The incident of Sir Alex being "humiliated" by the media provoked a fierce backlash from the Red Devils and the fans!
When the second leg of the Champions League semi-final arrived, the Red Devils fans put on a magnificent cheering posture at Old Trafford.
Every Red Devils fan would never forget the miracles Ferguson had created for Manchester United in the past.
There were countless reversals in the league and a huge counterattack in the competition for the championship. In the twenty-odd years that Ferguson had been in charge of the Red Devils, he had endured hardships and kept a low profile. His explosive outbursts after accumulating strength could always shock the world!
There was a kind of spirit called the Red Devils, a kind of belief called the Red Devils, and a kind of unwillingness called the Red Devils!
Old Trafford was like a grand devil's party tonight, with demons dancing wildly!
The fans cheered together in an orderly manner in the stands, and the momentum was monstrous!
This was the home ground of the Red Devils!
When Liverpool and Manchester United walked into Old Trafford together, the Red Army players could feel that the atmosphere in the stands today was completely different from the past.
It was not just hatred between mortal enemies!
Evil energy overflowed!
They did not walk into a dragon's lair or a tiger's den, but a devil's lair!
This would bring them a certain amount of mental pressure, but the Red Devils held their heads high and their fighting spirit was shocking!
"Welcome to the Old Trafford stadium. Today, the second leg of the Champions League semi-final between Liverpool and Manchester United will be played here.
In the previous round of the game, Liverpool defeated Manchester United 1: 0 in Anfield and temporarily took the lead in the overall score.
Today, Manchester United had to defeat Liverpool at home to advance to the Champions League final. This was a difficult challenge for Manchester United, who had recently lost two games in a row, while Liverpool's momentum was so stable that it made people's hair stand on end.
The atmosphere at Old Trafford today was extraordinary. The Red Devils fans shouted themselves hoarse in the stands. They held up slogans to support Ferguson and also to cheer for the Red Devils to reverse Liverpool's victory. Such an atmosphere had not been seen for a long time.
Many Red Devils legends had criticized that the atmosphere at Manchester United's home ground could not be compared to the past in the past few years. But today, the Red Devils fans used their actions to cheer for their beloved team. They believed that this would inject a strong mental strength into the players.
Let's take a look at the starting lineup of both sides.
Manchester United starting lineup: 442.
Goalkeeper: Edwin van der Sar.
Defenders: Valencia, Rio Ferdinand, Vidic, Patrice, Evra.
Midfielders: Nani, Carrick, Scholes, Park,
Forwards: Rooney, Hernández,
Liverpool starting lineup: 433.
Goalkeeper: Reina
Defenders: Johnson, Skrtel, Agger, Baines.
Midfielders: Mascherano, Alonso, Alonso, Alonso, Gerard
Forwards: Kuyt, Raul, Qin Xiong.
What was more surprising was that Liverpool played 442 at home in the last round, but today they played a somewhat aggressive 433 in the away game.
Manchester United's lineup today has clearly strengthened the midfield. Let's see how the game between Liverpool and Manchester United will turn out. "
Before the game started, Comain's face became extremely gloomy for a moment on the sidelines.
He secretly cursed in his heart, Damn the reporters! Damn the media!
If it weren't for the media making trouble out of nothing, I'm afraid it wouldn't have provoked such a huge backlash from the Red Devils fans!
Ferguson, as the godfather of the Red Devils, has come to this day. Whether the Red Devils win or lose, he is the unshakable god of Manchester United!
The media's provocation and humiliation will only make Manchester United more united!
The atmosphere at Old Trafford today was simply full of blood. Although the attitude shown by the Red Devils fans and players was not to swallow Liverpool in one breath, they certainly had a more positive impact.
Manchester United played a one-sided flying wing tactic at home today.
Ferguson used Valencia to withdraw to play as a full-back, and Nani could switch between the left and right sides of the front field at will.
There were three players in the midfield, Carrick, Scholes, and Park Ji-sung. Naturally, they were to strengthen the defense and at the same time be able to send artillery to the front line in the middle.
Liverpool's side wanted to increase the diversity of the flanks, so they chose the 433 formation. Kuyt replaced Meireles as the starter on the right wing.
The game began.
Manchester United took the lead at home.
In the fifth minute of the game, Nani controlled the ball on the left side of the front field. He immediately crossed the ball to the middle in the face of Kuyt and Johnson's double team.
Seeing that Park Ji-sung was about to touch the ball, Gerard met Park Ji-sung to prepare to intercept.
But Park Ji-sung missed the ball when it rolled over!
He ran forward without stopping as he missed the ball. Gerard immediately stopped and turned to follow Park Ji-sung.
The ball that was missed rolled to the feet of Scholes. He kicked the ball out and passed it straight to Rooney, who ran into a gap in front.
Rooney was on the right side of Mascherano. He dribbled the ball one step to the right to widen the distance between him and Mascherano. He swung out a gap and kicked straight into it.
Hernandez inserted diagonally behind Agger, close to the end line, turned halfway and directly volleyed the ball!
It was a nearly zero angle place to start the ball.
Reina blocked the near corner of the goal. Looking at the ball flying over with great force, Reina blocked the ball out of the end line.
Hernandez ran out of the end line, picked up the ball and threw it to the corner area.
Nani went to kick the corner kick. Nani's pass fell into the penalty area. Vidic, who plugged in from the back, won the fight with Skrtel. Unfortunately, he headed the ball too high!
The Red Devils' momentum at the start of the game was indeed a clear improvement compared to the past two games, losing to Arsenal in the league and losing to Liverpool in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final.
But Liverpool would not be intimidated by Manchester United's momentum.
The two teams were mortal enemies. Every time they played each other at Old Trafford, the momentum created by the Red Devils fans was magnificent enough. With Liverpool's revival, regaining the league title, and successfully defending the title in the second year, Liverpool came to Old Trafford with a certain sense of superiority.
Now it was Manchester United who was going to overthrow Liverpool's rule in the league!
Ferguson's bold words of kicking Liverpool off the throne were shattered just as they were about to be realized!
When it came to the glory of the Champions League, Manchester United itself was not as good as Liverpool!
Trying to intimidate Liverpool with just the home atmosphere?
It was simply wishful thinking.
Liverpool quickly launched a quick attack.
In the eighth minute of the game, Qin Xiong dribbled the ball after receiving Alonso's pass from the flank in the middle of the backfield.
Nani was shaken off by Qin Xiong's sudden burst of power in the middle of the pressing.
In the process of pushing forward to attack, Scholes assisted in defending the flank. Qin Xiong quickly dribbled the ball to the flank, and then he ran out of the sideline first and used his right foot to kick the ball inside the line. Scholes did not expect Qin Xiong to play such a bold and risky ball in such a narrow space!
After Qin Xiong broke through Scholes, all the players in Manchester United's rear defensive line tensed up.
He was at it again!
