1106 Dreaming of the Bernabeu!(1/2)

Liverpool's offense was hardly harassed by Manchester United when it advanced to the frontcourt.

Manchester United is not Manchester City, they tend to defend statically rather than take the initiative.

In the 5th minute of the game, Henderson pulled the side in the frontcourt and went to the right. After cooperating with Mbappe, he successfully met in the sidewalk outside the penalty area. Mbappe cut inside the right side of the penalty area and led Luke Xiao to return to defend and retreat into the penalty area.

Henderson took the opportunity to send a diagonal plug.

Mbappe, who was originally in the inward cutting position, immediately changed direction and cross-cut.

Everyone thought it would be Mbappe to pick up Henderson's diagonal pass, but Lewandowski penetrated the right rib of the penalty area in the middle of the penalty area.

Blind immediately rushed to follow up the blockade of Lewandowski's passing angle, which was considered to be a fair rule.

However, when Lewandowski touched the ball, he pulled the distance from Blind to the side steering wheel and controlled the ball and adjusted the direction. When Blind rushed towards him, Lewandowski passed the ball diagonally to the right in front of the penalty area.

Eriksen's forward insertion was dragged by Mike and followed closely. There is a reason why this Manchester United young player was valued by Mourinho. At least his diligent attitude is lacking in many Manchester United stars, such as Sanchez, Pogba, and Martial.

It is obvious that Mourinho's favor for blue-collar fighters is far more than his superstition about stars.

It can be said that McTominai blocked the line and forced Lewandowski to pass the ball to the second-choice teammate.

Henderson cut across and received the ball and sent a pass directly.

Mbappe had previously cut across the middle and attracted Smalling to defend, and there was a gap in the left hinterland of the penalty area.

Sane quickly cut inside and won the pass to meet Henderson. Sane scored a goal with a volley, and Sane was sure to win the ball. Liverpool's offensive routine was also very easy to play!

Perhaps Manchester United's defense line still looks a bit fragile. Manchester United's defensive data performance this season is ranked third in the league, not much worse than Manchester City, but offense and defense cannot be measured simply by data, the data is just a reference.

When De Gea appears in front of the goal line and blocks Sane's pad shot from the bottom line, many viewers may not be surprised!

They will be surprised when De Gea is no longer magical!

A goalkeeper from Manchester United can support half of the team's defense!

So Manchester United's defensive data is due to De Gea!

"Sane's volley was blocked by De Gea from the bottom line!

Liverpool created a threatening shot in its first attack!

We are not unfamiliar with such a scene, and Sane's handling of this ball is basically fine, but De Gea's position selection and reaction are very fast. If Manchester United is the first in the Premier League in any position, then there is only the goalkeeper!

De Gea is the well-deserved No. 1 goalkeeper in the Premier League!”

Situ Yunbing's face was not changed, neither excited nor disappointed. He didn't make the ball, and he didn't make it.

This can only be considered a regular operation by Liverpool!

Mourinho also showed a very calm and steady attitude, as if it was not Manchester United's goal that was threatened just now.

Liverpool's corner kick was taken, and the tactical corner kick was scored to the outside and Robertson completed a long shot.

This long shot was also pretty good, but De Gea confiscated both hands in the left position in the middle of the goal.

When De Gea hugged the football, Liverpool returned to defense at the full range, and the forward and midfielder pressed and harassed the frontcourt in an orderly manner.

But Situ Yunbing couldn't help but frown when he was on the sidelines.

After he commanded more than 500 or 600 games on the spot, he was already aware of some of the situations in the game. Once the game trend was unfamiliar to him, he would have a strong natural reaction.

At the same time, quickly investigate points and conditions that exceed expectations in the changes in the situation.

De Gea held the football and did not drive the ball. He looked calm and did not grab the time, but the Manchester United players were actively running.

Lukaku and Rashford are the front line to strike forward. The two of them quickly run forward without looking back, which forces Liverpool's midfielders and defenders to retreat quickly and do not care about observing the situation, because no matter how the situation changes, they must first stand on their position and control the area, and then have the opportunity to defend.

If you are not in the position, it will be useless even if you know how to defend.

The Liverpool midfielder originally wanted to control and kill the opponent's midfielder and wide players, and no matter how bad it was, it would have to delay. However, when Herrera on Manchester United was also moving forward quickly, the Liverpool midfielder would naturally retreat to the running position.

So Manchester United's backcourt space appeared.

