Chapter 761: No One Expected
"CCTV, CCTV, now live for you is the 2008-2009 English FA Cup final, the referee has blown the whistle for the start of the game, Manchester United is wearing their traditional red shirt and white pants, attacking from the right side of the camera, while Chelsea is wearing a blue shirt and blue pants, attacking from the left side of the camera to the right, and now the 36-year-old veteran Ryan Giggs is in possession......"
Zhan Jun, who was in charge of commenting on the FA Cup final, said.
Manchester United, who kicked off first, did not appear to be impatient, but escorted the ball to the front of the pitch through guò layers of advancement.
After a few turns, Cristiano Ronaldo, who was on the left, received Rooney's ball in the middle, and then showed his proud foot skills at the new Wembley Stadium, swaying Ivanovic a little unsteadily on his bike in succession.
Mikel, who assisted in the defense in the middle, decisively came from the side, Cristiano Ronaldo suddenly stopped with both feet, and slammed the ball sideways with his left heel, Mikel didn't have time to brake, and could only watch Cristiano Ronaldo shake off the angle and try a long shot directly from about 28 points away from the goal.
"- Cristiano Ronaldo!"
The MUTV commentator shouted.
The sudden eruption of chanting from the Manchester United fans in the stands also temporarily drowned out the voices of the Chelsea fans.
Cristiano Ronaldo's right foot was hitting the lower middle of the ball with the instep of his foot, only to hear a muffled 'bang', the football flew into the air like a cannonball, Terry, who jumped sideways to block it, did not block the ball, and the ball continued to fly towards the goal.
Cech's pupils shrank suddenly, and his feet popped out like springs squeezed to the extreme.
Worst!
A few seconds later, a 'clang' rang through the new Wembley Stadium and the ball hit the top edge of the crossbar and flew towards the second-floor stands.
Suddenly, a huge exclamation erupted in the stands.
Chelsea fans breathed a sigh of relief, while United fans cursed indignantly to ease their frustration.
"Cristiano Ronaldo's long-range shot was a pity!!" Lineker was also impressed by the brilliant long-range shot.
"The game has just started, Cristiano Ronaldo told everyone present with a long-range shot that he is in good shape!"
"Wonderful! Fantastic long shot! ”
Less than a minute into the game, Cristiano Ronaldo's long-range shot from the edge of the flank to the middle was a wake-up call for Chelsea, and it also put a little pressure on Iro, who has always brought the first wave of highs and lows in the usual contests.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who was only 1/3 football away from the goal, was very depressed, holding his head in his hands and dragging his hair, and roared at the new Wembley Stadium.
Interestingly, the live director gave the camera to Iroh's face.
Zhan Jun watched the wonderful slow-motion replay, and his voice changed: "Manchester United's attack is very good, Cristiano Ronaldo scored a goal by a fraction of a millimeter in a series of breakthroughs on the wing, and now the camera is on Elo, I believe everyone wants him to be colored now, right?" ”
Really!
After two minutes, Iroh returned to color.
In the third minute, Iello did not choose to break through on his own, but took the ball forward with a series of passes from his teammates, and about 35 meters from Van der Sar's goal, he met his first defender, Fletcher.
However, Ailo did not choose to break through, but the outside of his right foot flicked the ball to the right, and Modric, who was inserted behind, took the ball forward, and Fletcher, who was originally arranged to mark and defend in the 30-meter area of Ailo's side, had to twist and chase after him, but at this moment, Modric, who was forward, suddenly knocked the ball back with his right heel.
By the time Ryan Giggs realised that Iroh was going to shoot from distance, it was too late.
Iello kept the ball and fired a powerful long-range shot from about 32 yards in front of the United goal.
Van der Sar, who was blasted into the air by a broken finger by Iello in the Carabao Cup final two months ago, did not dare to rub his fingers this time, but instead made a fist, the ball changed direction, brushed the outside edge of the goal post on the right side and flew off the bottom line, and then hit the billboard behind the goal with a muffled sound.
The sky above the new Wembley Stadium erupted in a huge exclamation.
Although Eilo's long-range shot was not as tricky as Cristiano Ronaldo's angle, it was more powerful.
"After two months of recuperation, Van der Sar is back to his peak form! Hit the ball out with great ease! ”
The local Manchester commentator shouted.
Van der Sar didn't land as easily as everyone thought, he lowered his head and turned the wrist that had just hit the ball, feeling a little numb.
