Football: Starting from the Ronaldo Template

Chapter 114 A dramatic scene!

"Oh, Lukaku's consciousness is so poor."

"Anticipation, balance and weight are his biggest shortcomings. Normally he is fine against weak teams, but he is exposed to the maximum extent against strong teams."

"I estimate that Mourinho will make substitutions soon. If he wants to take advantage of Manchester City's weak offensive period to counterattack, he will definitely need the frontcourt players to win the ball."

"Look, whatever you say, Manchester United replaced No. 9 Lukaku and replaced No. 10 Ibrahimovic."

Lukaku's back as he walked to the sideline was lonely, and he also knew that his performance was not good.

Ibrahimovic patted him on the shoulder, "Don't take it to heart, keep working hard."

Then Ibrahimovic strode onto the green field, glanced around with disdain, and rested his eyes on Otamendi.

After the game restarts.

Manchester United's overall tactics have not changed. They still defend solidly and pass long balls upfield.

As a 36-year-old veteran, Ibrahimovic has so much experience in the game that he knows how to deal with defensive players.

After coming up, he had several tough confrontations with Otamendi, clearly trying to suppress his opponent mentally.

Soon Manchester United's counterattack took off.

The 63th minute of the game.

De Gea made a long pass. Ibrahimovic held Otamendi and headed the ball to Lingard behind him.

As soon as the latter stopped the ball, Fernandini pounced on him, intercepted the ball expertly, and took the ball back.

"Danger!"

"Manchester United's forward pressing exposed the space behind the defense. This is the opportunity Manchester City is waiting for!"

"Fernandinho passed the ball to David Silva and Chu Feng was very active in grabbing it. His hand movements were a bit big!"

They both fell to the ground.

Beep!

The referee decisively blew the whistle to indicate a foul and also showed a yellow card.

Chu Feng had no objection to this.

My defensive level is not good enough, so I can only intercept in this way, otherwise the consequences of letting David Silva pass will be disastrous.

A yellow card is perfectly acceptable.

David Silva looked very helpless. He found that Manchester United's No. 7 was really difficult to deal with. He didn't look like a teenager at all. He was simply calmer than himself.

At that time, you can still make accurate judgments.

At this time, Mourinho frowned on the side of the court. He did not expect that Manchester City's offensive was too strong and completely suppressed his two wings.

Now you can't attack, you can only passively take a beating.

But he knows that sticking tight will never work, because Manchester United's opponent is Manchester City, and they will become more and more fierce after playing with momentum.

Moreover, Guardiola has not made any substitutions yet, so he definitely has a backup plan.

The other side.

"Let Gundogan and Mangala warm up."

Guardiola rubbed his chin and whispered to the assistant coach.

"If we can't take advantage of the high altitude, we can simply use a forwardless formation and use running to tear apart Manchester United's defense."

"Yes, we will change to three central defenders next to strengthen the penetration of the center."

"."

Guardiola's right fist hit his left palm hard and he kept talking to himself.

He found the right answer.

The perspective returns to the green field.

The set kick is about 38 meters away from the goal, and the threat of a direct shot is minimal, so it must be a tactical battle for the top.

Therefore, Manchester United players adopted man-to-man marking and squeezed Manchester City players outside the penalty area. "David Silva drives forward. Smalling makes the rescue!"

"Mistake!"

"He failed to push the ball out of the penalty area! Sane made a follow-up shot."

"The goal went in!"

"Manchester City, with a height disadvantage, equalized the score with a free kick!"

"This is a dramatic goal!"

"The entire Manchester United must pay the price for Smalling's header error!"

There was also a cry in the live broadcast room.

At this time, Chinese fans were a little worried that Chu Feng was blaming himself too much. After all, it was him who sent the free kick. He thought it was a good foul, but who would have thought that Manchester City would score a goal with this opportunity.
-

[Smolin’s state is a bit up and down! 】
-

[He seems to have lost his confidence, his performance this season has not been very good, and he has made low-level mistakes before. 】
-

[If Bailey hadn't been injured again, he should have been the one to play. 】
-

[Is it better for Xiao Chu not to foul? 】
-

[If you watch the replay carefully, Sane and Sterling have already started to speed up. If David Silva is allowed to pass, he will definitely be able to pass the ball to his teammates with his long passing skills, forming a one-on-one opportunity. 】
-

[If it’s Sterling, it’s not impossible. 】
-

[Although Sterling often misses empty-net goals, his scoring efficiency ranks among the top three in Manchester City. 】
-

[Yes, because his running position is so good and he has too many opportunities, that's why he seems "happy". 】
-

[I hope Xiao Chu won’t blame himself too much. This goal has little to do with him. If Smallin hadn’t missed the goal, it would definitely not have been scored. 】
-

[What you say is a bit narrow-minded. Football is a team sport. If everyone divides the pot like you do, there will be no team spirit at all. 】

【.】

Old Trafford.

Wow! ! !

Loud cheers erupted in the away stands. Manchester City fans, who had been suppressing for more than 60 minutes, finally had a chance to vent their anger.

This goal is the beginning of the counterattack!

Today they will trample Old Trafford under their feet, make Manchester United's 44-game unbeaten record disappear, and then leave with three points and declare to the world who is the master of Manchester.

Manchester United is the noisy neighbor!

In the flying snow.

They hummed extremely soothing and tender tunes, adding a sense of warmth to the court.

"Blue Moon!"

"Now I'm nolonger alone!"

“Without a dream in my heart (Without a dream in my heart)!”

"."

Unlike the unrestrained Manchester United anthem, the Manchester City anthem is more beautiful and gives people the feeling of a lullaby.

The Manchester City players on the green field also celebrated excitedly.

There is no shortage of surprises on the football field. Some are surprises and some are shocks.

David Silva looked at Chu Feng subconsciously.

You should be a little annoyed, right?

It's a pity that he couldn't see any negative emotions on Chu Feng's face, which was as calm as the cold snow.

His vigilance was instantly raised to the highest level.

"Keep working hard, we can definitely win the game!"

not far away.

"My question, sorry."

Smalling punched himself irritably, seeing that victory was within reach, but he lost it again.

"If you have this time, why not think about how to defend next!"

Just as the Manchester United players wanted to comfort them, they were interrupted by Ibrahimovic. He continued to scold seriously: "Are you a little relaxed because you are ahead?"

"This is a 90-minute game. Don't think you can win the game before the final whistle blows!"

"We are a team and everyone has to pay for the mistakes of the team and now we have paid the price."

"Next we have to make up for our mistakes!"

"And sending the ball into the opponent's goal is the best way to make up for it!"

"Understand?"

The Manchester United players looked at Ibrahimovic's ferocious expression and nodded vigorously.
