Godfather Of Champions

Although this attack did not score goals, it allowed the players of Nottingham Forest to regain their confidence. Manchester United's fierce offensive was broken by them, and it is difficult to trap them.

Nottingham Forest is a fierce tiger that can be trapped for a while, but not for a lifetime. Ferguson understood this. So when he saw Nottingham Forest attack fiercely, he felt a little worried. He didn't know if it was an occasional counter attack or a continuous attack... He decided to continue to observe.

※※※

Van Nistelrooy took the ball with his back, Rio Ferdinand was very tight, he was not sure to turn around and not lose the ball, but Ferdinand wanted to easily break the ball under his foot, I am afraid it is not easy.

With the football under his feet for a while, Van Nistelrooy decided to forcefully turn around and thrust in. The result was no suspense, he was brought down by Ferdinand outside the penalty area.

This is the best result. When Van Nistelrooy got the ball, it was not easy to break the ball under his feet. This center has superb ball handling ability. Although he is 1.88 meters tall, his skills at his feet are very delicate and practical.

Ferdinand fouled, and Nottingham Forest once again won an offensive free kick.

This time it was only 22 meters from the goal, which was very close. Free kicks are not as close as possible to the goal. For most free kick shooters, 25 to 30 meters is probably the best range. If the distance is too close, the football may not be able to bypass the wall. If you want the ball to bypass the wall, it may fly directly out of the bottom line.

Beckham walked up again holding the football, and he had to punish himself. Bell also walked up, but not to punish, but to cover Beckham.

"David Beckham took the initiative to apply for the kick again. He didn't score two free kicks before. Manchester United's wall knows his free kick very well-five people blocked the goal."

When Beckham bowed to set the football, he became the focus of attention. There are still boos and applause in the stands. Manchester United fans love and hate this man, and their psychological feelings are complicated.

In the summer of 2003, he left here for Madrid, Spain, and has been on separate sides ever since. Every time he was unhappy at Real Madrid, there would be rumors that he would return to Manchester United, but he and Ferguson were always both denied. It's not that Beckham doesn't want to return to Manchester United, but he knows very well that as long as his wife Victoria is still with him and Ferguson is still coaching at Manchester United, he will never return to Manchester United. Ferguson will not be interested in a player over 30. Unfortunately, he is 33 years old this year.

He felt that in his career, he would never have the opportunity to wear Manchester United's red jersey. After the contract with Nottingham Forest ends, if he can still play, he is likely to go to the United States to play for another two years and completely announce his retirement. Ferguson said that if Beckham hadn't been with Victoria, he might have achieved even higher achievements. But Beckham didn't know what a higher achievement was. In addition to national team honors, he has received all the honors a club player can get.

However... it has never been recognized and respected by more people. When everyone mentions David Beckham's name, they always think of the flashy star who is only a commercial catwalk. This is why he chose to join Nottingham Forest.

In a blink of an eye, a season is about to pass. He had a good time in Nottingham Forest. Except for his injuries, he got plenty of playing time. The most talked about this season is not what business events he attended. It's his performance in Nottingham Forest.

It’s really good to use the game against Manchester United to summarize this season.

I love Manchester United, but now I play for Nottingham Forest.

Set the football, Beckham got up and stepped back.

This Manchester United team is very strange. There is only one old friend in the five-person wall, Scholes. Giggs is on the bench, and Gary Neville is also on the bench.

This may reduce Beckham's psychological burden a bit.

He stood in front of the football, waiting for the referee to blow his whistle.

The chief referee felt that the human wall was standing too far before the test, so he stepped forward and asked the human wall to retreat to his designated position. Manchester United's wall moved back slowly, and Ronaldo moved the slowest among the crowd. He slid his head, waited for the referee to turn around, and moved a little forward, and stood a lot forward when he slid. Nottingham Forest players reported to the referee and expressed their dissatisfaction. The referee had to turn around again to signal Ronaldo to retreat, otherwise he would give a yellow card.

Ronaldo retreated back into the wall with time.

This is actually a kind of psychological warfare, using this repeated behavior to bring certain psychological pressure to the player who takes the free kick, causing him to play abnormally.

