Zhigao Supreme: The Legend of Greenery

Chapter 208 Fighting the Blue Army 7
Yu Liang got up and walked to the foul spot to set up the ball.

With a distance of more than 40 meters from the goal, Yu Liang has no ability to hit the goal directly, so he can only pass the ball into the penalty area, find his teammates, and assist his teammates to complete the goal.

So when Yu Liang stood at the foul spot, Ferdinand and Vidic also ran from the backcourt to Chelsea's penalty area to compete for the top.

Yu Liang straightened his waist, glanced at the intertwined players from both sides in the penalty area, and took a deep breath.Then raised his right hand, first made a fist, and then stretched out two fingers.

After seeing Yu Liang's gesture, the Manchester United players, who were still relatively scattered, immediately swarmed towards one place.This made the already narrow space even more crowded. The players on both sides stood in front of the penalty area with their arms crossed and kept pushing and shoving, so that Weber had to blow his whistle to separate the players from both sides.

But after Webber left, players from both sides were still pulling and shoving together.

But this time Weber didn't blow his whistle to intervene. After separating the players from both sides and giving a verbal warning, Weber walked to the side and blew his whistle directly, indicating that Yu Liang could take a free kick.

After the whistle sounded, Yu Liang started a run-up, and at the same time the players on both sides at the front of the penalty area began to run.The gathered Manchester United players moved towards the goal in a swarm, and even the Chelsea players who defended them also moved towards the goal.

Since they are all standing on the far side of the goal, they will not block the sight of their goalkeeper Cudicini.But it interfered with Cudicini's judgment.

When Yu Liang swung his right foot to pass the ball, a red figure ran out from the crowd towards the near corner of the goal.But the movement of the Manchester United player did not attract the attention of the Chelsea players.

Because the ball is indeed coming from the far corner.

Besides, there are also their players defending the near corner of the goal.

When the ball flew over the penalty area, they pushed and shoved each other to fight for the ball's landing point, hoping to complete the grab.

A figure in front of the crowd leaped high.

"Move forward, Rooney, Rooney grabbed the point..."

Rooney jumped up, leaned back, and then exerted strength in the midair, like a swinging hammer, swinging against the football header.

Cudicini in front of the goal has been paying attention to Manchester United's players. When Manchester United's player Saha moved towards the near corner, Cudicini hesitated whether to defend the near corner.But when he watched the football come towards the far corner, he decided to defend the far corner.

So when Rooney successfully competed for the top, Cudicini breathed a sigh of relief, because his judgment was right.When Rooney shook his head, Cudicini's tense nerves moved immediately, and he opened his hands to make a save.

However, the ball did not fly towards the goal, but flew directly to the near corner.

Shevchenko, who was defending at the near post, rushed over immediately, but at this time Saha was already ready, and lightly jumped to face the header of the football. When the football touched his forehead intimately, he immediately Changed the direction of flight.With a bang, he rushed directly into the near corner of the goal.

After the goal, the cheers in the Old Trafford stadium were earth-shattering.

Saha, who scored the goal, immediately ran to the south stand to cheer. This is his sixth goal in the league this season and his ninth goal in all competitions this season.

Many fans once worried about who could play the role of terminator after Ruud van Nistelrooy left.But now they don't seem to have to worry. The Frenchman's outburst has made them forget the dreaded king of the small restricted area.

The fans above the South Stand chanted Saha's name one after another.

After the departure of Ruud van Nistelrooy, the Frenchman was rejuvenated.

Played the best season of his Manchester United career.

Saha's goal helped Manchester United break the deadlock and gain an advantage on the field, but this goal did not extinguish Chelsea's ambitions, but instead aroused their lofty ambitions.Chelsea, who vowed to equalize the score, then uncharacteristically launched a massive attack.

Don't think that Mourinho's team will only defend and counterattack.

In fact, they do not lose to any team today in positional warfare.

Especially now this Chelsea team has even more offensive power.

As Chelsea attacked, two of their full-backs, Gremi and Ashley Cole, were pushed straight up the pitch.There are only two central defenders Terry, Carvalho and Makelele left in the backcourt. The defensive ability of the three of them is sufficient.Essien serves as a series task in the midfield. Of course, his abundant physical fitness is also a defensive barrier for Chelsea's midfield.

Central midfielders Lampard and Ballack were pushed directly to the frontcourt to organize the team's offense.At the same time, both of them have excellent long-range shooting ability, and they can also threaten Manchester United's gate.

Their forward pressure, plus strikers Drogba and Shevchenko, plus two full-backs who assisted and never returned, made the number of attackers in the frontcourt reach six.

Chelsea stepped up their offense and put a lot of pressure on Manchester United's defense.

Especially Fletcher and Yu Liang in the midfield are under even greater pressure.

Although Yu Liang's judgment ability and sense of position are particularly good, his weak confrontation ability makes him look very embarrassed when defending Chelsea players.

In the 34th minute, Yu Liang saw through Chelsea's passing intention through judgment and formed an interception.But before Yu Liang could organize a counterattack, he was entangled by Lampard.

Holding Lampard on his back, Yu Liang felt the pressure behind him.

Although he tried his best to control the ball under his feet, he still lost control of the ball under the interference of Lampard's stretched foot.Just when Yu Liang was about to speed up to catch up with the ball and tried to regain control of the ball, a huge pressure came from the side, knocking Yu Liang away directly.

Yu Liang, who was knocked away, saw Lampard rushing from behind him. After catching up with the football, he directly sent a long pass and sent the ball behind Ferdinand and Vidic.Shevchenko, who succeeded in anti-offside, volleyed with his left foot directly in front of the penalty area.

Yu Liang lay on the ground and patted the turf helplessly. This was the first time he was knocked down after confrontation in this field, and he couldn't remember clearly.Fortunately, so far the team has not been scored because of his mistakes.

However, Yu Liang was very dissatisfied with his performance.

He doesn't understand, why?
Compared with last year, my body has become much stronger.

But his ability to fight has not improved much.

"Do you want to change?"

Queiroz frowned and asked Ferguson beside him.

He was very dissatisfied with the adjustment made by Ferguson who insisted on arranging Yu Liang to start.Playing against a team like Chelsea is a tough battle, especially their playing style is very tenacious, with Yu Liang's ability to fight, it is impossible to complete the game.

Judging from the 35 minutes of the game in the first half, Queiroz was right.

At least in a one-on-one confrontation with opposing players, it is difficult to win.

Listening to Queiroz's words, Ferguson frowned.

"Substitution? Whom? Yu Liang?"

　When I was coding last night, I suddenly saw the news that Duncan had retired!

　　My heart skipped a beat!
　　Think about Kobe Bryant's retirement, and now Duncan has also retired.Feeling old all of a sudden...
