Chapter 803: Manchester United
Mark Hughes has been directing the game from the sidelines since the start of the game, and he has not returned to his seat even when City have the upper hand on the pitch. Read the full text of the latest chapter. The update is so fast.
In the history of the Manchester derby, Manchester City has always been in a weak position, and was slaughtered by Manchester United led by Yang Fan last season. Of course, now Yang Fan is from Manchester City, which undoubtedly makes Mark Hughes relieved and happy. It's just out of a visceral awe of Manchester United that Mark Hughes doesn't have much confidence in his heart, although in front of the media, he swears that Manchester City has confidence in victory.
Yang Fan's goal relieved Mark Hughes's nervousness and relieved him. The goal bodes well for Manchester City and gives him hope and anticipation for a win in this game.
Mark Hughes also felt very strange, he was strange about Manchester United's tactics, originally before the game Mark Hughes predicted that Manchester United would be at home, using home advantage, at the beginning of the ball 'goal' pressure, he was also worried about whether Manchester City could withstand Manchester United's offensive, but, after the game started, Manchester United did not attack at the beginning, but Manchester City seized the opportunity to kick off first, launched a 'wave' offensive, and kept the offensive on, continued to put pressure on Manchester United's goal, and scored a goal.
What is Moyes going to do? Is he going to play defensive counter-attack?
He didn't expect David Moyes to be so careful at home. Seeing Manchester United's tactics after the opening, Mark Hughes was really taken aback.
※※※※※※※
In fact, like Mark Hughes sitting in the dugout at Manchester City, David Moyes is also walking on thin ice in the Manchester United manager's position, as he has never managed Howe. The Scottish coach of the goal, Moyes has been questioned, before Manchester United lost to Birmingham, which put Moyes under a lot of pressure, and later won Arsenal, only to relieve Moyes's pressure, this Manchester derby, Moyes's shoulder pressure is not lighter than Mark Hughes, not to mention Manchester United is playing at home, if Manchester United loses, Moyes's life will definitely be even more difficult.
From his first day in office, Moyes has been observed with a magnifying glass, and his criticism and doubts have never stopped.
It is not wrong for a new official to take up a new post with a staff member he is familiar with, but it is extremely undesirable to ignore the advice of Ferguson to leave behind his old ministers and purge all the meritorious coaching teams with excellent experience and ability. As we all know, in the later years of Ferguson's tenure, Manchester United's training was led by Muhrensteen and Ferran, who played a vital role in the development of the Red Devils' attacking and defensive system, and also had a wealth of championship experience. On the other hand, Moyes's brains, whether it is Steve Lande or Jimmy Rensden, are all "** silk" who started from the end of the day and have no experience in coaching a big team, and have no ability and experience to manage a championship team. So at some critical moments, it is difficult for the aides to help Moyes make the right choice. This point was criticized by the media before the start of the season, and this also caused Ferguson's dissatisfaction, after all, Muhrensteen and Ferran are extremely important to Ferguson, he described these two as the property of Manchester United, I didn't expect Ferguson's hand-picked Moyes to come to Manchester United, just mercilessly drove these two old courtiers away, Ferguson's heart is not mustard is impossible, of course, the most dissatisfied with Ferguson is that Moyes is not tough enough, in the face of the club's decision to sell Yang Fan, Moyes was not able to resolutely withstand the pressure.
In addition, Moyes's training style has been caricatured as "prehistoric dinosaur level", and he places too much emphasis on physical functions such as running and endurance, but does not achieve anything at the technical level such as the construction of offensive and defensive systems. Rooney has complained about "overtraining" and has been injured several times. Ryan Giggs has also been rumoured to be at odds with Moyes' harsh and rigid approach to training, which he believes is incompatible with United's attacking tradition. Although Giggs later denied it, the media still hyped up the matter.
