Chapter 103 It feels good to watch the game
In the 36th round of the English Premier League in the 2008/09 season, a focus battle was fought at Old Trafford Stadium. In the previous 150 Manchester derby games, Manchester United had the upper hand with 60 wins, 49 draws and 41 losses.
Last season, Manchester City beat Manchester United for the first time since the 1969/70 season. Among them, the away victory was the first victory in 28 away games in 34 years.
The two sides have played 23 Premier League games in history, with Manchester United with 13 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses, including 6 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss at home. Tevez, Giggs, Rooney, Evans and Rafaar took turns to enter the starting lineup. Ferdinand was absent, and Li Yu did not enter the list at all. In the live camera before the start of the game, Li Yu was sitting in a seat near the rostrum and waving to everyone.
Although Ferguson said that the derby game would be very difficult when facing the media before the game, it was obvious that this was the old man who poured ecstasy into his opponent again. After the opening, Manchester United fully occupied the offensive on the field. Li Yu, as a viewer in the stands, has roughly known the result of today's game. The difference is only one It's just a goal.
It is obvious that after the opening of the Manchester United team today, they will have a determination to win without giving their opponents any chance to breathe.
In the 3rd minute, Raphael passed all the way down from the right. Ronaldo cleverly blocked the ball back in the penalty area and followed Park Ji-sung's diagonal shot 15 yards on the right side of the penalty area. Manchester United's first shot made Li Yu unable to sit on the seat and immediately stood up to celebrate. He thought it was a goal.
He is also a Manchester United fan. He found that the ball did not score and made a regretful voice. Today, Li Yu is more like a genuine fan. She is not like staying in the stands before. She wants to take a kick by herself. It turns out that it feels good to watch the game!
Just a minute later, Manchester United made a comeback. Midfielder Fletcher intercepted Elano's pass and handed the ball to Ronaldo's feet at the first time. The Portuguese who returned to the winger position was active and excited after the opening. All Manchester United's attacks were carried out through him. It can be seen that he also wanted to be without Lee. Reflect your value well in Yu's game. Although the media has never compared him with Li Yu, the players themselves know that Li Yu's limelight has been over his own recently. Who will easily accept defeat? Ronaldo will always be a proud warrior in the green field. He will not flinch, only use it well. The performance is to prove itself.
A series of dazzling and wonderful things. The Portuguese have completely turned today's Old Trafford Stadium into their own back garden. Manchester City's midfielder De Jong's two consecutive shovels made C Ronaldo easily dodge. Manchester United fans have seen C Ronaldo's intention, which is completely Playing with the opponent, he passed the opponent twice in a row, and the excited Manchester United fans kept screaming with C Ronaldo's movements.
However, Li Yu is worried about his teammates. Although De Jong just came to the Premier League, it didn't take long for the Dutchman to become famous. His fierce defensive style is very much like Gattuso. Gatso, Italy, has the nickname of butcher. In the Premier League, Manchester City spent a lot of money to get a butcher. The second!
It's not a smart way to play with such an opponent. Li Yu hoped that Ronaldo would pass the ball quickly to avoid some unnecessary trouble. Li Yu's idea was really in advance on the field. Ronaldo passed the ball, and Tevez removed the ball in front of the penalty area without any pause, and immediately lowered his foot. The shot, but the ball was a little biased. Manchester City goalkeeper Jivin did not move and confiscated the Argentine's shot.
Seeing that Manchester United completed another shot, Li Yu also laughed. It was not because of anything else. What she laughed was that she was worried about just now. Maybe if she was on the court, she would not pay much attention to it. After all, C Ronaldo was obviously playing HIGH at this time, and he came. The onlookers are clear, but his turn may not be as calm as Ronaldo on the court. If he has such an opportunity, he will definitely break to the end. No matter who is standing in front of him, you don't discuss it!
While Li Yule was thinking about things, Manchester City finally completed the first attack of this game.
RoviƱo showed his dexterous style of the ball, and his unexpected running position won him this opportunity. However, he did not shoot himself, but chose to pass the ball in front of the penalty area. Elano's shot on the left side of the penalty area missed the near corner.
"This Brazilian is very thief to play football!" Li Yu gave Robinho such an evaluation in his heart. Perhaps this is the reason why Brazilians can become a well-known striker in today's football without physical advantage. However, the thief is a thief, but it is obvious that the Brazilian is extremely unconfident in his body. He avoids it to the greatest extent with a dexterous running position on the court. No physical contact with the defender.
"Such a striker who is afraid of contact can't become a top scorer!" Li Yu unconsciously gave the Brazilian such a comment, which was very pertinent. There was no derogatory element because the Brazilian was a sworn enemy Manchester City player.
