Football: From Bundesliga debut

Chapter 55 Manchester Derby 3

There were less than 15 minutes left in the first half.

For Manchester United, it is necessary to complete the equalizer while ensuring the defense.

But in 15 minutes, can they finish it so easily against Manchester City's defense?

Welbeck kicks off from the middle circle.

After a while, the ball came to the conduction again and came to Manchester United's Carrick. As the initiator of Manchester United's offense, he mainly sorted out Manchester United's offense.

With less than 13 minutes left, an attack must be planned.

The planning of the attack belongs to the planning, but Manchester City's defensive positioning will force you to start passing the ball again.

Except for Negredo of Manchester City who remained near Manchester United's central defender, the rest of the players have retreated to the midfield, reducing the midfield's activity area as much as possible, so that Manchester United needs to make long passes.

Carrick has noticed Zheng Lin's side. Zheng Lin's position is relatively low. This is an opportunity for him, and this opportunity is also given to Manchester United.

Taking into account the impact of Valencia, Zheng Lin chose to retreat to make room.

This is an opportunity for Manchester United!
After Carrick made a preliminary estimate, he made a long pass and directly found Valencia, who was qualified as a right midfielder.

After unloading the football, Valencia glanced at Zheng Lin's position, and he was a little puzzled, why is this guy so far behind?Are you afraid of yourself?

Besides, my speed doesn't seem to be that fast!

Since someone gave me such a spacious space, if I don't make good use of it, it would be a pity to just give it up!
In this way, Valencia broke through with the ball. After matching his speed, he had enough physical advantage to face Zheng Lin, speed and body. In the subsequent defense confrontation, Zheng Lin was directly pushed away.

As Zheng Lin was pushed away, many Manchester City fans booed at the Etihad Stadium. Obviously they were a little dissatisfied with Zheng Lin's performance. There is nothing wrong with supporting their team as fans.

But after the performance of your own players is not worthy of that worth, in their eyes, you are a parallel importer.

No matter how good it is in the Bundesliga, here is the Premier League. After four games, Zheng Lin's statistics are as follows:
Goals: 0

Assists: 2

Passes per game: 99

Precision passes: 91

Accuracy: 91%
But in the end, the number of goals scored was very small.

For the fans, the team spent a lot of money to buy you. They don't want you to do defense. What they need is offense. Play an excellent offense and complete beautiful goals.

If it is purely defensive, it is impossible to spend such a large price to buy a future "Makelele"!
It's not that I don't like Makelele here, because with such a strong player, it will be a qualitative leap for the team's defense, but what Manchester City currently needs is not such a strong player.

So that's why the fans are booing Zheng Lin; it's unacceptable for them that a player who has cost the team £[-]m just comes to the team to defend.

The feedback given to them now is that Zheng Lin didn’t play a role in facing Valencia’s breakthrough. On the contrary, he was directly knocked away by the opponent in the confrontation. "Ridiculous" thing.

If this is changed to Chelsea's winger or winger, then this is not going to be smashed into a sieve!
Zheng Lin was not unaffected by the booing of the fans. As a player, he was not able to gain the support of the fans, which put a lot of pressure on him.

But he also knows that it takes a corresponding performance to wash himself off.

I don't know if he was thinking too much, but this time Zheng Lin found that he was obviously unable to catch up with Valencia, and every time he ran, his right leg seemed to be filled with lead.

Seemingly aware of Zheng Lin's situation, both Milner and Konarov made up for it, which made Zheng Lin feel a little sad. He is only 18 years old, so he can't do his best in defense?

At most, I just fell a little bit, is this an injury?

At the same time, he also checked the status of his system;
【Zheng Lin (in normal condition), has a slight injury to his right leg.】

Flawed?

Will the mishap affect my running?

After stopping, Zheng Lin realized that his problem might be related to the meridians.

If yes, then something is wrong.

"There is something wrong with Zheng Lin's situation. Is this a strain? Or is there some other problem?"

"Judging from his running posture just now, there is a little problem, it looks like he didn't exert his strength."

However, this still depends on the situation of the parties to understand.

【You pulled your hamstring just now, take it easy! 】

Regarding the system statement, Zheng Lin felt that it was better to wait until after the game to check it out. Just after being tackled several times in a row, he injured his hamstring. This statement is a bit outrageous!
Fortunately, under the current circumstances, Zheng Lin recovered.

Even Zheng Lin himself is not clear about this situation. Although it is said that with a system, he can better control the "use" state of his body, but the current situation does not seem to be as easy as it is said.

"Facing Konarov's defense, Valencia just passed? What about Konarov's defense?"

Looking at the situation, Zhan Junjie felt a little strange. Was it just wiped away?This Konarov didn't respond at all?It shouldn't be!
Wouldn't it be said that the defender here is also injured?

Zhan Junjie was a little strange about this sudden "non-defense". It didn't look like he was injured, but he didn't seem to be concentrating. If he scored a goal, he would really be booed by the fans to the end!
Fortunately, Valencia's crossing attributes are still poor, but his offense is not as bad as imagined.

Konarov, who reacted, chased after him. Although he did not have the advantage in speed, he still had to chase back before being scored, otherwise he would really let someone score a goal.
While Konarov was speeding up, Zheng Lin, who had recovered, also chased him back, but the distance was still a bit far. If it was replaced by a super sideline, then this would be a nightmare for Manchester City's entire defense!
Valencia smashed the ball, and continued to deceive Konarov with a fake move, he cut inside!
Already at the front of the penalty area, Valencia cut inside, which is bad news for Manchester City.

Valencia looked at Nastasic who was about to come up, he took another step horizontally, and rubbed his left foot.

"Goal scored!"

"Antonio Valencia pulled one back for Manchester United, he scored after a cut inside, for him it was his first goal on the number 25 and it represented his Officially back!"

"In the 42nd minute of the first half of the Manchester Derby in the fifth round of the Premier League, Manchester United's right midfielder Antonio Valencia scored a goal for Manchester United. At this time, the score was already 1-1!"

"For both sides, this game is about who can seize the opportunity to win the championship. Whoever wins the game will have a clear advantage for their follow-up schedule."

After being scored, Manchester City did not organize an attack again. There is still time in the second half, and they still have a chance!
