Super Coach

The weather in the UK is always like this, a sudden burst of rain, only to quickly return to the trademark haze.

The air was very humid, as if it was filled with the passion and heat of tens of thousands of fans at Old Trafford. They were all sitting in the stands, holding flags high, pulling out banners one after another, and shouting for a while The formation’s slogans and chants were sung.

This is what England fans are like!

After all, Yang Cheng has coached Liverpool. Although everyone knows that he has a very close relationship with Ferguson, there is no guarantee that no one will want to cause trouble because of this. Therefore, the fans on both sides are very clear. Real Madrid and neutral fans are together, and Manchester United The fans are on the other side, and the two sides are clearly divided.

“It’s rare to see Old Trafford so busy!”

In recent years, even Ferguson has frequently criticized the fact that the Old Trafford stands are becoming more and more gentlemanly. There are only a few games and a few opponents that can make the Red Devils of Manchester United feel excited and harmonious. tremble.

There is no doubt that Yang Shi is one of them!

Sienna, Miller was sitting in the stands. She sat in the square of Real Madrid fans and was welcomed by the Real Madrid fans.

However, when the Manchester United fans let out bursts of cheers, the Real Madrid fans immediately ignored everything and started shouting too. Although their shouts were so weak in front of the owners of Old Trafford, they could They did it without hesitation because it represented their support.

The two teams walked out of the tunnel and we can see the starting lineups of both sides!

Manchester United's starting goalkeeper at home is Edwin van der Sar, the defense is Evra, Brown, Ferdinand and O'Shea, the three midfielders are Fletcher, Anderson and Scholes, and the front three is It's Tevez, Rooney and Park Ji-sung.

“Real Madrid’s starting goalkeeper in the away game is Casillas, the defense is Marcelo, Thiago Silva, Ramos and Maicon, and the double midfielders are Xavi, Alonso and Maschera. No, the forwards are Ronaldinho, Kaka and David Silva, and the lone forward is Villa!

Both sides played with their strongest lineups, and no one held anything back. After all, this game was crucial. Yang Cheng also repeatedly stated before the game that he wanted to kill him at Old Trafford. Ferguson must stick to his offensive football tactics and must completely destroy Manchester United.

But Ferguson also said that he would not give Real Madrid any chance, and many people have some objections to Yang Cheng's offensive tactics, especially in the past two seasons, Mourinho's Chelsea have always been able to use iron and steel. Barrel-like defense,

Freezing Real Madrid's offense and knocking Real Madrid out of the competition has always caused Yang Cheng to insist on his own football philosophy in the Champions League, which has always been greatly questioned.

But as Mourinho once said, this is a world where only paranoia can survive. Whether it is Real Madrid or Chelsea, it is because of their extreme paranoia that they can have the strong combat effectiveness they have today.

The game is about to start!

There's something!

When Yang Cheng and Ferguson chatted for a few words in the players' tunnel and walked to the visiting team's coaching bench, Benitez came up to him with a smile, nodded towards Yang Cheng and said.

Yang Cheng was also laughing, because after he saw Manchester United's starting lineup, he knew that Ferguson gave up the wing.

Over the years, although Manchester United has won a Champions League and is indeed very strong, as the veterans in the team age and new players are unable to take over, Manchester United has encountered connection problems in its replacement. In terms of defense, Ferguson has always been unwilling to make big signings in the defense. This is an old problem.

Fletcher and Anderson in the midfield are responsible for interception and support. Scholes is Manchester United's midfield commander. Tevez, Rooney and Park Ji-sung are in front. Except for Park Ji-sung, there are no regular wide players. In fact, Park Ji-sung's wing ability is nothing compared to Real Madrid. Ferguson values ​​his diligence and defensive ability more.

If you really want to attack from the wing, Ashley, Young, Nani, and even Giggs will be more suitable.

