Chapter 163: Precarious

Intermission.

The atmosphere in the Derby County dressing room was very relaxed, everyone was talking about the Leighton Baynes goal, and Leighton Baynes became the star of the dressing room because he helped the team win. After taking the lead, everyone made fun of him, or said some words of envy. After all, Baynes scored Manchester United's goal, which can't be compared with several league goals.

Leighton Bynes is also happy.

The atmosphere in the team's locker room has always been very good, and the teammates have not had too much conflict with each other. Everyone is always talking and laughing. Although there are very few really good friends, Baines still likes the team very much. The atmosphere is much better than when he was ignored at Wigan Athletic, and now, he is helping the team lead Manchester United, and he is still very excited when he thinks of that goal.

The players who had just returned to the locker room at this point were also talking about the game.

"You say, can we really win Manchester United?"

"Of course! We're Derbyshire..."

"Hahaha... Yes, we are Derby County! No, I think it should be said that our manager is the boss!"

"Yeah, the boss said that if he can win, he will definitely win!"

"Whatever Manchester United he is, we are still ahead! Leiden! Nice job!"

"Yes, well done!"

Everyone was talking and laughing and resting on their own. Soon Wansheng walked back to the locker room. When he walked in the door, everyone felt their voices were a lot quieter. People are still a little afraid of Wan Sheng, especially when Wan Sheng has a cold face, almost no one dares to look at him.

Wansheng is also satisfied with his majesty in the team, which is exactly what he needs as a head coach.

He didn't speak first. This is looking at people.

The assistant coach Diamares and Jim who followed him didn't care. They didn't have any worries about Wansheng like ordinary players, because they were Wansheng's colleagues and people who worked together. rather than players.

The two are also very happy thinking about the current game.

Diamares was not very optimistic about Wansheng's tactics. The key is that he doesn't really believe that the team can adapt to tactics in 20 days, but the reality is that the team played well on the field and scored a goal for Manchester United, although the result was beyond his expectations, But it's a good result, he's been with the Derby County club for a few years now. Very fond of the club. Whether from a personal emotional point of view or a work point of view, he is very happy to see this result.

Jim, of course, does the same.

Speaking of which, after Wan Sheng became the head coach, he had a lot less work. He was worried that his salary would be reduced, but the club's first team only has three assistant coaches and no other professional coaches. So his salary has not been reduced at all, but because the team's performance is very good. Salaries have gone up quite a bit, and Jim is happy to see the team lead Manchester United now.

The two walked behind Wan Sheng and kept talking about the game with smiles on their faces.

All in all, everyone in the locker room was happy with the game, but when everyone returned to the locker room, Wan Sheng stood up with no joy on his face, instead he poured cold water, "Don't be too happy too soon. , what we need now is calm!"

Wan Sheng said.

Everyone's attention was focused.

"You must remember, now our opponent is Manchester United, Manchester United? Do you know what the name means? They have been the hegemons of the Premier League for ten years, they have won countless honors, even this season, they are the first in the Premier League. Two, and we are the No. 1 League One, in front of them nothing..." Wan Sheng said, "So, a one-goal lead is not safe, we haven't won yet, I hope you guys In the game, you can be cautious, calm, and take the game seriously at any time!"

Everyone nodded, knowing that Wansheng was reminding everyone not to be careless.

In the game with Manchester United, there is a gap in strength, and then there is a carelessness... It is simply tantamount to giving the winning archer to the opponent.

However, after Wan Sheng said this, a smile appeared on his face, "...but I still have to say, everyone's performance is very good! You guys played great in the first half! We lead by a goal. , many people can't imagine it before the game!"

Hearing Wan Sheng's words, everyone also laughed.

Wan Sheng continued to encourage, "We are one goal ahead, and we will continue to work hard in the second half. I believe that as long as we persevere, we will definitely win! Returning to Derby County with the FA Cup trophy, I think all fans will Crazy for you."

......

Compared with the active atmosphere in the Derby County dressing room, the atmosphere in the Manchester United dressing room was not very good. Ferguson stood in the midfield with a gloomy face, and all the players around him bowed their heads.

The Manchester United players also knew they were bad in the first half, and the most direct evidence of that is that they are now a goal behind.

Such an important game, one goal behind a League One team at half-time?

They are ashamed to say the current score, so they are all worried that Ferguson will be angry, no, it should be said, they are ready to meet the coach's saliva.

But Ferguson stood with a gloomy face, but he didn't get into a rage like the players thought. Instead, he said calmly, "Forget the first half of the game!"

Some people raised their heads suspiciously, and found that Ferguson still had the same expression on his face, so they hurriedly lowered their heads again. Although they didn't know why the coach didn't get angry, it was better than being scolded.

Ferguson was actually very helpless, because he knew that in the first half of the game, he couldn't blame the players for their performance.

It's a tactical issue, it's his duel with the young Chinese.

He never thought that he would lose to that young man in this regard, and this was what annoyed him the most. Although he was in his sixties, he never admitted that he was old, especially in terms of coaching the team. It's not enough to be old like 'Old Robson', he still has energy and he feels like he can lead Manchester United to a few more titles.

But in the tactical duel in the first half, he lost. Lost completely.

The opponent used a new set of tactics against Manchester United's defense, and the effect was very good. The key was to use a long shot to break the Manchester United goal, so the team fell behind, and the reason why the team was difficult to score in the first half. It is also the stability of the opponent's defense. The team did not adopt a targeted strategy.

But the whole game is 90 minutes, winning 45 minutes is nothing, what he needs to do is let the players know how to play the next game.

