Stade Louis II of Monaco, UEFA Super Cup.

The duel between Gao Han and Ferguson, the two world's top coaches, and the contest between Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain, the two old and new giants, have attracted the attention of the world and made this European Super Cup attract worldwide attention.

And both sides have made a lot of preparations.

Ferguson uncharacteristically discharged a four-four-two formation, or a four-four-one-formation.

The goalkeeper is Keylor Navas, the backline is Layton Baines, Pepe, Ferdinand and Dario Srna, in the center-back combination, Ferguson still chose the veteran Rio Ferdinand to partner Pepe at the critical moment, and Alderweireld, who has performed very well after joining Manchester United, is on the bench.

The midfielder is Carrick behind, Matic responds from the side, Mkhitaryan and Valencia are separated on the wings, Van Persie is in front, Rooney is dragging back to play the forward position, but forward and backward, very mobile, a bit of a five-midfield feeling.

Ferguson's quest for stability is also reflected in Gao Han's body, after all, this is the first top European game after the reorganization of Paris Saint-Germain, and the opponent is last season's Champions League champion Manchester United, Gao Han does not dare to be careless.

The goalkeeper was Thibaut Courtois, the backline was Marcelo, Thiago Silva, David Luiz and Cesar Azpilicueta, the lone midfielder Andrea Pirlo was behind, Di Maria and Yaya Toure were in the middle, Neymar, Didier Drogba and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang formed the trident, and Suarez was put on the bench by Gao Han.

The first game was always particularly difficult, so Gao Han chose to start the veteran Drogba in the middle instead of Suarez.

Speculation that PSG would continue to play with the pass-and-control style that Alpine was good at, while Alex Ferguson's United would adopt a pragmatic counter-attacking tactic came true, but surprisingly, the game was not conservative at all, but rather open.

Paris Saint-Germain controlled the ball from the start, with a midfield of Andrea Pirlo, Yaya Toure and Angel Di Maria, plus Neymar, Thiago Silva and Marcelo behind them, and the Ligue 1 giants were in better control than Manchester United, and it was natural to have the ball.

Manchester United's defensive counter-attack was very pragmatic, not to snatch the ball from Paris Saint-Germain, but they did not back down, but took the initiative to press, while Rooney in front of the field actively retreated, aiming at Pirlo.

With the back line pressing forward, Wayne Rooney dropping back, and the four midfielders of Pierre-Emerick, Nemanja Matic, Michael Carrick and Valencia, five of Manchester United's players pressed the midfield of Paris Saint-Germain, which made the game intense from the start, frequently interrupted by fouls, and the rhythm was never controlled.

After the opening, PSG, who controlled the ball, played better, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang moved closer to Drogba and dropped back a little deeper, and Neymar moved closer to the middle, which made Manchester United's Carrick and Nemanja Matic look passive, so Pepe and Rio Ferdinand had to press forward to a higher position.

So, in the fifth minute of the opening minute, PSG created a threat.

After a series of downs in midfield, Yaya Toure suddenly struck a straight shot behind Manchester United, and Aubameyang slid in at breakneck speed to catch the ball, but suddenly fell when he got past Pepe.

The Gabon international accused Pepe of a small tugging, but the United centre-back said there was no foul, and the two had a verbal altercation on the pitch, and the referee made a decision that Pepe had committed a foul, but did not give a card, giving Paris Saint-Germain a free-kick about 35 meters from goal.

Andrea Pirlo took the free-kick himself, of high quality, but it was too far away and was saved by Keylor Navas.

But soon, PSG made a comeback.

United's two centre-backs were back and forth, leaving gaps behind them, and with the speed of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and the speed of Neymar, PSG began to try to pass through the ball to find space behind the United defence.

Soon, the Red Devils' central defenders had to turn around again and again quickly, and the scene looked very embarrassing.

Especially in the ninth minute, Di Maria suddenly made a diagonal pass in the middle and distributed it to the left wing, Marcelo quickly cut in, grabbed ahead of Dario Srna, caught up with the ball in front of the left baseline, and passed directly into the penalty area.

Drogba, who was following down the middle, volleyed directly into the air unguarded, but accidentally knocked the ball away.

Having missed the close shot, the veteran Drogba regretted it.

But two minutes later, the Ivory Coast elephant king reciprocated, carrying the United centre-back with his body, then turned and sent a delicate ball behind Aubameyang, and the Gabon international did not live up to Drogba's wishes, and he clapped the horse to catch up.

But at the critical moment, Navas suddenly abandoned the goal, regardless of the danger, pounced directly on the ball, a little faster than Aubameyang, and saved the ball first, and the Gabon international even had to lose his center of gravity and fall to the ground in order to avoid Navas.

Creating chances in a row, PSG looked to be in control of the game.

Andrea Pirlo, in particular, frequently threatens United's goal with overhead passes.

But just when everyone thought that Paris Saint-Germain were going to suppress Manchester United and that the goal might be close at hand, the Red Devils suddenly launched a counter-attack, and Carrick sent a half-high ball to the halfway line.

