Chapter 075 Old Trafford Stadium 7
"Yes! It's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!"
While Carrick hit the football into the goal, there were huge cheers in the stands. All Manchester United supporters raised their arms high and jumped up from their seats.
In the Manchester bar, there are Manchester United fans and Manchester City fans. At this time, there was a burst of cheer in the bar where Manchester United fans were, and in the bar where Manchester City fans were, the fans hugged their heads and their eyes were full of regret and regret.
In the case of leading two goals, it was actually equalized by Manchester United, which is indeed a great blow to Manchester City fans. Of course, on the contrary, it is also a great encouragement to Manchester United fans.
At this time, Manchester City head coach Mark. Hughes is also making a choice in his heart. Is it to continue to defend steadily and strive to hold the score of 3 to 3, or to suppress the attack and try to exceed the score again?
In a sense, the score is three to three, Mark. Hughes was still acceptable. He took a point away from Old Trafford Stadium, which was a very good result.
But, Mark. Hughes is also worried that the team's retraction will be more permissive to Manchester United. Once Manchester United goes crazy, it will be difficult not to lose the ball.
Mark. Hughes hasn't made any adjustments in time. Manchester United almost scored again.
After Manchester United equalized the score, morale became more vigorous, and they continued to put pressure on Manchester City's goal.
Cristiano Ronaldo is dribbled.
Compani went up to intercept, and at this time, Giggs suddenly inserted forward to the other side, and Dunn quickly followed. At this moment, Manchester City's two central defenders focused on Cristiano Ronaldo and Giggs, who seemed to be ready to cooperate, and ignored the others.
Cristiano Ronaldo shook his shot and suddenly pushed a straight pass in the middle!
No one expected that Rooney, who had been interspersed for a long time, received the ball in a non-offside position.
Then, the little fat man broke into the penalty area with the ball!
"Single knife - Rooney's chance! Manchester United's chance to overtake the score!" The commentator exclaimed.
There were deafening cheers at the Old Trafford Stadium. Everyone knows that this is a great opportunity to score a goal!
If Rooney can seize this opportunity, Manchester United will overtake the score!
Seeing Rooney get a single shot, Manchester City goalkeeper Joe. Hart's decisive attack
Rooney didn't seem to expect Johart's attack so decisively and quickly. As soon as he took two steps, he saw a huge figure in front of him. Rooney did not hesitate and shot!
Because of Joe. Hart's attack was very timely, largely blocking the best angle of Rooney's shot, so Rooney deliberately pursued the angle when shooting.
In this case, the football bypassed Joe. Hart's defensive range also bypassed the goal post, and the football almost slipped through the door!
"WWWOWOWOWOWO - the ball didn't score! This is a great opportunity! Cristiano Ronaldo's pass was quite timely, but unfortunately, Rooney didn't catch it. What a pity..." Reinkel shook his head and sighed.
"Joe. Hart's attack was very timely, which also put great pressure on Rooney, otherwise he would have been able to pass the goalkeeper's shot calmly!" Eddie. Gray said that he was for Manchester City goalkeeper Joe. Hart offered a commend. Although Joe. Hart didn't jump to the football, but his attack was critical and decisive!
Originally Mark. Hughes is still hesitating about the tactics of the rest of the game, but Manchester United's attack reminds him that he must make a decision immediately. Whether it is offense or defense, he must make adjustments as soon as possible!
Mark. Hughes's conservative character played a role again, and he decided to continue to consolidate his defense. The team began to play defensive counterattacks in the following games. Don't lose the ball is the primary goal. As for whether the counterattack can be effective, it depends on luck.
Manchester City was replaced again, Robinho was replaced, and Sun Jihai came on as a substitute.
This still means to be kept.
Sun's position after the sea field was fixed in the midfield, and his main task was to help the team defend. This Chinese player is a versatile player who can play in multiple positions, which is also an important reason why Sun Jihai can be liked by several Manchester City head coaches.
Seeing that Robinio was replaced, Zhang Yang's face became more and more ugly. It was clear that the head coach was satisfied with getting one point, or in the face of Manchester United's attack, Mark. Hughes chose to give up the attack.
Mark. Hughes' tactical adjustment is not what a bad or right choice for Manchester City. The head coach has his own consideration, Mark. Hughes felt that he would be satisfied if he got one point, so his tactic was indeed appropriate.
However, for Zhang Yang, he must be unhappy. He is eager to win. If you want to win, you will naturally attack. He is a shooter. Naturally, he wants to score goals and use goals to help the team win!
This is not the first time this has happened. In the game against Liverpool, Mark. Hughes also chose to be conservative in the second half of the second half and replaced Zhang Yang, which also led to the long game. Manchester City finally drew with Liverpool. That long game was also Zhang Yang's first time with Mark. There was a conflict between Hughes.
Mark. Hughes's substitution also sent a tactical message to the players on the field, that is, defense. A draw is also acceptable.
Since the head coach has made such tactical adjustments, Manchester City players can only obey. Now, Manchester City has to focus more on defense on the field, which not only slows down Manchester United's offensive, but is more comprehensive and passive.
