"Genius performance! How did Rossi get there?"

"The Italian helped Manchester United take the lead in the total score! This is likely to be the goal that kills the suspense!"

"I don't know what God is thinking, but everyone, history has really repeated itself! It was Downing who scored twice last season, and now it's Rossi's turn!"

Hudson's words are nothing short of adding insult to injury for all Leeds United fans in the field.

Cumming's red card and penalty had already given them a curse-like fear, and Rossi's second goal almost sentenced Leeds United to death.

The visiting team's stands were silent, as if time had been suspended. They were lifeless and soundless, forming a sharp contrast with the red color that filled the home team's stands.

The ones who are more deeply affected are the young players on the field.

Johansson and Cook stood on the court in a daze. In fact, even the two parties involved did not understand how Rossi passed.

This gives them a deep sense of powerlessness - it doesn't matter if your opponent wins, but the scary thing is that you don't even know how your opponent wins.

Blackman was a little depressed and kicked the ball that was still in the goal. For this substitute goalkeeper, it was really difficult for him to face such a desperate situation as soon as he came on the field.

The ball hit the net hard and spun for a while before it ran out of kinetic energy and was ready to fall.

Blackman, who had not finished venting, was waiting for another kick when a figure appeared in front of him.

The opponent directly hugged the ball that had not yet fallen, tucked it under his arm, and then turned around.

"Li..."

"Are you all scared out of your wits?" Levi yelled at his frustrated defense teammates, "Is the game over? Ah? Get back to your positions!"

Levi himself, carrying the ball, trotted all the way to the center line.

The Leeds United defenders sobered up a lot after his drink, and each returned to their own defensive zones, but the fear and retreat in their hearts could still be seen from the expressions on their faces.

Levi, who was running, didn't expect to regain the courage of his teammates by shouting. It would be good to at least make them sober.

If you want to get rid of their fear, you must do something.

He slightly slowed down the pace of running towards the center line and used this time to think about counterattack strategies. However, he still maintained a running state because he had to make this gesture to let his teammates know what he must do next.

We fought against time.

In fact, as early as when he conceded the first goal, he was thinking about counterattack and asked the coach for advice. But what he didn't expect was that the Manchester United people's control was so terrible. In more than 20 minutes,

, he almost couldn't find a chance, and the result was delayed until the second goal was conceded.

But now, we must risk everything!

※※※※※※

About the time he reached the center circle, Levi made up his mind.

He waved to Sinclair and Ward, who were nearest, and got together with the two of them to discuss his plan.

"Isn't this too risky?" Ward hesitated.

"We have no time, Marcus. If we can't use the last few minutes of the first half to recover a point, the second half will be even more difficult." Levi's tone was firm.

"Lee is right. The Manchester United people haven't reacted yet, but in the second half they will definitely change their strategy and strengthen their defense. That would be really bad." Sinclair quickly understood Levi's intention and said helpfully.

"But don't you need to confirm with the coach?" Ward still has some questions.

"There are only five minutes left before halftime, Marcus, we have no time to waste," Levi said without hesitation and directly gave the solution, "If someone happens to be on the sidelines when the ball is dead, you can follow.

Please confirm."

Ward no longer insisted, and the three immediately reached a consensus and hurried away to convey their thoughts to other teammates.

……

After the restart, it was discovered that the formation of the Leeds United youth team had been adjusted. Andy Walker, who originally retreated to the wing-back, and Levi, who was the defensive midfielder, both moved to the center line. Judging from their positions, the two players

Now it's more like a midfielder.

Coupled with the forward Kevin Sinclair, the number of Leeds United players involved in the attack has reached three.

However, this is not surprising. The side that is lagging behind in the total score, even if there is one less player, has to strengthen its attack. At most, Leeds United's adjustment is a little quick.

On the coaching bench, Manchester United youth team coach Paul McGuinness did not make any tactical response to this. He did not even stand up, but just sneered disdainfully.

On the one hand, it was because halftime was coming soon, and any adjustments would be easier to communicate and arrange during the halftime break. On the other hand, he really didn’t think that just adding one or two people to a makeshift offensive line would be enough.

What threat does it pose to Manchester United’s proud defense?

