Chapter 1038 Unsafe Score
Offense or defense?

Sun Wu was also thinking about this question.

Now that Manchester United's morale is high, if they attack, they have a chance to blow up Liverpool's defense, but they may also be attacked by Liverpool.

If you choose a solid defense, you will not be able to decide the outcome until 75 minutes into the second half.

It seems that the latter option is more secure.

But Sun Wu chose to attack without hesitation. Attacking is the only way to win the ticket to the Champions League final!

As long as Manchester United does not score three goals in this game, Sun Wu will only command Manchester United to attack, attack, attack!
Why let Griezmann appear in the midfielder position?

Why let the young Lucas play central defender?
Why did Salah and Mane play at the same time?
Why abandon Fabinho and Herrera, who played well in the previous Champions League knockout games, and let myself and Kanter play double midfielders?

It's all about offense!
Besides, the quality of Griezmann's defense is not high, and Sun Wu's defensive strength is not strong, can he defend it?
Therefore, after the game restarted, Manchester United did not retreat, but launched a crazier attack than the previous ten minutes.

The formation is largely forward, with Luke Shaw and Pavard pressing across the half at the same time, and Sun Wu's position is sometimes even higher than Griezmann's. Kanter has to protect the position first. Kasdu overwhelmed halftime in a tactical sense.

Klopp looked gloomy on the sidelines. He originally thought that Sun Wu would choose a solid defense and decide the winner in the second half... Best, you underestimate me!
The face of Mike Phelan on the other side is also not good... What the hell is different from what was said before the game, didn't it mean that the offensive line will be adjusted after scoring a goal, and the formation will be adjusted until the second half to decide the winner? !

"It's basically a half-time offensive and defensive drill now." Mortensen shook his head and commented: "Liverpool's counterattack is completely ineffective."

In the 17th minute, Sun Wu took the ball on the right rib, and after making a pick pass to Salah, Sun Wu stepped on the ball back, and Pavar, who inserted silently, did not wait for Robertson to block it. , and directly sent the cross.

Falcao swayed in front, Griezmann in the middle and Mane in the back hit the goal but failed to touch the ball. The ball bounced off the baseline against the far post.

In the 20th minute, Griezmann made consecutive false shots in the lateral pass outside the penalty area, and then sent a wonderful oblique ball to Luke Shaw, who was inserted in the back row, and the latter swept across the goal vigorously.

At the end, Robertson managed to make a clearance ahead of Salah. Sun Wu shot from the penalty area line, and the unlucky Henderson couldn't get up after being smothered in the face for a long time.

In the 24th minute, Sun Wu played outside the penalty area and played with Henderson, who had just returned to the field. The latter became angry and shoveled Sun Wu to receive Liverpool's third yellow card. The first two were Piszczek and Depay.

Sun Wu and Griezmann stood in front of the ball and discussed in a low voice. In the end, Sun Wu made something unexpected.

"It's Best... oh, oh, powerful burst!"

Sun Wu's free kick skills are well known all over the world, but this is the first time that he doesn't pay attention to the arc, and doesn't pay attention to bypassing the wall.

"Hart missed it... a follow-up shot... Van Dijk... the goal post... the unlucky Manchester United, who scored twice in the last game, played less than half an hour today, and scored twice again!"

Klopp on the sidelines became more and more anxious. Although he had made various arrangements and planned various plans before the game, the defense was under such a heavy pressure, which was beyond Klopp's expectation.

And Klopp also discovered the changes in Manchester United, although subtle, but it made Liverpool's defense a bit confusing.

In fact, in the first 10 minutes of the game, although Griezmann played as a midfielder, he actually did not undertake organizational tasks. He stood outside the penalty area as a transfer station, with Mane on the left and Sala on the right. He, Falcao in the front and Sun Wu in the back played various coordination.

Among them, Sun Wu has the most passes and receptions with Griezmann.

It is Sun Wu who actually undertakes the task of organizing. He runs in a wide range and connects the whole team with various passes and receptions that are safe or risky.