De Gea threw the ball at this time and headed towards the side. Luke Xiao Gang stopped the ball. Mbappe quickly stepped forward and counterattacked. Luke Xiao passed the ball diagonally to the front right. After Mbappe turned around, he suddenly saw Blind running quickly forward and started dribbling.

If this situation is not enough to indicate that Manchester United's counterattack has changed, what if everyone sees Smalling also running forward quickly?

What about when Matic is also running forward quickly?

What about when McTominay is also running forward?

According to Mourinho's coaching style, it is reasonable for a forward, an offensive midfielder, and even an offensive full-back to rush to the frontcourt when counterattacking.

However, when Situ Yunbing saw Manchester United's moves from forward to midfield to defender, almost all three-line strikers showed off their counterattacks and running positions, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and felt incredible!

Liverpool's defense adopts layers of encirclement to curb and destroy the opponent's most likely ball-handling players, so Manchester City's midfield can be blocked by them, and the same goes for other opponents.

As the head coach, I must also hope that the players in the team who have the most overall vision will organize the offensive, and other players will run and take the lead!

Manchester United's organizer today is naturally Herrera!

If the pusher who hits the wing is Rashford, Ashley Young!

But when Blinder pushed the offense to the halftime and hit Henderson, he knocked the ball across the middle, Herrera, who was the first to run to the center circle, began to control the ball, and everything seemed to be back on track.

But the situation in the next second did not return to "normal" as Situ Yunbing expected!

Blind continues to move forward!

Matic also continued to move forward when Herrera stopped to pick up, and McTominai was the same. What made Situ Yunbing even more uneasy was that Smallin was also moving forward and quickly!

If Rashford and Lukaku are included, as many as 6 Manchester United players rushed to Liverpool's 30-yard defense dangerous area in front of the goal!

Liverpool's forward has obviously lost its role in defense!

And when Erickson rushed towards Herrera for a press, Herrera transferred the ball to the right.

Ashley Young did not continue to step forward, but responded on the sidelines of the frontcourt.

At this time, the audience saw several Manchester United defensive players rushing behind Liverpool’s defense!

Like a group of beasts rushing!

Liverpool's defense line quickly retreated, but even Van Dijk, who was used to the strong winds and waves, was a little indifferent!

Staring?

Who should he keep a fucking eye on?

Lukaku? What to do with Rashford who cuts the Neck? What to do with Matic?

What should Smalling do?

And McTomina!

Liverpool's defense can only adopt a strategy of contraction!

At this time, Sane returned to the sideline to defend and counterattack Ashley Young, who shortly passed the ball to the front, and Valencia quickly killed him!

Ashley Young retreated, Herrera was in front of the central circle, Luke Shaw was on standby. When Valencia responded forward, Ashley Young had already retreated to the rear of the central line. Ashley Young, Luke Shaw, and Herrera formed a long-distance triangular stance system!

While Valencia dribbled in the frontcourt and entered the offensive dangerous area, many Manchester United players had all entered Liverpool's penalty area!

If it weren't for seeing it with your own eyes, I believe many viewers would not be able to believe that Liverpool actually lags behind their opponents in counterattack defense!

This is incredible!

Liverpool wanted to contain it layer by layer, but the center of gravity of blocking the opponent was completely wrong!

Manchester United's progress is orderly!

Liverpool is not defenseless, but Manchester City's counterattack attack is indeed magnificent, which immediately made the hearts of all the fans of the game.

Situ Yunbing suddenly woke up!

This scene seems familiar!

Valencia made a cross from the side!

The football fell quickly after passing an arc in Liverpool's penalty area!

Van Dijk moved quickly toward the football landing point, but he was blocked by Lukaku!

Van Dijk, who barely jumped and tried to head the ball to clear the ball, finally emerged!

Because it is not the landing point, the jumping height is not enough, so it is naturally impossible to solve the problem!

But Van Dijk knew that he wouldn't have a chance if he didn't take off!

When the football was headed by Matic in the back of the penalty area and headed towards the middle of the goal, Van Dijk happened to fall, and the football flew to the side from above his head!

Kulibali also wanted to go to the football landing point to clear the ball, but just after running, someone rushed to the top and attacked the goal first!

Blind!

The Dutch iron guard headed the ball towards the upper right corner of the goal!

The distance was too close, and Ter Stegen subconsciously reached out to block the block but failed to touch the football!

The moment the football flew into Liverpool's goal, Van Dijk immediately yelled at the referee, accusing Manchester United of having a player blocking him just now, which was a foul!

But the referee's finger circled to indicate that the goal was valid!

The Reds fans were dumbfounded at the New Wembley Stadium!
To be continued...
