Chapter 1032: The Long Pass Is Deadly

After 20 minutes of play, the game was played in an open game, and Blackpool, who were in desperate need of a victory, pressed the whole field against Manchester United, but they did not create many chances on goal, but rather a calm and defensive Manchester United created a lot of killing chances.

Twenty minutes later, the tactical intentions and playing styles of both sides were clear.

Because Manchester United can win or draw this game, they have the initiative in the game, they have the right to choose tactics, they want to attack, they want to defend.

Blackpool, on the other hand, will have to score goals quickly if they want to win, and only after scoring can they focus on defence, after all, it is too dangerous to play against Manchester United and they can concede goals at any time.

Blackpool's idea is very good, but the gap between their strength and Manchester United is too big, and after Manchester United is familiar with their tactical play, they quickly find a way to deal with them, that is, to avoid Blackpool's pressing and interception in the middle, directly counterattack with long passes, and use the super individual ability of the frontcourt players to break through Blackpool's backline.

In the 28th minute of the game, Vidic successfully broke the ball and passed it to Scholes, who made a long pass directly to Rooney.

United's counter-attack went straight past the dense midfield and didn't give Blackpool a chance to come back at all.

Blackpool defender Odry was going to compete with Rooney for a header, and although Rooney was not tall enough, he used his strong body to jam the position, and Odryi just couldn't touch the ball.

Seeing that Rooney wanted to stop the ball with his chest, Odry was worried that Rooney would make the ball for Berbatov, but he couldn't grab Rooney's ball, so Oderi had to kick Rooney from behind.

The foul was so obvious that the referee didn't hesitate to award it and give United a free-kick.

Wayne Rooney tried to take a quick free-kick, but the Blackpool defender was experienced enough to block Rooney and keep him out.

Scholes came over to take a free-kick and it didn't pose much of a threat to Scholes' free-kick under Blackpool's tight defence, and the ball was headed over by a defender.

Then Blackpool continued to attack Manchester United, but under Manchester United's tight defense, Blackpool's ball was cut off by Gao Xiaodong as soon as it hit the edge of Manchester United's penalty area.

Manchester United continued their tactics of counterattacking with long passes, and Gao Xiaodong made a long pass to the front to find Berbatov.

Faster and more accurate than Rooney, Berbatov was able to spot the ball before a defender and flew to the ribs of the penalty area with his foot.

Rooney cut diagonally from the wing to the penalty area, the ball was neither high nor low, Rooney barely had to adjust, and directly volleyed the ball into the far corner of the goal with the instep.

Rooney's shot was so comfortable that the ball whizzed into the net like a cannonball, and goalkeeper Kierkes didn't even have time to make a save.

1:0

The referee pointed to the centre circle.

Manchester United's goal was scored with just three passes, and the counter-attack was so swift and sharp that Blackpool fans and players were stunned.

Manchester United fans reacted immediately when they saw Rooney's frantic celebration, and they jumped up in unison and shouted at Rooney's running arms: goalgoalgoal...... Wayne!Wayne......

In the VIP box, Glazer's eldest son Everram was more excited than his younger brother Joel, and he rushed outside the box to celebrate Rooney.

After Joel celebrated, he was not only worried when he saw his brother's excitement, because he obviously saw that Efram preferred Rooney and was prejudiced against Gao Xiaodong, and if his father handed over Manchester United to his brother to manage, it would probably be bad for Manchester United.

Joel is the only Manchester United hardcore in the Glazer family, and his love for Manchester United goes beyond the desire for Manchester United to make a profit for the family, he understands what Gao Xiaodong means to Manchester United, and does not want anyone to replace Gao Xiaodong in the core of Manchester United, even if this person is Wayne Rooney.

Ferguson ran out with his coaching staff to celebrate, and everyone had a relieved smile on their faces.

Although Blackpool's strength is far from Manchester United, football is not square after all, anything can happen, and even an old man like Alex Ferguson is inevitably a little apprehensive when betting on a game.

But after the goal, United were stable, and with Blackpool's quality, it was almost impossible to score two goals at Old Trafford and not let Manchester United score.

The on-site commentators also recognized this, and after Rooney's goal, they almost shouted that Manchester United were champions and that United were stable, in addition to chanting for a goal.

Blackpool manager Sam Allardyce looked very solemn after Wayne Rooney's goal, and he asked the assistant coach in a low voice, "What are the scores of the other games?"

The assistant coach said: "Birmingham and Wolves are also 1 goal down, Wigan Athletic and Stoke City are 0:0, as long as we win, we can be relegated, head, how should we play next?"

Allardyce glanced at the timer, with a resolute look on his face, and said, "First shrink the defense for ten minutes, and then attack." ”

The assistant coach asked why, Allardyce said: "They are ahead, we need to score two more goals to win, with Manchester United's old spiciness, definitely because we will attack out, we don't attack, let them attack, and when they feel that we have no confidence and give up the game, we will attack again." ”

The teaching assistant suddenly realized and said, "This is a surprise attack." ”

Allardyce bowed slightly, but did not speak, because no matter how good the tactical plan is, it still needs to be executed, and if the execution is not in place and there is no goal, it is a pipe dream.

After Manchester United scored, they felt that the game was solid, because it only took a draw for Manchester United to win the title, and they felt that Blackpool must be desperate for relegation, so they narrowed down their formation a little.

However, after Manchester United shrunk the formation, they found that Blackpool did not attack, and even the intensity of the press was a little less.

The Manchester United players were a little surprised and confused, what happened to Blackpool? No stamina or no confidence? It's only been 30 minutes since the game, and the stamina gauge can't be empty so quickly, probably no confidence.

If it was an away game, United might have been locked up with Blackpool, but it was at Old Trafford, with more than 70,000 United fans watching, and it was another title game, and the United players were not satisfied with the 1-0 scoreline, and they wanted to win the final game heartily.

So after 3 minutes of recycling, Manchester United attacked again, and used the opening set of Blackpool on Blackpool, who pressed and suppressed the whole field, did not dare to fall in the backfield, and could only keep kicking forward.

But even so, Blackpool made a lot of mistakes and gave United several chances to shoot, but it was only because Blackpool now shrunk, the large number of people in the backfield, and the big interference for Manchester United's attacking players to shoot, that United were not able to score a second goal.

It's a nice way to play and it's more conducive to scoring goals, but there's too much space at the back and there's risk, but at the moment the players and fans are relaxed and they believe they can keep scoring goals rather than conceding them.
