Football: Starting from the Ronaldo Template

Chapter 412: Overwhelming Strength

Snap!
The ball was kicked forward by B Fee. As Maguire moved quickly, Kimpembe felt tremendous pressure, as if he was being pushed.

Then, almost uncontrollably, he lost the area he occupied.

Maguire did not hesitate at all and unexpectedly did not attack the goal, but passed the ball to the back point.

This made Buck, who came to assist, look back in horror, only to find that Chu Feng had unknowingly gone around his blind spot.

Amid the exclamations of Paris Saint-Germain fans.

Chu Feng did not have any violent aesthetic header, he just lightly tapped the football with his forehead and delivered a fatal blow!
1:0! ! !

"Beautiful! Manchester United used a set-piece to take the lead in scoring against Paris!"

"B Fee sent a corner kick, Maguire headed the ball strongly, and Chu Feng scored a goal with ease!"

"Manchester United has shown the world why they are the best!"

"It's unbelievable. I thought of many ways to score before the game, but I didn't expect the process to be so simple!"

"But it's normal to think about it. Manchester United's overall strength is definitely stronger than Paris, so it's natural for them to score goals!"

"I think maybe we can see a goal feast tonight!"

Zhan Jun explained excitedly.

I thought it would be an undecided game in the final, but I didn't expect a goal to be scored in the first half.

In the Champions League final, once one side takes the lead, the situation will change dramatically.

The lagging side will attack frantically, while the leading side will look for opportunities to expand the score.

At the Stadium of Light, amid the thunderous cheers of Manchester United fans, Chu Feng ran to the corner area and slid on his knees to celebrate.

To be honest, he thought it would be difficult for Manchester United to win three consecutive championships, just like the Galacticos Real Madrid two years ago.

But through the previous match, he found that Paris Saint-Germain's defense was a bit too extreme.

Whenever he got the ball, three people would surround him and use the logging tactic to restrict him.

But the problem is that the other players of Manchester United are not useless. They can make good use of this situation and create more space and threats.

At this time, the Paris players had to go to make up for the defense and they were left unguarded.

That's why the goal just now was so easy.

"Well done!" Maguire shouted with a red face.

When Manchester United trained corner kick tactics before, Maguire was an important part of it.

After all, he has the advantages of height and body shape, and can forcibly create positional suppression in a small and cramped penalty area.

Of course, although he had scored goals before, when he really provided the key assist in the Champions League final, Ma Datou still couldn't control his emotions.

He said silently to himself: The first Champions League title is about to be won, Harry, you must keep calm!
He didn't want to get sick in this kind of game, become the target of condemnation from Manchester United fans, or even be engraved on the pillar of shame.

"Try harder and score more goals!"

Chu Feng smiled and said: "Also don't relax in the backcourt defense, Paris' offense is still strong."

Hearing this, Maguire nodded vigorously. He felt that he was in good shape and was not inferior to Neymar and others.

Not far away, the Paris players who conceded the first goal were not as depressed as expected.

In fact, they had already done the psychological work. It was normal to concede goals against Manchester United, even if they took a low defensive stance.

But Neymar is confident of scoring a goal. As the most expensive striker in active football, no defense can stop them.

Even if the opponent is Manchester United, they can break through.

"Killian, pay attention to cutting inside when you break through the wing. I will pass and cut with you and get into the penalty area as soon as possible."

Neymar fixed his hair style.

Back then, his talent was about to overflow, just like Ronaldinho once did.

But who would have thought that they would meet two extraordinary players who have never won a Golden Globe Award.

But Ronaldinho achieved the Grand Slam early on.

"Okay, I understand." Mbappe nodded.

He also wants to win the Ballon d'Or, so if he can win the Champions League and perform well in Europe, he will have a good chance of becoming the new Ballon d'Or winner.

The Ninja Turtles were full of fighting spirit and stared at Chu Feng who was celebrating in the distance.

Football will no longer be dominated by one person.

Courtside.

"Manchester United's offensive system has changed. Let the players stop focusing on Chu all the time, narrow the defensive range, and take the initiative to compress the space."

"Also, don't let Manchester United pass the ball easily. Push the ball as far as possible to the sideline. We can't be too passive and fall into Manchester United's rhythm."

"Attack. The only way to win the game is to score goals. As long as we can drag the game into overtime, our chances of winning will increase a lot."

Tuchel rubbed his chin and kept muttering.

He didn't have a very impressive performance as a professional player.

