Oh, we will wait and see!
Today at Highbury Stadium, Manchester United will face PSV Eindhoven. The match between Mourinho and Van Bommel has attracted much attention. This should be the focus of this group. "

Let's take a look at the starting rosters of both sides.

Cui Zhen stood behind the middle circle and stretched his neck. He looked at PSV Eindhoven.

The game started amid the cheers of fans in the Highbury stands.

The Champions League will generally play more steadily, and Manchester United is no exception.

After the opening, psv psv eindhoven put great defensive pressure on united's midfield.

Van Bommel's face sank on the sidelines. In fact, he never underestimated Cui Zhen, no matter whether it was the World Youth Championship or his debut in the Premier League.In fact, his heart has long placed Cui Zhen on the same level as other elite players.

But the reality is that even though he paid attention to it, and invested little by little troops to restrict Cui Zhen, Cui Zhen overcame it time and time again.

Today, his death order to the team is to contain the opponent's midfielder!
PSV Eindhoven is actually more like a three-man midfielder plus a central midfielder. Locadia went up to press Cui Zhen close to him, and then the striker Ryu Mito came back to attack, leaving only Luc De Jong Opportunities ahead.

In the 10 minutes after the opening, Cui Zhen seldom stepped into the dangerous area of ​​[-] yards in front of the opponent's goal.

Looking forward from his position, it is simply two city walls!
And the first one, the city wall on the back waist line is taller and stronger than the city wall on the back line, and it is difficult to pass!

Cui Zhen did not know the heights of the sky and the earth to face the tough.

PSV Eindhoven is not a fool, they will restrict Cui Zhen according to Cui Zhen's characteristics, they will not easily give Cui Zhen a chance to defeat them one by one, and they will also strengthen the protection of the back line, even if the position is more delayed and it looks like they will stick to it, They don't care, it's better than embarrassing Cui Zhen to create another murderous intention.

If you want to become the king in the Premier League, in addition to excellent skills and tactics, you also need a tenacious style of play that dares to confront directly.Then in the Champions League, the pure confrontation of the Premier League is of little use, because if you are too brave, you will be punished by the referee frequently, not to mention being targeted, the rules are like this, but the English game is a bit It is a school of its own, which is different from Europe.

Then in the UEFA Champions League, there are two main characteristics that the Premier League teams can play. One is rhythm. The Premier League brand is pioneering in the global market and is widely accepted. The biggest selling point is the fast pace of the game, which makes people feel more deeply. The second is physical fitness. The physical fitness of the Premier League team at this stage has begun to become an advantage. In the environment of long-term multi-line combat and no winter break, players will not have problems with the physical fitness of the European war.

Of course, the second point is still too early for Cui Zhen, this is only his first season in the Premier League.

As for skills and tactics, if PSV Eindhoven is put in the Premier League, they may not be able to achieve Manchester United's record, but in terms of style of play and skills and tactics, they will definitely surpass most Premier League teams and cannot compete with the giants. The reason is not the restriction of technical and tactical concepts, but the low individual ability of the players who make up the team.

So when it came to the Champions League, Manchester United stood out from the crowd in the Premier League, where they played high and high, and became outstanding, but not so dazzling, in the European competition, where there are more technical and tactical confrontations.

How to limit psv Eindhoven?Manchester United did not think about this problem.

Because they are strong, it is PSV Eindhoven who think about how to limit Manchester United.

When Manchester United was targeted, it was only when PSV Eindhoven significantly weakened the offense and strengthened the countermeasures of the midfield defense.

Cui Zhen is the origin of the attack that is mainly restricted in the midfield, but it is not the only or most restricted point.

The biggest threat facing PSV Eindhoven is still Rooney.

Rooney's short-range sprint ability and long-short passing ability are famous in Europe. PSV Eindhoven has also invested in key defensive forces, including Proper who sits in the midfielder and mainly helps defend this side. Nalsing in the middle is returning to the penalty area. Also be wary of Martial's inward cut, while Paulson approached the center from the other side, combined with Locadia in front, and forward Tatsuya Mito, who returned to the defense, mainly restricted Manchester United's attack in the center.

