Zhigao Supreme: The Legend of Greenery

Chapter 268 The Crazy Red Devil 3
How to help the team out of the predicament?

Spalletti's only option was to attack.

But how to attack?
Mancini Jr., who performed well in the last game, has not had a few chances to break through this game so far, and even has very few chances to connect the ball. Once he catches the ball, he will face the siege of two to three players from his opponent.

Vucinic, who replaced Taddei, couldn't even hold the ball under Carrick's careful care, so what about attacking?As for the wolf king Totti, under the joint defense of Ferdinand and Brown, he couldn't even touch the football, so where did he get the shot?

The absence of Tonetto, Perotta and Taddei left Roma's midfield lacking speed, power and impact.

How can such a Roma break through Manchester United's defense?
The frowning Spalletti looked at the bench, and his frown became tighter.

Okaka, Fati, A-Rossi, Ferrari, Defenti and the injured Taddei and goalkeeper Kulci, Spalletti trusts these players on the field more than them.From the number of times they played in the league, it can be seen that, except for the central defender Ferrari, A-Rossi has the most starts in the league on the bench, only 5 times, and Fati 2 times , Defenti didn't even have 1 minute in the league.

Spalletti turned his head to look at the Manchester United bench and sighed.

Alan Smith, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Richardson, Fletcher, Evra are all players who are ready to fight.

Although the Roma team has been ranked second in the league this season, it has nothing to do with the title of a wealthy family, but it does not have the inside of a wealthy family.Compared with the real giants Manchester United, the disadvantages are undoubtedly revealed.

Bench thickness.

A wealthy team must have the lineup and strength to fight on two fronts.

Obviously this is not available in Rome.

Pizarro, the core midfielder of their current team, is still half of the ownership they bought from Inter Milan last summer for 600 million euros.

But Manchester United is different. This season, the first-team personnel once injured seven or eight people, but they still maintain a high level of competitiveness on all fronts. The Premier League ranks first, the FA Cup advances to the top four, and the Champions League advances to the eight powerful.Now they are giving them a head-on blow, and the semi-finals may just have to wait for the referee to blow the whistle to end the game.

But were the Romans so willing to accept defeat?

of course not!

When Spalletti looked at the field again, the Romans were organizing a new round of offense.

The 4-2 score pushed them to the edge of the cliff. They either gave up and jumped off the cliff directly, or fought back to find a chance.

The Romans chose the latter.

After cooperating with De Rossi in the midfield to dodge Yu Liang's press, Pizarro directly crossed to Mancini on the left.Although Mancini's continuous cycling failed to shake Neville away, it attracted Neville's defensive attention, and when he was not prepared, he distributed the ball to the side.Panucci, who came up with the assist, made a pass after getting off the bottom, and the football flew to the front of the penalty area with a strong external spin.After the assist, Mex completed a shot, and the ball missed the post against the turf.No one thought that when the offensive players in the frontcourt were seen as dead, the central defender actually advanced to the front of the penalty area to complete the shot.

Although Mex's shot failed to hit the goal frame, it boosted the morale of the Romans.

The Romans in adversity broke out with strong combat effectiveness, and the continuous attack threatened the gate of Manchester United. At this time, Manchester United's midfielder had problems.

In the 34th minute, Roma launched an attack.

Pizarro dribbled the ball in the middle, and Yu Liang immediately defended it.

This time Pizarro did not entangle with Yu Liang. When Yu Liang rushed towards him, he immediately passed the ball to De Rossi.

Halfway through the run, Yu Liang immediately turned around and rushed towards De Rossi. At this time, Carrick, who was behind Yu Liang, also rushed towards De Rossi, and handed over Vucinic to his teammates.

With his back facing the direction of the goal, Yu Liang didn't notice Carrick.

And Carrick rushed to De Rossi earlier than Yu Liang, so he thought that Yu Liang could see his movement.

In this case, the two rushed towards De Rossi at the same time.

This resulted in a gap behind them.

De Rossi passed the ball from the joint between Carrick and Yu Liang. After receiving the ball, Pizarro pierced through Manchester United's defense. Totti accelerated to get rid of Brown and completed a round. Foot shot, wide of the post.

Watching the ball rub against the post and fly out of the baseline, Yu Liang let out a breath, then glanced at Carrick.

At the same time, Carrick also glanced at Yu Liang, and there seemed to be a trace of complaint in his eyes.

Yu Liang looked at Carrick's complaining eyes, but ignored it, and immediately threw himself into the game.

Ferguson, who was sitting on the bench, immediately frowned when he saw Yu Liang and Carrick rushing towards De Rossi at the same time.

But he didn't make any adjustments.

The game continued, and Roma's offense made a comeback.

When rushing towards Pizarro this time, Yu Liang made a gesture to Carrick.He hoped that Carrick would complete his task.

Although Ferguson adjusted his tactics before, he did not make adjustments when defending Rome, which means that Carrick's main task is to mark Vucinic.

Through the attack just now, Pizarro seemed to know that there was a problem of tacit understanding between Yu Liang and Carrick.

So when he saw Yu Liang rushing towards him again, Pizarro made a move to pass the ball to De Rossi, cheated Yu Liang's center of gravity, and sped over.

However, he was not able to completely get rid of Yu Liang. At this time, Yu Liang was still closely following him and interfering with him.

But the moment he got rid of Yu Liang, Carrick rushed towards him.

In order to successfully attract Carrick and Yu Liang's defense, Pizarro slowed down his speed. When Carrick rushed up, he dunked the ball backwards. The ball was given to Panucci on the wing. After taking a step horizontally, Panucci passed the ball to Panucci at the front of the penalty area.

This is the first time Panucci has had the ball unguarded in this game.

After a little adjustment at the front of the penalty area, he finished the shot before Ferdinand's defense was in place.

The fast-flying football rushed to the far corner of the goal. Van der Sar kicked his feet in front of the goal and stretched his arms lightly, blocking the ball outside the goal line.Gary Neville who rushed over immediately cleared the ball out of the baseline.

The Romans get a corner kick.

Both Chivu and Mex rushed to Manchester United's penalty area to compete for the top, but Totti's corner kick was taken off by Van der Sar who attacked.

After getting the ball, Van der Sar drove directly to the midfield, found Giggs, and set off a counterattack from Manchester United.

At this time, the Roma team's backcourt was empty, so Panucci and De Rossi who stayed in the backcourt could only hope to freeze Manchester United's counterattack in the midfield, so they focused on Giggs who dribbled the ball.

One person dragged behind, and the other stepped forward to force him.

As long as they can pinch Giggs, they will be able to freeze Manchester United's counterattack.

But De Rossi didn't succeed. Before he went up to grab it, Giggs passed the ball diagonally from the outside of his instep to the right.

C Luo, who was plugged in at high speed, got the ball, and directly kicked into the net at the front of the penalty area, 4-0.

"C Ronaldo, Ronaldo scored the fourth goal of the game, which is really beautiful. The total score is 5-2. Manchester United has already locked in the semi-finals in advance. Manchester United played really well in this game. Crazy! Although the Romans repeatedly emphasized before the game that the goal is to advance, but now it seems that they are not fully prepared!"
