Zhigao Supreme: The Legend of Greenery

Chapter 230 The Different Yu Liang
Under the night sky, London is brightly lit, and it is a bright pearl on the banks of the Thames River, quietly blooming its splendor.

The Emirates Stadium in the Holloway area of ​​North London (I said it was at Highbury Stadium in the previous article, I made a mistake, correct it here) stands quietly beside the railway, in the drizzle, the strong lights illuminate the entire perimeter of the stadium translucent.

It was like daytime in the stadium, the stands were densely packed with people, all of them were red at a glance.

They raised their hands high and stood on the stands singing thick songs.

The captains of both sides are picking sides.

Yu Liang, located near the middle circle, kept stretching his legs, making the final preparations for the competition.Wet hair was stuck to his forehead, and a pair of embarrassing eyes were fixed on the No. 4 player in the opposite half.

"I will definitely defeat you!"

The game soon started at the referee's whistle, and Gary Neville won the kick-off for Manchester United.

Immediately after the opening, Manchester United launched a fierce offensive.

They hope to score goals as soon as possible to ensure their advantage in such a focused game.

Although Arsenal's performance this season is not as good as expected, their defense at home is still very stable, and they will also launch a counterattack while defending solidly.Similarly, they also hope to take the lead in gaining an advantage in such an important game.

Perhaps both sides valued such a game too much, so after the start of the game, the players on both sides played tighter, so that neither side could organize a decent offense in the first 15 minutes.The only three shots on goal from both sides were all hit by anti-aircraft guns.

"Oh God, is this still the same Arsenal team? Has their manager changed to Mourinho?"

The boring game made Andy Gray couldn't help complaining.

Arsenal, who are good at offense, actually played a defensive counterattack at home, which indeed exceeded many people's expectations.But the subsequent attack showed Arsenal's true colors.After a series of quick passes and transfers, they quickly tore through Manchester United's defense.Fabregas holds the ball on the right side of the frontcourt penalty area, and Adebayor and Henry in the middle are both running.Suddenly Henry retreated, throwing away Ferdinand who was following him.Fabregas saw Henry running out of space, and immediately raised his right foot to pass the ball. However, at this moment, Yu Liang rushed in front of Fabregas, and a sliding tackle broke the ball out of the baseline.

"Wow, Wenger sat on the sidelines again! Arsenal moved really fast, and they were able to complete the change of head coach in a short period of time! But Yu's defense this time is really good, but shouldn't this be a throw-in kick?" ?”

After the referee blew his whistle, a free kick was awarded instead of a sideline kick.

"Damn!"

Yu Liang thought his defense was clean and neat, but he didn't expect to give the opponent a free kick from the right.This position is very close to the goal and poses a great threat.Yu Liang wanted to talk to the referee, but Neville stopped him halfway, "Go back and defend!"

Gary Neville then went to the referee to explain what happened just now.He cannot change the referee's penalty, but his words will affect the referee's next penalty.

Arsenal's free kick goes to Thierry Henry.

Henry directly lobbed the ball to the rear of the penalty area. Swiss defender Senderos shook his head 15 meters in front of the goal, but because of lack of strength, it was directly confiscated by Van der Sar.

As the game time passed, Arsenal, who were playing at home, gradually grasped the rhythm of the game. After losing control of the rhythm of the game, Manchester United directly retreated to the second half and played a defensive counterattack.Facing the defending Manchester United, Arsenal organized attacks again and again, but none of them were able to break through the gate of Van der Sar's handle.

……

Yu Liang steals the ball from Cesc Fabregas in the midfield, and then immediately distributes it to Evra who is plugging in from the wing.After Evra dribbled the ball past Rosicky, he passed it directly to Giggs. After Giggs changed directions continuously in the frontcourt to attract the defense, he crossed to Rooney in the middle.Rooney dribbled the ball to the right, dodged a little space and shot directly.Rooney, who has not scored in many consecutive rounds, has a very high-quality shot. Lehmann took a lot of effort to lift the ball over the crossbar.

Lehman's technique in the goal is excellent, but because of his tall stature, his reaction is not particularly quick, so he is rarely able to make amazing saves.But the save this time did amaze many people. The Arsenal fans in the stands immediately applauded and cheered for Lehmann's save.

Wayne Rooney's shot gave Manchester United a right corner.

Giggs stood in the corner area and waited until the referee blew his whistle, and immediately took a corner kick. After bypassing Arsenal's front point defense, the ball flew directly to the middle.Just as Toure rushed to the football to clear the header, a figure flashed in front of him, headed towards the ball and directly hit the goal, and the ball flew directly towards the lower right corner of the goal.

"Wow, Lehmann, Lehmann saved Arsenal again!"

The tall Lehmann, once again saved Larson's header with a quick reaction.

"Damn!"

Ferguson, who was standing on the sidelines preparing to celebrate the goal, watched Lehmann throw the ball on the goal line, and cursed inwardly in disbelief, then retracted his outstretched fists and put them in his pockets.

The referee then blew the whistle for the end of the first half, and the battle between the two sides became 0-0.

In the first half, Manchester United had very few offensive opportunities. The only two threatening shots were made by Larsson.The first time was in the 23rd minute of the first half, Rooney assisted on the left side, and Larsson made a low shot from a small angle on the left side of the penalty area, which was also saved by Lehmann.The second time is the header just now.

Although he didn't score a goal in the first half, Ferguson was quite satisfied with the process of the game. At least they successfully limited Arsenal's offense.

"Yu, you're doing well!"

Ferguson, who was in a good mood, praised every player during the intermission, especially Yu Liang.

Before the game, he told Yu Liang that he hoped that Yu Liang could focus on defense.

And Yu Liang did the same.

He's going to give players like that a chance if they're just playing on the pitch as he asks.

But if you want to be reused, it is not enough to just play according to his requirements, you have to show a side that he appreciates.

In the first half of today, Yu Liang did it.

Ferguson felt that Yu Liang had changed. Of course, this refers to his playing style.

Although Yu Liang's overall performance was not bad before, whether in defense or offense, Yu Liang's handling of the ball at certain moments seemed unreasonable. Perfect.

But today is different.

Today's Yu Liang's defensive actions in the game are more clean and neat.Especially after stealing the ball, it is more reasonable to divide the ball. Instead of pursuing perfection, choose to play the ball quickly and easily.

Such a choice may seem very simple, but the effect is not the same.It can not only avoid being counter-robbed by the opponent in the midfield, but also give the opponent a chance to counterattack, and the person who gets the ball can quickly organize the attack.

This is the kind of Yu Liang he needs.

But it is a pity that there is less contact between him and Scholes today, otherwise the counterattack will be more powerful. "Paul, when Yu is defending in the second half, get close to him, and after he forms a steal, organize a counterattack immediately!"