But his set seemed useless to Beckham.

Beckham is the top 7 of Manchester United, Ronaldo just took over Beckham's mantle. Ronaldo soon used his skills to conquer Manchester United fans after coming to Old Trafford. They played the slogan "There is only one Ronaldo", which can still be found in the stands at Old Trafford until now.

This is Manchester United's new and old 7 showdown.

The referee regressed and left this time. Under his watch, Ronaldo did not move.

After a whistle sounded, Gareth Bale started a run-up. He didn't play the ball, just stepped directly over the football. Everyone knows that he is a cover, and Manchester United's wall has not moved at all.

Immediately afterwards, Beckham started up!

The familiar posture reappeared at Old Trafford: the body was leaning to the left parallel to the ground, the arms stretched out, the left foot as the supporting foot twisted and almost broke, the right foot was like a whip Quickly draw the middle and lower part of the football.

The football rose into the sky, bringing up a piece of grass. The human wall jumped upward at the same time. Ronaldo is tall but didn't touch the football. The football that Beckham played bypassed the wall!

The football didn't fly high. After bypassing the wall, it went to the upper left corner of the goal at a very fast speed. Ben Foster fought hard and made a save. Although the football was shot in his palm, Beckham was more powerful than him. The imagination is even bigger. He is not unable to shoot football. The football only changed its direction slightly and hit the net...

After the Old Trafford Stadium was quiet for a second or so, there was finally a sudden resounding... the noise of cheers and boos intertwined.

"Goal scored!! David Beckham! We haven't seen his performance again at Old Trafford for five years. Now he is back, but as an enemy of Manchester United, he takes revenge. The bullet hit the heart of Manchester United! When he was personally driven out of Manchester United back then, Ferguson should be able to guess that one day... one day, he will see this scene!!"

The commentator screamed frantically, and the players of Nottingham Forest were also excited to rush to Beckham.

But Beckham himself didn't have a smile on his face, he didn't celebrate for the goal, or even raised his hand. After seeing the football entering the goal, he turned and walked back. Although he is now a player of Nottingham Forest, in order for Nottingham Forest to win the league championship, he must go all out for this goal, but it does not mean that he will be ecstatic in front of tens of thousands of Manchester United fans after scoring the goal. He scored only because he was a Nottingham Forest player. He chose not to celebrate after scoring because he loves Manchester United. He didn't want to give those people any misunderstandings.

The teammates of Nottingham Forest didn't care what Beckham was thinking at this moment, they rushed to surround him and celebrated loudly.

Even Dunn shook his fists vigorously off the court, cheering for Beckham's key goal.

Surrounded by the crowd, Beckham still did not celebrate, his face was still calm without a slight smile. When the celebrating crowd dispersed, only Van Nistelrooy hooked his neck and whispered in his ear.

No one knew what they were talking about, but only then did Beckham's face show a slight smile.

The two ran back side by side, and the man from Manchester United had placed the football in the center circle, ready to kick-off.

"David Beckham used a landmark free kick to penetrate the goal of his old club Manchester United the first time he returned to Old Trafford. This is really an exciting scene! Manchester United scored two goals with the new No. 7. His predecessors did not show weakness either! Nottingham Forest temporarily trailed Manchester United 1:2 because of this goal, but this goal gave them hope to tie the score. From the overall trend of the game, Beckham scored this goal. The meaning is more than just helping the team get a goal..."

Extreme Manchester United fans are still booing Beckham, while those who are not extreme Manchester United fans are feeling extremely complicated at this moment. Applaud for him? He scored a goal for Manchester United, and it helped the Forest team get rid of its predicament. The importance is self-evident. Hush him? Can't open his mouth. After all, when he was at Manchester United, he brought them countless happy hours, as Keane said in his open letter to leave Manchester United: He made the world like Manchester United.

Seeing him and Van Nistelrooy running side by side from the back is really sad-they were once a member of Manchester United, but now they are Manchester United's number one enemy.

Van Nistelrooy raised his hand and waved to the stand where Forest fans gathered. Beckham next to him hesitated and raised his hand and waved.

