Football Legend No. 13

After scoring a goal, City began to pick up speed.

From Kevin De Bruyne's shot, they also noticed that United's defence was biased in long-range shooting, which was an opportunity for them.

After Manchester United's kick-off, Manchester City continued to press forward, although the front did not work, but this is their tactic, must be persistent.

Looking at such a pressing, Manchester United is not in a hurry, unhurriedly playing the ball, while constantly pushing forward, not fast, but the victory is stable.

"Manchester City's constant upward grabs have affected the pace of United's advance, but so it's too simplistic to think that defeating Manchester United?"

Although the pace of advancement slowed down, the ball was still controlled by Manchester United.

But after Matic was still forced to return the ball in the pass, he once again shoved straight at the ball.

Zheng Lin received the ball and faced Fernandinho and David Silva, he dribbled the ball backwards, changed direction and got rid of the opponent at the same time, and passed the ball with the outside instep.

"Zheng Lin got rid of it beautifully, he picked the pass on the back of his foot!"

"Drip!!"

"Morata is offside again, this is the second offside in this game, will he set a new record?"

"If this continues, there is a high probability that this situation will occur!"

"I'm also looking forward to seeing if this Morata will come with a hat-trick offside record!"

"Manchester United's attack came to an abrupt end because of Morata's offside, and now is Manchester City's last chance to attack!"

Two consecutive waves of offside silenced United's attack, and this move also allowed Pep Guardiola to catch a problem - Morata's good sense of smell in front of goal.

But sometimes it's easy for him to start one step ahead of time, which gives him an idea that if he loses, he can easily lose the ball again.

After thinking for a moment, he commanded directly from the sidelines.

As an old rival, Mourinho also guessed his idea - to create offside.

This will be a problem for the next attack by Manchester United, and from the situation just now, Morata seems to be in too much of a hurry.

Judging by the arrangement of Guardiola just now, it is clear that he will grasp this, since this is the case, then it will be calculated!

At that moment, he shouted directly from the sidelines: "Zheng!" At the same time, he was also assigned new tactics.

The more critical the moment, the more the head coach needs to adjust, and this is the time for the managers of both sides to show themselves!

In City's final attack, United's strikers continued to put pressure on the ball carriers.

The midfielder held the position firmly to ensure that the overall defense did not have problems.

"Kevin De Bruyne feints to get rid of Rashford, he goes straight to the foot for a long pass;

Sane took the lead, Ashraf did not lag behind, they were getting closer and closer to the ball;

A reasonable charge by Ashraf left Sane to sigh and Manchester United once again sabotaged Manchester City's attack! "

With the defensive possession of the ball, United fought back.

When Ashraf made a long pass, the midfield whistle blew.

"Drip!!"

......

2-1 score, which is a more dangerous score, because anything is possible.

Especially as the only unbeaten team in the Premier League at the moment, their strength is beyond doubt.

Both sides had good chances in the first half and failed to take advantage of them, so I am afraid that the managers of both sides will readjust their tactics before the start of the second half.

"What do you expect from the second half?"

After the commentator watched the players return to the dressing room, they began to talk about the second half.

In terms of the confrontation in the first half, both sides showed their strengths, and actually showed problems against Manchester City's backline.

The defence wasn't as solid as they thought and that's what gave United a chance.

Manchester United's forward line is not a small problem, although he has scored a lot of goals, but the most fatal thing is his offside.

In this game alone, he has already had 2 offsides, and without offside, the score of this match cannot be 2-1.

According to Morata's performance, presumably Guardiola will be specially caught in the second half to make some trouble, otherwise he will not be able to hold back the performance of this guy.

Mourinho must find a way to solve this problem, otherwise the second half will not be so easy to say!

According to what Mourinho knows, he is bound to emphasize defense, but also let players seize the moment to play counter-attacks.

Manchester United on the pitch keep fast horses on the wing, which will inevitably be used, but once Guardiola uses offside tactics, it will depend on whether the Manchester United striker will fall into it.

As spectators, they found themselves unable to give United any advice because they defended well enough except for the offside of the striker.

If you want to limit the play of talent, it has to affect more layout, and they don't think Mourinho will do that.

At present, Manchester City's most game-breaking ability is De Bruyne, if you want to limit him, you must let Zheng Lin limit, which is tantamount to killing a thousand enemies and self-inflicting eight hundred.

But they missed one man, N'Golo Kante, who in addition to Zheng Lin is also one of the core of Manchester United's midfield, and he shares Zheng Lin's midfield defense.

......

Shift your gaze to the dressing room.

Mourinho thought for a moment before he kept his eyes on N'Golo Kante.

"Ngoro, I need you to keep an eye on De Bruyne in the second half, right?"

After getting a response from N'Golo Kante, he received a second-half replacement for Nemanja Matic and replaced Rice.

"Declan, in the second half you are on, I want you to be a good barrier in front of Harry and Thiago, Nemanja Matic in the second half..."

Nemanja nodded directly, he is very clear about Mourinho's arrangement, and he can make sacrifices for victory.

For Rice, he is very optimistic, this is the future of Manchester United, sending young people in key games is a challenge for young people and an opportunity at the same time.

The last sight Mourinho reminded Morata again, "I hope the offside situation does not happen again!"

Without waiting for Morata to respond, Mourinho turned his head and patted Thiago Silva's shoulder, and the two looked at each other, many things need not be said, everyone knows.

As for Zheng Lin's arrangement, Mourinho knew that this guy would not easily cede the victory.

He didn't want this win, and the championship is no easier way to open the points gap in the league than to win directly to the competition.

So in order to win the championship, Zheng Lin must win.

......

On the other side, Guardiola is also busy arranging tactics, and he has no bottom in his heart for offside tactics.

But Morata's frequent offside performances, he thinks it is worth trying, as for the effect, then it depends on the final result!

For this derby, they also know that once they lose, the initiative to compete for the league will be handed over.

This is not acceptable to Guardiola, who prefers to take the initiative in his hands.
