604 Yang Yang's Credit

"Liverpool launched an attack on the right..."

"Aveloa passed to the front and handed it to Kuyt."

"Kuit got the ball and crossed to the back point..."

"Vidic took the lead and blocked Yang Yang with his body. The ball went out of the baseline and the corner kick."

"This is Liverpool's first corner kick."

"Gerard sent a corner kick, Ferdinand grabbed the first landing point and topped the ball."

"The ball is not far away, but it is still in Manchester United's penalty area."

"Van der Sar attacked, and was disturbed, Crouch headed..."

"The ball returned to the front point...Yang Yang..."

"The ball is in!!!"

"goallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!"

"The 27th minute, the 27th minute, Liverpool scored a goal!"

"Crouch headed the ball, assisted Yang Yang to head the ball from a close range, breaking Manchester United's empty goal."

"Van der Sar failed to clear the ball successfully when he attacked. This time Liverpool played a successful corner kick. Whether it was the player's interference or the running support, he was obviously ready."

"In less than half an hour of the game, Manchester United was already behind with one goal."

"Ferguson looks a little disappointed. He put a lot of effort into defense in this game, but Liverpool still seized the opportunity, and it was Yang Yang, which is his 21st league goal so far this season."

"This goal fully demonstrates Yang Yang's calmness and judgment in front of the goal."

"Crouch's header came very suddenly, but Yang Yang's reaction was also very fast. He shook his head directly on the spot, pushed the upper left corner from close range, and directly pushed the ball into the goal."

…………

…………

When Yang Yang finally broke through Manchester United's goal, the emotions that had accumulated for half an hour at Anfield Stadium finally broke out at that moment, and all the fans in the audience were crazy!

In fact, this Double Red Club is more of a traditional meaning for Liverpool, somewhat similar to a derby battle.

In the standings, Liverpool is far ahead, with Arsenal ranked second. In contrast, Manchester United did not play well in the first fifteen rounds.

So far, they have lost two games and have three draws.

Looking at the previous four months, Manchester United performed best in October, the month when Rooney won the Player of the Month. Manchester United scored four goals in three consecutive games. Rooney performed very well and exploded very quickly.

During that period, Rooney scored four goals and four assists in four rounds of the league, but after the outbreak, he was affected by injuries and has never scored or assists since then, and the number of goals has been stopped at four goals.

Except for October when Rooney broke out, Manchester United's performance in other months was very average, with almost every game being bumpy and almost a goal win, and several core players in the team performed poorly.

For example, the number one star Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Portuguese, who threatened to compete with Yang Yang before the season, has been completely defeated in the first half of the league.

In the first fifteen rounds, the Portuguese played almost all the games. The eight-goal and one-assisted report card may be good compared to other Premier League players. It is currently ranked third in the Premier League scorer list, only one goal less than Arsenal's Adebayo.

But if you compare with Yang Yang, it would be much inferior, because Yang Yang scored twenty goals and six assists in the first fifteen rounds. This report card is second to none, let alone in the Premier League, even if you look at the four major leagues.

The Sun, which is close to Manchester United, believes that it is not that other players perform poorly, but that Yang Yang performs too strongly.

According to Yang Yang's current goal efficiency, with his performance this season, more than 30 goals will not be a problem.

But many media believe that Yang Yang scored twenty goals in the fifteenth rounds and was indeed amazing, but other Premier League scorers failed to score double-digit goals in the first fifteenth rounds, so it can only be said that the overall situation is relatively average.

When Premier League stars such as Henry, Hiller and Van Nystruey gathered, the spectacular scene on the scorer list was hard to see now, so that Yang Yang was far behind, and everyone else was beyond the reach of the world.

...

Since Liverpool has been in very good shape recently, although the team has just won the Club World Cup in Japan and has been running back and forth, the team is very tired, but Ferguson still dares not be careless.

Before the game, the Manchester United coach made it clear that the team's goal was to take a point away from Anfield.

In this game, although he had a 442 formation, in fact, nine players were put into defense. Many times, there was only one Cristiano Ronaldo left in front of him to fight back.

Both forwards Rooney and Tevez retreated to their own defense.

It can be seen from this that Manchester United is really very afraid of Liverpool's offense.

The grudges and opposition in history and the pressure accumulated over decades have caused players on both sides to bear heavy burdens, and even the head coaches on both sides dare not make it easy, which greatly reduces the excitement of the game.

Manchester United takes the initiative to shrink and defend, which is a big test for Liverpool's ability to break intensive offensive.

