United's coaching staff and substitutes glared at Wan Sheng.

Ferguson also looked at Wan Sheng with a red face, he hadn't been so angry for a long time.

He didn't expect that it would be a young man who would make him angry, not his player or his junior, but a football coach on an equal footing with him.

If someone had told him that a football coach who was not yet 30 years old could be an opponent of him and be on an equal footing with him, he would still believe it, because there are always lucky young people who get their chances, but if someone says that this young man can lead the team to victory over Manchester United and repeatedly provoke him and disrespect him, he will not believe it very much.

Not to mention the outcome of the game, with his influence in European football, would any young coach disrespect him?

Now this man has appeared!

The point is that this young man not only disrespected him, but also led the team to win over Manchester United repeatedly, he had nothing to say about the past games, and now Manchester United is behind again, and the backward situation coupled with being provoked, Ferguson's anger can be imagined.

In his first defeat to Wansheng's Derby County, Ferguson still felt that it was just the opponent's luck and good performance, and after repeated defeats, he knew that the young man was already qualified to be his opponent.

And now...... The other party doesn't seem to have taken him seriously at all!

Intolerable!

Ferguson was very annoyed, and at the same time he was angry, he was also thinking about the game.

Now Manchester City's tactical play is surprisingly conservative, and that conservatism makes him feel ...... It's very weak, if the opponent is Chelsea, the game will be difficult to see to death, the opponent is almost equivalent to holding the goal and not attacking, but the opponent is Manchester City. So it looks like Manchester City are playing well, they have a lot of passes, and they have a lot of good combinations, at least it can make Manchester City fans feel that the team is playing well.

But in fact, there is no difference between the two, they are both very conservative, but the situation is different!

It's just conservative. After the goal just now, Ferguson has seen that the opponent is just comparing patience with Manchester United.

When Manchester United defends well, the opponent does not attack, it has been playing control, playing defense, Manchester United's defense is a little chaotic, and the opponent immediately attacks when he sees the opportunity.

This kind of play is really a headache.

In the world of football, there is a saying that defense wins. That's what the opposition is doing, defending to be invincible, then looking for United's weaknesses and then unleashing the lethal blow.

If you miss a hit, you will immediately retreat to the defense, and if you hit the ground, of course, needless to say, just look at the current score.

Manchester United are already behind!

Come to these first. Ferguson had a sudden feeling - it turned out that the Chinese intended to win like this, and it turned out that Manchester United's tactical play was like this. No wonder he didn't have much effect by letting the team press hard, the opponent was simply ready.

Then he realised again that United were behind.

Thinking of the Chinese's facial expression just now, Ferguson felt even more depressed.

"Bastard! Sh-it！ He couldn't help but curse angrily.

……

The entire Millennium Stadium in Cardiff was filled with the sounds of goal celebrations, with Manchester City fans shouting wildly and many neutral fans cheering on Manchester City's goal. It felt like it had become Manchester City's home stadium.

There was a tremendous amount of energy from the supporters of Manchester City, each of whom was desperately chanting for the goal and venting their excitement.

on the media.

Ahead of the game, most of the media were in favour of Manchester United, which was the conclusion of a multi-faceted analysis.

Injuries, preparation, fixtures, fame, heritage...... Wait a minute. A lot of factors were in favour of Manchester United, and some of them thought that United might lose the game, but never thought that the game would turn out like this.

Less than 30 minutes into the game, Manchester City scored first?

1:0？

The score is not the most crucial, the most crucial thing is that Manchester United have been beaten before and seem to have little to fight back, their possession time is really pitiful, and it is difficult to threaten the Manchester City goal with a few attacks.

This situation is staggering.

Many media outlets were surprised, and while the goal was celebrated, the guests they invited played a role and began to analyze the reasons for the current situation.

"It's not a question of quality, it's a performance, Manchester United is not as good as Manchester City......"

"Manchester United haven't had much of an advantage against the two teams this season, mainly because City are very good at controlling the ball!"

"Manchester United didn't play resolute enough, you can see the departure of captain Roy Keane, it has a big impact on them, the combination of Ryan Giggs and O'Shea, it's hard to get on Morris ......"

'Maurice is at the heart of Manchester City and Manchester United are not defensively good in that position.

"On the side, Manchester United didn't play to their advantage, and C-Ronaldo hasn't done anything so far."

This last point was also interpreted by many Chinese media, and then they began to praise Sun Jihai.

"Sun Jihai played a key role in this goal, and his assist was very crucial!"

"Ivan Crewe inserted it in a timely manner, and you can see that he and Sun Jihai have a very tacit understanding."

