Chapter 997

The first half ended with 2-0, and United took the lead for the time being with Wayne Rooney's second goal.

This makes the Manchester United players on the pitch very excited.

If the score of 1-0 is not safe enough, then it is 2-0 now. With Manchester United's performance in the first half and the strength of defensive counterattack, I believe it is very likely to win this game.

It can even be said that it is absolutely certain.

However, this time they are facing the Paris Saint Germain led by the high cold.

From the performance of the first half, Paris Saint Germain is certainly a strong team, but not mature and stable.

Tiago Silva deserves to be the number one centre back in the world. He has a good command in the back line, but David Lewis is not stable enough, and Marcello on the left is better at attacking than defending, which makes Manchester United seize the opportunity.

When van Persie and Dario sRNA walked off the court, they noticed that they were embarrassed when they were standing outside the tunnel and in front of the visiting coach, because the two goals of Manchester United were written by them.

Dario sRNA in particular.

The routine of the second goal just now was his skill at Atletico Madrid. I still remember that Gao Han had made it for him, but in the end he used it to deal with his mentor, which made the Croatian feel a little ashamed.

On the contrary, it was the high cold, happily came to meet them, "well done."

Seeing the teacher's right hand, van Persie and Dario sRNA immediately came up and shook hands with Gao Han with a smile.

"Sorry, boss." Said the Dutch centre forward.

"There's nothing to be ashamed of. You haven't won yet." Gao Han said with a smile.

Van Persie and Dario sRNA looked at each other and laughed at each other.

Your uncle is still your uncle after all, to two goals behind now, alpine is still Alpine.

"Go back and have a good rest. The second half is the decisive battle."

It's all opponents. It's hard to say too much about Gao Han. Seeing Ferguson coming, Gao Han immediately sent them back to the dressing room.

"Ha, I'm sorry to let you meet like this." The old Scotsman is afraid of chaos.

"Did you win?" Gao Han asked with a smile.

"Not yet." Ferguson replied, "but soon."

"That's fine. We'll see in 45 minutes." Gao Han said with a faint smile.

"To tell you the truth, if we meet again in a year, I will be more worried, but now Paris Saint Germain is not mature enough, it is not easy to play the Champions League with such a team." Ferguson is very frank.

Paris Saint Germain is not a matter of strength, but is not mature and stable as a whole, as I know.

"You are right, but it has always been my specialty to support war by war and sum up experience." The high cold countered.

He is not wrong, alpine has always made achievements in the second year, which also convinced everyone.

"You let DiMaria play in the middle of the midfield. It's a good hand. It's also good to bring in obamayan, but Pirlo, who is behind the midfield, is still weak on the defensive side. You let David Luis often help, but the Brazilian is not mature enough and has a lot of problems on the defensive side." Ferguson saw it all at once.

Ginger is still old and spicy.

"Also, you shouldn't be playing Drogba in this game

Gao Han's bitter smile, why didn't he know?

According to all kinds of signs before the game, Drogba really has the qualification to start, the league is also in excellent condition, and Manchester United, who are familiar with the Premier League, have psychological advantages. In contrast, Suarez, no matter his experience or ability to deal with Manchester United's defense, is not as reliable as Drogba.

But who would have thought that Drogba's form in this game would be so flat?

It can't be said that it's bad. It's just that it's flat. It's too easy for the two centre backs of Manchester United without his aggressiveness when playing in the league.

I believe that if Suarez, maybe the effect will be better.

Of course, as the head coach, the game has already played half-time, Gao can not regret for his decision, there is no time to regret.

…………

…………

Drogba is clearly aware that his performance is not satisfactory.

After playing for more than 20 years, it's easy for him to feel his state on the court. He can run and jump, but his whole body can't get excited and can't get warm.

It's a bad feeling, simply put, that your body can't keep up with your mind.

It was the first time that he really felt old.

It turned out that he was really thirty-four years old.

This kind of aging does not depend on his will. It will not stop because he keeps training hard all the time. It will not stop because of his self disciplined life. It will not stop because he doesn't want to.

He knew very well that he was going to be unable to kick.

Maybe next year, maybe the next year, it's fast anyway.

For the cold, he felt guilty.

He still clearly remembers what Gao Han told him when he was invited to Paris Saint Germain. The head coach always believed that he was not old enough. Even though he was in his thirties, he was still a Warcraft.

Last season's excellent performance has convinced Drogba that he is not old.

But this game, he really felt it.

