Chapter 407: The Game Has Only Started Twelve Minutes (82/134)

When the referee's whistle blew, Old Trafford suddenly fell silent at that time, and the previous cheers, applause and whistles were gone.

It's as if everyone has a tacit understanding.

Just after that whistle, Rooney made two runs and picked up his right foot.

The inside of his right foot struck the back of the ball from back to front, and the ball flew up, creating an arc that was just right to go around the jumping Lazio wall and appear in front of Handanovic's eyes!

The Slonia goalkeeper reacted very quickly and deserved to be one of the top three goalkeepers in football today.

He was just up from behind the wall when he took the ball into the air.

When the ball flew over, his palm did touch the ball.

However, Rooney's free kick is like his long-range shot, although it has an arc and is a banana ball, the power is very great!

After the football hit Handanovic's hand, it directly knocked Handanovic's finger away, and then still flew into the goal tenaciously!

β€»β€»β€»

Almost as soon as Rooney kicked the football, the cheers that had disappeared for a second returned and flew into the goal with the football.

Then when the goal came in, the United fans cheered at their best.

The whole of Old Trafford was like an active volcano that had completely erupted at this moment.

β€œoal!! Rooney! Wayne Rooney!! Nice direct free kick to score! ”

"Well done Rooney! In this game, Manchester United must take every chance of a possible score! Especially set-pieces! And now they do! United took the lead in the game with a direct free-kick! ”

"Set pieces! It's an important way to score goals! Manchester United must have practised this before the game! This free kick is very beautiful! ”

"Rooney! 1:0! Manchester United take the lead at home! On aggregate scores. They also temporarily led Lazio with an aggregate score of 2:1! ”

The narrators cheered.

At this time, the emotions they had been suppressing were finally released.

Rooney also looked excited after the goal, running all the way to the corner flag area and then standing with his head up with his arms outstretched. It's his signature celebratory move.

Doing this celebration also means that he is in a good mood.

As soon as the free-kick was kicked out, Rooney knew it had scored.

Sure enough, I entered.

He felt like he was in very good shape today.

So he's full of confidence for the next races!

Manchester United knocked out Lazio at home and scored themselves.

What a perfect game......

β€»β€»β€»

After Rooney's goal. Even Ferguson excitedly rushed all the way down from his seat to the sidelines, waving his fists!

Not to mention others.

Behind him, United's bench has long since become a sea of joy, and they have merged with those spectators behind them, becoming an integral part of the boiling Old Trafford.

Naturally, Ferguson was thrilled.

That's what he's dreamed of!

Since the beginning of the season, Lazio have been the first to take the lead, and few teams have been able to reverse Lazio in the game.

And Manchester United did it!

That's what Ferguson was tactically for.

Once United have taken the lead, they will continue to defend high for a while. Then immediately switch to the same form as when the two sides met in the first round. Take advantage of excellent pressing and tenacious willpower. to ensure the safety of the goal. At the same time, he waited for an opportunity to fight Lazio's counterattack.

β€»β€»β€»

The entire Old Trafford stadium seemed to shake and tremble as Rooney scored the goal, with high-decibel cheers from the fans. It's almost comparable to the sound of a supersonic airliner taking off.

But in this environment, Chang Sheng, who stood on the sidelines, was expressionless. It seems very calm.

He didn't hold his head in his hands, and he didn't make a regretful gesture.

He didn't do anything, giving the impression that he was actually a realistic wax figure.

Chang Sheng is so calm because Chang Sheng himself doesn't worry about this.

Just because you lose a goal away doesn't mean your team will lose the game.

It's not a big deal to let the opponent score a goal.

He knows what his team is supposed to do, and he knows how far his team can go.

Completely different from Manchester United's high-post defensive tactics, Lazio's tactics are simple - attack!

It's offense.

Even in the face of Manchester United's high defence, Lazio did not think of changing this tactic.

On the road, Lazio also insisted on playing attacking football, not because Chang Win has a heart of "don't attack or die", but because attacking is the best way to completely destroy Manchester United.

Changsheng also wants to think about those who always talk about "common sense" and "in general", Lao Tzu's Lazio just doesn't follow the usual path and can still win!

Despite conceding a goal, Chang Sheng did not change his mind.

