Football: Starting from the Ronaldo Template

Chapter 226 The roaring Red Devil hurricane!
Deafening cheers erupted from Old Trafford again, and the LED screen on the side of the court flashed for a few seconds, then switched to a photo of Chu Feng with his hands folded across his chest.

Only 54 seconds had passed since the start of the game, and Manchester United took the lead in breaking through Lyon's goal.

At this time, Zhan Jun was still introducing the starting lineups of both sides. Listening to the noise coming from the headphones, he couldn't help but stop to explain.

After watching the replay of the goal, he said in surprise: "Ashley Young broke through from the wing and made an inverted triangle pass from the left side of the penalty area. Chu Feng followed up with a long-range shot that hit the dead center!"

"It turns out that this is why Mourinho asked Xiao Chu to start as a central midfielder."

Zhan Jun subconsciously began to think about it.

In fact, this was just Mourinho's helpless move. Pogba and Kovacic faced off in yesterday's training, and both of them suffered varying degrees of injuries.

Manchester United cannot find a more suitable substitute player for the time being.

詹俊夸赞了好一会穆里尼奥，继续介绍两队首发阵容，“曼联本场比赛排出的依旧是4-2-3-1，我们能看到非常有趣的画面，那就是曼联前场凑成了7、8、9、10的顺子。”

"As for Lyon, they have a 4-3-3 formation. Their average age is no more than 25 years old. They are more suitable to be called a youth army than Manchester United."

"Is Lukaku trying to save Lyon? He is less than ten meters away from the goal, but he is still far away from the goal frame?"

Of course, this does not mean that the player's position is locked. On the contrary, the player's tactical position will change with age, training and learning.

As for outside criticism that Manchester United's games are difficult to watch and his tactics are negative, he doesn't care.

If you want him to change his thinking and become an organizational midfielder, it is not as simple as "one plus one equals two".

If another goal is scored, the consequences will be disastrous.

You must know that before entering the Christmas schedule, Manchester United has four or five sick cases. Therefore, Manchester United must win at the minimum cost, including but not limited to today's game.

Otherwise, Lyon's quick counterattack is very likely to create a threat.

As time went by, Chu Feng found a way to take advantage of the situation while trying to adapt to his new role.

I have to say that it did achieve good results, but it didn't take long for Chu Feng to discover new problems.

When the game reached the 20th minute, Wan-Bissaka accurately scooped the football from Depay's feet, and then directly passed it to Matic in the midfield.

There is also an increasing desire to clarify the concept of the role of each tactical position, resulting in an increasing amount of content for each tactical position.

Chu Feng has only been in the Premier League for just over a year and has already transformed from a left winger to a center forward.

Chu Feng also discovered his own problem, because he used to play as a center and was used to looking for opportunities to break through after catching the ball.

The results of it?
Lukaku faced Marcelo who was coming fiercely from the side and wanted to push the goal with his right foot into the lower right corner of the goal, but his right foot ability was almost zero.

Lyon head coach Genesio quickly waved his hand to signal the Lyon players to compress their formation and stabilize the backcourt defense first.

"But I think Mourinho won't regret it. After all, he has a more efficient forward."

Seemingly frightened by Manchester United's terrifying goal scoring pace, Lyon's players were in an obviously sluggish state. The quick attack they were usually best at was in a mess, and even low-level passing errors frequently occurred.

These seven roles also have corresponding sub-roles.

Zhan Jun couldn't help but complain.

That is to use yourself as a fulcrum forward.

This has become Mourinho's tactical approach this season.

But it requires a lot of experience.

"This is really cruel!"

"It was Mourinho who sealed the deal."

In the field of big data analysis, there is such a "seven-bucket model" that divides football players into seven categories: center back, full back, midfielder, central midfielder, creator, dribbler and terminator.

In the 31st minute of the game, Ashley Young passed a long diagonal pass from his own backcourt. Chu Feng carried Diop's header with his back, creating an excellent single opportunity for Lukaku.

Mourinho couldn't help but frown, and then relaxed. He was too demanding on Chu Feng.

The situation gradually became calmer, and Mourinho no longer asked the whole team to attack Lyon as he did before.

"."

"what?"

Zhang Lu next to him laughed "hehe" twice: "Martinez, the head coach of the Belgian national team, said in the interview that Lukaku's right foot is not normal, because Maradona is not good at it either."

For example, forwards include "guerrilla forwards" (who move wide and cross), "progressive forwards" (who drop back and pass the ball), "target forwards" (who are strong in aerial confrontation and hold the ball in the frontcourt) and "stealing forwards" "Forward hunter" (maintaining a central position and looking for shooting opportunities).

