Super Marshal

"Manchester City broke through the defense from the right."

"Let's see how Sanchez handles it this time."

"Ferdinand comes to defend, one on one."

"Sanchez made an emergency stop, accelerated, got rid of it, and passed to the back point."

"Cristiano Ronaldo..."

"Header!"

"The ball went in!!!"

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"Oh my God, that was a very typical Cristiano Ronaldo header."

"He stepped in from the back and jumped high. At that moment, he almost seemed to have stopped in mid-air. His jumping ability was so good and his staying time in the air was long enough. This makes people wonder, if he didn't kick As for football, can I play basketball?”

"The Portuguese superstar felt like he was grabbing a rope in mid-air, and the angle of his header was also very tricky. Van der Sar reacted in time this time, but he still couldn't stop the Portuguese from heading the ball into the goal."

"Let's take a look at the slow-motion replay of the entire scoring process."

"Sanchez's breakthrough on the right was very sharp, he is not tall, but he is very fast and has very good skills at his feet. After passing two Manchester United players in a row, he cooperated with Benzema like a wall, entered the penalty area and defeated Ferdinand alone. "

"Judging from the entire defensive process, Ferdinand seemed to be affected by the injury just now, and his movements were somewhat stagnant. Only then was he easily broken through by Sanchez. But anyway, this attack by the Chilean winger was very beautiful."

"Of course, Cristiano Ronaldo's header was also fantastic."

"I doubt if O'Shea was thinking after Cristiano Ronaldo's header, how could you jump so high? You embarrass me, you know? Haha..."

Cristiano Ronaldo's goal completely ignited the enthusiasm of the City Stadium.

All the fans rushed out of their seats, shouting the Portuguese's name crazily, as if praising the savior, sending Cristiano Ronaldo to the altar.

This goal is really important to Manchester City.

The Portuguese rushed out of the stadium in one breath and rushed to the sidelines. The Manchester City players surrounding him also swarmed up and surrounded him. Sanchez even jumped on Cristiano Ronaldo and hugged him. .

After Gao Han saw the goal on the sidelines, he danced excitedly, waved his arms, cheered a few times, then turned around and hugged his assistants one by one to celebrate.

This is the offense he wants.

As early as the halftime break, the task he gave Sanchez was to launch a breakthrough from the right. The reason was as he said in the locker room. Manchester United's defensive formation was impossible to defend in all directions. Since the focus was on Christie's Arno Ronaldo's left, then the right must be empty and weak.

At the beginning of the second half, Sanchez's performance was not ideal. Although he had many chances to get the ball, he failed to bring enough threats to Manchester United's left wing. Gao Han was indeed a little dissatisfied, but his performance in the past few minutes has seemed more active. many.

Thinking of this, Gao Han turned his head and glanced at Gareth Bale, who was still warming up in the distance, and smiled secretly in his heart.

This is the benefit of having competitive pressure within the team.

Gareth Bale and Sturridge are working hard to get more playing opportunities, and even play the main role, so whether they are training or playing, they will go all out, and for Sanchez, who is playing the main role, chasing two A teammate who is known as a wolf and a tiger, if he doesn't work hard in front, he will be dragged off the field sooner or later.

"The old man should make adjustments, right?" Gao Han turned his head and glanced at the visiting team's coaching bench. Ferguson was still sitting in the coaching bench, and it seemed like there was no movement.

But Gao Han is very sure that Ferguson is definitely not in a relaxed mood at this moment.

"Substitution?" Brian Kidd asked.

Gao Han nodded, "Berbatov was like an invisible man throughout the game. It's time to quit."

The Bulgarian center's performance this season is indeed good, especially in the Premier League, but in some major games, his problems over the years have still not improved. For example, in this game, he seemed very mediocre.

In Ferguson's words, Xiaosha lacks courage and responsibility.

Players like Berbatov are often more suitable for teams with less pressure, such as Tottenham Hotspur or Everton, but in a Champions League team like Manchester United, He is basically not favored.

With Manchester United's level of strength, Berbatov can perform brilliant games, and Ferguson does not need to worry about offensive problems at all. However, in some key games where Ferguson needs him to stand up, he is like an invisible man, which is disappointing. .

"Who will be replaced?" Brian Kidd asked again.

Gao Han shook his head, unsure of Ferguson's intentions.

…………

…………

At this moment, Ferguson was indeed as Gao Han expected. He seemed calm, but in fact he was turbulent inside.

From one to zero to one to one, Manchester United lost their advantage from leading to being equalized, which was a big blow to the Red Devils.

There is about half an hour left in the game, and with Manchester City's strong attacking power, anything can still happen.

It’s time to change someone!

Ferguson was very sure, and the one he wanted to replace was Berbatov.

Who can be replaced?

this is a problem.

On the bench of Manchester United, there are players such as Park Ji-sung, Valencia, Giggs, Scholes, etc. Some are both offensive and defensive, and some are inclined to offensive organization. Different players often pass on different players on the field. signal of.

