Many people find it strange that among the four major leagues, why is the Premier League the most global?
The English advantage is on the one hand, the influx of foreign capital is on the other, and the game style is beautiful on the other.
But in fact, a very important point is that the Premier League really pays special attention to it and even works hard to manage overseas markets.
As the two best leagues in European football today, La Liga also attaches great importance to it. However, when La Liga arranges their signature event, Derby of the Century, they basically cater to local fans, so it is arranged on a local night.
As a result, when it comes to Asia, it's basically three or four o'clock in the morning. Who has that time?
But the Premier League is different.
Closed for Christmas?
It's okay, I'll arrange it. Not only will the games continue as usual, but I also know that you are suspended, so I specially arranged a few more games for everyone to enjoy and enjoy.
How to watch major events?
No problem, I arranged everything at noon, which is the best time possible for the whole world to be synchronized.
As for our teams and players being affected, we will resolve this ourselves.
Fans are God!
Therefore, the Manchester Derby, the most watched game in the Premier League this season, was scheduled for noon.
…
Before the game, there was something wrong with Manchester City.
Robben is injured, Rakitic is suspended, and Lichtsteiner on the defense is also injured.
Many people are worried whether Manchester City will be affected by this?
Moreover, three days after playing Manchester United, Manchester City will go to Ligue 1 Lyon.
Before the game, many media believed that Gao Shen was likely to change his tactics in this game, and since it was an away game, he might play more conservatively.
After all, Manchester United is in pretty good shape right now.
But Gao Shen decisively changed his position.
Goalkeeper: Neuer.
Defence: Leighton Baines, David Luiz, Kompany and Zabaleta.
Midfield: Fernandinho and Yaya Toure at the back, with Sturridge, Hazard and Robinho in front.
Forward: Robin van Persie.
Before the crucial derby match, he changed from 433 to 4231, showing his profound tactical courage.
Even Sky TV commentator Andy Gray, who is responsible for the commentary, said that the advanced tactics are really changeable and elusive.
"In the past two seasons at Manchester City, he has really tried many different tactics, from the 4-4-2 diamond position, to the commonly used 4-3-3, to 4-2-3-1. He also played 4-4-2 before.
Positioning as a double midfielder, occasionally playing four-two-four..."
"I have to say that we have seen that Gao Shen has reserved quite a lot of ammunition for Manchester City's tactical arsenal. He is able to arrange different tactical plays based on different opponents and different player lineups."
"Tonight, he once again adopted a 4-2-3-1 formation. We can see that Manchester United still uses the 4-3-3 formation that it is best at, but Ferguson lined up Fletcher, Sneijder and Anderson in the midfield.
The combination, with Carrick on the bench."
"This is also a kind of rotation. Ferguson also has to prepare for the Champions League knockout rounds."
"Both of them are world-class coaches, and both have excellent tactical skills. Now let's see how the two teams will play after the start."
…
Gao Shen did not attack in the opening game, but Manchester United played more actively.
It is said to be four, two, three and one, but in fact, Sturridge and Robinho on both wings dropped back relatively deep, but Hazard and Van Persie pushed forward further. At first glance, it seems to be a bit four.
The taste of 411.
This is mainly due to the impact and threat of Manchester United's wings, Nani and Valencia on the wing.
At Old Trafford, this concern still exists.
As the game started, Manchester United took the initiative and acted a bit aggressively, while Manchester City played more steadily.
Both Sturridge and Robinho actively retreated to protect the full-backs, which played a certain role in curbing Manchester United's wing attack. However, within three minutes of the opening, they were given two corner kicks.
This also proves once again that Gao Shen's strategy of holding on at the beginning is correct.
If you really want to fight with Manchester United, you may not be able to get any benefits.
But just after Manchester United's two corner kicks, Manchester City seized the opportunity and launched an attack from the right.
In the back and forth in the midfield, he caught the opportunity. David Luiz sent a long diagonal pass and passed the ball directly to the space behind Evra. Robinho quickly moved forward, but was
Vidic returned to defense and blocked the ball out of bounds.
Manchester City received a throw-in from the right side of the penalty area.
Before Manchester United's defense could react, Robinho quickly took the throw-in and threw the ball to Hazard who ran over to receive it.
The Belgian didn't stop the ball and passed it directly back to Zabaleta.
Zabaleta was pressed by Nani and passed the ball to Yaya Toure.
Yaya Toure passed the ball to Hazard, who took a touch and passed the ball to Robinho.
But at this time, the right side of Manchester United's entire penalty area was already filled with defensive players, and Evra and others were already in position.
Robinho took the ball and was double-teamed by Evra and Anderson. He tried to rush into the penalty area and passed the ball to Hazard.
Hazard stopped the ball and turned towards the baseline, scaring Vidic, Anderson and Evra into double-teaming him.
But Hazard, a talented man, was brave and just dribbled the ball and sent a diagonal pass. From the gap between Vidic and Anderson, he passed the ball to the feet of Van Persie in the penalty area.
