496. Derby 4

Van Gaal no longer shouted or screamed on the sidelines. When his anger was vented, he quickly calmed down.

Manchester City got a set-piece opportunity in the frontcourt due to Smalling's foul. It was less than 30 yards away from the goal and the position was OK. De Bruyne stood at the free throw point.

“1,2,3!”

He ran as he stepped on the stairs, as if he was trying to show his skills in the full moon scimitar, but in fact he gave him a violent slash!

Wen Sheng does not agree with his choice. The distance of the ball is more suitable for arcing, falling leaves, etc. The distance to the goal is good, but the coach is not the biggest on the court, but the player is the biggest!

The ball penetrated the soles of Manchester United's walls as De Bruyne imagined, but the angle was completely missed, which was much biased. De Bruyne's set-piece was a failed work.

De Bruyne shook his head, too, to show his dissatisfaction with handling the ball.

Van Gaal withdrew his eyes and thought with the assistant coach on the sidelines what to do?!

This answer is easy to come up with. Manchester United, who is one goal behind, has no other way except to counterattack against defensively.

He didn't know how to evaluate Manchester City's tactics in this game at this time. He originally thought that Manchester City would try to control it in such an important game. It has to be said that Wen Sheng's changing tactics over the years have brought him some troubles.

Many media can see this season that Manchester City's tactics are approaching simplification, the ball passing speed has begun to accelerate, and the offense has begun to become casual and direct. Due to the large number of injuries and shortages of their personnel, the offense has always been unreliable, but the changes are indeed obvious.

However, Van Gaal believes that Wen Sheng is as cunning as a fox. He often adopts a steady attitude when facing a strong team, and occasionally adopts relatively radical tactics. Therefore, he feels that Manchester City can control it, can complete absolute control of the ball rights, and put pressure step by step to eat Manchester United.

Manchester City did do the same in the tentative stage of the game, but soon they changed their style and began to move forward with high-level defensive formations and accelerated the offensive rhythm. For Van Gaal, his understanding at that time might not be a bad thing. He had no confidence in his midfield interception ability and control ability. Fast transfer and frequent exchange of ball rights may be beneficial to Manchester United.

However, it seems that this is not a good thing now! Manchester City's frontcourt players with more direct play are indeed too excellent, with a high degree of tacit understanding, but they are not good on their own.

Van Gaal believes that Manchester City may adopt a more stable offensive model next.

What surprised Wensheng was that Van Gaal did not make substitution adjustments. He allowed Fellaini to move to the central defender position, and Rooney and Blinder played in double midfield.

Januzai performed poorly and expressed his pleasure that he would continue to stay on the court.

Then Manchester City's combat mode was as Van Gaal expected. They changed their faces and "dragged" in offense. However, this is exactly what Van Gaal wants. Both sides can't fight against Manchester City with bayonets. Now, counterattacking in such a passive defensive state is the best offensive method.

Van Gaal is very conceited, but not stupid. If he keeps the current score over, it is acceptable to him, Manchester United players and Manchester United fans, but losing too much, which is really too harmful to morale, so the defense cannot tolerate him not paying attention to it.

"The running speed of the ball in Manchester City has dropped. The high-intensity sprint in front should be slowed down now, otherwise, if you continue like this, they will not be able to stand in the second half!" Coach Zhang knew the idea of ​​Manchester City playing, so he slowly slaughtered Manchester United.

Manchester City's Moogong, Manchester United is still very hard-working. The players did not lose their fighting spirit because of a goal concealed and Smalling's sent-off. The meaning of the derby gives them a different experience.

They tried hard to grab the ball, but the effect was very small. Manchester City was not impatient. De Bruyne even communicated with his teammates on the court without rushing, trying to slowly erase his opponent's fighting spirit.

By the end of the first half, Manchester United is still alive.

Of course, there are sporadic opportunities here in Manchester City. As for Manchester United, they didn't even shoot once after Smalling was sent off, this is really bad.

The midfield whistle sounded, and Milner immediately "talks" to Oliver, and Wen Sheng was waiting for Oliver to come near the center circle.

"Man, you made a big mistake today! Suarez's goal was 100% good goal!" Wen Sheng said to Oliver. He was not angry, but just told a fact calmly.

"You see the replay?! Are you so sure?!" Oliver asked.

Wen Sheng was stunned. According to the FA's regulations, the head coach could not watch the replay on the sidelines, but Manchester City did it secretly today.

"I didn't watch the replay! But my vision is good, and my angle is good! I can be sure that this is definitely a mistake!"

"This must be a misjudgment!" Milner also shouted.

Rooney passed by the side at this time and deliberately walked slowly, as if he wanted to catch some handle.

Oliver said righteously: "If you are dissatisfied with my punishment, you can appeal to the referee committee within 24 hours! Now I hope we can stop this topic!"

After saying that, he speeded up and walked back to the locker room quickly.

"What are you looking at?!" Milner shouted at Rooney.

"I just want to see what the hell is going to do with you and the referee!" Rooney stared at Milner with his neck.

"We have an act! The fuck, who is having an act with him?! We scored a goal, and Smalling was fouled first, and Suarez also received a yellow card warning! Any blind man he leaned towards can be seen!" Milner and Rooney were in a fierce quarrel.

If you slander me and I slander you, it is hard to imagine that these two are teammates of the national team.

Wensheng pulled Milner into the locker room, "Stop talking! They are mad dogs now, whoever they catch and bite! It's meaningless to have these urges with them!"

"I just can't stand his bird-like appearance?! He clearly wants to eavesdrop on what we say?! He wants to catch us! Maybe he will complain to us behind the scenes!"

Hey, Milner has a lot of thoughts.

Wen Sheng laughed in silence, "He is your national teammate!"

"The national team is one thing, but now it is another!" Milner disagreed. It sounded like his relationship with Rooney could only be said to be average.

Sometimes I have to say that Milner is indeed very smart. When he ends up, he is not just trying to talk to Oliver. Several other teammates also want to talk to Oliver, but they are all driven away by Milner. He negotiates by himself and doesn't want to leave too many talks to others.

"No matter what, I told Oliver that he would definitely watch the replay when he returned to the locker room. He would not be so bold in finding a balance in the second half!" Wen Sheng was still optimistic about this.

"Maybe you think of them too well!" Milner didn't agree with Wensheng's words.
