Chapter 984: Crazy Attack for Small Victory

Although Manchester United controlled the situation on the field, with a ball possession rate as high as 80%, they had very few threatening shots. What was even worse was that they finally had a threatening shot, but it was saved by the goalkeeper. out.

The most dangerous situation is to gain the upper hand but not score. The more the opponent defends, the more confident he becomes. However, if the attacking side is impatient, it is easy to be counterattacked.

Everton head coach Moyes looked very relaxed. For him, it doesn’t matter whether he wins or loses in this game. If he wins, Everton will take another step forward on the road to entering the European war, which is good; if he loses, he will not play in the Europa League. The cup is nothing, the prize money is not much, there are many games, and maybe he will be dragged down the league to avoid relegation, so Moyes doesn't care.

And in terms of personal relationship, Moyes has a very good relationship with Ferguson. Ferguson often told him that he would let Moyes become the coach of Manchester United after he retires.

There is too much pressure from public opinion now, and Moyes has to play this game with all his strength.

Ferguson was watching anxiously from the sidelines. In the past month, Manchester United had key matches in the Champions League and FA Cup. Ferguson hoped to get out of the league early rather than get stuck in the third-line battle.

If you want to get out early, you must not lose any three points against a weak team like Everton, otherwise it will be difficult to handle later.

But now Everton is playing intensive defense, which makes Ferguson feel like a tiger has no place to eat.

Breaking through dense defense is a worldwide problem. Even if you have a strong high forward and a long-range shooter, it may not be effective. If not, it just depends on luck.

In the 70th minute, Ferguson made another substitution adjustment. Berbatov came on, replaced Evans, and continued to strengthen the attack.

Although Berbatov is not very good at heading the ball, his height is there, and Berbatov's skills are very good, and he does the ball well in the crowd.

When Ferguson replaced him, he hoped that Berbatov and Rooney would be the fulcrum of the penalty area and provide the ball for the rest of Manchester United.

But the effect after Berbatov came on the court was not good, because Berbatov was not good at fighting with defenders, and the referee Jones was a little biased towards the visiting team, or he didn't like Manchester United. When he whistled, His standards are very loose. When Berbatov gets the ball inside and outside the penalty area, he is often pushed, kicked, and squeezed by his opponents. Some of them are fouls and some are not, but Jones does not call them fouls.

The referee's standards are loose, and Berbatov's skills and ball-making ability cannot be displayed. Under double-teaming and marking, Berbatov's role is not as good as that of young Tank Clooney.

Rooney's technique is a little rough, but he is strong and opponents can't easily knock him down, so Rooney can give the ball to his teammates.

In the 72nd minute of the game, Rooney received the ball with his back, and when he was pulled by his opponent and lost his center of gravity, he poked the ball out. Gao Xiaodong quickly got rid of the marking player and followed up with a long shot.

Gao Xiaodong has bought so many shooting skills. Without interference, long-range shots are very reliable. His long-range shot flew to the left side of the goal with good speed and angle.

However, goalkeeper Howard's condition was really brought out today. Gao Xiaodong's long shot was knocked out of the penalty area by his fists.

At this moment, many Manchester United people can see that today Everton is rushing for a draw, and counterattacks are just containment. If Manchester United wants to win, they must constantly attack Everton's penalty area and exchange the number of attacks for success rate.

Then Manchester United's two full-backs Nani and Valencia desperately crossed into the penalty area and crossed to the front of the penalty area, allowing their teammates to compete for headers and long shots.

With defenders standing inside and outside the opponent's penalty area, such mindless crosses were horrifyingly inefficient. They only saw crosses being pushed out and shots being blocked. Goalkeeper Howard didn't even make many saves. Opportunity.

The Manchester United fans in the stands were depressed, anxious and angry. They kept applauding and shouting for the players to score one, but the ball always failed to fly into the goal.

Although Manchester United's style of play is extremely inefficient, it puts a lot of pressure on Everton.

The ball is constantly lobbed into the penalty area and shot from long range. Once unlucky and refracted, Everton will be in misery.

Eighty minutes into the game, Moyes' heart couldn't stand it anymore, so he made substitution adjustments. Gueye replaced Coleman, and Cahill replaced Villaredinov to strengthen the counterattack. Take some pressure off your own defense.

Ferguson's substitutions were of no use, and Moyes's substitutions were also ineffective. Under Manchester United's crazy pressure, Everton's three lines were out of touch, and Cahill and Beckford alone were of no use.

At the 85th minute of the game, the reporter showed a close-up of Gao Xiaodong, and the fans also chanted Gao Xiaodong's name, giving him all their goal expectations, hoping that he could turn the tide and kill the wretched Everton.

