The first 15 minutes of the second half has been much more open than the first 15 minutes of the first half of the UEFA Champions League match between Marseille and Manchester United, featuring a lot more determination and forward thinking from Andre Ayew and Lucho Gonzalez for Marseille. The hosts have been the much better and much more ambitious side so far in the second half, and Alex Ferguson will be thinking about changes he can make.
Marseille Vs. Manchester United: Anticipating Changes And Chances After 60 Minutes
One player on his bench that could make a serious influence is Paul Scholes. United have not been passing well to start the half, and their lack of creativity in the center of midfield looks like it could be catching up with them. Their one-trick pony offense, hitting through balls to Nani, appears to have lost its effect. The introduction of Scholes could go a long way towards getting Dimitar Berbatov and Wayne Rooney more involved in the game.
On the other side, the home fans let out a massive cheer when Mathieu Valbuena got off the bench to warm up, and he could be a great substitute if Deschamps feels like going for the jugular.
