Chapter 117 The Leaky Room Meets the Night Rain

The ball saved by the Fenerbahce goalkeeper fell in front of Rooney. Rooney twisted his butt and forced a shot in front of the penalty area.

With a whoosh, the ball went over the crossbar again.

This is Xiaopang's fifth shot. Cannon lost his crosshairs today, and he himself is ashamed to look at his teammates. It's a world of difference from the hat hero last time.

Fenerbahce escaped again. After the shock, they strengthened the defense in front of the penalty area and no longer easily gave Manchester United players the chance to take the ball and shoot.

Manchester United's offensive has also slowed down. It is impossible for a team to play against their opponents throughout the game, and the rhythm cannot be so fast forever.

In the next ten minutes or so, Manchester United adjusted their rhythm and recuperated for a while. Until the end of the first half, Manchester United suddenly launched a fierce offensive.

Both Fletcher and Kleberson pressed forward, trying to break down the Fenerbahce defense in the final five minutes.

Fenerbahçe's defense suddenly panicked, jumping up and down.

Kleberson caught off guard with a long-range shot from 30 meters away and let the goalkeeper let go. Dong Fangzhuo almost succeeded in picking the dead chicken, but was poked out of the baseline by the defender.

Corner kick, Fenerbahce's life is still very hard!

Ferdinand couldn't stand it anymore, and rushed forward. Only Brown and Fletcher stood in front of Manchester United.

For a time, Fenerbahce's penalty area was almost full of players from both sides.

Manchester United did not want to enter the second half with a draw, and now they are almost launching a general attack.

Scholes sent a corner kick directly to the middle of the road, Rooney squeezed the opponent around Ferdinand, Ferdinand proudly took off and headed the goal.

Duang!

The ball flew fiercely to the lower left corner of the goal.

Just the word 'diao'.

But there happened to be a Fenerbahçe player standing there next to the goalpost, and the ball hit his calf and bounced out.

This guy was probably taken aback too, he was stunned for half a second before following up with a kick to clear the ball.

"This goal must have been cursed by the Turks, otherwise it wouldn't be so evil, no matter how hard it was shot!"

"Long-range shots, headers, and point grabs were all rejected."

Fletcher intercepted the ball, Manchester United's attack made a comeback, and the ball was handed over to Ronaldo on the right.

Ronaldo took two steps, but still resolutely chose to cross from the right.

This time he made a half-high pass, which bounced again when it landed on the edge of the penalty area.

The ball bouncing off the ground has deceived too many people, and many people cannot judge where the opponent will land.

But Dong Fangzhuo rushed out of the crowd first, stretched his right foot, and hit the ball in the middle of his foot.

Snapped!

At the same moment, his right foot was kicked.

Damn it, Dong Fangzhuo couldn't believe it.

It's Rooney.

This, this, this...

The surface of his feet was changed by a sudden force, and the ball was lifted over the crossbar!

turn out to be,

Rooney made a detour from the back point to the middle, and ended up grabbing a point at the same time as Dong Fangzhuo.

The two stretched their legs together, and ended up staying together.

Although Dong Fangzhuo touched the ball first, he was kicked by Rooney's left foot, and the direction of the shot was naturally changed.

"Oh God, what's going on!"

"Rooney made a clearance for Fenerbahce..."

"Sad reminder..."

Manchester United just missed the last shot in the first half.

The eyeballs of Ferguson off the court rolled over and over again, and he really didn't know what words to use to describe the scene just now.

If Rooney doesn't join in this kick, Dong Fangzhuo can kick the ball into the goal.

"Sorry." Rooney felt extremely sorry, and looked at Dong Fangzhuo with a bitter face, even he couldn't believe that he did such a thing.

half time,

The score was still 0:0. Although Manchester United had the advantage, it was too much fun to finish the goal, especially Rooney, who could make a collection of funny shots. If he is a player of Fenerbahce, he can be awarded the best player of the game and save Fenerbahce's goals many times.

In the locker room, everyone knew that in another game, Lyon had already led Sparta Prague 2:0 at home, which meant that Manchester United must remain unbeaten to get first place in the group.

The pressure is not too great, but Manchester United has been slow to score, which seems a bit dangerous. If Fenerbahce gets one, it is really disturbing with Manchester United's shooting in this game.

So Ferguson still warmed up Ruud van Nistelrooy on the bench in the second half.

It's just that Van Nistelrooy has not played in two games, can his state be guaranteed? Is it really better than Rooney and Dong Fangzhuo on the field?

Dong Fangzhuo was fine. He had two shots in the first half, and both shots hit the goal. It was the goalkeeper and the defender who blocked the ball. It was Rooney who was in a bad state, so if he wanted to change, he must change Ruud van Nistelrooy.

Ferguson considered it again and again, and finally let Van Nistelrooy play. However, he also replaced Dong Fangzhuo together. Maybe he was worried that Van Nistelrooy and Dong Fangzhuo would not call on the court.

As the saying goes, the east side is not bright and the west side is bright, Rooney and Dong Fangzhuo will go off, and Ruud van Nistelrooy and Saha will play together, maybe there will be another kind of luck.

Naturally, both Rooney and Dong Fangzhuo were not happy about the draw.

The camera took a close-up of the two of them.

It was a bit unreasonable for the two of them to fail to resolve a goal in the half. The two of them sat silently on the bench, watching the game, wondering if they were upset that they hadn't scored just now.

However, Fenerbahce, who played at home, did not concede a goal because Manchester United changed their striker.

Van Nistelrooy and Saha's state on the court is even worse than Rooney's two, they can't even touch the ball! When they were there, at least the number of shots was not low.

There is no way, Ferguson waved the flag again and let Giggs play.

A draw is always shaky.

Decades of coaching experience told him that it is very dangerous to rely on a draw to win the first place in the group...

As a result, Giggs had just replaced Fletcher and lost the ball with his first touch.

At this time, Kleberson and Scholes are both in front of the opponent's big penalty area, and even Ferdinand is still there!

A quick counterattack by Fenerbahce.

Manchester United's goal has fallen!

"Oh, My God!"

"The goal was conceded, which means that if it ends with this score, Manchester United will lose the first position in the group. When they draw for the knockout round, they will encounter stronger opponents."

"It can't end with this score, at least it has to be a draw."

Ferguson has used up three substitutions, so he can only continue to fight with these people.

Dong Fangzhuo and Rooney looked at each other again, and they both saw the regret in the eyes of both sides. Even if one of them scored a goal, Manchester United would not be like this now.

After conceding the ball, Manchester United bombarded Fenerbahce indiscriminately, but Fenerbahce placed a thick bus in the penalty area and resolutely kept Manchester United out.

Ferguson's face on the sidelines became darker and darker, and he froze on the sidelines without saying a word.

In his heart, he played a disgusting game today.

In the end, Manchester United lost an incredible away game to Fenerbahce...

On the plane back to Manchester, the already dull atmosphere was broken by scolding from the club leader.

At the end of the final round of the UEFA Champions League group stage, the final semi-finals of the English League Cup were also determined, and Watford successfully reached the semi-finals of the League Cup.

"Fack!"

"Damn it."

"Why them! Not Watford?"

"who?"

Ferguson picked up his spirits again.

"If it's not Watford, it's just Liverpool and Chelsea."

"yes……"
