Chapter 577: Prologue to the Counterattack

Li Yi, as a very traditional center forward, has always been a grabber in the penalty area, as well as his pair of legs that often hit super long-range shots and are very reliable.

Such a Li Yi suddenly pulled back to near the midfield, such a zone far away from the threat area of his own side, it is obvious that such a Li Yi cannot attract enough attention from Manchester United's side, even if he is Li Yi.

However, when Li Yi was slightly ignored, probably the Manchester United players forgot that in fact, as early as last season, Crystal Palace was facing a shortage of personnel, especially in the forward position, when the manpower was stretched, Li Yi made a few cameo appearances in the front midfield.

Well, although in those games, Li Yi did not score, nor scored, but Li Yi did a very good job of his own offensive tandem, to tell the truth, if Li Yi is willing to sacrifice data, perhaps, his final achievement will not be much worse than now not to 2010, career has not reached the peak of Sneijder.

is such a Li Yi, who was selectively ignored by Manchester United players, and it is foreseeable that Manchester United's cup is being staged.

A regular stop of the ball, stopping Sissoko's pass at his feet, Li Yi, who knew that his skills at his feet were not good, had no intention of showing any footwork or anything. Besides, there's no time on the field right now, is there?

Turning around, raising the two index fingers of his right hand, Li Yi began his performance this time when both Manchester United and Crystal Palace players were confused.

Wait, Li Yi made a gesture, it is obvious what tactics he wants to play, as the opponent of Crystal Palace, it is normal for the Manchester United team not to understand, but the Crystal Palace players don't understand, what is not right?

If there really is such a tactic to confuse your teammates together, can it still be called a tactic?

Don't forget, the reason why tactics are called tactics, then Li Yi definitely needs the support of his teammates, if his teammates don't understand what Li Yi means, how to cooperate with Li Yi? How can such a tactic be used?

Well, the previous sentence is a bit absolute, Li Yi made this gesture, and there are still people in the Crystal Palace team who understand, but this number of people who understand only exists within the range of a few people.

After all, in normal training, Li Yi has never tried to play in the position of the front midfield, in such a situation, how can there be tactics when Li Yi is the front midfield?

Speaking of which, on Friedman's side, there is really no information that Li Yi played this seemingly No. 2 tactic, but in fact, there is such a small story between Li Yi, Bell and Modric.

What is the specific little story, I won't repeat it here, in short, one day after the training, a whim, the three people who practiced together, idle egg pain, by Modric, came up with such a tactic, and then, in fact, the executor and initiation point of the tactic is Modric, but because Modric is not on the field now, Li Yi overstepped his position and exercised Modric's power.

The team really can't open the situation, Li Yi has to be so dangerous, as for this tactic, whether it can play its due effect, now, in Li Yi's view, the key is not in himself, but in the field at this time, the only possibility to understand his Gareth Bell.

So, can Bell understand Li Yi's intentions in time and respond in a timely manner?

Bell felt a lot of pressure on Li Yi to give him such high hopes, but on the field, Bell, who has never dropped the chain, faced this problem and made a very positive response in his heart.

And when Bale put his return on the field, the defenders of the Manchester United team easily spotted Bale, who was rooted on the flanks and almost never cut inside, suddenly hit the middle of the pitch without the ball.

Bale, a wide player, suddenly came to the middle of the field, the most densely populated middle, and Li Yi's retreat, Bale's strange behavior, at least for now, is not enough to attract the attention of Manchester United.

After all, Bell's characteristics, they have long been familiar with it. Fast speed, good explosiveness, and born a wing maniac.

But his technical characteristics are also doomed, and Bell has been rooted on the side all his life.

Because, with Bale's technical characteristics, if you put him in the middle of the pitch, in the most crowded area, he will certainly not do any useful help to the team, at least, in the eyes of the United players.

I have to say that it can't be talked about, but at least, this time when defending, the caution of the Manchester United players is not enough.

When an unreasonable thing happens, you think it's unreasonable, ignore it, and that's it.

But now, on the side of Crystal Palace, there are suddenly two unreasonable situations at the same time - Li Yi retreated, and Bale went to the middle.

When the unreasonable meets the unreasonable, then the matter becomes very reasonable.

Almost as soon as Bale saw his gesture and rushed to the middle of the penalty area to stand up, he kept standing in place with the ball, and no one on Manchester United's side stepped forward to force it, and on the field, Li Yi, who seemed to have nothing to do, moved!

The outside of his right foot sent the ball forward, and Li Yi used a breakthrough similar to Bale to start this small tactic between him and Bale.

If Li Yi, who has retreated, does not need to invest too much energy on Manchester United's side to pay attention, now, when Li Yi starts to advance with the ball, Manchester United cannot sit idly by.

In fact, Manchester United, not only did not sit idly by, but doubled their attention.

Rooney and Nani, these two Ni, when Li Yi started to run wildly with the ball, they immediately weaved an encirclement and put it on Li Yi's head.

However, before Rooney and Nani came to him, he only took one step to the ball, and after catching up with the ball, Li Yi kicked the ball and kicked the ball to the middle of the court.

Okay! If before, Manchester United still didn't know much about the No. 2 tactics that seemed to be the same thing before Bale and Li Yi, now, they have roughly guessed the content of Li Yi's tactics - nothing more than using Li Yi and Bale to play a small cooperation between the two, that's all.

In the face of such tactics, Manchester United's rich group of players naturally will not have any worries in it, and when Bale receives the ball, soon, Manchester United will divide 2 defenders and kill Bale.

At the same time, Rooney and Nani, who failed to wrap before, were not idle. If it was just a simple 2-by-2, Li Yi didn't need to make such a big deal before, so although it is not clear what it is, it is obvious that the cooperation between Li Yi and Bell will have a follow-up.

However, as the saying goes, between Li Yi and Bale, no matter what tactics you have, what kind of cooperation, Rooney and Nani know one thing very well, that is, as long as they can successfully completely limit the tactical initiation point, and Li Yi, who must also be the most important part of the tactics, then no matter what Li Yi's tactics are, they will definitely be stillborn.

I have to say that although they are not defensive players, there is nothing wrong with the calculation of Rooney and Nani.

It is true that if the two of them can successfully strangle Li Yi 2V1 in this ball, then the so-called tactics of Li Yi and Bell will become a joke.

It's just that Li Yi, who has accelerated and is running wildly, can the two people who are still standing in place be able to stop him?

If there is a person between Rooney and Nani who can throw away all the baggage and hug Li Yi to the ground at the first time after Li Yi passes the ball, he will definitely be able to stop Li Yi's next madness, but it is a pity that he thinks that 2V1 is not needed, at least at the beginning, Rooney and Nani, who do not need tactical fouls, missed the best opportunity to destroy Li Yi's tactics.
