Chapter 471

"Opportunity! Let's see how he beats him! Hey! It's crotch! Hit the goal! The ball is in!!"

"Oh my god! I can't believe it!"

"The crotch is worn!"

"Otamendi!"

"In such an almost humiliating way!"

When Huang Ming was explaining the ball, it was too late to blow Ye Tian's assist!After all, if this ball is said to be played by Messi or other skilled players in La Liga, it is very reasonable.

But this is the British "rough" arena!It was not a South American player or a Spanish technical player who kicked out of this penalty area, but a new generation player from England!

This ball is enough to be selected as the best of the week!
Poor Otamendi will become the background board in Lin Huang's goal highlights from now on.

The 29-year-old Argentine central defender, who became famous in Porto, was taken away by the La Liga team Valencia for 1200 million euros and only played for Valencia for one season. The Abu Dhabi Group brought him to Manchester at the cost of 4460 million euros , Started his career as the main central defender of Blue Moon.

In his resume, he has played against many masters, Melo has also spoken directly, and he has successfully defended all kinds of strikers, but no one has ever humiliated him in such a way in his territory like today !

Otamendi stared at the group of Manchester United men who were running back, his eyes almost burst into flames!
……

It's almost half time, Manchester City is now 0-2 behind, and Guardiola on the sidelines is starting to worry.

There were still some snowflakes floating in the air. Guardio tightened the thick scarf around his neck and put his hands in his pockets, which made him feel warm.

A man without hair should wear a hat in this weather.

Thinking this way in his heart, he also waved his hand and asked their offensive commander De Bruyne to step up the offense.

De Bruyne's assault went deeper.

In the next attack, he had penetrated into the left side of the opponent's penalty area, but Herrera blocked his two consecutive crosses. In desperation, he had to kick the ball out of the penalty area to reorganize.

But the ball he scored was immediately intercepted by Manchester United!
Another fast attack from Manchester United.

A super long-distance long pass from the backcourt!
Landing outside Manchester City's big penalty area!

Here, Otamendi and Lingard face each other again!
And Rashford is also outflanking from the right.

Otamendi is 183 tall and Lingard is 174 tall.
Moreover, Otamendi did not lose his position!

He used his body to block Lingard's path.

The two made some physical contact, and the referee stared at each of them with wide eyes, and the whistle in his mouth would sound at any time.But in the end, he didn't find any movement toward people.

Lingard was blocked behind Otamendi and couldn't get through from the right. After trying twice, he immediately switched to the left, leaving the right side free, and allowing Rashford to attack together.

But Otamendi is now like a moving tower, which has been preventing him from receiving the ball.

Lingard instead hoped his interference would allow Rashford to get the ball.

It's a pity that Otamendi didn't focus all his energy on blocking him, but stepped forward a few steps, and when the ball bounced off the ground, he stepped on it with his feet.

Just like Lingard unloaded the ball just now, Otamendi used the same method to stop the ball to his goalkeeper Ederson before Rashford got the ball.

Ederson did not open his feet, but split the ball. Rashford looked at the ball and sighed, and an attack ended without a problem.

Under the influence of Guardiola, Manchester City attaches great importance to the control of the ball.

Subsequently, Duffy, who received the ball from the wing, passed the ball forward.

Manchester City stepped up the pace of attack, they tried to get a goal back before the end of the first half.

Faster tempo brings more offensive opportunities.

And to speed up the pace of the game, which is what Manchester United likes.

Their quick counterattack requires a fast pace, and the ball has reached their threat zone before the opponent's fence is set up.

As a result, the fans saw the ball constantly flying in the air, and the fans on the center line followed the ball to the left and right, and kept turning their heads. It felt like watching table tennis...

As time passed by, Guardiola made some gestures to make tactical adjustments.

On the field, their two full-backs suddenly switched sides.

This formed a momentary adaptation period for Manchester United's defense.

Duffy, who was on top of the assist, found a chance to play in Manchester United's ribs.

A curveball, drifting towards the restricted area.

The landing point is on the right side of Manchester United's small penalty area.

Here is the area where Ashley Young of Manchester United and Sane of Manchester City are active.

The ball landed very well, completely bypassing Ashley Young, and the outer arc made it easy for Sane to receive the ball.

Ashley Young thought that Sane was going to stop the ball. After all, it was outside the corner of the small penalty area and the shooting angle was already very small.

Moreover, Sane, a kid who likes to break through.

