Chapter 536 As long as it is fast enough!
Seeing that Yang Xiaozhuang scored the second goal of the game by Manchester United, Guardiola made another substitution adjustment. He replaced Rashford with Coman and replaced Jessus with Brandt.
Guardiola was quite disappointed with his two wingers' performance in this game... He didn't perform at all in the game!
Not to mention the offense, Manchester City was indeed suppressed by Manchester United, who played at home in today's game. They can get very few offensive opportunities. Even due to the team's tactical arrangements, the game has not been completed yet, even one shot has not been completed.
Haaland, who was at the forefront, was still very active in the game, but no matter how active the Norwegian center was, he was just alone. When facing Mansa and Tuanzebe's two men's defense, he tried his best to compete with his opponents and had headed the ball many times, but his teammates did not perform well on the court. No matter how hard Haaland tried, he could not threaten the Manchester United goal.
In this game, Rashford and Jessus seemed to be out of shape at all. They were repeatedly defended by Wan Bisaka and Joe Reilly when the team was attacking. At the same time, they did not actively retreat to help the team's defense. They occasionally retreated to help the midfielders organize the offense. This is the role they played in this game.
Guardiola saw this situation and was anxious, but he still had hope before, wanting to see if Rashford and Jessus' personal abilities can shine in this game, but the result... now he can only rank with more team-oriented Coman and Brandt.
I have to say that Guardiola's substitution this time...it really means a bit like a masterpiece!
Manchester United's defensive players have been entangled with Jessus and Rashford for most of the game. They are even familiar with these two guys who rely on their personal abilities to get the ball. They are also familiar with them usually pulling in the wings and waiting for the ball to catch them.
As a result, Koman and Brandt are not like this!
At 76 minutes of the game, Manchester City got a chance to serve a ball from the right in the frontcourt. When the ball was thrown back into the field, Tierney, Alaba, Selsey Roberto, De Bruyne and others passed continuously and controlled the ball.
Just after Manchester United's defensive formation was pulled to this side, "Ding Ding" suddenly pulled the ball into Manchester United's left penalty area when receiving the ball!
Koeman, who was originally outside the penalty area on the left side of Manchester United, always walked slowly. When De Bruyne suddenly picked the ball out, the French winger suddenly accelerated and rushed into the penalty area on the left side of Manchester United. With his outstanding explosive power as a black player, he turned his back away from the same explosive power with the advantage of a beat faster!
Bang!
When he ran to the ball landing point, Koeman did not stop at all and just swung his foot on the ball!
Stop the ball!?
There is no chance!
Although Koeman also wanted to handle the ball steadily, such an opportunity was really rare, but Wan Bisaka, who was by his side, was actually only one meter behind. If he stopped the ball and then dealt with it, the ball would be disturbed by Wan Bisaka.
Fortunately, Koeman is a player with excellent skills, very fast pace frequency and excellent balance. He volleyed in the air and threw the ball straight into Manchester United's goal with the right part!
Although De Gea also made a save move, Koman's shot was really tricky. The ball flew into the goal against the inside of the left post. The De Gea man who was leaping to save was in the air, and his fingertips were only one palm away from the ball. Unfortunately... he still couldn't defend it after all!
"GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
On the stadium, 3,780 Manchester City fans and tens of thousands of "Blue Moon" supporters gathered outside the Old Trafford stadium, all cheered wildly at this moment...
“GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Guardiola off the court also shouted excitedly and waved her fist hard... This goal is so important!
Lose the game?
That's not scary!
Guardiola was prepared for such a result at Old Trafford. The key is to see how he lost!
Like now... If the score of 2:1 can be maintained until the final whistle sounds, Guardiola will be very satisfied with this result!
If you lose one away goal and score another away goal, this is a very big advantage for "Blue Moon"!
But... the situation in this game should have some changes!?
Guardiola kept calling out Manchester City players to retreat to prepare for defense off the court, and constantly encouraged Manchester City players, but he was actually a little worried... At this time, with such a score, the next game will definitely be different from before!
Manchester United, who plays at home, will likely use the last ten minutes of the game to attack fiercely. If Manchester City can defend, there will be no less chances of counterattacking in the future. Then the score of this game... will likely change.
All those who are paying attention to this game have become more nervous at this time. Whether they are supporting Manchester United, supporting Manchester City, or just maintaining neutrality, they now realize that this game will become more nervous and exciting in the future!
But at this time, as the head coach of Manchester United, Solskjaer was a little hesitant... Do you still have to take risks to attack?
Or... accept a 2:1 score!?
While Solskjaer was still hesitating, Manchester United players on the court gave him an answer...attack!
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The "Red Devils" soldiers who fought at home really cannot accept being stolen by their opponents!
Until now, Manchester City... just shot like this!
Just one kick, the ball went in!
Manchester United, who is the active attacking side, has now completed more than 20 shots, but there are only two goals!
But...this is football!
Many times, as the party that takes the initiative to attack on the field, even if it takes the absolute initiative in the game, it is not necessarily the party that can make a profit, and it may even be... it cannot even win!
Fortunately, the "Red Devils" who played at home did not give the "Blue Moon" a chance to counterattack again. When the game started again, Manchester United used the more crazy attack to suppress the opponent. They didn't even ask the head coach off the court!
Offensive... This is the common will of everyone in Manchester United's team!
Yang Xiaozhuang, whose physical fitness can reach the limit of human beings, began to take advantage of his physical strength after the game started again, and started to put more pressure on Manchester City's defense line with faster speed, sharper and more direct running.
When Manchester United's "King" goes all out, the impact and threat can be generated are really too great. Even if Manchester City's defense line is jointly defended by Stones, Marginhos, and Alaba, who retreats to defend, faces the rapid impact of Yang Xiaozhuang alone, he is still fumbling.
Seeing this scene, Guardiola off the field couldn't help but clenched his fists, but was still nervous and trembling... It was too fast!
Manchester United's "King" is really too perverted. Even though the game is at its final stage, it still has the physical strength to run so crazy and fast. With such speed... it directly makes it difficult for Manchester City's defense line to defend him with two people at the same time. Most of the time it is still in a one-on-one situation, and others can't help at all!
Manchester City's arrow character "Demon" Haaland was also a little confused. He always knew that his competitors were very fast, but... this is too exaggerated!
Only now has Haaland understood the meaning of a sentence... As long as you are fast enough, there will only be one opponent in front of you!
Yang Xiaozhuang's unreasonable impact on Manchester City's defense caused everyone in Manchester City to focus on him when defending. Everyone around him would be wary of him receiving the ball, and even when he received the ball, he would rush up to encircle him immediately.
But the problem is... Manchester United's "King" has not been a reckless person from beginning to end!
At 86 minutes of the game, I saw that there was almost no time left in the game, but when Martial made a cross, Yang Xiaozhuang hit the ball in the small penalty area of Manchester City, but did not shoot directly by himself. Instead, he gently walked around the ball with his left foot and knocked the ball behind him with his heel...
The attention of Manchester City players has long been attracted by Yang Xiaozhuang. Unexpectedly, with such a good opportunity, he chose to pass the ball instead of shooting by himself!?
Adam Miles, who followed up in time, shot with a blast against the ball!
Bang!
After a muffled sound that resounded at Old Trafford Stadium... the ball flew into Manchester City's goal!
"GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"The ball is in! The ball is in! Adam Myers! The child of the Miles family received a wonderful pass from Young and scored the third goal for us with an angry shot! Now we are leading 3:1!"
"Adam! Beautiful job!"
