What ball king, call me ball god

Chapter 321 Is it revenge, or is it worse to be beaten?

After the victory over Tottenham, the long-awaited national team match day finally arrived.For teams in Europe and South America, this day means competition and competition for honors, while for teams in Asia, including the Chinese team, this period is relatively idle.

The Chinese team is naturally no exception. The lack of a game schedule gave Lin Kedi a long-awaited rest.Although he knows that training cannot be slack during the national team match days, he still leaves most of the time to himself.These two weeks were a rare period of rest and adjustment for him.

Despite this, Lin Kedi did not neglect training.He knows that training is essential even when there are no games.He strictly follows the team's arrangements and devotes himself to training when it is time to train.At other times, he is free to arrange his own activities. Whether it is rest, relaxation or recharge and study, it is up to him to decide.

However, the days without competition fly by quickly.Two weeks have passed in a blink of an eye, and Manchester United is about to challenge Newcastle away from home in the fifth round of the Premier League.Although it is an away game, the Magpies' performance this season is not ideal.In the first four rounds of the league, they only achieved one victory and two draws, ranking lower in the standings.Facing such an opponent, the entire Manchester United team is full of confidence and believes that they will be able to win on the road.

On the day of the game, the atmosphere was extremely tense, and the audience was eagerly looking forward to this fierce showdown.However, in the third minute of the first half, something shocking happened on the field.

Luke Shaw made a sliding tackle on Newcastle forward Joelinton during a scramble.This action looked very intense. The soles of Luke Shaw's shoes were so bright that he did not scoop the ball, but directly scooped Joelinton.

The referee immediately stopped the game and walked towards Luke Shaw and showed him a direct red card.This sudden decision shocked the audience, and all eyes turned to Luke Shaw.

Luke Xiao looked at the red card shown by the referee and was a little shocked and unable to accept it for a moment.He wanted to make a few excuses, but at this time, Lin Kedi, as the captain, walked to his side.

"You go down first, don't worry, we can still win this game without you!" Lin Kedi said firmly.His eyes revealed an unshakable determination and belief.

Luke Xiao looked into Lin Kedi's eyes and knew that the captain was telling the truth.He believed in the captain, so he nodded and walked off the court silently.Next, Manchester United will have 10 people to challenge.

In the first half of the game, Manchester United inevitably entered a period of silence.Although they tried hard to find a breakthrough on the pitch, Newcastle's defense seemed impenetrable and gradually took control of the situation on the pitch.However, this situation did not last long.

Although Newcastle had a certain advantage on the field, they were never able to convert this advantage into goals.This is mainly because they wasted too many opportunities on offense.As an oft-quoted adage goes: “There is a penalty for wasted opportunity.”This sentence could not be more appropriate for Newcastle.

44 minutes into the first half, which was the last minute of the game, Manchester United launched a strong counterattack.In this game, Manchester United's right wing was originally started by Rissarizson. However, due to Grealish's injury and the need to rest for four weeks, and Perisic's recent poor form, Ten Hag gave Rissarisson the opportunity to start.However, because Luke Shaw was sent off, Manchester United had to replace an offensive player with a defensive player.Ten Hag almost didn't hesitate and immediately replaced Rissarisson and replaced him with Grimaldo.

Therefore, the current Manchester United is actually a 432 formation, with Rashford and Link forming a double forward in the frontcourt.However, just at the 44th minute, a huge hole appeared in Newcastle's backcourt.Newcastle's midfielder leaked the ball and Rashford keenly caught it.Lin Kedi immediately moved forward quickly, and he had already noticed this loophole.The moment Rashford got the ball, he sent it forward directly, and the ball was sent to Lin Kedi.Lin Kedi easily threw away Newcastle's defenders with just one lead.

Lin Kedi then fired an angry shot from the front of the penalty area without waiting for the goalkeeper to make a move.The ball rolled into the net like an arrow from the string.The score became 1-0, and Manchester United broke the deadlock in the last minute of the first half.This goal completely turned the tide of the game and boosted the morale of the entire Manchester United team.

"Lin Kedi! It was Lin Kedi who stood up in times of crisis! Even with one less player, Lin Kedi could still score to help the team take the lead!" Zhan Jun shouted excitedly!

And this goal ultimately helped Manchester United win this difficult game.