So he was very calm, he had confidence in the team and he was reassured.

Lazio is very, very strong now, and watching Lazio play not only reassures their fans, but even a manager like Chang Sheng.

After Lazio conceded the goal, instead of yelling on the sidelines and kicking the water bottle in a hurry, he turned around and walked back to the dugout.

After climbing the stairs, he finally sat down in his place.

Turning to Di Matteo, who was looking at him inquiringly, he turned his head and said calmly, "Don't worry, Robert. The game had only just started twelve minutes. ”

β€»β€»β€»

As the regular wins trusted, when the game resumed, United continued to press Lazio high up, but Lazio was much more stable than before the goal was conceded.

With more than ten minutes to go, Lazio's players are getting familiar with United's high pressing rhythm.

And most importantly, the Lazio players themselves have a very strong sense of mission - we want to create a future that has never been seen before. We're going to go the road no one has ever walked before!

There is such an idea, there is a very clear goal, and then there is a sense of mission to make history, and these are all combined. The players of Lazio are very mentally good.

Even if you lose a goal, you won't look flustered.

The coaching staff had already analysed them before the game, what to do if they conceded first.

The plans are very well done, the players just need to take their seats and then execute the tactics according to the plan.

What happens after conceding the ball first?

What to do in the face of Manchester United's high pressing?

It's not a shrink defense. It's not about controlling the rhythm with inverted feet at the back, it's ...... A faster, murderous attack!

As long as there's the ball, attack!

β€»β€»β€»

Despite Modric's presence on the pitch, he was not the only playmaker for Lazio's attack.

Every player can be a playmaker when they have the ball, and they are capable of doing that.

It will make it very difficult for United to defend.

Just like in the attack against Bayern Munich, Lazio's first attack after falling behind was a full display of their multi-core play.

Soccer balls are constantly passing, but these passes are not all used to make up the numbers and brush the ball possession.

Lazio's every pass was purposeful. The threats are great. Especially the passes they made after half-time. It will make the defenders feel as if they are in the area where they are will be used as a breakthrough point by Lazio. The spirit is highly tense, and he doesn't dare to wander at all.

This tension has nothing to do with Lazio's speed, even when they pass the ball quickly. The opponent will feel a little better.

Because at that time, you don't need to think, you just need to follow the body's ability.

But once Lazio slowed down the tempo. Give them time to think, and a lot of strange thoughts will pop up in their heads. In the face of Lazio's attack, they will think a lot.

When they start thinking too much, their energy in defense will be distracted, which will not be conducive to better defense.

Now Lazio's multi-core tactics are no secret, and everyone knows that Lazio are capable of doing this.

Therefore, when defending, you have to be extra careful.

But the players are not machines, they are people, and their energy is limited.

Ninety minutes in a game is tense all the time, which is too high a standard for any team and is almost impossible to achieve.

Even if one person reaches it, it won't help, because football is a team sport, it's a matter of eleven people, you do it, others can't, Lazio can still find loopholes through other people.

Because these teams know Lazio's secrets, when they play against Lazio, it is more tiring and difficult to defend.

The more time passes, the more psychological stress they have.

In the face of Lazio's attack, Manchester United could still maintain a high pressing position at the beginning. However, as time goes by, fans will notice that Manchester United's defensive position is retreating little by little.

From the very beginning, he could hit Lazio's midfield position to press, and now he has just been able to reach the middle line.

United's defensive position is still dropping back......

They were being pressed back into their own half by Lazio's powerful attack.

Lazio didn't play much faster this game, they didn't push from the back to the front very quickly, and there was a feeling of heavy force slowly pressing.

This sense of oppression is stronger than Lazio's blind fast attack.

It was as if the sky was raining arrows and shooting down in the dark.

In the face of such Lazio, Manchester United can only retreat, retreat, retreat and retreat.

This is not Manchester United's initiative to adjust, they should continue to press high for a period of time, and strive to score another goal by pressing high, then it will completely lock up the win.

But now...... can only be forced to give up the high press in advance and switch to positional warfare defense.

Then wait for an opportunity to fight back - if you have the chance.

Lazio continued to press forward, forward.

After crossing the halfway line, they are still closing in on Manchester United's goal!
