Football: Starting from the Ronaldo Template

Chapter 258 Dream Theater has no limit, three goals to go ahead!

Fifteen minutes passed quickly, and no one knew what Sarri said, but when the Chelsea players came out, everyone had a gloomy look on their faces.

Sometimes giving chicken blood also needs to be combined with the actual situation. It is difficult to achieve good results just by relying on verbal stimulation.

Sarri really needs to learn from Guardiola, Mourinho, Klopp and others in this regard.

And someone needs to stand up and set an example. Originally, Chelsea had Terry and Drogba, but who else can be called "iron-blooded" now?
Beep! ! !
The referee blew the whistle to start the second half. Hazard kicked the ball back to Jorginho, who then passed it across to Kovacic.

Kovacic wanted to move forward with the ball, but found that no teammate was nearby to follow up.

How the hell do you still play?
With 45 minutes left before the end of the game, Chelsea players have already lost their fighting spirit. They may not even be able to draw the game with a penalty kick against Manchester United.

Kovacic suddenly regrets coming to Chelsea.

There is an old saying that goes like this: "If you are close to vermillion, you will be red; if you are close to ink, you will be black."

In an environment where everyone is messing up, it's hard to stick to your original intention.

"Oops, I wanted to look for Jorginho again, but Kante went straight forward and intercepted halfway!"

Carragher observed Mikel's expression and roughly guessed what he was thinking, feeling somewhat sympathetic.

"Keep an eye on Manchester United No. 7!" Rudiger, who was nearest, left a sentence and rushed towards his former teammate fiercely.

Kanter's little eyes were filled with surprise as he looked at Chu Feng's agile movement.

After Kanter completed the interception, he did not pass the ball easily, but went straight to the penalty area.

Limited by the natural weakness of the 4312 formation in terms of defensive width, Manchester United did not put all its efforts into high-position pressing, but limited the opponent's passing routes through the movement of frontcourt players.

"If you look carefully, Manchester United's three midfielders are positioned much further forward than before."

From God's perspective.

"Let's see if Manchester United can seize the opportunity!"

Neville even pretended to shake his head, which made Mikel next to him feel disgusted. He thought to himself that it was no wonder Neville was not liked by others.

Dribbling the ball attracts some of Chelsea's defensive forces and creates a more comfortable offensive environment for teammates.

This guy turns out to be a famous monster in FIFA, but he seems to be very bad when it comes to actually playing the game.

"I come!"

If I had known better, I shouldn't have come to Chelsea in the first place.

Neville thought for a moment and suddenly realized: "A pressing trap in the middle!"

Kanter is as close as a gangrene.

Since Chelsea is in a bad state, they have to take advantage of the situation and try to end the game within regular time.

After all, the penalty shootout not only tests strength, but also has a lot of luck involved.

Carragher next to him also echoed: "Mourinho's classic tactics!"

It wasn't until the two became enemies and faced each other head-on that Jorginho realized how difficult Kanter was to deal with.

However, the voice behind him made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

The football quickly rolled to Barkley on the left.

Herrera keeps talking, and he doesn't stretch his legs even after he gets close to you. He just keeps putting psychological pressure on you.

There was a lot of excitement in the commentary box, and it was no less impressive on the pitch.

Don't take penalty kicks unless absolutely necessary. This was Mourinho's primary goal for the Manchester United players during the halftime break.

Chu Feng, Pogba and Mahrez stood in parallel positions to form an interception line.

His idea is simple.

Chelsea fans gave him the nickname: "The Attack Terminator!"

Chu Feng signaled Pogba to stand in the middle and took the initiative to rush towards Azpilicueta.

In terms of explosive speed within 10 meters, who in the entire Premier League can match Chu Feng?

And his running route is very sophisticated, intentionally or unintentionally exposing the space in the middle, seeming to induce the opponent to pass the ball.

He couldn't turn around and pick the ball out, so he could only pass the ball with Kanter's left foot.

"Barkley's pass was too random!"

