Chapter 51: Morale is High (Four More Requests for Subscription!) )
On the evening of March 9, Zagreb, the Maksimir Stadium was brightly lit.
A large number of Dinamo Sallegb fans gathered here after the meal.
They are all looking forward to a crucial Champions League promotion game.
After the first round of the Champions League knockout round, Dinamo Zagreb won 2-1 away at Manchester United.
This gave them a good start in the knockout stage!
Dinamo Saleghbo, who is currently in control and is back at home, will inevitably have a greater advantage.
As a result, the chances of them qualifying for the next leg of the Champions League have also increased considerably.
For this match, the Croatian commentator invited Davao. Su Ke sat in the live broadcast room.
This is also Davao. After Suke retired, he appeared in front of the public again.
Davao in a suit. Su Ke was particularly excited when facing the camera.
"Since their first qualifying match, they haven't stopped growing, yes! This Dinamo Zagreb side are completely two teams from the same team at the start of the season, and they have grown so much in the Champions League. ”
'Manchester United are a good team and they have a manager like Alex Ferguson, but I'm sure the lads at Dinamo Zagreb can still perform well at home.
Davao. Suker unreservedly supports the lads of Dinamo Zagreb.
Whether it's the same Croatian identity or former teammates, these are the key to Davao. Suker is looking forward to this match.
At first, he didn't think the lads at Dinamo Zagreb would make a difference in the Champions League.
But after one game, these lads broke his expectations again and again.
Now it has gone all the way to the knockout round of the Champions League, and it has defeated Manchester United away.
Oh, my God!
It's something that is simply unimaginable, but that's what happened.
Roy. Keane's factor is huge, but Dinamo Zagreb's ability to score two goals at Old Trafford shows that their attacking prowess is still incredibly fast.
Moreover, the starting position in this game is interesting.
Dinamo Zagreb (4-4-2):
Goalkeeper: Grestic.
Defenders: Srna, Giarni, Stimac, Pranic.
Midfielders: Valevic, Vukojevic, Modric, Rakitic.
Forwards: Mandzukic, Suker.
Manchester United (4-4-2):
Goalkeeper: Carroll.
Defenders: Neville, Silwest, Rio Ferdinand, O'Shea.
Midfielders: Scholes, Heinze, Allan. Smith, Giggs.
Forwards: Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney.
'In this game, there was a similar formation on both sides and Suker was also in the forward position in the Champions League after the league.
With that, the narrator Klausievich turned his head towards Davao. Suke asked; "Why don't you put Suker on the left wing, I always thought that was the best position for Suke."
'It's your subjective perception, Suker plays as a left winger too often, so you think it's the most consistent position, but I think Suker should be stuck at the back, he has a lot of forward penetration, he has a strong nose in front of goal and open space, which can make Dinamo Zagreb's attack more intense.
"Suker is the type of striker that defenders hate the most, so you have to keep an eye on him and if you miss him, all he can give back is a goal!"
Davao. Suke smiled; "Suker stuck in the backline is very deadly."
The commentary desk began to discuss Suke's position.
And at Manchester United's coaching box, Ferguson is also frowning.
He just hates it when small teams make these clever tactical changes.
In an era of scarce information exchange, it is difficult for them to gather first-hand information, let alone effective information.
At least from the information Ferguson has gathered so far, Suker has not played in that position.
It is not known exactly what kind of kick it can be played and what kind of threat it has.
At this time, the game in the arena is about to begin.
Manchester United kicked off first.
When Cristiano Ronaldo kicked off with Wayne Rooney, the two entered the Dinamo Zagreb half together, but soon they had to retreat again.
Mainly, Dinamo Zagreb began to press forward and press, and there was a lot of pressure in the midfield.
"Onward! Pass it on! ”
Cristiano Ronaldo ran and ran to the side.
He was just about to wave his hand for the ball when Rakitic suddenly appeared next to Cristiano Ronaldo.
This also made Ronaldo frown, in which case his teammates would not pass the ball to him.
Cristiano Ronaldo had to move places, but Rakitic followed suit until Ronaldo shrank inward, and Vukojevic took over.
On the other hand, Rooney's situation is similar.
"As soon as the game started, Dinamo Zagreb started to press forward."
The Croatian commentator also shouted loudly.
That's right, you have to kick out the morale!
Davao on the other side. Su Ke also nodded with a smile.
Dinamo Zagreb is not a rampage, not to mention other positions, Dinamo Zagreb must be ahead in midfield.