Of course, the most provocative thing for the media is that Moyes's "**silk" temperament does not match Manchester United. Manchester United in the Ferguson era had a fantastic "magic" (Beckham mentioned this word in his autobiography when talking about his experience at Manchester United), and never gave up until the last moment, which is also related to the manager's personal "sex" and temperament. Have you ever seen a lord admit defeat? never. Whether it's yelling at the referee or turning on the "hair dryer" on the players, Fergie is always domineering and always fights to the end. And Moyes's 'sex' personality and temperament are too common, without any domineering and no courage to die and be born, which is obviously not the backbone of a Manchester United manager.
It was because he had endured these doubts that the sensitive Moyes was upset, and he vowed to do something to silence the doubters. And this Manchester derby, for Moyes, really can't afford to miss anything.
※※※※※※※
Faced with conceding the ball so quickly and the passive situation on the field, Moyes couldn't sit still at this time, he stood up and came to the sidelines to shout loudly.
Conceding the goal so quickly has made Moyes's conservative tactics become a 'chicken' rib, and in such a situation, United cannot afford to be conservative any longer.
He took advantage of the opportunity to kick off again in the middle circle, rushed to the sideline and yelled inside: "What are you doing?! Who made you fall so hard in the midfield?
"Attack, let go. ”
"Goal as much as possible. ”
Rooney looked at the sidelines with disdain, his dislike for Moyes was even stronger, and he fell out with Moyes when he was at Everton, at this time, the two worked together again, although Moyes also tried to appease Rooney, and praised Rooney when facing the media, however, Rooney didn't seem to appreciate it, and he didn't look down on Moyes in his heart.
Take the tactics that Moyes practiced in training, for this game, Moyes first practiced defense, and then practiced offensive routines, all around the wing, in a word, to summarize the ball, go to the side, and then pass into the penalty area......
When did Manchester United become the top team?! Rooney was very resistant to this tactic.
However, in any case, Moyes just shouted that the team should stop being conservative and start attacking, which is always good news.
Rooney spat on the ground and glanced at Yang Fan again: This guy has scored, I have to work hard.
Wayne Rooney is desperate to lead Manchester United to victory over Yang Fan's Manchester City. When Yang Fan was still at Manchester United, the two were partners and friends, and they had never really competed as opponents, and now this opportunity, Rooney is also high-spirited.
※※※※※※※
The game was re-kicked off in the center circle.
City were excited to take the lead, and soon after kick-off, City made a tackle in midfield, cut off the ball and then launched an attacking attack.
"O, Tevez, he suddenly got up and 'shot' the goal, and Foster saved the football. Eddie Gray exclaimed, "In today's game, the Argentine is very eye-catching, he seems to be 'provoked' by the boos and scolding of Manchester United's fans, and he will not stop if he doesn't score today." ”
Moyes was startled to see Tevez's sudden long-range 'shot' saved by Forster, and then City's corner kick made him nervous again.
As Manchester City prepared to take a corner, Moyes paced around the sidelines with a nervous mind. It wasn't until this corner kick was finally firmly held in Foster's arms that he was relieved, standing on the sidelines, his hands in his trouser pockets, staring at the situation on the field and thinking.
Manchester United then took the 'goal' ball, Anderson passed the ball to the wing, Giggs broke through to the edge and hoisted the ball into the box, Berbatov was closely watched by Kompany, did not jump at all, and the ball was plucked out of the air by the Manchester City 'goalkeeper' of Manchester City.
Holding the football, Jiwen also planned to let the football stay in his hand for a while, but when he heard Yang Fan's shout, he looked up and saw that Yang Fan was running forward, so he did not hesitate to drive the football forward with a big foot.
Given's big kick off was a good header, Yang Fan jumped in the air, he ferried the football header to Tevez, and then turned around and ran forward.
Tevez didn't stop the ball and sent a through ball straight away.
The football rolled past Park Ji-sung, who came to defend, and Yang Fan took the lead, and then accelerated with the ball.
Rio Ferdinand burst out of the box.