The football came to Chu Feng's feet after several passes.

The camera returned to the green field and the game was resumed.

But it is not suitable for organizational midfielders because it will delay the offensive rhythm.

Fortunately, Herrera predicted Lyon's passing route correctly and moved ahead to intercept halfway.

Moreover, Manchester United fans have been hungry for so many years. It cannot be fed by one or two championships. Before that, there will not be too much pressure from public opinion.

"Notable among them is Depay, an outstanding striker from the Netherlands who played for Manchester United for 2015 months from 17-18."

"Manchester United sold Depay to Lyon at a low price of 1500 million euros. Less than two years later, Depay's worth quickly soared to 6000 million euros."

He subconsciously touched the ball continuously in search of space to break through. As a result, he delayed the best passing opportunity and was intercepted by Diop and Denail.

The rapid development of modern industrial level has affected modern football tactical thinking. People began to send players to specific positions based on their strengths.

The live broadcast room suddenly became cheerful.

Seeing the guilty look on Lukaku's face and the sweat on his forehead, Chu Feng swallowed his criticism and comforted him helplessly: "It's okay, I'll have a chance next time."

He knows that Lukaku will inevitably feel very anxious due to the sudden drop in playing time recently.

But sometimes the quicker you rush, the more likely you are to make mistakes.

Lukaku glanced at the coaching bench pretending to be casual and found that Mourinho was not too angry, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

The 37th minute of the game.

Lyon gradually entered the state and began to increase the intensity of the attack. The main point of attack was Chu Feng, who started passing from the center and backcourt.

After all, compared to Pogba and Kovacic, Chu Feng's defensive level is much inferior.

Herrera could only step forward to support Chu Feng.

But at the moment he moved forward, a gap appeared in Manchester United's complete diagonal fan defense. Denail took the opportunity to tear through both Manchester United's defense lines with a through ball.

This kind of pass seemed to be completed inadvertently, but it directly broke Manchester United's frontcourt blockade.

Therefore, when Ndombele received the pass, there was a piece of open space in front of him, facing Manchester United's last line of defense.

Lyon's synchronized forward movement left Maguire and David Luiz unable to do anything, and they could only find the nearest offensive player to mark. Ndombele saw this and passed to the left side of the small penalty area.

The ball passed over David Luiz's head and crashed close to the sprinting Depay.

The old Manchester United general used all his body strength and hit the football terminal hard with his left foot. He wanted to use goals to wash away the stain of being abandoned by Manchester United.

It’s also revenge!

De Gea started moving before Ndombele passed the ball. The moment Depay took a shooting stance, he simultaneously entered blocking mode!

Lift the knee on the side closest to the goalpost at a 90-degree angle, then quickly close the gap between the legs, keep your chest flat and swing your arms low. It looks like the letter "K" when viewed from behind!
This blocking technology used in futsal can expand the goalkeeper's coverage area to the extreme!

"Beautiful! De Gea!"

Maguire saw De Gea blocking the ball with his legs and excitedly rushed over to give De Gea a hug.

De Gea coughed twice and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"An excellent goalkeeper must not only go all out like other players on the field, but also relieve the whole team in difficult moments!"

This is a sentence once said by Black Spider Yashin, and De Gea regards it as his professional motto.

Manchester United players also expressed their admiration.

Although with the development of modern goalkeepers, Alisson and Ederson are more like perfect examples because they can take on greater responsibilities when in possession of the ball.

But goal-line technology is the foundation of a goalkeeper.

If you can't even make the most basic save, you can only become a ridiculous "shot on target".

Depay looked at the cheerful atmosphere of the Manchester United players and walked quickly to the corner kick area in silence.

Among all the clubs in the current five major leagues, basically no one can gain air superiority in front of Manchester United. After all, Maguire, David Luiz, Matic and others are all over 185cm tall.

Manchester Flying United’s nickname is not for nothing!
Maguire beat Lyon captain Fekir to grab a point and gave the ball to Herrera on the outside of the penalty area.

At the same time, all members of Manchester United launched a charge!
Along with the thundering sound of Old Trafford, there seemed to be a red mudslide on the green field!
"spread!"

"Everyone spread out!"

When Chu Feng ran wildly, he didn't forget to remind his teammates.

Lyon's youth troops also spared no effort in returning to defense.

The beauty of teamwork in football is perfectly interpreted at this moment. The two teams are competing to see who can get into position faster!