※※※
After a wonderful long-range shot by Cristiano Ronaldo and Elo, the two sides of the game have entered the game in advance.
In the first ten minutes, both sides of the game were very active, and there was no situation where one side defended with all its strength and the other side attacked with all its might, but very frequent back and forth, like an open attack, which made the fans who came to the scene watch the high tide.
Of course, this can only happen when the team they support is attacking, and when the team they support is under attack, they are only worried.
Ten minutes later, the tempo of the game slowed down.
In fact, they know very well in their hearts that this FA Cup final is just a preview of the Champions League final in half a month, and it is impossible to play too many new tactics.
In this case, both sides are heavy in the midfield, and there are only a few people involved in the attack, such as the most common full-back tactics in the Premier League is difficult to see in this game, because Mourinho and Ferguson are very afraid of the speed of the opponent's counterattack, once broken, then it is likely to cause irreparable damage.
However, from the perspective of defense during this time, it is Chelsea under Jose Mourinho who do better, and he is fundamentally different from Ferguson when defending.
Ferguson asked Fletcher to be sure to mark one-on-one after Iello entered the 30-meter defensive zone, while Mourinho asked the defender Cristiano Ronaldo to do not, still choosing to defend in the zone and using the team's defense as a whole to defend.
So there is nothing to see other than Ielo and Cristiano Ronaldo using their individual abilities to create opportunities.
The game became a stalemate.
"The two teams were obviously preparing for the Champions League final in half a month, and they didn't play at all at all, and the excitement alone was not even as exciting as the Carabao Cup final two months ago, and that game was at least full of fire, you come and go." Lineker took the opportunity to say: "But then again, the Champions League is more important than the FA Cup winner! ”
"But this FA Cup championship is also an important deposit, Manchester United has lost to Chelsea League Cup and league champions this season, so this FA Cup final and the Champions League final half a month later are decisive battles that cannot be lost, I believe Sir Alex Ferguson will not let go lightly, and Mourinho and Ai have said at the beginning of the season to defend all the titles won last season, to sum up, both sides are unlikely to give up this game, for this stalemate state, it is estimated that they will be targeted before the game......"
Just as Lineker was talking, Iello pulled out of the 30-meter defensive area was noticed by Modric and passed the ball early.
Iello had already figured out Fletcher's defensive strategy against him in the previous ten minutes, so he stepped on it with both feet and pulled it to make a Marseille slalom facing the United goal.
Chelsea fans in the stands saw Iroh's move and subconsciously chanted Iroh's name.
One of them, Chelsea's die-hard fan group 'Blue Souls', led by their leader, sang the 'Song of Ai'
Immediately, Iello took the ball forward, and with a distance of two meters from Fletcher, he started to pedal the bicycle with both feet in succession, and Fletcher not only retreated with a sluggish small step.
When Iroh stepped on the fifth bicycle, his left foot suddenly sank, Fletcher subconsciously stretched out his foot to break the ball, but Iroh used the outside of his right foot to flick the ball to the right, and then accelerated!
"Breakthrough!"
At Andy Gray's yell, Iroh finally dodged Fletcher's defense.
Arrow's breakthrough was like a wake-up call for Manchester United's defence, with Carrick and Ryan Giggs, who were assisting in the middle, rushing in unison.
In the face of the two of them coming forward to defend, Iro, who had just picked up the speed, suddenly made an emergency stop, and then gently flicked the outside of his right foot to the right, and Carrick and Giggs subconsciously followed the emergency stop.
Iroh then stabbed the ball into the space between them before they could make a defensive move, and suddenly started to go around Carrick's right side.
Anelka, who was stuck in position, flicked the ball with the outside of her right foot and sent it just in time to get the ball to Iroh's forward path.
Before Vidic could blame the midfielder who let Ailo come over, he rushed straight up, and no one dared to let Ailo take the ball without pressure at about twenty-five meters.
As a result, Iello passed the ball back to Anelka, who willingly made another wall and bounced the ball into the space behind Vidic.
Vidic knows what to do next even if he thinks about the problem with his toes at this time, foul!
But what he didn't expect was that Ielo spared a big turn early after passing the ball, and Vidic turned too late when he led the ball straight into the box.
Ferguson, who was standing on the field, was stunned, what he really didn't expect was that two consecutive two-to-two would finish the entire backline......
