Stop the ball ten meters away, the goal depends on Meng

Chapter 451 Pele, the challenge of the world champion!

September 9, 12:5 pm local time in England.

It’s 0:30 late at night in East Eighth District.

Old Trafford Stadium ushered in the focus of the fifth round of the Premier League - the double red club.

Since Manchester United and Liverpool are both located in the northwest of England, the matchup between them is also known as the "Northwest Derby".

As the two giants with the longest history, the deepest foundation and the richest honors in the UK, the grievances and grudges between the two sides can be traced back to a hundred years ago. Every time the showdown is fierce and fierce, many domestic fans directly regard the double red as the two giants. It will be regarded as "England National Derby".

Although it was drizzling in Manchester on this day, the surrounding stands were still full of guests, including legendary players from both sides such as Bobby Charlton, Dalglish, Ian Rush, Robbie Fowler, Cantona, Beckham, Owen, and celebrities from all walks of life throughout the British Empire, all gathered together, it was like a grand event for the whole society.

Even Brazilian football king Pele traveled thousands of miles to come to the Theater of Dreams and chatted and laughed with Charlton and Ferguson before the game.

The football king praised: "Manchester United is the best team in England, and Sir Alex Ferguson is the greatest coach in the history of football, just like I am the best player in the history of football!"

A reporter immediately smelled the news and quickly handed over the microphone:

"You mean, you are still stronger than Suawei?"

Bailey nodded slightly reservedly:

"I know that Awei is in the spotlight now, but you shouldn't forget history."

"I have led Brazil to three World Cup titles and scored 1283 wonderful goals in my career. Which of these two achievements can he beat?"

The reporter couldn't help but be speechless.

These two achievements are beyond the reach of any top player.

Regardless of the strength of the Chinese team, how to complete three consecutive World Cups. Such team achievements and cup competitions have too many variables, and the slightest accident will fall short.

Just talking about personal records, Pele’s 1283 goals is also a terrifying record that is difficult to reach!

After all, Pele emerged in the first team at the age of 16 and did not officially hang up his boots until he was 37. His career lasted 21 years and he played an astonishing 1366 games!

According to Su Changwei's playing efficiency during his time in AC Milan, even if he includes national team games, he can play 40 to 45 games a year. Even if he averages 3 goals per game, he only has 150 goals a year. If he wants to catch up. The record of the old football king needs to be maintained at its peak for 8 to 9 years!

According to the common understanding of people on earth, Su Changwei is already 21 years old, and it has been 4 and a half years since his debut in a professional game. With his glass physique, how could he maintain his peak condition until he was 30 years old? !

What's more... now he has moved to the Premier League, which has the most intense physical confrontation, the fastest offensive and defensive rhythm, and the loosest referee standards!

In this arena, how many people suffer accidental serious injuries every year!

How could Su Changwei avoid major injuries from the age of 21 to 30? -

The atmosphere before the game was already extremely heated, but when the starting lineups of both sides walked out of the tunnel, many fans couldn't help but curse:

"Fake Oil!"

It's no wonder these vulgar fans are shouting curses.

They paid for the most expensive tickets, but the biggest actors didn't appear!

Especially for Manchester United, which is playing at home, the three superstars on the front line-Su Changwei, Rooney, and Robin van Persie are all absent!

Ferguson still didn't dare to directly put out the three-center-back system he just studied. Today he put out his usual 4231:

Goalkeeper: De Gea.

Back four: Rafael, Smalling, Blind, Luke Shaw

Double defensive midfielder: Herrera, Carrick

Three forwards: Valencia, Mata, Januzaj

Single striker: Fellaini

Sir Alex Ferguson's lineup is indeed a bit unexpected, especially the selection of forwards, which surprised everyone.

However, he was also a helpless choice. Rooney and Robin van Persie were both injured. Su Changwei and Hernandez had flown around the earth for a long time. They were not in good physical condition after traveling long distances. Uncle Mata's small body was difficult to play as a lone forward. Among the characters, only the tall and majestic Fellaini can be at the forefront...

Opposite Liverpool, Rogers put up a 433 lineup:

The goalkeeper is Belgium second goalkeeper Mignolet.