But after the 20th minute, the situation changed.

Sun Wu appeared more on the sides, and even rushed into the penalty area to grab points, but it was Griezmann who sent a threatening ball from the outside.

Griezmann's path in this life is more tortuous than in his previous life. He was encouraged by Sun Wu to play center forward in the youth team, but he couldn't show much performance at all.

It wasn't until 2012 that Griezmann retreated from the center and forward position or pulled the side in Real Sociedad, and played brilliant data as a winger and attacking midfielder. Then he moved to Manchester United and became one of the best strikers in the world. .

Griezmann is capable of playing an attacking midfielder, his organizational skills are not weak, and he is also capable of sending various inspiring passes.

The dislocation of the identities of Sun Wu and Griezmann made Klopp grin on the sidelines. The former became a shit stick, but Liverpool could not relax its marking, and the latter's omnipotence made Liverpool unable to come up with any good solutions.

The ingenious oblique ball sent by Griezmann to Luke Shaw just now proves this point. Henderson alone cannot restrain Griezmann. You must know that the opponent is capable of shooting and passing in this position. People, also have the ability to send deadly passes.

What about Nzonzi?

He has to follow Sun Wu all the time, God knows when this Chinese will cause trouble. Just now Sun Wu caught the opportunity and scored a burst shot. Captain Henderson had to go off the field to receive treatment.

In the 30th minute, exactly half an hour, Liverpool finally conceded again.

Manchester United's players' movement within 30 meters of the opponent is very delicate and complicated. Luke Shaw and Mane on the left, and Sun Wu on this side are all closely guarded, but Lucas suddenly cuts in at a high speed to Gerry. Ziman's pass.

"Lucas is coming up!" Zhan Jun was a little nervous. Lucas played as a central defender today. Once the ball is intercepted, he will be in big trouble.

Luke Shaw accelerated to the baseline, Piszczek followed closely, and Sun Wu walked to the sideline to widen the passing angle.

Although Griezmann, who appeared in the front midfielder position in this game, became a surprise player, Sun Wu is still the most valued by Liverpool players. Not only Gotze forced him up, but Nzonzi also moved across and prepared to defend at any time .

But after Lucas made a pass to Sun Wu, he suddenly twisted his toes and stabbed in the opposite direction, accelerating to the bottom line by himself.

A numerical advantage is formed in a short period of time, but whether this advantage can be turned into a threatening attack depends on whether the ball can be sent out smoothly.

Mane did it, receiving the ball on the inside of Nzonzi, then suddenly cut in and swayed Coutinho away, faked a long-range shot and then waded laterally to erase Henderson again. .

"Lucas comes up... Mane, Mane cuts... past Henderson!"

"Mane...no one can stop him!"

"Mane... oh, Mane's heel!"

"Griezmann's shot...a feint...this time for real!"

"Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!"

"Senegal winger Sadio Mane scores a crucial second goal for Manchester United!"

After half a second of silence, the home fans in the KOP stand sent countless insults to Manchester United, and all kinds of dirty gestures caused the live camera to move away in a hurry.

Mane used his speed to cut in and break through continuously but failed to find a chance to shoot. Paval and Salah on the other side both ran out of position. Falcao was waiting for an opportunity in the penalty area, but the Senegalese suddenly knocked the ball with his heel.

Griezmann faced Bailey who was rushing up from the penalty area line and shot directly.

United's luck was poor again this time, and while Joe Hart failed to save the ball, it hit the far post.

But this time Manchester United was also very lucky. Mane quickly appeared in the small penalty area after knocking the ball with his heel and easily scored a goal.

2 to 0, 2 to 0, this score has been able to ensure that Manchester United reached the Champions League final.

But in Sun Wu's eyes, this score is still not safe.

Sun Wu waved his arms vigorously and shouted loudly to tell his teammates to go back and wait for the kick-off. If he doesn't score the third goal in this game, he will always be in fear!