For a rich opponent like Manchester United, once Manchester United takes the initiative, it is absolutely quite a threat.
Manchester City is now completely passive and can only rely on Zhang Yang's personal ability to launch a counterattack with the ball.
MacLei cut the ball in the backcourt. He passed the ball directly to Sun Jihai. After the latter received the ball, he passed the ball to Modric. When Modric received the ball, he saw Zhang Yang's running position in the front court, and then he passed a long diagonal pass.
Then, everyone saw a blue shadow flashing by. It was Zhang Yang, and his penetration speed was quite fast.
Modric's pass was good. Zhang Yang caught up with the football, and then took the opportunity to wipe into the penalty area.
However, Evra, who came quickly, made a crucial interception. He shoveled the football out of the sideline with a tackle against the turf. At the same time, he also put Zhang Yang to the ground.
This position is closer to the side road.
Modric's free kick passed into the penalty area and headed the goal. Unfortunately, he was too straight and was hugged by Manchester United goalkeeper Van der Sar.
Then Van der Sar quickly threw the ball and launched a counterattack.
Zhang Yang wants to score a goal and want to help Manchester City overtake the score, so Manchester United is not the case. They hope to score another goal and win the game in reverse!
Therefore, the goalkeeper quickly throws the ball to launch an attack, which is also a very timely counterattack.
Carrick received the football, and he immediately passed the ball to Cristiano Ronaldo.
The latter received Carrick's pass. He was about to carry the ball, but he was put down. It was Makelele!
There was a boo in the stands of Old Trafford Stadium. Obviously, Manchester United fans think that MacLei has fouled. This should be a yellow card!
However, the referee didn't say anything and didn't think it was a foul. MacLei shoveled the football first.
"No foul! The referee signaled the game to continue!"
Macrelei not only stopped Cristiano Ronaldo from advancing, but also stabbed the football to Modric in front of him.
Modric controlled the ball and looked up at the situation in front of him. He knew that he didn't have much time and had to find the route to pass the ball as soon as possible.
He looked forward, and Zhang Yang, Wright-Philips and Saballeta on the side were all inserted in front. It is reasonable that these three points are the choice of passing the ball.
However, in an instant, Modric made a decision! He swung his foot and passed the football long to Zhang Yang, who was inserting in front of the highway!
"...It's up to you, Zhang!" At this time, Modric subconsciously chose to pass the ball to Zhang Yang.
Carrick was on the football line. He jumped up and wanted to push the football to Evra behind him. He reached the football, but Zhang Yang took the lead, grabbed the front of Evra, and intercepted the football.
Not only did he cut off the football, but Zhang Yang took the opportunity to put the football forward, and he accelerated again.
Evra came to pick it up. He was shocked when he saw Zhang Yang take the ball. However, he was still accelerating at this time, and his inertia made him unable to stop. He could only watch Zhang Yang's "man ball pass" from him!
Now, after Evra, Zhang Yang is in front of him.
Breaking through by speed is the sharpest weapon. The feeling of fast horse light is the best thing for him. The opportunity to fight back is fleeting. He immediately raised the speed to the highest and killed him with the ball at high speed!
"Zhang Yang, he passed Evra! The opportunity of Manchester City!"
After watching Zhang Yang's ball and passing Evra, he took the opportunity to enter the penalty area, and the Old Trafford Stadium booed loudly.
Ferdinand came up to defend Zhang Yang. He has been fighting with Zhang Yang more than once. He knows that Zhang Yang is powerful. At this time, Ferdinand dares not grab it easily. He knows the speed of Zhang Yang. As long as he eats and shakes easily, he will be turned by Zhang Yang. He followed Zhang Yang cautiously, with only one purpose, and he stuck Zhang Yang's shooting angle! This counterattack forced Manchester City to be consumed by the lack of a chance to shoot.
Zhang Yang obviously knew Ferdinand's intention, and he naturally would not let himself take the ball into a dead end.
Zhang Yang suddenly lowered his speed and made a fake shot. He swung his foot and put it down. Ferdinand moved slightly and made a defensive shot, but the center of gravity was still there. You can make the next change at any time.
Seeing that Ferdinand did not eat, Zhang Yang suddenly looked to the right side of the restricted area.
Is this to pass the ball?!
Over there, Vidic is defending Zabaleta. However, to be on the safe side, Zhang Yang still can't pass the football. To put it out, such a pass, as long as someone touches it, will pose a great threat.
When Ferdinand saw that Zhang Yang was going to pass the ball, he immediately made a decision to block Zhang Yang's pass, even if he gave Manchester City a corner kick.
Sure enough, Zhang Yang sleed his right foot again, and Ferdinand immediately took the first step. Moreover, in order to expand the defensive area, he grabbed this step, subconsciously two. The space between the legs becomes larger.
This is the time when Zhang Yang is waiting!
This is not a pass!
He shot directly!
Football from Ferdinand is two. The legs passed quickly, followed by the Van der Sar's small door behind Ferdinand and rolled into the net behind him.
The goal - actually scored?!
In!
