Chapter 604 Foul
Because the last round started at the same time, when the match between Leeds United and Manchester United started, the match between Chelsea and Liverpool on the other side also kicked off.

Of course, neither Li Yi nor Ferguson had the energy to pay attention to other teams at this time, so both sides' attention was on the court at the moment.

Li Yi likes to take the initiative in his own hands, so Leeds United launched the first wave of attack immediately after getting the opening ball, and Manchester United seemed to have expected Leeds United's initiative.

Well, it can't be said to be predictable, because the opening attack has always been Li Yi's consistent method, whether it was in Cagliari or later in Real Madrid and now Leeds United.

Therefore, Leeds United's opening attack did not gain much. Manchester United's defense line can be said to be the best in football today, and Vidic and Ferdinand were even blown away.

So far, Manchester United has conceded 37 goals in the first 22 rounds of the league. This conceded goal ranks second among the five major European leagues, only one more than Bayern Munich, which dominates the Bundesliga.

Not to mention the gap between the Premier League and the Bundesliga, look at the Champions League, Bayern Munich is out, and Manchester United has entered the final, but because the Champions League final is ten days after the last round of the league, Manchester United have enough things to adjust, so they can go all out for this game.

Leeds United's first wave of offense failed to form a shot, but Manchester United's first wave of counterattacks failed to threaten Leeds United's goal. Manchester United's defense is indeed one of the best in Europe, but Leeds United's defense is not bad.

Pepe has been baptized in the Premier League last season and has made rapid progress. Although Kompany was injured for a season in Hamburg, the injury this season also made him more mature. Now the two have cooperated for a season, and they have a tacit understanding and strength.

Therefore, in the opening few minutes, the two defense lines of Leeds United and Manchester United performed well, and because of the outstanding performance of these two defense lines, neither Leeds United nor Manchester United could really threaten each other's goals.

This situation lasted until the 8th minute before it changed. Ronaldo held the ball forcefully, Rooney pulled the side to support, and then the two hit the wall to cooperate with Ronaldo to rush into the penalty area with the ball to complete the first shot of the game.

It's just that the quality of Ronaldo's shot was not high. Although Cech made a save, he didn't touch the ball because Ronaldo's shot hit outside the goal frame.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, but after the first time, the next step becomes much easier. After 3 minutes, Manchester United made a comeback. It was still Ronaldo, but this time Ronaldo chose to pass the ball to Rooney.

This season is the season of Ronaldo's real rise. The battle between the European duo started from this season, and Ronaldo is also the beginning of his brush career.

But at Manchester United, under the pressure of Ferguson, Ronaldo did not dare to play as independently as he did later. Perhaps this is also the reason why he wanted to leave Manchester United.

Because in Manchester United, the team will always have only one voice, and that is Ferguson, even if you are the core of the team, even if you lead the team to win the league and the Champions League.

In Manchester United, Ferguson has always been an iron-clad player, and as a proud man with great ambitions, Ronaldo's departure is actually predictable.

Rooney's kick this time is much better than Ronaldo's previous kick, but Adler's outstanding performance still made Rooney's shot return in vain.

On the sidelines, Ferguson has been staring at Adler at the moment. Speaking of which, he has been paying attention to Adler for a long time. If it weren't for Van der Sar's good state, Ferguson would have made a move last summer.

And this season, Adler has proved that he is definitely not a flash in the pan, and his performance in Leeds United is getting better and better.
Moreover, Adler can not only have outstanding performance, but also has excellent leadership skills, which also makes Ferguson even more excited.

Adler in 85 is only 23 years old now. If Manchester United can really bring Adler back to Old Trafford, then Manchester United will not need to worry about the team's goalkeeper in the next ten years.

And with the passing of this season, Van der Sar is one year older. Although Van der Sar is still in excellent form, but at Van der Sar's age, no one can guarantee that he will maintain his current state next season, so buying a new goalkeeper really needs to be put on the agenda.

Ferguson was considering poaching Leeds United's feet, but Li Yi had no such thoughts, because Leeds United's first shot had not yet come.

As the saying goes, there must be echoes if you never forget, the game came to No. 15 minutes, Leeds United finally ushered in the first shot of the game, and directly activated the card used in this game.

Beckham took the ball across the half-court in the middle, then passed the ball to Modric, who dribbled the ball into the hinterland of Manchester United, and then intercepted by Carrick.

And this time Modric didn't seem to have the intention of passing the ball, and directly dribbled the ball to force Carrick, but in fact it was just Modric trying to confuse the opponent. He was waiting, waiting for his teammates, waiting for Bell on the left.

When Modric rushed into the hinterland of Manchester United with the ball, Bell had also started and used his speed to wipe out Wes Brown, and Modric was waiting for this opportunity.

With a diagonal pass, Modric passed the ball to Bell. At this moment, Bell has come outside the penalty area line on the side, and he only needs to take another step to enter the penalty area.

"Go inGareth Bale rushed into the penalty area, this is Leeds United's chance" When Bell rushed into the penalty area, Brown was still far behind.

"OhDangerousRio Ferdinand, he rushed towards BellHe fell to the ground and shoveled." However, other Manchester United players were also dissatisfied. When Bell approached the goal with the ball, Ferdinand rushed over directly and made a very fierce and dangerous tackle.

At this moment, Bell showed a calmness and composure that did not match his youth. I saw the Leeds United teenager control the ball with his right foot, then turned halfway and pulled the ball to the side.

"Foulred cardpenalty" Immediately, the loud and loud figures of Leeds United fans rang out from the stands of the Elland Road Stadium.

But it's useless even if the pass is passed, because Ferdinand's foul is not controversial. He didn't touch the ball and directly tackled Bell.

So the penalty kick cannot be run away, and the referee Clattenburg also directly awarded a penalty kick, but Ferdinand did not get a red card, but the yellow card must not be escaped.

Naturally, Leeds United would not be satisfied with this. The fans expressed their dissatisfaction with boos, and Li Yi, the head coach of the team, rushed out to put pressure on the fourth official.