Soon Li Yu's sight returned to the field, and Manchester United suppressed Manchester City with an attack. This time, Evra on the back line plugged in the attack and completed an accurate pass on the side. C Ronaldo hit the ball directly from 25 yards in front of the goal, but the shot was still a little positive, and he was hit again. Wen confiscated. Although Ji Wen is still holding the shot of Manchester United players in place, he knows the real situation. It is the ball that he finds himself, not his own shot. If the shot is a little more biased, he can't do anything about shooting. He can only say that he is lucky, but can such luck be maintained to the end?
Jiwen himself couldn't believe it. The anxious old goalkeeper roared loudly at the back-line player of Manchester City. He was very dissatisfied with his team's defender, so that his opponent could always shoot in an unguarded situation. What is the responsibility of the defender?
The roar of the old goalkeeper seems to make Manchester City's defenders much clearer. The strength in defense is obviously much better than that in the opening stage. C Ronaldo was knocked down by Manchester City's central defender Onu Oja in a breakthrough, and the referee immediately awarded a free kick. Ronaldo stood up without saying anything and worked himself. In the 35-yard free kick he created, the Portuguese told his opponent with a series of iconic penalty moves that he was going to shoot directly. After the ball was sent out, it was a pity that he was blocked by the wall.
C Ronaldo immediately ran to the referee on duty. He realized that the ball should be re-punished. The opponent's wall did not return enough yards at all. After the ball was kicked out, C Ronaldo felt good, but Manchester City's wall blocked the ball without even jumping. Obviously, it moved in advance or did not retreat enough.
However, the referee ignored Ronaldo's words and waved his hand to run away without any problem.
This free kick did not succeed, and the same thing would happen to the next kick. Obviously not!
Manchester United took the lead in the 18th minute. Ireland fouled Rooney in front of the penalty area. Ronaldo once again ushered in a free kick, moving forward a lot more than the previous position. The Portuguese solemnly placed the ball and began to retreat, exhaled deeply with a solemn face, adjusting his breathing rhythm. After hearing the referee's whistle, he looked up at the wall of Manchester City.
Ronald C moved more, and a loud sound appeared in the Old Trafford Stadium. None of the Manchester United fans were still sitting in their seats. They all stared nervously at the field. The layman watched the bustle, and the insider watched the doorway. Li Yu felt that the ball was inseparable at a glance!
Ronaldo was more straightforward. When he saw his main penalty ball leap over Manchester City's wall, he turned around and shrank his neck and raised his hands. His movements were telling everyone that there was no way to score the ball.
Sure enough, the celebration of the tsunami in Old Trafford came, and Jiwen didn't even react at all. He could only see the ball scored in the lower left corner of the goal, 1:0!
Ronaldo opened the opponent's goal for Manchester United with an iconic free kick. "Manchester's old goalkeeper Jivin is old. He can't react to Ronaldo's free kick. Just like his previous two saves, he still hopes that the ball will take the initiative to send it into his arms?" The local commentary is very interesting. Instead of saying how wonderful Ronaldo's free kick is, he is saying that the opponent's goalkeeper is old!
Li Yu had long been infected by the atmosphere around her in the stands and joined the army of ** celebration. Li Yu, dressed in casual clothes, looked so different in the stands. The camera lens quickly found his figure, completely recorded his celebration process, and played back on the big screen.
At this moment, Li Yu is like a big child, with her expression and movements very exaggerated. The fans at Manchester United at home laughed when they saw Li Yu's appearance!
"It's like a gorilla. The gorilla is also celebrating for Manchester United!"
"LEE is quite cute. I like such a little man!"
"It's different from the court, haha..."
Generally, players who watch the ball in the stands will keep their points. It's really rare to be so involved like Li Yu.
Even the players on the Manchester United bench laughed. Looking at Ferguson chewing gum while laughing, he knew that he was very satisfied. Whether on the field or in the stands, his disciples were good.
Originally, Li Yu was allowed to rest, so he didn't have to come to the scene to watch the game, but now it seems that this boy is very relaxed. The effect of the holiday looks good!
After the goal, Manchester United's offensive did not weaken at all, and they were still attacking the opponent.
Especially the left side of Manchester United, where Ronaldo and Evra are located, performed positively and well today.
Ronaldo's appearance on the left side completely suppressed the right side of Manchester City. Evra can boldly plug in to participate in the attack. The Frenchman's back plug can often be seen in the game, which is also extremely threatening.
It was Evra's previous pass again. He had been ambushed on the side for a long time. Ronaldo attracted Manchester City's defensive attention by taking some balls in the middle. The Portuguese didn't even look at it and directly divided the ball. Evra immediately chose to pass back to the middle and accurately found Fletcher, who was 25 in front of the goal. There was a strong shot immediately at the yard, but unfortunately it missed the near corner of the goal.
Soon, Manchester City finally organized an effective attack. Robinho received a pass from Cassedo. After deftly getting rid of Raphael in front of the penalty area, he immediately chose a low shot, but the angle was too small, and the power of the shot was not very large. Van der Sar The hand was safe, and I saw the ball deflected from the left post.
