The biggest fanatic in football

Chapter 22 No reversal, no red devil!

"Relax, it's not a big deal."

On the visiting team's coaching bench, Manchester United coach Louis van Gaal put his hands in his pockets and crossed his legs, looking calm and calm.

The assistant coach beside him, Ryan Giggs, had to resist the urge to stand up and give instructions, and stayed in his seat to watch the game.

While the two sides were preparing for a corner kick, Giggs looked through the player information of both sides.

New Wimbledon's midfielders are generally average in height, most are under 1.8 meters tall, and only two center backs are 1.88 meters tall.

Among Manchester United's starting eleven, only Kagawa and Hernandez are under 1.8 meters tall. The height advantage is not too obvious!

Giggs glanced at Van Gaal and nodded thoughtfully:

[Why didn’t I consider such a simple question? 】

[I am still too inexperienced, Van Gaal deserves to be a world-famous coach!]

【Nothing to worry about.】

Then they saw the New Wimbledon players take a corner kick, the ball spun and flew up, bypassing five or six players crowded at the near post, and then dropped at the far post...

A blue figure jumped high in front of the Manchester United players, and as if he had made precise calculations, he faced the falling ball and tipped it gently towards the goal.

Then... Van Gaal and Giggs saw De Gea's helpless expression as he struggled to move.

[Negative sentiment from David De Gea, 2!]

2:0!

Giggs almost jumped out of his seat and looked at the home team players who were celebrating crazily with a look of shock on his face.

Van Gaal was still much calmer than him, but at some point he put away his crossed legs.

【Ryan Giggs,2!】

【Louis van Gaal,3!】

"Beautiful header! Manchester United suffered continuous blows!"

Lineker's voice rose three notches:

"Only 7 minutes into the game, Manchester United was scored twice by their opponents!"

Looking at the replay on the screen, Neville shook his head repeatedly:

"Manchester United's defense focused entirely on the two tall centre-backs, and almost no one noticed the inconspicuous full-back!"

That "unremarkable full-back" was running all the way to the corner flag area at this moment, and jumped directly on the body of Rigg, the hero of the assist:

"Man, the transmission is so beautiful!"

Rigg hugged him hard, laughed and boasted:

"I'm Beckham at Wimbledon. Isn't this kind of passing simple?"

-

Compared to the players on the court, the coaches on the sidelines seemed less excited.

Adray grabbed Cox's arm:

"Brother, help me quickly, I feel a little dizzy!"

Cox also lost his footing:

"I can't stand either!"

With the help of the team doctor, the two people reluctantly sat back on their seats.

Adele forced himself to calm down, but his bright eyes betrayed his mood:

"Tell the boys that we will defend and counterattack next!"

He glanced at his assistant:

"Go quickly!"

Cox pouted and put his hands on his knees:

"I, my legs are weak and I can't get up!"

-

"Manchester United's corner kick defense was so amateurish!"

Zhan Jun, thousands of miles away, criticized unceremoniously:

"As long as they carefully review their opponent's previous games, they will never miss this point of Lee Polo!

The reason why New Wimbledon was able to appear in the second round of the League Cup was because Lee Polo's header at the last minute beat Milton Keynes!"

He was right to criticize, but as a commentator, he still tried to maintain a neutral stance. After all, most of the people watching the game at this time were Manchester United fans:

"After conceding two goals in seven minutes, Manchester United should be completely awake now. Although they are rotating the lineup, as long as they stop underestimating their opponents and go all out, the gap between the two goals is not irreversible!"

-

As the commentators thought, United were quick to seek change.

Assistant coach Giggs immediately turned on the "hair dryer mode" and stood on the sidelines and yelled:

"Cheer up, everyone! Attack, attack! Charge me!"

After all, the new season has just begun, and every player is looking forward to giving their best performance in front of the new coach. After a brief period of frustration, they began to attack with all their strength.

Being two goals behind is not scary at all. Manchester United fans all know a saying:

"If you don't reverse it, you are not a red devil!"

Bayern Munich and Juventus fans know this very well!

Fans in the British Isles also know very well that Manchester United has its own reversal attributes!

The game has just begun, and Manchester United still has a lot of time to complete the reversal!

-

Facing Manchester United's fierce offensive, the players of New Wimbledon completed their formation changes without the need for instructions from the coach.

The four defenders retreated as a whole, and the four midfielders formed a second barrier at the front of the penalty area. The two forwards turned into guerrilla knights, harassing and forcing Manchester United's midfield and backfield at any time, so that their ball carrier would not be too comfortable.

