Chapter 069 Old Trafford Stadium (1)
Ferguson sat on the coach's seat, chewing gum in his mouth, which was his signature gesture. When he was sure, he would do this. After Manchester City 1-0, Sir Ferguson was a little worried at first, but after watching Manchester United's performance in the subsequent game, he felt that there was no need to worry too much. Manchester United was normal, and the goal was lost at most was just a small episode at the beginning.
However, this time, Manchester City's seemingly uninnovative long pass counterattack, Raphael actually emerged, Zhang Yang turned around and shot in the penalty area, the football was saved by Van der Sar, and then, a Manchester City player shot into the net...
At this time, Sir Freud could no longer calm down.
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL!”
"A beautiful counterattack! The goal was Sabaleta! Manchester City was ahead of Manchester United 2-0 away! Their condition was surprisingly good!!"
"goa1!goal! Sabaleta! He completed a beautiful blow, and Raphael made a mistake. This was a fatal mistake. For a top shooter like Zhang Yang, as long as he is given a chance, he can create a threat! Van der Sar has tried his best and saved the first shot, but he has no choice but to Sabaleta's supplementary shot!"
"We were so surprised. Manchester United is now behind Manchester City 0-2 at home. They were scored two goals by Manchester City in ten minutes!"
Old Trafford, which was very noisy just now, suddenly became quiet for a moment. Then a huge boo sounded.
Amid the booing, Sabaleta slid on both knees and rushed towards the corner flag. His passionate celebration also ignited the enthusiasm of Manchester City fans, who shouted the names of the Argentinians!
"Oh oh oh, we have an Argentinian, he's in! His name is Sabaleta! He scored a goal! Olala, oh la la!"
English fans are good at expressing their emotions with singing. They can always make up a lot of live songs dedicated to the outstanding players on the court.
On one side are Manchester United fans booing, while on the other side are Manchester City fans singing loudly. Old Trafford is really bustling like a grand theater at this time.
After Zhang Yang shot, he saw the football being saved by Van der Sar. Before he could regret it, he saw Sabaleta rushing forward desperately to complete the supplementary shot. Seeing the ball in, he jumped up excitedly.
Sabaleta rushed towards Zhang Yang quickly, jumped up and rushed to Zhang Yang, and crushed Zhang Yang to the ground. Then the Arsenal players who ran over pressed Sabaleta underneath, and the players began to celebrate wildly.
After Manchester City 1-0, Mark Hughes was a little worried about gains and losses. People often say, "It is easy to change the country and nature is hard to change." This sentence is the same when it comes to a person's coaching style. Although Mark Hughes has determined the tone of attacking in this game, after seeing the team really lead by 1-0, he began to worry about gains and losses. At this time, should he start to defend properly? Or continue to attack?
At this time, seeing Zabaleta scored, Mark Hughes kept hanging his heart and finally relaxed. If 2 to zero, he began to have a certain confidence in his heart.
Mark Hughes turned his head and looked at the Lord's not far away, and felt a little emotional inside. He did not expect that he would lead the team to capture Old Trafford Stadium one day.
Ferguson was quite annoyed by the concealment of the goal, and he kept mumbling and scolding.
"Our middle defense is useless! Let the opponent launch a fast attack!"
"That simple long pass actually made them score?!"
"Raphael! Your eyes were caught by a dog! It actually made a headshot and even let them score the goal!"
"And you! Leo! Raphael is still young and he is not experienced enough. Why didn't you make up for the seat in time? What are you thinking?"
Ferguson roared loudly on the sidelines without hesitation. From young player Rafael to veteran Ferdinand, he was scolded by him and did not save any face.
Raphael was blushing, obviously feeling a little overwhelmed by being scolded.
Ferdinand did not express much. Obviously, he had long been used to such a situation. Ferdinand came over to comfort Raphael who had "made a big mistake".
"Don't think too much, boy, if you perform well in a while, the old man will praise you, but if you keep thinking about what happened just now, the old man will definitely replace you and scold you again."
Raphael didn't say anything, biting his lip, not knowing what he was thinking. As a young player, it was not easy to get a starting opportunity in the Manchester derby, but for him, the more tragic thing is that he will face Zhang Yang, and he made a big mistake just now.
Of course, for a young man, if he can learn from his lessons instead of giving up on himself, then this will definitely help his growth a lot.
"2-0!! Manchester City led Manchester United 2-0 away! This surprised us! And all this was exactly the same as the last round of the league Manchester City played against Arsenal at home! Manchester City unexpectedly played offensive football and scored a goal soon! The beginning was the same, so will the game be like this? Will Manchester City capture Old Trafford Stadium?" Sky TV commentator Leinkell shouted. No one expected that this game would be so exciting before the game. In fact, there was a saying that Leinkell did not say it because he himself did not believe in the idea he had just now, that is, will Manchester City continue to score?!