"Not only in terms of offense, but Sun Jihai's defense was also very good before, he was not stage frightened at all in the face of Portuguese genius C-Ronaldo, and he was not at a disadvantage!"

“……”

In the midst of many praises, Sun Jihai is also enjoying the praise and gratitude of his teammates, the praise is naturally his pass just now, and the thanks are also, Ivan Crewe's scoring opportunities are created by him.

City's goal celebration was still a bit crazy, with goals on the one hand and leading goals on the other.

Leading over Manchester United excites them.

When many players celebrated their goals, they also remembered what head coach Wan Sheng said before the game, "You must be steady!" Steady! Steady! Important things to emphasize three times...... As long as we can keep playing more consistently and wear down the patience of the other side, then we will have a chance. ”

"Be steady when you control the ball and defend, let go when you attack, seize opportunities, and let them know that they are great as long as they attack!"

'Most people think we don't have a chance and we have to use the result to tell them that we are here so that Manchester United don't win the title!'

"The champion can only belong to us!"

When the Manchester City players finished celebrating. When we ran back to their own half, everyone didn't hesitate, they knew what to do next.

What they have to do is simple - keep trying, look for opportunities, try to score another goal and make the Reds completely desperate!

Previous media analysis of the match. It became the motivation for each of them, and they were full of fighting spirit to prepare for the competition.

Ivan Crewe, like his team-mates, was in good position and ready to kick off.

He glanced at the coach's box.

Wan Sheng seemed to sense that someone was paying attention to him, and he also turned his head to look, and the two looked at each other, and Wan Sheng gave a thumbs up to Ivan Crewe.

Ivan Crewe grinned when he saw Wan Sheng's movements.

When he first arrived, he didn't know if he would be able to find a regular place at Manchester City, but now he feels more and more important in the team.

……

With the referee's whistle. The game resumes.

Rather than demoralizing a goal, United pressed even higher, attacking City in the hope of equalising as soon as possible.

This is also a normal state of mind.

With one more goal down, it only takes one goal to equalise and all of City's advantage will be in vain.

It's the Carabao Cup final, a winner-or-lose game, and the 90-minute score is pretty important. All they have to do is try to score goals.

When faced with Manchester United's unleashed attack, the average team will feel stretched. Defence can also become flustered, even for Chelsea, who are regarded as the best defensive, because Manchester United are the best team in Europe, and when they press on the attack, it is difficult for any team to take it in stride.

It's the same with Manchester City.

Manchester United were not very aggressive in attack before, and they were able to use possession to achieve the goal of controlling the initiative. But when Manchester United let go of their hands and feet, the defense is a little stretched, especially when the football is at the feet of Manchester United, and then it is unwise to carry out scattered full-court pressing, at this time the best option is to retreat. Compress the formation to defend the penalty area intensively, so as to ensure the maximum safety of the goal.

Wansheng gave a special advice on this point.

He thought of the various situations that he would encounter in the game, and it was definitely one of the common situations for the opponent to attack aggressively after taking the lead, and he asked everyone to decisively retreat and defend in the face of this situation, and ensure that the goal was not lost first.

When the defense is good at converting the ball, spread out and continue to pass and control, and then continue to be patient with the opponent.

This kind of quite conservative tactical play ideas, Wan Sheng explained over and over again, which also includes a lot of details, such as how to retreat, when to retreat, what to pay attention to in defensive supplements, etc., each player will have their own approach, and each person's approach is combined to be the tactical play of the whole team.

So at this point, City didn't look flustered at all, and they methodically retreated to defence.

In the face of a solid defensive Manchester City, Manchester United really has no way at all, they are attacking aggressively, but if they want to find opportunities, they can't just have a large number of people, the range in front of the goal is so large, too many people will block the goal, it doesn't make much sense at all.

So soon the ball was at the feet of Manchester City again.

Then the Manchester United players saw that Manchester City began to tear apart the formation again, disperse the position, and then keep running, passing, running, passing, if they go to press, then the physical energy must be consumed more than the right, but if they don't go, they don't know what to do, is it like Manchester City just now to retreat to defend?

Many United players were immediately at a loss.

Some of them pressed and chased in the direction of the football, but that didn't have much practical effect, and some players simply retreated to the halfway line and waited for Manchester City to attack, but unfortunately they were always waiting to watch Manchester City still keep passing.

They are so depressed that they want to vomit blood!

So they went further across the halfway line to grab the ball, and the formation was a bit chaotic.

Morris, who had just gotten the ball, glanced at it and saw an opportunity, so he reacted decisively...... (To be continued......)
