Chapter 267 Ibrahimovic: Did God hear the fans' prayers? No! It was I who heard them!



"Damn it, Cristiano, are you not wearing your shooting boots today? How could you miss that shot like that?!"

Ferguson walked back to the bench from the sidelines with a displeased expression.

That was a very good attacking opportunity for Manchester United; Scholes' precise through ball broke through Sunderland's defense.

Unfortunately, Ronaldo's shot was a bit off target, and the ball grazed the Sunderland goalpost and went out of play.

Ferguson was sitting on the bench when he saw Scholes pass the ball well, so he immediately rushed to the sidelines. But Ronaldo's shot at the end made him walk back, cursing.

Ferguson is in a hurry.

The news that Leeds United had also taken the lead had been on his mind.

After the start of the second half, he would occasionally glance at his assistant, Ferran, but Ferran would only shake his head slightly and remain silent.

But this time, as soon as Ferguson sat down on the bench after returning to the sidelines, Ferran excitedly came over.

"Alex, good news!"

Sheffield United have equalized?

"They've taken the lead!"

"What? Did I hear that right?!"

"You heard me right. Maybe it's because of the bad signal, but I just received two text messages in a row! It turns out that Sheffield United equalized at the beginning of the second half, and just now, they've taken the lead!"

Ferguson was overjoyed by Phelan's words, and the unpleasantness caused by Ronaldo's missed shot vanished from his mind in an instant.

Today, all ten Premier League matches started simultaneously, even though the progress of each match differed, with some matches having longer and shorter stoppage time.

But overall, the final end time should be roughly the same for all of them.

Ferguson looked up at the electronic display screen above Old Trafford.

A surge of excitement welled up inside me.

With about twenty minutes left, will the Premier League title, which they haven't won in three years, be back?

kindness!

Judging from the current situation, there's a high probability they'll come back!

Elland Road Stadium.

The atmosphere in the stands was somewhat somber, although some fans were still doing their best to cheer on the Leeds United players.

However, some fans still stared blankly at the stadium, having long lost their previous passion, and an indescribable sense of despair began to spread in the stands of Elland Road.

Li Shiguang is alright.

Although they were a little anxious, the players' fighting spirit did not diminish after the game restarted; on the contrary, it seemed to increase even after they fell behind.

This gave him a glimmer of hope!

In the 66th minute, Sneijder received a pass from Modric, dribbled past two players outside the penalty area, and unleashed a long-range shot, which went just wide of the goal.

Two minutes later, Alonso passed the ball to Reus, who replaced Bale, and the young German dribbled the ball quickly down the left flank to near the Sheffield United byline.

Facing Morgan, who was marking him, Reus cut past the defender and broke into the penalty area, then passed the ball back to Modric, who was following up on the edge of the penalty area.

Unfortunately, Modric's shot deflected off Kilgouron and went out of bounds!

However, Leeds United's attack did not weaken despite the lack of results.

In the 76th minute, Reus once again made a strong breakthrough to the byline and then made a sliding pass, accurately sending the ball to Ibrahimovic's feet at the near post. Unfortunately, Ibrahimovic's close-range goal was blocked by Kenny with his left foot and went out of bounds.

····

"Ah—Zlatan!! So close!!" Reinkel could hardly believe his eyes, clutching his head and screaming in agony, "What did Kenny do today? How could his reaction be so fast!"

Beside him, Jon, who had been keeping an eye on the situation at Manchester United, could only smile wryly after Ibrahimovic's shot was blocked: "Not counting stoppage time, there are only 13 minutes left in the game. To be realistic, Leeds United's hopes are really slim!"

····

If Li Shiguang could hear what Qiao En said, he would definitely give Qiao En a big slap on the wrist immediately.

Because for the next ten minutes or so, Leeds United really did all talk and no action.

They took a shot almost every minute, but just couldn't get the ball into Sheffield United's goal.

Before they knew it, the 90-minute match was about to end, and the fourth official had already raised his sign on the sidelines.

Five minutes of added time!

Li Shiguang noticed this and looked up at the big screen above Elland Road Stadium.

kindness!

Before we knew it, the match had reached the 89th minute.

To be honest, Li Shiguang was also a little panicked.

Although as the head coach, he tried his best to control his emotions and facial expressions, time was passing by.

The team has been unable to score a goal for a long time.

Even though Li Shiguang's expression remained calm, his constantly shifting feet on the sidelines betrayed him.

····

Gradually, some fans in the stands stood up and slowly walked towards the stadium exit.

They were so disappointed.

I thought I would finally witness the team I've followed my whole life lift the league championship trophy after more than a decade.

But in the end, this was the outcome.

They can't accept it!

In the past, they might have stood in the stands and yelled at the players and coaches.

But now, they would rather leave early to combat their disappointment than do that.
