And waiting over there was Leeds United's right-back, Maicon!
Because Manchester United were using a man-marking tactic in defense, Gary Neville was closely marking Milner, who had run into the penalty area, in the right half, while Giggs was also entangled with Mascherano outside the penalty area. Therefore, Maicon was completely unmarked.
Seeing Ribery pass the ball to him, the skilled and daring Brazilian didn't even bother to stop it. Instead, he used his left foot as the supporting leg, stretched his body to the maximum extent, and with a standard volley, slammed his right foot into the ball.
Maicon's shot was not only extremely powerful but also very low. After flying about 2 meters, the ball changed from a volley to a low shot. Van der Sar, whose vision was obstructed, had no reaction at all until he heard the sound of the ball hitting the net from inside the goal, at which point he realized that a goal had just been scored.
"Beautiful!!!! The second half has just begun, and Leeds United have already pulled one back!!! Maicon!! Maicon!! He scored a brilliant world-class goal!!! And of course, Ribery, he redeemed himself with a beautiful breakthrough and assist!!! 2-1! Leeds United still have a chance!" At the moment Maicon scored, Ere Geddy's passionate voice came through the live broadcast channel again.
"Yeah!" Li Shiguang on the sidelines excitedly pumped his fist, then quickly calmed down and shouted to the players, "Don't celebrate! Get the ball back to midfield and start the game! We still have a chance to win this match!"
Upon hearing Li Shiguang's voice, Milner quickly called to Falcao to retrieve the football still in the net and run towards the center circle.
On the other side, Ferguson frowned slightly. In fact, when he saw Li Shiguang's halftime adjustment, he thought that Li Shiguang had given up on the game. However, he did not expect that after Li Shiguang moved the small player who was in poor form in the first half forward, he was able to bring out his effectiveness. He had to admit that the shot was beautiful, but it all came from the small player's breakthrough.
After a moment's thought, Ferguson called his assistant coach over.
He's getting a replacement too!
