Chapter 62 General Demeanor
In this game, Derby County has a player who is not good at his position. It is Leighton Baines, who replaces Ribery and is responsible for playing the left midfielder.
After Leighton Baines came to Derby County, he has always been the main full-back. The defense is very solid and he has done a good job in attacking. However, it will always be a little uncomfortable to change positions. The second time, the performance was not very good, but Wansheng still let him replace Ribery's position in this game, and did not choose 'Jianjinyou' Lu Xi and others, Wansheng was interested in Baines' long-range shooting ability .
Counter-attacks are not just about hitting the penalty area, doing single-handed shots or something. In fact, such counter-attacks are very rare, especially against a team like Manchester United. Unless it comes to the last time, if Manchester United is still behind and eager to fight hard Press on, otherwise, even if Manchester United is attacking at other times, the defense in the backcourt will not be too sparse, so more counterattacks just take advantage of the opponent's unstable defense to attack quickly and use the pass to find shooting opportunities.
So long-range shots from the outside of the penalty area are still very important.
Wansheng's advice to Baines before the game was, "Have the opportunity to cut in the middle and choose to shoot directly in front of the penalty area."
Wansheng still trusts Baynes' ability very much. After more than a year of training, Baynes has improved in all aspects. Although dribbling is not his specialty, when he has a chance, he will cut the ball inside. Going to shoot directly in the middle, he can still do well.
Of course, only when necessary, this can be regarded as a means of scoring goals.
In terms of passing, Baines' ability is mediocre and can't bring much support to the team, but this Derby County is mainly defensive. Without Van der Vaart and Ribery, they want to rely on frontal advancement. Breaking the Manchester United goal is a bit too difficult.
But so far. Baines didn't show much on offense, which has something to do with Derby's offense rarely, and most of the time, football doesn't play on the left, without Ribery. Many teammates still prefer to give the ball to Morris. Attack from the middle, or give it to Ivan Crewe to attack from the right flank.
Ivan Crewe's performance is indeed very active.
Manchester United and him are C-Ronaldo. Compared with C-Ronaldo, Ivan Crewe is a lot worse in terms of offensive ability, whether it is dribbling, speed, etc. C-Ronaldo is much better than Ivan Crewe. But C-Ronaldo is not good at defending, and Manchester United has little restrictions on Ivan Crewe on the flank.
In the first half, Ivan Crewe's performance made the Pride Stadium cheer on several occasions.
Wan Sheng noticed this, and he was very pleased that Ivan Crewe was able to perform well. Ivan Crewe was completely cultivated by him. When he came to Derby County two years ago, Ivan Crew was just A midfield substitute in Gregory's team. There is still a lot of difference in ability in all aspects, but now he can perform well in the game against Manchester United. This kind of success is also his own success, but Wansheng knows better. It is extremely difficult to find a chance to break Manchester United's goal just by relying on Ivan Crewe's offense. There must be someone else to support him, otherwise it's just a right back Gary -Neville, enough trouble for Ivan Crew.
Wan Sheng noticed the situation on the field, he looked at Leto Ziegler, and suddenly shouted, "Leto! Leto!"
He waved to Leto Ziegler.
Ziegler hurriedly approached, and Wan Sheng made a gesture, "You have to keep up! Remember what I said to you?"
Ziegler nodded.
He remembered what Wansheng often told him, to keep up with the team's offensive rhythm, and to insert assists when necessary, "An excellent full-back should not only defend, but also pay attention to defending, and also appropriately insert assists. Contribute to the team's offense!"
Now that the team is on defense most of the time, Ziegler is still a little hesitant, but now that the coach has said, maybe now is the right time?
he thought.
......
The next two counterattacks from Derby County did not pose any threat, but Ziegler stepped in. Manchester United didn't notice Ziegler. Because of the two attacks, Ziegler just ran forward and didn't even touch the ball.
This time, Alfred made a clearance in the penalty area, the football flew straight to the right of the center line, and Leighton Bynes stopped the ball just in the running position. Taking advantage of the unguarded surroundings, he hurried forward and quickly brought the ball forward. ball.
