At noon on March 14th, Manchester Old Trafford Stadium. Novel    .

When the game reached the 23rd minute, Manchester United striker Tevez retreated to get the ball and suddenly passed the ball behind Liverpool's defense line and sent the ball into Liverpool's penalty area. South Korean star Park Ji-sung quickly inserted it.

Liverpool goalkeeper Renner abandoned the goal and made a mistake in his judgment. He was half a beat slower. After being caught up by Park Ji-sung, he couldn't stop and knocked down the Manchester United player. The referee's whistle also sounded immediately.

"Oh, Reiner!"

"Punishment! Referee Willie awarded the penalty without hesitation."

"This is an uncontroversial penalty. Renner did trip over Park Ji-sung when he lost the ball."

"The Spanish goalkeeper defended himself that he could not stop the rush, but no matter what, if he tripped, he would trip."

"Manchester United started the game with great enthusiasm. Although they failed to create a threat several times, this time it forced Liverpool to make a mistake. This has to be said to be a very favorable situation."

The entire Old Trafford Stadium was in full swing.

All the Red Devils fans were rejoicing and were obviously extremely satisfied with the start of the game.

In the first twenty minutes, Manchester United took the initiative to attack and seized a certain advantage. Now he has got a penalty kick. This will undoubtedly be an excellent opportunity for Manchester United to break the deadlock on the court and control its own destiny.

After discussing the game, the Manchester United players finally stood in front of the penalty spot.

…………

…………

Cristiano Ronaldo stood outside the 12-yard point and looked straight at the Liverpool goal ahead.

He could see that Spanish goalkeeper Reina was a little nervous.

So far this season, the Portuguese has scored twelve goals in the Premier League. This report card is definitely a serious failure for him. Everyone believes that after experiencing the peak of last season, he quickly fell down and may even be like other superstars, and will never recover from it.

On the court, Manchester United has also been in a row, and the league is significantly behind Liverpool. In the previous two matches of the Double Red Club, Manchester United returned with a grudge and lost a League Cup championship, which is a blow to the Portuguese.

However, Yang Yang took this opportunity to further consolidate his title as the number one player in the world.

There are still opportunities in the league, but the premise is that Manchester United must win this duel and defeat Liverpool, and for the next league reversal, the Champions League and the FA Cup will be a good start and play momentum.

Therefore, Manchester United played very proactively from the beginning of this game and performed quite well.

Penalty shots are more like a reward for Manchester United's first twenty minutes.

Cristiano Ronaldo has performed poorly this season, and has lagged far behind Yang Yang in all statistics. Even in league goals, Yang Yang has scored 33 goals so far, which has far surpassed the Portuguese.

But it doesn't matter. As long as you win the game, as long as Ronaldo leads Manchester United to defeat his opponent, it doesn't matter.

Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao Luo let out a heavy breath, reached out to wipe the sweat from his nose, and quickly helped him run forward.

Only a bang was heard at the scene, and the Portuguese quickly shot the ball on the twelve yards, oriented towards the half-high ball on the left side of the goal, with excellent strength and angle.

Liverpool goalkeeper Renner judged the right direction, but he chose to snatch the ball on the ground, but failed to stop the ball from entering the net.

"goallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!"

"The penalty kick is in! Cristiano Ronaldo scored the first record for Manchester United!"

"One to zero! Manchester United's start is pretty good!"

After scoring a penalty, Cristiano Ronaldo did not even rush out of the stadium to celebrate, but chose to kneel in Liverpool's penalty area, clenched his fists and cheered, celebrating his thirteenth Premier League goal this season.

Manchester United players also surrounded him and celebrated the goal with him.

"Today is Ronaldo's 150th time in the Premier League, and he used a penalty to open the door to victory for his game, and this is also Manchester United's 700th home goal in the Premier League."

"It can be said that this goal is still very memorable."

"Liverpool should regroup now, stabilize its position as soon as possible, and perform better."

"This is Liverpool captain Gerald, and the team's number one star Yang Yang, both of them are encouraging their teammates."

"Benitez's arrangement of troops in this game is still questionable. He unexpectedly arranged for Yang Yang to play singles, which made Yang Yang fall into double-team between Ferdinand and Vidic since the opening."

"As an offensive player with outstanding speed and skills and good at dribbling and scoring ability, it is quite unfavorable to be forced to fight with the tall and strong central defender."

"Perhaps, Benitez and Yang Yang miss Crouch now."

…………

…………

In this game, Liverpool did play a rather boring start.

But the reason is not because Yang Yang replaced Crouch to play in the middle, but because Benitez adjusted his tactical style before the game, and the players need some time to adapt and get along.

A very important point is that there have been some adjustments to Manchester United's pressing defense.

