The most low-key superstar

Chapter 282 A devastating goal!
The away game against Porto was a new attempt for Nichols. The team's tactics were offense, and there was a lot less consideration for defense. The most important thing was that there was no protection behind Nichols. Carrick used to Or Anderson, or Fletcher, in short, Nickel used to be able to devote energy to participate in the offense with confidence, but now it is different. Behind him is the back line, and he has a lot of concerns.

But fortunately, Coach Ferguson did not do too much. He made the two defenders stand one behind the other. Vidic's position is relatively prominent in the back line. To some extent, Give Nicole a little protection.

Nickel, who didn't dare to press too hard, focused on coordinating in the midfield, and kept sending shells to the front. Manchester United's offense was not inferior to the opponent.

There are more and more exciting scenes, especially the Porto team. Their offense began to show its power under the cheers of the home fans. At this time, many Manchester United players understood why the Jazz insisted on offensive tactics, because if they did not invest the most power to launch the offensive , With defense, what the situation will look like is really hard to say.

When the game progressed to the 40th minute, Porto's unremitting efforts will finally be rewarded handsomely. Evra assisted and went up. Before he could come back, the opponent's counterattack started. But the referee didn't say anything, and the game continued.

Rolando gave the ball to Gonzalez, Gonzalez made a long pass to Manchester United's left space, Rodriguez pulled to the side, and then an inside move made Vidic defending There was a pause in the center of gravity, and then Rodriguez crossed the ball in front of the goal. Lisandro, who responded in the middle, failed to compete with Ferdinand.

Mariano stopped the ball with his chest, and it was a half-turned volley!
Mariano's shot timing was very good. Suddenly, Van der Sar was not ready, and the most important thing was that Mariano didn't look at the goal when he shot. He just relied on a subconscious, general direction Judgment only.

This is the ability that a good shooter must have. Mariano missed several chances today, but the angle of this shot was very tricky and powerful. Although Van der Sar reacted in time, the ball still hit the crossbar. Along, the goal net was bounced fiercely, and the net was also hit high.

"The ball—go in!!!"

"World waves!! Beautiful!! Great!! With this ball, Mariano will make the whole world remember him."

"A key goal at a critical moment!"

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!! Mariano!!!"

There was a tsunami of cheers erupting from the Dragon Stadium. The fireworks that hadn't appeared for half a day were lit again by the fans. Thick smoke enveloped the stadium. The enthusiastic atmosphere made people think that Porto had won the final victory.

"No. 40 minutes, Porto finally scored a goal worth a thousand dollars. The fate of the two teams may change drastically with this goal."

"Mariano, he has lived up to the trust of coach Ferreira. After missing a few opportunities, he used a world wave!! Yes, it can definitely be called a world wave! He took the lead in knocking out the opponent's At the gate, Porto leads 1:0 at home, and the total score is tied at 2:3!"

"Fucking bastard!" Mr. Ferguson shook his hand resentfully. The ball made him curse his opponent's shit luck in a low voice. He believed that if Mariano was given a hundred chances like this, he wouldn't be able to kick it like this. Such a ball, but at this critical moment——

Originally, many people had a lot of opinions on Ferreira letting Mariano start and letting powerful center Hooker sit on the bench. They believed that Porto's strong attack must allow the opponent to have their own support points in the penalty area, otherwise, The offensive effect will be poor, but Mariano was very active after he came on the field, and several shots were very threatening. Now, this goal has blocked everyone's mouths.

"The significance of this goal is not just a question of getting back a goal. This will put the Red Devils Manchester United in a very difficult situation. Without this goal, Manchester United successfully maintained the score until the end of the half. The pressure will go to Porto's side, and Manchester United will have a lot of room to choose, whether it is defense or counterattack, it will cost the opponent a heavy price."

That's right, Manchester United's advantage has become very small, even dangerous!

At this time, Porto's away goal showed its preciousness. Now Porto is still one goal behind, but in the second half, if they can score another goal, and at the same time, they can prevent Manchester United from breaking the deadlock. This away goal, although the total score is 3:3, but Porto will eliminate Manchester United, and they can advance to the semi-finals with their heads held high.

A lot of Porto fans in the Dragon Stadium are discussing this issue enthusiastically, and in bars of all sizes, and in the square outside the stadium, all the fans are beginning to dream that their team can be as they imagined In that way, they overturned the Red Devils Manchester United at home in one go.

On the contrary, many Manchester United fans are very worried. They also know that the situation is not good. The camera captured the faces of many frowning fans. The stands of the fans are very quiet. They are gathering strength and preparing to cheer for the team in the second half, because the first half of the game has ended.

In the last few minutes, under the command of Nicole, the Manchester United team did not make a big counterattack, but consolidated the defense line to prevent the opponent from taking advantage of the chaos to find opportunities again. This point is very clear to Nickell.

