Chapter 44: Red Army VS Red Devils (7)

"O~ just a little bit, George was able to complete a beautiful volley barb shot. Looking at the indifferent Barthez, I really don't know what Barthez thinks, is he really so sure that George's shot will be wide of the goal, so he ignores George's shot at all. If it happens, if the ball hits right, the consequences are unimaginable. ”

Although George's shot just now did not go in, the Manchester United fans in the stadium still did not hesitate to applaud themselves and give George this enemy. For the fans, it is natural to want to see a wonderful goal, and although the goal just now did not score, it does not mean that Manchester United fans will be stingy with their applause. For United fans, such a shot is almost a rarity at Old Trafford, with George's shot failing to score but mentally commendable.

"Damn, you all see what you've done. Cheer me up, and Barthez, if you kid is tired and doesn't want to play, just tell me, I'll replace you right away. ”

It was a shame for the proud Ferguson to hear the United fans give George a round of applause. What does it mean that the fans give their opponents applause, it means that their fans are very dissatisfied with their team, which makes the arrogant Ferguson very unhappy, yelling at the team in the stadium.

"." Seeing that his shot didn't go in, George couldn't help but curse, if the goal could be scored just now, George was sure that the front page of the major newspapers in the UK tomorrow would definitely be himself and this goal. It's a pity that it all builds on that goal just now, didn't score, don't even think about it. Thinking of this, George looked at Ferdinand on the side depressedly, it was this guy's interference that caused him to be so beautiful that he didn't score a goal.

Looking at George's complaining eyes, Ferdinand also couldn't say anything. We're not teammates on the same team, you're an attacking player, I'm a defensive player, and now the two sides are playing, so I can't stop you from it, let you shoot and score.

As the game continued, the Reds continued their unfast and slow style of play, slowly passing the ball back and forth, sometimes with long passes to Ruud van Nistelrooy, who then ferried the ball to his teammates on the sidelines, quietly looking for opportunities. It's a pity that Liverpool is already one goal ahead of Manchester United, so naturally they don't dare to be careless, at least so far, there are no holes in the defense.

If Manchester United is playing positional warfare, then Liverpool is playing a typical defensive counterattack, and the speed of this counterattack is a bit fast, usually Harman and Gerrard pass directly to Colwill, George and Owen, and then the three of them rely on their proud speed to madly behave, often play half a minute before you Manchester United just shot, half a minute later, Liverpool to Manchester United penalty area to complete the shot.

With George and Owen and Colwill three speed attacking players of the rapid counterattack, so that Manchester United's two fullbacks do not dare to press, no way, if it is pressed, maybe Liverpool will score when a quick counterattack, after all, the two fullbacks have gone up, leaving only Ferdinand and Silvestre in the backfield, in the face of a three-on-two situation, or Liverpool goals, under normal circumstances, there is definitely more than 70% likely to score. Thinking of this, Manchester United's two full-backs did not dare to step forward to assist.

Although there were no more goals in the game, the game between the two sides was very exciting, and the tactics of technical flow, stream of consciousness, positional warfare, and anti-counterattack all appeared on the Old Trafford stadium, which made the fans on the scene excited, cheering, shouting and cheering each other, and never stopped.

Before you know it, time has flown by, and the first half of the game ended with Gerrard's 30-meter shot being confiscated by Barthez. Both sides were unwilling, Manchester United wanted to expand the score, Liverpool wanted to equalize, but there was no way, they could only wait for fifteen minutes and then return to the pitch to have a good fight.

When George and the others returned to the locker room, they did not talk and laugh as usual, but instead gasped for breath while drinking soda. Both teams are giants of the Premier League, although it is only half a game, but because the game is very intense, the physical consumption of players on both sides is very serious.

Now George and the others don't have the same mind to joke and chat with each other as before, they just sit quietly together, don't say a word, and try to recover more physical strength in the short intermission.

"Damn, playing half a game against Manchester United even feels more tiring than playing extra time with other teams." George said to Owen beside him, hearing George's words, Owen didn't even have the strength to go back, just nodded and agreed.

"Well, please note, I know you're tired right now, so I'll cut it short, everyone played really well in the first half, and as for that goal, I can only say it's a pity. In the second half, everyone must cheer up, George, Owen and Colwill, the speed of the three of you is fast, the technique at your feet is good, we still insist on our counter-defense counterattack in the second half, the position of the three of you is as close as possible when counterattacking, don't fight one-on-one with the opponent, try to cooperate with the two-on-one method, use the shortest time to pass the opponent, and strive to complete the shot after the opponent's player has not returned in time, is there a problem? ”

Hearing Lao Bei's words, the three of them nodded and said they knew.

"Steven, in the second half you try to try to attack as little as possible, and of course, you can shoot from distance if you have the chance. You stand in front of Hamann and start playing as a defensive midfielder, stretching your fitness, trying to make the midfield as much as possible, and then using your precise footwork to play long balls to Owen and the other three, and I don't believe that the defenders are so physical, I see how long they can hold out. ”

"Head, don't worry, I know what to do." Gerard nodded and said, for Gerald, this kind of task is very simple, and he has done it before.

"Reese, as for you to reduce the number of forward assists as much as possible in the second half, after all, there is still a Beckham on the other side. The guy's passing was just too accurate, and Ruud van Nistelrooy's damn Dutchman header was good. Anyway, I don't care about anything else, your first task is to prevent Beckham and minimize the number of passes he makes, if there is a problem. ”

"No problem." Reese patted his chest and reassured that Reeser was still very confident that he would defend against Beckham. After all, Beckham is not a technical player, and it is not so easy to break through himself. In addition, Beckham's speed is not very fast, even if he is broken through by Beckham, Reese believes that he can catch up with Beckham in a short period of time and continue to entangle him.

Anyway, the task given to Riser by the old Beckham is not to say that Beckham can't pass the ball, that is obviously impossible. As long as Reese goes to reduce the number of passes from Beckham as much as possible, it's very simple, as long as Reese can entangle Beckham, Beckham's passes will naturally be less.

"Giggs is very fast, the breakthrough is sharp, Carragher, your task is not to assist, I need you to treat yourself as a central defender and nail Giggs firmly for me, is there a problem?"

"No problem." Is it okay, in this world, I'm afraid no one can pat their chest and say that they can completely prevent Giggs from death. But Carragher can't help it, after all, the positions of the two are right, and Lao Bei still confesses like this, if he dares to chirp, I'm afraid that the next game, he will have to sit on the bench.

Thinking of this, Carragher made up his mind that in the second half of the game, he must teach Giggs a good lesson, even if he can't prevent it, he will stop Giggs if he fouls, in short, he will not make Giggs feel good.

"Also, you have to pay attention, Beckham's free kick is very good, you must not give the opponent a chance to take a free kick dangerously, you know......"
