Chapter 101 Meaningless?
When Benitez stood on the sidelines anxiously, Ferguson sat in the coach's seat, chewing gum leisurely. He now had to focus on the offense, and his eyes were more focused on Cristiano Ronaldo.
After carefully observing the thirty minutes of the game, he was convinced that Glory had been bound by his tactics and there was almost no threat.
Despite this, he still cannot relax his defense against Rongguang. As long as Rongguang has any idea of coming to the middle, he must be severely cracked down, forcing him to move on the sidelines and never step beyond the line.
He turned his attention to Cristiano Ronaldo, who is struggling to score a second goal.
He is very active in the frontcourt and puts great pressure on Manchester City's defense.
Manchester City's goal is in danger under the repeated attacks of him, Tevez and Klose, and it seems that the goal may be lost at any time.
The cheers in the stands of Old Trafford Stadium were endless and almost never stopped. Manchester United fans were desperately cheering for their team, hoping that they could score another goal.
Under such pressure from Manchester United, it is difficult for Manchester City's offense to threaten Manchester United's goal.
With Manchester United completely taking the upper hand, it is difficult for Manchester City to even pass through the midfield as before.
So when Manchester City gets the ball, they can only go through the midfield in some simple and rough ways.
Play a defensive counterattack?
Don't even think about it.
Manchester United defenders returned to defense very quickly and pressed fiercely in the midfield and frontcourt, so Manchester City players could not organize a counterattack as soon as possible after getting the ball.
It was finally able to play to the frontcourt, and it was also facing the layers of defense that Manchester United had already laid.
Glory was pressed on the side again.
This attack is a typical example.
When Manchester City wanted to organize the attack, they were frantically pressed by Manchester United players in their backcourt and midcourt. When they finally passed the midcourt and reached the frontcourt, Manchester United players had already set up defense lines near their penalty area.
Manchester City had to play a positional battle with Manchester United, but this is really not what Manchester City is good at. Not to mention that Glory is more than forced to the wing...
When the football fell to Sun Hai's feet, he really didn't know how to pass it, because this was his third time in this attack. The football was circling around in Manchester United's penalty area, but it could not create a threat. What's the point of such a transmission?
Sun Hai wanted to pass directly into the penalty area, but Berbatov was not good at heading the ball and grabbing points.
Not to mention Robinho, he focused on the wing, let him go to the penalty area and fight for his health with Rio Ferdinand and Vidic, and he will definitely lose.
Sun Hai held the ball, but Manchester United players did not come up to force him. Anyway, he could not create any threats on the wing, mainly to defend the middle. Never mind, just because Manchester City players picked up on the wing, they would not be able to defend the wing. In that case, the middle will be empty and will give Glory an opportunity to take advantage of.
So Sun Hai can control the ball under his feet and observe carefully.
He found that Manchester United's two wings were really empty compared to the middle.
There is only one Evra on the right side of Rongguang, but it is still in the penalty area and does not follow Rongguang.
Sun Hai thought about it and decided to pass the football over. But he did not intend to pass the football over by passing the short pass horizontally, but instead made a diagonal long pass directly.
They kept making gestures of "This road is blocked" and shouting to Rongguang: "You can't chase what you can't chase what you can't chase what you can't chase what you can't chase what you can't chase what you can't chase what you can't catch."
Some people raised their middle fingers to the glory.
Everyone can understand this internationally common gesture.
But Rongguang never looked at them at all. The Manchester United fans tried their best to make the trouble in Rongguang's eyes.
When he was about to reach the bottom line, Rongguang slowed down because he didn't slow down and ran to the front of the football... It was not the first time Rongguang did something like this.
After slowing down, he turned his head and looked at the penalty area.
Manchester United goalkeeper Van der Sar noticed this detail. When Rong Guang was chasing football, he thought Rong Guang would choose to pass. Because in this case, after catching up with football, he kicked the football directly in front of the goal was the only choice. As for whether the pass was accurate, it was not what he should consider. Anyway, as long as the football could be sent back to the goal, Rong Guang would have completed the task.
Now Rong Guang turned his head and looked at the penalty area, which further confirmed Van der Sar's guess about Rong Guang's choice.
Then what you have to guard against is the transmission of glory...
If the football can be picked out from the air when it flew to the goal and ended Manchester City's attack, it would be the best result.
Thinking of this, Van der Sar moved two more steps outside the door, allowing himself to better control the area in front of the door and prepare for intercepting the cross.
He also glanced in front of the door and saw Berbatov.
The Manchester City center is also actively rushing forward. It is indeed a routine of crossing the wing and grabbing the points in the middle.
※※※
Berbatov also saw Rong Guang's move, and Rong Guang was about to pass.
Then you have to be prepared to grab the point
So he accelerated toward the goal, intending to head the ball
Although his header is not what he is best at, he doesn't even fail to score a goal with his head...
※※※
Everyone thought that the glory was about to spread, but they all guessed it wrong.
When Rongguang decided to turn his head, he really wanted to pass it.
Because this is really just the only option.
But when he turned his head and saw the situation in front of Manchester United, he found that Van der Sar's position was very out of the way, which was to intercept his cross. But in this way, there was a lot of room between him and the goal...
When I saw this scene, Rongguang suddenly thought-What would happen if I kicked the football directly towards the goal?
Although the angle is very small, if the football has an arc, can it fly directly into the goal soon?
Thinking of this, Rongguang changed his mind.
No crossing, shot directly
He stepped on the grass with his left foot, kicked hard, and jumped up, twisting his waist and kicking his right leg towards the football.
So far, to outsiders, this is a direct crossing of the ball.
But when the glorious feet touch the football, the situation is different.
Rong Guang's right foot straightened, and his outer instep thrust hard on the middle and lower left side of the football.
Go
As for whether football can really fly into the goal next time, it is not something that Glory can control. Such a goal requires a lot of luck to score a goal, but he seems not very lucky today?
But Glory has done everything he can.
After the kick, he flew out of the bottom line until he hit the billboard and stopped.
After the billboard, the Manchester United fans shouted at him when he bumped into him: "Don't waste your time, that's meaningless."
"Futility, futility"
Rongguang didn't even look at them, his head was still twisting, his eyes following the football he kicked out.
He saw that the football started flying towards the small penalty area line, which was the area where Berbatov was.
Chapter completed!
