spn only has one day to prepare. The day after Manchester United's training is over, the semi-finals of the Club World Cup will begin.
However, facing the Japanese team, Manchester United players do not need to prepare too much. In fact, the Club World Cup is still the same as the Toyota Cup. In the end, the European champions face the South American champion clubs.
Ferguson sent out a strike combination of Li Yu and Tevez, and two Manchester United veterans Giggs and Scholes, who are extremely popular in Japan, also got the opportunity to start.
The Japanese media all said that it was a good result for Gamba Osaka to score a goal against Manchester United. Facing the powerful Manchester United, they did not have to expect to win the game. Playing with such a mentality may make the whole game more enjoyable.
sex.
On the day of the match, the Tokyo National Stadium had only one color, and that was the red that belonged to Manchester United. The Japanese fans turned the stadium into Old Trafford, not saving face for their hometown team at all. They just came to appreciate how Manchester United defeated.
From Gamba, Osaka.[
It’s no wonder the fans have such a one-sided attitude. The disparity in strength between the two teams is really huge. It’s simply a game with no suspense. Moreover, it’s not Gamba Osaka that attracts fans to watch the game, but Manchester United!
As the on-site commentator called out the names of the Manchester United players, the fans at the scene gave a huge response. When it comes to creating an atmosphere, the Japanese fans are no weaker than the Manchester United fans at Old Trafford. They beat the drums and shouted the players' names.
On the contrary, it is more powerful.
"Teves Lee Yu!"
When the forward combination was introduced, the fans at the scene burst into loud noises. Tevez did not expect that he would be so popular. It seemed that the plastic surgery was not in vain. The Argentinian and Li Yu walked to the stadium together.
!
The fact may be a bit misunderstood. The commentator let slip and called out his name together, which resulted in such a result. It is hard to say how many of the voices were actually cheering for Tevez.
It was the turn of the Osaka team players to enter the field. The Japanese fans present were quite polite and welcomed the team from their hometown with applause.
When the players from the two teams shook hands, the Osaka players were obviously very respectful. They shook hands and nodded solemnly in greeting. Such respect from their opponents really made the Manchester United players a little uncomfortable. The opening is all about momentum, no matter how strong they are.
, you still have to have a good attitude when you come up, this kind of behavior is really rare, it's really like a friendly match!
Ferguson did not impose too many tactical constraints on Manchester United's starting players. Sir Alex Ferguson's original words were, "Let go, there are no restrictions in this game!"
At the beginning of the game, the Manchester United players looked a little contemptuous of their opponents, especially in the defense line. Manchester United's main central defender partnered up. Looking at the short and capable Japanese players, Vidic felt a bit like he had entered the country of dwarves. No wonder he is used to it in the Premier League.
There are so many experts in the scene, and it really doesn't arouse much interest when such opponents compete together.
But the Japanese players are not slow, and Vidic is not that kind of speed player. In the opening stage, Osaka Gamba Japanese star Yasuhito Endo grabbed the football in the midfield and made an accurate pass from behind.
Striker Hashimoto Eiro used his speed to get rid of Vidic's defense. The Manchester United center back lost because of his carelessness. He did not follow up at all beforehand. Otherwise, with the small body of a Japanese player, he would have been able to get rid of the Serbian hero.
Don't think about it, it's impossible to follow.
But now Hashimoto Hidero has got a chance to score a one-on-one goal. The surprised shouts of the fans in the audience are definitely not fake. Who would have thought before the game that the team that wanted the chance the most was Japan's Osaka Gamba team.
Van der Sar roared and immediately struck out when the situation was bad. It was too late. When Vidic's last-ditch effort failed, Hashimoto Hidero chose to shoot the goal.
Manchester United's old goalkeeper jumped back and didn't touch the ball in the air. The ball went in!
Manchester United trailed 0:1 by one goal in the first 3 minutes.
Only then did the fans at the scene react. The goal was scored beautifully. At this time, the huge drums sounded in the stands, and they didn’t know who they were celebrating. Such chaotic scenes are really rare. Wearing the red jersey that represents Manchester United,
Celebrating wildly for the opponent's goal.
