The "explosion" sounded like a sound in his ears, and Lin Sen was helpless.

He couldn't stop Scholes' goal, and naturally he couldn't stop the explosion of Old Trafford Stadium, and it was even more impossible to stop the celebration of the Scottish old man not far away. He just felt a little regretful. If he could beat Manchester United three times a season, he would definitely be the God in the minds of Manchester City fans, but now, he is only one step away from God because the real God has stopped him.

To be honest, a draw at Dream Theater is a completely acceptable ending. Although Manchester City is now eager for three-pointers than ever, after all, Chelsea has lost away. Even if it is a draw, Manchester City still expanded its lead against Chelsea. Now, the gap is three-pointers. Moreover, through crazy goals in the first two games, Manchester City has expanded its goal difference advantage against Chelsea by four.

Manchester United's celebration ended and the referee's whistle sounded.

There was another warm applause from the Old Trafford Stadium, which had not yet come out of the goal just now. Linson could accept the draw, and Manchester United could also accept the draw, especially in the draw at the last moment. Manchester City's eight consecutive victories ended in their hands, and the arch-rivals' winning pace slowed down at their feet. This was not the best result, but it was not the worst result.

Lin Sen stood up from the coach's seat. He thought he would hear some gossip. After all, he was so close to Manchester United fans. But no, Manchester United fans focused on the players who were slowly walking back to the player passage at this time, and ignored him, an unpopular guest.

Lin Sen slowly walked down from the stands, patted Robben and Kompany's shoulders coming down the field, and then walked towards Ferguson on the other side.

The old lord is in a good mood.

Lin Sen can see it.

Although it is not a victory, the last-minute goal can always make people feel happy as the benefit side.

Lin Sen walked over and shook hands with Ferguson. He thought it was the same as before, but when he turned around and was about to walk away, the old lord suddenly said, "Drink a drink?"

Lin Sen couldn't believe his ears.

He knew that in English football, there had always been a tradition of head coaches from both sides having a drink after the game, but this tradition has actually become in name only. At least Linson has not encountered anyone who invited him to have a drink this season. Of course, this does not rule out that he is a new face. However, Linson knew that some old-school coaches have always maintained this habit, such as Ferguson. Regarding this tradition, there are countless famous coaches who have been a guest of Ferguson. The most famous one is Mourinho, who has a good personal relationship with Ferguson. Ferguson even joked about Mourinho for this reason, saying that the wine he gave was paint removal agent.

However, even though I know, Linson never thought he would become a guest of Ferguson's honor. It was not because he did not invite Ferguson for a drink last time at the city stadium, but because the relationship between the two teams is really special, such as Wenger and Mourinho. Although they are both Ferguson's opponents, they are just competitive relationships on the court, but Manchester City is different. Both teams are enemies on and off the court.

But now, Ferguson is the first to invite him.

Lin Sen was stunned for a moment. He was even a little uncertain whether he needed to look back, because if Ferguson's words were not what he said to him, then his turn would undoubtedly be very embarrassing, but if Ferguson's words were said to him, then if he did not look back, he would undoubtedly be very impolite.

Embarrassing? Or polite? Lin Sen chose the latter.

Because embarrassment is a matter of moment, but impoliteness will always become your own label.

Fortunately, when Lin Sen turned around, Ferguson's eyes were not on others, but on him.

Lin Sen was immediately flattered.

It is well known that Ferguson has a "drink of a cup" after the game, but in fact, not many people are qualified to be Ferguson's guests. It doesn't matter how you look down on others, but when the other person invites you, it means that you have won the other person's recognition, or in other words, the other person admits that you are an opponent.

There are not many people who can become Ferguson's opponents, so Lin Sen will certainly not reject himself as one of them.

So his answer is, why not.

----------------------

A draw is not the end of the world.

Although Manchester United lost the theoretical hope of winning the championship because of this draw, at the post-match press conference, Ferguson still praised his team and praised the team's spirit of never giving up. Linson, like Ferguson, only praised his team, and never mentioned his opponent. Regarding the goal concealed in the last moment, he also ridiculed himself because Manchester City scored too many goals in the last two games.

