Chapter 0040 - See Penalty Again (Ask for Votes)

Marcus Rashford attracted a lot of Watford's defensive strength, leaving holes in other positions, and United had several chances in a row.

In the 7th minute, Blind crossed from the left, Prodel rose to the top, and Holebas cleared the siege with poor footwork and almost an own goal, but fortunately, the ball was confiscated by Gomez.

In the 8th minute, Schneiderlin sent a precise long pass of more than 40 meters from the backfield, which directly penetrated Watford's defence. With Marcus Rashford taking away two defenders, Anthony Martial was successfully offside and appeared behind Watford's defence.

It's just that I don't know if I didn't wear shooting boots today, or if I just recovered from injury, Martial didn't stop the ball well, and the ball was destroyed by the Watford defenders who rushed over.

However, the offensive did not stop there. After Manchester United took a corner kick and was pushed out by the opponent, Herrera sent a precise long ball to find Anthony Martial.

However, Anthony Martial's header in the top right corner of the six-yard box was so close that it was unbelievably deflected.

Rashford looked at the frustrated little brother, and couldn't help but shake his head, secretly saying that the little brother's header ability is worse than his own, if it is data, I don't know if there is 60?

………………

After withstanding this round of Manchester United's attack, the scene entered a stalemate stage, and the two sides went back and forth, each of which got a certain chance to score.

In the 11th minute, Watford conceded the ball in front, but they immediately launched a counter-attack and grabbed the ball back to attack. Odion Ighalo fired low from Mensah on the edge of the penalty area and the ball was deflected wide by Blind.

In the 16th minute, United also had a good chance to score. United played a pass in midfield and Marcus Rashford pulled to the left of the penalty area to take away Watford's defender and allow Depay to break through.

However, Depay cut inside from the left and fired a shot from the left side of the box, but the ball was unbelievably wide of the far touchline.

In the 18th minute, Watford's sideline ball was snatched away by Manchester United's players, but Watford immediately launched a scramble, forcing Herrera to have a big foot to pass back, and after a few steps at left-back Rojo, he found that there was no chance to pass the ball forward, so he passed the ball to central defender Blind.

Perhaps it was a few minutes of not touching the ball, which caused Blind's feet to be a little cold, and after taking a few steps forward, he made a careless forward pass to Schneiderlin, who intended to pass to Manchester United's midfielder, but was met by Watford striker Ighalo.

Odion Ighalo intercepted Blind's pass, but the ball stopped a little too far from his body to form a shot right away. In the middle of the game, he started quickly, ran a few steps forward, caught up with the football and shot with his feet.

Blind's pass was broken, and he was so frightened that he rushed to intercept Ighalo in a panic.

Although he was unable to stop Odion Ighalo's shot in the end, it did play a certain role in disrupting the ball as Ighalo's shot lacked power and the ball was confiscated by De Gea.

Blind's low-level mistake scared the whole Manchester United team, and they thought they were going to concede the goal like this.

Not only the players on the pitch, but also the substitutes, coaches and fans on the sidelines were scared enough, and coach Louis van Gaal was particularly angry, his face as black as the sky before the heavy rain.

You know, Blind is his cronies, and when his position was just secured, he made such a low-level mistake, which was almost like pushing him into the fire pit.

………………

Manchester United, who escaped the disaster, finally woke up from the silence of the previous few minutes, and the players' attention became focused.

De Gea kicked the ball off with a big foot, and Depay on the left halfway line didn't stop the ball and played directly into the back of Watford's defence.

Marcus Rashford finally found his chance this time, and the moment Depay passed the ball, he was quick to start and go straight into the opposition penalty area.

Manchester United's attack so quickly caught Watford off guard. As they were still in attack, neither the midfielders nor full-backs had returned to the defensive position, with only two midfielders and two centre-backs dragging behind.

The two midfielders were far away from Rashford, and it must have been too late, so centre-back No. 3 Bristol had to bite the bullet and defend Rashford's attack.

If it was before, Bristol still had time to intercept Rashford outside the penalty area, but now Rashford has not only added 3 points of dribbling, but also added 10 points of speed, which is no longer comparable to another Rashford.

So, when Bristol got close to Rashford, Rashford was already in the box.

However, because Bristol blocked Rashford's direction, it was impossible for Rashford to shoot directly from this position, and his passes were not answered by his teammates because he was running too fast and his team-mates were still behind him.

Seeing that the opposition's other centre-back, No.5 Prodel, had not yet arrived, Rashford decided to break through Bristol.

I saw that his right foot gently flicked the ball to the left, stepped forward with his left foot, and blocked the ball back.

Deep-fried croquettes!

Although this croquette is not quite standard, it is indeed a croquette.

Marcus Rashford broke through Bristol's defence with a croquette.

………………

Bristol freaked out, knowing that once Rashford was allowed to break through, his partner, another centre-back, Prodel, would be too late to stop him, and Rashford would face goalkeeper Gomes alone.

"You must not let him pass!" Bristol shouted in his heart, subconsciously stretched out his foot and hooked Rashford's foothold, which had formed a breakthrough.

Rashford, who was moving at high speed, was naturally tripped by this hook.

At the same time, the referee's whistle sounded. He ran towards the incident, pointed his right hand to the penalty spot and gave Bristol a yellow card.

Players from both sides surrounded the manager and complained to the manager.

Watford's players complained about Rashford's fake fall, believing that Bristol had touched the ball first and then brought down Rashford, which was a successful defence and should have given Rashford a yellow card for the fake.

The Manchester United players believe that Bristol is Watford's last defender other than the goalkeeper, and Manchester United deserve a red dot package for his foul.

The manager kept shaking his head and insisting on his decision.

At this time, the scene that just happened was also displayed on the big screen at the scene. Marcus Rashford broke through Bristol with a not-so-standard croquette, only to be hooked by Bristol and fall into the box.

However, Bristol is not the last defender of Watford at this time, and the other centre-back, Prodel, is slightly behind Bristol.
