Chapter 63: Remember the name of the scorer
“goal――goal――goal――goal――goal――goal――goal――goal――goal――”
Andy Gray's excited cries reached the ears of the fans who were watching the game on television.
In the bar where Manchester City fans gathered, there was instant jubilation. They were still frowning just now, and they were immediately overjoyed.
"Come, I've invited you to drink today, brothers, drink!"
"This goal is so relieving, those guys at Manchester United would never have thought that it was us who scored first!"
"Great, just do it, kill Manchester United!"
"I'll just say that this Chinese is powerful, and that's what I thought when he took office."
"Come on, don't blow it. You smashed the glass of the Wang family, right? ”
The atmosphere in the bar where several Manchester City fans gathered exploded instantly. If it weren't for the fact that the house of the bar was relatively sturdy, I don't know if the roof would have been lifted off by these alcoholic, hormonal-overproducing guys.
And even crazier than the bar is, of course, the Etihad Stadium.
The Etihad Stadium can only accommodate more than 40,000 people, which is not a large number, but the sound they made at the moment of scoring the goal was powerful enough.
The Etihad Stadium is like a silent volcano that erupts without warning.
From Mendieta's dribbling of the ball, the volcano began to brew, and Robinho's rainbow pass took the atmosphere to another high when the goal came...... Madness ensues.
As far as the eye can see, the entire blue grandstand looks like violently tumbling lava. The voices and movements of the fans all show the madness in the stadium at the moment. And that small piece of red seems to be swallowed up by this blue magma at any time.
Of course, there are crazier than the fans.
After making sure that the ball had scored, Wang Xuan rushed directly to the corner kick area, pulled out the corner flagpole and threw the corner flagpole to the ground.
Almost after the last round of the league, Wang Xuan's emotions were suppressed until this moment. This time, even the players who wanted to celebrate with him didn't catch him, and he stood by the corner flag area, roaring and waving his fists.
The close-up shot never left Wang Xuan, and Wang Xuan's celebration continued to drive the atmosphere of the scene.
"The manager is young, it's different. It's a crazy celebration. ”
"Hopefully he'll not get so excited about this goal that he'll mess around."
Andy Gray and Martin Taylor have calmed down their passion, and at the moment they are watching the broadcast camera to make fun of Wang Xuan's crazy celebration.
The celebration was too long, and the referee had to intervene. The referee urged the Manchester City players to hurry back to their positions to prepare for kick-off, while the fourth official came to Wang Xuan and persuaded him to return to the coach's box.
Wang Xuan tried to contain his emotions, and when he returned to the coach's box, he found that the old gentleman Ferguson didn't know when he walked to the sidelines.
"Come to think of it, the current situation has exceeded the old man's expectations!" Wang Xuan clenched his fists excitedly, "What is beyond your expectations is still to come!" "He seemed confident.
Wang Xuan did have something beyond Ferguson's expectations, in fact, this goal was also something Wang Xuan didn't expect, and this goal was a surprise for him. However, taking the lead without revealing the hole cards is definitely a good thing for Wang Xuan.
Just now, while Manchester City was celebrating, Ferguson had already taken the opportunity to explain. Therefore, Manchester United did not lose an inch because of falling behind, and they still maintained the attacking rhythm just now.
Seeing that Manchester United was almost not affected, Wang Xuan patted his head and thought that he should also take the opportunity to explain the rhythm of the game behind the players just now.
"We have to learn a lesson next time, we can't celebrate too much!" Wang Xuan said to himself secretly in his heart.
Wang Xuan immediately shouted twice at the field and made two gestures. After making sure that most of the players saw his gestures, Wang Xuan stopped his movements and put his hands in his pockets again.
Wang Xuan's gesture Manchester City players all understand that it means to continue to stabilize the defense.
The goal did not allow City to regain their disadvantage on the pitch and they almost reverted to their previous form of passive defence. The only difference, though, was that United began to guard against Manchester City's counter-attacks, especially Mendieta.
The fans were still frustrated to see such a scene, but this time they were hopeful. After all, their team is ahead.
The fans at the Etihad Stadium started singing and cheering for the home team's defence!
Manchester City, who had a goal ahead, set up a bucket formation in front of their own penalty area, and the combined bombardment of Manchester United's trident never really knocked on Manchester City's door.
Manchester City's defence is very layered and they are very capable at the back. If they continue to play at this pace, it will be difficult for United to find the back of the net. But on the football field, the individual abilities of superstars often seem particularly important at this time. One flash of that superstar might be able to change the situation and rhythm on the field.
Manchester United's front three have two of them known as one of the best footballers in the world. Their shine will not be overshadowed by their opponents, nor will they be overshadowed by their own team's established tactics.
Tevez's forced break was blocked by Vincent Kompany and the ball was disrupted out of the box, while Rooney grabbed the first spot and hit with his feet. Lu Xiaopang's long-range shot actually dodged the "vast sea of people" in the penalty area and went straight to the goal, but fortunately, Hart reacted quickly and blocked the ball. Baines immediately kicked the ball out of the box as soon as he got along, trying to break it off the touchline and slow down the tempo.
But the ball is fast, but not very high. In general, it's not a big problem. But at this moment, a red figure suddenly appeared behind the ball, changing the direction of the ball's flight.
Manchester City's players are ready to breathe a sigh of relief and wait for Manchester United to send the touchline ball! Who would have thought that Cristiano Ronaldo would stop the ball in front of the touchline?
He leaped high and almost stopped the ball with his handsome face. After landing, Ronaldo ignored the hotness on his face, he quickly caught up with the ball to control the ball, and then faced Baines, who was rushing up, his body shook twice and suddenly swung under his feet. With barely any swing in his upper body, he slammed the ball from the back of his left heel to the front of the right.
Baines was startled and wanted to quickly turn around and chase after him, but the consequence of the instant change of center of gravity was that he sat on the ground.
Cristiano Ronaldo quickly burst into the box again, and this time City's defence was completely disrupted. Cristiano Ronaldo made a feint in the penalty area, then rubbed the ball and kicked it hard with his right foot.
At such a close distance, Joe Hart barely reacted.
In the 39th minute of the game, Cristiano Ronaldo equalized for Manchester United.
After scoring the goal, Ronaldo shook off his teammates behind him and ran to the sidelines, lifting his shirt. The T-shirt inside his shirt reads: "Remember the name of the goalscorer, Cristiano Ronaldo!" ”