Benitez's strategy is very simple, which is to focus on pressing Osheim and Ferdinand, and appropriately relaxing Vidic and Evra's side. Especially for Vidic, Yang Yang basically did not go to press.

Kuyt's position also retreated a lot, which was equivalent to encouraging Evra to step forward in the attack when changing directions.

Once the ball reaches Vidic's feet, Liverpool basically chooses to retreat and does not press on him.

This is Benitez's strategy. He wants to force Manchester United to transfer the ball to Vidic's feet through his own pressing and oppression, and to lure Manchester United's left-center-back to dribble the ball forward through appropriate retracement and not pressing against Vidic.

This is not difficult to understand, because Vidic has no suitable ball-out route and there is enough room for dribbling in front, so he will definitely dribble forward. Once Vidic dribbles forward, Evra, who is keen on forward assists, will definitely participate in the attack with the sidelines, and Manchester United's left defense will expose the gap behind him.

Benitez's tactical philosophy is very clear and his ideas are very good, but the players need some running-in time when executing.

Football Emperor Beckenbauer once said that the strongest ones are often the weakest ones.

Vidic is the strongest point of Manchester United's defense line, but as long as he creates a situation that is unfavorable to him, he will become the weakest point of Manchester United's defense line. Benitez's purpose is to create such a situation.

...

For more than twenty minutes, Liverpool has been trying to find opportunities.

Especially after conceding a goal, Manchester United increased its offense. Ferguson's team obviously wanted to make a concerted effort and defeat Liverpool in one go at home.

Yang Yang and Gerrard, as well as other Liverpool players, were not anxious or nervous after conceding a goal first.

Reversal King is a title given to Liverpool by media and fans all over the world, because the Reds have beaten European football this season's reversals, which also gives Liverpool a lot of experience in playing behind.

Manchester United put in a big push, Liverpool pulled back appropriately, waiting patiently for the opportunity.

Yang Yang was as arranged by Benitez. When Ferdinand got the ball, he went up to press the ball. When Vidic got the ball, he chose to retreat and lure the Serbian central defender forward.

Outsiders don't know Liverpool's plans at all, and may not even see the clues of Ferguson himself.

Everyone, including the fans and commentators on the scene, only saw Manchester United gradually pushing forward and gradually gaining the advantage, while Liverpool was defeated step by step, first shot by Rooney, and then by Tevez.

But when the game was about to enter 30 minutes, Manchester United's midfielder had completely pushed to the near-center line. With Liverpool being pushed in the half, Ferdinand made a forward pass and Anderson made a mistake when stopping the ball.

Gerald quickly stepped forward and successfully made a steal, stabbing the ball to Yang Yang.

Yang Yang stopped the ball and turned around, started quickly, and made a quick counterattack.

Gareth Bale quickly inserted on the left, attracting Ferdinand's attention, while Yang Yang understood the ball and walked directly to the middle, facing Vidic, and the two of them were getting faster and faster.

Kuyt on the right also chased all the way without the ball, and penetrated the penalty area from the right side.

With Ferdinand distracted by Gareth Bale on the left, when Yang Yang dribbled the ball into Manchester United's 30-meter area, Vidic finally couldn't help but choose to block it.

Because he knew very well that he would enter Yang Yang's range further.

Evra chose to go inward. He wanted to escort Vidic because he was worried that Yang Yang's one-on-one ability was obvious to all. God knows whether he would use his speed to force his breakthrough Vidic.

And Yang Yang is just waiting for Evra!

If the French left-back still chooses to follow Kuyt closely, Yang Yang will make a one-on-one breakthrough with speed, but if Evra chooses to get close to Vidic and double-team Yang Yang, Yang Yang will choose to pass the ball.

So, before Vidic and Evra had time to complete the double-team, Yang Yang passed the ball from the corner of the two into the penalty area.

Undefended Kuyt stepped forward and quickly chased after him.

The wonderful pass sent by Yang Yang was very comfortable, as if it was passed to his step, allowing him to rush up without reducing speed, and then step on his left foot and hit his right foot directly!

Goalkeeper Van der Sar blocked most of the shooting angles, but Kuyt is a player who can compete with Yang Yang for the Eredivisie shooter king. His shooting skills are still quite solid. He directly shot the far corner and resolved Van der Sar's position.

The ball passed Van der Sar's hand and hit the left side of the goal!

"goallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!"

"Liverpool tied the score!"

"In less than ten minutes, Liverpool tied the score, one-to-one, and both sides returned to the same starting line!"

"Yang Yang's assist, Kuyt's goal, Liverpool's counterattack is really sharp!"

"The goal came very suddenly, this is Liverpool!"

"This is Yang Yang!"
Chapter completed!
