The repetition of old techniques can have unexpected effects in some specific environments. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Obviously, this approach doesn't work anymore in this game.

After the start of the second half, relying on the advantage of one goal, Cardiff City directly retreated into the half. It's a good idea for them, but it's a bit of a stretch.

And Manchester United did not intend to repeat the old tricks, and after the whistle blew, they launched a strong attack directly.

Yu Liang made a long pass in the backfield, Rooney's header was ferried, Tevez was plugged straight, and Rooney shot directly...... Manchester United's attack was simple and rough, returning to the traditional English football long pass and rush! But can such tactics threaten Cardiff? ”

The answer is obvious, it is not threatening.

Despite Yu Liang's precise long-pass guidance, Rooney, Tevez, Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani were constantly changing positions in the front to impact Cardiff City's defence.

However, such a single attacking approach, coupled with the absence of a strong centre-forward, will hardly pose a threat to Cardiff's defence.

The only threat was when Carlos Tevez combined up with Wayne Rooney up front, and in the end, Rooney's shot went wide of the post.

Knowing that the long pass rush is not much of a threat to Cardiff City, the Manchester United players seem to not hit the south wall and do not look back, as always, they play long pass and hang there.

Yu Liang, who was sitting in the midfield, was also happy to continue to attack with long passes.

"Manchester United are wasting time attacking like this!"

Fifteen minutes passed in the blink of an eye in the second half, and after continuous attacks, Yu Liang began to control the pace of the game.

In the middle of the field, he started to make a constant cross-pass and back, and he made a dispatch.

After a few minutes of adjustment, Yu Liang launched another long pass to attack.

As the ball flew straight towards Wayne Rooney, Cardiff's defensive formation immediately began to shrink, with their defensive focus concentrated in the middle of the penalty area, with huge gaps on both flanks.

After passing the ball, Yu Liang quickly stepped forward.

Meanwhile, on both flanks, Patrice Evra and Brown were quick to get forward.

After unloading the football, Rooney did not choose to turn and break through, but passed back.

The ball returned to Yu Liang's feet again.

At this time, Yu Liang, who was only more than 30 meters away from the goal, could make a long shot.

However, he did not choose to shoot from distance, and when the Cardiff City player pounced on him, Yu Liang picked up a pass, and the ball flew over the defender's head and flew directly into the penalty area.

Rooney, who had completed the return pass earlier, carried the opposing defender and successfully burst into the penalty area.

After stretching out his foot to unload Yu Liang's pass, Rooney adjusted slightly and raised his foot to pump the ball hard.

Mixed with crumbs of turf, the football whistled into the goal, and the goalkeeper of Cardiff City did not react at all!

“goal！ Wayne Rooney, another goal to help Manchester United equalize the score! ”

There was a cheer in the new Wembley Stadium, and the red wave continued to roll in the stands.

Rooney still didn't celebrate, he ran into the net again, picked the ball out, put it in the centre circle, then returned to his own half to celebrate briefly with his team-mates, and waited there for the game to resume.

Cardiff City's players all looked to their manager on the sidelines.

Is it defense or offense now?

The score is tied, is there any point in holding on?

David Jones (Cardiff City manager) still opted for defense!

He wants to drag the game to extra-time and then to penalties so they still have the hope of lifting the trophy.

David Jones was a little too optimistic, though, and he underestimated United's determination.

With a Champions League final just a week away, Ferguson clearly doesn't want the game to be dragged to penalties.

This will take more energy out of the players.

So when he saw Cardiff continuing to defend stubbornly, he directly pushed Pique, who is 1.92 meters tall, to the front line and added a fulcrum in the opponent's penalty area.

Ferguson's adjustment is not bad.

With Pique acting as a fulcrum in the box, Rooney and Tevez were directly freed up.

In the 78th minute, Manchester United used Pique to score a goal to overtake the score.

The attacking routine was not much different from Rooney's second goal earlier. Yu Liang made a long pass, Pique's header was ferried, and Rooney knocked back. When Yu Liang received the ball, the Cardiff City players immediately strengthened the defense in the middle, and a large gap was formed on the side.

Yu Liang took advantage of the situation and divided the sides.

By the time the Cardiff players reacted, it was too late, and Ronaldo received the ball and burst straight into the box.

In the face of the reacting defenders, Ronaldo continued to cycle and crossed, a low flat ball was crossed, and Pique pushed it into the net.

Manchester United took the lead 3-2 and directly ended Cardiff City's dream of winning the FA Cup.

With just a dozen minutes to go, David Jones didn't want to give up, and after making two substitutions in a row, Cardiff City went on the attack after almost the full game.

But David Jones ignored the inner changes in the players.

If they take advantage of the win in two cities, they may also use the morale after the goal to create some threat to Manchester United.

What now?

It was when morale was exhausted that their attack was the equivalent of scratching their boots for United, without the slightest threat.

Instead, it gave United a good chance to fight back.

In the 82nd minute, Yu Liang intercepted in the midfield, and assisted Ronaldo to complete the goal with a long oblique pass.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who broke through on the side, volleyed into the near corner after bursting into the penalty area to make the score 4-2.

At this point, there was not much time left before the end of the game, and Cardiff City simply gave up the game.

Manchester United also closed the game and the score was kept 4-2 until the end.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the match, the new Wembley Stadium turned red and all the United fans cheered in the stands.

Amid the cheers of Manchester United fans, the award ceremony began.

The first to walk on the podium was the Manchester United coaching staff, who took the podium one after the members of the coaching staff received the winner's medal and received the medal from the presenter.

When everyone has received their championship medals, the exciting time has arrived.

The trophy was handed to Manchester United's captain Rio Ferdinand, and the stadium immediately resounded with a familiar melody - we are the champions!

In the thunderous stadium, streamers erupted.

When he was about to raise the trophy to celebrate, Ferdinand seemed to think of something and pulled Yu Liang to his side, "Come on!" Dedicate this championship trophy to the people in the disaster area! Hopefully football will bring them joy! ”

"Thank you!"

Taking over the trophy from Rio Ferdinand, Yu Liang was held high above his head surrounded by his teammates.

Champions, dedicated to you! One is not enough, and in a week's time, I'll dedicate another one to you!

Yu Liang, who was holding the trophy high, looked at the night sky and muttered.

Later, Yu Liang and his teammates celebrated the second championship trophy of the year - the FA Cup championship in the stadium! (To be continued.) )