But everyone knows that breaking density is the difficulty of all the strong teams in the world.

Liverpool could not come up with an effective method in the first twenty minutes.

Yang Yang is also very difficult to get a chance after the joint efforts of Gary Neville and Hargreaves.

No matter how strong he is, he will not be able to face the attacks of two European celebrities, Gary Neville and Hargreaves, at the same time. What's more, Rooney and Tevez have actively returned to the midfield, making Manchester United's defense extremely solid.

Liverpool seems to have the advantage, but in fact they fail to get a decent opportunity.

Of course, Yang Yang was closely watched by Manchester United, and Ronaldo was also unable to escape Liverpool's defensive confinement.

In the first half hour, Manchester United star did not get any chance.

However, no one expected that Liverpool would create chaos in Manchester United's penalty area with a corner kick. In the end, Yang Yang seized the opportunity and headed the ball into the empty goal, breaking through Manchester United's goal.

This time, Manchester United became passive.

…………

…………

Ferguson reached out and grabbed the jaw hard, shook his head.

Meishan's frowning appearance revealed the stalemate in his heart at this moment.

"It was obviously not an opportunity, but he actually caught it!" Ferguson said depressedly.

The reason why it was not an opportunity was because the penalty area was too chaotic at that time, and no one knew where the ball would fly. As a result, Crouch temporarily pushed back to the front point, but Yang Yang appeared in that place in a scheming manner, and he was able to push the upper left corner in a hurry.

At that time, if he had hit the ground ball, he might not have been able to enter because Anderson was nearby.

"Van der Sar's attack this time was a bit hasty." Queros shook his head and said.

Ferguson nodded, it was indeed the case.

The most important thing is that Van der Sar failed to clear the ball after attacking, which was a mistake for a goalkeeper.

Manchester United's defense has improved considerably in the past two years, and goalkeeper Van der Sar has also been well received, but in fact, he is not without mistakes. At best, it can only be said that his mistakes did not bring disaster to Manchester United.

But this is the credit of the back line.

At the beginning, Vidic was originally valued by Liverpool's Benitez, but Ferguson took the lead and dug up Serbian central defender Manchester United, which directly created a double central defender combination between Vidic and Ferdinand.

The main reason is that Vidic is strong enough to suppress the scene. He is like Chelsea's Terry, playing the core role of the back line pillar.

The reason why Liverpool and Arsenal are unstable in the defense is precisely because they both lack a pillar-type central defender.

Without such a central defender, the situation cannot be suppressed and the defense line cannot be stabilized.

Originally, Hepia was such a central defender, but he is old now. He introduced Daniel Agh to play this role, but he has suffered a lot of injuries this season. It is said that what Benitez wants is still this type of central defender.

Carragher is the leader of the defense line, but he is more like Carvalho and Ferdinand. He needs a pillar-type central defender as a partner to play a better role and stabilize the defense line.

In fact, Liverpool has been performing very poorly for a while, with Daniel Ager injured, Hypia in poor form and frequent mistakes, and Liverpool can almost be said to be close to collapse.

But unexpectedly, Benitez relied on Yang Yang's goal, Gerald, Mascherano and others to hold on to the midfield defense, which also created Liverpool's lead now.

This is not Liverpool's overall victory or Benitez, but Yang Yang's credit.

During that time, he was almost alone in dragging Liverpool and sprinting.

Manchester United lacks such a player.

Cristiano Ronaldo has not shown superman's first-class strength this season. Rooney has played in form, but after only four games, he was injured and then his form disappeared.

On the other hand, Yang Yang has been so vigorous and vigorous for four months now.

This player has a strong ability to seize opportunities and his sense of running is also very sensitive, so he can't limit it!

Ferguson is now feeling like he has received a hot potato, in a dilemma.

If Liverpool continues to defend like this, he will definitely be happy to see him so negative, because it means they can easily win the game, which is what Ferguson is most unwilling to see.

But if you choose a more active style of playing, you will have to sacrifice your defense. Can you defend it then?

The trident composed of Yang Yang, Crouch and Kuyt, and there is a Gerald behind him lying in ambush. How terrible is such an offensive combination? Is there more to say?

Thinking of this, Ferguson sighed deeply.

"Let's wait a little longer." Ferguson said helplessly.

I thought a lot, but in the end I was just a sentence.

Queros knew what Ferguson meant, and he also understood Ferguson's difficulties.

It's too early to take risks now.

It's better to wait for Liverpool to make a mistake on its own initiative, or wait for an opportunity to counterattack in the second half.

All in all, Manchester United is very passive now.