Of course Gao Xiaodong also wanted to score. He had already tried seven or eight shots in the second half and almost turned into a goal scorer. Everton fans also kept booing Gao Xiaodong, but Gao Xiaodong did not give up. He had many shooting methods and was not afraid. Can't find a way to break the door.

In the 86th minute, Scholes gave up the organization and shot hard in front of the penalty area, but the ball missed the goal post.

In the 87th minute, Manchester United's cross was intercepted, Osman passed the ball, Cahill came in from behind, took the ball to the penalty area and shot hard.

Ferdinand struggled to intercept, but the ball hit his sneakers and deflected. Fortunately, Van der Sar flew to block it, and the ball missed the left post.

In the 89th minute, Rooney passed the ball to the right and Valencia passed in. Gao Xiaodong forced his way into the penalty area and shot from the front, but the ball hit the near corner post and bounced off.

The faces of Manchester United fans showed a look of despair. They felt that this game might be difficult to win. Everton's defense was perfect and flexible. No matter how hard Manchester United tried, they could not completely tear apart Everton's defense.

The players of Manchester United were also a little frustrated. They tried every means, but the ball just didn't fly into the goal. This made the players of Manchester United very helpless.

Gao Xiaodong was also disappointed. Although he has the superstar system, which can be called a bug on the court, Gao Xiaodong does not want to use the special points of the superstar system. There are many strong opponents behind him. Manchester United is 8 points ahead of the second place. This game is another It’s not a win-win situation, Gao Xiaodong still hopes to continue to score goals through cooperation.

In the 90th minute of the game, Gao Xiaodong received a pass from Valencia, made a shooting motion, passed Cahill, and drove the ball towards the penalty area.

Gueye came to intercept, Gao Xiaodong quickly changed direction and passed Gueye, and continued to break into the penalty area.

Everton players saw Gao Xiaodong pass two teammates, and four players pounced on the ball together, trapping Gao Xiaodong in the middle.

Even though Gao Xiaodong is burying his head and breaking into the penalty area, he actually doesn't think he can break through all the defensive players and score goals. He is not Messi, and breaking through is not what he is best at.

Gao Xiaodong's purpose is to press Everton's defense and force the opponents into the penalty area.

When his opponents came to attack him, Gao Xiaodong gave up his progress, stepped over the ball with his supporting foot, knocked back, and knocked the ball back to the midfield.

Gao Xiaodong didn't look at anyone, but he knew that Scholes' position was there, and he believed that Scholes would handle the ball well.

Scholes had a very good view of the overall situation. Gao Xiaodong passed the ball over, and he immediately distributed the ball to the side and passed it to Valencia.

Valencia caught up with the ball and found that Gao Xiaodong broke out of the encirclement and reached the forward point. Valencia did not hesitate to find Gao Xiaodong in the forward point.

Gao Xiaodong's header went backwards and the ball flew towards the far post.

This wave of Manchester United's offense was very exciting. Gao Xiaodong suddenly pushed Everton's defense into the penalty area, and then passed back. Scholes hit the ball to the wing. Gao Xiaodong then cruised to the front point, attracting the ball again. defense.

However, Gao Xiaodong's movement this time was still not for shooting. He changed the direction of attack again after heading the ball.

Manchester United's several transfers completely stunned the Everton players. When the ball flew near the far post, Hernandez, who had inserted himself into this position, was unmarked 7 meters away from the goal. No one is following.

Goalkeeper Howard was attracted by Gao Xiaodong to the near post. Hernandez easily headed the ball into the goal from a small angle.

1:0

Manchester United used a beautiful cooperation, Gao Xiaodong assisted Hernandez to break the deadlock.

Hernandez was extremely excited after the goal. It was basically a winning goal. He lifted up his jersey, covered his head, and ran towards the stands and slid close to the ground.

The other players of Manchester United also hugged each other excitedly. They had no idea before the game that the game would be so difficult. So when Hernandez scored, everyone was as excited as winning the league championship.

Everton head coach Moyes hugged his head. He never expected that the simple and crude Manchester United could play such delicate tactics. You know, this is stoppage time. Even Arsenal and Barcelona are probably not in the mood to penetrate. , but Manchester United penetrated, which really made Moyes feel like he had fucked a dog.

Ferguson was overjoyed. He clenched his fists and rushed out, waving several times in the air.

But the old guy is an old man after all. After being overjoyed, he immediately calmed down. Remembering that Everton scored two goals in stoppage time in the first round, Ferguson immediately sent Vidic on and replaced Hernandez. Call the players over and ask them to strengthen their defense.

Ferguson's calmness killed the upset, and then in three minutes of stoppage time, Everton launched a wild attack, but Manchester United calmly used possession and fouls to defuse Everton's counterattack, and finally defeated Everton 1:0 at home. Suddenly, we got the match point for the league championship. nt