Yang Cheng walked to the sidelines and made a gesture towards the Real Madrid players who were already lined up and waiting for the game to kick off, especially Alonso, Thiago, Silva and Casillas. Let them know their thoughts.

The boss's gesture, hold it steady after the start!

This consensus quickly spread among the players, and everyone immediately understood what Yang Cheng was thinking.

But what I didn't expect was that Manchester United gave Real Madrid a heads-up from the beginning!

In all football matches, the beginning is very important.

Almost all head coaches will focus on telling their players how to play at the beginning, whether to press forward and attack, or to stabilize the defense first and then slowly apply pressure. These all need to be instilled by the head coach.

Just like Barcelona, ​​they used to give the ball to Ronaldinho at the beginning and create threats through the movement of the Brazilian and Eto'o. Now they are more likely to give the ball to their own back first. When the ball falls, first stabilize your possession of the ball, and then slowly look for a breakthrough.

The start of Manchester United's game was also carefully prepared and arranged.

After the ball was kicked out, it was knocked back quickly, but as soon as it reached the feet of Scholes, it was passed to Ferdinand, but Ferdinand quickly passed it back to Scholes who ran out of the gap, and the latter knocked it across to the left. Plug in Evra.

The French left back got the ball just as he was making a quick move. As soon as he got the ball, he was able to kick it forward. He dribbled the ball into Real Madrid's half and pressed forward.

As soon as he saw Evra pressing up, Tevez began to pull towards the center, seemingly to give up the left wing. Maicon also looked at Evra, but the Frenchman passed the ball to Tevez, and then The player was at the edge of the penalty area. As soon as he got the ball, he suddenly fired a powerful volley from a long distance.

This shot was powerful and powerful, and although it was shot at a right angle, it happened to pass between Ramos, Thiago and Silva, and it was very fast.

Fortunately, Casillas was in a good position, but when faced with the sudden shot, he was so strong that he could only block the ball for a while, but could not hold it, which caused the ball to hit him. After using his hands, he bounced back into the penalty area.

Rooney, who came in behind, had been waiting for a long time. Obviously, regardless of whether Tevez's long shot could create an opportunity, he would move forward. So when Casillas took off his hand, Rooney almost ran to the ball's landing point. at.

Danger!!! The on-site commentator only had time to shout out such a word. 【..Quality novel, real quality, good novel! 】

But just when Rooney was about to kick the ball into the almost undefended Real Madrid goal, Thiago and Silva, who were always protecting the goal in the penalty area, jumped out from the side and grabbed the ball before Rooney. It was poked away, but his right calf also received a solid kick from Rooney, and he fell down and rolled in the penalty area in pain.

Oh my God! The on-site commentators were startled by Manchester United's sudden attack. It's so surprising. If it weren't for Thiago, Silva would have guarded the last hurdle steadily, and Rooney's shot would have been 100% sure. It's a pity that Manchester United missed a must-goal opportunity, Thiago and Silva's performance was outstanding!

Real Madrid's team doctor is on the field to check the situation. I hope he will not be injured!

Judging from the slow-motion replay, his rescue is a danger in itself. Rooney has already started to use his foot, and it is difficult to hold it back. If he takes a step at this time, he may even break his leg. .”

Rooney's shot was so powerful that it was so strong that he might have broken his leg.

Yang Cheng is also paying close attention to it on the sidelines, because Thiago Silva is the core of Real Madrid's defense and can be said to be the anchor of the sea. With him, Real Madrid's defense will be more stable. Otherwise, whether it is Ramos or Pepe, or Whether it's Kompany or not, there's no way to reassure anyone.

Fortunately, Chris Mitt quickly gave him reassurance that it was okay!

Although nothing happened, Thiago and Silva still had to go to the sidelines to receive temporary treatment. After all, they received such a kick and were so painful that they were sweating all over. To say it was not serious would be a lie.

Yang Cheng walked over and patted Thiago Salva's head encouragingly, sitting on the grass, without saying anything.

