Chapter 259, You Then I Retreat

In response to the tactical change of Manchester City's double defensive midfielders, Jin Taige asked his two defensive midfielders to push forward to prevent them both. After a series of fights, Yaya Toure could not get the slightest advantage in front of Kanter, so he passed the ball to Fernandinho who was not far away.

But before Fernandinho received the ball, the ball was cut off.

This person is Nainggolan.

Nainggolan has been staring at the fight between Kanter and Yaya Toure. He guessed that Yaya Toure is likely to pass the ball, so Nainggolan has been staring at the ball, waiting for the kick , That's why he was able to predict so accurately and steal the ball in advance.

In the past few minutes, Nainggolan has been wandering around Fernandinho.

Regarding Fernandinho's deeds, Nainggolan knows it very well, not only because he is Manchester City's main midfielder, but because of his positional relationship.

But in Serie A, some people once commented on Nainggolan in this way. He is also a b2b player with excellent offense and defense, a large coverage area, and excellent passing and shooting. Some people also commented that he will become a future international football player. The b2b first person.

Two players with the same technical characteristics meet in the League Cup final, who will be the better one?

Nainggolan wants to tell everyone: I am the number one b2b player in the Premier League!

After Nainggolan's interception just now, he collided with Fernandinho who was advancing. Although Fernandinho's physical fitness is also good, he is still much weaker than the beast-like Nainggolan. Nainggolan knocked Fernandinho two or three meters away. Dinho almost didn't fall, and Nainggolan just took two steps back and regained his footing.

Nainggolan glanced at Fernandinho contemptuously, then ignored him, and strode forward directly, dribbling the ball towards Manchester City's half!

"Nainggolan steals the ball from Fernandinho and he dribbles towards City's goal! It's a great chance for Manchester United!"

"At this time, Manchester City's half is empty, except for the two central defenders in the penalty area, there is no one else!"

"Nainggolan 'approached' Manchester City's penalty area with the ball! At this time, Manchester United players were behind him, no one could respond to him, only Rooney was waiting for an opportunity in Manchester City's penalty area!"

"Demichelis and Kompany were very nervous. One of them kept a close eye on Rooney, and the other stepped forward to block Nainggolan's further advance."

"Fernandinho came up from behind and he shouldered Nainggolan! It was a foul!"

"Oh, Fernandinho lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground, while the violated Nainggolan did nothing! He just paused for a moment, then immediately adjusted his pace and continued forward! Nainggolan Really strong!"

"Kopany is marking Rooney, and Demichelis blocks Nainggolan, but he dare not step forward easily. If Nainggolan passes him, it will be a one-handed goal!"

"What will Nainggolan do?"

"Shoot directly from a long distance!"

"The ball hit the post!"

"Nainggolan's shot was full of violence. It reminded us of the former Brazilian heavy gunner Roberto Carlos for a moment! His shot hit the goal post hard and popped out of the baseline. Manchester City Goalkeeper Joe Hart didn't react at all!"

"Manchester City's two midfielders assisted and stepped forward, which put a lot of pressure on Manchester United's defense; and Manchester United's two midfielders immediately responded! Kante's defense is impenetrable, Nainggolan's The interception and shooting were very brave,

The two of them used their actual actions to declare to the world-we are the best midfielder combination in the Premier League! "

Seeing that Nainggolan's shot hit the goal post, Kintag held his head and sighed in pity; while Pellegrini at the side was very frightened, he stood up hurriedly and shouted Yaya ?Toure, let them pay attention to the defensive formation, don't press too high.

After a series of duels just now, Yaya Toure and Fernandinho finally did not dare to take it lightly. They did not expect that the combination of two small midfielders in the Manchester United formation could break out such a powerful combination. energy. The two of them didn't dare to press too high, and returned to the position behind the midfield.

After the two of them withdrew, Manchester City's offensive dropped a lot again, and Manchester United's defensive pressure in front of the goal became less and less.
