Ferguson stood in the home team coach's command area with his arms folded across his chest, his body upright, and his mouth constantly moving and chewing gum.
From his profile, you can see his calmness and calmness, as well as his strategizing of the game.
The game reached the 25th minute of the second half.
Manchester United was leading the field, 2:1, and their own side still had the advantage in numbers.
Thinking of the humiliating record against the damn Portuguese Mourinho in the past, he I can't find any reason to let them go at this time.
Kill him while he's sick Ferguson waved his hand on the sidelines, indicating to the players on the field to continue to strengthen the attack.
As Manchester United's offensive pace accelerated, Chelsea's defense began to falter, but fortunately their adjustment ability was first-rate.
After learning from the loss of the ball just now, they quickly made self-adjustments and allowed Manchester United to play the ball from both directions, but Cutting inside is not allowed close to the goal.
Because Manchester United's two forwards, Rooney and Tevez, are not the kind of strong point-grabbing forwards, it is quite difficult to grab a header under the double-teaming of Terry and Ben Haim.
Chelsea's two wingers, Ashley Cole and Ferreira, always stick to the space in their own defensive ribs when defending, leaving both sides to Cristiano Ronaldo and Giggs, giving them space to pass the ball.
As mentioned before, Rooney and Tevez are not purely point-grabbing forwards.
They are forwards with a wide range of activities, which means they need space to exert their maximum energy.
Of course, high-quality crosses are not in this category, but the probability is still too low after all.
Now that Chelsea’s penalty area is full of players inside and outside, where is the space they need?
Therefore, Manchester United also changed their offensive thinking.
They no longer blindly cross the ball from the wing, but use the combination of wing and center.
If there is a chance, Carrick and Steers will try their luck in the middle.
But the result was not good.
In the blink of an eye, the game has reached the 80th minute.
The situation on the field is still biased towards the home team.
After all, there is one more player on the field, which means there is one more route for passing and receiving.
And this advantage becomes even more obvious when defending, because Chelsea previously replaced the winger with a central midfielder in order to make up for the loophole of Mikel being sent off.
Therefore, it is destined that they will not invest too many troops in the offense.
It is difficult for Aiello, Shevchenko and Joe Cole to knock on the door of Manchester United.
Mourinho looked up at the big screen above the stadium.
The time had reached the 81st minute of the game.
Then he turned to look at the situation on the field.
Manchester United still occupied the initiative on the field.
Even Leo The two central defenders, Ferdinand and Vidic, have already crossed the center line, and the two full-backs, Brown and Evra, are acting as wingers.
Seeing this, Mourinho seemed to see hope of equalizing the score, because Manchester United suppressed Chelsea for a long time, which led to a psychological relaxation in defense, so that two ribs were left open when the offense turned to defense. come out.
Of course, Ferguson also saw such an obvious gap in the ribs, but because of the team's long-term suppression, he selectively ignored this, because Manchester United had continuously pressured Chelsea's defense for more than five minutes. .
Moreover, in nearly half an hour of the second half, Chelsea did not have a few counterattacks.
They were basically strangled in the cradle by the players on the field.
Aiello, who is known as the biggest threat to Manchester United's defense, did not even touch the football.
Several times, so Ferguson was a bit careless.
Mourinho quickly turned around and shouted to his assistant Villas-Boas: "Tell Claudio and Salomon to get ready to play." ah Villas-Boas was stunned subconsciously.
Is it crazy to bring in two forwards to strengthen the attack when he was being beaten in the away game?
This is not like the Jose Mourinho he remembers.
It seems even crazier today "Is there a problem?"
Mourinho asked when he saw Villas stunned.
"Ah, no, no," Boas shrugged and ran to the warm-up area to call Pizarro and Kalu after he came to his senses.
Mourinho looked at Villas' back and shook his head, then turned his head and continued to look at the court.
Two minutes later, Pizarro and Kalou stood next to the fourth official, waiting to come out.
Since there is no dead ball on the field, if you want to make a substitution, you can only wait for the next dead ball.
The director at Old Trafford reacted quickly.

It was Carrick who had the ball on the field.
He was still about 35 meters away from the Chelsea goal, so he switched a camera and showed it to the fourth official on the sidelines.
This change of lens immediately aroused the analysis of commentators from various countries in the studio.
"Is Mourinho finally preparing for a last-ditch effort?
But that's right.
He is still one goal behind with one less player in the away game.
Anyway, losing by one goal is a loss.
Losing by two goals is also a loss.
Why not replace two defenders?
Come to strengthen the attack.
Maybe if you are lucky, you can score two more.
In short, everything is possible."
"Pizarro and Kalu are ready to play at the same time.
This is an obvious signal to strengthen the attack.
It's just about which two players are replaced.
Two defensive players are removed and two forwards are replaced to change the field.
If the situation is not adjusted, their comprehensive defensive capabilities will inevitably be weakened. " "Chelsea will make personnel adjustments.
Which two players will be replaced?