This was what he had already thought about.

The opponent relies on more movement to conduct regional defense against Manchester United. This defense is quite stable and can limit the individual performance of the stars to the greatest extent, but any defense is not perfect. As long as Manchester United increase cooperation. Things will definitely get better.

Then Ferguson calmly talked about the adjustment of the second half of the game.

The conclusion is, "In the frontcourt, we must increase cooperation and reduce personal dribbling; in the backcourt, we must pay attention to restricting the penalty area, and do not let the opponent easily shoot."

This is an adjustment made entirely to Derby County's tactics.

After listening to Ferguson's tactical arrangement, some players thought of the first half of the game, and they fully understood that they are world-class players after all, and they are quite good in terms of overall situation, awareness and ability to read the game. In the game, they still don't know why the opponent's defense is doing so well. But as soon as Ferguson talked about tactical adjustments, they had a general understanding of Derby County's tactics and knew that this response was the best choice.

They took a long breath and regained their confidence in the game!

In fact, more people are very aggrieved. They are Manchester United, and the opponent, a small League One team, actually leads them in such a game?

In the second half, you have to give the opponent some color!

......

After the half-time break, the two teams filed out of the tunnel, and soon with the referee's whistle, the second half of the game began.

It can be seen that Manchester United has obviously increased their cooperation.

This is targeted play.

Those football professionals who analyzed the tactics of the two teams at half-time saw it immediately, such as Sky TV guest Lineker also commented, "Manchester United made some tactical adjustments to Derby County's defense, they The adjustment is very targeted, we can foresee that Derby County will not play very well in the second half..."

Derby County fans are also worried.

Most fans don't see what tactics are targeted. What they see is that Derby County's situation is more passive, and Manchester United's attacking threat has greatly increased.

Derby County was also very passive in the first half, but the passiveness at that time was different from now. Most of it was just Manchester United controlling the ball. They really scored the ball into the penalty area of ​​Derby County and created threats not many times, but now, the second half has only started. In five minutes, Manchester United made two threats. Although no goal was scored, the goal was always in crisis, which still made the fans feel nervous. They all stared at the game, lest the football will fly in in the blink of an eye. Derby County goal.

The situation on the field is true.

In the second half, Manchester United obviously increased their coordination and reduced their individual dribbling. Manchester United's coordination was very smooth, even if they were not the kind of team with a traditional attacking coordination style (like most of the Spanish teams, Barcelona is one of them). The most prominent), but Manchester United is the world's top team, and the team is full of famous stars. Needless to say, with the cooperation of many one-kick passes, Derby County's defense does not play much role at all. As a result, Manchester United is very good. Easily get opportunities again and again.

The game played smoothly and the Manchester United players played better, so the Derby County goal looked dangerous.

Wan Sheng was already standing on the sidelines.

He had long thought that Manchester United would make some adjustments to the offense. Because of this, he poured cold water on everyone during the half-time, reminding everyone to play seriously and not to be careless, but he did not expect that after a half-time, Manchester United would adjust. You must know that Manchester United is actually not very good at this kind of coordinated attack. The more passes, the more mistakes. However, Manchester United has the strength to suppress. It's nothing, just continue next time. Under such circumstances, the pressure on the team's defense becomes enormous.

Wan Sheng's worries are almost the same as those of the Derby County fans - he is afraid that the football will appear in his own goal in the blink of an eye.

He hopes that the team can defend as well as possible. As long as the team survives the opening period, there is an old saying, "One hit, one hit, three hits", there is still a good chance for the team to have a goal advantage.

So he stood on the sidelines and watched the game seriously.

The camera lens pointed over.

The big screen in the stadium gave Wan Sheng a close-up, his seriousness was clearly visible, and the on-site commentator couldn't help laughing and said, "It seems that Wan Sheng can't hold his breath, he is still too young, in this kind of competition, the team It's normal to be passive for a while..."

"He's still too young, he has too little experience, and he shows his emotions on his face..."

Some fans laughed and listened to the commentator's words, but they didn't have any malicious intentions. After all, the commentator's statement that Wansheng was young was not a sarcasm, but also a compliment in some respects.

However, there are still Derby County fans who complain...

Wan Sheng couldn't hold his breath?

Whether this is the case or not, they don't know, what they know is that the team is now facing Manchester United. If they think about it, their team strength is the same as Manchester United's, and Manchester United will become a League One team... . Their strength is much stronger than Manchester United. If that's the case, they won't be as worried as they are now. It will be Derby County who will suppress their opponents on the field. Don't say Wansheng, they will not fight for the goal. Worried.

Wan Sheng couldn't hold his breath?

TMD, if our team has an overwhelming advantage in the game, we can all take it easy!

......

on the playing field.

Every player at Derby is working hard, and now they have a goal advantage, and their passiveness for a while has made them work harder - they have seen the hope of winning, and they want to make this hope a reality, so everyone is In the effort, although their situation is very passive.

For ten minutes in a row, Derby County did not have a single shot on target.

They've been defending, defending, defending, and even so, they're always on the lookout for their own goal.

On the other hand, Manchester United's offense is playing very smoothly. Although it is still difficult for Manchester United to play against Derby County's defense, after all, there will be mistakes with continuous cooperation, but they have a repressive advantage, and they are not afraid at all. Derby County stole the ball, so they played with ease.

The only thing missing is a goal.

If you can't score, it doesn't matter how big the advantage is, every Manchester United player understands that, so they try to push the ball in front of Derby County.

Under the indiscriminate bombardment of Manchester United, the Derby County goal is even more at risk...(To be continued ~^~)