In fact, he wanted to say that there was no need to take such a risk. When he came to Old Trafford, he expected that Manchester United would score. If he lost a core defender because of this goal, He would rather lose this game.

Because he lost this game, he could still reverse the situation when he returned to the Bernabeu, but if he lost a defensive core, there would be no one to replace him.

But obviously, he can't say that, because he can't undermine the morale and fighting spirit of the players. He must stand on the side of the players and always provide them with support and encouragement, so that they can focus on the game without any distractions.

While Thiago and Silva were receiving treatment for more than a minute, Manchester United continued to launch a fierce attack on Real Madrid's defense, missing one person, Mascherano retreated to the defense, Kaká and The players in the frontcourt also actively retreated to participate in the defense. After all, the impact of missing one player must be made up by the whole team.

Thiago! Yang Cheng was analyzing the situation in his mind, but wanted to make adjustments after Thiago Salva came on the field. After you go up, let Marcelo and Maicondo go forward. We are going to Attack from the wing and suppress Manchester United!

Tell David, Silva and Cristiano to dribble past Evra and O'Shea more!

Thiago and Silva nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

After the hasty handling, Thiago Salva quickly asked the referee team to return to the court to play.

Manchester United's wingers in this game are mainly Tevez and Park Ji-sung, both offensive and defensive players, with a very tenacious style, but such players have no advantage in front of Real Madrid players.

Needless to say, Tevez has no advantage in speed or technique. Instead, he has an advantage in strength and confrontation. Park Ji-sung is famous for his flexibility and speed in the Premier League, but in front of Real Madrid, such an advantage does not exist at all.

In fact, Yang Cheng has been wondering whether the purpose of Ferguson's arrangement of this starting lineup is just to suppress Real Madrid's defense in the frontcourt and launch a crazy counterattack on the spot?

Because Tevez, Rooney, and Park Ji-sung are all players of this type, plus Anderson and Fletcher in the midfield, and then use Scholes to be responsible for ball control and passing dispatch, hoping to be able to pass the ball in the midfield. The pressing suppressed Real Madrid's back attack.

Therefore, in the past period of time, you can often see a scene where Manchester United players chase Real Madrid players and scramble from the frontcourt to the midfield and then to the backcourt. Manchester United players have physical and mental abilities. Advantage, they just want to use this advantage to suppress Real Madrid.

The instructions given by Yang Cheng before the start were to be stable, to establish a firm foothold first, and then slowly push the defense up. Just like in the game against Bayern Munich, I slowly control the initiative of the game, and then you are finished. !

Real Madrid's offensive strategy is actually like a galactic battleship. I slowly close the distance with the target. Once my double midfielder and defense line are in place, I will be within shooting range. At that time, the shell will enter the chamber. , Xiaoxiao, Luo, Kaka, Villa and David Sailva began to point out the direction and target of the attack.

The rest is simple, the shells will be sent one after another, completely smashing Manchester United's defense to pieces!

Ferguson was playing at home in this game. He was unwilling to adopt a defensive posture like Mourinho. He was still thinking about how to prevent Real Madrid's defense and double midfielders from advancing forward, so he gave The way to deal with it is to press madly in the midfield and frontcourt. In this case, Berbatov, Ashley Yo and Nani are of no use.

Theoretically, as long as Real Madrid's defense and Haxian Alonso can be forced not to appear in the Manchester United half, then Real Madrid's offensive threat will be weakened to a minimum, so Ferguson's approach is theoretically effective.

But in fact, after Thiago Silva came on the field, Real Madrid has also adapted to Manchester United's frontcourt pressing. The two full-backs began to consciously move forward, and Real Madrid's ball advancement moved to the wing.

First, after Marcelo advanced with the ball on the left, he was interfered by Fletcher, but passed the ball to Ronaldinho.