At this time, Robinho, who was just outside the penalty area, had already rushed into the penalty area from behind the three defenders on the left side of Manchester United.
Brazilian players have always been very good at running without the ball and have a very keen sense of smell.
Ferdinand stood between Van Persie and the goal, and Sneijder also returned to defend the penalty area in time. When Van Persie received the ball, he ran to the right side of the Dutchman, trying to cut off his contact with his teammates outside.
Unexpectedly, Van Persie faced Hazard's pass and sent the ball directly with his left foot to the outside of the right corner of the small penalty area.
Robinho rushed into the penalty area and caught up with Van Persie's pass. Facing goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar, he stopped the ball with his right foot and made a fake move with his left foot to push the ball into the far corner.
He dunked toward the baseline, then volleyed with his right foot into the near corner.
The unlucky Van der Sar was stunned by Robinho's flexible and skillful movements. When he realized the danger and fell to the ground to save, the ball had already entered the goal.
One to zero!
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"Just over three minutes into the game, Manchester City took the lead and scored!"
“What a wonderful team effort!”
"Manchester United's defense is already quite well-organized, but Manchester City just relied on the players' personal abilities and technical skills, as well as their skillful passing and receiving coordination, to penetrate Manchester United's iron wall in a small area on the right wing."
"This is a contest between spear and shield!"
"Manchester City played a very delicate teamwork, which is really outstanding!"
The live broadcast camera repeated the entire process of cooperation and scoring again and again, but in the stadium, Gao Shen was so excited that he jumped up, pumped his fists and cheered.
…
After conceding a goal first, Manchester United's blood was completely aroused.
Amid the cheers and encouragement of the fans, the Red Devils launched a fierce attack on Manchester City. Nani on the left and Valencia on the right were extremely active.
From Manchester City's goal to the tenth minute, Manchester United created four corner kicks. It is self-evident how powerful the attack launched, but the corner kicks failed to create a threat.
This also has something to do with the lack of enough corner kick attackers in the Manchester United team.
And the continuous attacks led to the emptiness of the defense.
In the 12th minute, during a Manchester United attack, after Nani's long-range shot went directly high, Neuer quickly took a goal kick.
But Vidic pushed him back into the midfield, and the two sides started a fight.
After receiving the pass from Fernandinho, Gareth Bale tried to dribble the ball along the left rib, but was tripped to the ground by Fletcher just after he passed the center line. The referee did not blow the whistle.
After Bell struggled to get up, he caught up again, got the ball before O'Shea, and passed it to Hazard.
Hazard was accelerating forward, and happened to catch up with Gareth Bale's pass in the gap. He faced Ferdinand directly. He first made a fake move, deceived Ferdinand, and then suddenly spiked the ball to the right. Ferdinand reacted.
Before, I got a small gap and quickly sent a direct pass with my right foot.
The football followed a straight line, from Manchester City's left rib to the left side of Manchester United's penalty area.
At the top of the arc, Van Persie first used a smoke bomb to retreat and confuse Vidic. After seeing Hazard's movements, he suddenly stopped, turned around and rushed towards the left side of the penalty area.
Vidic reacted quickly enough and immediately stopped and turned to follow, trying to entangle Van Persie, but he was still slightly behind.
When masters compete with each other, this is often the only difference.
After Van Persie caught up with Hazard's pass in the penalty area, he didn't even try to stop the ball. He directly shot with his legs and hit a powerful shot towards the right side of the goal.
Van der Sar positioned himself to the left, trying to block the near corner, leaving the far corner for Vidic, who was catching up.
Theoretically, if Van Persie stops the ball, the defense will be successful.
But Van Persie didn't need to stop the ball at all, he just hit it with his left foot, and the ball was pushed into the right side of Manchester United's goal.
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"Two to zero!"
“Manchester City!!!”
"Twelve minutes, another goal from Manchester City!"
"Oh my God, is there going to be another massacre tonight?"
"I believe that all fans have not forgotten the massacre at Old Trafford last season."
"Could it be that Manchester City will do it again tonight?"
Van Persie was so excited that he rushed out of the stadium, ran all the way, and finally fell to his knees under the stands.
This season, after joining Manchester City, he played in the best form of his career and also had the most beautiful statistics.
More importantly, Manchester City's coaches and team doctors are both professional, and he has not missed time due to injury so far.
And as long as he is not injured and allows him to continue fighting for a long time, his condition will get better and better!
Thinking of this, after celebrating his goal with his teammates, Van Persie turned around and walked back. He ran to the visiting team's coaching bench to high-five and hug the coach.
He was very grateful to Gao Shen!
Because without Gao Shen's persuasion, he would not have come to Manchester City; without Gao Shen's trust in him, he would not have performed such a wonderful performance.
If he were asked to choose the head coach he respects the most, the first one would definitely be Wenger, there is no doubt about it.
Further down, it’s profound!