The four defenders are: physical fitness monster Klein, "Prison Break Brother" Skrtel, military iron guard Lovren, and 18-year-old youth training youngster Gomez.

The three midfielders include: "Brother" Emre Can, who joined Milner and Brazilian midfielder Lucas Leiva for free.

The front three are all signed in the summer window: "Brazilian Wan Zhaolun" Firmino, "King Kong Tai Sui" Benteke, and British Championship Golden Boot Danny Ince.

Liverpool's lineup is also incomplete in this game. Old captain Gerrard has left the team, new captain Henderson and striker Sturridge have suffered injuries, and new core Coutinho has been red carded and suspended. The overall strength has dropped by at least one level.

On the visiting team's bench, there are also second goalkeeper Bogdan, Kolo Toure, Sakho, Moreno, Origi, Ibi, and Rohit.

The home team's reserves include Argentina goalkeeper Romero, Van Dijk, Phil Jones, Valencia, Rojo, Ashley Young, and Su Changwei. Although both sides have a lot of injuries, the depth of the lineup is not at the same level!

Referee Michael Oliver cautiously blew the whistle to start the game, and Manchester United, which had the advantage of being at home, took the lead in attacking.

In the 7th minute, Mignolet made a mistake in throwing the ball. The ball hit Mata and deflected to Fellaini's feet. The Belgian lobbed an empty goal from the front of the penalty area and flew into the stands...

"Fake!"

An annoyed Fellaini shook his afro.

The live footage not only showed Ferguson on the sidelines and Su Changwei on the bench, but also showed Rooney and Robin van Persie in the stands...

As long as one of these three big guys is present, Liverpool's gate has been missed!

At more than 20 minutes, Milner made a mistake in passing the ball from the backcourt. Luke Shaw made a pass from the left. Herrera, who was in the front point, jumped up to fight for the top. He was a few centimeters shorter. Fellaini, who was outflanking him in the back point, kicked him. The ball stopped beyond the baseline...

"..."

Su Changwei, who was sitting on the bench, couldn't help but rub his chin.

[Why does this scene just now look so familiar? 】

[Am I still playing for the national team? 】

That is to say, thanks to Manchester United's forward being Fellaini who came on as a temporary guest, although they took the initiative, they did not create a real threat.

The score of 0:0 remained until the halftime break.

Ferguson directly removed Januzaj, who was in a sluggish performance, and sent out left wing Ashley Young!

The effect of this substitution adjustment was immediate. Yang Zuozhi broke through with the ball for the first time and caused huge damage on the left side of the penalty area. Not only did Liverpool's Lucas receive a yellow card, but he also won a position for the team. Nice free kick!

Mata, who was responsible for serving, did not shoot directly. Instead, he used tactical coordination and knocked the ball horizontally to Blind in the middle.

No one would specifically defend such a defender. Blind volleyed directly from the top of the penalty area without adjusting, and the ball jumped from between the defenders into the net!

1: 0!

Liverpool, who fell behind by one goal, were certainly unwilling to fail. They then launched a counterattack and were very close to scoring at one point.

Skrtel's header from close range in the corner kick melee was blocked by Blind in front of the goal line. Firmino then made a follow-up shot, but was blocked by Blind again...

As a direct descendant of Van Gaal, Blind was not originally welcomed by the fans, but his professionalism still received unanimous applause from the fans.

Liverpool, which had been unsuccessful for a long time, made a mistake in the 69th minute and was quickly counterattacked by Manchester United.

Carrick sent a direct pass. Herrera, who caught up with the ball, broke into the penalty area and was tackled by Gomez who was chasing back!

The referee Oliver hesitated for a moment and blew the whistle:

"Drip~~~"

Foul for shoveling in the penalty area, yellow card, penalty kick!

As Herrera scored overnight, the score expanded to 2:0!

Su Changwei, who was sitting on the bench, yawned:

"Double Red Club, that's it?"

"Old man, do I still need to appear?"

Ferguson folded his hands on his chest and smiled calmly:

"My script was that the game was at a stalemate, and I sent you out at the last moment. Then you scored three goals in a row in 15 minutes like a god descending from the earth, and single-handedly reversed the score!"

"But... I didn't expect Liverpool to be so good!"