Azpilicueta couldn't think of the answer. Anyway, he definitely couldn't do it himself, even if he was a few years younger, he couldn't do it.

"There's someone behind you!"

Azpilicueta threw his arms and ran wildly behind, but instead of getting closer, the distance became farther and farther.

Like a sharp dagger, Chu Feng penetrated diagonally from the wing to the left side of the penalty area, which was the space left by Rudiger.

Barkley did not live up to the expectations of the Egyptian political commissar, and he made a passing error in his hurry.

"Move up the formation, defend in the middle and high positions, and get the ball back as soon as possible!" Chu Feng waved his hand and took the lead in charging forward.

Kovacic complained internally and passed the ball back to Azpilicueta.

As soon as the two of them finished speaking, Azpilicueta passed the ball over, and Jorginho received a reminder from his teammates before he could catch the ball.

You can't pull your hips.

He moved his right foot upward hard, and a rainbow seemed to appear in the sky above Old Trafford.

Rudiger quickly stopped and jumped up on the spot.

But the football just passed by his head and seemed to have touched his scalp.

Rudiger regretted very much at this moment why he had a crew cut.

Chu Feng turned around and observed the movement of the football. From the corner of his eye, he also noticed Christensen on the right, who was rushing towards him with all his strength.

Stopping the ball first and then shooting will definitely not work.

In the fierce Premier League, the pace is unimaginable.

How can I give you so much time to adjust?
Whoever can make the highest quality processing in the shortest time can become a superstar player.

"Opportunities are fleeting!"

Chu Feng's body was tilted to an exaggerated angle, and his right leg was almost parallel to the ground.

The purpose of this is to suppress the shot and prevent it from being jerked off due to excessive exertion.

boom! The instep of his right foot made full contact with the football, making a dull sound.

After watching the game between Manchester United and Arsenal some time ago, Kepa knew that Chu Feng had a trick of aiming far and hitting close, so he deliberately moved closer to the left goal post when he stood.

But who knew that Chu Feng would play according to common sense today.

The power of the leg swing was fully transmitted, causing the football to fly close to the ground at an extremely fast speed and crash into the side net of Chelsea's goal.

3-0! Less than 10 minutes into the second half, Manchester United took the lead strongly.

"Chu!"

Neville ignored the strange looks from others, stood up suddenly, and roared at the top of his lungs: "Two passes and one shot! Although this game is not over yet, I dare to say that he is the best player, bar none!"

"His grasp of opportunities is simply terrifying. In the entire Premier League and even in Europe, I don't think there is anyone who can surpass him."

"Compared with the eye-catching consecutive breakthroughs last season, Chu has now become more comprehensive and mature, able to switch positions at the right time, adapt to the team's overall tactics, and seize the opportunities created by his teammates."

The Manchester United fans at Old Trafford also stood up along with Neville.

The red flags waving in the stands intertwined and turned into a bright and vast ocean, which seemed to dye the sky of Manchester red.

After falling behind by two goals in the away game, it is not easy to return to home and pull back three goals in a row.

But that’s what makes it exciting.

The emotions that Manchester United fans have accumulated for so long can finally be vented at this moment.

"Manchester United! Manchester United! Manchester United!"

"Dream Theater has no limits!"

"EFL Cup final, onward!"

Chu Feng and his teammates ran to the nearby stands, listened to the repeated praises, and high-fived the enthusiastic Manchester United fans.

Tonight, everyone wearing a red jersey had a big smile on their face.

There are also two different scenes on the sidelines of the court.

There was silence on the Chelsea bench. No one wanted to risk Sarri's troubles at this time.

And they don't have any expectations for this game.

Even if Chelsea only needs to score one goal, the game can be postponed to penalties again.

Sarri wanted to leave the court, but stopped when he turned around. After a long silence, he said in a deep voice: "Giroud, Marcos, you two take the time to warm up!"

Since he became a football coach in his early years, he has gone from the seventh tier league to Serie A without giving up a single game.

Today too.

Even if the players have lost confidence, the game will still go on.

After Mourinho finished his celebration next door, he couldn't help but sigh deeply when he saw Sarri's lonely and lonely back.