"Oh yeah... Mariano, he bastard, you're a fucking genius, a total genius!!!"

Ferreira in the stands celebrated very crazily just now. He almost jumped up from his seat, not at all like a 60-year-old old guy. His madness made UEFA officials dumbfounded. They opened their eyes and saw the enthusiasm of the Latin faction, even if they were sitting on the ball, it didn't affect them at all.

When the game restarts, Ferreira really hopes that Manchester United will counterattack desperately, so there may be a chance, a very big chance, but the orderly defense and strict organization allow Ferreira to see the giants. He could only sigh softly because of the background of the team.

On the way back to the dressing room, the Porto players walked briskly. Most of them had a belief that they must beat Manchester United back to their hometown in the second half. This goal gave them too much hope.

"At the end of the first half, both teams showed enough aggressiveness, and the leading one was not conservative, but obviously Porto, who played at home, seemed to have better luck, while Manchester United missed several good chances to score. There is reason to look forward to the remaining 45 minutes together."

The players of Manchester United were a little nervous. They didn't know whether Mr. Ferguson would send the thunder. As experienced professional players, they certainly knew that the team was facing great difficulties. It couldn't be said that it was unprecedented, but at least it was at stake.

However, Mr. Ferguson was not angry, he couldn't be angry, because apart from the conceded goal, Manchester United's players did a good job and threatened Porto's gate many times. It was successful, and the opponent's attack has been disintegrated.

"I still say the same thing, don't care how many goals your opponent can score, the key is whether you can score one more goal than your opponent. In the first half, everyone was pretty good, but we lacked some luck, and everyone has to put in more. The key is Goal!"

After saying this, Mr. Ferguson stopped talking, and kept talking with the assistant coaches in a low voice.

"Well, guys, we have to teach them some lessons, otherwise, we will be looked down upon by our opponents." Nickel knew that he had to stand up at this time.

"That's right, we just want to attack and slap them with a goal." Rooney said aggressively. Rooney was the saddest person who conceded a goal in the first half. The opponent successfully intercepted the ball from his feet and scored in a counterattack. The ball, although he thinks it is a foul, but that's just what he thinks.

According to regulations, Ferreira can return to the locker room during the halftime break, so before the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Ferreira and the UEFA guards left the stands and arrived. Waiting outside the locker room for the players to return.

The two UEFA officials saw the other side of Ferreira again. Every player who came in, Ferreira would jump up and give the player a high-five. When the last player walked into the locker room, Ferreira Leila turned to the guard and asked, "Can I go in?"

"Of course, you are free now."

"A goal! We are only one goal away from the next opponent, boys, I am proud of you, we are so close to success, it depends on your pull." Ferreira is still his iconic inspiration .

A few simple words made the players' blood boil again, and they all yelled, "We will definitely do it!"

After the start of the second half, just like the first half, they once again used confrontation to declare their determination. Both sides came and went, not giving in to each other. Good head.

"The real decisive battle is coming!"

"Be patient! Don't rush to play the ball! Don't follow their rhythm." Perrin reminded his players with his proud throat on the sidelines, because Mr. Ferguson found that Porto's speed became faster after the second half, obviously The opponent hopes to provoke Manchester United's players to fight with them, so that there will be more opportunities. In comparison, Manchester United's organization is stronger than Porto.

Under the reminder of the coaching staff, Nichol also began to control the rhythm. In the second half, especially the conceded goals in the first half, Nichol also realized that he had to make greater efforts and could not look forward and backward.

Nickell received a pass from Anderson, turned around and dunked, out of Costa's defense, and then passed the ball straight to Berbatov who ran out of the penalty area to meet.

Behind Berbatov was the opponent's defender Sissoko. Under the opponent's tight defense, the Bulgarian could not turn around at all. Berbatov had no choice but to pass the ball back because he was not good at feet.

At this time, Nani has already started to overlap, and according to Nicole's performance during this period, Nicole will definitely pass to that side, so Costa, who is defending Nicole, starts to move ahead of time, and he is going to intercept Nicole's pass halfway. pass the ball, then counterattack, but,
"Oh!"

The football flew straight to the left side of the goal towards the fired shell.

Nicole hit the ball with a long shot. This time, Nicole straightened his feet and hit the ball head-on. The ball was fast and straight, without any arc, but there was a deflection during the flight.

"Shoot!! Nicole's sudden shot!"

Because of this deflection, Helton's saving action was a little bit worse, and he could even feel the football rushing past his fingertips.

"Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!!!!!! Nickel! GOAL!"

"Oh my God, that's the way it goes in! So clean!"

"A long-range shot from 35 yards, full of power! Nicole, he returned the color in the most manly way."

"Manchester United's goal would have been a devastating goal, it was too timely, Man United's advantage was extended to two goals again, the stoppage offset Porto's away goal, the Portuguese's effort is very likely because The goal was in vain."

