Chapter 929 Double Red Meeting ([-])
Rooney's identity is very special. He debuted in Everton's youth training. He is an Everton fan. Then Everton is Liverpool's rival in the same city. Later, he joined Manchester United. Manchester United is also Liverpool's opponent in the England national derby.

Such an identity made him crazy after scoring this goal. All the Manchester United fans were blown away by this goal. They shouted crazily. In fact, the double red will definitely be more exciting than the Merseyside derby It attracts attention, and it attracts more attention from Manchester United and Liverpool fans than the Manchester Derby. The reason is that these two clubs are still the two teams that have won the most championships in England's top league.

At this moment, Zhang Yuan will feel the devil's home atmosphere at Old Trafford.

Speaking of this conceded goal, Zhang Yuan, like many Liverpool players, was stunned and at a loss. Why did he just lose it like this? !

"Manchester United's counterattack is of a very high level! De Gea's hand-throwing attack opened the door for Liverpool. From the statistics, Manchester United has a little advantage in possession, but other aspects are at the bottom. However, it is Liverpool's offensive and defensive transition. Manchester United took advantage of the slight flaws revealed in the game, and I have to say that their ability to seize the opportunity is really great!" Zhou Qiang was filled with regret and disappointment just like the majority of Liverpool fans.

It is impossible for any team to make no mistakes at all. Liverpool did a good job defending in front, but there was a sudden problem in this wave. Valencia's breakthrough The speed is so fast that the Liverpool players seem to be still in a daze!
Hyypia scratched his scalp anxiously on the sidelines, and then loudly yelled at his players to cheer up, the game has just begun!

Gerrard woke up and shouted to his teammates to cheer up. It is actually very difficult for Manchester United to make such an opportunity, but the timing of the goal is well grasped, so the morale of Liverpool players is not high. What a blow.

Called by the head coach and the captain, the players quickly cheered each other on. When the Manchester United players finished celebrating, the Liverpool players had already stood in their own half and waited for the kick-off.

Lu Xiaopang is not young, but when he returned to his own half, his eyes met Zhang Yuan's. From Zhang Yuan's point of view, that kind of eyes was obviously provocative, as if he was saying that this game will bring you into the game. The eternal abyss.

The abyss of eternal doom is of course impossible. If according to Zhang Yuan's previous idea of ​​breaking the can, Liverpool's current performance is already bad enough, how bad can it go? It is impossible to relegation!
But he will never tolerate Liverpool being ravaged by Manchester United in the double red meeting, "Come on! De Gea, let me see how long you can be brave!"

After scoring a goal, the self-confidence of Manchester United's players seems to have increased a lot. Liverpool is still working hard, but it is no longer as easy to get a shot as before. Circle around the perimeter of the defense zone.

This is where Manchester United fans and the media criticize them. The offense is not brisk at all. They always try to use the width to open up gaps to make the offense easier. But many teams in the Premier League, apart from other things, move very fast. , Van Gaal's team is not very effective in circles, this old man is still stubborn.

The scene fell into a stalemate. It was not easy for Zhang Yuan to get the ball in the frontcourt. Hypia's policy was to attack directly. He didn't have to retreat too deep. Now Zhang Yuan had to Staying away from the penalty area and frequently retreating to the midfield, Liverpool's formation is like a frontless formation, and the main force against Zhang Yuan has become Fellaini.

Fellaini is difficult to deal with, he is very slow, but this guy is tall and big, Zhang Yuan does not have an advantage in heading the ball in front of him, Fellaini has long legs, and he does not restrain himself at all after receiving a yellow card. If Yuan stopped the ball standing still, it would be difficult to get rid of him. Fellaini used risky actions twice, stretching out his long legs from Zhang Yuan's feet and poking the ball out.

"I have to move to catch the ball, otherwise this stupid big guy will be a bit difficult!" Zhang Yuan thought to himself.