Van der Sar stood up and said, "What are you thinking about? We are not here for sightseeing in the game. This is a game. Cheer up!" The Dutchman roared, and Li Yu could even hear it near the midfield.
Hearing that, although he didn't mention anything by name, everyone knew that he was talking about Vidic and Manchester United's entire defense.
What can Vidic say? He was indeed careless. The Dutch are still roaring now. If the giant Buddha outside the court gets angry in a while, just kidding, he will have to shed his skin even if he doesn't die!
"Liars, a bunch of hypocritical liars!" Vidic said in annoyance. It was all an illusion in the opening. It was rare that the opening was not a disguised attempt to confuse the opponent. If they could not make up for it, there would be no good results during the halftime break.
Eat and fight!
During the game, the most active Manchester United player became Nemanja Vidic in the defense. The Serbian was really energetic in the game. Other Manchester United players did not relax as before and began to take seriously this opponent whom they did not understand before.
.[
Manchester United started to get serious, but Gamba Osaka couldn't stand it at all. Although from the opening position, the Osaka team was in a 3-5-2 position, but in fact once Manchester United started the real offensive, it immediately became 5
-3-2.
I'm afraid of what will happen, with 5 defenders. After taking the lead, the Osaka team is also very single, playing a iron barrel formation, with only one foreign player Lucas on the front line.
This is effective when facing the powerful Manchester United's Iron Barrel Formation. The most faced by Manchester United in the Premier League is nothing else but the Iron Barrel Formation.
Although not experts, Manchester United players can be considered experts at breaking through iron barrels.
As soon as they discovered that Osaka Gamba took the initiative to give up the midfield and started to set up a steel barrel formation in the backcourt, Manchester United took it easy. Where was the background? Facing an Asian team, it could not shake the enthusiasm of the Manchester United players on the field.
Psychological advantages.
Li Yu is even more like this. If little Japan wants to become a spirit, then I will change you back and return to your original shape. This is necessary.
The Manchester United players had a tacit understanding against the Iron Bucket formation. The ball began to move back and forth in a wide range to mobilize the Osaka team's defensive players. The metronome was Scholes. It seemed that Manchester United was just kicking around in the midfield, but there was no substance at all.
There is a threat, but once the ball is released or the tempo is accelerated, it will be enough for the Osaka team to drink a few cups.
Li Yu moved to the wing, and Tevez supported him in the middle. The two always kept in touch. Suddenly, Scholes passed the ball to Tevez, who didn't even pause at all and immediately turned.
When he reached the wing where Li Yu was, the ball passed very comfortably, and Li Yu took advantage of the situation and went down.
Two Osaka players Kachi Ryo, Yamaguchi Satoshi quickly stepped forward to block the ball. When Li Yu broke through, Yamaguchi stretched out his kick and poked the ball out of the baseline. Manchester United won the first corner kick after the opening.
Giggs took the corner kick, and Vidic and Ferdinand, two of Manchester United's top players, both appeared in the Osaka penalty area. Vidic, in particular, ran back and forth with a serious look on his face, completely trying to make up for it. He insisted on scoring a goal.
No.
The Osaka team defended this corner kick and everyone returned to the penalty area. They couldn't be more nervous.
The referee blew the whistle, Giggs' corner kick was taken, and the landing point was directly at Vidic. Vidic jumped high and rushed to the top. With a loud "Boom!", the ball hit the goal frame hard.
The fans in the stands also exclaimed, and a melee broke out in the penalty area. Endo Yasuhito finally extended his kick into the crowd and kicked the ball out of the dangerous area.
Neville won the ball in the midfield and continued to attack. The game turned into a battle for Manchester United to break the defense. Who would have thought that the two teams with such a disparity in strength would fight so intensely.
The game was one-sided, but the score did not reflect the situation on the field. After 15 minutes of the first half, Manchester United was still one goal behind.
Li Yu decided to make more breakthroughs to deal with the Osaka team's intensive defense. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the two ultimate magic weapons of breaking the iron barrel, long shots and breakthroughs!
