Chapter 744: Van der Sar!
Seventy-three minutes into the game, a Manchester City attack.
Kolarov dribbled the ball to the midfield, David Silva received the ball, and at this time, Yang Fan retreated to respond, and the Spanish midfielder immediately passed the ball.
Yang Fan pulled the ball and turned around, he rushed forward with the ball, Park Ji-sung followed Yang Fan closely and wanted to stop Yang Fan's attack with a foul, and stretched out his foot from one side to trip Yang Fan's foot
Yang Fan was not in a hurry, poked the football out first, and then jumped up by himself, dodged Park Ji-sung's tackle, caught up with the football himself, and rushed along the side with the ball.
His galloping degree gives fans a feeling of blood rushing.
Yang Fan rushed forward with the ball at high speed, while looking to the right side to observe the running position of his teammates.
Nani returned to his own half to help defend this time, and he came up to intercept Yang Fan. He is not a defensive player, he is not good at interception, and he doesn't expect to be able to stop Yang Fan, but out of the consciousness of a professional player, he came up and stretched out his feet to intercept.
For a shooter like Yang Fan, Nani's defensive movements were too obvious, and Yang Fan suddenly changed direction in front of Nani with a high-speed dribble, and immediately cut from the inside, passing Nani like this.
After Yang Fan cut inside, he pretended to shoot, but suddenly passed the football to the right side of the penalty area.
There, David Silva played the ball to Tevez, who **** stopped the ball, then picked up the ball and passed an overhead ball!
"Yang Fan !!!," the commentator shouted.
People saw that Yang Fan, who had passed the ball to Silva before, suddenly stepped forward at this time and entered the penalty area.
He ran a little too far, with the football behind him.
What a Yang Fan!
He leaned back directly and hung the golden hook upside down!
This barb shot was quite chic and exciting, and Van der Sar subconsciously reached out to block it and knocked the football out.
Then, Tevez, who followed up, shot again and was held in the arms of Van der Sar, who reacted quickly in the second.
"Got pounced!"
"Van der Sar!"
The commentators on the commentary seat were all lamented, and Yang Fan's barb shot was quite exciting, but it was a pity that he was saved by Van der Sar.
After Van der Sar grabbed the ball, he quickly got up and ran to the line of the penalty area, where he tossed the ball to Fletcher, who looked ahead and suddenly kicked the ball out with a big kick.
The ball was kicked into the back of the Manchester City by Fletcher, and Nani cut in quickly. Nani's performance in today's game was still relatively good, and the three goals of Manchester United were attributed to him. The Portuguese's performance today is above par compared to his average performance this season.
Seeing Nani rushing towards the ball's landing, Colo Toure rushed up to meet the ball, intending to take a safe step and jump up to push the ball back into the box and head it to goalkeeper Joe Hart.
However, as a centre-back, Colo Toure made an unforgivable mistake and he seemed to have a slight problem judging where the football should fall.
He didn't make it to the top of the football!
He's on top!
"Hell!" Mancini stood up at once.
Rooney didn't expect Colo Toure to rise to the top, and when he ran to the football, he even glanced at Colo Toure in surprise, obviously not expecting this top defender to make such a mistake.
The football is in the air, Rooney is chasing the football.
Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart realised something was wrong and immediately burst out of the net, attacking to get ahead of Wayne Rooney and hold the ball.
"Damn!" Mancini, who saw this scene on the sidelines, scolded angrily, and he looked nervously into the field.
Rooney certainly didn't let go of such an opportunity, he didn't slow down in the slightest, after getting past Colo Toure, and then continued to run forward at high speed.
Rooney was closer to the ball than Joe Hart, and before the City goalkeeper could hold it, he lifted his right foot to pick it up and hoist it into the empty net behind Joe Hart.
"Rooney ——!!!" The commentator of Manchester United Radio was shouting Rooney's name when Colo Toure was about to clear the ball with a header, but there was a mistake on the top, and as soon as the name was called, he saw Rooney's clever and dexterous lob shot, hoisting the football into the empty goal behind Joe Hart!
“!”
"Manchester United, tenacious Manchester United, Rooney's goal, they tied the score at 4-4!"
"Rooney, he scored, they equalized!"
"Four to four! Wayne Rooney equalised!
