Chapter 139 Yang Shen, super fake center!
Chapter 139 Yang Shen, super "pseudo" center!
On December 16, Manchester United welcomed their 18th round of league opponent at home...Stoke City!
Stoke City is now ranked 15th in the Premier League standings, and is temporarily only 2 points away from the relegation zone, but no matter how much they want to score points, they will not hope to score points from Manchester United at Old Trafford.
That's unrealistic!
Stoke City's head coach Paul Ronbel is also a Scottish coach. In recent years, he has been coaching in Aston Villa, Blackburn, Wolves and Stoke City. He has coached in every club for a short time, which is also because his team-leading performance is not ideal.
This time, he led the team to Old Trafford Stadium. Ronbel never thought about taking away points from Old Trafford Stadium. He led this bad team... can he compete with Manchester United, which has always been the leader this season?
Just kidding!
And the result of this game proves that Lambert is still very self-aware...
After the game started, Manchester United, who played at home, still encountered some difficulties. Stoke City's French central defender Kurt Zuma, who was loaned from Chelsea, is a very strong central defender and has recently been selected for the French national team.
Kurt Zuma’s biggest advantage is that his physical fitness is very good!
How good is it?
For Manchester United's Lukaku, a beast-like center, Kurt Zuma can compete with him alone!
Some of Manchester United's tactics around Lukaku were all suspended due to the existence of Kurt Zuma!
Until the 21st minute, Matic sent a long pass from his own half to the penalty area at a long distance, and the ball flew directly from Manchester United's half to the right of Stoke City in front.
When Matic passed the ball, Yang Xiaozhuang only crossed the center line for about ten meters, but when the ball flew fifteen meters in the air, Yang Xiaozhuang also completed a 30-meter sprint run on the ground that was almost more than lightning.
The ball arrives...the people arrive too!
Under Yang Xiaozhuang's rapid impact, Stoke City's defense line was completely decorated. They were like wooden stakes and were all thrown away by Yang Xiaozhuang in an instant.
It's like when running the highway, all cars are driving normally at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour, and suddenly a sports car with a speed of 180 kilometers per hour will come out. Then it will definitely surpass all opponents in the car river, because relatively speaking... other cars are still!
And Yang Xiaozhuang's sprint...Stoke City's defensive players are relatively still!
After receiving the ball, Yang Xiaozhuang drove the ball forward for three or four steps before adjusting his pace frequency, and kicked the ball from the closest corner into the goal... 1:0!
After Manchester United led, Stoke City still played very tenaciously. They didn't think about winning the ball, and they didn't even think about getting a draw. Now they are just one goal behind, so keep playing!
In football games, mentality is invisible and invisible, but... it is really important!
Stoke City has a good attitude, so their strength can be displayed normally. Some players even play harder than usual in the game. I just hope that if they are attracted by Manchester United, they can enter the giants in one step.
In this way, Stoke City performed well, and they had also studied Mourinho's offensive routines around Lukaku before, so they actually resisted Manchester United's offense. At the end of the first half, Manchester United, who played at home, was only one goal ahead!
1:0, this is the most unsafe score on the football field. Of course Mourinho could not satisfy this score. He could also see that his opponent has studied Lukaku's center tactics very thoroughly and was ready early. Could it be... he still wants to steal my home?
So... Mourinho changed the formation!
When Lukaku was injured, Manchester United used the "pseudo-center" tactic for a while. Now, seeing Kurt Zuma staring Lukaku tightly, Mourinho simply changed his mind.
This line of defense in Stoke is indeed strong enough, but... I don't know if you are fast enough!?
The second half begins... Manchester United substitutions, Martial is on, Lukaku is off!
With Martial on the court, Rashford's position was also adjusted from the left to the right, and Yang Xiaozhuang, who was originally charged on the right, was switched to the middle.
Mourinho himself did not expect that this change would be amazing!
In the 47th minute, Manchester United launched an attack from the right. Ashley Young dribbled the ball near the center line and made a straight pass to Rashford who was pulling the edge in front.
Bang!
Rashford is really not greedy for merit now. His mentality has been completely adjusted. He no longer regards himself as an efficient scorer, but has completely become an efficient winger!
This pass can well reflect Rashford's grasp of the passing timing on the wing, and his increasingly exquisite passing skills. The most important thing is... he has adapted to Yang Xiaozhuang's speed now!
The ball was directly passed to the penalty area on the right side of Stoke City. Yang Xiaozhuang once again turned into a "supercar" and rushed through the gap between Stoke City players wearing blue jerseys.
Bang!
The moment he caught up with the ball, Yang Xiaozhuang kicked the ball diagonally near the free throw point, and then he continued to sprint forward...
This time, even the goalkeeper of Stoke City could not keep up!
When Yang Xiaozhuang caught up with the ball again, what he had to do was very simple, just hit the empty goal with his left foot... 2:0!
"The ball is in! Yang, it's God Yang again! This is his second goal in this game. We are now leading 2:0. The tenacious Stoke City has caused us a lot of trouble, but now the balance of victory has completely leaned towards us!"
At Old Trafford Stadium, Manchester United fans are already celebrating this goal crazily. Everyone loves the supernova developed by their club. It’s really this Chinese boy... it’s so rare!
In this game with a clear distinction between strength and weakness, fans far away in China finally saw the live broadcast of the provincial station, and the ratings... were completely overwhelming!
Especially when Yang Xiaozhuang scored these two goals, there was already a lot of discussion on the Internet. The word "Yang Shen" even became the word that Chinese netizens used the most that day, far away from a certain traffic star ranked second.
Chapter completed!