Baynes' speed is still very fast. At this time, Manchester United is in a hurry to return to the defense, and they are constantly running backwards. They did not come to defend his players head-on. Perhaps Baynes' previous performance made Manchester United players careless. There were very few balls, and it did not pose any threat to Manchester United’s goal. The limited number of offenses to get the ball basically passed the ball directly to teammates, so Manchester United players did not feel that Baynes was a threat.
But this time, Baines did what Wansheng told him to do.
After dribbling the ball over the center line, seeing Scholes coming to press, Baines suddenly dribbled the ball 90 degrees and turned towards the middle.
The Manchester United players immediately realized the threat. The central defenders Ferdinand and O'Shea hurriedly pressed a few steps towards the middle, and they were more strict with Kluivert in front, but Baines did not intend to pass the ball. He had tried a few times before. The second time I went to pass the ball, the chances were not very good. Passing to the penalty area was almost the same as passing the ball to the opponent.
This time Bynes chose to shoot directly.
He still has some confidence in long-range shots. Of course, not every ball can be played very well. At least a few balls can pose a threat to the opponent's goal. It is quite good to have such a degree of anything outside the penalty area.
Carefully and step by step with the ball quickly, Baines will complete the shot with a swing of his right leg.
However, Manchester United's blockade of the front of the penalty area is still very tight. When Baines did this, the central defender O'Shea jumped almost at the same time, just to block the football with his body.
"bump!"
The football hit O'Shea's body and bounced off.
"O'Shea helped Manchester United resolve a crisis!" the British BBC sports commentator exclaimed, "Bains' long-range shooting ability is still quite good. In the game between Derby County and Chelsea, he used long-range shots to help Derby scored a goal and helped the team win, and this season, he has scored four goals in his position so far. As a full-back, the efficiency of the goals is still very good."
"This Wansheng put Baines on the left wing to replace Ribery. Obviously Wansheng hopes Baines can use his long-range shooting ability to help the team find opportunities. But so far, Baines Enns hasn't had a good performance yet. The shot was also blocked by Manchester United's central defender O'Shea. At present, on the pitch, Baines seems a little powerless to perform..."
The commentator was talking, but found that the voice of Pride Stadium did not drop.
He glanced at the big screen and noticed that the football was still at the feet of Derby County. After the ball flew out, it was the backfield teenager Leto Ziegler who got the ball.
Speaking of Leighton Bynes, with a few goals and a solid defense. There is still some fame in English football. In contrast, Leto Ziegler, who is less than 19 years old, is a lot worse. Last season, he failed to play the main force in Derby County at all. The number of appearances this season has increased, but to say The performance of people's attention is still too little, too little.
So when Leto Ziegler got the ball, the commentator didn't think of his name for the first time, so he hurriedly said, "The football was taken by the Derby County teenager...! Derby County's The attack continues!"
After a shot from Bynes just now. The atmosphere in the stadium was much tense, and the rhythm was much faster than before. When Ziegler got the ball and took it forward, the Manchester United players hurriedly stepped up their defense against other players, and the convenient Roy Keane also pressed the past.
As the double captain of Manchester United and the Irish national team, he played for Manchester United at the age of 22 and played for Manchester United for 11 years. Roy Keane, who is still in great shape, is not a big name, especially his ability to press in the middle. Prominent, the world knows this, so when Roy Keane goes to guard Leto Ziegler, everyone thinks Ziegler can pass the ball.
Roy Keane naturally thought so too, so he just rushed over and forced Leto Ziegler to pass the ball.
But this time Ziegler deduced what is called 'a new born calf is not afraid of tigers'. When he saw Keane pressing over, his first reaction was to pass the ball, but after a glance, he did not find that his teammates had a good position, and looked When Keane's action was a bit 'too obvious', Ziegler subconsciously took the ball to the left, and immediately followed up with an acceleration.
Roy Keane was so easily shaken!
Roy Keane didn't expect this result at all. He was a little negligent just now and didn't pay attention to the young boy in front of him at all, but after he was passed, he was still in place, as if he didn't. I dare to believe that the other party really dares to go to him.
But with this extraordinary, the voice of Pride Stadium is even louder!
"Teenager, Leto Ziegler, he passed Manchester United captain Roy Keane!" The commentator Alfie exclaimed excitedly.
