Chapter 184: The perfect first half

When it comes to defense, Sanetti may not be as good as Simeone, but his characteristics are very good at killing Tiger. Tiger's personal breakthrough lies in his unpredictable fake moves and extremely deceptive extraordinary moves. Tiger trained in the main god space may not be top-notch, but seize a tiny loophole to make a breakthrough - Sanetti may not be as good as those top players in defense, but his characteristic is that his center of gravity is stable, he is not easy to lose the center of gravity, his reaction speed is not slow, and his tenacious personality does not give up. This determines that even if he is freed by Tiger, he will immediately entangle Tiger and let Tiger fall into the quagmire again.

The second time he dribbled the ball, Tiger threw away Sanetti for a while, but soon the Argentine caught up, entangled Tiger from behind, and continued to collide with her body. Tiger began to have a hint of affection for the calm Argentine. He could feel that Sanetti was the most formal and non-foul body collision, without small movements, and she exuded such a dignified look, which was very different from the Argentine defensive players in Tiger's impression.

Tiger has never played against Argentine players before, but he has also heard of the bad deeds of many Argentine players in defense - such as their most famous defender, Pasarella, the head coach of the Argentine national team at the 1998 World Cup. When he defended, he often put a needle on his shorts, and then when defending the opponent, he used his thigh to hit the opponent, and the needle would stab the opponent in the body to distract the opponent and break through the opponent - of course, this is just a legend, and few people came out to testify that this matter was true...

Beckham's description of Tiger is - "There are too many small moves in those Argentine bastards." In the World Cup, it was precisely because of Simeone's ubiquitous small moves that made him lose his normal heart and eventually took revenge and ended up with a red card...

When confronting this Sanetti, Tiger really didn't notice what small moves the other party used.

Thinking of this, Tiger suddenly stopped suddenly, threw Sanetti away for a while, then raised his foot and passed the ball to the side!

Although he had a great interest in fighting with the opponent, Tiger still remembered the tactics arranged by Ferguson before - after attracting the opponent to the middle lane, he began to attack through the wing lane!

When Tiger was moving forward, West had already come forward from the front. With Bergomi and Simici back to the middle defense, Inter Milan's wing seemed so weak!

The ball flew to Beckham's feet accurately. Beckham stopped the ball. York in the penalty area had already thrown away Simici's defense through running. Good opportunity...

Beckham made a cross!

The ball drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then flew into the penalty area accurately. The unguarded Cole jumped high and rushed to the top with a fish flying in front of the ball!

The ball flew directly to the upper right corner. Although Paliuka made a save, she still couldn't stop the ball from entering the net!

"goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Dwight York! Beckham's cross is so wonderful. With three defenders in the penalty area, he still found the undefended York's head! Inter Milan's defense is too loose... Their defense this season is very bad, which also makes their performance this season very bad! They performed very poorly in the group stage for a while, and finally got the right to qualify after defeating Real Madrid at home! Just six minutes into the game, Manchester United succeeded through a strong attack!"

Beckham, who assisted, was obviously more excited than York, who scored the goal. He swung his punch down, then raised his hands and roared loudly.

The broadcasting camera also hit Beckham's face in time - the broadcaster clearly knew what the audience was going to watch - at this moment, Xiao Bei's face was filled with a ferocious feeling and the pleasure after venting!

York was also very smart and did not celebrate by himself. Instead, he ran to Beckham after landing and hugged Beckham. At this time, Beckham was the most focused place in the game. The Manchester United fans in the stands did not shout York's name, but shouted Beckham's name - "David! David! You are the number one in the world!"

After the yellow card in the 98 World Cup, Beckham was under a lot of pressure. Although Manchester United fans still supported him, even fans of other Premier League teams began to take his anger. Southampton fans prepared 20,000 red cards before playing against Manchester United! However, under this pressure, Beckham played his highest level. Since the beginning of this season, only two people have performed best in Manchester United, one is Tiger, and the other is Beckham!

Tiger also performed a little fluctuated due to injuries and position changes, while Beckham has performed extremely well since the beginning of this season!

Now, although not wearing the white robe of the Three Lions, nor the opponent is an Argentina team wearing blue and white sword shirts, when facing Simeone, Beckham proved with his own performance that I can win back in the club if I lose in the World Cup!

"Beautiful job, David!" Tiger ran up and hugged Beckham, shouting loudly in his ear.

"It's only one ball! We have to continue attacking and win this game!" Beckham shouted loudly.

"That's right, we want to defeat Inter Milan, enter the semi-finals, and wash away a humiliating record!" Scholes next to him also shouted loudly!

The stands at Old Trafford were filled with cheers and roars from Manchester United fans, while Ferguson waved his fists hard and took the lead in just six minutes of the game. This was undoubtedly a good result. However, there were 180 minutes in the two rounds, and now it is not the time to celebrate!

*********************************************************

Inter Milan launched a counterattack when he was hit by Manchester United at the beginning.

Ferguson said before the start of the game that he must first score goals and use offense to gain an advantage. However, he also knows that breaking through Inter Milan's goal is not too difficult. Inter Milan's defense this season is much worse than last season, but their offense is still sharp. Although Ronaldo is absent due to injury, Inter Milan has too many good offensive players, Baggio, Zamorano, Djokaf, Morero, Zanetti, Simeone... Which one is not a good offensive player!

In terms of offensive lineup, Inter Milan is not much worse than Manchester United, and Manchester United has not been stable since this season!

