When spn players from the two teams were waiting in the tunnel to enter the field, Li Yu and Ronaldo met for the first time. After the two met, they did not speak. Ronaldo looked at Li Yu arrogantly.
Of course, Li Yu didn't have a good face towards people who didn't care about him, and looked askance at Ronaldo.
Both of them were probably thinking about the same question, "Use goals to trample the opponent under your feet!"
Before the game, the head coaches of both teams were thinking about how to contain the two men, but they loudly started a fight in the tunnel.
Ferguson used Li Yu's previous game data to formulate a defensive strategy for him. However, Sir Alex found that it is difficult to characterize a comprehensive player like Li Yu. Generally speaking, players are divided into two types. One type of player can perform under specific tactics.
Once this kind of player is assigned to a tactical system that is not suitable for him, his level will be greatly reduced and he will have great tactical limitations. This is why a new coach will often change the main players left behind by his predecessor on a large scale.
If you are not adaptable to the new tactics, you must replace players that suit your tactics.[
The other type is that you can perform to your due level regardless of any tactical play. Many players fall into this type of player, but if you can adapt to any tactical play, you can also use your own
A player who has played many wonderful games individually is a player that every opponent has a headache for. He is also a player that every head coach dreams of. He is a star.
Li Yu and Ronaldo do not belong to either category, they are exceptions.
Sometimes they make moves that disrupt their team's tactical combination, but more often they use their talents and skills to threaten the opponent!
If you play well, you will definitely be a contributor to the team's victory, and you will show off your sharpness!
Failure is the target of the whole team's attack. The media and teammates have all criticized Ronaldo before, accusing him of wasting opportunities in the game and not choosing to pass the ball.
The same comprehensiveness, speed, body, and foot skills!
Li Yu is still immature, but his talent is not inferior to Ronaldo at all, and is even better than Ronaldo. To defend such a player, he has to make a detailed plan.
Ferguson's tactic was to intercept at all levels. Li Yu was in the midfield, the midfielder was responsible for intercepting, moved to the backcourt, and the defender came up to block.
The speed is limited to the maximum. Fortunately, Li Yu doesn't like to be active on the wing. In Ferguson's view, this arrangement is a relatively good method.
Ferguson specially formulated a defensive strategy for Li Yu. Of course, Moyes would not let go of the more famous Ronaldo. He planned to give up one side of the offense to specifically limit Ronaldo's performance. Everton's entire left wing was blocked in this game.
There is only one goal to limit Ronaldo to the greatest extent. The right wing also received the same arrangement. Ronaldo will implement this tactic on both sides.
Players from the two teams finally walked into the stadium holding hands with young fans amid the cheers of the fans.
Manchester United players, No. 1 goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar; No. 6 left back Brown, No. 5 central defender Ferdinand, No. 15 central defender Vidic, No. 27 right back Silvester; No. 3 left midfielder Evra, No. 7
Right midfielder Ronaldo, No. 18 midfielder Scholes, No. 16 midfielder Carrick; No. 11 left winger Giggs, No. 32 forward Tevez.
An unexpected start for Manchester United, Giggs appeared at the front, and Evra switched to left midfielder.
Everton players: No. 33 goalkeeper Wessels; No. 3 left back Baines, No. 2 right back Hibbert, No. 5 central defender Lescott, No. 4 central defender Yabo; No. 18 midfielder Phil
·Neville, No. 6 left midfielder Arteta, No. 16 midfielder Jagielka, No. 21 right midfielder Osman; No. 8 forward Andy Johnson, No. 22 Li Yu.
Everton's lineup was surprisingly consistent with the lineup predicted by everyone before the game. It was exactly the lineup predicted by the media.
Barber, the referee of the focus battle, blew the whistle and the game started.
Amid the cheers of the Everton fans at home, Manchester United took the lead to kick off. Giggs knocked the football lightly and the ball landed at Tevez's feet.
In today's game, Sir Alex Ferguson's unexpected strike combination appeared for the first time. It is estimated that in the following games, people will discover the ingenuity of this arrangement, but they can't see it at all now.[
"The game has finally begun." The moment the whistle almost sounded, Li Yu, like a leopard out of the cage, kicked off his left foot and rushed towards Tevez who had got the ball.
Tevez looked at Li Yu running towards him aggressively, decisively split the ball and handed it to Ronaldo's feet. If he had known that Li Yu's frontal steal would be in vain, Tevez would never have made such a choice.
.
Ronaldo looked very excited when he got the ball. Faced with Phil Neville who was defending him, he showed off his gorgeous footwork as soon as he got up, pedaling his bicycle continuously in preparation for a breakthrough.