Fellaini is very proud. Zhang Yuan is really difficult to guard. He admits, but today Zhang Yuan's catch is not smooth. The reason is that Liverpool does not have many short passes, so it is difficult for Zhang Yuan to move away. There are variables in advance. There are many long direct passes. Such passes can avoid the interception point of Manchester United's frontcourt and directly find Zhang Yuan. In such a situation, Zhang Yuan basically catches the ball at a fixed point and must rely on the opponent's defensive player.

In this way, Fellaini's advantage came. He was very tall in the high-altitude ball, and Zhang Yuan was really blown away. At least this was shown in this game. If Zhang Yuan catches the ball with his back, Fellaini will not He hesitated to use some small moves or stabbed randomly with his long legs, but thanks to his condition, he was really in a good state and achieved his goal of interference.

What Fellaini is more puzzled about is why Liverpool no longer use both sides, but always pass on the point of Zhang Yuan.

In fact, Liverpool's way of playing is like this. Once Zhang Yuan retreats, most of the ball will be passed to him, while Coutinho and Sterling use flexible running and use their speed on the two wings to attack Manchester United's penalty area with all their strength. It's an offensive way to make trouble.

But now Zhang Yuan obviously feels that this method is not correct. First of all, he can't hold the ball well, which is very deceptive!

Zhang Yuan and Coutinho made gestures, indicating that the two should switch positions from time to time. Zhang Yuan's plan was also to change the attack and avoid Manchester United's heavy troops in the middle.

So Liverpool had a change inadvertently, which Fellaini hadn't felt yet.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the sideline ball, Zhang Yuan told Gerrard that he would often change positions with Coutinho. The left side is a position Zhang Yuan is more familiar with. This way he can move, instead of running in position and waiting for the ball, so that when he catches the ball, he can take advantage of his speed, which Fellaini can't match him.

After playing for a few minutes, Zhang Yuan and Coutinho switched positions twice as if nothing had happened, but Fellaini was not vigilant at all. He followed Zhang Yuan, but Zhang Yuan was not in the middle, so he went to stare at Coutinho. Tinho.

Van Gaal could see it, but he didn't care. Valencia on this side was also very fast. Even Zhang Yuan believed that his team's defensive strength was enough to interfere with Zhang Yuan.

But he soon regretted it. In the 31st minute, Gerrard cut off Manchester United's offensive ball from the right, and immediately sent a horizontal long pass from the right to Zhang Yuan on the left. The first season has passed, Gerrard naturally knows Zhang Yuan's speed, the ball is passed very accurately, and the amount of advance is also given enough.

However, it must be difficult for Zhang Yuan to catch the ball. Valencia is not very high and has time to chase back, and the central defender Evans on this side will also move towards the ball. In this way, Zhang Yuan’s situation It can be said that there are pursuers behind and obstacles in the way.

Carrick is very experienced. He had a premonition that Evans would not be able to beat Zhang Yuan with the ball, and he would not be able to get the ball. He just wanted to remind Evans loudly to keep his distance, but Evans had already pointed to the arrow. Generally, he rushed out, and he wanted to compete with Zhang Yuan to grab the ball's landing point.

Evans' prediction is a matter of ability. He was too optimistic about Gerrard's ball path judgment. Zhang Yuan really unloaded the ball accurately two meters away from him. Taking advantage of Evans' unsteady footing, A decisive one went forward to the bottom, then cut inside, and easily bypassed Evans.

At this time, Valencia has rich experience. Knowing that Evans was passed, he immediately changed his running direction, taking advantage of Zhang Yuan's disadvantage of traversing the ball, and quickly ran to fill Evans' central defender position.

When Zhang Yuan cut in, he had to face Valencia's defense, but it was too late to think too much. If he hesitated for too long, Evans would soon be able to flank him again with Valencia up.

Fortunately, it is now in the restricted area. Valencia dare not take a step easily, but just stands in his position.

bring it on!Valencia's eyes were fixed on Zhang Yuan's feet, and he was not negligent at all. He didn't think about the surroundings at all. He was now concentrating on Zhang Yuan's. This ball will be a one-on-one match with Zhang Yuan. He is confident in his own degree of flexibility.