After becoming a coach, he studied under Rangnick. His coaching career was not very good. What may have impressed the fans was the seven consecutive wins at the start of the Bundesliga in Mainz.

Later, he coached Dortmund for a mediocre performance, and was later fired by the other party due to breach of contract, and received a penalty of 300 million.

But why can he be favored by wealthy families even though he is so ordinary?
The reason is that his tactical ceiling is very high. As long as there are players who are suitable for the system, people can see hope.

However, recently he and the Paris management have had some conflicts over the issue of player recruitment.

If he fails to win the Champions League this time, he may be able to lead the team for another half a year, but he will face being fired again and receiving another 700 million euros in liquidated damages.

Apart from anything else, the penalty for breach of contract is quite satisfying.

The other side.

Mourinho and Faria high-fived to celebrate. Mourinho glanced at the Champions League trophy and pressed his hands down towards the field.

It means letting the players control the tempo and not attack with all their might like they did just now.

Do you want a wonderful process or a championship?
Mourinho's answer remains the same.

On the bench, Havertz hugged his teammates to celebrate, with a hint of anticipation deep in his eyes.

He knows his technical characteristics and is not suitable for playing against Paris Saint-Germain.

But there should be a chance to play in the second half.

The game starts again.

"Paris remained cautious and did not press forward easily. Verratti passed the ball to Di Maria!"

"A beautiful wing breakthrough, Di Maria got rid of Matic, Marquinhos hit the wall, and then passed the ball to the left!"

"Kylian Mbappe! The young player who became famous in the 2018 World Cup has now become a contender for the Golden Ball!"

"He wants to do it himself!"

Mbappe's way of breaking through is very simple, which is to use changes in rhythm combined with instantaneous bursts.

Defensive players know it, but they just can't defend it.

Mbappe touched the ball continuously with his right foot, and his center of gravity swayed synchronously.

Wan Bissaka was not panicked at all.

why?
Because of the special training received by Chu Feng in the past two years, he is no longer afraid of similar players.

Of course, if he really faced Chu Feng, he would be defeated.

But not everyone has that ability.

Even Mbappe.

Wan Bissaka slightly adjusted his position, turned sideways and was ready to pounce at any time when he showed a slight flaw.

In an instant, Mbappe was like a supercar, pushing the ball forward with all his strength and accelerating at the same time!
Before the Paris fans could cheer, Wan-Bissaka turned around almost at the same time, grabbed Mbappe's shoulder with his left hand, and kept pushing Mbappe to the side!
Mbappe frowned and stopped abruptly, barely controlling the ball. This feeling of not being able to speed up was too uncomfortable, and unlike Kyle Walker of Manchester City, the latter's speed was not inferior to his.

Wan Bissaka used his skills to limit him by walking on the edge of a foul.

"Oh shit."

Mbappe cursed in his heart and quickly passed the ball to Neymar.

After receiving the ball, the Brazilian faced Kante and kept swinging his right foot in the air, trying to deceive Kante's center of gravity.

In fact, his movements may look fancy and complicated, but they are actually composed of the most basic movements.

And these seemingly simple and basic movements can also play a huge role under his feet.

Kante lowered his body slightly and stared at Neymar.

He never liked to be passive.

Therefore, he took the initiative to move closer to press the ball, and at the same time made gestures to Xiaomai, indicating that Xiaomai should come to assist in defense.

Neymar didn't pass the ball after seeing it, he believed he could complete the breakthrough.

Suddenly, his weak-side knee and weak-side shoulder dropped, as if he was about to break through to the left.

But the next moment, when Kanter followed up, he cut the ball in the opposite direction, trying to get through Kanter's crotch.

"Are you going to break through directly?"

"No! Kante closes his crotch very quickly, and the distance between his legs is not as large as other players!"

"The reason is of course that his legs are not long enough. If it was Maguire, he would have been dribbled past!"

"Does Manchester United have a chance to fight back?"

Have.

But the Paris players were very efficient in their positioning and did not give Manchester United time to advance quickly.

Manchester United was not in a hurry to attack. They firmly controlled the ball and waited for Paris to press forward.

It seemed that they were playing passively and passed the ball back, but in fact they had no desire to attack.

After all, the leading party always holds the initiative.

"Manchester United's three-back defensive system seems to have just restrained Paris Saint-Germain's forward line."

"Since the midfield configuration is not too strong, Neymar and others can only use their personal abilities, but Manchester United's three defensive midfielders are very resolute in defense and do not give them any chance to break through."

"At the same time, Manchester United's defense is also on high alert and ready to make up for the deficit at any time."

