It was difficult to beat AC Milan at home, but for Manchester United, this was a very bad result. Because after going away a week later, AC Milan only needed a 1-0 victory to eliminate Manchester United.

In order to prepare for the team's away trip, Ferguson was determined to give up the weekend league.

However, after some consideration, Ferguson gave up on this idea.

On the one hand, there is an eight-day interval between the second and first leg of the Champions League semi-finals between Manchester United and AC Milan, and even the 36th round of the Premier League match between Manchester United and Everton also has 4 days between these two games. Although the rest time is not sufficient, it is enough for the players to have a certain amount of rest.

On the other hand, if Manchester United wins this game, it is possible to win the league championship directly!

In order to prepare for the first leg of the Champions League semi-final with AC Milan, Manchester United almost gave up the previous 35th round of the Premier League. Chelsea's situation is similar. In order to prepare for the first leg of the Champions League semi-final with Liverpool, they were tied by Newcastle at the 35th round of the Premier League at St James Park.

】

In this way, in the 34 rounds of the two teams, Manchester United won 28 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses and got 88 points, while Chelsea won 24 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses and got 78 points, 10 points behind Manchester United.

As for Liverpool, the third in the league, it currently has only 20 wins, 7 draws, 8 losses, and 67 points, and there is no theoretical possibility of overtaking Manchester United.

Therefore, as long as Manchester United beats the Toffees at Goodison Park Stadium, even if Chelsea beats Bolton at home, Manchester United will still lead Chelsea by 10 points and win the championship ahead of schedule with only 3 games left in the league!

Under such circumstances, Ferguson decided to play in the league with Everton as the main player.

However, considering that Yin Jun played too many games after the New Year, Ferguson did not let Yin Jun start, but was on standby on the bench.

According to Ferguson's idea, if the game goes well, Yin Jun can rest for a game. If the game doesn't go well, let Yin Jun appear at a critical moment.

……………………

The fierce battle with AC Milan in the middle of the week still had a great impact on Manchester United. After the game began, Manchester United players were obviously out of shape, while Everton took the opportunity to take the initiative.

Everton almost scored just 2 minutes into the game. Arteta took a corner kick from the right and came to Scott's header at 4 yards in front of the ball and hit the crossbar and bounced out. Manchester United escaped.

Everton's shot also sounded the alarm for Manchester United players. In the subsequent game, Manchester United players' condition improved slightly, but compared with the home team with excellent form, Manchester United is still at a disadvantage in the situation.

Currently, Everton ranks fifth in the league. Although their hopes of entering the top four have almost shattered, they are still competing for UEFA Cup tickets with Bolton, Tottenham, Reading and Portsmouth. Therefore, in this game, they not only have to prevent Manchester United from winning the cup at their home court, but also work hard to compete for UEFA Cup tickets.

The high-spirited Everton took the lead in the 12th minute of the game. Evra fouled against Arteta, and Stabus shot directly from 30 yards to Carrick and then deflected into the net. Van der Sar failed to save.

Carrick has also been in trouble recently, and he made a mistake in the Champions League match with AC Milan in the middle of the week, and today he indirectly helped his opponent score.

The team was behind away early, which made Ferguson's face look a little ugly. He walked to the sidelines and shouted a few times before returning to the coach's seat.

At this time, assistant coach Mike Ferran told him good news that Mourinho's team was behind at home. This surprised Ferguson and was secretly happy.

As long as both Manchester United and Chelsea lose, Manchester United can also win the championship ahead of schedule.

……………………

However, Ferguson's good mood did not last long, because Chelsea only took 3 minutes to equalize the score at home. Then he overtook Bolton in the 34th minute of the game.

However, although Manchester United once formed a siege against Everton, it was difficult to break through Moyes' iron barrel formation, which made the old man look at his Scottish fellow villager a little unkind.

In the end, Manchester United ended the first half with a 0:1 disadvantage.

During the break, Ferguson criticized the players in the locker room, but he did not make substitutions in the midfield.

After the start of the second half, Manchester United strengthened their attack. But luck is really elusive. Manchester United, who attacked Everton's goal, has not scored yet, but instead allowed the opponent to score a second goal through a quick counterattack.

In the 50th minute, Everton intercepted the backcourt, Arteta made a straight pass, Fernandez shot a fury shot from the edge of the penalty area on the right, Van der Sar failed to save, and the score on the field became 2:0.

Ferguson could no longer sit still, and immediately signaled Queros to ask Yin Jun and Ronaldo to get up to warm up and prepare for the game. The old man was worried that if he didn't make any adjustments quickly, he would probably not need Yin Jun and the others to appear.

Just as Yin Jun and Ronaldo were warming up on the sidelines, cheers suddenly sounded in the area where Manchester United fans were located in the stands, which made Yin Jun and Ronaldo a little puzzled.

But Ferguson on the coach's bench got the news: his old friend Allardyce helped him away, and Bolton tied the score to 2:2!

……………………

In this way, Ferguson was not in a hurry to let Yin Jun and Ronaldo appear in a hurry, but planned to let them warm up on the sidelines for more time.

While Yin Jun and Ronaldo were warming up on the sidelines in an orderly manner, Manchester United finally scored a goal.

In the 61st minute, Manchester United got a free kick opportunity on the right side of the frontcourt. Giggs took the penalty and chose to directly attack the goal. Everton goalkeeper Turner made a mistake in receiving the ball. O'Shea made a free kick from 6 yards and entered the net, rewriting the score to 2:1. International practice, the home team was in the front.

At this time, Ferguson decided to substitute the guy.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Yin Jun and Ronaldo came on as a substitute at the same time, Evra and Alan Smith were replaced. Manchester United changed to 352, and Ferguson planned to give it a try.

As the team's two core players, Yin Jun and Ronaldo's appearance directly changed the situation on the court. Manchester United began to attack Everton's goal and continued to put pressure on.

Manchester United's offense had just ended. The home team's goalkeeper hugged the football, and then he tried to throw the ball with his hand to launch a quick counterattack. However, Everton's counterattack was intercepted just as soon as he reached the midfield, and Manchester United's offense came again.

Rooney received the ball with his back near the midfield. He did not choose to stop the ball, but headed the ball directly, and then people saw Yin Jun running quickly and catching up with the football.
Chapter completed!
