Chapter 100: Hanging Shot
As soon as Frase saw that Wen Zhihao was being taken care of, he hurriedly made a gesture of approaching Lashka on the side of the rice field, and shouted: "Milot, get close to Yingwen!" ”
Rashka immediately moved closer to Wen Zhihao, but the change didn't work. Manchester United's players are basically first-class stars or even superstars in Europe, so they can naturally judge who is the core of the field. All of Vites' tactics revolve around Wen Zhihao, and the others are just feints to attract firepower.
Seeing that it had no effect, Frasé hurried to the bench to greet Castenio. While it was a bit risky to use up all the substitutions in the early sixties, Fraser didn't want to wait any longer. Finally, I saw some hope, and if it continues like this, the team will definitely fall into passivity again.
Wen Zhihao saw that Castenio had come to the sidelines, and immediately raised his spirit, and at the same time beckoned his teammates to withstand the last minute or two.
High-level confrontation is most taboo in the period before and after the substitution, and there are uncontrollable accidents. The manager's substitutions are all made with specific tactical intentions, and once the situation changes suddenly during this period, the previous tactical design can only be completely overturned, and the impact on the team will be comprehensive.
Two minutes later, Manchester United tried a wave of attack and was cleared by central defender Van Beek, outside the penalty area, Wen Zhihao saw Fellaini pounce on the second point, and kicked the ball directly out of the sideline, curbing the possibility of Manchester United's continuous attack, and Fraser also took the opportunity to play a third card.
Castenho comes on to replace Kazaishvili.
Gaddyaishvili was diligent on the defensive end today, but provided limited help on the offensive end.
Casteño made a gesture on the pitch after his appearance, apparently explaining the latest positioning adjustment. He also deliberately walked to Wen Zhihao's side and said, "Wen, the boss will let you move your position to the front line, be a shadow striker around me, and wait for an opportunity to plug in." ”
Wen Zhihao made an OK gesture.
Vitesse was extremely resilient today. After the substitution, it changed from a 4-6-0 strikerless formation to a 4-4-2. The midfield combination became Lashka and Luis Baker, with Castenho as the arrowhead to attract the defence and a bridgehead after winning the ball, and the real killer was Wen Zhihao who was ambushed behind him.
He Wei saw this substitution in the Beijing studio and immediately guessed Frasser's intention: "Obviously, this substitution is to increase Wen Zhihao's activity space and liberate Wen Zhihao to a greater extent." Just ......"
He Wei said that he was a little regretful here: "If you talk about the fulcrum, Zhang Yuning seems to be a better choice, and his ability to run without the ball is also excellent. ”
On this night, Chinese football almost made two pieces of history. For the first time, a Chinese player scored against a European giants in the Europa League, with two Chinese players representing the same club in the Europa League.
The latter is only a little worse. Otherwise, it would be a perfect night for thousands of Chinese fans.
After Castenho came on the pitch, he strictly implemented Frasse's tactical arrangement, firmly nailed between the two central defenders Blind Jr. and Smalling like a nail, and handed over the other central defender Bailly to Wen Zhihao. At the same time, Castenio transforms into a killer who is active in the offside line. Blind Jr. and Smalling did not dare to rashly move their positions to help defend Wen Zhihao, for fear of being made offside.
As the game progressed, the butterfly effect of Frasser's substitution began to show. Wen Zhihao took advantage of Bailly's lack of mobility, running back and forth in front of the penalty area, while actively seeking to cooperate with Casteño, while Nakamba, who was almost invisible in the first half, belonged to the "track and field footballer", and with a wide sprint space, he also played a speed advantage on the wing. The close combination of the wings and the middle makes the disadvantages of the three-centre-back system begin to appear. Especially the newly signed Bailly, the weakness of not cooperating with his teammates is further amplified.
For a period of time after Vitesse's substitution, although it seemed that Manchester United still had the initiative in general, Vitesse's threatening attacks had caused danger in front of Manchester United on several occasions.
