Football: Starting from the Ronaldo Template

Chapter 115 Oppression! oppression! oppression!

"In the 70th minute of the game, Manchester City made substitutions. Gundogan replaced Kompany and Mangala replaced Jesus."

"Guardiola is still strengthening his attack. It seems that he is not ready to accept a draw."

"Manchester United also made adjustments, Lindelof replaced Smalling."

"To be honest, both of them have had ups and downs. Lindelof has made many mistakes in previous games, and several of them resulted in goals being scored."

Zhan Jun sighed.

Zhang Lu echoed: "Manchester United is in urgent need of a stable central defender!"

"Okay, the game has restarted, let's turn our attention to the court."

Manchester City did not disrupt their deployment because of the goal, and the formation gradually changed to 3-4-3. This formation originated in the Netherlands, and Cruyff used it to start the craze of total offense and defense.

And Guardiola perfectly inherited Cruyff's mantle.

Manchester United players instantly felt that the intensity of Manchester City's pressure had increased a lot, and it was an all-round pressure with no blind spots.

This requires extremely high abilities from the players and also involves great risks.

Once the pressure fails, the entire system will collapse instantly, making it difficult to organize an effective defensive force.

The 73th minute of the game.

Matic received a pass from Pogba, and before he could touch the ball, he was fiercely intercepted by Gundogan and De Bruyne.

Manchester City launched an attack on the spot.

The pressing group spread out and weaved in and out of United's defence.

Nibble away!

Devour!

Manchester City players are like greedy beasts, with their mouths wide open, constantly driving away prey.

There is no complicated pass-and-cut coordination, and every move reflects high efficiency.

New three-back system!

This is a weapon created by Guardiola to adapt to the fierce competition in the Premier League. It is a true portrayal of the spiral development process of football skills and tactics in the new era.

Courtside.

The eyes of two people with different ideas met, as if they were looking forward to it.

at the same time.

Manchester United's formation has changed.

They actively retreated to the edge of the penalty area, the distance between the defense lines continued to shrink, and the space quickly shrank.

It seemed to be squeezing the air out of the attacking third zone without considering counterattacks at all.

The 70,000 fans at Old Trafford felt suffocated.

Mourinho may not have any talent in offense, but his ability to build a defensive system is absolutely world-class.

He used this extreme method that left no escape route to turn Manchester United's backcourt into an impregnable wall.

Although it seems very simple, it is just to hide and defend.

But the distance between players, the target of marking, and the use of space

It contains many factors.

In a short 10 seconds, the coaches of both sides completed the tactical confrontation.

But in the eyes of the fans, after Manchester City grabbed the ball, it suddenly stopped in the 30-meter area, and then started passing the ball around Manchester United again.

can't read.

Next, Manchester City made full use of the width of the field, receiving the ball on both wings and then hitting the middle to continue organizing.

The 78th minute of the game.

Manchester City completed a horizontal connection outside the penalty area, and De Bruyne, who penetrated into the open area on the right side of the ribs, sent a precise diagonal pass.

Football is like a brilliant rainbow.

Perhaps due to too much defensive pressure, Ashley Young's header from the back point missed the goal, but he reacted quickly and immediately turned around to steal the ball.

Sane stopped the ball with his chest and had no time to adjust, so he directly kicked off and volleyed.

boom!

The football roared towards the top corner of the goal.

The cheers of the Manchester City fans became louder and louder, as they seemed to have foreseen the goal.

At the critical moment.

De Gea raised his hands and blocked the ball.

"Amazing save!"

"Since De Gea tied the record for the most saves in a single game last time, his condition has become more and more fiery, and he exudes an aura of confidence!"

"It is estimated that all Premier League players have a psychological shadow on De Gea!"    "Let's take a look at two o'clock, Gundogan's long shot!"

"Lindelof flew to block the hole of the gun!"

"Manchester United's defensive attitude was very resolute and they did not give their opponents any chance!"

Manchester City got a corner kick on the left. This time no one made any low-level mistakes and steadily pushed the ball out of the penalty area.

The football flew off the sideline in the scramble.

The Manchester United players breathed a sigh of relief. In the face of the high-intensity attack, they just held on.

"Just defend like this!"

"Nice seal, Victor!"

"Don't be anxious, there will always be opportunities."

What is a teammate?

Trust each other, rely on each other, and overcome difficulties together.

VIP box at this time.

Yan Lanxia looked at Chu Feng, who was covered in mud, with worry and distress written all over her face, but she didn't speak.

Because she knew why her son was struggling, she just needed to support him silently.

Chu Changzheng also clenched his fists nervously.

He recalled the days when he took Chu Feng to watch football. Whenever the Dalian Shide team was in dire straits, there would always be players who stood up.

Now he wishes this man was his son.

Ferguson stood up from the bench.

Although in his opinion Manchester City is just a noisy neighbor, he has to admit that Manchester City is strong and even has the potential to become the Premier League hegemon in the future.

So if Manchester United wants to restore its glory.

The game on the green field continues.

Mourinho replaced Lingard with Mata. The latter ran for more than 80 minutes and his physical fitness had already bottomed out.

In fact, Chu Feng and Rashford are similar.

But Mourinho must keep players in the frontcourt who can counterattack quickly.

The 83th minute of the game.

Manchester City's formation retreated slightly. After all, they are not robots and cannot maintain high-intensity pressure for a long time.

But Manchester United decisively pushed out.

Although 1-1 can extend the unbeaten record at home, that is not the ending they want.

There must be a winner in today's game.

Manchester United did not give Manchester City any time to breathe and gritted their teeth to fight and press.

The pace of the game picked up again.

Due to Rashford's constant harassment, De Bruyne's passing force was stronger because this could prevent him from being intercepted halfway by his opponent.

But Manchester United players came out in full force and immediately increased the intensity of pressure.

"Gündogan!"

"Mata presses quickly, can he get the ball back?"

No.

But Gundogan seemed unprepared and stopped the ball a little too big, which was a moderate mistake.

But the smart Mata didn't stop and pounced fiercely.

In desperation, Gundogan couldn't find a better passing route and could only pass the ball to the side.

The football was transferred to David Silva's feet.

Chu Feng immediately pressed close to the opponent, constantly disturbing the opponent with his body, and at the same time calling his teammates to help defend.

Every player at Manchester United was tired, but they had played hard and their eyes were red.

In fact, the same goes for Manchester City players.

They are not at a disadvantage in this tough battle.

But under such crazy pressure, Manchester City still made mistakes after all.

When David Silva passed back to Gundogan again, Mata judged the passing route in advance and moved ahead to complete the interception.
