431. Slip
It is precisely because of a player like Fryat who runs without any effort that Hull City's frontcourt harassment tactics are quite successful. Hull City has enough time to return to defense, and Manchester City faces the problem of buses.
The game time passed quickly, and Manchester City's style of playing today was relatively proactive. It was not as good as it did when dealing with Atletico Madrid and the success rate. Today, it seemed like they kept sending balls to the penalty area and constantly shooting long shots to test Hull's nerves.
Fifteen minutes passed, and Manchester City had already completed 6 shots, with two shots on the right side, and Hull City didn't even have a single shot.
This is quite in line with the characteristics of Hull City. Among the seven teams in the Premier League, Hull City is the team with the least goals conceded. It is somewhat inappropriate to describe Hull City's conceded 53 goals, but they are indeed the team with the best defense.
For a team like Hull City with relatively weak strength, it is difficult to make a fuss on both offense and defense at the same time. Bruce grabbed the core and did his own defense well. Therefore, Hull City is the third least scored goals among the last seven teams on the offensive end.
Manchester City has a good chance in these 6 shots, but they are not sure!
The mentality of Manchester City players has changed a little. On the one hand, I feel that Hull City's defense is not really a solid wall, and there are gaps to find. On the other hand, the players have also begun to show more selves.
As a result, in the 17th minute, Manchester City learned a lesson like blood and tears. Kroos tried to drive the ball and made a mistake in passing. Hull City seized a counterattack opportunity. Kompany made a mistake like Gerald, and actually slipped during the run. It was too late for Albiol to fill up again. Flaart drove straight in, and Hart's attacking position was not very good, and he was easily scored by his opponent!
Manchester City fans who were just happy on the scene were dumbfounded. Who would have thought that such a version would be staged in the final?!
This is really surprising!
Wen Sheng felt cold in his heart, and he stretched out his hand and smiled bitterly. The ball was thrown really...
Kompany was very upset and knelt on the ground and hammered the ground hard. The grass in Wembley might be a little wet than Etihad. Kompany didn't notice it for a while, making Hull City successful.
A big pie fell from the sky, and Bruce was dizzy when he was smashed. He didn't have to think about how Kompany slipped. Bruce happily ran a few steps on the side of the court, smiling all over his face, and then was hugged tightly by the guys on the bench.
"I'm just talking!" Bruce had to admit that he said he believed in miracles and was just talking.
But luck did come, and then Bruce quickly did an operation, and we wanted to build the bus a little firmer.
352's formation has completely become 541? The ball has been completely controlled by Manchester City.
Bruce is not a head coach who knows how to learn. Coaches like Wensheng are also his learning targets? Wensheng's idea of using ball control against ball control. Bruce thinks this experience is good? So he also wants to let his team control the ball as much as possible.
Bruce's idea is still very clear? The central defender should not do so many transmissions, as it is easy to panic, so he hopes that his team can control the wing area.
During the pre-match tactical exercise, Bruce also specially practiced this method to crack Manchester City's control.
But Manchester City is also different today. Simply put, Manchester City pays more attention to oppression today? Especially after a sudden loss of the ball, pays attention to oppression? The previous style of control playing with a dragging pace has changed.
The way of playing seems simple and pure? Bruce finds that his wish cannot be realized? After Manchester City lost the pass, he has an advantage in two points? Bruce doesn't know how they train? Anyway, Manchester City players can always appear in the right position to block Hull's pass, making it difficult for Hull City to move forward. In order to avoid making mistakes in the backcourt? Hull City had to return the ball with big feet? Relying on Flaat to face Manchester City's central defender alone? This is of course very difficult!
The only problem Manchester City faces is that Hull City's defense is really retreating deeply. They basically all of them are moving in the 30-meter area, and no matter how they play, Manchester City is playing, they are all human.
Wensheng was a little helpless when he stood on the sidelines. To be honest, at this point, all the tricks Manchester City can use depends on the players' own performance.
"Bang bang bang!" Every shot from Manchester City players made Manchester City fans in the stands full of hope, making Hull City fans worried.
But it was useless. Manchester City surprisingly completed 15 shots in the first half, but the goal was still zero.
The luck on the court is so strange. Hull City's defender didn't follow closely, and the goalkeeper was able to stand up and perform. In short, Manchester City just couldn't score goals.
Bruce breathed a sigh of relief, while Wen Sheng sighed.
Midfielder Wensheng encouraged the players to continue attacking. The bus was definitely not easy to break, but Hull City was not really impeccable. Logically speaking, Manchester City could have scored four or five goals in the first half. They created a good opportunity, but they didn't score today, so they were lucky!
"Fake! Is this God's punishment for us?!" Joey cursed.
Wensheng is still confident that the team will win. Hull City will not attack at all. They already have a goal in hand. Bruce will definitely not attack, but will only use defense. Then Manchester City's second half will be the same as in the first half. Wensheng firmly believes that he can avoid the first day of the first day and Hull City can not avoid the fifteenth sword.
So when Joey lamented so much, Wensheng asked intriguedly: "Why did you say that?"
"Because we acted so perfectly! So God tripped Vincent's feet!"
Vieira and the others laughed.
"Your reason is very unique! But we will win because God will reward those who work hard, and we work very hard!"
Wensheng's words made everyone nod, yes, this season has been so hard. The players basically don't have much holidays, they are also very hard-working in training, and try various tactics to deal with changes, hard and tiring.
After the halftime break, both sides returned to the court. Well, Bruce was not as expected by Wen Sheng!
Offense?! I think beautifully! I want to use all eleven people on defense!
Hull City's defense is not perfect, but Bruce still thinks that defending the dead is the best choice.
It’s not that Bruce doesn’t understand the saying “offense is the best defense!”, but that the offense requires people and the formation needs to be dispersed, which will give Manchester City space to imagine. Bruce is timid and dare not do this!
The FA Cup is like a beauty posing in front of him, and you can get it at a glance, how could he be careless?
Manchester City is still bombarding, and Hull City is always suffering, but no goals are scored.
Aguero warmed up on the side of the court, but the fans found that Manchester City had not replaced them for a long time.
"Go to Aguero! Come to Aguero!" Fans are always an emotional group.
Chapter completed!
