I Am Really the Savior of the Red Devils
Chapter 232 Crisis and Transformation
The latest website: Everyone said they were afraid of anything, and the second half of the game didn't start, and Manchester United conceded another goal.
Only 3 minutes into the second half, Southampton caught Manchester United by surprise again. First, Raymond's volley from the right side of the penalty area was blocked by De Gea and gave the opponent a corner kick. As a result, Southampton used this corner kick to score a goal.
Prowse took the corner kick and his cross created a murderous intent. After Manchester United cleared the siege, Davies overwhelmed Kante with a header and headed back into the penalty area. , the score on the field became 2:2.
At this moment, it was the turn of Southampton fans to be ecstatic. The 40,000 Saints fans at the scene produced huge cheers, and the entire New Wembley Stadium seemed to vibrate.
Puel, who was standing on the sidelines commanding, jumped up high at that moment, raised his hands high, and then ran on the sidelines, celebrating for the team's equalizer, and even glanced at Ye who was sitting on the coach's bench Su gave a glance, as if he was demonstrating, but also provocative.
Ye Su's face was ugly, because the two main mistakes in the conceded goal were his most important defensive backbones: defensive midfielder Kanter and central defender Van Dijk!
It can be said that after joining Manchester United, these two have always been the most stable defense of Manchester United, and they rarely make mistakes. Like just now, the two made mistakes together and allowed the opponent to score, which has never happened before.
Both Kante and Van Dijk also looked very frustrated. Because the opponent players they faced just now did not have any obvious advantages compared with them.
Kanter's height is indeed his shortcoming. He is good at intercepting and stealing. Fighting for high balls has never been his strong point, but Davis, who just overwhelmed him, is only 1.72 meters tall, only 4 taller than him. centimeter. As long as he handles it properly, such a passive situation can be avoided.
As for Van Dijk, who was carried by Gabbiadini, he is even better than the Italian striker in terms of size. But in that flash of light just now, he was completely suppressed by Gabbiadini.
………………
The conceded goal has already happened, and Ye Su doesn't want to hold anyone accountable. Taking advantage of the time when the Southampton players celebrated their goals, Ye Su quickly called Bruno Fernandez, who was closest to him, to the sidelines and gave a few words of advice.
Bruno Fernandez nodded with a serious expression, returned to the field with Ye Su's latest instructions, and conveyed them to his teammates.
Ye Su's order was very simple. Although the score was equalized, Manchester United could not mess up and attack desperately. That is likely to lead to another loophole in Manchester United's defense, giving the opponent an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Southampton just equalized the score, which is when morale is high. Next, they are likely to take the initiative to launch a fierce attack on Manchester United's goal, striving to reverse the score in one go.
Now Manchester United's first priority is to tighten the fence in front of their own house, and make sure they don't lose the ball again.
Only after withstood Southampton's counterattack, Manchester United will play steadily and use their strength to suppress Southampton.
Ye Su has no shortage of ideas to win by surprise, but he is more aware that when the strength is at an absolute advantage, the real way to defeat the enemy is to fight steadily and use hard power to crush.
………………
As Ye Su expected, Southampton launched a high-pressure press against Manchester United after the game restarted. However, this happened to be against the iron wall of Manchester United's defense.
Bruno Fernandez clearly conveyed Ye Su's order to his teammates, no one can make mistakes in defense, otherwise they will not be able to play again this season!
Under Ye Su's strict order, Lingard and Martial, who had been relatively lazy before, began to work hard, and returned to the half-court to entangle their defensive targets.
At this time, they didn't dare to be stingy with their physical strength anymore. If they are replaced due to exhaustion, they will definitely be taken care of in the following games and get more playing time. But if he neglects to run because he is stingy with physical strength, and even causes the team to lose the ball again, it is really possible to be pressed on the bench for a long time.
Manchester United has a number of strong players in various positions, and no one is indispensable.
So, this scene appeared on the field:
When the ball was on Manchester United's side, the Southampton players frantically stepped forward to press, but the effect was mediocre. Manchester United players used their skillful passing and control, and the players continued to run in series to mobilize Southampton.
When the ball was on Southampton's side, it was Manchester United players who pressed like crazy. They follow like a shadow, giving Southampton players no room to control and pass the ball, let alone play a threatening attack.
The two sides kept strangling in the midfield, the players on both sides were on their backs, and the possession of the ball was constantly switching between the two sides, but it was difficult to hit the other side.
