Chapter 703, Leading the Snake Out of the Hole
"Shinji Okazaki made a breakthrough from the wing, and he crossed directly! Vardy shot! The ball went wide of the goal!"
"Asensio tried a long shot! The ball was blocked by Van Dijk!"
Since the two teams each scored a goal, Manchester United has gradually recovered its defense, and Leicester City's offense has intensified, and it seems that they can blast Manchester United's goal at any time.
At this time, the fans of the home team in the stands were a little anxious, and the fat Rodney clapped his hands anxiously: "If you are so passive, we should lose the ball!"
Cook glared at him: "You crow's mouth! The team has encountered difficulties, let's cheer for the team!"
There were bursts of cheers and cheers erupting from the stands, and Jin Taige on the sidelines could hear them.
Ferran was a little anxious: "Tiger, is it really okay to be beaten like this?"
Jin Taige smiled calmly: "Don't worry, there is absolutely no problem. Although they got a lot of opportunities in a row, they didn't have an absolute chance to score at all. For Leicester City, quick counterattack is their specialty, and positional warfare It's not what they're good at."
Scholes nodded: "That's right. Although Leicester City's offense looks fierce, it doesn't pose much threat to us, and the loopholes in the defense are getting bigger and bigger."
Kintag looked at Scholes approvingly: "You are right, our next goal is not far away."
Although Manchester United's coaching bench was very calm, Ranieri on the coaching bench of the visiting team was a little anxious. He has a clear view of the situation on the field. Although his team is playing against Manchester United, there is no good chance to score at all.
Ranieri walked to the sidelines and yelled at the players on the field, telling the players to press forward boldly and strive for goals.
Although he knows that this may put a lot of pressure on the team's defense, but now he has no choice but to give it a go and try to score.
The first half continued like this until the 37th minute.
In a breakthrough with the ball by Vardy, he was shoveled to the ground by Kanter very simply and broke the ball.
Vardy sat on the ground and signaled to the referee that Kanter had fouled just now, but the referee didn't say anything at all. He signaled Vardy to stand up and the game continued.
At this time, Kanter did not let the ball stay under his feet too much, and directly passed the ball to Valencia on the right. Valencia dribbled the ball forward quickly and crossed the midfield line!
"Leicester City's attack was interrupted! Kante succeeded in stealing the ball, and he passed the ball to Valencia!"
"Valencia cross the halfway line! Keep going!"
"Leicester City left-back Fox pressed up, Valencia passed the ball to De Bruyne on the left, then bypassed Fox and continued to run forward! Fox turned and chased him to prevent him from scoring. Two over one!"
"De Bruyne didn't pass the ball, he took the ball and walked into the penalty area!"
"Leicester City's central defense is empty! Central defender Morgan is pressing up!"
"De Bruyne passed the ball to Lampard next to him! Then continue to run into the penalty area!"
"Morgan followed De Bruyne and didn't let him get the ball!"
"But Lampard didn't pass the ball, he kicked and shot! The ball went in!!!"
"Lampard took a sharp kick from the top of the penalty area! The ball went straight and fast into the upper right corner of the goal!"
"Schumeichel stretched his body as hard as he could, but still missed the ball!"
"This ball is so beautiful! Valencia pretended to play one with De Bruyne to attract the opponent's defender; De Bruyne pretended to play one with Lampard to attract Morgan; in the end Lampard With a decisive kick, the ball blasted straight into the goal!"
"At the end of the first half, Manchester United led the score! 2 to 1!"
"The current situation on the field is very favorable to Manchester United. If they can maintain this score to end the game, then they will become the Premier League champions of this season one game ahead of schedule!"
Manchester United's goal made the entire Old Trafford stadium boil again! The fans chanted the names of Manchester United players loudly,
And Jin Taige is the object of their loud praise!
Ranieri slammed the seat hard, he was very disappointed in this loss!
At this time, Jin Taige was very calm. He came to the sidelines, called several players who had just finished celebrating, and reminded them loudly: "Don't be careless, continue to defend firmly, and adhere to the strategy of defensive counterattack! Then lead the snake out of the hole and let Lai Press out of Sturt City!"
The first half of the game ended quickly, and the two teams returned to the locker room with their own different moods.
In the locker room of the visiting team, the calm old coach Ranieri still looked very calm, but his heart was extremely anxious. In the current situation, Leicester City is at a disadvantage, not only behind the score, but also the situation on the field is very unfavorable.
Ranieri has some regrets: If after scoring a goal in the opening stage, he immediately shrinks the defense and plays the defensive counterattack he is familiar with, this may pose a greater threat to Manchester United. But now, Manchester United has taken the lead. They actually don't care whether the scene is good at home and are determined to defend. This makes Leicester City very uncomfortable. The reason for the reduction in the number of players again caused an accidental loss of the ball.
This makes Leicester City very passive.
But there is no way, no matter how many difficulties there are, they can only attack in this game.
In the locker room of the home team, Jin Taige had a very serious expression. When he saw the players walking into the locker room, their expressions were very relaxed. It seemed that the game was sure to win.
This is what Jin Taige is most worried about.
The players all entered the locker room, Jin Taige blackened his face: "Guys, I am a little disappointed with you in this game. Although you are leading 2 to 1 now, it seems that you have landed early, but you really think this game Is the game over?"
"We are now using a defensive counterattack tactic. Although we are leading temporarily, the goal may be scored by the opponent at any time! If you start to relax now, don't you want the Premier League championship?"
Seeing Jin Taige's serious expression, the relaxed expression on the players' faces gradually faded, and their expressions became serious.
Looking at everyone's appearance, Jin Taige nodded: "Guys, I know that you are working hard, fighting on multiple fronts, and it is the final stage, which consumes a lot of physical and mental energy, but I hope you can survive these 45 minutes ! Only if we win this game successfully, can we win the Premier League title ahead of schedule and have more time to breathe and adjust!"
"Come on, guys! Win Leicester City and win the Premier League!"