.

But despite this, facing the speed impact of Welbeck and Hernandez, combined with Shinji Kagawa's interspersed movements, the English second-level team still felt huge pressure.

In the 13th minute, Shinji Kagawa sent a sharp through ball. Welbeck got rid of Phillips and formed a single goal. Facing Shea who abandoned the goal and blocked it, "Black Bay" volleyed into the stands, wasting his first goal of the game.

Two excellent opportunities.

Van Gaal finally looked better.

Giggs also nodded:

"That's right. Even with the substitute lineup, our strength is completely superior to theirs!"

The home team took a breath of air.

Cox frowned:

"Welbeck's speed is indeed too fast, and it is difficult for Mark to guard against him."

Ardley sees further than his assistant:

"The key is the through ball from Japan's attacking midfielder! If his performance cannot be restricted, such dangers will happen again and again!"

Cox nodded:

"I will ask the midfielder to take extra care of him!"

He gritted his teeth and said "care" with extra force.

Within a few minutes, Shinji Kagawa felt the enthusiasm from the home team players. He had just turned around to receive a direct pass from the backcourt. Before he could turn around, he was kicked on the ankle by Boorman, and he immediately lost the ball.

.

"referee!"

Kagawa limped around and looked around, wanting to complain to the referee, but the referee took three steps back without any response, not giving him a chance to speak.

Giggs on the sidelines was not happy. He went to the fourth official and complained, but the latter was also indifferent:

"It was just a common foul."

Manchester United got a chance to take a free kick in the frontcourt, but the penalty kick was more than 30 meters away from the goal. There was no possibility of a direct shot. Wimbledon only had Akinfenwa and Dubis as two forwards lined up symbolically.

Walls can hardly block even the other party's sight.

Nicholas Powell didn't think much and directly passed the ball into the penalty area. However, he obviously underestimated the strength of the home team's goalkeeper. Shea jumped high in front of a group of defenders and held the ball firmly.

"Fight back!"

After landing, Shea didn't hesitate at all and threw the ball forward with all his strength, accurately finding the two forwards who were acting as a wall.

Akinfenwa perfectly suppressed Evans, who was trying to compete, and passed the throw to his strike partner Dubis, who took advantage of the situation and passed through the gap between Evans and Vermeer.

Breaking into Manchester United's half!

The atmosphere of the stadium suddenly reached a climax!

Manchester United's defense failed to stop Dubis at the first opportunity, and the three defenders could only pursue frantically while pinning their hopes on the final goalkeeper.

De Gea is worthy of being the second most valuable goalkeeper in football. Seeing Dubis crossing the center circle alone, he did not leave his battlefield easily, but calmly stayed in the small penalty area.

The most important thing to deal with a one-on-one ball is momentum. After Dubis ran for nearly fifty meters, it was difficult to maintain the initial rhythm. However, with the defender chasing after him, he could not adjust his pace and could only start hastily.

foot!

The 24-year-old De Gea is at his peak. Known for his reactions and positioning, he made the most accurate save, holding the football firmly in his arms and not giving Dubis any chance.

"Why!"

Adelai waved his hand regretfully, and the dream of a three-goal lead was shattered.

There was nothing we could do about it. This counterattack was too fast. There were only two forwards at the front of Wimbledon. And with Akinfenwa's speed, it was impossible to provide effective support to Dubis. Dubis could only

Choose to work alone.

Dubis, whose legs were weak, shook his head and watched De Gea move forward with his big feet. He could only breathe heavily.

The ball crossed more than half of the field and found the core of Manchester United's offense in this game - Shinji Kagawa!

Kagawa looked up and observed the ball's flight path while retreating with his back to the home team's goal. When he was about to reach the landing point, he felt he hit a wall.

Li Polo, who was guarding the right wing, arrived at the landing point one step ahead of him.

Seeing the pass that was about to fly over his head, Kagawa could only lean on his opponent and forcefully take off!

But... the moment he was about to leave the ground and take off into the air, Li Polo took a step back!

After losing his support, Kagawa Shinji failed to reach the height he wanted, but fell heavily to the ground!

De Gea's long ball failed to pose any threat, but flew directly out of the sideline, giving Wimbledon players a chance to breathe.

Adele clearly saw the action just now and couldn't help but praise:

"This little guy...is using his brain to defend!"

Cox was about to chime in when he saw Kagawa lying on the ground slowly raising his right hand.

The Manchester United core twisted his ankle when he landed and he couldn't hold on!
