Chapter 15: Shiny Strikes Back

"Do you think Yu Liang will continue to play well over the weekend?"

This is a questionnaire conducted by Sky Sports after the end of the 30th round of the Premier League. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

With his outstanding performance in the previous seasons, Yu Liang is basically a household name in the Premier League, so the scope of this questionnaire is also very large, almost all over England.

In a survey of 2,000 people, 40% felt that Yu Liang would not be able to continue his excellent form in the weekend's races.

Nearly half of those 40 per cent are United fans, and the result is somewhat unexpected.

When Yu Liang got the news from a Sky Sports reporter, he was also shocked. It can be seen that his poor performance for most of the season has lost the trust of Manchester United fans. It's no wonder why Ferguson didn't give him a starting spot.

Sitting on the bench, Yu Liang ushered in the eighth England national derby in his career.

Known as the England National Derby, it naturally attracts much attention, so this game is also the highlight of this round of the Premier League, and the Old Trafford stadium is full. Sitting on the bench at the moment, Yu Liang no longer has the excitement of joining Manchester United for the first time, and many things have been experienced, and it will become relatively dull, even if this is a national derby, in Yu Liang's eyes, it is just an ordinary league.

For Yu Liang, it was an ordinary league game, but for Benitez, it was a crucial match.

Since taking charge of Liverpool in 2005, Rafael Benitez has led Liverpool to a great deal of success in cup competitions, which has earned him a reputation as the king of the cup. But they have won the league trophy for a few seasons, and this is the one thing he regrets the most. This season, due to injuries and other reasons, the team's results are very unsatisfactory. Not only did they fail to reach the Champions League in the league, but they also went out early in Europe.

Benitez, who is under tremendous pressure, has already felt that this may be the last England derby of his managerial career. He doesn't want to leave here as a loser, and with few league games left, a win over United looks a real thing. Because it's been a long, long time since they've doubled in a single season.

"Attack, attack......"

After the start of the game, Benitez, who was not enthusiastic enough, commanded the game passionately on the sidelines.

Under Benitez's passionate command, Liverpool dominated the game, and Glenn Johnson opened the ball through the Manchester United defence and sent the ball into the Manchester United penalty area. Torres shook off the defenders behind him with a lunge and chased after the football. Just as the Liverpudlians were about to celebrate their goal, a shrill whistle blew.

Offside!

The linesman raised the flag very resolutely.

Manchester United fans were relieved, and Yu Liang, who was sitting on the bench, also breathed a sigh of relief. However, Liverpool's formation of such a threatening attack in the opening game is enough to show that this game will be very difficult. Yu Liang couldn't help but start worrying about the team. But on second thought, if you can help the team beat Liverpool in such a difficult game, wouldn't it be even louder for the media?

Just when Yu Liang was thinking nonsense, Liverpool launched an offensive again.

Torres made a steal in midfield and passed to Gerrard, Gerrard made a direct pass, Kuyt crossed from near the baseline, and the unguarded Torres headed home in the box to make it 1-0 and give Liverpool the lead on the road.

"Uncle's!"

Yu Liang came back to his senses and looked at the Liverpool players who were celebrating in some surprise on the field. He didn't expect that what he expected really happened, and after scolding secretly, Yu Liang's brows tightened.

Although he wants the game to be more difficult, so that he can go on the field to help the team beat the opponent, and it seems that he is more valuable. But this is just a fantasy, after all, being down by one goal makes them more passive. If in such a situation, the performance on the field is average, then it will be a black pot again.

Seven minutes later, Yu Liang breathed a sigh of relief.

After a series of counter-attacks, United finally equalised seven minutes later. Valencia's ribs broke through and caused a defensive foul on Mascherano to win a penalty. After Rooney's penalty was saved, he fired into the net to make it 1-1.

After the equaliser, Manchester United at home were more demoralized and pressed Liverpool at every turn, but unfortunately they were unable to extend the score before the end of the first half.

After the first half of the game, Yu Liang was looking forward to the opportunity to play.

Ferguson said that he would give Yu Liang a chance, and naturally he would not break his promise. However, Yu Liang was not replaced at the beginning of the second half, but 10 minutes after the start of the second half, Yu Liang was replaced.

As in the first half, the second half was still fierce.

However, in the fierce scramble, the Manchester United team, which had the advantage of home field, quickly gained the upper hand, and Yu Liang's appearance largely eliminated this advantage of the Manchester United team. Although there is no run-in problem between them, it has interrupted the previous smooth operation. This gives Liverpool a chance. They put the breakthrough point on Yu Liang's body.

As soon as he came on the court, Yu Liang was broken through by Gerrard in a one-on-one situation.

"Haha, seeing that the vast majority of fans are right, Yu Liang really didn't show the excellent form of the last game!"

"Ha, man, I think you should keep your mouth shut! You have to know that he is playing! ”

As Yu Liang's first fan, Andy Gray can't get used to others teasing Yu Liang there. However, for the most part this season, he chose to be silent there, after all, Yu Liang's performance was there.

But not now!

It was his excellent performance in the last game that helped Manchester United beat Fulham, and now he has just been broken through by Gerrard, so why is it certain that Yu Liang will perform badly in the next time?

The narrator, who was partnered with Andy Gray, chose to remain silent.

Because in the stadium, Yu Liang, who was broken through by Gerrard, has completed the remediation work, and it is very perfect. Straight from Gerrard's feet, the counter-steal was successful.

"Haha, well done!"

Andy Gray was laughing insolently and waving his fists as if he were demonstrating with his partner.

Yu Liang, who completed the counter-robbery, quickly launched a counterattack.

Similar to the counterattack when Liverpool scored, Yu Liang also made a direct pass to Valencia on the side. After Valencia, who broke through to the near baseline, attracted the defense, they did not choose to cross, but returned to Yu Liang, who was pulled to the side. Yu Liang, who was temporarily unguarded, quickly observed the situation at the front of the penalty area, and immediately crossed with his feet. The ball went around the head of the defender and came to the other side of the penalty area, where it found the South Korean Park Ji-sung, who was cutting forward.

Park Ji-sung, who was quickly moving forward, didn't expect the football to come so quickly, so he instinctively pushed it with his head in a hurry. Although the goal was not able to top the power, but the victory was tricky from the angle, although Liverpool goalkeeper Reina made the right judgment, but could not touch the football, 2-1 Manchester United overtook the score.

"Wow wow...... GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! ”

Andy Gray's passionate roar has spread throughout thousands of households.

"Haha, do you see? Man, this is Yu Liang, this is the young man you have been teasing, how is it, do you feel that your face is hot? ”

After sneering at his partner, Andy Gray continued to give Yu Liang words of praise.

After assisting Park Ji-sung to score a goal, Yu Liang was more excited than Park Ji-sung, rushed to the stands and Yu Liang jumped up and turned his back, and then pointed to the name on his jersey with both hands. The Manchester United fans in the stands were very cooperative, chanting Yu Liang's name.

After the fans chanted, Yu Liang returned to the stadium unsatisfied.

The assists are good, but the comebacks aren't shining enough.