A meeting between mortal enemies, the post-match press conference was so harmonious. This is obviously not what the media hopes to see, but they also know that this is actually because of the result of this game. If the game is decided, the post-match press conference will probably be more lively, such as the last match between the two sides, but the result is now a draw. The draw is not the result that both sides want, but it is the only result that both sides can accept.

Having said that, due to the Manchester derby and the match against Chelsea against Tottenham, this should have been a round that could have a huge impact on the championship situation. But now, the top four teams have not won. Manchester City, which only scored one point, has become the biggest winner of this round, because they have finally expanded their leading advantage.

----------------------

After attending the press conference, Lin Sen walked into Ferguson's office with curiosity.

Although Lin Sen has not seen the introduction about Ferguson's office, it is obviously different from walking into this office by someone else's introduction.

This may be the office where many English coaches dream of ending. The decoration is not complicated. It can be simply divided into office areas and reception areas. With Linsen Station, you can look down on the entire court on the left. The office area is located in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. There should be an office area, an office desk, two chairs, and two huge memorial boards. There are many books piled up on the desk, and there are many papers with words on it. Linsen has no doubt that the content on these papers will be somewhat related to his team. Compared with the slightly "chaotic" office area, the reception area seems much more orderly. Sofas, wine cabinets, and TVs are all available.

Just as Ferguson, who was the owner, walked to the wine cabinet, Linson had already looked at the entire office, and like all those who walked into the office, his eyes finally stopped on the photos on the wall. The most familiar ones about these photos are the Manhattan Workers, which are almost half a sentence, half a wall: hanging from an iron beam of 800 feet high and a few inches wide, a group of simple construction workers sat calmly and shared lunch. Their goal was to build a 70-story skyscraper.

In such a photo, you can find too many commendable things, trust, collaboration, confidence, and working together... It is not difficult to understand why Ferguson likes this photo, just as he said to former Manchester United goalkeeper Butters: This is Manchester United.

"It cost me fifty pounds." Holding a bottle of red wine and two goblets, Ferguson walked to the sofa and sat down and said. Obviously, he was used to Linson's interest in this photo, because it became a routine for almost everyone who walked into his office for the first time.

"I don't have this kind of luck." Lin Sen took his eyes back from the photo at this time and shook his head.

"There will be." Ferguson handed Lin Sen a glass of red wine and said with a different smile.

"I hope so." Lin Sen smiled and took the red wine, and then the two raised their glasses together.

"What do you think of this wine?" After drinking, Ferguson looked at Lin Sen and asked with a smile.

“…Uh, not bad?”

Lin Sen had to admit that he had not studied red wine too deeply. Red wine is always related to taste, and even the steps of drinking are strictly particular. Lin Sen knew this, but if he wanted to tell the year and origin of the wine by taking a sip of wine, Lin Sen would never reach this level. Moreover, Lin Sen did not think that Ferguson invited him here today to discuss the wine culture with himself, so he answered half-jokingly.

"Haha, you don't have to hesitate so much." Ferguson laughed, "Do you know who gave this bottle of wine? Jose Mourinho."

Lin Sen was a little surprised, but couldn't help but smile, because he knew the rumor, so he said, "I'm very sure this is not a paint remover. Sir."

"Haha." Ferguson still laughed, "That's just a joke. Mourinho is an interesting person, he won't mind."

"I believe it." Lin Sen nodded and smiled.

"Do you know why I chose this bottle of wine? Lin."

"Because of this game?"

"No, no, no..." Ferguson shook his head repeatedly, "This is just a very ordinary game. I chose this bottle of wine because you are the youngest head coach I invited, Lin. Moreover, you give me the feeling that it is really similar to Jose. That guy was much more arrogant in his first season in England, but he was indeed a very special person. He caused me to suffer a lot that season, but off the court, we still became good friends, and I like his frankness. By the way, I remember when you were with him at the last coaching meeting?"

"Yes." Lin Sen nodded, "I had a fight with him once when I was in Spain, well, it was just a warm-up match."

"The result?" Ferguson seemed to be interested.

"Two to two." Lin Sen shrugged his shoulders and said.