After scoring the goal, Nicole was of course excited. Such an exciting goal is not often scored. He kept waving to his teammates and asked them to celebrate with him.

The Manchester United fans, who had been silent for a long time, finally got a chance to vent. They sang the Manchester United team song loudly, waved scarves in their hands, and jumped up and down neatly, "Nicole GOAL!"

Seeing the opponent's arrogant celebration, the angry Porto fans used their own way to warn the opponent, that is, all the things in their hands flew to the Manchester United players on the sidelines, and more people threw the debris in their hands to the sidelines. In the stands of Manchester United fans, if there were not a large number of policemen standing in the middle, a big battle would be inevitable. Even so, it would cause some confusion. Manchester United fans are not good people, and their counterattacks were quick. , The coins were prepared by them a long time ago, but fortunately there are not many.

Unlike Mr. Ferguson's overjoyed, Ferreira remained silent. He just whispered to his assistant Gomez that Hooker can play, and defender Sissoko will be replaced. Porto's formation has changed to a 334-[-]-[-] formation. , they must be desperate.

The fate of Porto was cornered. When Mariano's goal opened the door of hope for them, Nicole's goal violently closed the door of hope and added another lock. .

Mr. Ferguson also quickly made adjustments. He replaced Berbatov with Fletcher and re-adjusted the formation to a 442 formation. At the same time, the order was to turn the team into a defensive state.

Nicole's goal was a big blow to the Porto players. They tried to get direction from Ferreira, but it was Gomez who sat in the familiar position. Their head coach sat in the stands today, but , Hooker's playing made it clear to everyone that this is the order of the head coach, to attack, to attack desperately.

After the game restarted, Porto's offensive flooded into Manchester United's half. This is Ferreira's strategy. He will put the greatest pressure on the opponent for the rest of the time. The defense line collapsed, so there is still a glimmer of hope for Porto's promotion.

"Control the ball, don't hand it over easily." Nickel felt that his teammates' tactics were too simple, always kicking the ball forward in a hurry, and did not make full use of the width of the court to mobilize the opponent, which was too easy Lose possession.

Under the organization of Nicole, Manchester United strengthened the organization in the counterattack. They always crossed each other, increased the pass, and then handed the ball to Nicole, who decided the whereabouts of the ball.

After such an adjustment, Manchester United's counterattack is very threatening, instead of destroying the ball aimlessly just now, so that Porto can invest in the attack unscrupulously.

When they were attacking, Manchester United's counterattacks threatened Porto's backcourt from time to time, especially Nicole, who kept throwing the ball behind Porto's defense line. Rooney and Tevez attacked the opponent's defense line. Let the Porto fans feel terrified.

Soon, the pressure shifted to Nichols. At this time, Nichols took on the heavy responsibility of throwing shells to the frontcourt of Manchester United and became the initiator of the counterattack. Of course, the players of Porto would not make it easy for Nichols. Costa and Gonzalez went to Nickell.

In the 75th minute, Manchester United once again controlled the ball passed from Porto into the penalty area from the wing, and handed the ball to the wing. After several passes, the ball was handed over to Nicole, and Costa blocked it. , Fernando slammed into Nicole from behind, trying to make Nicole lose his center of gravity and control of the ball, but he had no idea that his physical contact had no effect at all, and Nicole's body was almost numb. He didn't move, but Fernando staggered and almost fell.

Costa tried to poke the ball away from Nicole's feet, but Nicole pulled the ball back, and then swung the ball to the left. Costa used both hands and feet. He knew that his team's rear strength was not much. Never let Nicole rush over.

However, Nicole suddenly changed direction, flicked his right hand, Costa's body staggered, his footsteps were a little chaotic, and Nicole was about to rush over.

"Don't let him pass!"

Helton shouted loudly, he knew how dangerous it would be if Nicole broke through, and they couldn't bear any more.

Helton's reminder surprised Fernando and Costa, because they found that they could no longer control Nicole, and the other party had already completed a breakthrough against the two of them.

Watching Nickel rush past the interception of the midfielder and run directly to the hinterland of his side, Gonzalez knew the danger.

Fortunately, Gonzalez still has a chance, he almost like a wrestler to the ground, his move caused great dissatisfaction of Manchester United fans, boos everywhere, although it is an away game, although there are few people, They still made their voices heard, even if they were quickly silenced by the Porto fans.

"Oh...Gonzalez, this foul is very bad, let's see how the referee decides?" England's commentator said jokingly, he was already in a good mood, and Manchester United's promotion was just around the corner.

"Manchester United's counterattack is likely to result in a goal. Gonzalez's foul is almost Porto's most... oh, oh, red card! The referee showed a red card, Gonzalez!"

　In the last chapter, there was a mistake, Tevez was on the front line, but Nani was accidentally written, I apologize here.
