Chapter Seventy-Five: The Direction of the Wind
Boya sat in the box, with Ariel and Cinderella. ±≦
Although it is not exactly an authentic fan, this does not prevent the three women who have not seen each other for a while from turning the box into a stage. Boya is as cold as ever, Cinderella has begun to learn to complain about life with her best friend, and as for Ariel, from the very beginning, she has been despising the two of them and forgetting their friends......
Fortunately, a few people finally knew what they were here to do today, and after the game started, they focused on the court. It is said that insiders look at the doorway, and laymen look at the liveliness. For Cinderella, perhaps the star-studded theatrical performances before the start of the game attracted her attention, while Ariel, who had been nurtured by football for nearly two seasons, began to explain some football knowledge to the other two from time to time, and as for Boya, she was always a quiet listener, and then looked to the court below......
Love is blind.
This is a wise saying.
No matter how much Boya reminded herself in her heart that she should focus more on the court, her eyes still unconsciously glanced at the figure on the sidelines.
The first time I watched him play was an ordinary La Liga match, when he was only the acting manager of Atletico Madrid, and the opponent Boya still remembers very well, it was Huelva.
The second time I watched his game, it was already an important game, when he was already the regular manager of Malaga, and the opponent was heavier, the Spanish Copa del Rey final, Barcelona.
And now, he stands at the top of Europe and is the idol of at least half of the city of Manchester.
Is this an inspirational drama? Perhaps, but it's more of a miracle of no small size.
Boya suddenly turned around and took the telescope she had prepared in the box, and then raised it in front of her beautiful eyes, the original distance seemed to disappear all at once, only a little adjustment, the face she had gradually become familiar with was already close in front of her. It seems to be delicate, and under this seemingly calm face, a kind of love called solemnity is spreading.
The game came to the 61st minute, and after the unexpected shot in the opening period, Manchester City did not get any good chances, but their opponents Manchester United, after escaping the game, plus the header that had just forced Joe Hart to make a wonderful save, was the third time that Linsen had sweated in his heart.
But what made Lin Sen's heart frown even more was that at the same time that the other party began to grab his pigtails frequently. Their own team still failed to catch the opponent's pigtails.
If the draw in the first half proved that both teams did a good job of preparing for the game, then the second half was undoubtedly a test of the manager's ability to command on the spot. Linson didn't know what Ferguson said at half-time, but it was clear that Ferguson had found City's soft underbelly.
United's three threats, the first came in the 49th minute, less than three minutes after City's menaceous shots, when Ryan Giggs, who had been in the middle of the game, suddenly pulled to the left and joined up with Park Ji-sung. Then with a 45-degree cross, Hernandez found the gap in the City backline, and he appeared like a civet cat and fired a close-range shot just wide of the back of the net.
This time the shot on goal. Andy Gray thought it was Manchester United who had just shot Manchester City back in the air.
The second threat, born in the 55th minute, was Rooney, who was nominally one of Manchester United's two strikers in this game, and once again took the initiative to retreat to the midfield to get the ball. And this time, after Lu Xiaopang received the ball near the center circle, he deducted Yaya Toure and Vidal's two presses in succession. The ball was sent to the feet of Valencia on the right side very accurately, due to the lack of support from teammates, Baines did not dare to make a desperate bet, but faced the aggressive Valencia and fought and retreated, waiting for support, but Valencia did not plan to break through him this time, after successfully "paralyzing" Baines, a sharp stop turned around, sent the ball back to the middle again, and Rooney, who had long been following him, hit a high-quality long-range shot on the edge of the penalty area.
Joe Hart, who had tried his best but couldn't touch the ball, almost thought it was going to go in, but in the end, the post helped City once.
And then, it's the third time......
What is your own problem?
Lin Sen is well aware that the problem lies in the central defenders.
Somewhat similar to Manchester United's centre-back combination, Manchester City's original main centre-back combination of David Luiz and Kompany was considered by the British media to be the current top three in England this season and is expected to compete for the best combination in the future, but David Luiz can only watch his teammates fight the pitch with Suarez in the stands, and the person who took his place, Linson finally chose the latter between Dunn and Cahill.
Because in the last two games, Cahill showed a better competitive state than Dunn, but this does not mean that Cahill is a perfect replacement for David Luiz, compared with David Luiz, whether it is stature or height, Cahill is not much different, but, Cahill does not have the technical ability of the future Brazilian captain, of course, this is the talent that many Brazilian defenders bring, and they can't force it.