But this time, the player who tried to break through frequently in the first half showed his killer essence.

With a volley, Ashley Yang was in a cold sweat!
He quickly put his hands behind his back, trying to block the ball with his body.

But the ball was very fast and flew past the left side of his body.

If there is no movement of the hand back, the ball is likely to hit his hand!
But now, Ashley Young didn't have time to appreciate his wit. He turned his head and hoped that De Gea would make up for his lack of marking.

David de Gea, who transferred to Manchester United to replace Edwin van der Sar in 2011, made his debut at Manchester United a disaster, but the then coach Ferguson called on everyone not to criticize the goalkeeper, but to give him confidence and patience, so, They harvested half of the back line.

De Gea has achieved unprecedented success at Manchester United. Among his personal honors, he has entered the Premier League's best team 5 times in 4 years, the Premier League record of 14 saves in a single game, the 2017 Golden Ball candidate list, etc...

Sane, who is not fully developed, volleys from a small angle, can he break through his door?
the answer is negative!

De Gea blocked the ball out of the baseline with a beautiful lift.

At this time, De Bruyne, who was near the penalty spot, immediately raised his hand to arrange a corner kick.

The referee was watching the time. Everyone knew that halftime was over after the corner kick, and this was Manchester City's last chance to attack.

As De Bruyne walked towards the corner, he looked back at the positions of everyone in the penalty area.

When he stood in front of the corner and raised his hand, the blue figures in the penalty area had already stood in two rows.

As long as the corner kick is sent directly to the penalty area, there is no offside problem. So even if you arrange the offensive player on the goal post at this time, it is also a reasonable behavior.

There are also a lot of corner kicks that go deep, taking advantage of the chaos created by the football gliding through the penalty area to help teammates defending the post to score.

But for this corner kick, the Manchester City players did not press far ahead.They lined up in two rows, Otamendi, Jesus, Sane and Sterling in a row, near the penalty spot, in front of the small penalty area line, were Fernandinho and Jesus.

Beside and in front of them are full of red figures.

De Gea's eyes kept switching between De Bruyne and the Manchester City players in front of the goal.

The corner kick was issued, and just after flying into the penalty area in the air, De Gea judged that it was a penalty kick towards the middle.

Want to take advantage of crowds?

De Gea moved while judging where the ball fell, and constantly rotated between the ball and the Manchester City players in the middle.

Smalling and Ye Tian have already suppressed the opponent's high point, Sane.

Poor Manchester City, except for Kompany, who is 190cm tall, and Ederson, who is 188cm tall, everyone else is under 185cm, and one of these two people did not come to the Manchester United penalty area because of their age and the other because of their position. Now, Manchester City is attacking The highest point is the 183CM Sane.

Another 183cm Otamendi is running forward.

Do you want others to make balls for him?Or come to grab some points in front of the door?
Out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of Otamendi in an offside position, and De Gea automatically dismissed the threat.

As the ball begins to arc through the air, its trajectory becomes clear.

De Gea still judged that the ball fell in the middle of the crowd, and there, the opponent could not get the ball!
Rojo.

At this moment, I don't know what he was thinking, but he didn't pay attention to the ball hitting him, but paid attention to his opponent's running position.

The ball hits his head and then, bounces, towards the goal.

De Gea cursed in his heart.

Otamendi!Otamendi, who originally thought he was in an offside position, is not offside at the moment!
In the small penalty area, Otamendi, who was trying his best, went to the goal to wait for the chaos to pick up the leak. Now, it has become the most important end of the main attack.

The point is, there is no opponent by his side!

Turn sideways, turn around, swing your left leg!
too close!De Gea can't react effectively at all!
He can predict the goal, but years of training have prevented him from saving it before his opponent kicks!
This ball may not have been trained by the goalkeeper, so he threw himself directly, so he can block it!

De Gea's reflex nerves have been adjusted through strict training and cannot make this action.

So, the ball grazed his arm in standard save action and entered the goal.

Another 0 seal, gone.

Otamendi lifted his clothes over his head and ran along the sidelines to vent his anger!
Guardiola also jumped up excitedly on the sidelines, clenched his fists and made an air strike, and in an instant, his bones were not so cold.

A goal is a goal!Although luck is more involved, perhaps this also shows that today, the goddess of victory is not on your side!
At halftime, Manchester United 2-1 Manchester City.

　Dichlorvos: If you can get pleasure from wasting time, it's not wasting time.
