Football: Starting from the Ronaldo Template

Chapter 340: Community Shield Defeat

Beep-beep-beep!
After the referee's three whistles, the first round of the International Champions Cup ended, and Manchester United defeated Inter Milan with a score of 3:1.

Chu Feng scored twice before the end of the first half.

It’s just that teammates were replaced one by one to experiment with various combinations and to give new and old players time to get used to each other.

So after the start of the second half, Manchester United's attack was temporarily blocked.

However, Inter Milan is not that strong in the new season.

The two teams were deadlocked until the 64th minute of the game, when Grealish was tripped in the penalty area and the referee decisively awarded a penalty.

Chu Feng completed his hat trick in one fell swoop.

Finally, when the game was nearing its end, Manchester United relaxed a little bit and Inter Milan took advantage of the cross from the wing, and Lautaro scored a goal.

At this moment, the Olympic Stadium turned into a boiling red ocean.

All the fans in the stadium were shouting the same name.

In fact, most clubs do not take competitions like the International Champions Cup seriously, and it is normal to deal with them by rotating substitutes.

It’s just that Manchester United is very sensible.

There was no use of youth team players to fool around, all of them were the main players for next season, and Chu Feng was even allowed to play the entire game.

This also won the favor of Chinese fans.

After today's game ended, the fans at the scene did not leave, but looked forward to the next session.

Trophy display.

When seven glittering trophies were placed in the center of the stadium.

Manchester United fans felt a strong sense of satisfaction.

England's unprecedented seven championships, no one has ever done it before.

As for the future.

I guess it will be difficult in the future, even for Manchester United themselves.

After all, they had the right time, place and people last season, otherwise they would not have been able to defeat the powerful Manchester City five times in a row.

By the time all the sessions were over, everyone was exhausted.

Chu Feng lay on the soft bed, thinking about today's game.

Manchester United's strength on paper is very strong, and their players' values ​​are higher than each other, but that doesn't mean there are no problems.

The key point still lies in the attacking midfielder.

Although Pogba's temper is very annoying, his strength is unquestionable.

The strongest midfielder template in active service.

This is how the fans evaluate him.

Even though Havertz is a genius, his physique and skills are still relatively immature.

It is impossible to ask him to completely replace Pogba.

Therefore, he had to retreat frequently to support and help Havertz share some of the organizational tasks.

What if it’s B Fee?

Big Brother B seemed to like spreading his hands. Chu Feng had seen it several times, but he didn't dare to do it to himself.

Except for a slightly bad mentality.

B Fee performed well on both offense and defense, especially his ability to run without the ball.

To put it simply, smart positioning and diligent running allow him to drive Manchester United's frontcourt attack.

And this is exactly what Havertz and Pogba lack.

Therefore, even though B Fee's personal ability is slightly behind that of the top players.

But it is enough for him to get a stable rotation and even a starting position in Manchester United.

"The boss should like this kind of player."

Chu Feng talked to himself.

The most basic standard for Mourinho's use of players is that they must have a positive running attitude.

As for Grealish.

Chu Feng thought the young man from Birmingham was pretty good. He had a clear idea of ​​his position - to play a supporting role.

Run to create space, attract defensive players, and force the opponent to foul.
Grealish also made great contributions on the defensive end.

He can often be seen rushing back from the wing, or even returning to the penalty area to participate in the defense.

And he is not vague when he is needed to score a goal.

At the same time, the newly introduced left back Sandro is a typical Brazilian full-back.

He is full of speed and power.

A bit similar to Marcelo's technical style.

The wing combination of Grealish and Sandro performed very well in this game.

Of course, the biggest surprise is McTominay.

After two seasons of trials and tribulations, even though he sat on the bench most of the time, he never lowered his demands on himself.

If Chu Feng is the one who trains the hardest, then he is the second hardest working one.

Now his defensive positioning, confrontation and assisting defense awareness and so on.

Compared with two years ago, there has been a significant improvement.

"The boss is worthy of being the boss. Looking at the level of his recruitment, I'm afraid only his future father-in-law can compare to him."

Chu Feng sighed and suddenly remembered something.

Then I called Maria.
-
The International Champions Cup Shanghai Station will be held in five days.

Manchester United vs Tottenham.

Premier League civil war.

In the 17th minute of the first half, national curses were heard at Hongkou Stadium.

Because Tottenham played so damn dirty!
"Ali paid the price of a yellow card for his malicious foul."

“But I don’t think it’s reasonable!”