The next game began to stalemate, Inter Milan tried to launch a counterattack, but their offense was more concentrated in the middle, while the middle was the strongest link in Manchester United's defense. Although Stam was not perfect in cooperation and movement, his front defense was quite outstanding. Johnson was also a powerful defender. In addition, Keane, who swept the front of the penalty area and Scholes, who assisted in defense, although Inter Milan has several top offensive players, he still couldn't shake Manchester United's defense in the slightest!

Manchester United's offense made Inter Milan's Simeone unable to let go of attack, and Zanetti also came to the middle to assist in defense, which made their right-side offense slow. Morero's breakthrough on the left was restrained by Beckham's offense, and Inter Milan's offense was forced to go to the middle. Inter Milan was quite turbulent this season. Hodgson had just taken office and could not quickly organize a team with overall offensive ability. Inter Milan has many stars, but they are more fighting on their own.

Manchester United's offense is more inclined to overall coordination.

However, although Inter Milan's defense this season is very average, no matter what, Inter Milan is also a Serie A team, and their defense is still very strong. Under Bergomi's organization, they have also resisted Manchester United's waves of attacks. Manchester United's shots come more from long shots outside the penalty area. Scholes' long shots are of course very threatening, and Tiger's cold arrows outside the penalty area often make Paliuka nervous - his long shots are not particularly powerful, but the winning angle is tricky, and the rotation of the ball also makes Paliuka easily lose his hands if he is not careful.

Tiger's training in free kicks has not yet been effective, so he still cannot play free kicks like Beckham, which has tricky angles, arcs, strong strength and enough strength. However, the accompanying thing is that his long shots have begun to become outstanding. After all, long shots are not blocked by human walls, which is simpler than free kicks.

It took more than half an hour to get the first half of the game, and at this time, a Manchester United attack broke through Inter Milan's goal again!

After Tiger got the ball in the middle, he passed the ball to Neville who was inserted. Neville immediately passed it straight to Beckham in front. Beckham swung his right foot to cross while running. Simici, who rushed over, failed to block Beckham's cross. The ball flew directly into the small penalty area. York, who jumped up in time, beat the opponent's central defender West, and headed the ball. Facing this header in the small penalty area, Paliuca could only save it symbolically, and then watched the ball fly into the goal!

2-0! Manchester United expands its lead!

At that moment, Old Trafford burst out with the biggest cheers since the start of the game!

Everyone knows that after gaining the advantage of two goals, Manchester United's advantage has become very big!

Although Inter Milan will regain the situation as long as they score one goal next, the lead of two goals means that Manchester United can play more easily in the second half. This goal before the end of the first half made Ferguson's arrangement of halftime easier!

York started celebrating alone this time. He jumped up from the stands, then waved his fist upwards, spreading his arms to accept the huge cheers of Manchester United fans!

Two new players worth more than 10 million pounds have shown their abilities in the new season - one York and the other Tiger!

Inter Milan players had a hint of confusion on their faces. They had average results in the league this season, but they performed well in the Champions League, but they suffered a blow in this knockout match, which almost made them sure that they would probably get nothing this season!

One minute later, the referee blew the whistle to the end of the first half, and Manchester United fans cheered loudly. Manchester United players were proud on their faces, while Inter Milan players hurried off the stadium.

"David! Beautiful job! The cross is so wonderful!"

"Dwight! The best shooter!"

"Tiger! The breakthrough is so wonderful!"

"Roy, you are the best captain!"

When walking in from the player passage, Manchester United fans in the stands on both sides cheered at them. Each player on the court received praise from the fans. The desire for European honors is no worse than Manchester United fans!

Manchester United has won four league championships in the past six years, but there is only one winner in the European Cup. Although they can always qualify in the group in the Champions League, their best results are just the semi-finals. Last season, when the situation was quite good, he was eliminated from the semi-finals by Ligue 1 Monaco with the advantage of home and away goals by Ligue 1 and missed the semi-finals. The 2-0 first half gave Manchester United fans hope to enter the semi-finals!

"We performed very well in the first half, but it was only a quarter of the time in the entire two rounds."

Ferguson was also very happy, but he remained calm: "In the second half, if we were negligent and were scored by Inter Milan, the advantage would return to their side... So in the second half, the first thing we need to strengthen is defense. Inter Milan's offense was more concentrated in the middle in the first half. They will notice this in the second half, so our pressure on the side will appear greater. Zanetti and Morero are both wing players with fast speed and strong ability to break through. Morero's crossing ability is better, and Zanetti's breakthrough ability is better. When Morero broke through on the side, Gary entangled him, so that he did not have the opportunity to cross. When Zanetti broke through on the side, Dennis cut off his inward route, and the crossing allowed him to go... We need targeted defense, do you understand?"

Gary Neville and Elvin nodded at the same time. The pressure on them was not very high in the first half, but it was obvious that they would not be too relaxed in the second half.

"Inter Milan may strengthen the attack on the wing, but whether it is Bergomi or Simic, they are all full-backs who focus on defense... So the focus of their offense will be the middle, and the wing is just a way. In the middle, we must suppress them, Tiger, and continue to break boldly in the second half to restrain their Simeone! If Inter Milan gets a set piece in the frontcourt, Simeone will probably intervene in front of the assist. At that time, you don't have to go back to defend and wait for a counterattack in the frontcourt! The third ball will completely defeat any of their hopes! Do you understand?"

"I understand!" Manchester United players answered in unison.
