Yu Liang, who had been staring at Robben, watched Robben's left shoulder sink, and his heart immediately became vigilant, and he immediately moved his center of gravity to the right side, and at the same time stretched out his foot to intercept the ball.

Although Yu Liang's confrontation ability is poor, his interception ability in the midfield is not bad.

Yu Liang's advance prediction startled Robben. He didn't expect his intentions to be seen through by Yu Liang so easily. Reacting quickly, he immediately pulled the ball back, and after quickly drawing a circle above the ball with his right foot, he knocked forward with the outside instep, trying to use his speed to get rid of Yu Liang.

Yu Liang didn't expect Robben's reaction to be so quick.

After frowning, Yu Liang quickly turned around, and then with a sliding step, his right leg directly stuck Robben's forward route. When he stretched out his right leg to jam Robben, Yu Liang and Robben collided. Confrontation is not Yu Liang's specialty, nor is it Robben's specialty, both of them shook a little when they collided, but Robben has been immersed in professional football for a longer time and can use his body reasonably.

After being hit, Robben took advantage of Yu Liang's impact to jump towards the sideline, and immediately accelerated towards the football after landing. As the two of them confronted each other, Robben lost control of the ball and rolled forward.

In this confrontation, Yu Liang's body just shook a little, the center of gravity was still very stable, and when Robben lost control of the football, Yu Liang kicked his left foot and chased directly towards the football.

Although Robben started later than Yu Liang, Robben's speed was faster, and he was about to catch up with Yu Liang in just one or two steps.

Looking at Robben approaching quickly, Yu Liang immediately lowered his center of gravity, tensed his legs and went directly towards the rolling football sliding shovel.

After destroying the ball out of the bottom line, Yu Liang quickly got up.

At halftime, Yu Liang received the latest task from Alex Ferguson - defense!

In the second half, his role in midfield was to defend.

Protect the backline and provide protection for Scholes.

Chelsea quickly played a touchline ball down the right and Frank Lampard received the ball on the right and sent it straight into the box with a diagonal cross. Drogba, who has been moving near the penalty line, took advantage of the situation and stepped forward in an offside position.

Drogba, who rushed up, was unstoppable, especially since he had already burst into the penalty area and was about to form a one-on-one momentum. The few Chelsea fans in the stadium immediately erupted in cheers.

Just as Drogba caught up with the football, Webb blew the whistle.

Drogba heard Weber's whistle and immediately looked to the wing, only to see the linesman holding the flag firmly.

Offside!

Drogba was offside.

Rio Ferdinand, who had been following him to keep an eye on him, made a small gesture to all the defenders, and after seeing Ferdinand's gesture, the United defender immediately moved a small step forward. It was this small step that put Drogba in an offside position.

Mourinho looked at Drogba, who was in an offside position, frowned slightly, and then quickly walked to the sideline and called Robben, who was closest to him, and whispered a big call into his ear.

At this point, Manchester United were already on the attack.

Paul Scholes' presence made Manchester United's attack more threatening.

After a quick midfield cut, Paul Scholes sent the ball straight to Giggs on the left with a diagonal cross.

Although Chelsea have Claude Makelle and Essien in midfield, their wide defence is still relatively weak due to the change of formation. The king of the left, Ryan Giggs, quickly broke through Chelsea's defence on the flank, dribbled into the 30-metre area, and after observing the situation in front of the Chelsea goal, Giggs crossed with his feet.

Giggs' pass found Wayne Rooney, who also received the pass and broke through Terry's defence on the edge of the box, but he couldn't get away from Terry, who blocked his shot. As a result, Wayne Rooney can only opt for a cross. Outflanked by Saha in the middle of the box, the ball hit Carvalho and bounced to the other side when he shot.

Cristiano Ronaldo on the right was unable to outflank in time and missed the opportunity to open the net.

Immediately there was a sigh of regret in the stadium at Old Trafford.

Amid the regretful sighs of the United fans, Chelsea launched a counterattack.

It's different from the previous attack.

Although this time it was through Arjen Robben who burst on the right flank, but after the breakthrough, Robben neither crossed nor cut inside to shoot and instead gave the ball to Frank Lampard in the flank position.

When Frank Lampard picked up his right foot for a cross, the Reds' back line moved forward a small step as a whole, and Drogba was caught in an offside position again.

However, it was at this point that Frank Lampard, who was about to cross, flicked his ankle and passed the ball to Ballack at the edge of the box. Yu Liang, who was cruising in the front of the penalty area, immediately pounced on Ballack, but Yu Liang was unable to block Ballack's pass.

Ballack picked up his right foot and shook it, then with a slight rub of the outside instep, the ball went directly over the heads of the Manchester United defenders and flew into the right side of the United penalty area.

Shepchenko, who was inserted in the back row, hit the ball on his chest and part, and directly picked up his right foot to complete the shot without waiting for the football to land.

Rumble!

When Shepchenko finished shooting, there was a cheer in Old Trafford.

It wasn't Manchester United fans cheering on Van der Sar's brilliant save.

Shepchenko's shot was so powerful that Van der Sar didn't react at all when it was so close to the goal, and only waved his arms weakly there when the ball flew off the crossbar.

They cheered, cheering Shepchenko.

“F、uck！”

Mourinho, who was standing on the sidelines, watched Shepchenko's shot go over the crossbar and cursed in dissatisfaction.

He didn't like Shepchenko.

Even if he is a Ukrainian nuclear warhead that threatens the continent.

But if you don't like it, you don't like it!

But there is no way, he can't hold on to the team's owner, Abramovich. In the end, Roman Abramovich brought the Ukrainian to Stamford Bridge for a club-record transfer fee of £35 million.

However, Shepchenko's performance in the new season seems to prove that Mourinho's vision is right.

At least Shepchenko hasn't been able to produce the kind of highlights that he did at AC Milan until now.

After venting his frustration, Mourinho stood on the sidelines and watched the game calmly.

Yes, he didn't like Shepchenko.

Shepchenko is not showing a decent performance right now.

But he can't deny Shepchenko's ability, he still has a glimmer of hope that Shepchenko can bring more wins to the team.

At least in the attack just now, Shepchenko showed the attacking awareness of a super center.

But there is a limit to one's patience.

Especially if he doesn't like the person, the limit of patience will be lower.

When Shepchenko's second shot from inside the box went wide of the post, Mourinho couldn't help himself and walked straight back to the bench: "Joe, go warm up, come back in five minutes ......" (to be continued). )