Yang Fan rushed forward with the ball, seemingly trying to pass Ferdinand, but he caught a glimpse of Manchester United's 'goalkeeper' Foster's position a little forward, and his heart moved, and he directly hung the 'door'.
The sudden lob of the kick made Manchester United's goalkeeper Foster very wolf, and he retreated again and again, almost with all his might, to send the football flying and flying over the crossbar with a punch.
Manchester City's corner.
※※※※※※※
Seeing that the football was hit by Foster, Yang Fan also smiled, he was not sure of this foot hanging 'door', and he was able to win a corner kick, which was also a good result.
Seeing Yang Fan's kick to the 'door' almost caused Manchester United to concede the goal again, Moyes's shouting and roaring sounded again, he really wanted the team to be able to come out of the wolf bèi and be able to stabilize, but unfortunately now Manchester City's attacking Manchester United players have no heart to listen to him yelling on the sidelines.
Their minds are now full of: how can they survive this attack by Manchester City?
As Yang Fan's former teammates, they are the most aware of the horror of Yang Fan's strength, in last season, Manchester United people enjoyed the victory and joy brought by Yang Fan's goal, they were fortunate and proud to have such a teammate, and now, when Yang Fan became an opponent, the heart of Manchester United players is difficult to describe in words.
Manchester City's corner is taken.
Gareth Barry drove the ball towards the front post, the tall Kompany jumped up, and his header smashed into the goal, and Foster subconsciously blocked the ball.
Ferdinand followed Yang Fan, Yang Fan rushed to the second point, and the former was very clever to move his body in advance, which blocked Yang Fan's possible 'shot' and 'goal' angle.
Seeing that the angle of the 'shot' and 'goal' was blocked, Yang Fan did not do anything brutally, he passed the football out, Gareth Barry took the ball on the side, and randomly passed the football to Ireland, who transferred it laterally to De Jong, the Dutchman passed back again, the football went to the feet of Wright Phillips, the latter passed back again, the football went to the center circle, Phillips retreated to ask for the ball, and Manchester City reorganized the attack.
Park Ji-sung pounced on Phillips, who dunked past the South Korean and then split the ball to the side, and Bridge, who 'plugged' it, passed it out.
Yang Fan received the ball not far from the outside of the penalty area, Ferdinand also came to grab the ball, he didn't expect Yang Fan not to stop the ball, but to use his big 'legs' to turn the football upside down again, Ferdinand's foot to grab the ball missed.
Ferdinand naturally would not be willing to be passed by Yang Fan like this, he knew the danger of this person taking the ball into the penalty area. He and Yang Fan became entangled while raising his foot again, intending to kick the football out. At the same time, Park Ji-sung pounced, intending to defend Yang Fan with Ferdinand.
Yang Fan leaned back, he picked up the football again, and then leaned on Ferdinand's body fiercely.
Ferdinand's body was naturally not said, he was leaned on by Yang Fan, and did not retreat, but this also made Yang Fan and allowed him to find a support point to adjust his center of gravity.
Yang Fan leaned on Ferdinand to stabilize his center of gravity, and at this time, Park Ji-sung also pasted it, and the South Koreans even used their hands, and he almost hugged Yang Fan at the waist.
At this time, if Yang Fan falls to the ground, he will be able to win a free kick in a good position for Manchester City, but this is obviously not Yang Fan's style, the body leans against Ferdinand, Yang Fan uses the 'chest' to pad the football again, and then squeezes Park Ji-sung to the side with a pouting of his buttocks, gaining little room for movement, and then picking up the ball on his toes and falling to the ground again, just to avoid Ferdinand's counterattack.
※※※※※※※
This series of actions made the audience fascinated. Manchester City's football 'fans' screamed excitedly, and even Manchester United football 'fans' were stunned.
"Yang Fan put on a great performance at Old Trafford. Eddie Gray shouted.