After getting the ball, Li Yu did not go to any lengths and really unleashed all his strength. With such an explosion, the gap in the abilities of the players became even more obvious. The Japanese players could only use the crowd tactics to deal with Li Yu's impact.
Li Yuren was dribbling the ball back and forth in the penalty area, and the Osaka team did not dare to foul. Everyone knows that he is joking. China Li Yu also has free kick skills. He can use a sea of people to block the shooting and passing angles!
Is it possible to prevent it if you want to?
Li Yu is not the only one in Manchester United, there is also an Argentinian on the front line. Li Yu did not follow the lead this time. He attracted the attention of three Osaka players at the front of the penalty area. He immediately passed the ball behind him and Tevez magically appeared.
There, however, the Argentinian did not shoot, but played a short pass penetration with Li Yu in the penalty area.
Heck, if we were leading, no one would say anything, but what time is it now? If there is a chance, don't rush to shoot, but Argentina's unique player dares to pass the ball back to Li Yu at this time, and Li Yuren will kill the ball at the same time.
Yeah, the passing and running are perfect, it's like a pre-show
Just like what he had practiced, he took advantage of the situation and fired fiercely. Osaka Gamba goalkeeper Fujitani Yosuke had already stretched his body to the limit after taking off. However, he is not Van der Sar's long arms and legs. He would be limited in taking off in a hurry if he stretched further.
The ball was not touched and the ball went in, 1:1!
The screams of mountains and tsunamis instantly sounded at the scene. This was Li Yu's iconic powerful strike. With the retirement of the God of War Batty, it has almost reached the point where only Li Yu's family can see such powerful attacks.
The perfect combination of strength and angle, the excited fans were still beating drums in celebration.
After scoring the goal, Li Yu was not too happy. It was just a draw, so he was not happy at all. After kissing his fingers, Li Yu picked up the football from the net and called on his teammates to run back quickly.
Manchester United really started to take it seriously. Influenced by Li Yu, other players also started to run back.[
All the Osaka players realized a problem, and Mamoru couldn't hold on any longer. The Manchester United they faced next were not just show-offs, but serious Manchester United main players. It would be a lie not to feel angry, but Li Yu
This simple move destroyed the fragile psychological defense of the Osaka Gamba players. This was a completely unexpected result for Li Yu, but in the following game, this was indeed the turning point of the entire game.
Five minutes later, Manchester United made a comeback. This time, Tevez showed everyone his unique ability to stick to the ball. The ball seemed to stick to his feet, and there was no difference when he touched it. The Japanese player, who is also short in stature,
Just couldn't take the ball away from the Argentinian's feet.
It's a very simple action, clearly telling you that even if they want to pass you, the Osaka Gamba players still can't hold on. The gap, the huge gap, seems so obvious now. After passing two people in a row, especially
Tevez had no intention of passing the ball this time. He wanted to go it alone. In front of the penalty area, before the opponent blocked it, Tevez kicked a shot with an obvious arc. This time Fujitani Yo
The media finally pounced on the ball and hit it past the baseline, a corner kick for Manchester United.
Manchester United's two masters appeared again in Gamba Osaka's penalty area without any suspense. This time, the player who took the penalty was unexpectedly replaced by Scholes. The ginger head usually ambush at the front of the penalty area and launch cold arrows.
Now it was him who took the corner kick, which greatly exceeded the expectations of the Osaka team's defensive players. The players did not have an accurate position in their minds about which area they should focus on defending. There was no way. There was no practice before the game, so they could only defend with all their strength.
Not to mention, Ginger Head’s corner kick skills are not bad at all. This time the target is still Vidic. Obviously the Manchester United players also have to give the Serbian a chance. Vidic will not give up the opportunity to score again this time.
Missed it from overhead, only to see the Serbian leaping high, with an obvious sign in the air
With the next move, he paid attention to the direction of the header this time. With such a close header, he could only rely on luck or a teammate standing near the goal post to clear the ball. This time the ball was headed towards the near post, but the point was wrong.
It is an absolute dead center, and coupled with the common height problem of Japanese players, scoring goals is very simple!
2:1, Manchester United finally overtook the score in the 35th minute of the first half. This goal also announced that the hard work of the Osaka Gamba players was all in vain.