After Li Yu watched Robinho finish the shot, she had a question about how the Brazilian scored less than 20 goals this season. At such a shooting level, of course, the main reason why Li Yu doesn't like Robinho's shot is still the power of the shot, unless he shoots at a close range in front of the goal. However, the Brazilian's shooting power can't threaten the goalkeeper at all!
It is surprising that such a player can score double-digit goals in a season. Li Yu feels that it may be better for such a player to play a winger and use his dexterity and talent to create opportunities for his teammates to score goals.
From the visual level, it is a little reluctant for Brazilians to appear on the front line!
In fact, Li Yu's idea is very close to the reason why Robinho lost popularity in Real Madrid. Real Madrid realized this that it let the famous Brazilian go.
After Manchester City's attack, Manchester United taught the sworn enemy of the same city a good lesson, telling Manchester City's players what the real attack is. Evra seems to have completely become a winger in this game, and his pass on the left side. This time, it was the Argentine Tevez who received the French pass. The Argentine, who was not too conspicuous in the game, shot from the far corner column at the edge of the penalty area on the left side.
This is the unique feature of Tevez. He is not obvious in the game, but as long as he sees the figure of Argentina, the opponent's goalkeeper will be in trouble!
Unfortunately, Li Yu was as annoyed as Tevez on the field. She held her head and couldn't believe it was true. Of course, the director of such an interesting scene would not let go. Through the goal just now, the live director gave Li Yu a seat. Obviously, Li Yu did not let him down. When this interesting defense When it appeared on the big screen, the Old Trafford Stadium burst into a happy voice again. The fans liked to see the players' true feelings. Li Yu greatly satisfied the fans' preferences today.
Of course, many fans also feel a different Li Yu, but such Li Yu looks more real and cute!
Entering the second half of the first half, the game began to look a little dull. Manchester City tried to attack and kept putting pressure on Manchester United in the midfield. Of course, Manchester United could not let the opponent do so. During this period, the players of the two sides devoted most of their energy to the midfield competition, and the scene of turning over was always on. Acting, but at this time, it is more like a real Manchester derby.
However, just as the first half was coming to an end, Manchester United seized the opportunity to expand the score again in the 45th minute. Manchester City paid the price for their lax in the final stage of the first half. It turned out that in the face of Manchester United, as long as the referee did not blow the whistle at the end of the game, you could not have the slightest chance to relax. Because it is fatal.
After Rooney intercepted the opponent's casual inverted foot in the front court, he immediately made a direct pass. The ghostly Tevez appeared in people's sight again. He hit a buckle in the arc of the penalty area and easily smashed Manchester City's central defender Dunn immediately, and the ball was full of strength. But the angle is the same tricky. Today, the Argentine's feet are as smooth. The ball hit the inner side of the right column and bounced into the net. Poor Jiwen still stayed in place without moving at all, watching the ball enter the net.
2:0!
Manchester United scored another goal in the first half of stoppage time. Looking at the low morale of Manchester City players, it can be seen that Manchester United has no idea of kicking their rivals at home at Old Trafford Stadium!
Manchester City head coach Mark Hughes couldn't suppress his anger at this time. He howled loudly on the sidelines. The pressure in the Derby could no longer keep him calm. This game is related to the qualification of the UEFA Europa League, which is also the last life-saving straw for his coach.
Mark Hughes, who used to be calm, was angry. This goal may have heralded the final direction of the game. Compared with Manchester United, Manchester City, which spent a lot of money, is still not good. Although Hughes is unwilling to admit this, the fact of the game is already obvious. Manchester City players may be technically inferior to their opponents at all. United, but in terms of confidence, momentum and fighting spirit to win the game, it is completely the same level as Manchester United, which may be the embodiment of the background and comprehensive strength of the two clubs.
Money is not everything, and the background can't be formed overnight. Manchester City still has a long way to go, but Mark Hughes may not have much. The roaring Manchester City head coach turned around and disappeared in the player channel. The half-time to welcome Manchester City players may not be much different from Manchester United's hairdryer!
When the Manchester United players finished the celebration, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game in the first half of the minute.
In the first half of the game, Manchester United completely suppressed the opponent. Li Yu was very excited, forgetful and relaxed. Watching a game can really relieve a lot of pressure. It feels really good. Both goals are wonderful.
"There should be no problem in the second half of the game!" Li Yu got up and left his seat, but he didn't go to the toilet or anything. He was going to get up and leave. There was no problem for the team to win the game, and the role of relaxation was also achieved. He chose to only watch the half and go back to complete the special training. There are two main reasons. One is that he doesn't want to face media interviews. There is nothing to do with him in the game. He doesn't seem to be blocked by the media again. He answers questions about his game at all to evaluate the performance of other people. Li Yu is not used to it!
The other is that you don't want to have any conflict with Manchester City fans. It's better to leave early!
In the second half, the live broadcast director found that Manchester United No. 9 could no longer be seen in Li Yu's seat...
