After grabbing the ball, Manchester City patiently moved forward and organized in Manchester United's half.

David Silva, Rakitic and Javi Martinez, coupled with the front trident and two central defenders, ensure that Manchester City has sufficient ball control capabilities.

Manchester United has no good way to deal with this. They can only stabilize their defense and quickly organize and plan a counterattack after grabbing the ball.

But at this time, Manchester United's counterattack exposed problems.

Lack of speed!

Whether it is Berbatov, Rooney, or the aging Giggs, speed is not their strong point. In front of Manchester City's two highly mobile central defenders, they do not have much advantage in counterattacks.

The protection of Javi Martinez and the suppression of Rakitic and David Silva made it difficult for them to attack Manchester City's defense head-on.

So the situation was formed on the scene. Manchester City controlled the ball and patiently organized and planned the attack, while Manchester United counterattacked but did not pose much threat.

Until the 21st minute, Robinho took the ball again, retreated diagonally to the center, and passed the ball back to David Silva, but the latter was marked by Fletcher.

He turned around and took the ball to the left, and passed it to Gareth Bale who came up quickly.

As soon as the Welshman received the ball, before Fletcher could catch up, he led forward along the left sideline and gradually approached O'Shea.

As soon as the Manchester United right back was about to get close to Gareth Bale, he saw the Welshman suddenly pressing against the left sideline and constantly approaching. First, he made a move to cut inside. After a feint, he directly used the left side and relied on force.

Use your own speed to force overtaking.

Such a simple and crude sprint, especially at such a fast speed, made O'Shea a little unexpected. He actually had nothing to do with Gareth Bale. He could only turn around and chase him behind him to prevent him from cutting inside.

.

But this time Gareth Bale did not think about cutting in. Instead, after getting rid of O'Shea, on the left side of the penalty area, before Ferdinand could get close, he made a cross with his left foot and sent the ball straight to the back of the goal.

point.

I saw Robben, who was still wandering on the right side of the penalty spot just now. After attracting the attention of the defense in front of Suarez, he quietly inserted himself from behind and met Gareth Bale's cross. He made a close pass.

He headed the ball into Manchester United's goal, which was close at hand.
Chapter completed!
