Chapter 69

Today's Old Trafford stadium is extremely lively, perhaps because of the relationship against Paris Saint-Germain, the solidarity of Manchester United fans can be called terrifying.

Red soaked the entire stand, churning like magma.

The loud singing soared into the sky, and every Manchester United fan was roaring loudly.

Manchester United desperately needed a game to prove themselves. Since Ferguson left, they seem to have lost their magic.

The former European Red Devils have become weak and depressed.

The red storm that swept across Europe has disappeared for many years, and Manchester United fans are still recalling the indomitable Manchester United.

The figure of Yi Le appeared on the big screen, and the on-site commentator was introducing various data of Yi Le.

Looking at Yi Le in the stadium, the eyes of Manchester United fans are full of complex colors.

Last year, they raised funds to buy Yi Le, but they were rejected by him and the club.

They understand that Manchester United is a once brilliant team, but now Manchester United can no longer win Yi Le's favor.

They thought a lot about what if.

If Lu Xiaopang is still there, if Ronaldinho is still there, if Beckham is still there...if Ferguson personally invited him, would he still refuse?

I have to admit that the current Manchester United's competitiveness is low, and it is no longer the European Red Devils.

At the end of the warm-up session, the two teams returned to the locker room to prepare. Yi Le sorted his socks and listened to Boas' tactical arrangements.

In this game, Paris played relatively conservatively. After all, it is Old Trafford. They need to be more cautious. This respect still needs to be given.

Yi Le's position appears in the midfielder, which is the information of the organization behind.

In fact, Paris' tactics are easy to analyze, as long as you pay attention to Yi Le's position.

The reason why other teams can't target this tactic is because they can't effectively limit Paris' midfield.

In other words, Yi Le is too strong.

Yi Le + Kanter's offensive and defensive system.

The dual-core system of Yi Le + Neymar provides a stable guarantee for Paris' midfield.

After patting the socks, Yi Le took out a bandage and wrapped it around his ankle, wrapping it round and round. After fixing his ankle, Yi Le put on his combat boots and jumped on the spot a few times, feeling pretty good .

Five minutes later, players from both sides appeared in the player channel.

The information of the starting players on both sides also appeared on the big screen.

Manchester United (4-3-1-2):

Goalkeeper: De Gea

Defenders: Ashley Young, Bailly, Lindelof, Luke Shaw.

Midfield: Herrera, Fred, Pogba, Lingard.

Forwards: Rashford, Martial.

 …

Paris Saint-Germain (4-3-3):

Goalkeeper: Keylor Navas

Defenders: Bernat, Kimpembe, Thiago Silva, Vargue.

Midfielders: Kanter, Marquinhos, Yi Le.

Forwards: Di Maria, Mbappe, Neymar.

Looking at the lineups of both sides, the French commentator said: "Facing Manchester United with a two-forward system, Paris took a defensive counterattack posture. Boas is still very cautious and gives enough respect."

"On the front line, Cavani was unable to play due to injury, and Mbappe replaced the center position."

"The teenager Wague, who performed well in the last Champions League group match, also made his start. It seems that after that game, the teenager played very well, and Villas-Boas gave him enough trust."

"Of course, the focus of this game is still on the midfield, Pogba VS Yi!"

"These two are the best in the current midfield, but in fact, Pogba needs to withstand the pressure from Yi, with Fred's protection, what kind of energy Pogba can explode, we will wait and see! "

The two sides came to their respective halves, and Manchester United took the lead to kick off.

Martial and Rashford stood in the middle circle, and it could be seen that the expressions of the two were quite dignified. Obviously, they were under a lot of pressure facing the thriving Paris Saint-Germain.

On the other hand, the players in Paris don't show much expression, and they seem to be able to do a job with ease.

At 17:00, the referee was looking down at his watch and actively communicating through the headset.

After a while, the sharp whistle sounded, announcing the official start of the game.

"In the 2018/2019 season, the UEFA Champions League 1/8 knockout round, Manchester United's home game against Paris Saint-Germain officially begins!"

Accompanied by the high-pitched voice of the commentator, Manchester United chose to attack aggressively after kick-off.

Martial passed the ball back, Lingard continued to pass back, and finally the ball came to Pogba's feet.

Paris also completed penetration at the same time, but it seemed to be much more cautious than before, and the frontcourt was less aggressive. In this way, Pogba faced much less pressure.

Yi Le pressed forward, and Kanter and Marquinhos retreated to the back line, putting on a defensive stance.

Yi Le has been observing, especially Pogba's ball, but he has to admit that with Fred's protection, Pogba has played a lot more freely and has a strong sense of presence.

Manchester United is passing the ball forward, and Pogba plays the role of intersperser very well.

In possession, Manchester United was not content with the status quo and began to tighten slowly.

"Manchester United has started to act. It can be seen that the two forwards Rashford and Martial are ready to move, and Lingard is not retreating. On the contrary, Pogba's position is much higher. I have to say, there is After getting Fred's protection, Pogba's condition is much better."

Pogba played very comfortably, and he likes Fred, a dutiful and protective player.

In this way, he can control the rhythm without any worries.

Although I really don't want to admit that he is really not qualified for the core position, at least he is not a single-core player like Yi Le and De Bruyne.

The meaning of the core is too heavy. Once the core is invisible, the entire team will be over.

But now, Pogba feels that he is the core, and playing football has become much smoother.

He looked at the opposite Yi Le who kept shaking his head. For all the active midfielders, Yi Le is the big devil.

Thanks to his aggressive style of play, countless midfielders have been kicked out by him.

Yi Le will not grind your patience with you, he will just kill you directly. When you think Paris' offensive is about to ease, there will often be surprising through balls or long passes that directly tear the defense.

Simple, brutal and direct!

Pogba understands that he needs to keep pressing down on Yi Le and not give him any chance to resist. This person's ability to seize opportunities is too terrifying, and he can't make any mistakes.

Now, the most important thing is to stabilize the rhythm and make Yi Le play more uncomfortable than necessary.

The situation in the arena is very subtle, and it surprised the fans and commentators a little bit.

"Pogba seems to be suppressing Yi!" England BBC commentator Gavin said in surprise.

He has guessed various game processes, but he has never thought that Pogba can suppress Yi Le.

But judging from the current situation of the game, Pogba is indeed in control of the rhythm, Manchester United played smoothly, while Paris kept retreating, and Yi Le did not even have a chance to touch the ball after the opening.
