Chapter 125 Free kick!

"Two goals are nothing! We will be able to recover soon!" The on-site commentator emphasized with cheering morale. △¢

Manchester United's performance on the field also seems to confirm his words.

Manchester United's offensive waves continued, completely suppressing Derby County. One wave after another made Derby County look powerless to fight back, and could only deal with the attack tiredly. Occasionally, the ball was quickly grabbed back by Manchester United.

Manchester United completely acted like "no resignation if they didn't score a goal"!

Manchester United are now fully leveraging their strength advantages. Each of their players performs well. Coupled with their advantages at home, they have achieved absolute suppression on the field. Although Derby County has performed well in defense and the entire backcourt defense is very stable, their goal still looks crumbling.

In the 55th minute of the game, Manchester United got an excellent opportunity and almost scored!

This is an opportunity for midfielder Scholes to create!

Giggs dribbled the ball from the corner of the penalty area and immediately passed the ball to Oshei who followed. Oshei crossed Roy Keane, and Roy Keane passed Rooney again. Rooney tried his best to kick the ball to Scholes.

After passing these few passes, Derby County's defense seemed a little messy. Scholes took the opportunity to accurately hang the ball to the goal, and Van Nie grabbed the position and shot directly!

Unfortunately, luck seemed to be on the Derby County side, and the football hit the post and popped out of bounds.

This is also the best opportunity for Manchester United since the opening game.

"Van Nie's shot! Ah... It's a pity... the football hit the post and bounced out of bounds, Derby County escaped..."

The tone of the live commentator seemed very regrettable. This was the biggest threat to Derby County goal since Manchester United started. Even if the football is a little higher, it will be enough to turn into a goal.

But unfortunately, I couldn't score in the end.

The live commentator continued, "...but it seems that it's only a matter of time before we score. Although we are still two goals behind, if the game continues like this, we still have a chance!"

Persuasion emphasized as if encouraged, "There is still enough time, we will definitely equalize the score!"

Manchester United has launched a ten-minute bombardment against the Derby County goal. After watching their team's attack for ten minutes, Manchester United fans have also gained a lot of confidence. They also feel that the only thing the team lacks is a goal. They look forward to Manchester United winning a goal as soon as possible.

Just pull one goal back, will two goals be far away?

In this mood, they shouted to cheer for Manchester United, and the voice accelerated the blood flow of all those in it, "Come on! Manchester United! Come on! Manchester United!!"

......

“The competition has just begun, we still have time…”

As the live commentator said, many Manchester United supporters have regained confidence in the game when they saw the team suppressing Derby County, including Manchester United coach Ferguson.

In fact, Manchester United is now just letting go of the attack on the court, which is almost the last move.

Manchester United has no choice.

The team can't even play the advantage when playing normally. The team is behind two goals again, so the only thing they can do is to push the whole line and let go of their hands to attack. Only in this way can they have a chance to equalize the score.

This is the tactical strategy formulated by Ferguson and the only option.

He believes that the team will definitely score the last goal as soon as possible, and there is no absolute certainty in tying, but as long as the last goal is scored, the chance of scoring the second goal will be much greater.

Now it depends on the performance of the players on the court.

......

Wan Sheng stood on the sidelines and watched the game.

He looked very serious and focused, but he didn't have much worry on his face. In fact, Derby County is now suppressed by his expectations. In his opinion, Manchester United can only let go of their hands and feet in the second half to have a chance to tie the score.

This is Manchester United's only choice.

Seeing this through, it is easy to arrange tactics. Going to fight against Manchester United and fighting hard is definitely not a good choice, because Derby has two goals advantages.

We have two goals advantages, so why do we still have to fight with Manchester United? If we fight, the advantages of these two goals will be reduced by most. After all, the two teams will play against each other desperately, and the advantages of two goals will naturally be much smaller.

So Wansheng’s choice is to stabilize the defense and seek counterattack.

This is also the reason why Derby County players feel a little pity for Manchester United - the team has already led two goals. In this case, the coach requires trying to stabilize the defense as much as possible, which is almost equivalent to killing the possibility of Manchester United tied. Because under Derby County's defense across the board, no team dares to say that they can score two goals in 45 minutes, and Manchester United is no exception. Therefore, Manchester United, which had little chance, has now reduced their chances a lot.

They only have that glimmer of hope to create miracles!

Just like now, Manchester United has been attacking for ten minutes and scored a lot of goals, but in fact, there are not many times that really threaten Derby County goal. Football passes around outside the penalty area most of the time. Finally, there was a good opportunity, and Van Nie hit the ball on the crossbar.

If you want to find such a good opportunity, how easy is it!?

For a long time, Derby County has been insisting on defending and has still had few counterattacks. However, "One move will decline again, and three times will be exhausted." This statement is absolutely true in football games. As time goes by, Manchester United's offense has not been able to break through the goal for a long time. They must slow down the pace, otherwise, not to mention morale or something, the players' energy and physical fitness will not be able to keep up.

