Chapter 339
After scoring the goal, Modric ran straight to the sidelines. Li Shiguang picked up the hero who would most likely help Leeds United beat Manchester United, with an extremely arrogant smile on his face.
Simeone, Rivaldo, Ibrahimovic and others who were sitting behind Li Shiguang also surrounded him, and Ibrahimovic even threw Modric, who had just been put down by Li Shiguang, to the ground.
Then, the Leeds United players on the field also rushed over and piled up on the two of them.
Li Shiguang first put his hands on his waist and looked at these crazy celebrating players with a smile on his face.
Wait until the boos sounded from Old Trafford.
Li Shiguang seemed to feel something.
Turned around and looked.
Ferguson looked at him with a complicated look in his eyes and a sullen face.
Li Shiguang didn't bother to care what the old Sir was thinking at this time.
He looked at Ferguson without dodging, and even smiled and nodded slightly...
····
The TV screen was replaying the goal just now.
Lineker still couldn't help but sigh: "It's so beautiful. I'm not just talking about Modric's shot, but also Torres' sudden heel knock! To be honest, when I saw Torres trapped in Manchester United's three-man double team, I thought Leeds United's attack was over!"
"Yes!" Jon nodded heavily with a smile on his face, "Manchester United also has problems! I really didn't expect Ferguson to not use any substitutions on the back line. Look at Ferdinand's pursuit after Sneijder passed the ball. He can't run much. This turn is as slow as an aircraft carrier!"
"Hahaha." Lineker was amused by Jon's description "Your statement is a bit unreasonable. Ferdinand's turn was already very fast, but Torres was faster! If we have to find a culprit for this ball, I think Park has a big problem. After Sneijder passed the ball, he just ran slowly to the right side, not even passing the center line. I don't know why he was so persistent to stick to him, resulting in Modric being completely unguarded."
Jon smiled: "Don't tell me, I might know this! I watched an interview with Ferguson before. In the interview, he spoke highly of the Koreans, and the most satisfying thing about the Koreans was that they had high execution on the court!"
"High execution?" Lineker was puzzled.
"Yes! Simply put, he did whatever Ferguson told him to do. If I guessed correctly, Ferguson must have told him to keep an eye on Sneijder before he substituted him on the court. But I didn't expect this Korean to be so stubborn, hahahahaha..."
····
After Modric scored this goal.
Whether the fans at home accept it or not, they all know that Leeds United has almost killed the game.
Even if the extra time is included, there are only seven or eight minutes left at most.
Sure enough.
After Manchester United restarted the game, the fourth official immediately raised the extra time sign on the sidelines, and the second half had four minutes of extra time.
To be honest, seven minutes can still change the outcome of a football game, just like the last round of Leeds United's championship last season, didn't they overtake the score until the last minute?
So Manchester United did not give up.
Especially Ronaldo, losing the ball seemed to make him more active, and he kept running to find space.
But Leeds United just scored a goal, and it was also a time of high morale.
Just after the celebration on the sidelines, Li Shiguang specifically instructed that only Adriano should be left in the center circle.
The others all retreated, after all, they were the ones leading at this time, as long as they kept the advantage of this ball until the last minute, the three points and double bonus would all be in hand.
Finally.
After Neuer pressed Ronaldo's shot firmly on his body, the referee blew the whistle, two long and one short, three whistles!
"The game is over!" Lineker said excitedly, "Sure enough, Leeds United is invincible after saying goodbye to September! They defeated Manchester United 2-1 away in the ninth round of the 2007-2008 English Premier League! After getting these three points, Leeds United will also surpass Manchester United and come to the second place in the standings!"
····
After hearing the whistle, Li Shiguang immediately walked towards Ferguson on the opposite side.
Considering that he almost made the old Sir Alex Ferguson have high blood pressure when he met him at the airport a few days ago, Li Shiguang was not too arrogant when he shook Ferguson's hand today.
The two shook hands and then hugged each other gently.
Ferguson seemed very generous. Although his face was still not good, he still congratulated him: "Congratulations, Li, in the second half"Thank you, Alex." Li Shiguang patted Ferguson on the back and said in a friendly way, "You want to win too much. If your last substitution is on the back line, my players will not seize this opportunity." Ferguson glared at first, and when he saw that Li Shiguang did not mean to laugh at him, he pulled up a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth: "Don't blame me, if it was not at Old Trafford today, but at Elland Road, your substitutions would definitely be more radical than mine! "
Ferguson's words made Li Shiguang a little speechless. He didn't know how to answer for a while. After all, the old Sir was right. The team was in good shape and it was at home. It didn't make sense not to fight for victory in this situation.
The two chatted casually for a few more words, and Li Shiguang said goodbye and left. The Leeds United players were still waiting for him to celebrate the victory.
Ferguson looked at Li Shiguang's back as he turned and left. He was a little dazed. He shook his head gently and turned to his disciples: "Okay, Cristiano, Wayne, don't be bitter. This is just an ordinary league game. If we lose, we lose. Next year, we will have a chance to redeem ourselves when we go away! Everyone performed very well today, but we were a little unlucky. ”
····
After saying goodbye to Ferguson, Li Shiguang did not immediately go to the venue of the post-match press conference, but returned to the locker room first.
In front of all the Leeds United players, Li Shiguang called Allen and fulfilled his promise of double bonus.
Then, amid the thunderous cheers of everyone.
Li Shiguang also extended the four-day holiday promised before the game to six days.
This made the substitute players who did not get the double appearance bonus excited again!
Especially young players like Reus and Hummels, although they did not get so much money, but for them who were not called up by the national team, the six-day holiday was enough to spend a happy holiday with their families...