Manchester United voluntarily gave up some offensive opportunities. If there is no absolute opportunity, they all choose to pass in the midfield. Southampton faced desperate pressure from Manchester United players as soon as they got the ball. With limited player strength, it was difficult for them to control the ball smoothly, and passive ones could only pass it down in the midfield.
………………
Time passed quickly in such a slightly chaotic scene. Of course, what passed quickly was the physical fitness of the players.
Then, people discovered that the first to lose their physical fitness was not Manchester United, which was fighting on the four fronts, but Southampton, which only focused on the domestic arena.
When the game approached 70 minutes, the Manchester United players on the field were still walking like flying, but the Southampton players could not run anymore.
This is due to Manchester United's comprehensive rotation in the midfield. Although Manchester United fights on four fronts and has an extremely intensive schedule, these players in the midfield basically maintain the rhythm of playing once a week, and there is no problem with their physical fitness. As for the defensive players, although they only went to Spain to play a game in the middle of the week, they are more in the backcourt and consume less energy.
Of course, the most important thing is that they are all young and recover quickly. This game followed the previous game, and the time interval was almost four full days, and their physical fitness has recovered.
There was a problem with physical fitness, and the strength was inferior to Manchester United. As a result, Southampton was suppressed by Manchester United without any suspense on the scene.
Puel also found out that the situation was wrong, but it is difficult for a smart woman to cook without rice. Southampton's lineup cannot be compared with Manchester United.
………………
Ye Su's majestic formation and frontal crushing style of play finally achieved results.
In the 76th minute, Manchester United played a smooth offense and tore through Southampton's defense through continuous passes.
Bruno Fernandes cleverly dunked past the Southampton players defending him, found space, passed the ball into the Southampton penalty area, and found Harry Kane in front of him.
Harry Kane was unable to head directly to the goal under the close defense of the Southampton defender. However, he still grabbed the point and successfully ferried the ball into the open space.
A red figure rushed over quickly, met Harry Kane's header and kicked hard.
There was only a muffled "bang", and the ball turned in one direction, roaring towards Southampton's goal.
Behind the goal, Manchester United fans rushed out of their seats, ready to celebrate the goal, but at the critical moment, Southampton goalkeeper Fraser Foster showed the level of a world-class goalkeeper, leaping sideways and diving to the goal. The ball seals the goal frame.
Seeing the ball flying into the goal and being saved from the baseline by the opponent's goalkeeper, Lingard hugged his head in annoyance.
His shot has strength and speed, but the angle is not enough. If he chooses to be more tricky, even if Foster transforms into a super goalkeeper like Neuer, he will be powerless.
On the sidelines, Ye Su also applauded Lingard's shot.
………………
After conceding the second goal in the second half, Lingard's performance took a huge turn. He began to run and press desperately in the frontcourt, faithfully carrying out Ye Su's orders.
That's why Ye Su sent him to play. Lingard is not that kind of talented player, especially in Manchester United, his ability seems a bit mediocre. But Ye Su still kept him in the team and gave him a lot of opportunities to play, just treating him as a crap stick for Manchester United in the midfield, constantly disturbing the opponent's attack.
However, after he helped the team score the second goal in the first half, I don't know if he had some thoughts in his heart. He began to change his role, like to dribble and attack in offense, but he changed his defense. Cheng looked defensive.
Although Lingard is partnering with Bruno Fernandez as a midfielder on the field, Ye Su never asked him to be the core of the offense, but asked him to press the opponent's ball-handling players on the front line and give Kanter behind him Create chances for interceptions and tackles.
Once there is a problem in this part of him, the chain will cause the pressure on Kanter behind him to increase greatly.
Kanter is the team's single defensive midfielder. Although his defensive area is large, it is still a bit too difficult to support the barrier in front of the defense line alone. Especially facing Southampton, who is not weak in offense, he is even more stretched alone.
It is precisely because of this that Manchester United conceded consecutive goals at the end of the first half and the beginning of the second half.
In the back, Ye Su strictly ordered everyone to implement tactics. After everyone got back on track, Southampton never got any chances.
Of course, Lingard still has a good offensive ability. Ye Su did not completely deny him the opportunity to attack and shoot, but asked him to use his offensive talent after performing his tactical tasks well.
For example, it was very good to attack later this time, and Ye Su was not stingy with his applause.
But if this kid still doesn't change after Bruno Fernandez brought his orders, Ye Su is already ready to replace him.