"Because his steal was aimed at Xiao Chu's ankle. If Xiao Chu hadn't dodged in time and didn't get stepped on, he would have been seriously injured today!"

"Why not give a red card for this action?"

"Is the referee blind?"

Amid the curses from tens of thousands of fans at the scene, Ali was still a little unconvinced and went to the referee Ma Ning to defend himself.

result?

How could Ma Ning tolerate you? He put the yellow card into his pocket and took it out again.

Ali was completely stunned.

He has played so many games in his career, but he has never seen a similar scene!

Isn't it just expressing dissatisfaction?

Why another yellow card?

Courtside.

Pochettino breathed a sigh of relief and looked up with lingering fear.

The baffle is full of water bottles, cups, key chains and other miscellaneous items.

He really admires Ali.

Don’t you know what Chu’s status is in China?

If Tottenham had defeated their players at their home ground, they probably wouldn't have been able to leave the stadium today.

Fortunately, he was sent off with a red card.

Thinking of this, Pochettino looked at Ma Ning with gratitude, thinking that he was really a fair referee.

Ali on the field wanted to say something but was quickly pushed out by his teammates.

Get out of here now.

We want to get back to England safely!

Chu Feng did not continue playing and was replaced by Greenwood early.

But the Manchester United players can't accept their core player being treated like this.

The 35th minute of the game.

Son Heung-min received a pass from Ndombele and accelerated on the left side to try to break through.

Wan Bissaka didn't even look at the ball and just tackled the player.

boom!!!--

Son Heung-min flew out, rolled several times and hit the billboard.

The audience at the scene exclaimed that it was so exciting!

Seeing Ma Ning showing him a yellow card, Wan Bissaka just shrugged.

It doesn't matter.

When he first came to Manchester United, Chu Feng took him to practice every day, taught him defensive skills, and took care of him in life.

So who dares to mess with Chu Feng?

He'll get whoever he wants.

Son Heung-min gritted his teeth and stood up, signaling to the head coach to make a substitution.

He limped past the bench and gave Ali a vicious look.

This guy caused trouble and made himself take the blame.

However, the matter is not over yet.

In the 34th minute of the first half, Harry Kane got the ball outside the penalty area and B Fee kicked him in the calf.

It’s time to say it or not.

Big B Feige's playing style is indeed not clean.

Kane was not going to win the championship in the first place, he just tried his best to play football honestly, but he was beaten like this by B Fee.

Kane was sent off with a yellow card.

Next, Ma Ning became the most handsome guy, playing cards, playing cards, playing cards.
By the end of the first half, 14 yellow cards and 1 red card were issued. This is the true card master.

After the fifteen-minute halftime break.

Both teams replaced their players with substitutes at the same time.

The previous violent fouls have disappeared, and the viewing experience has improved a lot.

But the audience still prefers the atmosphere of the first half.

After all, it satisfies humans' latent desire for violence.

In the end, Manchester United beat Tottenham 3:2 and won their second victory.

According to Tottenham's official report after the game, Son Heung-min's injury was quite serious, and it seemed that his groin was torn.

Chu Feng, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened and even participated in the post-match autograph event.

At this point, Manchester United's International Champions Cup China leg ended and they boarded a flight to the United States.

The last game is against AC Milan.

Today's AC Milan is even worse than Inter Milan and has lost the glory of the red and black overlord in the past.

"Zlatan."

Chu Feng and Ibrahimovic hugged each other tightly, "Why do you want to go to Serie A?"

"I think Serie A is more suitable for me, and it was a good experience when I played for Milan."

Ibrahimovic explained.

He has deep feelings for AC Milan.

If it weren't for the club's financial problems, he would not have been sold to Paris Saint-Germain along with Thiago.

That's why he accepted the invitation from Maldini and Boban.

"Thiago, long time no see, you really know how to pick a team."

Ibrahimovic teased: "It's easy to win the championship with Manchester United, not to mention that there is Chu. You don't know how surprised I was when I first met Chu and found that his technical style was similar to Ronaldo's."

"I can understand."

Tiago nodded. "Your idol is Ronaldo. You even put up his poster at home. Is it possible that you have changed it to Chu now?"

"Get lost! Now the whole house is filled with posters of myself!"

Ibrahimovic punched Thiago.

This game was not as crazy as the one against Tottenham, everyone played a friendly match with great understanding.

In the end, Manchester United won the game 2:1.