Originally, Manchester City's center-back combination, David Luiz was responsible for the up-and-coming, Kompany was responsible for the fill-in, and the two of them worked together happily, and in many cases, David Luiz did not only play the role of a central defender in Manchester City's defense, he was often the starting point of Manchester City's counter-attack, but now, it is undoubtedly a luxury to want Cahill to directly fill the role of David Luiz.
Not only is it extravagant, but Cahill's lack of tacit understanding with Kompany is also a hidden danger.
And now it seems that Ferguson has set his sights on this hidden danger.
What can Lin Sen do? Do your best to obey the destiny of heaven.
In addition to explaining that the back should pay special attention to protection, he can only trust his teammates, because this is originally a choice question, and he has already made a choice, in this regard, any whimsical ideas are useless.
At the moment, Cahill on the field is excited, but Linson is a little worried off the field.
It's good that players are excited, but excitement and nervousness are actually only a thin line, not to mention that the central defenders are too excited, which is sometimes not a good thing. The other party's three threats, each of which has more or less something to do with Cahill, although they all turned the tide in the end, no one can guarantee that there will not be a fourth, but there are no more than three sentences, sometimes you can't believe it.
Seeing Lin Sen return to the coach's seat, Kidd asked softly: "Adjustment?" ”
Obviously, Kidd also smelled danger, of course, he didn't think as much as Lin Sen, but, in fifteen minutes, the goal was threatened three times, this frequency is really too high, so high that Cheng Dù has to deal with it.
Lin Sen was noncommittal, but Kidd was right, Lin Sen did want to adjust, the question is, how to adjust?
Change Cahill? No kidding, Cahill's current problem is not a problem of his ability, but more of a small gap between him and Kompany, which cannot be changed by him or not, unless David Luiz is on it, otherwise, another person can only enlarge this gap.
Can't change Cahill, then, for whom?
Midfielder? The two midfielders, Yaya Toure, is the central figure in the tandem of the front and back, Vidal is by far City's best player, and neither has a reason to make a substitution.
So, switching to an attacking player?
Needless to say, David Silva, who had high hopes for this game, could have been replaced if he had been replaced in the past hour. Not to mention, in the counterpoint with the opposing Carrick, David Silva's number is really a bit unacceptable, and the breakthrough success rate is not even 50%, which is undoubtedly an unqualified number for a core of the organization.
It's just that it can really be changed?
You know, the score is not Manchester City leading at the moment, but this is a game that must be decided. Swapping defensive players for the core of the organization in this situation is obviously not a positive sign -
Linson on one side walked back to the coach's box, while Ferguson, on the other side, walked out of the coach's box and came to the sidelines, and from time to time he "caught" a Manchester United player and explained a few words.
Lin Sen was hesitating, but Ferguson, he was urging.
In the case of the strength of the two teams is not much different, it is rare for one team to suppress the other team for the whole game, and the vast majority of them may be that you will sing and I will appear. In other words, both teams have their own moments in the 90-minute game, or perhaps to put it more down-to-earth, it is the moment of downwind.
At the moment, the wind is undoubtedly on United's side.
Manchester City can't just let their team threaten their goal all the time, the wind will change sooner or later, Ferguson is very clear about this, Manchester United now seize the gap in the middle of the opponent to attack, frequently create threats, but as the game progresses, Manchester United can now clamp down the opponent's two wings, as the physical decline, will gradually lose control.
You must know that players like Di Maria and Reus are still sitting on the opponent's bench, and Ferguson has nowhere to find a few more Park Ji-sung who can't run. And once the two sides start to build up an advantage, then the wind will turn to Manchester City's side.
Therefore, in response to the saying, take advantage of his illness to kill him, or if he dies, he will want your life.
Ferguson's "wit" soon paid off.
In the 68th minute, Ryan Giggs sent a through ball from the midfield, Rooney cleverly missed it, Hernandez once again found the gap in the Manchester City defence, and this time, Lady Luck finally stopped favoring Manchester City.
A cool shot through the crotch, the big and small doors pierced together.
Joe Hart, who was sitting on the ground and kicked the ball into the net again, but behind him, the cheers of the ecstatic United fans had long since drowned out his frustration.
screen.
The camera is shaking violently.
Over the pitch.
Red cheers resounded through the sky.
Sideline dugout.
Lin Sen's face was expressionless. (To be continued!)
