Football: The king of midfield, Guardiola is crying with envy

Chapter 174

Then the camera was turned to Carrick on the sidelines.

Manchester United coach Carrick raised his hands and wiped his face, then put his hands back in his pockets.

It rained a little in Manchester today, the temperature was very low, it was really cold, and there was nothing wrong with putting it back in his pocket.

But soon Carrick seemed to think of something, he quickly stretched out his right hand and gestured on the field.

Carrick made a position adjustment.

He asked Luke Shaw to retreat to the left back position, B Fee to the left, and C Ronaldo to rush forward, changing to 4231.

Carrick realized that the 352 formation he arranged was not a good formation for dealing with Manchester City, because if you can't control the ball in the midfield, then the backcourt is directly finished.

After all, Manchester City will not wait for your defenders to return to defense.

The game started again.

Manchester City fans were very relaxed, and they began to sing loudly at Old Trafford!

Of course, their volume was not as loud as the home team fans. At this time of lag, the powerful cheering songs from the Red Devils fans rang out at Old Trafford!

They want to cheer the team with their own voices!

Inspired by this momentum, the Manchester United players on the field began to blow the horn of attack!

In the 12th minute, C Ronaldo scored a wonderful shot after receiving a pass from B Fee!

Unfortunately, it was ruled invalid due to offside.

In the 15th minute.

Manchester United got a frontcourt set-piece, and C Ronaldo took the penalty.

Chen Chen and Grealish were arranged to the front of the wall.

Chen Chen didn't know what arc C Ronaldo would kick, but he had a hunch that the genuine elevator tomahawk was coming!

Chen Chen was right.

After missing two great opportunities, this third opportunity was seized by C Ronaldo!

The Portuguese continued his good form in recent rounds of games.

After retreating enough distance, C Ronaldo swung his arm forward and kicked out an extremely wonderful elevator tomahawk that hung straight in the dead corner!

After seeing the ball go into the net, Ronaldo ran to the corner flag area, then drew a circle with his index finger, jumped high, and rotated 180 degrees in the air!

Finally fell!

"Siu~~!!"

All the fans at Old Trafford cooperated with him!

In the studio, Zhan Jun excitedly explained,

"Elevator Tomahawk!"

"Ronaldo helped Manchester United recover a point!"

"This goal is very pleasing to the eye!"

Zhan Jun turned around and looked at Zhang Lu,

"Coach Zhang! This ball reminds me of Ronaldo's falling leaf arc against Spain in 2018, the same distance, the same backward situation! It's hard to imagine that he is a 36-year-old player!"

Zhang Lu said with emotion,

"I feel the same way!"

"Others have retired at the age of 36, but Ronaldo? He is still active in the top league at the age of 36!"

Zhan Jun nodded , and then asked Zhang Lu,

"Indeed! The 36-year-old Portuguese can still be active in the top league, which is a blessing for the entire European football world."

"I want to ask Coach Zhang, Chen Chen also had an elevator axe performance before. What do you think is the difference between the two compared to Ronaldo's goal today?"

Zhang Lu thought about it and replied,

"Chen Chen is more of a skill type, while Ronaldo is a power type."

"It is most appropriate to describe this shot as 'heavy sword without a sharp edge, great skill without work'!"

Zhan Jun agreed with Zhang Lu's statement, and he thought so too.

Chen Chen's elevator axe is more of a skill type, with a more tricky arc and angle.

Ronaldo's is a prominent sword, he allows you to see the direction of the ball, but you can't save it!

Near the corner flag area, Ronaldo clapped hands with every teammate who ran up.

Then the Portuguese turned around and waved to the Red Devils fans again, and then trotted back.

The game is not over yet, the score is still behind, and the celebration time should not be too long.

Seeing the score was rewritten to 1-2, Guardiola on the sidelines did not have too much helplessness and regret.

After all, this is Ronaldo, the man who shared the Golden Ball Award with Messi and Guagua in the past 12 years!

Being scored by him is not torture and pain!

If coaching Messi is the luckiest thing in Guardiola's life, then not being able to coach Ronaldo is the most regrettable thing in his life.

Of course, if you ask him to choose between Messi and Ronaldo, it must be Messi.

Then Guardiola rubbed his face and turned to look at Chen Chen who was cheering each other on the court.

Guardiola suddenly staggered and smiled.

Now Messi and Ronaldo have become the past tense, and Chen Chen is the future!

Messi and Ronaldo have won and lost against each other, but Chen Chen is the real invincible opponent in the same level!

On the court, Oliver blew the whistle and Manchester City kicked off.

The fourth kick-off of the first half.

Ronaldo's goal made Manchester United fans lively!

From this moment on, Manchester City players kicked off and touched the ballAt the beginning, the boos and screams never stopped!

Finally, with Grealish's cut-in kick and the ball being confiscated by De Gea, the boos at the scene really stopped.

Grealish gave a thumbs up to Chen Chen who made a wonderful through pass, and then he hurried back to participate in the midfield defense.

In Manchester City's tactical positioning in today's game, Grealish is a sharp sword on the left side, and it is not easy to return.

But because of the recovery of the morale of Manchester United players on the field and the pressure from the opponent's offense, Grealish must come back.

Also coming back to participate in the defense is B Seat, who frequently walks to the right.

So now on the defensive end, from the perspective of the broadcast, Manchester City is a 541 formation, with Jesus rushing forward, and De Bruyne and Chen Chen shrinking inwards behind the Brazilian.

In the 21st minute of the game, Manchester United got a corner kick opportunity.

B Fee took a corner kick and looked for Ronaldo!

Ronaldo headed the ball!

The header was too straight and was confiscated by Ederson.

Then the Brazilian international ran to the edge of the penalty area and kicked the ball forward!

Jesus in the front field judged the landing point correctly and headed the ball back to Chen Chen behind him.

Chen Chen quickly sprinted forward with the ball!

"A counterattack from Manchester City!"

"Chen Chen received Jesus's pass and dribbled forward."

"Bailly is coming up!"

"Marseille turn! Chen Chen used a Marseille turn to trick Bailly!"

"De Bruyne is on the right, Chen Chen passed the ball to him."

"2 vs 3, Manchester United's backcourt only has Lindelof and McTominay behind."

"De Bruyne swept to the front of the goal!"

"Jesus! Shoot!"

"De Gea reacted quickly, he blocked this sure goal with his thigh!"

"Today, Ronaldo is Manchester United's offensive hero, and De Gea is Manchester United's defensive hero!"

In the Manchester United penalty area, Jesus' shot was saved.

Because of the unstable center of gravity, the Brazilian international fell to the ground and covered his face with regret!

However, Manchester City's offensive threat has not ended yet, and Chen Chen, who followed up, got the ball again.

Without waiting for McTominay to rush over, Chen Chen swung his arm and shot directly!

De Gea, who had just made a wonderful save, couldn't react at all. He could only stand there and watch the ball fly over the goal line without being able to do anything!

"The ball went in!"

"A quick counterattack was successful, Chen Chen scored a wonderful shot aimed at the far corner!"

"It hit the post!"

"1-3!"

"Soon after Ronaldo scored a point, Chen Chen helped Manchester City expand the score to two goals again!"

"This is really a one-on-one situation!"

At Old Trafford, Manchester United fans who were still looking forward to the team equalizing the score fell into a stagnation.

And the Blue Moon fans who saw the team score again excitedly waved their arms and celebrated!

You have Ronaldo?

We have Chen Chen!