He moved, but Phil Neville was suddenly accelerated by Ronaldo and successfully broke through. Manchester United's announced lineup was basically a cover. The real strikers in this game were actually Ronaldo and Tevez, while Giggs was more
Standing behind the two of them, Ronaldo did not break through to the wing at all, but went directly to Everton's center. It was an offensive method that surprised everyone.
Before the Everton players could react, they were still retreating. Ronaldo took a long shot nearly 40 meters away from the goal.
Oh my God, I chose to attack the goal right here. How much confidence is needed!
The ball went over the goalpost, and as expected, it was ridiculed by the Everton fans in the audience. However, Ronaldo muttered something with a regretful face, completely ignoring the discordant noises from the fans. Obviously, he thought
This shot may pose a threat.
It was the first time that Li Yu saw such a confident player on the court. He was also very focused and focused completely on the court. Li Yu could clearly see that the goalkeeper of the team, Wessels, who was originally a substitute, was standing at that time.
The position is definitely a bit forward. If the ball can be suppressed, then the ball is definitely a threat.
With the opening kick, Li Yu discovered many gaps between himself and Ronaldo. His timing of breakthroughs and shots was definitely better than his own.
In the flash of lightning, Li Yu's desire to compete with his offensive skills was lessened, and instead he was more eager to challenge powerful enemies!
When playing against Milan, I felt that feeling for the first time. This time the feeling of challenging a strong enemy came back. Li Yu, who had restrained himself before, was finally released!
Juventus was a failure in one season. After Li Yu came to Everton, he deliberately chose to restrain himself. Although this brought a lot of goals, the enthusiasm for playing football in the first year was gradually decreasing.
Thinking about becoming stronger, he forced himself to become stronger with a lot of anger and resentment, but he was not happy, but this game allowed him to find the happy impulse of playing football again, and everything was the figure of the red No. 7.
Like a child who never knows how to be satisfied, he is focused and happy on the court!
The confidence and happiness on the court finally came back shortly before and after. I have never felt so good standing on the court.
If Manchester United's head coach Ferguson knew that Ronaldo's kick made Li Yu successful, he might not have sent Manchester United's No. 7 in this game!
Li Yu, who plays football confidently and happily, will soon let the world know that the word "football king", which has been forgotten for a long time, has returned to the modern football field.
Everton's attack.
In the midfield, Arteta successfully got rid of Scholes' entanglement, swayed away from the angle, and handed the ball to Li Yu's feet.
Li Yugang received the ball, and Manchester United's Carrick rushed over fiercely.
Carrick, who wanted to take down Li Yu at once, made a decisive move, but the hot-headed midfielder forgot Sir Alex Ferguson's plan before the game and intercepted instead of fiercely stealing.
The ball passed through Carrick's outstretched feet. Li Yu dodged and chased the ball away, and the blue ocean suddenly boiled.[
Just when all the fans thought Li Yu was going to perform a breakthrough with the ball, he chose to distribute the ball and passed the ball to his partner Johnson, while he quickly moved forward and waited for the opportunity.
This game is full of unexpected things, Manchester United's strange formation, Ronaldo's shot just past midfield, and Li Yu, who now likes to break through alone, passes the ball!
The football passed through the gap between Silvestre and Vidic!
It was Spaniard Arteta. After receiving the ball, he took a small step forward and immediately chose to shoot.
Van der Sar saved the ball from the bottom line and Everton won the first corner kick.
Li Yu, whose position at corner kicks has always been unpredictable, once again stood outside the penalty area this time, with no intention of grabbing the ball. However, Ferdinand still followed him out of the penalty area and stood in front of him.
From this defensive position, we can see how much Manchester United attaches importance to Li Yu's defense.
Ferdinand curled his lips and sneered, and then broke out to attack the goal again. He stood a little far away to confuse who? Little trick! I will follow you in all free kicks today!
Arteta's corner kick was taken, but Ferdinand stood there stupidly. Li Yu did not run to fight for the point, but ran to the wing on the side of Arteta's corner kick.
How can I follow this? I’m stupid! I don’t know what to do at all!
What is incredible is that the ball happened to be pushed to Li Yu in the penalty area. Did he know in advance where the ball would go?
No one can explain this weird movement, but the ball did reach Li Yu's feet and hit the goal with great force!
Without any hesitation, he chose to shoot from a high angle. The ball he drew out with great force was blocked by Carrick and flew out of the baseline. It was another Everton corner kick!
Ferdinand saw Li Yu standing next to him again, swallowed his saliva, and then he closed his mouth. How did that scene happen just now?
