Chapter 153 The goalkeeper is equally good

Although Van der Sar was replaced by De Gea, Manchester United's gate is still very stable.

After joining Manchester United, De Gea quickly became the main goalkeeper, and continued to suppress Kuzzak, who was Manchester United's main goalkeeper last season, on the bench.

This is also normal. This Atletico Madrid youth training goalkeeper is tall, quick-responsive, and has top-level standards and strength. Sometimes a goalkeeper is good or not. You will know after watching a few games.

Soon after the start of the game, he proved his level by making consecutive saves.

Klein made a beautiful breakthrough on the wing, and then made a cross. The ball flew to the back point. Jones had some deviations in judging the landing point and failed to touch the ball. Ronaldo made a decisive move after grabbing the first point. Foot shot!

Faced with this close-range shot, De Gea sat down and blocked the ball with his legs. Jones immediately made a clearance.

Only 2 minutes later, Vidal gave it to William, and William's cross was also very strange. Vidic barely made a clearance and the ball fell to the front of the penalty area. Dembele, who went forward, followed up with a shot. A very high long-range shot, but the ball was thrown by De Gea flying!

Two consecutive threatening shots failed to score in the opening game, which caused the Southampton supporters to sigh, and they were soon clapped in anticipation of the next attack.

But Manchester United will not easily let Southampton just suppress it.

They quickly attacked.

Although Giggs plays in the middle in theory, he and Park Ji-sung are constantly changing positions. This is also a characteristic of Manchester United's midfield tactics. After changing positions to the left, he received Rooney's ball and passed beautifully. Klein's defense was passed and the ball was sent into the penalty area. Hernandez took the lead and shot a flying shot. Jenkinson's fill was a step slower, and the ball was about to fly into the goal. Navas made a beautiful side Throw, narrowly block the ball out of the bottom line!

"Wonderful save! Keylor Navas is not far behind! His save saved Southampton!"

Amid the commentator's shout, Kiya waved his fist on the coach's bench.

Since the beginning of this season, Southampton has conceded a lot of goals, but Navas's performance is getting better and better-his reaction and his wingspan have begun to show more and more top-level standards.

This Costa Rica national team, which can be said to have almost no reputation, has gradually proved its own level in the Premier League.

Although Southampton still concedes a lot of goals, it is related to their open offensive tactics. In fact, Navas can make more than five effective saves per game on average, which is already an astonishing number.

With Southampton always showing gaps, Navas' saves are the guarantee of Southampton's results.

The two forwards of Manchester United are more dexterous, and Navas will inevitably suffer more tests in this game.

Ji Ya waved his fist. He has never underestimated Navas' ability. Since the Costa Rican came to Southampton, it is not a fluke that he quickly became the main force of Southampton. Although he is not very tall, However, his excellent wingspan, strong jumping ability, fast foot movement and accurate judgment make his height defect not a defect at all. No worse than those goalkeepers taller than 1.9 meters.

Had it not been for such a goalkeeper last season, it would have been almost impossible for Southampton to win the Europa League.

The game continued, and the two sides were constantly entangled in the midfield. Southampton now has a little advantage in the midfield. Compared with Manchester United's midfield, their offense and defense are still stronger overall. Ni is always free, Giggs is old, and Carrick and Park Ji-sung alone want to resist Southampton's running and confrontation, which is still a bit taken for granted.

After gradually gaining the advantage in the midfield, Southampton's offense also began to increase.

Their offensive methods themselves are very diverse. Although Klose is not on the field, Giroud's strength and height can well contain Ferdinand's attention.

In this way, Vidic was a little unable to react under the impact of Ronaldo.

Vidic is of course a top central defender, but he is actually flawed. His speed is slow and his turn is slow. When partnered with Ferdinand, Ferdinand's speed and reaction can make up for his shortcomings. The ability to position can make up for Ferdinand's being too brave and sometimes distracted-so the two of them are the best partner, and there will always be some problems if they are separated.

Ji Ya grasped this point and used the player's personal ability to separate the opponent's two central defenders.

It looks good now.

Ronaldo used his excellent foot skills to play Vidic around, and every time he could rely on a breakthrough to create a chance to shoot, but the next attack was always unable to pass De Gea.

Although Vidic was overwhelmed by Ronaldo in terms of reaction and agility, he is experienced and can always use his lateral movement to control Ronaldo in a safer place.

At a place relatively far from the goal, even if Ronaldo creates a space for shooting, it is difficult to directly threaten the goal guarded by De Gea.

Ronaldo had two shots in the next time, both of which were within the range of the goal frame, but De Gea flew to save the ball.

Manchester United's offense was continuously launched from the two wings, bypassing Southampton's relatively strong defense in the middle, and suppressing Klein's right.

The advantage of doing this is that Klein's defense is relatively poor, and secondly, it can suppress Klein's assists, thereby reducing his pressure.

Evra began to advance frequently for assists. He himself was a full-back with excellent assist ability and good physical fitness. In this way, Klein, who was still a little inexperienced, was suppressed by Evra.

However, when attacking from the wing, Manchester United also encountered a problem, that is how to break through Navas' defense...

It is also very difficult to hit Southampton's penalty area with an offense from the wing. Jenkinson has average experience, but he is energetic enough to run around to intercept and fight fires, and he does not rush out. With Wundt's replacement and assistance, they also kept Southampton's penalty area in a relatively safe place.

Rooney and Evra made two consecutive shots, which were also quickly saved by Navas.

Ferguson was chewing gum, and also looked at the field with some depression.

Both sides can attack well, but they are not enough to tear apart the opponent's line of defense. If this kind of game continues, it will be really troublesome...
