Chapter 348 Ending the Blues’ 40-Game Unbeaten Streak

"If Manchester United cannot withstand it at the last moment, it must be because of too many yellow cards and non-combatant attrition! Smith used this game to prove that he is fully qualified to play the role of midfielder. Maybe Ferguson can reconsider Smith's future. Although he failed in the competition with Chelsea for Ballack, I also saw a different Smith in this game."

"If Smith can play at such a level every time, why think about Ballack? He can even forget about it." Lineker began to encourage Smith and took the initiative to recommend Smith's midfielder to Ferguson.

It is true that Smith's performance today was indeed very good, with almost no faults. If he did not have that yellow card on him, he would definitely be able to play the entire game.

Now he can only sit on the bench and worryly watch his teammates play.

Chelsea's mad attack continues.

In the 68th minute, Duff passed into the penalty area from the left. Drogba stopped the ball with his right foot, turned around with his left foot, cleverly got rid of Vidic, who rarely made mistakes in this game, and then passed the ball on the left side of the penalty area. , Lampard's shot from the left edge of the penalty area was blocked by Edwin van der Sar, and Chelsea once again missed a must-goal opportunity.

Lampard has taken eight shots in this game, but still failed to send the ball into the gate guarded by Van der Sar. And Van der Sar also cheated today, and his performance was astonishing. He has saved a dozen Chelsea shots...

In the 69th minute, Lampard took a left corner kick. This time it was Dong Fangzhuo's turn to head back to defend, but his header was not far away. Joe Cole volleyed from the edge of the penalty area on the right!

But the ball was blocked and cleared again by Park Ji-sung who flew up!

call!

All the Manchester United fans could no longer sit still. Manchester United had been bombarded by Chelsea for more than 20 minutes. The goal was crumbling. They saw that their hearts were surging and their hearts were beating faster and faster. They could not sit and watch the game at all.

The only thing they have left is that they just hope that Manchester United can withstand Chelsea's crazy attack and no longer hope for another goal.

Ferguson was walking around on the sidelines, and the mood of all the Manchester United fans was the same. They didn't expect that his 19th anniversary would be so crazy.

This may be one of the craziest games he has ever experienced in his life, just like the 1999 Champions League final.

In the 70th minute, Duff made a pass from the left, and Sylvester finally let go. Del Horno's flying shot from 6 yards in front of the central goal was slightly higher than the crossbar.

"Chelsea missed another chance to equalize!"

"Del Horno still can't get the ball into the goal! The Chelsea players are going crazy!"

71st minute,

Duff made a pass from the left and O'Shea headed the ball to clear the ball. Joe Cole stopped the ball continuously on the edge of the penalty area in the middle and reluctantly turned around and volleyed but was confiscated by Edwin van der Sar.

In the 72nd minute, Manchester United finally got a chance to counterattack. The ball passed to Ronaldo's feet. Ronaldo used all his strength to break through Del Horno! Then he immediately crossed the middle, and Rooney ran desperately to the middle, and finally shot 30 yards in the middle before Lampard!

After the shot, Rooney fell directly to the turf.

He tried his best, but the game only lasted 72 minutes. You can imagine how fierce the game was, and how much Manchester United paid in the passive situation.

Rooney's shot was slightly higher than the crossbar and did not pose any threat to Chelsea. Chelsea made a comeback.

In the 74th minute, Del Horno counterattacked Ronaldo on the left. After passing Ronaldo, he saw Duff in front of him, and then quickly passed the ball directly to him. Duff passed the ball and Joe Cole was in the penalty area. The shot from 14 yards in the middle was blocked. Lampard passed the ball back near the bottom line on the right side of the penalty area. Park Ji-sung made a clearance before Drogba!

Mourinho covered his head on the sidelines, unable to believe that such an attack was ruined by Manchester United again.

Then Wright-Phillips replaced Joe Cole. Although Joe Cole had no physical strength, he still rushed off the field because there was not much time left for Chelsea.

In the 77th minute, after Phillips came up, he immediately used his speed to break through Park Ji-sung. Even if Park Ji-sung could run again, he could not keep up with Phillips in terms of absolute speed, so he chose to pull Phillips down.

At this time, Dong Fangzhuo had already withdrawn into the penalty area and joined the team's defensive camp. Now Manchester United must work together to ensure that the goal is not lost.

Duff passed a free kick from the right into the penalty area, and Gudjohnsen nodded the ball in front...

"Drogba!"

"Dong!"

The main forwards of the two teams collided hard, and neither side retreated at all.

In the end, neither of them benefited.

The ball fell at Silvis' feet and he cleared the ball.

Mourinho then used the third quota, and Carlton Cole replaced Del Horno. The former also brought Mourinho's "little note" to captain Terry...

In the 79th minute, Gala fouled Ronaldo and was given a yellow card.

In the 80th minute, Duff made a direct pass to the left side of the penalty area, and Gudjohnsen's breakthrough was shoveled out of the baseline by Vidic.

Duff took a corner kick, but the ball was cleared by a Manchester United player again.

In the 81st minute, Wright Phillips' 26-yard shot from the right was confiscated by Edwin van der Sar.

"Wardfalk."

"A few minutes left to end the game!"

Anxious Manchester United fans kept urging time to go faster.

They had never seen such a long game, and it was Manchester United who was beaten by their opponents.

I have never seen this before after watching a Manchester United game for so long.

In the 84th minute, O'Shea made a long pass from the midfielder. Terry barely made a save under the pressure of Park Ji-sung. Dong Fangzhuo made a smart comeback and his low shot from 22 yards in the middle was blocked by Ferreira!

After this attack, everyone suddenly discovered that the only players that Manchester United invested in the attack were Park Ji-sung and Dong Fangzhuo, and even Ronaldo didn't come up...

When he could get this corner kick, Vidic also chose to stay in the backcourt and did not come up.

In Chelsea's penalty area, there are only poor Dong Fangzhuo and O'Shea.

Rooney took a left corner kick, and Carlton Cole hit the ball in front of him. The ball was suddenly redirected, but Dong Fangzhuo missed the ball from a distance. It can be seen that Dong Fangzhuo was also a bit overwhelmed...

In the 87th minute, Cristiano Ronaldo, who had become increasingly silent, tripped the breakthrough Gudjohnsen in front of the penalty area. Lampard's free kick from 25 yards on the left hit the wall and popped out of the baseline!

"Can you keep an eye on me?"

"Only a few minutes left."

"Manchester United's penalty area is full of heads, and it's difficult for Chelsea to find opportunities."

Duff took a left corner kick and was immediately cleared by Vidic's header, but it fell at Makelele's feet. Makelele volleyed from 25 yards in the middle!

Off the mark...

In the 90th minute, Gudjohnsen's pass from the left side of the penalty area was blocked by O'Shea.

4 minutes of injury time!

This stoppage time is too long.

Dong Fangzhuo had already retreated into his own half, and he used his only strength to try to stop Chelsea's advance on the first line.

In the 93rd minute, Chelsea was still attacking and they still did not give up.

Ferreira on the right rushed forward tenaciously and finally got the ball...

Bang——

Dong Fangzhuo rushed over and used his last strength to knock Ferreira down.

The referee Bol took out the last yellow card of the game and gave it to Dong Fangzhuo...

In the end, Chelsea lost by 1 goal away from home.

This was Chelsea's first defeat of the season, and the Blues' 40-match unbeaten run came to an end at Old Trafford.

Manchester United finally defeated Chelsea at home at the cost of 7 yellow cards...