"Beautiful! Neymar lowered his shoulders and shook, using the advantage of his long legs to get rid of Kante!"

At the Estadio de Luz, the cheers of Paris fans suddenly increased by many decibels.

They were all too familiar with this scene.

Next, Neymar will complete a stylish dribble, cross positions with Mbappe on the wing, break into the penalty area and score a wonderful goal.

Bang!
Maguire came like a tank, and rushed directly towards Neymar without caring about the ball.

At the moment of impact, Neymar lost his balance and fell to the ground.

"Wow, Paris's logging tactics are pretty ruthless, but Manchester United is not inferior!"

"Manchester United also adopted the strategy of not being able to pass the ball past Neymar, the core of the frontcourt attack!"

“It hurts just looking at it!”

Neymar's fancy style of play is bound to be targeted by defensive players.

In fact, Maguire is pretty good. He never commits malicious fouls, only tactical fouls.

If it were Pepe, Ramos and others, I'm afraid they would have used some tricks and directly injured Neymar.

"Paris got a free kick in a good position. Can they break through De Gea's defense?"

"You know, De Gea is now one of the world's top goalkeepers and he hasn't conceded a goal from a free kick in 39 games!"

"Neymar stands in front of the football. His footwork is very sharp. He is ranked among the players who have scored the most free kicks in active football!"

"Messi ranks first with 59 free kicks, and Ronaldo ranks second with 58 free kicks. The two are far ahead of the players behind them!"

"Calhanoğlu 28, Pjanic 26 and Neymar 19!"

On the field, Neymar took a deep breath and stared at Manchester United's goal.

Bah!
The football slid across the sky accurately and flew towards the upper right corner!

Paris fans couldn't help but stand up and prepare for the next celebration.

But a green glove suddenly appeared and pushed the ball out at the critical moment!
Wow! ! !
Paris fans were neither standing nor sitting, but Manchester United fans were waving their arms wildly and cheering for De Gea.

"Beautiful! De Gea!"

"The shot from the corner was useless. The Manchester United goalkeeper was in top form today!"

"This reminds me of him being all-powerful when saving penalties two years ago!"

De Gea stood up, clenched his fists and roared. He had studied Neymar early on and knew that the opponent liked to play on the right side.

That's why he used his positioning to deceive the opponent and moved in advance before Neymar kicked the ball.

Otherwise, this tricky shot could very likely change the score.

Neymar swore in annoyance, and he had a feeling before shooting - he could score.

The ball was saved by De Gea, which was really frustrating.

"Don't worry, there are still 20 minutes left in the first half, we can equalize."

Di Maria consoled.

Compared with Mbappe and Neymar, he is more mature and stable, so he knows that the more anxious he is when facing Manchester United, the easier it is to expose his flaws.

38th minute of the first half.

Paris finally couldn't sit still and began to intensify their pressing.

But this also led to gaps in the defense.

Manchester United did not hesitate at all and began to speed up and move forward.

With the three defensive midfielders moving forward together, Manchester United formed a numerical advantage in the midfield. When Kante received the ball and made a straight pass, B Fee unexpectedly slipped behind him.

The pupils of the Paris players suddenly shrank and locked onto Manchester United's No. 7.

"Even targeted defense can't stop it!"

"The sudden lateral movement, even if Kimpembe reacted, he couldn't keep up at all!"

"The ultimate explosive power can cause the opponent's defense system to collapse in an instant!"

At the Guangming Stadium, the football was stopped steadily by Chu Feng, with Kimpembe chasing him from behind and Buck blocking him in front.

How to do?
Chu Feng, who had already cracked the defense system through defensive logic, subconsciously stepped inward with his right foot!

Snap!
The football suddenly changed its trajectory and easily avoided Kimpembe.

"I'll do it!" Buck accelerated decisively, trying to regain the ball before Chu Feng touched it.

But the next moment his face was filled with shock.

The Manchester United No. 7 in front of him maintained his center of gravity unreasonably and dribbled the ball forward before him!
Buck, an outstanding player from Paris Saint-Germain's youth training system, tried his best to keep his balance and turn around, wanting to continue following up and interfering with Chu Feng.

step!
Under the spotlight of the Stadium of Light, Chu Feng's explosive steps were instantly transformed into speed, directly surpassing Buck.

Immediately afterwards, Rico, who replaced Navas, reacted extremely well and fell to the ground and sideways.

But the football still managed to sneak into the goal from the lower right corner!
2:0! ! !