'It's the best chance for Manchester United, they're in morale now, they still need to score, preferably to kill the game in normal time, they need to score as much as they can for the rest of the game!
'It was a blow for City, especially when a defender made a mistake like a header, which would be quite frustrating for the players. ”
Rooney looked emotional after the goal! he rushed into the net, picked up the football, and then ran to the centre circle, swinging his fists as he ran!
Seeing Wayne Rooney score, the Manchester United fans at the new Wembley Stadium burst into a tsunami of cheers, and the fans saw the win once again. Hold up the hope of the championship!
After that goal, both sides made substitutions, with Ryan Giggs coming on for Park Ji-sung for Manchester United.
For Manchester City, James Milner came on to replace David Silva. David Silva had a fitness problem and couldn't run.
Boateng came on as a replacement for Kolo Toure, who had a poor performance today. The Ivorian defender's rise to the top just now was really a low-level mistake that shouldn't have happened to a star of his level.
The game is back and Manchester United fans will be hoping their team can keep up the good work. Keep scoring goals.
However, after the restart, it was Manchester City who came closest to scoring.
"Tevez, he's dribbling, he's beautiful, he's breaking Fletcher!, he's got a good technique...... Zabaleta is coming up...... Oops, it's a pity the cross is a little bigger...... Wait, Yaya Toure ran up, he stopped the ball near the touchline, and he crossed again!"
Yang Fan jumped high in the penalty area, and this time, Yang Fan overpowered the tall Ferdinand, and he grabbed the landing point!
In the air, facing the football, it is directly a powerful head shake!
Beautiful lion shakes his head and strikes the goal!
"Van der Sar !!," the Manchester commentator shouted excitedly. "The old Dutch goalkeeper made an unbeatable save!
The header that was close to goal was reached out by Van der Sar and lifted the ball off the crossbar. The veteran Dutch goalkeeper made a world-class save.
After landing on the ground, Yang Fan saw the sky and roared! This goal didn't score, which made him almost crazy!
When Yang Fan jumped high and hit the goal with a header. In the dugout and on the bench for Manchester City, someone had already jumped up and was ready to celebrate the goal.
Unfortunately, Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar made a save to extinguish the fire in their hearts. The group of people folded their heads in their hands and retracted into their seats.
"Van der Sar is in great shape today!" Mancini complained below. That's right, this ball, he doesn't think it's Yang Fan's bad shot, Yang Fan's header is already quite good, this is Van der Sar's save is too beautiful, this is completely beyond the level of save.
In fact, don't look at Manchester United conceded four goals today, but these goals are really not Van der Sar's responsibility, the old Dutch goalkeeper's performance today is quite exciting, if it weren't for Van der Sar's high and low block, Manchester City would have been able to score at least two goals.
Ferguson also applauded on the sidelines, applauding veteran goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar.
In fact, Van der Sar has already announced that he will retire at the end of the season.
And this FA Cup final will also be Van der Sar's last FA Cup game.
Although the season is not over yet, Manchester United have begun to pay tribute to Van der Sar and the veteran Dutch goalkeeper.
Manchester United's official website praised Van der Sar as a "super goalkeeper" and believes that the Dutch goalkeeper can play for another year physically. Van der Sar has kept 19 clean sheets in the Premier League this season. In the past three seasons, the Red Devils have conceded the lowest average goals per game when he has played for Manchester United, and have kept more clean sheets. This season, United have conceded just 0.8 goals per game when Van der Sar has been on the pitch and 1.2 when he has not played. In the last 14 appearances in Van der Sar, United have conceded just seven goals, an average of 0.5 goals per game, and kept eight clean sheets. The decision of such a superstar to leave the Red Devils this summer is definitely sad news for tens of millions of Manchester United fans around the world.
In this FA Cup final, Manchester United fans shouted slogans, hoping that Manchester United can win the FA Cup, so that the old goalkeeper can retire and leave with the trophy proudly.
And in today's game, Van der Sar's performance can be said to be world-class, this 40-year-old goalkeeper, as if he is ten years younger, is in the game, all kinds of saves, high and low blocks!
"Van der Sar like this, we really don't want him to retire. "With his current form, he could have played for another year, or even two years, and for Van der Sar, age is not a problem at all depending on his form. ”
"It's sad news for the fans, and Van der Sar's decision to retire seems irreversible, as he himself confirmed. Mortenson said.
