Chapter 201: Coping with intensive defense

In the bus that returned from Manchester to Birmingham, Kingtag looked at the notebook with a serious face.

In the afternoon of January 28, Manchester United ushered in the challenge of Cardiff City at home. Cardiff City is currently ranked last in the standings, and the relegation situation is worrying. In the first half of the Premier League, Manchester United once beat Cardiff City 5-0 away.

After a break, the current Manchester United starter is in good shape. In this game, Jin Taige also discharged the absolute main lineup: 4-4-2 formation, goalkeeper De Gea, defenders Ferdinand, Van Dyke, Evra and Rafa Andre, midfielders Kanter, De Braune, Mahrez and Valencia, the strikers are Marshall and Van Persie.

The opponents are weak and their players are in good condition, so Jintaige doesn't have much worry about this game.

But this game was different from what he expected.

When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the scoreboard was still 0 to 0.

Jin Taige frowned and returned to the locker room.

The goal of Cardiff City in this game is very clear: to stand still and strive to take one point away!

Therefore, throughout the first half, Cardiff City only left a forward in the frontcourt, and the rest of the players returned to the vicinity of the penalty area, completely setting up a bus in front of the door.

Manchester United players bombarded halfway around Cardiff City's goal, still nothing.

Off the court, Ferran told Scholes impatiently: "The bus tactics are so slippery, are their head coaches Mourinho's apprentices?"

The Manchester United fans at home are also very dissatisfied with the performance of Cardiff City, booing at Old Trafford.

Despite this, Cardiff City remains unmoved. They just reached the Premier League last year. The goal of this season is to relegate. If they can take away one point away, this result is already very good. As for the problem of the scene, not in Within their consideration.

Although the fans were dissatisfied, although Manchester United players stormed, they still did not score goals, which is fatal.

During the intermission, Gintag made tactical adjustments. He replaced Ichardi with Marshall and Ashley Young with Mahrez. Marshall and Mahrez, the two speed-type players, did not play well in this game, because their opponents were all narrowed near the penalty area, so they did not have much room to play the speed advantage.

Ginteger allowed Ashley Young to make multiple passes after playing, creating opportunities by playing the high ball; and Icardi played a double-center tactic after he came on the field, and he and Van Persie took root in the penalty area to create opportunities.

After the two men came on, Manchester United's offense gradually increased some threats. Despite this, they still did not have to break through the opponent's goal. The game went on for 70 minutes and the score was still 0-0.

At this moment, Jin Taige was completely anxious, there was little time left in the game, and if he continued to do so, he would run three points steadily.

With a big wave, Gintag replaced Ferdinand, who suffered a severe decline in physical strength, and replaced Salah. Replaced a guard and a forward. Kintag allowed Salah to wander around the penalty area and choose his attack style freely. He only had one requirement for Salah: to create a goal opportunity as soon as possible.

However, after Salah came on, the situation has not changed much. Cardiff City is still desperately defending. With 10 minutes left in the game, Cardiff City sees hope of taking away one point. At this stage, if you can get one more point, you can have one more relegation. Therefore, although Cardiff City is at the bottom of the ranking, they have a strong momentum in this game and vowed to hold on to this draw.

At this time, Kintag began to miss Rooney. Although Rooney could not keep up with the speed when he attacked fast, Rooney's strong body and excellent impact could still get a lot in the face of this battle. opportunity.

Unfortunately, Rooney is about to leave the team. Jintaige has already made up his mind. By the summer transfer period, he must buy an excellent center to enrich the offensive routine!

Thinking of this, Jintaige remembered a few days ago.

Immediately after the winter transfer period began, Kintag called Lewandowski and sincerely invited him to join his team again. However, Levan did not agree on the spot, nor did he refuse, but just expressed his thanks to Kintag again. He said that there is still a period of time before the end of the season, and his future must be carefully considered.

Jin Taige was not too anxious. He knew that such things were not anxious. Levan was a very calm player. It was almost impossible to convince him through a few words. In this case, just wait for the flowers. open it.

Just when Kintag was a little bit distracted, some changes took place on the court.

Because Manchester United pushed up and Cardiff City flinched, most of the people were in front of the penalty area, and even Kanter rushed forward to help the defense.

At this time, De Blaunet carefully observed the situation on the field. He felt that he didn't have much role in the middle of the road ~ www.novelhall.com ~, so De Blaunet moved to the left and came to the vicinity of Ashley Young.

During this time, the difficulty of the two side roads is also very large. Ashley Young and Valencia both had a good cross, but today there is no room for them to play well, and the side defense is stared at. Deadly. Valencia, on the right, ran for more than 80 minutes and was already exhausted.

Now Ashley Young on the left is slightly better. Ashley Young has been a substitute in the previous few games, but he did not have any dissatisfaction. Under the excellent form of Mahrez, he solidly exists as a substitute.

Kintag appreciates players such as Ashley Young and Valencia. They both have a certain strength and good personality, and can play different positions of the full-back and full-back. These players are Substitute players for any team.

The game went on for more than 80 minutes, and Ashley Young, who came off the bench, was still running. At this time, he suddenly found that De Blauney was swimming to the left and cooperated with him. Ashley Young is very happy, so that he can have more offensive means.

Seeing De Brouner coming to his side, Ashley Young pushed along the sidewalk, and at the edge of the penalty area, suddenly passed the ball to De Brouner, then bypassed the defensive player in front of him and slashed. Plug into the restricted area!

Debrauner also realized that after receiving the ball, he did not make any adjustments. He picked up the ball and passed it to the penalty area. At this time, Ashley Yang ran to the position and the ball passed just right.

Ashley Young didn't stop the ball. He hit the ball with his right foot and shot a world wave on the edge of the penalty area. The ball hung directly to the dead end of the goal.

1 to 0! Manchester United finally broke the deadlock!
