Chapter 640 The Influence of the FIFA Virus

In the locker room before the game, Kintag reminded the players that they must control the midfield.Arsenal's artistic football is not only beautiful, but also smooth. Their sudden acceleration in the midfield, and then continuous passing between several players, will pose a great threat to Manchester United's goal.

Kintag specifically mentioned Petr Cech.In the current Arsenal team, although there are several powerful stars such as Ozil and Sanchez, as well as veteran Gunners such as Ramsey and Walcott, the player that Kintag is most afraid of in this game It's Cech.Since his transfer to Arsenal this summer, Cech has quickly become Arsenal's main goalkeeper, and he has performed very well in the first few Premier League games, and in the Champions League group match with Bayern a few days ago, he successfully scored a clean sheet The opponent still continues the strength of a world-class goalkeeper.

In this game, Kintag cheered up his players, advanced boldly, increased the number of shots, and strived to return to Manchester with a victory.

Therefore, from the beginning, Manchester United bombarded Arsenal's goal indiscriminately.

"Kroos' through ball, found Van Persie! Shot! The ball was saved by Petr Cech."

"Martial dribbles past Monreal! He curls the ball from outside the box! Petr Cech wipes the ball away with his fingertips!"

"Dybala shot a cold arrow at the top of the penalty area and shot the ball low! Cech blocked the ball with his foot!"

After 30 minutes in the first half, Manchester United's possession rate was 68%, occupying an absolute advantage. They had a total of 13 shots, and they were quite active on the sidelines, but...they just couldn't break Cech's ten fingers.

Seeing this situation, Kintag shook his head on the sidelines. He said to Scholes next to him: "If I were Mourinho, I would definitely not let Cech go easily. In such an excellent state, play again. There is absolutely no problem in four or five years."

Scholes replied: "Maybe Mourinho is for Chelsea's future, so he forced a choice between Courtois and Petr Cech."

Kintag sighed: "Chelsea's future? Whether Mourinho has a future at Chelsea is hard to say."

Phelan was a little puzzled: "Chelsea just signed a contract extension with Mourinho, and the contract runs until 2019."

"Look," Kintag muttered softly while looking at the field, "Maybe in a few months, we won't see Magic Bird in the Premier League..."

The Manchester United coaching staff is communicating off the field, and Wenger is also greeting his players.

"Don't let Manchester United go through the midfield so easily!"

"The striker presses up and creates more threats for them."

Arsenal's performance in recent years has not been very good. For Wenger, he now misses his veterans very much-not the goal-scoring Henry, not the midfielder Cesc Fabregas, nor the talented Pires.The person Wenger misses the most now is Vieira, the former captain.

Over the years, Arsenal's offense is still sharp, and the Gunners are still playing beautiful artistic football, but because the waist is not strong enough, there will be a problem of "abusing food is okay, but fighting tough battles is not enough".In some heavyweight competitions, the shortcomings of Arsenal's lack of hardness are more obvious.

For example, in this game, Manchester United played against Arsenal. Arsenal's biggest disadvantage is the midfielder.Manchester United were able to move through the midfield and attack.

Manchester United's rotation players performed very well in this game. If it weren't for Cech's wonderful performance, then at least they had lost more than three.

When the first half ended, the score was still 0-0.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again, and Manchester United still had the advantage on the scene.They continue to strengthen their offense and strive to break through Arsenal's goal as soon as possible.And Cech still played bravely, trying to keep Arsenal's goal.

In the second half, Jin Taige couldn't open the situation, and he replaced several main players one after another.Griezmann and Lampard appeared one after another, and the young and strong Lingard was also replaced on the field and pushed up the front line. Manchester United even played 4-3-3.

Even so, until the end of the game, Manchester United failed to break Arsenal's goal.

At the end of the game, neither side was able to break through the other's goal, and the score ended 0-0.

After the game, Kintag told Wenger: "Professor, you really brought in a good player."

Wenger was also very pleased: "Yes, I have found a treasure. This is a favor I owe Mourinho."

After the game ended, the players all returned to the national team to report for the next period of time, preparing to play various competitions on behalf of the national team.The players who were not selected for the national team also got a week's vacation to rest and recuperate.

After returning to the club on October 10, Kintag frowned when he saw the player's condition.

Most of Manchester United's players are the regular main force of their respective national teams. Even the rotation players consumed a lot of energy in the two games.Therefore, the overall state of the players is extremely poor, and their physical condition is also very poor. The impact of the FIFA virus is a real headache.

In fact, not only Manchester United, but many European giants have encountered this problem. Every time after the national team match day, the major European leagues become unpopular one after another.

But there is too little time left for Manchester United to adjust.Two days later, Manchester United played away at Everton.

In this game, Manchester United lost a 0-2 away game, and they lost without temper.The Manchester United players seemed to be sleepwalking, regardless of their mental temperament or game state, they were all very poor. Kintag tried everything, but it still didn't help.

Three days later, Manchester United ushered in the third round of the Champions League group stage, away to Russia against CSKA Moscow.

When Manchester is still full of autumn, Moscow has already snowed.The Manchester United soldiers had not recovered to their best condition, and encountered extremely cold weather, this game was even more passive.

Under the ice and snow in Moscow, Manchester United was overwhelmed by their opponents.

The Moscow players often play in this environment, so they have adapted to the heavy snow. Whether they pass or shoot, they all appear to be better than Manchester United.

Griezmann helped up Lewandowski, who had just fallen, and complained: "If the Champions League final is played here in Moscow, then they will win the Champions League in all likelihood!"

In this game, Moscow scored a long shot, and De Gea had no temper.In the snow, his take-off was obviously slower, and it was also difficult for him. In the end, his opponent went straight to the dead corner and broke the goal.

1 to 0!CSKA Moscow took the lead!
Jin Taige on the sidelines was very anxious.

Could it be that Manchester United will defeat Moscow in this game?
