Chapter 270 Rooney!(1/2)
At the end of the first half, Klose's goal helped Manchester United take the lead.
This really made many people unexpected.
After the game restarted, Manchester City launched a fierce counterattack, trying to equalize the score before the end of the first half.
But unfortunately, there is too little time left for them.p>
Rongguang's shot in the 44th minute was shot out of the baseline by Van der Sar, and then Manchester City's corner kick was taken directly from the air by Van der Sar.
Until the end of the first half, Manchester City was unable to equalize the score.
So at the halftime, Manchester United fans were very happy, their singing rang out in the sky, while Manchester City fans were a little silent.
The players on both sides are relatively calm. Whether it is the leading Manchester United or the lagging Manchester City, their expressions are normal when they are off the court.
Especially Manchester City players, they did not feel upset after losing the ball, and they seemed very calm when they ended up.
There are still forty-five minutes left, and no one can say what will happen in the second half.
We are all professional players who have been through the battlefield for a long time, and a single ball will not make them mess around.

During the halftime break, Ferguson praised the team's performance in the first half and made adjustments to the tactics. Manchester United will play a defensive counterattack in the second half.
After leading with one goal, Manchester City will definitely do their best to attack, so there will be a lot of room behind them...
These spaces can be used.
So in the second half, Manchester United's main attacker will no longer be Klose in good condition, but... Rooney!
Rooney has speed, and he and Nani will be Manchester United's two powerful weapons in defensive counterattack.
Klose will play the role of feinting, attracting Manchester City's defense for Rooney. When Manchester City players focus on Klose, Rooney will naturally gain more space without anyone being guarded.
This is Ferguson's wisdom.
When Klose was in great shape and had just scored a goal, he dared to abandon Klose's attack point and turned him into a feint.
Then hand over the goal task to Rooney.
This is a very risky move.
Rooney is in a sluggish state this season due to contract renewals and other issues.
His performance was not very good at the World Cup last summer, and his performance when he returned to Manchester United was still very bad.
After twenty-six rounds in the league, Rooney scored five goals...
This is really terrible for Rooney, who has just completed a contract renewal with Manchester United and has a weekly salary of 250,000 pounds...
But even so, Ferguson still firmly handed over the heavy responsibility of scoring in the second half to Rooney.
This shows the confidence of the old Lord.
He firmly believes that his approach will definitely catch Manchester City off guard!

After the two sides changed sides and fought again in the second half, from the scene, Manchester United and Manchester City had a chance, which was evenly matched.
Manchester City has set up heavy troops on Klose to prevent this star in a hot state from scoring another goal.
But the result of this was that Rooney was missed.
Rooney, who played as a midfielder in this game, was almost invisible under the light of Klose.
But in the 52nd minute, he suddenly appeared!
Manchester United launched a fast attack at that time.
Nani ran wildly on the sidelines.
On the front line, Klose also tried his best to run forward, as if he was trying to receive Nani's cross.
Klose's header was very good, so Manchester City's defenders followed Klose.
But when Nani was about to run to the bottom line, she suddenly passed the football to the middle.
But it was not passed to Klose. Klose was almost at the back point at this time, but Nani's pass was passed behind him!
Before Manchester City's defenders could react, they saw a red figure jumping high near the penalty spot in Manchester City's penalty area.
Then in the air a very stretched upside-down gold hook!
“ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONY!!!”
With John Motterson's roar, Rooney swung his right foot and kicked the ball from Nani firmly towards the goal!
Faced with such a quick and sudden barb, Joe Hart didn't even make a save, and the football rushed into the net!
"Oh! It's amazing! Oh! It's amazing! Oh! The incredible great goal!" John Motson exclaimed repeatedly, just like an orgasm.
And the climax was even greater than him, Manchester United fans in the stands at Old Trafford Stadium.
At this time, the entire Dream Theater can only hear the cheers of Manchester United fans like tsunamis.
"Roonie! Rooney! Rooney! Rooney!!"
These Manchester United fans kept shouting the name of goalkeeper Rooney.
Rooney also seemed very excited. He got up from the ground, rushed to the billboard outside the bottom line, then braked suddenly, spread his arms, straightened his body, raised his head, leaned back slightly, and seemed to listen to the hug and cheer.
Finally, he was so intoxicated that he lay on the ground.
Been pressed by other excited Manchester United players.
Although Rooney was reunited by his insatiable greed when he renewed his contract.
But when Rooney announced his successful contract renewal with the club, Manchester United fans immediately gave him applause.
After all, after Cristiano Ronaldo left the team, Rooney was the only player who could help Manchester United stand at the star level.
Klose is good at strength, but he is still inferior to Rooney in terms of star temperament.
Moreover, Rooney is not only Manchester United's number one star, but also the number one star in England.
So Manchester United fans are quite happy that Rooney finally chose to stay.
Now they were even more excited to see Rooney score such a beautiful goal.
In the same city derby between the two sides last season, Rongguang scored a very, very beautiful inverted hook goal. That goal is considered the most beautiful goal in the Premier League in the past decade.
Now Rooney has returned him with an equally beautiful inverted hook ball, and Manchester United fans are proud.

