Chapter 854: Teasing Ivan

Manchester United followed the pre-match tactical arrangement, with Gao Xiaodong and Nani attacking Chelsea from two flanks.

Gao Xiaodong is facing Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic.

When Inter Milan, Inter Milan played against Chelsea in the Champions League knockout round, due to the absence of Ashley Cole, Chelsea's left-back was a huge shortcoming, Mourinho arranged Gao Xiaodong to play the right winger, and Gao Xiaodong beat Chelsea.

This time Ashley. Kerr is back, facing Ashley, who has the speed and the skill to turn quickly. Cole, Gao Xiaodong obviously didn't have much advantage playing right winger, so Ferguson let Nani contain Ashley on the right flank. Cole, let Gao Xiaodong pounce on Ivanovic on the left flank.

Serbian Ivanovic is 1.88 meters tall, he can play fullback or central defender, of course his ability is not bad, but with such a height, the turn will definitely not be too fast, Ferguson used Gao Xiaodong, who is 1.73 meters tall and full of strength, to deal with him, which can be regarded as the right medicine, and the threatening counterattack in 13 minutes is Gao Xiaodong's cross that is completed by Ivanovich.

After a success, Manchester United tasted the sweetness, and soon Scholes passed a ball behind Gao Xiaodong, allowing Gao Xiaodong to break through Ivanovic with speed.

However, Ivanovic turned slowly, the speed was not slow, when Gao Xiaodong chased after him and Ivanovich, Ivanovic had already turned around and started, Gao Xiaodong ran to the bottom line and wanted to cross, but Ivanovic was not thrown away by him, and blocked the ball from the bottom line.

Gao Xiaodong was a little surprised, he felt that he might have underestimated the starting and acceleration ability of this tall guard.

Gao Xiaodong took a corner kick, Manchester United's two major central defenders came up to compete for the top, due to Chelsea's excellent air defense ability, Gao Xiaodong's passing speed was extremely fast, and several high points in the penalty area did not fight for the ball.

Rooney didn't have the height to compete with the tall defender, he ran to the back point, I thought there was no chance, but I didn't expect to wait for a square, Rooney jumped up with a header, but the ball was too fast, Rooney jumped a little slower, and the ball hit his shoulder and bounced off the bottom line.

Manchester United attacked Chelsea's right flank, Chelsea also attacked Manchester United's right flank, Cech passed the ball to Ashley Cole, Ashley Cole dribbled the ball forward under Nani's press, he and Malouda tacitly cooperated to penetrate the defense of Nani and O'Shea, Malouda saw the very Buffalo Essien squeeze Carrick forward, and a cross to find Essien.

However, Gao Xiaodong quickly made up for Carrick when he fell to the ground, and he cleared the ball before Essien.

Chelsea were pressed and the ball was snatched away by Frank Lampard, who fired a shot straight from 30 yards before the ball hit Scholes' leg and bounced off the line.

Chelsea's corners were powerful, with John Terry, Luiz, Branislav Ivanovic and Didier Drogba all able to grab the spot, and Frank Lampard drove the ball in and it was headed over the bar by Ivanovic, only to be tackled over the bar by a defender.

Manchester United attacked, the ball was handed to Gao Xiaodong's feet again, after seeing Ivanovic's speed, Gao Xiaodong no longer directly used speed to force Ivanovic, he pretended to break through the bottom line, immediately stopped and turned around, and made a gesture to cut to the penalty area.

When Ivanovic just turned around, Gao Xiaodong immediately turned around again, and wanted to break through to the bottom line, after three consecutive turns, Ivanovic was shaken so that he could no longer keep up with Gao Xiaodong's rhythm, Gao Xiaodong went down to the bottom line and passed the ball horizontally to the penalty area.

Manchester United's players who grabbed points were not high, and Gao Xiaodong didn't give the ball high, but passed the ball on the ground, and it was extremely fast, the striker scored when he touched, and the defender could also have an own goal.

But Wayne Rooney had already slipped between the two centre-backs and John Terry didn't dare to let it go, taking the risk to intercept the ball and the ball flew off the bottom line against the post, sending Chelsea fans into the scare.