Getting rid of Park Ji-sung and Ferdinand, Yang Fan leaned forward, used his head to push the football forward a little, and smashed into the penalty area.
Everyone, the entire Manchester City defensive force, was attracted by Yang Fan, Vidic pounced on Yang Fan, and their 'goalkeeper' Foster also adjusted his focus and waited for him.
In the face of Vidic, Yang Fan pulled the ball horizontally and made a move to 'shoot' and 'goal', Vidic immediately turned sideways to block, and Foster was also startled and ready to pounce. Then I saw Yang Fan push the football horizontally.
Tevez had been waiting for a long time, and he greeted the football passed by Yang Fan and directly 'pumped' it.
The soccer ball flew up and into the upper right corner of the goal.
Manchester United 'goalkeeper' Foster only realized at this time who was going to complete the final blow, and by the time he hurriedly threw his body out and pounced on the football, it was too late, and the Manchester United 'goalkeeper' who was still in the air had already seen the football fly into the net.
The ball is in!
In the twenty-ninth minute of the first half, Manchester City scored again and they took a 2-0 lead!
“goooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal!”
"gooooooaaaal!oh!oh!!!Tevez!He scored!He scored the goal of his former club!What a 'fine' goal, Yang Fan's completed a beautiful individual performance! His final pass was also wonderful, Tevez's 'shot' and 'goal' were impeccable, drawing a successful end to Yang Fan's previous performance!"
"2-0! Manchester City made it 2-0!! They are now two goals ahead of Manchester United!"
'It was an unthinkable scoreline, with United two goals down before the half-hour mark and they were stunned by Manchester City at Old Trafford. ”
※※※※※※※
Tevez began to celebrate wildly after the goal, running straight to the front of the stands behind the goal, and then flew up and stomped on the billboard, then one, two, three feet. It took him three hard kicks to stop, and then he held his head high and looked at the Manchester United 'fans' in the stands, he was provoking the 'fans' of the ball.
Although he didn't say anything during the whole process, the meaning was already very clear: Come on, don't you hate me? Don't you scold me? How about it? Are you cool now? Lao Tzu's goal makes you high.' Is it tidal?
Tevez had already fallen out with Manchester United anyway, and the two sides hated each other, and his provocative way of celebrating made it even more impossible for him and Manchester United fans to reconcile.
What is the answer to Tevez?
The whole stadium booed and cursed at Old Trafford, and countless middle fingers stood in the stands.
Yang Fan originally ran over to congratulate Tevez on his goal, but at this moment, Yang Fan could only smile bitterly, he knew that the hatred between Tevez and Manchester United's football 'fans' was getting bigger and bigger, and this matter was making a fuss. When Tevez joined Manchester United from West Ham United, there was an agreement with Manchester United, that is, if Tevez was 'colorful', Manchester United would fulfill the agreement and buy Tevez completely, but later, Manchester United broke the contract and refused to buy out Tevez on the grounds that Tevez did not meet expectations, which made the two sides completely fall out.
Mark Hughes rushed out of the coach's bench and waved his fist to celebrate the goal, which made Mark Hughes completely excited, leading by two goals, which for Manchester City, although it cannot be said that the victory was sealed, but, considering that the shape on the field is Manchester City's full initiative, this is undoubtedly a big increase in the chances of Manchester City winning.
There was also jubilation on the Manchester City bench, and the goal was a huge morale boost.
Compared to the joyous atmosphere on Manchester City's side, Manchester United's side is dead. The players on the bench held their heads in their hands, couldn't believe their eyes, and they conceded again?
David Moyes' was gloomy, he was getting together with his staff Steve Lande and Jimmy Lonsden to discuss what to do, looking at the current situation, Manchester United are quite passive, to put it mildly, if they concede another goal in the first half, it will really be a failure.
Rooney grimaced, gritted his teeth and cursed, and then found Giggs murderously.
"Ryan, we can't count on that waste coach anymore. We have to do something. Rooney made no secret of his disdain for Moyes