"Rooney's goal helped Manchester United take a two-goal lead at home! This is still rare in recent times between the two teams - Manchester United can actually lead Manchester City two goals! Their recent form is indeed very good!"
John Motson said excitedly.
He is not a Manchester City fan or a Manchester United fan.
But if Manchester United can beat Manchester City at home, the final Premier League championship this season will definitely be very good.
He hopes to see that happen.
If Manchester City always stands out and throws everyone behind the butt and eats dust, and has no hope of catching up with them at all, then the game will not be good.
So he is inclined toward Manchester United in his heart, hoping that Manchester United can win.
Manchester United has led the lead with two goals now, and it seems that there is really hope!

After Rooney scored, Ferguson was even more excited than Klose's goal. He hugged the people around him directly on the coach's seat, his white hair spread out and drifted in the wind.
His cheeks also turned red from excitement.
The TV broadcast gave him a close-up shot.
This old coach encountered a powerful challenge from Manchester City, his arch-rival in the city in the late stage of his coaching career. He has been under great pressure from Manchester City in the past two seasons.
Now he finally takes revenge!
During his career as Ferguson coaching Manchester United, he had encountered many difficulties and was challenged by countless powerful enemies. But now he is still Manchester United's head coach, so he can know that all the hurdles have come.
He was almost dismissed for his poor performance in his early days at Manchester United. At the most critical moment, he defeated Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup and successfully extended his life.
He was once snatched by Blackburn after winning the first Premier League championship. But now Manchester United is the overlord of the Premier League, and Blackburn has long since lost the capital support of the Iron King.
He also encountered the challenge of Newcastle led by Kevin Keegan in the league, but Ferguson used psychological tactics to successfully collapse Kevin Keegan himself and his team.
After Wenger coached Arsenal, he ushered in a ten-year enemy. During that period, every match between Manchester United and Arsenal was the hottest game in the entire Premier League. Arsenal once won the championship with an unbeaten record in the league. But now Arsenal has not won for many years, and Ferguson's Manchester United is still the overlord of the Premier League.
Mourinho's Chelsea once gave the old Lord a headache. Manchester United, his subordinates, once lined up to welcome Mourinho's champion. However, a few years later, Ferguson asked Mourinho to take Chelsea to welcome the champion Manchester United in the exit.
Ferguson has come over so many difficulties and always takes the position of a winner.
Now, perhaps the threat that Manchester City has brought him is about to become a thing of the past. He has found a way to deal with Manchester City, and he wants to grab his Premier League champion from Manchester City this season!

Manchester City fans seemed a little frustrated as Manchester United celebrated wildly.
