Football: The butcher in the midfield at the start, the magic bird stunned

Chapter 75 The Crisis of the Civilian Team



Chapter 75 The Crisis of the Civilian Team

In the rest of the first half, although Manchester United launched many attacks, the Soviet Super League champion, who has honed his defensive toughness in hard work this season, held on to the 1-0 score!
During the intermission, Gerrard seriously warned the Rangers players in the locker room that Manchester United would definitely not accept this score, and they would play a more high-pressure attack in the second half.

And since the second game is going to be a guest at Old Trafford, a one-goal lead is not enough at all. In the second half, we must use the opportunity of the opponent's full line to counterattack and prepare for the away game!
At the beginning of the second half, the lineups of both sides have not been adjusted, but the gap in ball possession has widened.

Unlike Gerrard, who stood on the sidelines and reminded the players from time to time, Solskjaer always sat on the coach's bench with his hands crossed on his chest.

Except for occasional conversations with the two assistant coaches McKenna and Carrick, other times I watched the game silently, as if I was also a spectator who bought tickets.

However, like Guardiola, he asked his assistant a question:
What do you think of Chen Xiaoliang?
Compared with Guardiola, who has been playing in midfield all his life, Solskjaer, as a striker, obviously does not have a say in Carrick, who has played for Manchester United's main midfielder for 12 years.

In Carrick's original words, if he had Chen Xiaoliang's defensive ability back then, no one in England would remember Gerrard and Lampard.

However, the matter of the transfer has been handed over to the football director Mutaf, and the task now is to win this game.

On this point, the Norwegian, who is occasionally dubbed "So Hey" by fans after a loss, has always maintained his confidence that his boys can come back and win.

On the pitch, Manchester United have been attacking Rangers for 5 minutes since the start of the second half.

The dense defense in the middle and Chen Xiaoliang's super-large coverage made Luke Shaw on the left and B Fee who supported him on the right the starting point of the attack.

The two made several crosses in a row, but neither Cavani nor Rashford took advantage of the Rangers penalty area lined with giants.

However, if anyone thinks that Manchester United will be helpless in this regard, it is a big mistake.

Although the league is more than 10 points behind Manchester City, Manchester United is the team with the highest score in the small cycle of the Premier League BIG6 this season.

Often in difficult situations, they can inspire fighting spirit instead.

The delayed Pogba became the team's metronome. Under the support and protection of McTominay, he wandered between the penalty area line and the arc of the center circle, controlling the team's offense with side splits and long passes Direction, also affects the density of the Rangers' defense in terms of forward and backward.

At the same time, it also ensures that when the offense has no chance, the teammates in front always have a back pass point to organize the attack again.

After playing several thunderous and rainy crosses from the side, Greenwood, who switched positions with B Fee, became active.

The 20-year-old Englishman has become Manchester United's main force last season.

He is Manchester United's youngest starter in the Premier League and the team's youngest European goal scorer.

The previous managers of Manchester United, whether it is Van Gaal, Mourinho or now Solskjaer, all think that he is a genius.

Including Greenwood, these Manchester United players did not take this game too seriously, but the Rangers' tenacious performance in the first half made them realize that their opponent was not a big fish.

In the face of Morelos, Haji and Kent who are constantly robbing, Pogba still passes the ball back and forth continuously, ensuring that all the robbing of the Rangers is useless.

After grabbing a few waves, the Rangers' three forwards began to slow down their rhythm and adjust their physical exertion.

At this moment, Pogba started to dribble forward!
Alibo, who had been standing behind and kept a fixed distance from Pogba, immediately stepped forward to block.

Pogba passed to B fee!
Fee B retreated two steps, and saw Chen Xiaoliang behind him!
He scored a point to the right and gave Wan Bisaka!
The old Davis is not in a hurry to grab. His task is to prevent Wan-Bissaka from breaking through. If he wants to pass, let him pass.

The guy's lob crosses are almost non-threatening and often pass out to the baseline.

Wan Bissaka took a few steps and gave B Fei back, then he rushed into the penalty area and took Barisic away!
Facing the old Davis, B Fei didn't pay attention to him at all, and went straight to break through!
The old Davis struggled to get out of the box! Fee B's cross can't be put in casually!

Unexpectedly, Fei B kicked his right foot, stepped with his left foot, and changed the direction of the old Davis completely!

Chen Xiaoliang stepped forward to block it!
B Fee crossed to Greenwood who changed positions with him in the middle!
Goldson covered the position and marked, the Englishman adjusted a step and directly cut in and shot!
Goldson's long legs didn't have time to stretch out!
The ball flies to the upper left corner of the goal!

McGregor, who moved ahead of time, took off and made a save!But missed the ball!

The ball hit the crossbar and bounced off the baseline!

The Manchester United bench and fans felt sorry for it!
Rangers fans encouraged the team with applause!
After another 3 minutes, Manchester United made a comeback!
This time, Rashford switched to the right!

Pogba slanted a long pass and hoisted the ball into the penalty area on the right.

The ball landed just in front of Rashford!
Barisic desperately followed, but in the face of frequent changes in Manchester United's attack line, he and Davis were really tired of coping!
Facing Goldson's supplementary defense, Rashford quickly dunked the ball!He looked up at the B fee on the restricted line!Make it look like an inverted triangle!

Goldson subconsciously moved one step to the right!
At this step, Rashford instantly started to rush to the bottom line!

Goldson was completely thrown off!

Just when Rashford faced the goalkeeper from a small angle, Holland rushed over!

He got in front of Rashford!

Rashford kicked and swept towards the middle!It seems to be rumored and shot!
Holland didn't dare to shoot blindly. Once the ball is accidentally refracted in this position, it is likely to be an own goal!

He can only lie down and use his body to block it!
Yet the ball was passed before he went down!

Cavani shovels in the penalty area!

Seeing that the two central defenders were out of position, Chen Xiaoliang retreated a long time ago, shoveling the ball out of the baseline before Cavani!
Manchester United corner!

Zhan Jun: "Guide Xie, since entering the second half, Rangers' goal has been in turmoil and everything is in danger! Up to now, there has not been an effective attack that can enter the front of the opponent's penalty area. I don't know what you think?"

Xie Hui: "I believe Gerrard will definitely predict that Manchester United will counterattack in the second half, and now Rangers' physical strength can no longer press as frequently as in the first half, and in terms of current Manchester United's possession ability, Rangers' The effect of pressing is also very limited, and it is easy to lose position to create offensive opportunities for the opponent.

Now only after holding Manchester United's three axes, wait for Manchester United to become impatient, and see if they can rely on a quick counterattack to make an article yesterday. "

Zhang Lu: "I think so. This season, I have talked a lot about Rangers' ball. The current starter is already the best player that Gerrard can deploy. And if it weren't for Chen Xiaoliang's performance today, this game would have been early. The suspense is lost.

One long-range shot in the first half, plus Cavani just now, at least two can be scored.

And if you look at Manchester United's bench, there are Matic, Fred, Telles and many other people who can be replaced. These people are the absolute main force whoever they put to the Rangers.

The gap between the lineups of the two teams is indeed too great. The number of cards that the coach can play is completely different. This is the biggest gap between a strong team and an average team. "
