Chapter 1,103, Veterans and New Walls
Jintiger looked up at Alonso on the field, his brows furrowed, thinking about the next tactical arrangement.
At this time, Alonso was bent over and half squatting, covering his knees with his hands, panting. Although the game had only passed for more than an hour, Alonso was already feeling a little tired.
Alonso is very sure that today's game is definitely the most difficult game he has ever experienced.
Marking Ribery in the first half and Robben in the second half was simply a form of abuse for Alonso. His offensive ability could not be used at all, and his defensive ability was greatly tested.
Now Alonso feels that his legs are shaking suddenly, and there seems to be some signs of cramping.
Taking advantage of the dead ball opportunity, Van Dijk ran to Alonso: "Maxi, are you okay?"
Alonso shook his head: "It's okay, I'm just a little tired."
Kanter also came over: "I will lean closer to you in a while to help you defend."
In the following period, Bayern's offensive became more and more fierce, especially Robben on the right, who frequently suppressed Alonso.
Five minutes later, Alonso was tested again.
"Robben pressed from the right again and he dribbled quickly! Alonso just followed him and retreated quickly!"
"The situation now is similar to when we conceded the ball just now. Manchester United's defense is in danger!"
"Kante went up to help defend, and Robben was caught in a double-team!"
"Robben didn't cut inside this time, he knocked the ball into the middle!"
"Rooney received the ball! He cooperated with Muller in the penalty area! He kicked the ball and shot! The ball missed the goal post and flew out of the baseline!"
"This opportunity was so dangerous! Manchester United almost conceded again!"
This goal made Manchester United's defense even more depressed.
Because Kanter helped defend Alonso, he gave Rooney more opportunities in the middle, which caused a dangerous situation.
At this time Cross ran back: "I'm here to help defend Rooney in the middle!"
As a result, Manchester United's defense has become more stable, but its offense has become weaker.
In the next few minutes, even Vidal and Martinez dared to rush forward and kick. There were constant dangers in front of Manchester United's goal.
Not only that, when Robben was heavily targeted by Manchester United, Bayern's Franck Ribery became active. Robben frequently moves in a wide range, and Ribery's dribbling and cutting inside are also world-class!
Kimmich was marking Ribery in the penalty area. Although he didn't give him many good opportunities, dangers continued.
Jintiger looked at the bench off the court. He missed Nainggolan a little at this time. If Nainggolan is replaced at this time, Bayern's offense will definitely be disrupted and torn apart. The fierce pressure Nainggolan will bring to the opponent is absolutely terrifying.
But now there are not many cards that Manchester United can play on the bench...
Jin Taige was thinking about how to make substitution adjustments, when something changed on the field!
When Alonso was defending Robben, he fell to the ground to make a tackle and was kicked in the ankle by Robben. He did not stand up for a long time!
The referee stopped the game and Manchester United's team doctor rushed on to check. Alonso looked very painful, and Adolf didn't know the extent of his injury.
Now that the game has gone on for nearly 70 minutes, even if Alonso can recover and play, his physical condition is almost unsustainable.
In this case, Kim Tiger decisively replaced Ashley Young and asked him to come on as a substitute.
Ashley Young quickly ran onto the field and came to the left back position.
Manchester United's medical team took Alonso off the field and Adolf conducted a careful examination. A few minutes later, Adolf raised his head and nodded to Jin Taige: "Don't worry, it's no problem. No muscles or bones were injured, just a twist. Just rest for a few days, no problem!"
Jin Taige was relieved.
Manchester United now has a lot of injured players. If Alonso is added to the mix, the next game will be really difficult.
Alonso had already put ice on his leg and was sitting on the bench. He said apologetically to Kim Tiger: "Boss, I didn't perform very well today.
I broke through the opponent several times before conceding the ball once..."
Jin Taige patted him on the shoulder and consoled him: "Maxi, you have performed very well! You can limit the attack of Robery's combination to the greatest extent. You are already the top left back. Have a good rest and recover as soon as possible. , I’m waiting for you to continue dealing with Robery next round!”
The two were chatting when suddenly the Bayern fans in the stands burst into loud cheers!
Could it be that he lost the ball again?
Jin Taige was shocked and quickly looked towards the court. Alonso also sat up straight and stared in the direction of the court.
It turns out that Bayern is on the offensive again!
This time it was Ribery's attack from the left. The Frenchman made two cycling moves in a row, almost knocking Kimmich unconscious. But Kimmich remained unmoved and stayed close to Ribery.
The German boy is really difficult to deal with! Ribery thought to himself.
When facing Alonso in the first half, Ribery felt relatively relaxed, but when facing Kimmich in the second half, Ribery never had any good opportunities. Kimmich's defense was watertight, which was difficult. Find a breakthrough.
Ribery thought for a moment and still did not choose to dribble the ball himself. He passed a long pass to the feet of Robben on the right and moved it in a wide range.
After Robben's ball, he glanced at Ashley Young in front of him, without any hesitation at all, dribbling the ball towards Ashley Young!
Alonso has been completely defeated by me, so you won’t get anything!
Robben dribbled the ball towards the wing, and Ashley Young, who had just come on, chose to follow closely.
When Robben was parallel to the edge of the penalty area, he suddenly cut inside!
"Robben once again used his invincible trick! Will Bayern score again this time?"
"Cut inside! Shoot...the ball was poked out! Robben's kick was missed!"
"When Robben was cutting in, Ashley Young moved to the left one step ahead. He decisively extended his foot and poked the ball. The ball fell at the feet of Kante next to him!"
"Robben's kick was in the air and he almost fell to the ground! This time Ashley Young made a contribution!"
Robben is in a very unhappy mood! It was an excellent scoring opportunity, but it was ruined by Ashley Young!
Two minutes later, Bayern's attack started again from Robben's side. Robben continued to move forward with the ball. This time he was preparing to pass Ashley Young, and then cut into the penalty area from near the baseline to look for passing opportunities.
But as soon as Robben increased his speed, Ashley Young's right foot became entangled with Robben's left foot. They both fell to the ground and the ball was cleared by Koulibaly again!
Ashley Young's two consecutive successful defenses resolved the crisis in Manchester United's penalty area! This veteran is like building a new wall in front of Manchester United's penalty area, blocking Robben and Bayern's offense from Manchester United's penalty area!