After this game, Manchester United won all 5 games and conceded 0 goals, ranking first in the Premier League.

After this fierce game that just ended, Manchester United will turn its attention to the Champions League and face its first opponent in the Champions League this season-Paris Saint-Germain.This game was also labeled a "revenge battle" by the French media.

In last season's Champions League final, Manchester United defeated Paris Saint-Germain 3-0 without any blood.This season, the two teams played against each other so quickly, and this time it was at home in Paris.There is no doubt that Paris Saint-Germain is full of expectations and confidence in this game. They are eager to avenge their disgrace in this game, even though Manchester United is currently the best team in Europe.

The Paris Saint-Germain players could no longer contain their excitement and began to talk before the game.Among them, Neymar even publicly stated: "We have an account to settle with Manchester United!" Their words were full of determination, fighting spirit, and desire for victory.

However, in the face of Paris Saint-Germain's lofty ideals, Manchester United did not respond verbally.They know very well that on the field, only strength can speak.This game will be a major test for them. They need to prove themselves with actions rather than respond to challenges with words.

Therefore, before this focus game, the Paris side playing at home was extremely high-profile, while the Manchester United side playing away seemed very low-key.

"Hello, fans and friends! The ones who will give you the commentary today are me, Zhan Jun, and Zhang Lu. Director Zhang, today's game can be said to be a focus battle. These are the two sides that played against each other in last season's Champions League final. Two teams. In that Champions League final, Paris had almost no chance at all and was defeated cleanly by Manchester United 3-0. I remember that in the second half of that game, you also mentioned that this was the least suspense. A Champions League final." Zhan Jun looked at Zhang Lu and said.

"Yes, in fact, in the first half, Paris had no chance at all, and by the second half, the defeat was already certain. Even in the 17 Real Madrid 4-1 Juventus game, in the first half, the two teams The team also fought back and forth, and Juventus completely collapsed in the second half, and Paris basically did not pose any threat to De Gea in that final. That's why I say that Manchester United won the Champions League last season. The most dangerous and difficult game in the journey is the semi-final against Bayern. If you get past Bayern and reach the final, Paris will have nothing to fear, and this is indeed the case." Zhang Lu sighed.

"Speaking of which, Paris' top-heavy problem has not yet been solved. Judging from the starting lineup of this game, there is actually no change from the Champions League final. But Manchester United's starting lineup is different from last season's Champions League final. Small changes. In this game, Ten Hag arranged a 3241 formation, which is a tactic of offensive suppression. Among them, the new aid Rice, Thomas, Ashraf and Risaarisson all appeared together. Look. Get up, Ten Hag is going to attack in the away game in this game!" Zhan Jun continued.

Zhang Lu continued what Zhan Jun said: "Actually, Thomas is the best integrated among the new players. Of course, his own strength is basically very strong. In addition, he has better adaptability and integrates faster. The other is Ash Wow, he plays from full-back, midfielder to midfielder, and he integrates very quickly. As for Rice, he integrates a little slower, and his tacit understanding with his teammates is slightly worse, but his own strength is still good. Players at this position themselves need more games to integrate. Finally, let’s talk about Rissarisson. He is indeed a bit unique. This is actually understandable. He is a Brazilian player, but his shooting skills are really poor. He seems to be a Brazilian. The starting number 9——"

"Yes, he is." Zhan Jun immediately added.

"Then his scoring ability is really a bit poor. He doesn't like to pass the ball when assisting, and his scoring ability is weak. So he is qualified as a substitute, but not qualified as the main force. Yes." Zhang Lu said.

"Indeed, if Grealish hadn't been injured, he probably wouldn't have been able to play in the main team. In addition, Perisic has also been recuperating recently, so he is on the right. In fact, we can also consider youngster Greenwood on the right. . But it is obvious that Greenwood is not favored by ten Hahe. To be honest, at the beginning, Rissarisson was bought as a substitute for Lin Kedi, but now, Lin Kedi is in such good condition. He is explosive and has very good physical fitness. Ten Hag has no reason to replace him. So Rissarisson will act more as a substitute for the two wings." Zhan Jun explained.

"It is true that Risaarison does not have the strength to be the main attacker in a wealthy team, but there is nothing we can do about it. Grealish is injured. Speaking of which, Grealish is really a good player. It is no wonder that this summer, Manchester United The two teams in the city actually wanted to grab him, but in the end it was won by Manchester United."

