Jagged Wings

Chapter 37 Goalkeepers and Forwards

Taking advantage of a dead ball, Reyes ran over and grabbed Xiaofa: "I think Carroll is definitely their weakest point."

"But he is a goalkeeper, he is too far away from us." Xiaofa said, in his impression, if Arsenal had more chances, maybe they could create some chances for Carroll.But now the whole team is passively defending, what can they do?

"No need to do this, we can use a more direct method..." Reyes expressed his thoughts.

Fonny sneaked over to try to eavesdrop, but Reyes and Fanny were communicating in Spanish at all.Fanny rolled his eyes, pouted and ran away.

Cut, don't let me listen, I don't like to listen.

After finding out the reality of the opponent, Manchester United no longer conservative, and began to send heavy troops to press, Ronaldo, Rooney and Ruud van Nistelrooy frequently threatened Lehmann's goal.

Arsenal's defense is undergoing a severe test!

This time it was Rooney. Rooney pulled to the wing and forced the ball under the defense of Ashley Cole. Toure beat Ruud van Nistelrooy to take off and pushed the ball over the touchline. Manchester United won a corner kick.

Reyes motioned towards Xiaofa, and he quietly exited the penalty area and ran to the front field.Xiaofa also ran to the top of the arc, posing to prevent the opponent's long-range shots.No one at Manchester United paid attention to the actions of the two. Everyone crowded in the penalty area, waiting for this corner kick.

At this time, the entire Arsenal team returned to the backcourt to defend except Reyes and Van Persie in the frontcourt.

Ronaldo took a corner kick and the football was pushed out of the penalty area by Senderos.

Looking back at this scene, Reyes, who had already run to the midfield position, suddenly exerted his strength and ran forward at full speed.

Xiaofa got the ball, he didn't take it too much, because Keane on one side had already rushed up viciously.Xiaofa had a big foot, and instead of looking for Reyes who was running at high speed, he passed it to Van Persie.

Van Persie leaned on Ferdinand to take off, but how could Ferdinand, who has an advantage in height and experience, be so easy to deal with?He stuck firmly in place, preventing Van Persie from taking off.Now Manchester United has only two defenders and a goalkeeper in the backcourt, and any chance of the opponent must be snuffed out.

Carroll saw the football floating high and far away, while Van Persie and Ferdinand both looked up at the ball and backed away to find the landing point. Both of them had already stood near the penalty area line.

"It's up to me, I'm going to make a wonderful save that will leave you stunned!" Carol quietly abandoned the door and attacked while the two were not paying attention.He planned to jump up from behind the two of them and hit the ball flying. Anyway, there was a Sylvester protecting him on the other side, and there were no other players nearby.

The football arrived and Ferdinand headed it.Because there was only the goalkeeper behind him, and he didn't see Carroll's attack, so he pushed the ball forward.

Anyway, Sylvester is the only one around, can't he be there?
However, the football slowly drew an arc in the air, and after rolling a few times on the ground, a red figure appeared in front of the football.

It's Reyes!

"Damn it, how did he appear, stop him!" Ferdinand seemed to be saying to himself, but also seemed to blame Sylvester.When he took off just now, he clearly noticed that Arsenal's people were all in the backcourt, why did he appear in the blink of an eye?

But now is not the time to think about the mess, the enemy has got the ball.As the backbone of the defense, Ferdinand knew that it would be terrible to let the opponent's speed player take the ball and go one-on-one with him, so he hurriedly called his teammates for help.

But after getting the ball, Reyes didn't rush forward as he thought. He didn't stop at all, and rubbed the ball lightly on the inside of his left foot.

lob!

Ferdinand looked at the ball and just wanted to laugh: This lob is not only useful when the goalkeeper is attacking, our goalkeeper...

Thinking of this, Ferdinand suddenly thought of it, and suddenly turned around.

Carol foolishly stood three meters behind him, raised his hand in a save pose, foolishly watched the football drifting in the air...

Carroll knew it was going to be bad, turned around and ran back while watching the ball.But as soon as he turned around, his left foot knocked on his right foot, and then his feet were mixed with garlic and fell like a dog gnawing shit.

Carol didn't raise his head again, knowing the result.Because of the huge cheers from the stadium, and the crazy shouting of the DJ on site.

