Chapter 313 Everyone Wants the Triple Crown

The time quickly reached 19:[-], and players from both sides had already entered the field.At this time, Manchester United's starting lineup is definitely impossible to keep secret.

In fact, Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger, who is the opponent, had already got Manchester United's starting lineup more than ten minutes ago.At that moment, his mood was broken.Because he believed in Ferguson's nonsense, he really thought that Yin Jun could not play, so he also put Arsenal's number one star Henry on the bench.

This season, the competition between Manchester United and Arsenal is all-round, not only in the Premier League, but also in the semi-finals of the FA Cup.In the Champions League, the two sides may also meet.Because from the current point of view, both teams are very likely to enter the Champions League semi-finals.

Therefore, in order to better compete with Manchester United, Wenger chose to rotate Henry when Arsenal had a greater advantage.

However, it turned out that Ferguson's statement that Yin Jun could not play was a complete lie.Yin Jun not only played, but also started the game, and he didn't seem to have any problems.

"Both sides have already played. Judging from the starting lineup we got, Ferguson didn't let Yin Jun sit on the bench, but started the game! It seems that everyone was cheated by Ferguson again!" Speaking of this, Huang Qiangqiang smiled up.

He Wei also said: "I also found a problem, Wenger seems to put Henry on the bench. The professor is really an honest man, Ferguson said that Yin Jun may not be able to play, he really believed it!"

Both laughed.

………………

At Villa Park, Ferguson once again took the initiative to find Wenger to shake hands.

The professor's face was dark, and he really wanted to slap the old man with a mean smile on his face: how could a respectable old man be so insidious? !
But this was a public place, and he had to pay attention to his image, so he suppressed the anger in his heart and shook hands with Ferguson symbolically.

But in his heart, Wenger had greeted Ferguson with the most vicious words, and swore again and again that if he believed Ferguson's nonsense, he would be a puppy.

Manchester United's starting lineup for this game is a 4231 formation, the goalkeeper is Carroll, Gary Neville, Wes Brown, Sylvester and O'Shea form the defense, Fletcher and captain Roy Keane form Double defensive midfielders, Ronaldo, Yin Jun and Giggs lined up in the forward line, and Solskjaer replaced Ruud van Nistelrooy with a single arrow.

Arsenal is still in a 442 formation, goalkeeper Lehmann, Lauren, Campbell, Kolo Toure, Clichy form the defense line, Ljungberg, Edu, Vieira and Pires sit in the midfield, and the double striker is Borg Kemp is paired with youngster Jeremy Ariadiere.

Compared with the focus of the Premier League match a week ago, both sides have made certain personnel adjustments.However, Manchester United took the initiative to increase the injury time, and Arsenal's side was because Wenger fell into Ferguson's trick.

Arsenal played very proactive and tough from the very beginning of the game. Ronaldo was brought down by Edu in the opening game, but Manchester United's free kick did not pose a threat, but Arsenal almost took the lead afterwards.

In the 3rd minute, Bergkamp got rid of Manchester United's defense and shot with his left foot on the left side of the penalty area, which was saved by Carroll.

Then Pires took a corner kick, Edu's header hit the crossbar, and Toure's follow-up shot was also blocked by the crossbar, and goalkeeper Carroll immediately made a clearance.

At the beginning, they created a series of extremely threatening offenses, which made Arsenal fans very happy. They seemed to see the hope of winning.But Wenger felt depressed. If Henry was on the field, Arsenal might have scored!

………………

"These guys are really crazy!"

When walking towards the middle circle, Ronaldo looked up at the Arsenal fans in the stands and said.

Looking around, the stands of Arsenal fans were all red, and with the ups and downs of the fans, it looked like a sea of ​​red.

"Piebergkamp is such a genius, his stop is great!" Yin Jun expressed his respect for Arsenal midfielder Pires.

Just now, Manchester United's defense was completely played by Bergkamp. His stop was completely beyond Wes Brown's expectations, which led to Arsenal's consecutive attacks.If it weren't for Manchester United's good luck, they would have conceded the ball.

Before the game, Ferguson had specifically told Manchester United's defense to pay attention to Bergkamp, ​​especially the double midfielders, and must pay attention to the protection of the direction. Pu seized the opportunity and almost broke the goal.This somewhat embarrassed Keane as the captain, not knowing how to encourage his teammates.

Yin Jun also saw the clues. When walking back, he applauded vigorously and said loudly: "It's okay, we haven't conceded the ball, and the game has just started. Let's take our time, focus on defense first, and stabilize our position. Have the opportunity."

Although Yin Jun is not the captain, but as he won the European Golden Boy Award and the European Golden Globe Award consecutively and became the number one star of Manchester United, his weight in the dressing room is getting heavier and heavier. Everyone can hear what he said go in.

Keane nodded towards Yin Jun, expressing his thanks.

………………

Seeing Yin Jun encouraging his teammates, Manchester United assistant coach Mike Phelan said: "He is becoming more and more general."

Ferguson nodded, obviously agreeing with the assistant's statement that Yin Jun has indeed become a vital member of Manchester United's dressing room.

After seeing the players all back to their positions, the Manchester United coach immediately walked to the sidelines, called Keane and Fletcher, and signaled them to pay attention to restricting Arsenal's midfield, don't give them too many opportunities, and cut off Arsenal. The connection between the midfielder and the striker.

Once Arsenal's offense is suppressed, Manchester United will be able to exert their strength.

Sometimes football is that simple.As long as targeted tactics work, the situation will change.

After Manchester United took the goal kick, Arsenal's morale was still very high, but they always slowed down their offensive.On the one hand, Manchester United's two defensive midfielders began to strengthen their defense against Arsenal's midfielder.On the other hand, they are very afraid of Manchester United's counterattack.

Yin Jun's speed and personal ability have been well-known as early as last season. This season, he has provoked the backbone of Manchester United and become the backbone of the team.

Wenger is obviously also very clear that if Mao rushes forward, leaving a gap behind him and giving Yin Jun too much room to counterattack, it will definitely be fatal.So after grabbing a goal in the opening game, the professor wisely arranged for the team to slow down the offensive and play steadily.

At the same time, Wenger also specially arranged for Yin Jun's defense.It's as if Manchester United will arrange for Arsenal. Yin Jun is the soul core of Manchester United. Almost every time Yin Jun takes the ball, the nearest Arsenal players will grab it immediately, which affects Yin Jun's performance. .

But Yin Jun also quickly expanded his running range, actively using interspersed running to pull the opponent's defensive players and create opportunities for his teammates.