"Zhang pointed out that many of our Chinese fans feel that Grealish plays very casually and does not seem to have much impact. Do you think this is correct?"

"It's definitely not right. Grealish is a - a relatively advanced player, he is very fast, he can use speed to get past people, he can also use rhythm changes to get past people, and more importantly, he is not only He can move on the wing, and can also form good cooperation with teammates in the center in the rib area, so if you want to say that he is a winger, I don’t agree. He should be called a winger. He can be a winger. A core player. That's why he is said to be advanced, but he also has shortcomings, that is, his kicking movements are a bit slow and not crisp, so he looks more casual. However, this can also be said to be a matter of the player's personal style. I think when it’s functioning properly, these things aren’t big problems.”

The Parc des Princes Stadium in Paris is the home stadium of Paris Saint-Germain and a sacred place for countless Paris fans.Today on this field, Paris Saint-Germain faced its opponents with an offensive formation of 433.

The front trident is led by Neymar, with the Brazilian superstar roaming on the left, while Di Maria provides support from the right.Mbappe is located in the middle. Although he does not often play in this position, his speed and explosiveness provide him with powerful weapons in this position.However, Mbappe is not willing to play the center role. He prefers to move on the left, while Neymar often moves to the attacking midfielder position, resulting in Gueye or Herrera usually stepping forward in the center.

Even if Mbappe is fixed at the center position, his back-up ability and stance ability cannot compete with the strong center defender.His technical characteristics and style make him struggle in this position.What's more, Manchester United's central defender combination is the best in the world, and it is difficult for Mbappe to gain any advantage against them.

Before the game, many experts and media predicted this, but Paris head coach Tuchel still made such an arrangement.His decision-making and tactical arrangements seemed too idealistic and did not fully take into account the actual abilities of the players and the strength of the opponents.

Back at the game site, the game was one-sided.From the first minute of the game, Manchester United firmly controlled the situation of the game.Their 1 high pressure made Paris Saint-Germain's 3241 formation look loose and unable to exert its real power.This kind of oppression not only poses a threat on the offensive end, but also forms a solid barrier on the defensive end, making it difficult for Paris' offense to break through.

In the 7th minute, Lin Kedi showed his excellent personal ability and calm judgment and took the lead to score.This is a very simple long-range shot from outside the penalty area. It seems easy, but it actually contains powerful power and precise shooting skills.Lin Kedi's shot was so powerful and heavy that the Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper was helpless and could only watch the ball fly into the net.

Lin Kedi's long shot not only demonstrated his personal ability, but also dealt a heavy blow to Paris Saint-Germain's defense.The players of Paris Saint-Germain are demoralized and they need to work harder in the next game to get back a victory.

Subsequently, Paris Saint-Germain launched a strong counterattack at home. They tried their best to score a goal, but this counterattack failed. Instead, Manchester United seized the opportunity and launched a wonderful counterattack.

In the 9th minute, Lin Kedi received the ball in the middle. He quickly strode forward, showing amazing speed and power.Paris' defensive strength was overwhelmed by the impact of the Manchester United striker, and they were unable to effectively block Lin Ke's attack.Lin Kedi was roaming freely in the Paris half, as if he was in no one's land.His flexible movement and excellent skills made Paris' defenders completely unable to restrict his performance.

When Link dribbled the ball within 30 meters of the goal, he observed that the Paris goalkeeper was positioned too far forward.Lin Kedi secretly rejoiced and seized this opportunity to launch a lob without hesitation.

The ball drew a beautiful arc in the air and flew towards the Paris Saint-Germain goal.Everyone held their breath and stared closely at this moment that was about to determine the outcome of the game.

In the end, the ball hit the target accurately, and the Paris goalkeeper could only watch as the ball flew into the net.Manchester United took the lead again and the score was rewritten to 2-0.

This score did not last long, and the situation of the game changed rapidly.

In the 15th minute, Manchester United launched another counterattack. This counterattack was like a thunderous blow, directly penetrating Paris Saint-Germain's midfield defense.The team's tactical cooperation and the tacit understanding between the players were vividly displayed at this moment, which is amazing.