Wan Sheng on the sidelines also pursed his lips and smiled.
This passing is a bit unexpected, Ziegler's dribbling ability is not strong, obviously Roy Keane is too careless.
But this extraordinary, has found an opportunity for Derby County!
When Leto Ziegler got rid of Roy Keane, he found a gap in Manchester United's defense. Manchester United had to separate players to block it. At the same time, it was also a little flustered. Morris on one side ran out of the space, and The location is the left side of the restricted area!
Ziegler stabbed the ball without thinking.
Morris receives a pass in the box!
Manchester United looked even more flustered when they saw Morris get the ball in the penalty area. That position is too dangerous. In addition, Morris is definitely the core player of this Derby County team on the field. Such a player gets the ball in the penalty area. , enough to pose a fatal threat to Manchester United's goal, O'Shea and Neville didn't even think about it, they rushed straight towards Morris, and the two formed a double-team on Morris.
At this time, in front of Morris, it seems that there is only one way to go - shoot directly!
This position is not bad, but the direct shot is likely to be blocked by the opponent. When O'Shea and Neville ran over, Morris' shot space was too small. Reiss still waved his right foot, while O'Shea, who was standing on the inside, didn't even think about jumping up again, trying to block the shot with his body.
But when he jumped from the spot, O'Shea saw the football roll past his feet from the corner of his eye!
He was deceived!
Morris didn't choose to shoot, but after deceiving O'Shea with a fake, he directly crossed the ball to the other side of the penalty area!
All eyes moved to the other side with the football.
There, Ivan Kru, who was inserted in the back, was not defended at all. He ran to the position steadily, waved his right foot against the football, and slammed the ball directly.
"Bang!"
With a strong shot, the sound of the wind blew up, and the football rushed towards the goal in an instant.
Although Manchester United goalkeeper Carroll made a strong save, the speed of the football was too fast and the angle was a bit tricky. He could only watch the ball fly into the goal.
......
“Goooooooooooooooooooal!!!!!!”
"Ivan Kru! Ivan Kru!"
"Ivan Crewe helped Derby County break the deadlock, 1:0, Derby County led Manchester United! This result was absolutely unexpected to many people. Van der Vaart and Ribery did not play in this game, and they didn't even watch from the bench. Derby County is ahead! It's amazing!"
The British BBC broadcast commentator yelled, like he said, this is really unexpected for many people, and he can't think of it, so he is very excited at the moment, "Ivan Crewe is a right midfielder for Derby County, this season he has often Starting. Although he is very inconspicuous on the pitch, Ivan Crewe's goal rate is very high. So far this season, he has helped Derby County score 7 goals in the Premier League. The most goals scored except Van der Vaart, his free-kicks and post-cuts are always a deadly threat to the opponent!"
"But this ball, more thanks to Morris..."
The BBC commentator continued, "Morris showed a general demeanor. In the penalty area, he calmly fooled O'Shea, passed the ball to the right, and was able to maintain such a stable mentality in the penalty area. Really amazing! "
Other commentators and media also spoke about Morris.
Absolutely half of this goal is attributed to Morris. Morris got the ball on the right side of the penalty area. He had a direct shot, but he calmly passed the ball to the right side. This precise pass alone is enough It deserves a lot of praise, not to mention that there was still an O'Shea between Maurice and Ivan Crew at the time.
It is definitely commendable to still maintain this stable mentality in the penalty area.
......
on the field.
Ivan Kru also found Morris for the first time and hugged him tightly.
Ivan Crewe scored a lot, but was still very excited after scoring, mainly to break Manchester United's goal, but also in such a passive situation.
Meanwhile, the same thing happened on the Derby County bench.
Wansheng hugged everyone around him, and others wanted to embrace each other to the fullest. At this moment, the shouts had filled the entire Pride Stadium, and the atmosphere of joy filled the entire Great Derby County town.
Wan Sheng is still quite happy.
When the team needs to rotate and rest, and against Manchester United, there is not much hope of winning. Even he is not too sure. He can only say that he will fight and fight for it. The situation is that if you let Manchester United go ahead, the team will win and even get the points hope will become slim, but now Derby County still has the goal.
He knew that with a goal, the second half would be much better. (To be continued ~^~)
