Chapter 870

On the eve of the FIFA Golden Ball Awards, the FA Cup battle between Manchester United and Liverpool was equivalent to an appetizer, attracting the attention of fans around the world.

This is just a third round of the FA Cup. Compared with the game itself, fans are more concerned about the performance of Ferguson nemesis Daglish and Golden Globe candidate Gao Xiaodong.

Gao Xiaodong has entered the list of the last three candidates for the Golden Globes this year. Although it is not the biggest favorite, because Iniesta and Xavi are in the same team, it may cause the source of votes to be diverted. Gao Xiaodong has a great hope of winning the Golden Globes. It is definitely a big deal to be able to watch the future performances of Mr. Golden Globes before the awards.

Although Daglish has not coached for 12 years, he has won 4 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses in all competitions against Ferguson. In addition, Daglish has won three league championships, 2 FA Cups and 2 Community Shield Championships, far exceeding Ferguson who has won nothing. Now Daglish comes out again. Whether it is Red Devils fans or Red Army fans, they want to see what kind of sparks the two world-class coaches can collide.

On the night of the 9th, the Old Trafford stands were crowded, which was even more lively than the league's Double Red Club.

"The Red Army is finished! It's useless for Daglish to come out!"

"Daglish is still very good."

"Daglish is Liverpool's spiritual opium. In what era is it, what else can that kind of thing that can bring blood to the chicken"

"I hope that the Lord will teach the King of the Red Army to be a human being."

"The Red Devils are strong now, what's the Red Army? If you don't win more than three goals today, you won't win."

"Xiao Dong must score a goal! Tomorrow is the Golden Globe Awards, and it's a good choice to score a goal."

"Xiao Dong's hat trick, the last time the Double Red Club seemed to have a hat."

...

"We still have the strength, but the coach didn't find the right one. When the king comes, I believe it will bottom out and rebound."

"The king is Ferguson's nemesis. Since he dares to come out, he will definitely have a way to deal with Ferguson."

"Just get a draw and go back to home to eliminate Manchester United."

"I think it's very lingering. The king has just arrived and it's impossible to have an immediate effect."

"There is a great possibility of losing this game, but the process is more important than the result."

"Manchester United definitely wants Gao Xiaodong to score, we must stop Gao Xiaodong!"

"You can't let Gao Xiaodong score even if you lose!"

...

Manchester United fans in the stands were talking enthusiastically. Because of the Double Red Club in the first leg of this season, Manchester United slaughtered Liverpool 7:2. In this game, Manchester United fans were very confident and did not care that the Reds invited Ferguson nemesis Daglish to coach, while Liverpool fans also had great fantasies about Daglish's coaching.

As the saying goes, changing coaches is like changing swords. Daglish is Liverpool's hero and spiritual leader. After he took office, Liverpool's mental outlook has improved greatly compared to before. Whether it is a young player or an old player, he is full of fighting spirit when playing.

When Daglish came to the coaching seat, Ferguson took the initiative to shake hands with him, "Kenny, I didn't expect to meet you again on the court."

Daglish smiled and said, "Yes, I didn't expect that I thought we would meet at that racecourse or cocktail party."

Ferguson said: "I wish you good results."

Daglish smiled and said, "I hope there will be a good start today."

Ferguson smiled faintly, "Every team dreams of winning here, but unfortunately no one has achieved his goal this season."

Daglish smiled and said, "Then talk on the court." After that, Daglish walked back to his seat slowly.

Looking at Daglish's back, the smile on Ferguson's face gradually solidified. He knew very well what kind of opponent he was. Even if he had not entered the football world for 12 years, Daglish still had strong lethality because he was a football genius.

Vidic and Gerald exchanged team flags and badges on the field.

Gary Neville has no chance to play, and Vidic now basically replaces Neville's captain's duties as the captain.

Today, Gerald seemed a little over-the-top. After exchanging the team flag and badge, he provoked Vidic and said, "Gary is going to retire, perform better. Man, I hope you will shake hands with me next time."

Vidic sneered, "It won't be better, it will definitely not be bigger than the previous game."

This was heartbreaking. Gerald's face immediately turned dark and he sneered: "Wait, today we will break your invincible golden body."

Vidic said: "Okay, we're waiting."

The captains of both sides returned to their respective halfs. With the whistle of referee Weber, the FA Cup Double Red Club officially kicked off.

The first kick-off was Manchester United. After Berbatov and Rooney touched the ball, the ball was passed back to the midfielder Gao Xiaodong. Gao Xiaodong received the ball and passed it sideways, passed the ball to full-back Evra, and then turned around to respond.

Evra passed the ball to Vidic, and Vidic gave Gao Xiaodong another one. At this time, Liverpool's striker Torres had already come up to press.

Gao Xiaodong stopped the ball with his right foot, and he wanted to make a fake move to pull the ball to the right, then pulled the ball with his left foot, turned around from the left side, and shook the Torres who was pressing.

The action was very freehand and relaxed, and Manchester United fans in the stands couldn't help but applaud.

"Beautiful to get rid of!"

"This is the style of a Golden Globe winner!"

"It's very light, Gao Xiaodong is so skillful!

"Xiao Dong is showing her strength."

...

Gao Xiaodong heard the applause, but he had already gotten used to it and was not affected. After turning around, his eyes quickly captured the gap in Liverpool's defense.

The game just started, and the distance between Liverpool's central defender and full-back was slightly larger, while Berbatov ran alertly between central defender Ag and full-back.

Gao Xiaodong was ready to pass the ball when he saw the gap. When he saw Berbatov running towards this position, Gao Xiaodong secretly praised him, "No matter how lazy you are, Brother Xiaosha's ball quotient is really high."

Gao Xiaodong did not hesitate and hit the gap between the full-back and the central defender without hesitation, looking for Berbatov.

When Berbatov was running, Ag saw it. He rushed over and the full-back Kelly was also pulling in, hoping to form a siege against Berbatov when Berbatov stopped the ball.

At this time, Berbatov showed his master-level stopping skills. He just looked back at the ball and saw the fire when he was on the landing point. He jumped up and steadily stopped the ball on his thigh. When he was about to land, he went forward and rushed into the penalty area when the defender surrounded him.

Liverpool central defender Agel knew something was wrong when he saw Berbatov jumping and stopping the ball. He accelerated and rushed towards Berbatov's landing position. When Berbatov was preparing to dribble the ball, he kicked the ball out.

Because Berbatov's body rushed forward again, he just tripped Agel's leg and fell into the penalty area.

"Foof! Penalty!"

"Pedal! Penalty!"

"Stuttering foul!"

"Punishment!"

...

Seeing Berbatov lying in the penalty area, Manchester United fans in the stands immediately jumped up and shouted, putting pressure on referee Weber.
