Red Rebels

The atmosphere of the York Street Stadium, which accommodates more than 2,000 fans, is very dignified. There are thick cumulonimbus clouds in the sky, and a rainstorm that may pour down at any time is coming. The battle for the top two teams in the National League is equally tense.

The 45 minutes of the first half are over. Only the substitute players from both sides are warming up. The cheers from the fans in the stands have also subsided. They all need to take a breath and wait until the second half to continue.

The score on the sideline scoreboard is the same as it was 45 minutes ago, and it has not changed.

The Boston team's game style is defensive, almost desperate defense. They are the typical attack that must be based on a counterattack based on a defense that guarantees that the ball will not be lost, but it is different from the first 80 minutes of the new Manchester United vs. Arsenal. The strange thing is that in that game, Bruce pinned his hand on Hleb in the last 10 minutes, while Boston planned to stick to 90 minutes.

Some people may find it strange, how can such a team climb to the current second place in the league?

Don't be surprised, the National League is still an amateur league after all. The team's skills and tactics are generally not as rigorous as the professional league. At the same time, there are a lot of amateur players. Taken by Boston.

But the new Manchester United played very calmly. Under Juninho's dispatch, they didn't give Boston any chance at all, but the new Manchester United also couldn't break through Boston's iron barrel formation.

It's funny to say that when the new Manchester United set up the iron barrel formation for Arsenal, the fans rejoiced at being able to beat Arsenal, but now they are restrained by Boston's iron barrel formation, but they feel very unwilling in their hearts and scold the opponent for being shameless.

Of course, Boston can climb to the current position, both the players and the head coach still have a certain level, especially in the tactics of restraining the new Manchester United.

Zikic, who has performed well this season, hardly played in this game. He was firmly watched by the opponent's two central defenders. Once the new Manchester United took the ball into Boston's defensive area, before entering the 35-meter area, Boston They will decisively adopt foul tactics, because they are afraid of Juninho, who is super strong in free kicks.

These were once the tactics used by the new Manchester United to restrain the enemy, but now they are used by the enemy on their own.

Throughout the first half, on the surface, the new Manchester United firmly grasped the initiative, but they did not get too many opportunities, especially after the strongest point of fire, Zikic, was restrained, and the new Manchester United's offense was lost. Most of the power.

…………

…………

"We can see that the strong offensive power of the new Manchester United was completely restrained by Boston United in the first half. This is the first time this season that the new Manchester United was cornered by the opponent. , the new Manchester United players obviously showed irritability, we have reason to believe that Boston will be more active in the second half than in the first half!"

The match between the top two teams in the standings attracted a live broadcast on a local TV station in the East Midlands. At the same time, they also invited a senior fan to comment on the ball, but it seems that this commentator is obvious. It's from the standpoint of Boston fans.

"I observed it specifically. In the first half, the new Manchester United had a total of 13 free kicks in the front court, but the positions were far from the goal. I believe this was specially arranged by the Boston team before the game. After all, the opponent had a very good free kick. A master, once he gets within 35 meters, his free kick technique will bring us a great threat."

"In addition, the two sides of the new Manchester United were also restrained to death by us. In addition, the high center forward Zikic was suppressed, which completely disintegrated the offensive firepower of the new Manchester United in this game. The forward move left us a large counterattack space behind us. This is an excellent opportunity.

I'm sure Boston's head coach will see this! "

"Players from both sides have entered the field. We can see that the lineup of the Boston team has not undergone any changes. The team's fastest No. 9 forward is still on the field. It can be seen that the Boston team is going to use his speed. Fighting back and threatening the new Manchester United defense at the same time."

"Hey, in addition, we saw that the new Manchester United took the lead in making substitutions."

When the commentator said this, the assistant referees on the sidelines had already lit up their number plates. First, No. 11 Crouch replaced No. 18 Krzynovic, and No. 20 Kitson replaced left back Patrice. Evra. "

Apparently, even the commentators were taken aback by the fact that the new United made two substitutions at the start of the second half, and both were forwards.

But when Crouch and Kitson stood next to Zikic, it immediately made all the Boston fans, including the TV commentators, gasp.

Zikic is 2.02 meters, Crouch is 2.01 meters, and Kitson is 1.91 meters. These three big men rushed to the front of the team. It is necessary to adopt indiscriminate bombing tactics and attack Boston's iron barrel array.

Bruce on the sidelines put his arms around his chest, and he smiled confidently at Cassel beside him: "You said three tall players rushed into the penalty area, can Boston be able to prevent it?"