This time, Lin Kedi played the role of a passer. He made a long pass in the middle and accurately found Richarlison on the right.This pass was like a stroke of genius, passing through Paris' defense and accurately finding Manchester United's attacker.

After Risaarison got the ball, he showed his outstanding personal ability and high desire to win.It was as if he was riding through a barrier on his own, challenging Paris' defense on his own.Although his shooting skills are not his strong point, at this moment, he showed amazing skills.

Facing the Paris goalkeeper, Rissarisson scored the ball with a very wonderful shot.

The score was rewritten again, with Manchester United leading 3-0.

In less than 10 minutes, Paris Saint-Germain suffered a three-goal defeat.What's even more terrible is that this was only less than 20 minutes in the first half.An air of imminent carnage hung over the entire stadium.

Mbappe was in a very bad mood. He stood in the middle circle with his hands on his hips, as if he was trapped in an inescapable nightmare.He couldn't understand why the team lost three goals so quickly. This was at their home court!At this time, he suddenly heard a shout from the sidelines.

He looked up and found that coach Tuchel was shouting something.Taking a closer look, Tuchel is making a gesture for everyone to return to defense. This is undoubtedly a clear tactical instruction.After Mbappe saw this gesture, he instantly felt a wave of frustration and despair welling up in his heart.

Angry thoughts flashed through his mind, but reality soon dawned on him.The reality is that they are already 0-3 behind. The reality is that the game has only started less than 20 minutes ago. The reality is that they must all return to defense to have any hope of recovery!This reality made Mbappé feel heavy and lost, as if a massacre was about to happen to them.

However, we also have to admit that when a strong team starts to seriously defend comprehensively, they can indeed perform well on this simple task.In the first half of the game, they successfully blocked the opponent's attack and did not let the ball enter their own goal again.

However, if such a defensive strategy is used throughout the entire game, it may only allow the game score to be fixed at this number and not be able to expand further.But Paris Saint-Germain was not satisfied with this. They decided to adopt a more aggressive offensive strategy after the second half of the game began.

However, when Paris started to attack, Manchester United immediately seized the opportunity to counterattack. Every counterattack accurately found the flaw and hit the target with one hit.In the 66th minute, Lin Kedi broke through with the ball on the right and cleverly knocked De Jong in the middle.After de Jong caught the ball, he completed a putt without hesitation, expanding the score to 4-0.

Paris conceded another goal, and Tuchel yelled angrily from the sidelines, but few players on the court could understand him because he was using his native dialect.

But it can be seen from the expression that this is definitely a curse.

However, many stars in Paris will not pay attention to this matter. After all, in Paris, the stars are the biggest, and the head coach is nothing.

Among them, the Paris local gang is the largest.

The boss among them is naturally Mbappe.

Before Lin Kedi moved to Manchester United, the names sealed by the media at that time were the new peerless duo - Lin Kedi and Mbappe.

At that time, Lin Kedi broke various records in Ajax and led the team to win the Triple Crown. Mbappe won the World Cup, although he was not the best player in the national team in that cup.

But both are outstanding young players.

But when Lin Kedi was killing everyone in Manchester United's first season, the difference in public opinion between the two became apparent.

Many football media and experts believe that Lin Kedi is higher than Mbappe.

And when Lin broke various records in his first season at Manchester United and led the team to win an unprecedented four crowns, especially after defeating Kylian Mbappe in the Champions League final, no one mentioned the new and unique double. Proud.

People all believe that Lin Kedi is destined to become a historical superstar, a super giant on the same level as Melo.

So before this Champions League group match, Mbappe was actually very ambitious. He was ready to go all out and defeat Lin Kedi head-on.

But I didn't expect, I didn't expect that I would lose so miserably again.

When the full-time whistle blew, Mbappe went straight to the tunnel.

Lin Kedi was originally planning to exchange jerseys with Mbappe, but Mbappe left directly.

After thinking about it, Lin Kedi went to find Neymar and exchanged jerseys.

Also chatted with Neymar.

Just small talk, of course.Neymar didn't see any of the tense scenes in the media before the game, he was just normal.

Later, Lin Kedi was interviewed on the sidelines.

"I never think this is revenge. It's just a simple Champions League group match. We got three precious points. This will be the starting point for us to defend the Champions League. Yes, our goal this season Just defending the title!" (End of Chapter)