At this time, the counterattacks in Derby County increased.

In the 62nd minute of the game, Derby County made a new move and Wan Sheng adjusted.

Derby County just resisted the offensive pressure from Manchester United, and by this time the defensive pressure had been much lower, so Wan Sheng was ready to make a substitution. He asked his assistant coach Diamares to call Ivan Kru on the bench. Kru was soon warmed up. At this time, Wan Sheng planned to let Ivan Kru appear.

In this game, Wan Sheng sent three midfielders to play in order to increase the intensity of pressing the whole game. In the second half, the three midfielders became the team's most important defense line, but now Manchester United's offensive has slowed down, and the three midfielders have little effect, so he needs to substitution.

The key is to change the person. Ivan Krue has a balanced offense and defense and has strong set-piece ability, which is a good choice.

Wan Sheng still likes the latter one.

The team uses defensive tactics on the court, and the offense relies on counterattacks. Even if they actively advance, there are not many players who can get in front of them. Therefore, when they arrive at the frontcourt, many times when the football passes too far, it is difficult to pass it to their teammates. At this time, the personal foot skills of the frontcourt players are very important. If they face weak defense, they can use their foot skills to make breakthroughs and then find opportunities for themselves.

This is a very important means for the team to counterattack at present.

However, relying on the individual performance of the stars is also very easy to target. For example, Manchester United's defensive players move more and more decisively, it is easy for the team to return in vain again and again, but this will also increase the team's chances of set-pieces in the frontcourt. So if there is a good opportunity, Ivan Kreu will play the role of the substitute.

In short, Wansheng sent Krue to set pieces.

Taking advantage of a chance to die. The substitution was soon followed. Ivan Krue stepped onto the stadium. The live commentator commented, "Ivan Krue came on the court. Ottoman was replaced!"

"Ivan Krew is the second Derby County scorer and scored only less than Van der Fate in the team. This player is not strong on the wing. But he can always threaten his opponents after repeated insertion."

"But this substitution seems a bit unwise. Derby County should strengthen its defense now. Manchester United's offensive is very strong, and Ivan Kreu's defensive ability is obviously not as good as Ottoman, who is the absolute pillar of Derby County's defense!"

The on-site commentator was really surprised by this substitution.

"If Ivan Krew replaced Peter Kennedy, it would be nothing, it was just a normal position adjustment, but he replaced Ottoman, which would be very strange. Ottoman is a very important member of Derby County. From the beginning of the second half to now, his defense has caused countless troubles for Manchester United..."

After all, the commentator simply said, "But it's always good news for us that Ottoman was replaced, which means that Derby County's defense is much weaker, and we will have a better chance..."

The on-site commentator is not the kind of veteran footballer. He naturally doesn't know that Manchester United's offense has actually slowed down. They need a certain amount of time to adjust before they can continue to attack. At this time, Derby County's defense is still safe. In other words, this substitution from Derby County is likely to pose a threat to Manchester United's defense.

Perhaps no one thought about Manchester United's defense at this time.

If Manchester United cannot score a goal as soon as possible, they will have no chance at all. After all, Manchester United is two goals behind. If they care about the team's defense now, what else can they talk about equalizing the score!

The comments of the live commentator do not represent the complete truth, but can increase the confidence of Manchester United fans, because his statement is biased towards Manchester United.

So Manchester United fans are thinking-

"Derby coach really made a mistake?"

"Now he made a mistake, it must be Manchester United's chance! Manchester United should take advantage of the opportunity to continue to maintain the offensive and strive to score a goal as soon as possible!"

"This may be the turning point for Manchester United to win the game!"

“…”

But no matter what the fans think, this is not a fantasy world. Their ideas cannot become the power of faith. In other words, no matter how they think, they cannot affect the game.

The next game will be held in the "format".

Manchester United's offensive had to be slowed down, and Derby County began to launch counterattacks frequently. Although Manchester United is still suppressing, Derby County's offensive threat should not be underestimated. Because Manchester United's formation is very high, Derby County often has a great threat to Manchester United's goal as long as it reaches the frontcourt, so Manchester United's defensive players have to use fouls to intercept.

As a result, in the 74th minute of the game, Derby County got an excellent opportunity. Van der Ferdinand was knocked to the ground by Ferdinand at the front of the penalty area. The position he fell to the ground was less than 25 meters away from the goal, and it extended longitudinally to the bottom line, almost against the right goal post, which means that the football position is directly opposite the goal.

Seeing the position of this set piece, many people realized the danger.

Even Manchester United coach Ferguson couldn't help but stand on the sidelines, his face full of worries; on the other side, Wan Sheng looked towards the Manchester United goal in anticipation.

There was already a player in a white jersey standing in front of the ball.

No. 12.