CCTV's on-site commentator He Hui said with a smile: "Xiaodong is a thief when he kicks football, Ivanovich's speed and strength are stronger than him, and he was stunned to shake Ivanovic with his turn." ”

In the VIP box, Emma whispered to Zhukova: "It looks terrifying, Ivan can't stop Gao Xiaodong." ”

Zhukova said: "This is high, it's really annoying. ”

Gao Xiaodong then sent a corner, but Chelsea's air defense was really good, the ball was pushed out of the penalty area by Terry, and Carrick grabbed the landing point and then distributed it to Gao Xiaodong again.

Ivanovic just defended the header in the penalty area, and it was too late to quickly make up for the side, Gao Xiaodong passed the ball into the penalty area again, looking for Vidic who was in front, but the ball was still pushed out by the defender.

This time the landing spot was grabbed by Frank Lampard, and Ivanovic was played by Gao Xiaodong, who quickly stepped forward to save a little face with his attack.

Frank Lampard knew how to capitalise on Ivanovic's advantage, and he played a long ball wide of the wing, where Ivanovic leaped high and drove the ball towards the box.

Gao Xiaodong was annoyed by Ivanovic's pressure, and he pushed up and threw Ivan to the ground.

Didier Drogba was prepared, as he burst into the box like an armoured car between Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic and headed the ball into the corner.

Van der Sar didn't have time to react, but the ball bounced off the crossbar and the post.

Abu and Zhukova were ready to open their mouths to cheer, but they didn't expect to hit the goalpost, and they all let out a depressed sigh.

Edward said to his brother Joel: "How do you defend this ball? ”

Edward's voice was not low, and the entire box could be heard.

Joel glared at Edward, and said unhappily: "The height gap is there, how to make up for it." ”

Seeing the ball flying in front of Scholes, Gao Xiaodong immediately started, raised his hand to ask for the ball, and wanted to take advantage of Ivanovic's failure to get up and hit his counterattack.

However, Anelka is also an old ball ruffian on the court, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he stretched out his foot to hook Gao Xiaodong.

Referee Atkinson did not see and did not stop the game.

Scholes wanted to pass to Gao Xiaodong, but Gao Xiaodong was kicked down and had to counterattack quickly, so he could only pass the ball to Nani.

Nani's technique on the wing is better than Gao's, but he faces Ashley. Cole, facing the former best left-back in the world, Nani forced a breakthrough and the ball was shoveled out of the touchline by Cole.

The Reds won a throw-in but missed the chance to hit back quickly, with Gao Xiaodong and Paul Scholes both protesting to referee Atkinson for a foul, but Atkinson ignored them.

Manchester United slowly organized a positional battle, and the ball was passed to Gao Xiaodong's feet again.

Anelka came back to help defend Gao Xiaodong, and Patrice Evra also assisted, and Manchester United formed a two-on-two situation on the wing.

Seeing Gao Xiaodong take the ball forward, Evra cut inside vigilantly and took Anelka away for Gao Xiaodong.

Gao Xiaodong burst forward and turned around, as if he wanted to repeat his old tricks, Ivanovic was worried about Gao Xiaodong's cross-cut, but he could only keep up.

Gao Xiaodong really repeated his old tricks, and a Cruyff turned around and killed the bottom line again.

Ivanovic knew that there was no way, turning slowly was slow, he was thrown away by Gao Xiaodong, and he was unable to stop Gao Xiaodong's cross, but Ivanovic must also chase to prevent Gao Xiaodong from cutting inside the bottom line.

The opportunity to cross has come out, and the vast majority of people will cross, but Gao Xiaodong is not the vast majority, he made a cross from the bottom line, but then dunked the ball back.

At this time, Ivanovic was shaken and fell out of the bottom line, completely stupid.

"Beautiful!

"Who said that high people can't be outstanding!"

"Horror Ivan is going to be dizzy!"

……

There was a burst of exclamations in the stands and in the commentary seats.

Edward's face was a little embarrassed in the VIP box, while Emma smiled mysteriously.

Gao Xiaodong shook down Ivanovic and immediately cut inside to the penalty area.

Chelsea centre-back John Terry had to play wide to prevent Gao Xiaodong from shooting from a tight angle before goalkeeper Petr Cech blocked the near corner.

Gao Xiaodong saw Rooney running quickly behind Terry when he dribbled the ball, but Chelsea defender David Luiz did not follow, and he immediately passed the ball to the kickback, giving Rooney a chance to hit most of the empty goal.

Rooney lived up to Gao Xiaodong's trust, and he pushed the ball into the bottom left corner of the goal with a push of his foot.

1:0

The duo joined forces to give Manchester United the lead at Stamford Bridge.