Ferguson himself tends to attack, and Giggs and Scholes are his first choices. These two players can solve the team's problem of passing the ball in the middle to the maximum extent. Rooney and Tevez can be used as top players. This will Make the team's offense more threatening.

But the problem is, now that Manchester City has just equalized the score and their morale is high, strengthening the offense at this time is tantamount to fighting against each other. Isn't this asking for death?

No matter how confident Ferguson is about his team, he can't possibly think that Manchester United's offense can match Manchester City's, right?

Given the disparity in lineup strength between the two sides and the fact that Manchester City has Gao Han, the best offensive coach in the world, it would be crazy to attack Manchester City at this time.

But if you don't attack, you can only defend and play Park Ji-sung.

Thinking of this, Ferguson immediately stood up from his position, called assistant coach Mike Perrin over and asked him to go over and make arrangements.

After sending away his assistant, Ferguson looked towards the court again and noticed Berbatov at the front of the striker, his brows furrowed.

The Bulgarian striker must be capable. Otherwise, Ferguson would not have abandoned Benzema and introduced him to Manchester United. However, judging from his performance at these times, he will undoubtedly not be a qualified candidate for Manchester United's front line.

Originally, Ferguson's hope for him was to be able to withstand the opponent's central defender in the frontcourt, receive passes from the midfield and backfield, create opportunities for Rooney and Tevez to attack from behind, and enrich the team's offensive routine. His performance was disappointing.

Maybe it's time to consider other options.

Ferguson thought with some disappointment, especially when he saw Benzema on the opposite side of the lineup, he felt even more disappointed.

If he had been willing to spend more money to bring in Benzema from Lyon, then this problem would not exist at all now.

Looking at Benzema's outstanding performance at Manchester City in the past two seasons, Ferguson felt regretful, angry and admired.

What I admire is Gao Han's vision. From Carrick to Matic to Pepe to Mkhitaryan to Benzema, Gao Han has never made a mistake. How can Ferguson not admire this?

…………

Manchester United made substitutions in the 68th minute.

South Korean player Park Ji-sung replaced Bulgarian center Berbatov.

This was not surprising at all. Even Berbatov himself was not surprised at all. As soon as he saw the number plate on the sidelines, he immediately walked off the court, hugged Park Ji-sung, and then walked towards Ferguson.

The two simply said hello, and Berbatov sat directly back on the bench.

The live TV camera also specially gave a close-up of the Bulgarian center. From the expression on his face, you can easily see the word loneliness, because he knows what will be waiting for him after he is replaced at this moment.

After Park Ji-sung came on, he played on the left. Rooney was moved to the front line. Tevez played in the forward position in the midfield. Mkhitaryan switched to the right. It was obvious that Rooney was shouldering the offensive burden and catching Vertonghen. loopholes.

"This is the first substitution adjustment of this game."

"Ferguson obviously felt that his midfielder should be more cautious. He replaced the sluggish Berbatov with Park Ji-sung and asked Mkhitaryan to go to the right. This was to appropriately sacrifice the penetration of the offense to ensure the ball. The team's midfield is balanced, and Park Ji-sung will contribute more defensively and be able to better help defend Leighton Bynes."

"Mkhitaryan was very active in this game and can play any position in the midfield or frontcourt. He is very comprehensive, so Vertonghen cannot be careless."

"It should be said that Ferguson's substitution reflects his skills as a master-level head coach. He is very stable. Through substitutions and position changes, he ensures the balance of the team's midfield and frontcourt and re-injects vitality into the team. "

After Ferguson made the substitution, Gao Han also made substitution adjustments in less than two minutes.

James Milner replaced David Silva, who was almost exhausted. The Spanish midfielder performed pretty well in this game. Gao Han replaced Milner at this time and also appropriately strengthened the midfield interception. Ability considerations.

After the two teams took turns to make substitutions, the situation on the field was still under control of Manchester City, but after Milner came on, Gao Han asked Xavi Alonso and Modric to retreat appropriately, focusing on the midline. Defend the area.

Ferguson quickly made a second substitution adjustment, replacing Mkhitaryan with Giggs.

If Park Ji-sung was playing to strengthen defense, then Giggs was playing this time to strengthen offense and make the midfield pass more penetrating. Giggs is undoubtedly a good player in this regard.

But Gao Han also quickly made the second adjustment of the game, replacing Sanchez with Gareth Bale.

The Welshman performed very well in the Champions League this season and was also very good in the Premier League. In addition, he is a local player and received cheers and encouragement from the fans as soon as he came on the field.

After Sanchez created the equalizing goal, it was acceptable to be substituted. Moreover, his state was indeed not particularly active in this game. The few consecutive sprints just now consumed a lot of his physical energy, and now he is somewhat unable to rush forward. .

After being substituted, Gao Han hugged Sanchez and praised his performance in this game. He said that his substitution was purely for tactical considerations, so that he did not need to think too much.

The two famous coaches exchanged substitutions with the obvious purpose of reorganizing the team's offensive and defensive lineup.

By the time the substitutions were made, it was already seventy-five minutes.
