In fact, many people know that Ibrahimovic is very strong in mobile warfare, his footwork is extremely delicate, his shooting skills are quite superb, and he can complete many incredible goals. He is almost a perfect striker.

But apart from his ability in mobile warfare, his skills in set pieces, especially long-distance free kicks, should not be underestimated.

But Wei Le did not expect that he would dare to shoot a free kick nearly 30 meters away from the goal. And he really played such a quality free kick.

In any case, the loss of the ball was within the expectations of the Wolves.

Especially when the opponent is Manchester United, Wei Le never dared to expect to be able to shut out the opponent. It is normal to be scored a goal, and Wei Le does not plan to make adjustments for the time being.

In fact, so far, although Manchester United is the dominant side in terms of the scene, and Manchester United is also the first to gain the advantage in terms of the score, the situation of the game is not one-sided.

In the process of the two sides being entangled in the midfield, Fellaini and De Paul were entangled, and the confrontation was win-lose, and Wei Le had other ideas about Pogba.

Pogba is the core of Manchester United's offensive process. He is the most creative link, but at the same time, he is also the most exploitable link. Wei Le regards Pogba as the focus of Wolves' counterattack.

From an overall strategic perspective, Wolves now have two choices.

One is to follow Mourinho's intention and take the initiative to launch an offensive against Manchester United; the other is to try to retain the current one-goal advantage, defend tightly, and drag the score to 90 minutes as much as possible.

Wei Le chose the former, in fact, he had no choice. But in any case, Wei Le would rather fall on the way to charge than passively take a beating.

In the 27th minute, Wolves passed the ball back and forth around Manchester United's penalty area to mobilize the opponent's defense. After the attack failed, Wolves passed the ball back to Rodri who stayed at the front of the center circle.

Rodri took a step forward and passed the ball over the top to Manchester United's penalty area!

Haaland's eyes lit up. He was now standing in the center of Manchester United's four defenders, that is, between the two central defenders. This long pass was for his head.

So Haaland glanced to both sides. Phil Jones beside him seemed to want to compete with Haaland for the ball, while Smalling seemed to have no intention of jumping and stood aside to protect.

Then he glanced behind him. It seemed that there were no teammates in the penalty area, but he was now facing the goal, and Van der Beck in front of him made a hidden gesture.

Since it is a one-on-one, don't blame me for being rude!

Haaland jumped up first!

Phil Jones saw the young striker who was taller than him jumping high, and he felt something was wrong. He wanted to jump up quickly, but was supported by Haaland's arms. Phil Jones jumped very awkwardly, and of course he couldn't jump high.

Jones wore a "pain mask" and watched Haaland jump up beside him. At the highest point, he was almost one meter higher than himself!

Jones fell first, and Haaland was still floating in the air!

Damn, does he have wings?

Haaland won control of the ball almost without any pressure. He did not choose to head the ball, but used his chest to take it off.

So light, so easy.

The football seemed so obedient in front of Haaland, the behemoth. It hit Haaland's chest heavily, but when the ball fell to the ground, it seemed to be slowed down by bouncing on a sponge.

Haaland landed calmly, and then pushed the ball to Van der Beck in front of him with the arch of his foot!

Van der Beck did not make any adjustments, just raised his leg and shot!

"Van der Beck's long shot! There is a chance--!!!!"

Van der Beck's shot was a "ground cut", he controlled the angle of the shot well, and the ball he pulled out flew to the far corner of the goal along the horizon!

De Gea was very focused, he flew sideways and blocked the ball with one hand. The ball was not out of bounds, but in the end Jota had no chance to grab the ball, and it was the Manchester United player who cleared the ball to the front court.

"With a sudden shot, Van der Beck almost expanded Wolves' lead." Martin Taylor was very excited. Today's game was not a one-sided suppression scene, but a back-and-forth offensive and defensive scene. Which commentator would not want to see such a wonderful game?

"But for this ball, we first need to see Haaland's outrageous ability to stay in the air. He almost flew up with Phil Jones on his back. Phil Jones seemed to be hanging a weight in front of him, looking extremely heavy!"

"He has shown such a dominant physical fitness at the age of 16. He must be able to adapt to the competitive environment of the Premier League soon, or in other words, he has already adapted to the competitive environment of the Premier League."

"Secondly, Van der Beck's shot is really commendable. If it weren't for De Gea's heroic performance, I'm afraid Manchester United would have to face the dilemma of still falling behind by two goals in the total score! "

In the 31st minute, Wolves launched an attack from the left.

Manchester United's formation shrank quickly, and Wolves had to face the situation of fewer players in the frontcourt. Facing the well-organized back line, Wolves chose to pass the midfield quickly!

This time, it was left-back Godfrey who was in an inside position, and he directly chose a diagonal pass! And this ball happened to be received by Van der Beck who was temporarily unguarded!

Facing Smalling's blockade this time, Van der Beck had to shoot with his left foot. The quality of this ball was not high, and De Gea held it firmly in his arms.

"Paul, what are you doing? "

Van de Beek was still upset, while Carrick beside him had already begun to criticize Pogba's defense.

The reason why Van de Beek was able to shoot in such a dangerous area at the top of the penalty area was because Pogba, who was running side by side with him, was far behind after Van de Beek's sprint.

Seeing Van de Beek's two shooting attempts, Wei Le's eyes lit up.

Pogba's insufficient contribution in the defensive stage and the problem of low defensive running volume were exposed!

Although it was a defensive counterattack, Mourinho's Manchester United was not the kind of bus mode with 11 people piled in the backcourt. If you analyze the heat map of the stadium area, you will find that Ibrahimovic generally does not appear in the midfield.

Which I'm afraid that in the stage of parking the bus, Ibrahimovic will still stand firmly in the front position of the midfield.

It is hard to say whether it is Mourinho's own arrangement or Ibrahimovic's personal wish, but in any case, Ibrahimovic will basically not help Manchester United's defense.

And passing through the midfield line, although there are Carrick, an all-around midfielder, and Fellaini, a Belgian "beast waist", Pogba can only jog back and chase, and basically can't be stopped.

For a strong midfielder like Fellaini, the way to deal with him is to bypass him.

The ball moves faster than people. Since you Fellaini have a large coverage area, I will quickly pass through your area and specifically attack Pogba.

"What a poisonous vision." Seeing the two threatening opportunities caused by Pogba's two defensive misalignments, Mourinho stomped his feet angrily, and at the same time, he had to sigh that Wei Le really caught the Achilles' heel of Manchester United's defensive stage.

This offensive routine, if it is not Wei Le's own special arrangement, Mourinho doesn't believe it!