Aiello cannot be replaced because he has the greatest deterrence.
In addition, he is not physically exhausted now and can still rush.
After a rush, Shevchenko is very likely.
After all, he was too inactive in these 80 minutes.
Pizarro replaced Shevchenko, and Kalu replaced the unreliable full-back.
Ferreira?”
Commentators are making various speculations about Chelsea's upcoming substitution adjustments.
The Manchester United players on the field also seemed to want to know how Chelsea's substitution adjustment would be carried out, so Scholes directly chose to shoot from 30 yards in the middle.
Although it seemed a bit blind, the quality of the goal was really good.
Not bad, just two goals wide of the goal post.
Then the referee blew the whistle to indicate the substitutions on the sidelines.
The result was that Joe Cole and Shevchenko were replaced, Pizarro and Kalu were replaced, and two forwards were replaced with a center and an attacking midfielder to strengthen the offensive number in the frontcourt.
"Do you want to fight to the death?"
When Ferguson saw this substitution, there was an obvious arc in the corner of his mouth, obviously full of ridicule at Mourinho's substitution.
Mourinho's substitution will inevitably change Chelsea's formation from the previous 432 to the current 423, which means that as the game progresses, Chelsea's frontcourt position will be out of touch.
However, Mourinho obviously thought carefully and never thought of passing through the midfield.
Instead, he directly launched a long pass counterattack from the backcourt to reduce the time for the football to pass through the midfield.
After all, Aiello, Pizarro and Kalou are all tall men over 1.8 meters.
In addition to being slightly disadvantaged in the aerial battle in the middle, the header battles between the two wingers are still very advantageous, especially Aiello.
On the left wing, he has excellent bounce and anticipation.
Brown can't get any advantage from him at all.
The following game was inconsistent with the views of many commentators on the scene, because as Chelsea's tactics changed from complex to simple, the threat became greater, the division of labor became clearer, and the offense was left to Aiello, Pizarro and There are three Kalu, and the defense is handed over to four defenders and two midfielders.
On the contrary, the threat of attack increased dramatically.
Aiello's combat effectiveness also gradually emerged.
After becoming silent after scoring the first goal, he began to slowly show his worth at Old Trafford.
First, he overpowered Brown and tipped the ball to Pizarro.
The latter kept shaking the outside of his instep for a one-two, and then suddenly took a long shot thirty meters away from the goal.

If not for Van der Sar's wonderful With the save, Chelsea had equalized the score.
Then in the corner kick attack, he used his abnormal jumping ability and judgment to head the ball towards the goal before Vidic and Rio Ferdinand.
This time it was Van der Sar's wonderful save that saved the ball.
No one expected that at the end of the game, Chelsea would turn the tables with one less player.
In the 87th minute, Terry overpowered Cristiano Ronaldo in the penalty area and pushed the ball out of the penalty area.
Makelele was stuck at the front of the penalty area, making it impossible for Scholes to step forward.
Then he passed the ball to Westeros who was free.
Deville, who passed the ball directly to his own offensive left without stopping the ball.
Brown, who has gradually given up his career as a winger, tensed up and was retreating with Aiello, preparing to compete for the ball.
Of course, as he was retreating, his right hand secretly grabbed Aiello's jersey behind his back.
As long as he made the slightest movement, he would pull it to the ground mercilessly.
For a foul here, the referee would not show his card at all. , not even a warning is given.
Brown slowly backed away with this idea, but Aiello's next move made him a little unable to react, because while slowly retreating, Aiello suddenly stopped, leaned his back against Brown, and looked up at the ball.
This change made Brown depressed, but he also raised his head to look at the football flying in the air, which was too high.
Are you really so confident in your jumping ability?
Even if you have your current jumping ability and Yao Ming's height, you still can't compete with football, right?
But Ai Luo's next move made him suddenly enlightened.
Ai Luo leaned against Brown and looked up at the football in the air.
He seemed to be preparing to jump for the ball, but then he suddenly dodged to the right.
Brown was originally going to interfere with Aiello's take-off, but Aiello's sudden dodger just now caused his body to subconsciously bump into Aiello.
But is Aiello so easily knocked away?
The answer is naturally no.
Brown's collision not only failed to knock Aiello to the ground, but also caused the rhythm of his feet to become chaotic, and everything developed in an unpredictable direction.
Coupled with Ai Luo's own balance ability of 84 and agility of 88, it fully demonstrated its due role at this time.
Seeing that he was about to lose his center of gravity, Brown realized the consequences of Ai Luo rushing forward, so he squeezed his entire body weight on Ai Luo, trying to knock the latter to the ground, but he ignored Ai Luo.
Luo's explosive power.
Especially the energy that burst out in a short period of time was quite astonishing.
Aiello kept his right elbow close to his body, resisting Brown's impact and accelerating forward.
As Aiello moved forward, Brown's center of gravity gradually shifted, and what was waiting for him in the end was to fall to the ground.
Suddenly, a burst of exclamations erupted from the stands