Vidic finally released his frustration. After scoring the goal, the Serbian people roared loudly.
Li Yu jumped and immediately rode on Vidic's back, waving his arms vigorously in the air.
"Lee, what did you eat when you were growing up? Damn it, you're too heavy!" Vidic almost made Li Yu press down and spoke quickly.
"Okay!" Li Yu touched her hair embarrassedly, "I forgot about it in excitement!"
In the first half, the rest of the time became a performance of Manchester United's offense. Manchester United would not give their opponents any more chances. There were still 20 minutes left in the first half to completely sink the opponent, so let's make the sinking a little heavier!
Tevez performed once, and Li Yugai performed again. Li Yu tried to force a breakthrough with the ball in the middle for the first time. It was completely unreasonable. His speed, body, and Japanese player's body got close to him, but he was kicked off.
, in terms of strength, he is not a featherweight at all, and of course the referee will not call a foul. It is almost like a person walking into a wall, but no one will bump into it even if they know it is a wall.
Li Yu was like a heavy tank. The bicycles in front of him were all bicycles, and he just ran over them. This refreshing feeling made Li Yu really happy. He had known that this would happen, and he should have known how to kick like this just now.
The Japanese players are very unlucky. They have used all the methods available, except for falling to the ground and hugging their thighs. They are really bullied. If your health is not good, you can't do it like this!
Satoshi Nakazawa couldn't stand watching anymore. If Li Yu was allowed to score a goal like this, how could he have the nerve to continue playing football when he went back? Even though he knew Li Yu was scoring a goal, he still put the shovel in without hesitation, and he didn't
The solution is to rush over and still get crushed. Let's use a stumbling block and take a penalty kick. It's better than dying now.
The referee's whistle sounded immediately. Along with the whistle, there were huge boos from tens of thousands of fans at the scene. A classic goal was ruined. The fans were angry. They did not come to watch the Manchester United players take penalty kicks. They
What you want is a wonderful goal, so why do you do it seriously? If you don’t boo, who will you boo!
Li Yu stood at the penalty spot. Li Yu really didn't have many opportunities to take penalty kicks during the game. Ronaldo usually took the penalty kick. This time the Portuguese was not on the court. Giggs came up and asked him to take the penalty kick. This time
I have to vent all the depression I just felt.
Usually when taking free kicks, Li Yu sometimes doesn't need to run. This time when taking a penalty kick, he took several steps back.
Goalkeeper Fujitani Yosuke standing opposite, if the penalty kick can be dived, he also fell now. No need to ask, Li Yu wanted to hit hard, the kick missed, missed, even if the kick went in, don't kick it
On your body!
Fujitani Yosuke was still thinking about it, but the referee's whistle had already sounded. Li Yu did not hesitate and immediately accelerated his kick to shoot. Fujitani Yosuke still had a dull look on his face, but the ball had already gone in. He could kick a penalty kick.
With such an effect, Li Yu finally got rid of the depressed feeling just now.
3:1, Manchester United started to lead by 2 goals, with 15 minutes left in the first half!
"Lee, I haven't scored a goal yet!" Tevez came up to celebrate with Li Yu, but he said this.
It is true that the first goal was an assist from the Argentinian. Why should I change it back? "I'll pass the ball to you next!" Li Yu readily agreed. It was very simple to run over and pass the ball.
It was just as Li Yu thought. The tanks were attacking the Japanese bicycles again. Could it be a foul earlier? This time, a collective charge was coming. It was hard to believe that they couldn't defeat the tanks.
All the attention of the Osaka Gamba players was focused on Li Yu. It was a bit like a death squad. If two were not enough, three would be better.
Li Yu was secretly observing Tevez's movement, "Now!"
Suddenly the tank made a sharp turn and threw the gun horizontally to Tevez's hill gun. The hill gun took the gun, quickly set it up 15 meters forward in the open field, and fired immediately!
"Boom!" The power of Tevez's small mountain cannon is not small. The unlucky Fujitani Yosuke swallowed another one!
At the end of the first half, Manchester United temporarily led 4:1.
