Chapter 404 What about the basic trust between people?(2/2)
The game started again soon.
Manchester United used the kick-off to launch an offensive at Newcastle United in the half-time. Their first wave of offensive was somewhat conservative. The offensive led by C-Ronaldo from the right hit the front of the penalty area, and no one in the midfield was cut off. Then the ball came to Newcastle United again.
Manchester United made a quick retreat, their midfield defense was very tight, and the offensive launched by Newcastle United ended after only half.
Next, both sides will go back and forth.
Overall, Manchester United still has an advantage. They control more time, and the connection between the backcourt, midfield and forwards is relatively close, and the offense is more targeted, which is more dangerous to the penalty area.
Newcastle United's offensive is also good, but neither Patton nor Bartt are the kind of players with outstanding technical skills. The midfielder they lead is relatively rough.
The front line is also a problem.
Irving's performance is relatively active, but Irving's style of play is not strong, so we still need to wait for opportunities.
Zhen Shaolong was closely guarded.
Manchester United played 120 points against Zhen Shaolong in the middle and backcourt, and was scored a goal at the beginning. They were really depressed. After the game started again, the players consciously strengthened their defense.
"Don't let him touch the ball!"
This is the slogan shouted by Manchester United's backcourt core Leo Ferdinand.
Even if he doesn't let the ball touch, it seems to be too domineering, and it is basically impossible to do it, but Manchester United did a good job around the penalty area. Zhen Shaolong ran around the penalty area, and there will definitely be players who follow him closely.
Sometimes it's Carrick, sometimes it's Ferdinand, and sometimes it's Evra or Vidic.
In fact, when Manchester United set up defensive tactics, they did not decide to let the players "follow closely". Manchester United is the world's top giant in England and even Europe. They have absolute confidence in their own strength. Any player in the backcourt will be a world-class star and a world-class defensive player. They all have rich experience. As long as they take turns to keep a regular watch, it is enough to ensure that the opponent will not run out of the room.
It's different now.
Zhen Shaolong helped Newcastle United score a goal in more than ten seconds, and all Manchester United players were shocked. The midfielders found that they had to pay more attention. When the players came to defend, they consciously followed him, and even did not give the opponent a chance to pass and receive the ball normally.
Many Manchester United players also think Ferdinand is right, "Don't let the opponent touch the ball!"
If you don’t even give the opponent the chance to touch the ball, it will be impossible for the opponent to perform.
This is the best defense.
Manchester United's defense made Zhen Shaolong feel a little numb. He was used to being close to the close, but close to the close is different. The ability of a single player in an ordinary team is definitely incomparable to Manchester United. Carrick, Ferdinand, Evra, etc. Every player who comes here can put a lot of pressure on him. They target him together, but they really can't even get the ball.
Of course.
No defense can make a player unable to touch the ball, but Zhen Shaolong must wait for the opportunity instead of rashly going to the backcourt to get the ball.
That makes no sense.
Next was Manchester United's performance time. They continued to launch offensives and suppressed Newcastle United continuously. Scholes made a straight pass and found Wayne Rooney. Rooney rushed up and almost broke through the goal guarded by Jiwen with a powerful shot.
Afterwards, Newcastle United launched a counterattack.
Enzobia quickly dribbled the ball from the left and wanted to pass the ball when she was about to reach the penalty area line, but was knocked to the ground by the opponent Neville.
"foul!"
Enzobia angrily signaled to the referee.
Neville raised his hands to show his innocence, but the referee still awarded the ball to Newcastle United and gave a verbal warning to Neville.
Newcastle United gets set pieces.
The position of this set piece is not good. It is outside the left corner of the penalty area. It is still a bit far from the goal and the angle is a bit too small.
Enzobiya asked Zhen Shaolong, "Come and try it?"
Zhen Shaolong shook his head.
Manchester United players in the distance breathed a long sigh. As long as it was not Zhen Shaolong's free throw, they didn't have to worry too much, but when Zhen Shaolong walked past Enzobia, he whispered, "Push directly forward later."
“Push forward?”
"Yes, kick me normally, don't have to be too strong."
Zhen Shaolong explained a little and stood on the right side of Manchester United's man wall. After Ferdinand organized the man wall, he simply stood beside him and kept squeezing with his body, as if he was going to fight tensely.
Zhen Shaolong simply moved two steps to the right.
Ferdinand moved over.
He moved again.
Ferdinand followed again.
"No need to do this, right?" Zhen Shaolong said exaggeratedly, "He won't pass it to me, don't worry! I'm not good at grabbing headers!"
Ferdinand thought about it and noticed that he had deviated too much from his position and could not grab the point, but he still followed him and did not squeeze harder.
"Thanks!"
Zhen Shaolong thanked him when he arrived.
Ferdinand nodded slightly, meaning that he seemed to be 'I'll let you go this time'.
Enzobia stood at the free throw point.
Manchester United judged that Enzobia would pass the ball to his teammates. The most likely one was Patton in the horizontal direction, and Milner in the distance. Irving was defended very closely in the wall of the man. Zhen Shaolong stood outside and basically would not pose a threat. He was also surrounded by Ferdinand.
If Enzobia chooses to pass across, there is no threat, because Patton and Milner are relatively far away, so it is impossible to shoot directly.
So Manchester United doesn't care.
finally.
The referee signaled that he could make a free throw. Enzobia assisted the run on the spot, waved his left foot high, and then gently put it down and pushed the ball towards Zhen Shaolong.
“—?”
"What are you doing?"
Manchester United couldn't understand it for a while, and even Ferdinand was a little confused.
The moment Enzobiya waved his foot, Zhen Shaolong rushed forward to meet the ball, and after running two or three steps, Ferdinand reacted and followed.
It's too late!
Zhen Shaolong met the ball, without any hesitation, turned around 180 degrees and shot in reverse.
"Bang!"
Driven by huge force, the football quickly rushed over Ferdinand, and under the correction of "Free Shooting", it made a huge arc and pierced towards the far corner of the right side of the goal.
Van der Sar stood in front of the goal, blocked his sight by a wall. He found that Enzobiya didn't shoot and didn't know what happened. It was too late to see the flying ball.
His only reaction was to wave his hand to the right and then watch the football flew into the goal against the crossbar.
The ball has entered!
Everyone in the entire court was shocked by this wonderful reflexive volley.
Ferdinand stopped in place, turned to look at the ball flying into the door, and was slightly different from the other people's "shocking" reaction. He sighed long, his face full of sadness, then turned to look at Zhen Shaolong, gritted his teeth and asked, "You are so awesome!"
"But...what is the most basic trust between people?"