Cui Zhen has been doing regular organizational work in the middle, he is observing opponents and teammates.

Manchester United's offense is very good in the Premier League, but in the Champions League, especially when they encounter strong opponents, it does not appear that their skills and tactics are so superb, and their invincible offensive strength has been significantly reduced. Quite simply, the Premier League's skills and tactics are not rich.

In the Premier League, smooth and fast position advancement and passing and cutting cooperation are very efficient, but this efficiency will be reduced in the Champions League, because opponents are used to this style and are not as difficult to parry as most teams in the Premier League.

Because of this, Manchester United's attack did not have the effect of a hurricane crossing against the solid defense of PSV Eindhoven.

But when Cui Zhen organized and dispatched the ball with one kick, he was still frequently sending shells to the striker, allowing Phil Jones and Martial to play frequently, and then tried to create opportunities for Rooney.

PSV Eindhoven became more confident as they played. They sealed Rooney tightly and frozen Martial's passing line after turning inside. Phil Jones will not frequently pass from the outside. Rooney is not a A shooter who is good at heading, this is well known in the world.

When psv Eindhoven thought they had fully adapted to Manchester United's offense, they knocked down the magic players in Manchester United's formation, and made the king who was once hard to find in England become obsolete.

What they didn't realize was that their organizational skills became more and more proficient, and Cui Zhen, who had turned from shocking talent to epee without edge, was quietly brewing a real offensive storm for Manchester United!
Cui Zhen doesn't control the ball for a long time, and most of the time he kicks the ball out with one kick, making Locadia and Mito Ryu pinch back and forth to prevent him from stealing the ball. At the same time, he moves forward bit by bit, In the process, he intensified his back-and-forth interactions with Mkhitaryan.

He is taking off the organizational task and handing it over to Mkhitaryan!
Obviously, even though psv Eindhoven has defended Manchester United's offense time and time again, they themselves can't play any threat in the offense.

In order to maximize the use of Manchester United's resources, Mkhitaryan must release his ability forward.

When Cui Zhen restrained Locadia and Mito Tatsuya step by step, Mkhitaryan had more room to move forward!
In the 31st minute of the game, after receiving a pass from Smalling, Cui Zhen directly passed the ball back to Mkhitaryan with his heel, and he suddenly accelerated forward.

Mei Tenglong also followed closely behind, and Locadia also turned around to follow Cui Zhen, but he just ran two steps and found that something was wrong!
When Cui Zhen suddenly turned to the right side with a confident smile, from the back of the center, Mkhitaryan strode forward with the ball like a wild beast with wild domineering aura.When Mito Ryu didn't realize it and Locadia regretted it too late, Mkhitaryan dribbled the ball into the [-]-yard dangerous zone in front of PSV Eindhoven!
Cui Zhen played the ball with his heel, which won the applause of Manchester United fans for Mkhitaryan. They were proud because Manchester United played the most beautiful football in the Premier League.

This time, Cui Zhen was very agile in playing the ball, and the running impact after passing the ball was completely his own personal style.

Mkhitaryan strode the ball into the [-]-yard danger zone in front of PSV Eindhoven's goal.

Nalsin and Paulson were waiting for it. Cui Zhen ran to the right and passed Paulson. Mkhitaryan passed the ball to the outside of Cui Zhen's body, preventing Paulson from forming an interception. .

Cui Zhen didn't stop the ball, and flicked the ball with the outside of his foot, the trajectory of the football rolling changed, and it rolled to the feet of Pogba, who was closer to the side.

Then Cui Chen changed his running route and directly hit the bottom line. Paulson was thrown off by Cui Zhen's changing direction, and Pogba's through pass also arrived as expected.

Cui Zhen, who ran from the wing and cut straight into the penalty area, stepped into the penalty area with ease.

Van Bommel was so blind from the sidelines!
Manchester United's previous offense caused PSV Eindhoven's defense to habitually lean to the left. Although Manchester United made an instinctive adjustment after suddenly hitting the right this time, it was still slow!

Logically speaking, Cui Zhen shouldn't have stepped into the penalty area so easily, even if he is close to the edge of the penalty area, but he can control the ball inside the penalty area, which is very dangerous!