"This is Zhang Yang's strength! As long as he is given a chance, he can create a threat. Although these two goals, one was scored by Wright Phillips and the other was scored by Sabaleta, these two goals have something to do with Zhang Yang. He is the person who has created the most threats to Manchester United on the court..."
"Haha, this is exactly why Ferguson personally lobbies Zhang Yang to join in the summer. Obviously, the old Jazz also knows Zhang Yang's ability and threat. The only way to solve this threat is to let Zhang Yang wear Manchester United's red jersey. Unfortunately, Sir Ferguson failed to succeed." Eddie Gray quipped with a smile.
Although many Manchester United fans are so angry about Zhang Yang at this moment, they have to admit that Eddie Gray's words are truly insightful. If Zhang Yang is a Manchester United player, then now, it is not the one who suffers. All Manchester United fans have to do is wait and see Zhang Yang score a goal! Unfortunately, there is no if...
Manchester United is worthy of being a giant. Although the score of zero to two hit them, they quickly came out of the conceding goal.
At this time, for Manchester United, their task is to score goals. Before the end of the first half, they must equalize the score. At the least, they must strive to score a goal and narrow the gap to one goal. In this way, the pressure in the second half will be smaller.
Once Manchester United attacked, Manchester City immediately felt a great threat.
Just now, Cristiano Ronaldo received a pass from Park Ji-sung, turned around and got rid of Zabaleta's interception, and accelerated directly, and was about to wipe away Manchester City's central defender Dunn. The Portuguese collided with Dunn and fell to the ground. The referee judged Dunn for a foul and showed a yellow card to the captain of Manchester City.
The camera also gave Cristiano Ronaldo a close-up. Although Cristiano Ronaldo's rare performance was relatively low-key in an interview before the game, the Portuguese attached unprecedented importance to this game. To be precise, Cristiano Ronaldo attached great importance to the showdown with Zhang Yang.
In the selection of the European Golden Globes, although Cristiano Ronaldo said how confident he would win the award, isn’t he really worried?
Of course he was worried. To be honest, although Cristiano Ronaldo won the UEFA Champions League championship, in the eyes of many people, he is the number one favorite to win the European Golden Ball Award this year, but if Zhang Yang really wins the award in the end, then people will only feel a little regret for Cristiano Ronaldo, but they will not feel that Zhang Yang is not worthy of the trophy, because Zhang Yang's performance in last season was also extremely outstanding. After coming to Manchester City, Zhang Yang led Manchester City's "nova team" to show a shocking result. Although Zhang Yang was unable to participate in the Champions League at the competitive level, this made Zhang Yang's influence seem to be small, but who dares to really ignore this top scorer!
In the summer, Cristiano Ronaldo has many sequelae because of his treacherous transfer to Real Madrid. Therefore, he has performed low-key in recent times, but the pride in his bones cannot be concealed. Cristiano Ronaldo certainly hopes that in today's game, he can lead Manchester United to win Manchester City led by Zhang Yang.
At this time, the zero-to-two situation obviously stimulated Cristiano Ronaldo, especially Manchester City's two goals, which were related to Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang was undoubtedly better than him in the past twenty minutes.
Manchester United's free kick.
Cristiano Ronaldo took the initiative to ask for the penalty for this set piece, which made Rooni, who was originally planning to try his best, only choose to give up. Rooni saw that Cristiano Ronaldo's face was not very good.
The quality of the free kick taken by Cristiano Ronaldo is quite good, and the football almost rubs the post and goes out of the baseline.
Manchester City's goal.
Manchester United's offensive this time was indeed very strong, so that Manchester City was even oppressed and could not pass the half.
Johart's goal kick.
Zhang Yang ferrys the football to Robinho in the frontcourt. The latter was knocked down by Park Ji-sung when the ball was stopped. Manchester City thought the Koreans had committed a foul, but the referee obviously did not think so. He had no expression, meaning that he did not commit a foul and the game continued.
Then, there was a booing sound at Old Trafford. After Cristiano Ronaldo received the pass from his teammate, he received the ball and turned around. He got rid of Modric's robbery very beautifully. Then he faced Kompani who came up to intercept, and directly pushed the ball forward. With an acceleration, he almost broke into the penalty area. In desperation, Kompani had to stretch out a kick to hook Cristiano Ronaldo down...
The referee's whistle sounded again.
He awarded Manchester United a set piece and showed a yellow card to Kompany, who was fouled.
In just five minutes, Cristiano Ronaldo forced two central defenders of Manchester City to receive a yellow card.
Although it has not been able to help Manchester United score a goal, the Portuguese's performance has won cheers and applause from Manchester United fans in the stands.