"Sarri is too stubborn. He always insists on putting Kante in the attacking midfielder. He always sticks to a 433 in the formation. His on-the-spot command and flexibility during the game are not very good."

Mourinho had nothing good to say about Sarri.

Faria continued: "If you try to reshape Chelsea and conquer the Premier League by relying on the same old tactics, the end result will be to be slapped on the beach by the waves."

But if Sarri hadn't been so stubborn, Kante wouldn't have chosen to leave Chelsea.

So Manchester United can be regarded as the ultimate beneficiary.

After Faria finished speaking, he suddenly felt that Sarri was quite pitiful. He didn’t have Mourinho’s unruliness, Guardiola’s illustrious experience, or Zidane’s popularity.
Coming from a grassroots background, I have reached where I am today through observation and learning.

Just when I was about to leave, I realized my responsibility, and the cowardice and responsibility I showed in the end was like that of many ordinary people in life.

Soon, Giroud was standing on the sidelines. He was about to replace Hazard.

To be honest, he felt that it was useless for him to play. Manchester United's defense line was Maguire and Lewis. The two of them were very capable of defending high-altitude balls, and there was Kante in front of them to sweep up.

"Every time you encounter a crisis, you come to me. Why don't you let me start?" Giroud couldn't help complaining in his heart.

However, he still works very hard after playing. After all, his professionalism is very high.

Hazard went directly back to the locker room after coming off the field. As for whether he went to steal a burger, only he can know.

After the game restarted, just as Giroud thought, Manchester United began to strengthen the backcourt defense, and in the 70th minute, Rashford replaced Mahrez and McTominay replaced Herrera.

Both are matchup substitutions.

Then Manchester United entered the middle and low defense and used defensive counterattack as the main tactic.

The two fast horses in the frontcourt suppressed Chelsea's defense, the midfield and backfield compressed the formation to build a tight defense, and Kante was left to sweep the hinterland.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Only the shouts of Manchester United fans were left at Old Trafford, but Chelsea fans never left the field, but wanted to accompany the team to fight until the last minute.

However, Chelsea players did not regain their fighting spirit, and their offensive tactics in the frontcourt began to turn into mindless crosses.

As for whether I can grab the landing spot?
That was what the center should worry about. This was so tiring for Giroud that he cursed so many times behind his back.

Beep-beep-beep!
Finally, when the football was kicked out of the sideline by Maguire, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.

Dream Theater witnessed another comeback, Manchester United advanced to the EFL Cup final!
at the same time.

In another semi-final of the English League Cup, Manchester City played away against Tottenham. The scoreboard showed 0-1, and Manchester City temporarily took the lead.

I saw Tottenham players going crazy, launching a fierce attack in the final countdown.

Because Manchester City was 2-1 Tottenham in the first round, they had to score at least two goals to send the game to overtime.

But Manchester City's full defense set up a bus in their own half.

Kane's long shot was blocked by Otamendi and bounced to De Bruyne on the right side of the court. Ding Ding received the ball and made a long pass.

The football accurately cut through the night sky and came to Foden's feet accurately.

In desperation, Trippier put down a shovel and knocked Foden down. The latter lay down on the ground to stall for time. Ali was so angry that he grabbed Foden's collar and muttered non-stop.

Anyway, it means don't delay, otherwise I will give you a good beating.

Players from the two teams immediately clashed violently, pushing and insulting each other, causing the game to be interrupted for several minutes.

After the referee finished handling the player dispute, the game ended within a few minutes.

So far, in the 2018-19 season, the Manchester City duo have advanced to the EFL Cup final.

The two teams will decide who will win the EFL Cup this season at Wembley at the end of February.

This result is not too surprising.

Originally, according to the fans' plan, Liverpool should also be able to enter the semi-finals, but they met Chelsea in the third round and were defeated by Hazard 1vs3 in stoppage time.

However, Liverpool's focus this season is not the EFL Cup. If they were eliminated early, they can focus on the league and the Champions League.