Ferguson sat on the coach's bench. When Beckham scored, he didn't even lift his butt. Was he already mentally prepared? Or is it indifferent at all? No one knows the thoughts of this stubborn old man. He will definitely not admit that he was wrong to let Beckham and Van Nistelrooy away, because he personally drove away many people when he coached Manchester United. As a result, some of those people mixed up good and some mixed up bad. Manchester United or Manchester United, with 18 championship trophies standing quietly in the honor room, representing the unshakable status of this club.

※※※

The game continued. Beckham used a goal to save the team's future when the team needed it most. Now the morale of the Nottingham Forest players has been improved. Manchester United wants to use the full attack to suppress the Forest team. It's impossible anymore.

Ferguson also knew this well, so he let the team reclaim, no longer giving the Forest team easy-to-use space. The two sides entangled in the midfield, offensive and defensive. It seems that Nottingham Forest has regained the rhythm of the game, but in fact the initiative is still on Manchester United. Because for the current Nottingham Forest, no matter how much advantage is regained on the scene, the lagging behind is still an undeniable reality. As soon as Manchester United shrinks, the attacking opportunities that the Forest team can take advantage of will be sharply reduced. As long as it continues to deal with Nottingham Forest and drags it until the end of the game, a 2:1 victory can guarantee Manchester United won the league championship this season.

Dunn observed carefully for a while, and he discovered Ferguson's intentions.

Manchester United’s recovery was not because they were afraid of their own offense, nor was it to say that Nottingham Forest’s offense had improved much, but because Ferguson had to completely cut off the forest team’s offensive line, forcing Nottingham Forest and Manchester United to confront each other, fighting positions. War of attrition. When the two sides are pulling each other, time quietly passed...

This will not work. If the game is really dragged to this point, Nottingham Forest's situation is very dangerous. There are now nearly 20 minutes before the end of the game, and ten minutes later, if the score is still this, the players of Nottingham Forest will inevitably become anxious. At that time, the game on the field will be out of the control of his head coach and head towards an unpredictable abyss.

How to do it? Can only continue to urge the players to step up their offense. At the same time prepare for the next move. He called Lennon and Bendtner from the bench to warm up.

If it doesn't work, just attack and give it a go.

To win the championship, Nottingham Forest must try to keep his door in this final time, and then score two goals for Manchester United. This is simply an impossible task.

Compared with the tense Nottingham Forest bench, the atmosphere on Manchester United's bench is slightly more relaxed. After all, even if the game is tied, the champion still belongs to Manchester United. Nottingham Forest wants to win the championship. The conditions that must be met at the same time are too harsh. As Manchester United players, they have confidence in their team. Teams like Manchester United were scored twice by their opponents at the last moment. Such funny things will definitely not happen to them!

※※※

Beckham mentioned the opponent when he was defending Carrick. It seemed that it was just a slight collision. Carrick immediately fell to the ground and rolled over his ankles, his expression in pain. The Manchester United team doctor ran up to diagnose Carrick after waiting for the referee's signal.

Beckham said he kindly stepped forward to pat Carrick, and then told the referee that he didn't mean to.

In fact, everyone knows that Manchester United players will frequently fall to the ground at this time, using all available factors to delay the game. The players of the away team, Nottingham Forest, have no other way but to remind the referee. Manchester United will not get overwhelming boos for doing so, because this is their home court. 50,000 out of 60,000 support Manchester United to win the championship.

Taking advantage of this effort, George Wood gathered the big guys together.

"We must find a way to score." Without any nonsense, he said straightforwardly. "How about more through balls?"

Van der Vaart glanced at him: "That way the turnover rate will increase..."

"It's not okay to be passed around like this." Gareth Bale is on Wood's side.

"Frequent mistakes can also affect morale." Ribery agreed with Van der Vaart.

It splits into two factions so quickly, this is not what Wood wants to see. When he was about to speak, Beckham on one side spoke: "You can have more through balls, draw their defensive attention to the through ball, and then open the gap on the right for me, and give it to me when appropriate. Pass the ball, I think of a way to get the ball into the penalty area."