There is no doubt that the goal has been scored!

Carol buried her head deeply in the grass, clawing at the grass desperately, as if trying to suffocate herself.He must have wished in his heart that he was an ostrich, so that he could bury his head in the sand and not have to worry about the ridicule.

Ferguson looked at all this in disbelief the moment the football entered the goal, but he, who has always been marked by loud roaring on the sidelines, just muttered a few words this time and stopped talking.

Ferguson had already given up on Carol, so why talk so much when facing someone who has already been given up?
1:1
In the 18th minute of the first half, Arsenal relied on a missed goal by Reyes to dramatically equalize the score.

Although it seemed that this ball was obtained by "missing", Reyes knew that in fact this ball was inevitable by chance.When he realized Carol's weakness, he discussed with Xiaofa to find an opportunity to draw Carol out.Just like when Manchester United pressed heavily this time, Xiaofa's somewhat amateurish long pass was also deliberately done.

Of course, they were not entirely sure that Carol would attack. Their initial idea was to do this a few more times, and sooner or later, Carol would be fooled once.

Unexpectedly, Carroll was so easily fooled when he tried this tactic for the first time.

Carol lay on the ground regretting, and no one of his teammates came to comfort him.Ferdinand looked at Carol with some annoyance: he is not afraid of opponents like gods, but teammates like pigs.

After kick-off again, Manchester United, who conceded a goal, launched a tidal attack towards the Arsenal penalty area. Manchester United, who sent a five-man midfielder, was obviously stronger than the three-man defense Arsenal midfielder.Manchester United used the number of midfielders to clamp down on the Arsenal team, and then used two wings to attack.

Ruud van Nistelrooy and Rooney made a switch, crossed to the right, forced a pass after Cole, and Scholes headed wide of the goal frame.

A few minutes later Manchester United came back again, this time it was a cross from Ronaldo after throwing Lauren away from the wing.Rooney jumped up in the middle and intentionally missed the ball, and Ruud van Nistelrooy, who was unmarked at the back post, pushed and kicked directly into Lehmann's arms.

"Good pass!" Lehmann gave Fonny a thumbs up, and Fonny rolled his eyes again.

"Faunny was very active in this game, but his state and spirit are obviously not good. Does he miss Henry?"

Van Nistelrooy was indeed a little bit uninterested in this game. First of all, the conflict between him and Ronaldo in the team became increasingly intensified. The old man obviously favored Ronaldo, which made Van Nistelroo very unhappy.Another point is that Van Nistelrooy's biggest opponent, Henry, was not on the court, which made Van Nistelrooy a little uninterested.

Since the beginning of the new century, the Premier League has basically been a championship battle between Arsenal and Manchester United.Although Manchester United has won more championships than Arsenal, Henry has won the Premier League Golden Boot more times than Ruud van Nistelrooy.Therefore, people will give Henry the reputation of "the Premier League's top scorer".

This made Van Nistelrooy very unconvinced: I was affected by injuries, and I couldn't play for a season before I scored fewer goals. When I am healthy, I am stronger than Henry who is healthy!

It's a pity that Fonny, who wanted to justify his name, made a mistake: before, it was the healthy Henry who met the injured Fonny, and now it is the injured Henry who met the healthy Henry.

Sometimes fate is such a wonderful thing.

When Ruud van Nistelrooy missed the necessary goal, the on-site director was also very sensible and gave Henry three or four seconds of shots.Henry in the camera cannot see his expression, and people cannot capture emotions such as excitement or sadness from his face.

The competition between these two people has always been the main theme of the Premier League shooter competition in recent years, and the media has given them the most attention.

Ruud van Nistelrooy is no longer strong, and Manchester United's offensive focus has also changed. They are different from Arsenal. They have many offensive fulcrums, such as Rooney's right wing.

Manchester United's formation is very flexible. When defending, Ronaldo and Rooney retreated to become full-backs; while attacking, the two advanced forward and became left and right wingers, echoing Ruud van Nistelrooy in the middle.

Although Ruud van Nistelrooy is not strong enough, Arsenal's offense is still weak, Bergkamp is alone, and Van Persie is wasting this few opportunities...