Lost Roy. After Keane, Heinze was moved forward to play at the back of the defence.
Ryan Giggs and Scholes retreat to support Alain. Smith.
But the problem is that they can't find the target to pass forward.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney were both seen dead.
"Annoying!"
Alan. Smith crosses the ball to his teammate and quickly runs to the next gap.
Just as Neville passed the ball again to Alain. Smith, Ryan Giggs suddenly exclaimed, "Be careful! ”
Alan. Smith was stunned for a moment, only to see a figure sliding from their half and kicking the ball back to Modric.
"Well done! Sucre! ”
Suker hurriedly propped himself up and turned his head to get stuck in the backline.
Modric also held the ball, and immediately transferred a long pass to Valevic, who had more space on the right.
After Valevic stopped the ball, he went straight forward and diagonally to Mandzukic.
Mandzukic carried Rio Ferdinand to turn and plug the ball so that Suker could cut forward.
Sooke did step forward.
But Mandzukic's pass was intercepted by Rio Ferdinand's outstretched foot.
"Ah~~~ Mandzukic didn't pass well, if the ball can be passed, it could be a one-on-one chance for Suke."
Commentator Klausievich said with a regretful expression.
The fans of Dinamo Salegab at the scene also sighed regretfully.
However, this pressing + counterattack still put pressure on Manchester United's backline.
"Looting! Looting! ”
Sooke retreated and began to press with his teammates.
Mandzukic didn't have time to regret it and immediately plunged into the oppression.
"Hell yes!"
As soon as Ryan Giggs struggled to break through the defence, Walevic had already posted it and poked it out.
"Got it again!"
Commentator Klaushyvich shouted excitedly.
Davao on the side. Su Ke was also smiling.
That's the way Dinamo Zagreb plays, if you don't have a reliable ball-handler in the midfield, or if you have a numerical advantage, you're going to be pressed all the time and you're not able to get out of the ball.
And it just so happens that the current Manchester United really does not have a player who can be called the brain of the midfield, who can pass the ball reasonably and clearly.
"Big feet! Open your feet! Don't fall in the back! ”
Wayne Rooney was already yelling in front of him.
Ronaldo's face is also full of anxiety.
They tried a lot of movements, but the problem was that the ball couldn't be passed!
At this time, the camera also happened to capture Ferguson in the coach's box.
I saw Ferguson chewing gum, his eyes looked at the court without blinking, and he chewed gum very quickly.
Even the average fan can see it.
Manchester United played passively!
Alex Ferguson knows this even better.
Dinamo Zagreb's momentum kicked out.
They began to press forward, and Modric frequently passed the ball to Mandzukic, allowing Mandzukic to attract more attention.
Rio Ferdinand and Mandzukic were in hand-to-hand combat, and the confrontation between the two was extremely fierce.
Ferdinand was stuck in Mandzukic's turning space.
At that moment, Modric suddenly ran across from Mandzukic.
"Tactic number two!"
Ferdinand is at a loss, what number two tactic?
At this point, Mandzukic suddenly passed the ball back, and at the same time turned and slammed it hard, pushing a little space and sprinting towards the right.
"Don't try to run!"
Ferdinand immediately turned in pursuit.
At the same time, Modric also looked to the right, and his right foot gently picked up the ball.
Obviously looking at the right, but the ball was picked up and crossed to the left side.
"Oops!"
Ferdinand exclaimed, turning his head and shouting, "Neville! ”
Swish!!
A blue figure had already stepped forward and pierced the backline.
Ferdinand shouted late.
Sooke looked up at the ball as he ran.
On his side, Sylvester was staring at him.
Suker lightly touched the ball on his chest and accelerated forward again.
Sylvester immediately followed.
Suker slammed his foot to open up space for his shot and fired directly with his right foot.
"Suke!! Shot!! ”
Bang!
The ball was full of power, but not enough angle.
The ball was saved by the goalkeeper and flew to the right.
"Mandzukic!! ——”
The narrator, Klausievich, jerked to his feet.
Mandzukic was engaged in a fierce physical confrontation with Rio Ferdinand, and as he was close to the ball, Mandzukic suddenly fell to the ground and slammed into the tackle.
But Silwest, another United centre-back, suddenly came out sideways and slammed the ball out with his head.
"Oh~~~~ Sylvester!! Wonderful doordoor rescue!! He blocked a dangerous shot from Dinamo Zagreb! ”