It turns out that the feeling of aging is like this.

He felt very guilty about Gao, because after playing in the French league, Gao asked him whether he could play in the Super Cup. He was confident and said that he could, absolutely.

But in fact, in the first half of the game, he had almost no bright spot except for the straight ball he sent to obamayan in the opening stage, and he also missed a great chance to score.

That moment made him regret so far.

It's also a true reflection of his competitive state at the moment, that is, his body can't keep up with his brain.

Now he's starting to worry about another thing, will he be replaced at half-time?

As a professional player, Drogba knows very well that it is absolutely reasonable for him to be replaced at half-time with his performance in the first half. Any rational head coach will do so. Suarez should play as soon as possible. The Uruguayan can improve the speed and impact of the front court and put more pressure on Manchester United's back line.

Moreover, Suarez and Neymar, DiMaria and Marcello also cooperate more skillfully and tacitly.

They all have the cunning and agility of a South American player.

However, as a European superstar, even though he is old, Drogba still can't accept the result of being replaced in the middle of the game, because he knows that this represents that the cold completely overthrows the first half of the starting tactics, which is a total negation of him and will become the focus of all media reporters in tomorrow's newspaper.

He was replaced at half-time, second only to the substitute.

This worry made Drogba feel bad. He was full of uneasiness and uneasiness when he went back to the dressing room. Especially when he saw the cold push the door of the dressing room and came in, he dodged and did not dare to look at the head coach.

He was a little flustered.

To Drogba's surprise, Gao didn't mention his name from the beginning to the end. He began to analyze the tactical gains and losses in the first half. He didn't even mention the mistakes made by David Lewis in defending van Persie. He only discussed the tactics and how to deal with them in the second half.

High cold to Drogba's feeling is that in the first half, it was not 2-0 down, no one made mistakes, no one should be responsible for this, everyone completed their task well.

"Well, everyone, we have to pay attention to the mistakes in the first half. We have to plan the attack more actively in the second half. It's not terrible to fall behind two goals. I believe we can recover these two goals and even score more with our strength. So, add fuel!"

After Gao Han's final mobilization, he still stood at the door of the dressing room as usual, hugged every player and encouraged them to make more efforts on the pitch. When it was his turn, Drogba and David Lewis all looked the same as others.

David Lewis is relatively young and can't understand it. Some of them are lucky to escape the disaster. However, Drogba is very clear that Gao Han is trying to save his face and doesn't want him to be the target of public criticism. He even let David Lewis go.

It's like finding someone else's embarrassment. The best way to take care of each other's face is to pretend that nothing has happened and everything is normal.

Because whether it's ridicule or encouragement, it's an unacceptable shame for the other person.

"Boss... He doesn't want to embarrass us." Drogba said softly to David Luis, who was standing in front of him.

The Brazilian centre back was stunned for a moment. Looking back at Drogba, the Ivory Coast Elephant King nodded.

"Have a snack." Drogba looked straight at David Luis. "At your age, it's a blessing for you to meet such a manager. It's a blessing that many professional players can't dream of."

David Lewis is silent. He's not a fool. It's easy to see when he's pointed out.

The Brazilian centre back nodded in silence, turned his head and continued to follow the team. No one saw anything.

…………

"You didn't change people in the end."

At the door of the dressing room, watching the players leave, Zidane looks at Gao Han with a smile, as if to say, you are the guy I admire and even admire.

"I just think that Drogba can exhaust the fitness of Manchester United's centre back and Suarez will become more threatening when he comes on. That's all. Don't think too much of me Gao Han said faintly.

Is it?

Zidane looked at the coach suspiciously, but he didn't say anything. He just laughed. He knew it.

"What about the second half?" Zidane asked.

"Get Suarez ready and play as soon as the time comes."

After that, Gao also went to the player channel.

Zidane looked at his back behind him and said with a smile, didn't he?

However, Gao was struggling in his heart. His reason felt that he should change players. Suarez came on as soon as possible, and Paris Saint Germain could level the score more quickly, or even reverse it. But his sensibility told him that it was too cruel for Drogba.

Every player will be old, even everyone will be old, alpine sooner or later will be eliminated by professional football, he will slowly keep up with the world, slowly aging, no one can stop all this.

But it can be made more dignified.

He doesn't know whether it's right or not, or whether the players can feel his good intentions, but he just does what he thinks he should do and has a clear conscience.

As for winning or losing the game, he doesn't pay much attention to it now.

Besides, doesn't he have a trump card?