Cassell smiled wryly. He could only say that it is really difficult to find a second team like the new Manchester United in this world. They actually have three tall and burly forwards at the same time. Among them, Crouch, despite his header, He is relatively inferior, but his skills are very good. With him supporting two powerful centers, Zikic and Kitson, even if Boston's defense is impregnable, it may be a door to victory.

After replacing Crouch and Kitson, Olic changed to the left midfielder, but he was asked by the Bruce to withdraw more in the midfield to help defend, and both sides were handed over to Hleb with excellent skills. Vidal, Distin and Stasson play three backs, so the new Manchester United's tactics have become 343.

However, Bruce's 343 move is obviously not just to strengthen the offense. Juninho retreated deeper and served as a midfielder with Paulson, but he was more responsible for organization. Olic retreated, so the defensive thickness of the new Manchester United has not declined, but the offense is obviously more threatening.

…………

…………

It's not that England's most legendary formation is 442, but England's most admired offensive method is the long pass, which is simple, direct, and threatening at the same time.

The new Manchester United only went to one bridgehead in the first half, and was watched by the two central defenders of the opponent. Therefore, Bruce simply went to three bridgeheads in the second half to see how they kept watching!

Zikic and Kitson are both players with excellent header ability and strong body. Although Crouch is not as strong as the two, his height advantage is very obvious, and his skills are excellent. , So he became a lubricant for Zikic and Kitson on the court.

Then, the new Manchester United played a long pass very thoroughly, decisively and resolutely.

Completely abandoning the area between the midfielder and 35 meters who had been stalking Boston in the first half, the three forwards of the new Manchester United kept squeezing into the penalty area, while Juninho Jr., Paulson, etc. People, as soon as they get the ball, they make a long pass to the opponent's penalty area.

The height advantage, coupled with a strong body, allows Zikic and Kitson to basically grab the first point, and then it depends on whether it is passed to Crouch who is always nearby or Hleb who is vacillating. Then the four-person team in the frontcourt will play and cooperate by themselves.

While replacing two forwards at the same time, Bruce also used this method to tell the players on the field that this game must be won!

For the impatience mentioned by the on-site commentators, Bruce has already responded. At halftime, he explained to Juninho Jr. that he will control the team's rhythm.

Juninho Jr. was a smart guy. At the beginning of the second half, seeing that the opponent was intimidated by three high center forwards, he immediately waved the flag and led his teammates to attack Boston's goal.

The Boston players who were originally deployed to defend near the midfield looked up and saw the ball flying around above their heads, but it just didn’t touch the ground. It’s just that the new Manchester United’s long pass is for offense, while Boston’s defense players have long passes. It's a rescue.

It was under such a very English-style long pass tactic that the new Manchester United blasted Boston's goal.

In the 51st minute of the second half, Kitson received a long pass from the backcourt and gave the header to Crouch nearby. The latter swung his long legs deftly and knocked the ball to Zikic next to him. The latter shot angrily at the ball , 0:1!

After scoring a goal, the new Manchester United was like a hungry tiger smelling blood, and continued to rush towards Boston with a grin.

In the 54th minute, it was still a long pass from the backcourt. Zigic headed the goal and was saved out of the penalty area by the goalkeeper. Hleb who followed behind caught the ball and passed it to the far post. Tesen scored with a header from close range, 0:2!

Conceding two consecutive goals in less than 5 minutes surprised everyone in Boston, especially after the new Manchester United took the lead, they did not weaken their offensive in the slightest, attacking as crazy as before, which made Boston's head coach a little flustered and immediately replaced him with a center. Defender, intended to fill holes in the defense.

The substitutions did help to a certain extent, but they failed to prevent the new Manchester United from continuing to attack.

At this time, Juninho played the role that a core player should play. He saw that Boston's defense had returned to order, and immediately slowed down the offensive rhythm. game rhythm.

The slowness of the new Manchester United immediately relieved the fearful Boston players, and they also began to slow down, but just when they thought that the new Manchester United was going to continue to slow down, Juninho suddenly slanted his foot The long pass was transferred to the opponent's left flank.

Hleb speeded up to catch up, stopped the ball, and made a cross. Zikic smashed the ball into the goal near the near post, 0:3!

This conceded goal made the Boston players completely lose hope of equalizing the score. Their head coach also replaced the only No. 9 forward at this time, replaced it with a defensive midfielder, and strengthened the defense. game forfeit.

In the 75th minute, Kitson scored another goal for New Manchester United and won the decisive battle with a score of 0:4, which is known as may affect the qualification for qualifying for the League C this season!
