are too many people in the penalty area. No one can kick the ball. The ball is playing irregular sports. If not, it will get into the goal.
Gao Xiaodong also got the chance to swing a foot. Unfortunately, he didn't know who he hit or where he hit. In the end, the ball was knocked out of the baseline.
Even the baseline referee couldn't see who the ball was hitting, but the referee sympathized with the weak and gave stoke a goal.
The goal kick came out and fell to the feet of Manchester United players again, who continued to besiege Stoke's penalty area.
Giggs and Scholes in the flank continuous cross transposition, and finally Giggs suddenly from the rib breakthrough, away from the defensive players.
For a moment, there was no defender in front of Giggs, only goalkeeper Sorensen was waiting on the right side of the goal.
Giggs could shoot, but he didn't know if anyone was blocking him. Instead, he gave up the shot and crossed to Scholes.
When Scholes saw Giggs burst into the penalty area, Stoke's players contracted and suppressed. Gao Xiaodong didn't know when to retreat from the penalty area to the front of the penalty area. There was no one around him. He resolutely crossed to the front of the penalty area to find Gao Xiaodong.
The two footed pass was so unexpected that goalkeeper Sorensen moved into the middle of the goal when Scholes crossed.
This is a rare opportunity, Gao Xiaodong did not block the shooting line in front of the players, Gao Xiaodong did not choose to volley, but with the right foot outside the instep gently against the ball.
Gao Xiaodong's ball was so light that it flew high above the heads of all the players in the penalty area and flew to the top left corner of the goal like precision guidance.
Gao Xiaodong's strength is very small and his speed is not fast. If goalkeeper Sorensen stands in the middle of the goal, he can throw the ball out 100%.
But the goalkeeper Sorensen just moved to the middle when Gao Xiaodong was shooting. When he moved to the left and then jumped up, the ball had been flying into the net close to the post.
1: 0
in the 10th minute of extra time and the 100th minute of the whole game, Gao Xiaodong smashed the gate of Stoke City with an extremely ingenious volley.The goal was too difficult. After the goal, Gao Xiaodong was so excited that he couldn't help himself. He took off his shirt and ran to the stands crazily.
"In!"
"Long live! I'm in
"Ah! I'm in
"God! It's really in
"Gao Xiaodong has scored a goal!"
……
After playing so many goalposts in a row, Manchester United fans and players dare not clap and cheer easily until the ball is completely in the net and the referee's finger is in the middle circle.
60000 and 70000 Red Devils fans all jumped up and screamed together, just like a volcano erupted and magma spewed out. Its huge momentum was like the collapse of heaven and earth.
The commentators on the scene were all crazy, "Gao Gao! goalgoalgoal…… Manchester United! United finally scored! The 100th minute! Manchester United have finally broken Stoke's iron barrel formation! Gao Xiaodong's coquettish shot! Let the iron bucket array collapse instantly! Champions wave to Manchester United again! Manchester United's first title of the season is coming soon... "
Ferguson, the assistant manager and the substitutes rushed to the pitch frantically, hugging the players on the pitch as if the game was over.
Stoke people are stupid! They defended for 100 minutes. Unexpectedly, they were attacked by Gao Xiaodong's inadvertent kick!
For stoke, the only way to win is to defend. Once united break the goal, it means losing because they have no ability to attack.
Pulis put his hands around his head and muttered to himself: there are only 20 minutes left! Why can't it last 20 minutes! There are only 20 minutes left!