"Crossing?"

"Yes. Pass in."

"But their two central defenders are very..."

"So they need to focus on the through ball."

Wood thought for a while and thought it could be a try. He nodded and said, "I think it can be a try."

This simple tactical meeting soon ended, because Carrick had already walked out of the field with the team doctor, and the game resumed.

Manchester United's free kick finally landed at the feet of the Forest team players.

Pepe took advantage of Manchester United's defensive focus on Van der Vaart, Ribery and George Wood, etc., suddenly dribbled the ball forward, and after a forcible breakthrough, Scholes fell to the ground and advanced fifteen. Meters, get a free kick.

In this stalemate between the two sides, Nottingham Forest really strengthened the through ball, which can be seen by fools. They are looking for the Manchester United defense line in a thoughtful way. Even if they may be intercepted halfway, the Forest team players are insisting on trying straight. Stuffed.

It is not completely ineffective.

Arshavin received a through ball from Van der Vaart and almost scored. Fortunately, Ben Foster focused and blocked the angle of Arshavin's shot in time, only to start a group of Manchester United fans jumping from their seats.

Manchester United quickly responded to the Forest team's tactical adjustments. They strengthened their defense against Van der Vaart and Ribery and George Wood's pass in front of their penalty area.

In this situation, Beckham on the right was emptied.

As soon as Van der Vaart takes the ball, O'Shea will desperately rush up to him, interfere with him, deny him the opportunity to observe the openness of Manchester United's defense, and then send a very threatening pass.

But this time, Van der Vaart didn't pass a through pass, and after a false shot, he suddenly split the ball to the side.

Beckham receives the ball. Rafinha quickly stepped in and passed by Beckham, attracting the attention of the Manchester United defender, thinking that he was going to pass to Rafinha, and Rafinha would go to the ground or cut inside. Just as Evra retired, Beckham passed in place!

Without giving Manchester United any chance to adjust the defense line, Beckham's cross flew over the heads of the defenders like a precision guided missile, and then appeared on top of Van Nistelrooy's head!

What an old friend wanted to do, Van Nistelrooy knew before he passed the ball, and when he saw him receiving the ball, he always paid attention to keeping parallel with the defender next to him, ready to rush out to grab a point at a critical moment.

This moment really made him wait.

Rio Ferdinand helped to encircle Van der Vaart and Ribery who were on the penalty zone line. Only Vidic looked at him.

But Beckham's pass was too comfortable. Whether it was a Vidic or Vidic and Ferdinand, the ball was delivered accurately. When Van Nistelrooy took off, it was impartial and the time was just right!

Van Nistelrooy jumped in the air, and he could feel Vidic interfering behind him, but the ball in front of him...even if it was interference, it was useless!

Getting rid of Vidic's pull, Van Nistelrooy in the air suddenly exerted his force and swung the header!

Uh!

So easy...

"What_a_GOOOOAL!! Van Nistelrooy-David Beckham's precise pass made him just jump up and shake his head! Nottingham Forest's offense seemed to be attacking the center some time ago, it looks stupid! But this time, the tacit understanding between Beckham's cross and Van Nistelrooy changed everything! Nottingham Forest drew Manchester United 2:2 away! The second half of the game was really dramatic!"

After Van Nistelrooy scored a goal, he did not sullenly celebrate like Beckham. He opened his arms and ran to Beckham, who assisted him with the pass, and Beckham's face also appeared with a happy smile. The two friends hugged each other and were quickly overwhelmed by the other teammates.

Dunn turned his head in excitement. Who would have thought that Nottingham Forest could now tie when Manchester United took a two-goal lead? Do those Manchester United fans start to celebrate in advance? Now call you good-looking!

"Nottingham Forest tied the score tenaciously. With 13 minutes left in the game, it was full of suspense! It seems that Tony Dunn's team does not want to easily give up the league championship trophy. If Manchester United want to defend their title It’s not easy!” (To be continued, if you want to know what’s going on, please visit www.qidian.com, there are more chapters, authors are supported, and genuine reading is supported!)
