Chapter 733 Manchester United ([-])

The passivity in the first 5 minutes surprised many people. As long as Schalke has Ai Huan on the field, it seems that they have never been so passive, but now everything is happening like this.

"Ai Huan should not be placed in the position of central defender. He is now under the pressure of others' offense and can't move in his penalty area. Even if he wants to play something, he can't do it. Matip's midfielder It is useless, and there is still a big problem facing Manchester United's formation." At the same time, I don't know how many TV broadcast experts all said almost the same thing, and the current problem is there. Individuals can see it.

Magath couldn't sit still anymore. He first stood on the sidelines and greeted a few players loudly, and then gave instructions to Jurado who came to him. After a while, Jurado ran to Ai Huan to meet him. After talking about Magath's new arrangement, Ai Huan had to change positions with Matip, and he stood in the position of the midfielder.

Matip played as a central defender when he first joined Schalke, but later returned to the midfield position as Metzelder's status gradually improved. This time he can be regarded as returning to his old career.

But when the camera shifted to Ferguson's face, everyone suddenly found that the old fox's face was full of smiles. According to the English broadcast, "it looks like a trick has succeeded."

But what many people didn't expect was that Manchester United's offense was hindered. At least with Ai Huan's active running and fighting, coupled with his sharp and accurate long pass, it was true that in the next period of time, Schall Ke quickly stabilized his position and launched their attack.

In the 7th minute, Ai Huan intercepted the ball from the backcourt and made a long pass to the frontcourt. Raul flew the header and Farfan's shot in front of the penalty area was insufficient and was easily confiscated by Van der Sar. After 2 minutes, Papadopoulos quickly cut inside after receiving the ball from Ai Huan, and then passed the ball to the middle. After getting rid of Evra's defense, Farfan shot with his left foot from the edge of the penalty area but missed the goal.

Manchester United also did not expect that the opponent would completely change the situation with a simple change of position, and they were a little flustered for a while, but they are an experienced team after all, so the counterattack is still very sharp. No. In the 12th minute, Farfan made a pass from the right side of the penalty area to win a corner kick, but Jurado made a mistake in this corner kick. After being cleared by Manchester United, he quickly counterattacked. Fabio broke through halftime and drove straight into the left side of the penalty area, but he was still in the penalty area of ​​Manchester United just now. Ai Huan in the middle had quickly returned to defense at this time, and Fabio seemed to be a little frightened for a while, so he chose to shoot directly, but the final shot was still deflected by Ai Huan after a bit, and was once again deflected by Neuer, who performed well today. Easily confiscated.

But then Manchester United played another good attack. In the 14th minute, Nani took the ball to face Ai Huan alone. When Ai Huan stepped forward, he made a pass with Valencia, and then The latter passed the ball to Hernandez on the left side of the penalty area to form a single shot, but Ai Huan also turned around and returned to the defense immediately, and Pepper hurriedly shot and hit Neuer to slow down the ball. Football confiscated.

And this seems to be just the beginning. In the following games, Manchester United really focused all their offensive firepower on Ai Huan, which made everyone a little surprised. Why did they choose a player who is obviously better?But their arrangement was indeed effective, but they did suppress Ai Huan in their own half, preventing him from participating in the frontcourt offense, and Manchester United also took advantage of this opportunity to launch a tide-like offensive.

No. In the 201st minute, Valencia and Giggs quickly crossed Ai Huan and then passed the ball. Hernandez shot with his left foot from the right edge of the penalty area and hit the side net. After 1 minute, Rooney took advantage of Jurado's mistake and then passed the ball directly. Hernandez passed Metzelder on the right edge of the small penalty area but did not choose to shoot. He wanted to cooperate with Rooney. He chose to pass back, but was intercepted by Ai Huan, who quickly returned to defend. No. In 206 minutes, Valencia made a direct pass again. Hernandez got rid of Matip and shot from a small angle on the right edge of the small penalty area.

Two minutes later, Papadopoulos made a mistake again when he was attacking. After being intercepted by Manchester United, he quickly moved to the frontcourt. Vidic once cooperated with Rooney and then made a cross from the left side of the penalty area. Giggs was far away. A header from the edge of the penalty area was blocked by Neuer on the line.

No. In 306 minutes, Hernandez robbed Metzelder and broke into the right side of the penalty area. The shot was once again saved by the brave Neuer. Phantom blocked in the air.

No. In the 308th minute, Manchester United used several people to cooperate to get rid of Ai Huan again. Valencia made a cross from the right, Nani ferryed from far away, and Fabio volleyed slightly higher than the goal with his left foot.

At this time, Schalke's counterattacks were pitiful, and they were completely suppressed by the opponent. Fortunately, Neuer and Ai Huan performed well, so they did not concede a goal, and this performance also made the fans very dissatisfied. Their singing voices have gradually weakened.

In the last minute of the first half, Rooney made a direct pass. Giggs made a quick attack to counter-offside and succeeded in a single goal. However, Neuer bravely saved this shot. It didn't feel easy, because Schalke's passive scene was unbearable.

After the end of the first half, Magath broke out again in the Schalke lounge. He has not been so disappointed for a long time. The players who played today are in average condition. Magath knows it, but it really makes Magath so poor. I didn't think of it either.

However, he has no better way to do this. It is not new for the current players to suddenly relax after winning the league championship and cause their state to decline, but it is really out of date to face this level of competition at this time.

Xiaoyu still has no intention of stopping, and the rain is still in a hurry. It is precisely because Ai Huan has sufficient physical strength, at least in the first half when he was besieged as a whole, he still did not show his flaws. This is also a blessing in misfortune .

"Draxler came on to replace Jurado. I want you to help Ai Huan defend, at least let him have time to go to the opponent's half. Only in this way can we have a chance to win this game." Magath Finally made a move. He watched his players sleepwalking like they were going crazy in the first half. He really wanted to replace everyone at once, but it was impossible and he could only make minor adjustments. .
