Chapter 353 Stud
After many twists and turns, Ferguson returned to the three forwards. His adjustment was bold and thoughtful. When the game resumed, the Galacticos obviously did not expect that Manchester United would attack as soon as the game kicked off.

Shinji Kagawa finally found his chance to shine when the opponent's midfield had already exhausted a lot of physical strength. With his delicate skills and superb passing skills, he became the focus of the court in the first half of overtime.

"Another beautiful pass. Shinji Kagawa's pass went straight through the opponent's block and landed at the feet of his own frontcourt player. Qin Hu turned his back and Van Persie on the left took the ball and started to move forward."

After one hundred minutes of the game, the starting players of both sides had already consumed a lot of physical strength. Van Persie was no exception. After receiving the pass from Qin Hu, he burst forward a few steps and then began to slow down. Fortunately, Coentrao, who was facing him, was in a similar state, and the two finally met on the left side outside the penalty area.

"It's obvious that the tempo of the game is not as fast as in regular time. With the opponent's back line densely packed, Manchester United's offense chose to play it safe. In this situation, playing it safe is indeed the best option."

There is a kind of fatigue that is visible to the naked eye. This is the situation on the court. From the shots and close-ups, fans can easily feel the players' fatigue.

However, at this point, compared to the demand for the excitement of the game, everyone’s expectations are no longer on this. The key is whether the team they support can win.

"He passed the ball horizontally to Qin Hu who was waiting in the middle. Pepe remained unmoved. At the age of 30, his physical fitness declined a little more in front of the young Qin Hu. He let Qin Hu get the ball smoothly."

Facing the man who was like a mountain from beginning to end, Pepe began to doubt his life. He felt that Qin Hu was like a volcano that continued to erupt and never stopped. Now he could hardly keep up with him.

"Pull the ball and try to turn around, continue the confrontation. Although Qin Hu did not score in this game, his role as a center forward is obvious to all. He really turned around! One point to the right, Welbeck rushed to the ball."

The other players in Real Madrid's defense obviously did not expect Qin Hu to turn around so easily under Pepe's interference. When Welbeck got the ball, Varane was even about one meter away from him.

Unfortunately, Welbeck is not a superstar like Qin Hu and Van Persie, and his long-range shooting ability can only be tried occasionally.

"Oh!"

"Welbeck paused for a moment but still chose to shoot, Varane almost blocked the ball!"

"Boom!"

Zhan Jun's voice still expressed emotions, but unfortunately Casillas standing in front of the goal did not give him any chance. He was used to saving Qin Hu and Van Persie's shots, so he was a little uncomfortable facing Welbeck's straight shot because it was too easy to save.

And during the first half of extra time, Manchester United's attack, due to the deliberate guidance of Real Madrid's defense, ended with Welbeck.

Soon, when Welbeck's third shot in these fifteen minutes was once again saved by Casillas, this player who had always been carefree could no longer hold back.

"I can't, I can't get in..."

After seeing Casillas's calm expression after saving the ball again, Welbeck felt the inner demon of his predecessor, Robin van Persie. Ferguson, who was watching this scene, was also a little helpless. He glanced at Rooney who was sitting on the bench and felt a little disappointed for the first time.

If Rooney could be in full form and form a trident with Qin Hu and Van Persie, it is very likely that the team would have changed the score by taking advantage of this period of impact.

Unfortunately, there was no if. The first half of the extra time passed very quickly. Manchester United gained an advantage for a while by changing its formation but did not score any goals. Instead, Real Madrid players took advantage of this time to recover a lot of their physical strength.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the first half of extra time, Mourinho finally turned around and looked at the team's bench. He had two substitutions in his hand but they were not used.

"The extra-time break is very short. Usually, the players of both teams return to the field after replenishing their water. It can be seen that the coaches of both teams have no time to make too many tactical arrangements. However, Mourinho has already arranged the substitutions in advance. He is all in!"

Khedira, who had been eagerly waiting for a long time, stood on the sidelines. Standing side by side with him was Marcelo, the Brazilian full-back who had to stay on the bench for a long time due to repeated injuries in recent times.

"We have used up all the substitutions, with Khedira replacing Modric and Marcelo replacing Coentrao. This is a reinforcement for the team's midfield and defense. At the same time, Marcelo is also a well-known defender with a knife. He has a good ability to make assists."

After all the substitutions were made, Real Madrid's 4141 formation underwent new changes. Modric left the field and Khedira came on as the team's single defensive midfielder. Alonso's position moved to the attacking midfielder position. The strength of this midfielder is self-evident. When he comes to the attacking midfielder position, the team's offense will be greatly improved again.

Such adjustments will undoubtedly increase the changes in Real Madrid's offense. After lying dormant for fifteen minutes to allow the players to recover their strength, Mourinho has made up his mind to decide the outcome of the game in the last fifteen minutes.

"Ferguson also made substitutions after seeing the opponent's adjustments. His last substitution was still used on the team's forward line. Super substitute Hernandez came on the field and the clever Cleverley was replaced."

Heibei was directly pulled to the defensive midfielder position. This dark and tough player has no problem with physical strength and confrontation. Since the offense cannot create a goal, he will participate in defense.

The player, who was already a little overwhelmed by the attack, naturally wanted this very much.

"With this adjustment, it seems that Ferguson is prepared to continue the team's forward attack and suppress the opponent in the second half of extra time, but will the Galacticos continue to let them do so?"

The answer is naturally no. When the game started again, the four Real Madrid players whose presence suddenly disappeared in the first half of overtime came out again. Little Smoker Higuain took the lead, followed by Ronaldo, Kaka and Di Maria. Behind them, Long Ge Alonso was as steady as a rock and kept passing the ball.

This situation was even more severe than that of Manchester United. For a moment, because the opponent controlled the ball, the entire Manchester United team had to quickly retreat to defense. At such a time and at such a stage, any defensive mistake could be fatal.

"The offensive and defensive forces are different! Real Madrid also began to launch an extremely fierce attack after the substitution!"
