Chapter 0308: A Beautiful Start
The match against Rostock ended smoothly, and Aachen won a big win away from home with a score of 0:3.
Christian Sen, who started for the first time, scored twice, Joao scored a pass and a shot, and Zhuo Cunzhi and Mendieta both had an assist.
At the same time, Aachen also scored 13 goals in five rounds, becoming the most attacking team in the Bundesliga.
Aachen, meanwhile, holds the top spot in the standings with 13 points from five rounds.
They are followed by Bayer Leverkusen, who are four wins and one defeat in five games, and they are only one point behind Aachen.
I have to say that Aachen's strong offensive power and momentum at the beginning really scared many people.
And given last season's results in Aachen, no one would dare to underestimate them, let alone think they would collapse at the end of the season.
For a while, Aachen gradually seemed to gradually fade away from the halo of a dark horse on his head and became a real powerhouse in the Bundesliga!
Until, the game against Manchester United came......
Aachen's first Champions League match was so memorable that many Aachen fans bought tickets.
Unfortunately, this first match was not played at Aachen's own home stadium, but at Old Trafford, Manchester United's home stadium.
Old Trafford is written as "old trafford" in English, but some Liverpool fans like to pronounce it as "old toilet", and it is said that the stadium used to be an old toilet.
Of course, let's not talk about the specific situation, after all, a certain street fighter is a Liverpool fan, and he is afraid that Manchester United will not be blackened to death.
In this game, Manchester United put on a 451 formation.
The goalkeeper position is Howard, the American goalkeeper, who is probably the most unreliable part of Manchester United's current lineup.
However, Ferguson had no choice, and for a while, he really couldn't find a goalkeeper worthy of Manchester United.
At the back, it was a combination of Gary Neville, Silvestre, Rio Ferdinand and O'Shea.
Among them, opposite Zhuo Cunzhi is O'Shea, a player known as Manchester United's golden oil.
In midfield, it was a combination of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Bart, Phil Neville, Fortune and Ryan Giggs.
Keane, the United captain, did not play and the captain's armband was worn on Giggs's arm.
Little Ronaldo, who is still crying, is now sitting on the bench, waiting for his first Champions League game.
In the forward position, it is Ruud van Nistelrooy as the lone arrow.
The strength of the Dutch striker is undoubted, his shooting skills are no worse than those of Roy Mackai of the same country, and he has the skill of holding the ball and stopping the ball with one hand.
I have to say that when Vanney stopped the ball, he was the number one in the world!
And it was with this skill that Vanney left a deep impression on the generals of Aachen.
In the ninth minute, Ryan Giggs broke through on the left and Ruud van Nistelrooy received the ball in the box and shot first before Manuel and Spanier arrived.
Benaglio made a save, but he didn't even touch the edge of the ball.
1:0!
Manchester United took the lead at home turf.
Ruud van Nistelrooy's series of movements, from stopping the ball to shooting, took a fairly short time.
Basically, he can stop the ball in a comfortable position where he can shoot, and then open the opponent's door with a hole before the defender arrives!
Obviously, Aachen's defensive strength is not very reliable.
Whether it is Manuel or Spaniel, the level is not strong enough, and he seems very powerless in front of Vanney.
In fact, if you really want to talk about abuse, there are really few people who can be better than Vanney.
With his unique skills, as long as the opponent's defense line is not the top, it will not be able to stop his attack!
Instead of those teams of European giants, it would be nice to have two reliable attacking players, and expect to have superstar-level defenders?
It's better to think about this kind of thing in your dreams, there is everything in your dreams!
In fact, Vanney's strongest point is that even a team that can squeeze into the Champions League group stage is abusive in his opinion!
And Aachen, on the other hand, falls into this category!
Just two minutes later, it was Ryan Giggs' cross from the left that Ruud van Nistelrooy fired in a volley that hit the post.
In the 17th minute, Ribery crossed from the left, Christiansen crossed the ball to Joao, and Joao's powerful shot was saved by Howard.
In the 23rd minute, Mendieta and Zhuo Cunzhi combined on the right side to successfully break through the defense guarded by O'Shea, Phil Neville and Ferdinand, and finally, Zhuo Cunzhi took a long shot in the penalty area, forcing Howard to save, Joao was the first to grab the point, but was pushed to the ground by Gary Neville.
However, before he fell to the ground, Joao managed to kick the ball out.
This ball has a lot of strength, and the most important thing is that the angle is tricky, Howard just saved Zhuo Cunzhi's long-range shot, and there was already a problem in the position, and he could only be helpless in the face of Joao's not fast ball.
1:1!
Aachen equalised away from home!
In the 31st minute, it was Aachen's side who created the threatening goal first.
In this game, the captain of Manchester United, Keane, did not play, and no one in the midfield position could stop Zhuo Cunzhi, facing the defense of Phil Neville and Bart, Zhuo Cunzhi left them behind when he moved at his feet.
You know, after fusing Kluivert's player card, his skills are obviously more spiritual.
After all, Kluivert has been the most talented Dutch player in recent years, and he is a striker who can only be described as talented in every way, except for his less than excellent shooting skills.
Even, he is fully capable of being a midfielder, because he is quite good in passing, organisation and overall view, and it is not without that Van Gaal tried this when he was the manager of Barcelona.
Of course, there are more important reasons for choosing Kluivert's player card this time.
But it's not about the game.
During the time he got the player card, Zhuo Cunzhi finally integrated Kluivert's player card.
The young superstar may not have a lot of experience, but his understanding of football is impressive, and more importantly, he is extremely talented.
With a slight fusion of this aura, Zhuo Cunzhi's feet have become more agile, and at this moment, Phil Neville even has a feeling that he is playing against the young version of Ryans!
After breaking through the midfield defence, facing Rio Ferdinand's defence, he quickly distributed the ball to Mendieta, who tried to curl a shot from the edge of the box, but Howard flew off the line.
If the game is over, Aachen's performance can only be described as outstanding.
However, this is only the beginning, and the game is only a third of the way around!
Zhuo Cunzhi, who is still regretting missing an opportunity, may not have imagined that the next two-thirds of the time will belong to Manchester United!