Joe Kruka couldn't help but complain about Mourinho's slow reaction: "What is Jose Mourinho waiting for? Do you have to wait until your opponent equalizes before you come back to the stunt? ”
Jose Mourinho is, after all, a world-class champion coach who has been through a lot of big scenes, and the current situation is not enough for him to play the last card. But that doesn't mean he's indifferent. He came to the sidelines and shouted at Blind Jr. and Bailly, "Daley! Eric! ”
In the deadball state, the two heard the manager's shouts and looked at the dugout at the same time.
Mourinho gestured to the two. The two of them understood in seconds.
After that, the responsibilities of Blind Jr. and Bailly were swapped with each other. Eric Bailly assists Chris Smalling and Casteño in the fight for the ball in the air. Blind Jr., who is more mobile and has a faster defensive rate, is dedicated to guarding Wen Zhihao.
The game lasted nearly 70 minutes, and the physical fitness of both sides reached a point close to the limit. On Manchester United's side, Mourinho let "Little Pig" Schweinsteiger lean into the middle to participate in the ball to control the rhythm, and while the opponent was in possession of the ball, Wen Zhihao took a slight breath in the center circle. The continuous high-intensity acceleration ran made his fitness a little unsustainable in a short period of time, he was not involved in this stage of the defense, and in the final stage the team still had to rely on his attack, and he had to use his physical strength to the blade.
In today's football, there are very few offensive players who can not participate in defense. But there are always exceptions. For example, Wen Zhihao at this time. Fraser actually acquiesced in his "laziness" on the field.
"The game has entered the most critical stage, and the temporary calm on the field is just a build-up of strength before the decisive battle between the two sides." He Wei interprets the performance of both sides at this time.
Sure enough, as soon as his words fell, Fellaini, who was in possession of the ball, received a vague command from Mourinho and suddenly strode across the midfield. Schweinsteiger and Marcus Rashford, who farther down the flank, both cut inside and ran into the box.
The on-site commentators were all excited. It's just that the starting point is different. Peja and Calus shouted danger, while Crooka and Davis raised their voices: "The Red Devils kill the chance of the game!" Come on, warriors! ”
Two seconds later, the mood of the commentators on both sides reversed, and Calus exclaimed: "Nice! Sven van Beek nice tackle! The ball is at Win's feet! He accelerated! Vitesse strikes back! ”
A few people in Manchester United's midfield just ran up to assist, but they didn't expect to be quickly beaten back by Vitesse, and they didn't have time to return to the defensive position, and Wen Zhihao passed the midfield with the ball very easily.
At this time, there was a horse in front of him, and after taking two steps forward, he directly played a two-by-one with Rashka who followed up, and passed the little Blind, who was dragging behind, and the whole situation became more enlightened.
The cheers of the Vitesse fans grew louder and louder. But Wen Zhihao had a strange feeling in his heart. During the run, he glanced behind him with his peripheral vision, and a big man with an explosive head who was more than 1.9 meters tall was staring at him at full speed to catch up, with ruthlessness in his eyes.
After a whole battle, Wen Zhihao is very familiar with this figure. Who else could it be but Fellaini.
Wen Zhihao had a feeling in his heart that he was about to get revenge.
Fight for height, compare strength, I am not as good as you. But in terms of speed, you don't deserve to lift my shoes.
I pressed Lao Tzu into two, and now it's my turn!
Come out and mix, you always have to pay it back!
The off-ball cuts of the rest of the team have earned Wen Zhihao a wide space, and he even turned back to Fellaini and smiled wickedly. Then, with his impression of the goal, he shot directly with his feet.
"This foot pass is too ......" Before the dowry could say the word blind, he immediately changed his words, and his voice doubled: "God! It's a sling! Forty meters of ultra-long-distance lob! ”
The moment he touched the ball, Wen Zhihao felt that the feedback from the ball to his feet was very good, so he looked at the ball in the air with anticipation and smiled.
This ball, there can definitely be one!