Lukaku gritted his teeth and rushed towards Lyon. Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure from the corner of his eye, and when he looked carefully, it turned out to be Chu Feng.

I saw that the distance between the two people was getting closer quickly!
Then Lukaku could only watch Chu Feng's back getting further and further away. You must know that he was once called the "Belgian Little Lightning". There shouldn't be that big a difference in speed between the two, right?

The ball was transferred by Herrera to the feet of Mahrez on the right side of the pitch.

Instead of breaking through from the wing or cutting inside, the polo king adjusted his posture and swung his left foot out!

Rashford looked at the flight path of the football and shouted at Chu Feng at the top of his lungs: "Chu, on your right front!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng's speed increased again.

Marcelo Antonio has similar technical characteristics to Maguire, with turning and speed being the biggest weaknesses.

When he was about to enter the penalty area, he didn't dare to foul and could only watch the ball and sigh.

Lyon goalkeeper Lopez decisively abandoned the goal. He is the main goalkeeper of the Portuguese national team. The most admired person among professional players is Cristiano Ronaldo.

So he had the idea of ​​revenge for his idol.

Chu Feng had a panoramic view of Lopez's activities, and he had an idea and chose to find another way.

Lift your right foot slightly and place it on the bottom of the football.

Snapped!
With a clear and sweet sound of touching the ball, a rainbow seemed to appear in Lyon's penalty area.

"Lob shot!"

“Very calm operation!”

"Oh, Lopez must be helpless at this moment. Maybe he will imagine that he is a giraffe and stick his head out to block the ball."

"But there's nothing we can do."

"Congratulations to Manchester United for continuing to expand their score advantage with their quick counterattack near the end of the first half!"

"Chu Feng scored the goal for Manchester United!"

"He is simply the most perfect striker in modern football. He fulfills all my fantasies about football, with his keen sense of smell, strong body and calm mentality."

Zhan Jun's excited voice came out.

Although it is just a simple goal, it reflects Chu Feng's unconstrained power and allows people to enjoy the beauty of football.

"Hurricane! (Hurricane!)"

"Hurricane!"

I don’t know who took the lead in shouting out a word. Manchester United fans all shouted together. In their eyes, Chu Feng is like a hurricane, capable of destroying all obstacles on the way forward!
Chu Feng's smile became even brighter after hearing this, and he ran to the Sir Alex Ferguson stand and kept waving his hands up and down.

Signal the fans to make their voices louder!
The Manchester United fans were also very considerate and roared in unison!
"Hurricane!!!"

The violent sound echoed in Old Trafford, rushing into the lonely night sky like a hurricane, seeming to tear the clouds in the sky apart!
The Manchester United players followed closely and praised him one after another.

"This goal is so beautiful!"

"Chu? Why do you think of hanging up?"

"Yes! Shouldn't you work hard to achieve a miracle?"

"Hahaha!"

Chu Feng laughed and replied: "This is the talent of a forward, you must not understand it!"

As soon as these words came out, the Manchester United players suddenly became dissatisfied and rubbed Chu Feng's hair.

Recently, there is an unverified rumor within the Manchester United team that touching Chu Feng's hair can bring good luck.

Chu Feng glanced at everyone in displeasure, and deliberately said with a serious face: "Look at the captain's armband on my arm? You must have the most basic respect for the captain, I am not an underage child!"

Rashford teased: "The 10 people on the field are older than you, and Ashley Young can be your uncle. The captain's airs are not easy to show off!"

Ashley Young's smile disappeared instantly, "Do you believe I can play for another 10 years? Maybe you will retire earlier than me!"

The United players started laughing again, but it was clear no one was taking it seriously.

The first half of the game ended quickly.

Back in the locker room, Genesio gave a speech that aroused everyone's emotions.

Who knew that after the second half started, Mourinho unexpectedly replaced Lukaku with McTominay, and the overall formation became 4-3-2-1. The main tactic was defensive counterattack!

Chu Feng also returned to a familiar position.

Genesio's arrangements all failed. Lyon is good at pressing in the frontcourt and quick counterattacks, which will have unexpected effects against teams that control the ball such as Manchester City or Barcelona.

But it didn't do much for Manchester United.

The 71th minute of the game.

Manchester United's defensive counterattack was effective. The football was quickly moved to the left wing, and Rashford passed it diagonally to Chu Feng in the penalty area.

Chu Feng acted as a bridgehead and carried the defensive player with his back. Mahrez shot a beautiful arc from his left foot and broke through Lyon's goal again!
In the end, Manchester United won the game 3-0, and there was no more upset in the Champions League!