And this is indeed the case. In the next few minutes, both Levi and Walker seemed to be a little uncomfortable with their new positions, so that instead of organizing a decent offensive, Leeds United was almost beaten by their opponents several times.
p>

In the 43rd minute, Tom Heaton took a goal kick. Sidwell grabbed the spot and played a one-two with Shawcross. He got rid of the oncoming Ward and then passed the ball directly.

Rossi in the frontcourt.

Rossi looked up and saw that due to the reduced manpower in the backcourt, Leeds United's backcourt seemed quite empty, and there was a considerable gap between the two central defenders.

Rossi didn't hesitate, and immediately went straight to the middle. Bolger had already intervened at high speed.

However, Bolger's stop in the penalty area was a little too big, and Johnson, who was being defended, broke the ball and missed the sideline.

Even so, the fans of Leeds United were already breaking out in a cold sweat - if one more goal was scored, it would be doomed!

……

But Manchester United's offensive was not over. The ball was thrown from the sideline. Rossi got the ball and stood still. After attracting the defense of Adams and Prowse, he suddenly turned around and passed through the gap between the two people.

Cut all the way inside the penalty area.

Leeds United's defense was facing a formidable enemy. Johansson came over to defend immediately, but Rossi did not fight with him and directly passed the ball to Sidwell at the arc of the penalty area in the middle.

Facing the goal, Sidwell attracted the defense of two Leeds players, but he directly chose to pass the ball in the direction of Rossi, who quickly moved forward without stopping after the ball was distributed!

At this time, the entire Leeds United defense line has been left behind by Rossi!

Fortunately, Rossi's last shot hit the post, and the "bang" sound was like a sound of nature to the young players of Leeds United.

……

However, although he escaped by chance, everyone could see that Leeds United's formation changes in the past few minutes were quite unsuccessful. With the number of defenders reduced, Rossi gained a fatal space.

Rossi, who could have done a dojo in a conch shell, is now even more at home, seeing his hat trick coming soon!

……

Stredford in the stands was so excited that he couldn't sit still. His eyes kept glancing in Andy's direction, for fear that he would sneak away without paying attention.

No, this is still not safe!

Stredford made up his mind that as long as Manchester United scored another goal, he would not wait any longer and could go directly to ridicule his enemies, so as not to have to stare at them all the time.

In fact, Stredford's worries were completely unnecessary. Andy and others were like eggplants beaten by frost at this time, slumping listlessly on their seats. How could they think of slipping away?<

/p>

If Leeds United really loses the game like this, it seems that Andy and the others will inevitably be humiliated and ridiculed.

※※※※※※

"What are they doing!" On the coaching bench on the sidelines, David's assistant Steve pointed one finger at the players on the field and roared angrily.

David didn't say anything, but his frown betrayed him, and it was clear that he was not at peace in his heart.

"How can they make their own decisions?" Seeing that David didn't respond, Steve then complained, "No! I'm going to stop them!"

With that said, he walked towards the command area.

"I'll go." David stretched out his hand to stop him. He wanted to hear the plans of these little guys with his own ears.

Taking advantage of the gap when Rossi's shot missed the baseline and caused a dead ball, David called Walker on the wing in the command area.

"Andy, what's going on? Why did you adjust your tactics without authorization?"

"Ah! Boss," Walker was surprised when he saw it was David and hurriedly told Levi's plan in detail.

At this time, Steve also walked to the command area and heard Walker's story.

"No! This is too risky, please stop!" Before he could finish listening, Steve had already shouted.

But David stopped him and patted Walker on the back:

"Go ahead, Andy, do as Li says."

Walker was originally startled by Steve, but after receiving David's instructions, he ran away without hesitation. At the same time, he also made a gesture to his teammates on the field to indicate that the leader had agreed.

……

"David, don't you think Lee's plan is too risky?" Steve said angrily on the sidelines, "Why don't you wait until halftime to make adjustments?"

"It's too late, Steve," David smiled bitterly, "Lee is right, if we don't seize these few minutes to get a goal back, we will be even more passive in the second half!"

"But I think it is more likely that we will score another goal!" Steve still insisted on his opinion.

"What risks can't we take, Steve?" David said. "You and I both want to adjust during halftime. I think that old fox next door, McGuinness, must be thinking the same way, but

What if we have to rush to adjust before halftime? Will the opponent be caught off guard?"