Van Persie dropped back from the front, jammed David Luiz with his body and chested the ball to Mkhitaryan on the left, while the Armenian quickly got rid of the defender and rushed forward with the ball quickly.

PSG's defence chased back and David Luiz, who had made a mistake by Van Persie, chased after Mkhitaryan, but after entering the edge of the penalty area, Mkhitaryan suddenly crossed the ball.

Rooney, who had been following up in the middle, took the opportunity to stop the ball on the right and after getting rid of Thiago Silva and Marcelo, he fired a right-footed shot into the bottom left corner.

Courtois has been on the lookout for Rooney's right foot, standing a little on the right, and the two PSG defenders were unable to block Rooney's shot angle in time, which directly led to the shot crashing into the bottom of the net.

1 to 0!

…………

"It's still a very classic Manchester United-style counter-attack. ”

After seeing Manchester United score, Zidane exhaled heavily.

Van Persie is better than Berbatov in that his tactical value is very obvious, and he has greatly improved Manchester United's frontline, so Ferguson did not hesitate to put Tevez on the bench for him.

It's like the counterattack just now, very classic, Van Persie, who was supposed to be at the front, suddenly retreated, and at the same time pulled out a central defender who defended him, which was David Luiz.

PSG's coaching staff had been told to do so before the game, but David Luiz was careless at crucial moments, which led to Van Persie stopping the ball on Mkhitaryan, and the Armenian was able to quickly shake off defenders and drive straight into the PSG defence.

At this time, only Azpilicueta and Thiago Silva were dragged behind, while Rooney, who originally played in the front midfield, was at the very front of the middle and became the end point of the counterattack.

Relying on this set, Manchester United didn't know how many teams they destroyed last season, and even in the Champions League final, Bayern Munich also fell on this trick, which can be described as tried and tested.

Robin van Persie, Wayne Rooney, Michael Carrick and Mkhitaryan all played to their strengths in this counter-attacking routine.

"Our players were a bit too hasty and pressed too high. Gao Han said with a frown.

So far in this game, he has not used the skill card, because he still wants to play a real game with Ferguson, and from the opening to the present, Paris Saint-Germain's strength is there, but it is slightly lacking in game experience and on-the-spot performance.

"Drogba's performance in this game was also average. Zidane said helplessly.

In the fourth round of Ligue 1 last weekend, Drogba showed excellent form, scoring two goals and providing an assist, and all three of the team's goals came from his feet, so the whole team has a lot of confidence in him.

After careful consideration, Gao Han felt that Drogba had more experience in the Champions League and he was more familiar with Manchester United, so he finally chose to use Drogba to start in place of Suarez and play as the team's central striker.

However, from the performance after the opening period, Drogba's form cannot be said to be bad, but it is also relatively average, not active enough, not putting enough pressure on United's two central defenders, completely different from when he played in the league three days ago.

"At the end of the day, it's old. Gao Han sighed with embarrassment.

Drogba is also thirty-four years old, and a player who relied on his body to eat when he was young can still maintain a level of strength like Drogba at the age of thirty-four.

The current Elephant King has long since lost the peak of his year, but his experience and wisdom on the field are sharper and more precious.

But although some facts are cruel, he must admit that he can no longer cope with two games a week, and he may even have some pressure to play one game a week, and the years are unforgiving.

When Gao Han and Zidane regretted that Drogba was no longer at his peak, the situation suddenly changed on the court.

After Di Maria broke the ball in midfield, he quickly pushed forward and passed to the feet of Neymar.

After the Brazilian player took the ball with his back, he turned to get rid of Carrick, and went directly to the Manchester United backline, surrounded by four players, he forced the ball out of the middle, and relied on his own individual ability in the penalty area to create a chance to score with his feet.

But the shot from near the penalty spot didn't hit the ground and the ball was easily confiscated by Keylor Navas.

Neymar's wonderful one-on-five performance made the fans of the entire Louis II stadium cheer and boil.

"He's getting more and more of a superstar now. Zidane smiled appreciatively.

Gao Han is also pleased, but he has also seen Di Maria's performance, "He is also getting more and more used to playing in the middle of the midfield. ”

In contrast, he was more pleased to see Di Maria's transformation, because he was well aware of Neymar's quality from the start.

Neymar's brilliant performance greatly boosted PSG's attack, but in the 25th minute, Carrick planned another counter-attack.

Dario Srna on the right drove the ball across the halfway line and passed to Valencia, who was pulled to the wing, and then quickly inserted it himself, and Valencia also knew how to pass the ball to the baseline.

After receiving the ball, Dario Srna observed the penalty area, passed to the penalty area, and sent it to the edge of the small penalty area, Rooney cut in the back row, grabbed Courtois before he could attack, calmly pushed the shot, and scored again.

At this moment, Gao Han on the sidelines spread his hands helplessly.

"I'm dizzy, he even stole this trick, can you get a face?"