After playing three International Champions Cup games, Manchester United had almost gotten used to the team and returned to Manchester early.

Next comes the highlight before the season opens.

Community Shield.

As a tournament held annually by the English Football Association, its value is not very high.

But it is also a tournament that Tottenham has never won.

The Premier League champions versus the FA Cup winners.

Manchester United won both championships last season, so the opposing team was changed to the Premier League runner-up.

Manchester United vs Manchester City.

The two teams met again.

As the saying goes: When enemies meet, they are particularly jealous of each other.

Manchester City has been looking forward to revenge for a long time and is always thinking about getting back at the opponent.

So the full main lineup was fielded.

And what about Manchester United?

Since the UEFA Super Cup is just five days away, Mourinho chose to rotate.

"Is it because there is no prize money in the Community Shield and all the proceeds from the game are donated to charity that Manchester United is so unconcerned?"

Sky Sports commentator Carragher said.

"Don't think too badly of Manchester United."

Neville retorted dissatisfiedly, "Manchester United chose to strategically give up the Community Shield purely because of schedule conflicts. If we really want to talk about bonuses, the seven championships including the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup will be enough for Manchester United."

While speaking, he also did not forget to mock others.

Sure enough, Carragher's face darkened when he heard this and he fell into silence for a long time.

Manchester United is indeed qualified to give up the Community Shield.

The courtside at this time.

Mourinho and Guardiola shook hands, the latter's face full of unwillingness.

What he wants to beat is the complete Manchester United.

Instead of the Red Devils' youth team.

"I didn't expect the Manchester United management to sell Pogba and others. I thought this matter would drag on for a long time."

Guardiola said casually.

Since the game is no longer suspenseful, why not sit down and chat?

"They are capitalists, not fools. Can't they tell at a glance who can bring more benefits?"

Mourinho chuckled.

"I heard that a Chinese company wants to invest and has offered a high price?"

Guardiola asked doubtfully.

If a Chinese enterprise were to take over, Chu Feng's say in Manchester United might be incredibly high.

For example, Beckenbauer in the last century.

A total ball tyrant.

He almost controls the national team and the club, and anyone who disobeys him will be fired.

"I think you should know Chu better than me. If he really wants someone to leave, it means that person is not good enough."

Mourinho doesn't care about the reduction of his authority.

Of course, if he were younger, he would not be able to tolerate it.

But he is old.

Besides, he believed in Chu Feng's character and would never do anything reckless.

"That's true."

Guardiola nodded in approval, "Otherwise I wouldn't have handed my daughter to him."

"Hey, have you introduced your daughter to Chu?"

Guardiola raised his eyebrows, seeming a little proud.

See it.

Even if you beat me five times in a row, Chu Weilai is still my son-in-law.

According to the Chinese saying: a son-in-law is half a son, so there is no need to talk about the relationship.

No matter what, you are just Chu's coach.

"hehe."

Mourinho had a fake smile.

suddenly.

The situation on the pitch is changing.

Foden got rid of Dalot and Tuanzebe in succession and shot into the dead corner of the goal from the edge of the penalty area.

Manchester United 0:1 Manchester City!

Foden excitedly ran towards the camera and slid on his knees passionately.

Both himself and Chu Feng came from the youth training of Manchester City and Manchester United respectively, so we would be compared together by fans.

But can they be compared?

Of course it's not that they can't be compared, it's just that you have to find the right angle.

For example, Chu Feng has many champions and good skills.

Foden got married early, has many children and is good at English.

Both of them have their own merits.

Looking at the overly excited Foden, De Bruyne coughed twice.

He still cares about face.

After scoring the goal, Manchester City showed the level of the five runners-up.

He began to use quick passing and control to tear apart Manchester United's defense.

Finally, in the 38th minute of the first half, the score was changed again.

Facing Manchester United youngster Gomes, De Bruyne made room and sent a long arc pass.

The ball accurately found Aguero who was advancing into the penalty area.

Poor Romero was pierced through again.

After Manchester City scored two goals, it felt a bit boring.

no way.

Manchester United's rotation lineup didn't even have the strength to fight back, so they didn't feel too happy even if they won.

"At least they can field a few key players."

Guardiola was powerless to complain.

"Wouldn't that boost your morale?"

Mourinho smiled like a fox, "Let the Premier League decide the outcome."

When the referee blew the final whistle.

Manchester City won 3:0 against Manchester United and lifted the Community Shield.

At least the seven-game losing streak against Manchester United was interrupted.