As a former Liverpool star, Ronaldinho has a very deep grudge with Manchester United. He also knows very well how to deal with Manchester United players, so Yang Cheng asked him to break through with the ball. As soon as he got the ball, he immediately threw away O'Shea. A beautiful wing breakthrough was formed on the left, but when the ball was passed, the ball was cleared by Ferdinand.

Although he failed to create a threat, Yang Cheng still applauded and affirmed Ronaldinho's breakthrough from the wing.

Just a minute later, Ronaldinho broke through with the ball from the left again. After attracting the defensive attention of O'Shea and Fletcher, he passed the ball to Villa who retreated outside the penalty area. The Spanish forward As soon as he got the ball, he cooperated with Kaka. The Brazilian's kick from the front of the penalty area was resolved by Van der Sar.

This was also Real Madrid's first shot of the game, appearing in the first minute.

Two consecutive breakthroughs posed a certain threat, and Manchester United's defense had to make certain adjustments. After all, Real Madrid has such a group of superstars with strong personal abilities. Even though the first two attacks did not pose much of a threat, as long as they are given a chance, They can completely destroy you anytime, anywhere.

But as soon as Real Madrid saw that the left wing was not working, they immediately moved to the right wing.

David and Silva had two consecutive breakthrough opportunities on the right, but they were both destroyed by Evra in one-on-one situations. Once they won a throw-in, and once they counterattacked after being intercepted.

We must make both of our wings come alive! Yang Cheng said solemnly.

This is the battle of wits between him and Ferguson. In the current situation, Manchester United has deployed heavy troops in the midfield and uses all means to prevent Real Madrid from moving the defense forward. If the wing cannot be played, Real Madrid's offense will be completely restricted.

That old guy also has two brushes! He smiled.

Ronaldinho is dealing with O'Shea. O'Shea can't beat the Portuguese one-on-one. It's not a big problem. But Evra defends David and Silva. The Spaniard suffers a lot because Evra is also that kind of quick. A smart player, David Silva has an advantage in one-on-one defense, and Evra's one-on-one defense ability is really strong.

Yang Cheng thought of this and immediately walked to the sidelines and made a steady gesture towards Marcelo, but he let Maicondo move forward to help David and Silva. At the same time, he let Guard, Silvado moves closer to the center, takes a diagonal line, and once Evra loses his position, insert him behind him!

After another adjustment by Yang Cheng, Real Madrid's offense on both sides began to improve greatly.

The left wing was under heavy pressure from Manchester United's defense, but on the right wing, Maicon dribbled the ball along the wing. At first he was not very fast, but as soon as he entered Manchester United's half and faced Anderson who was about to come over to intercept, he suddenly accelerated. He gained speed and pushed forward directly on the wing, and Anderson immediately followed suit.

Suddenly changing speed, when Evra saw David and Silva leaning towards the center, he hesitated and moved closer, hoping to complete a double-team on Maicon.

But as soon as he lost his position, David, who was already prepared, and Silva cut directly into the large gap behind him, and Maicon also immediately sent the ball forward along the wing.

David and Silva got the ball in the corner of the baseline. They turned around and saw Brown blocking it. Evra was also chasing. The Spaniard did not dare to hesitate because he knew very well that if he hesitated, he would be surrounded. , the ball must not be kept, so he dribbled the ball back.

This was a bit confusing to the defensive players, but he suddenly took the ball back, got rid of Brown, and immediately passed the ball to the center. Kaká had already ran over to respond as soon as he got the ball. Following Ferdinand's defense, he forced a breakthrough with the ball and forcefully brought the ball into Manchester United's penalty area. After being blocked by both Ferdinand and Van der Sar, he suddenly knocked the ball back.

Outside Manchester United's penalty area, Maicon, who had been ignored by the defensive players after passing the ball to David Silva, suddenly appeared outside Manchester United's penalty area at this moment. As soon as he got Kaká's return pass , immediately seized this golden opportunity, because in front of him, at least half of Manchester United's goal was undefended.

If he doesn't know how to hit the goal in this situation, then Maicon might as well go home and stop playing football!
