Chapter 816 Ten Consecutive Victories

During the 15 minutes of the halftime break, both Manchester United and Tottenham made adjustments to their starting lineups.

After taking a two-goal lead, Ferguson replaced Giggs with Park Ji-sung to strengthen the defense while also beginning to prepare for the Champions League game in midweek.

Valencia is reimbursed for the season. Giggs is old and has limited physical fitness, so he must use it sparingly. In addition, Manchester United and Tottenham have no hatred, so there is no need to fight to the death.

Tottenham were already two goals behind and had no way out. They could only strengthen their attack. Redknapp replaced Janus and brought on Crouch, changing the formation to 442, using two forwards, one high and one fast. To deal with Manchester United's defense.

After the start of the second half, Tottenham continued to attack from the wing.

With Crouch in front, Tottenham's offensive threat from the wing is greater than in the first half.

Although Crouch is very thin, he is 2.01 meters tall after all. Even if he is a telegraph pole, if he stands there, a cross from the wing may hit his head. Ferdinand and Vidic dare not ignore it. Guard against him.

Manchester United's attention is on Crouch, and opportunities arise for Robbie Keane and Van der Vaart.

Just at the beginning of the second half, Bell made a cross from the wing, and Van der Vaart kicked the ball directly from the corner of the penalty area. The ball hit the side net, scaring the Manchester United fans to death.

In the 50th minute, Van der Vaart passed the ball directly behind Manchester United full-back Rafael. Bell forcibly overtook Rafael from the outside and saved the ball when it almost went out of the baseline. After crossing into the penalty area, Bell almost There was no angle to shoot, and the ball slid past the goal and hit Ferdinand's leg, almost causing an own goal.

The ball went out of the baseline. Tottenham midfielder Van der Vaart took a corner kick. Tottenham center back Kaboul headed the ball from 12 yards in the middle. Unfortunately, the ball missed the goal post.

In just five minutes of the second half, Tottenham made three threatening attacks, and each time they were lucky, they might have scored.

Ferguson felt the huge threat from Bell and Lennon's attack on the wing. He immediately made arrangements for the players to defend the defender Rafael on Bell's side to reduce the forward penetration and not give Bell room to attack. Lennon's path allowed E. Fola boldly pushed forward and used his strength to suppress Lennon, preventing him from taking advantage of his speed and flexibility.

At the same time, let Fletcher keep an eye on Van der Vaart and not give him the opportunity to easily shoot and play.

Because Gao Xiaodong is responsible for organizing and dispatching counterattacks, he cannot defend as full-time as Fletcher. He is more in front of the opponent's two forwards and midfielder, using his frequent running to cut off Tottenham's midfielders and forwards. contact.

Ferguson's adaptability is very strong, and the execution ability of the Manchester United players is in place. Soon, the attacks from the wing by Bell and Lennon were contained. Tottenham's offense, which had just gained momentum, fell into the quagmire again, and could only frequently hang forward. In the penalty area, let Crouch compete with Ferdinand and Vidic for a header.

Although Crouch is very tall, he is very good at his feet, and his heading ability is very poor. He cannot compete with Ferdinand or Vidic for headers, let alone Ferdinand and Vidic. For years, Tottenham's long balls were of little use to Crouch.

If you change to a Premier League team other than Arsenal, they will be strangled on both sides. The long pass is useless, and the offense is basically useless. But Tottenham is different. Not only do they have good attackers on the wings, but they also have Modry in the middle. Technical and creative players like Qi and Van der Vaart. Bell and Lennon attract defenses from the wings and open up space, which makes it much easier for the offensive players in the center.

In the 65th minute of the game, Van der Vaart suddenly pulled to the left to attack.

At this time, Nani and Rafael on the right side of Manchester United were paying attention to Bale. Van der Vaart suddenly came to the wing. Modric passed the ball. Van der Vaart almost rushed to the bottom line without any defense, and hit an inverted triangle again. Played back to the corner of the penalty area.

At this time, Modric didn't know when he got rid of the defensive player and suddenly appeared on the edge of the penalty area to get the ball.

Modric took the ball and moved quickly laterally. Fletcher hurried over to intercept. Modric passed the ball past Fletcher and continued to dribble laterally.

The two central defenders Vidic and Ferdinand also had to come out to block Modric from taking long shots.

Modric continued dribbling in the middle of the penalty area and finally found a good opportunity to shoot. Modric made a sudden kick while traveling and the ball flew straight to the left side of the goal.

Modric's cross-cut shot is almost his "signature dish". Van der Sar was already on guard. He leaped forward and saved the ball from the baseline with one palm.

Tottenham got a corner kick. Modric and Van der Vaart took a tactical corner kick. When Manchester United's marking in the penalty area was chaotic and they couldn't find the person they were guarding, Modric passed the ball to the penalty area and looked for someone in the Tottenham penalty area. Lighthouse "Crouch."

This time Crouch finally made a difference. He used his height advantage to get the header before Vidic. The ball flew to the front of the penalty area. Robbie Keane didn't know when he came from the penalty area to the front of the penalty area. He didn't adjust to meet the goal. The ball was shot, but the ball was hit too straight and was confiscated by goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar.

Van der Sar again threw the ball to Gao Xiaodong to launch a quick counterattack.

Scholes was away, and everyone knew that Gao Xiaodong was the key for Manchester United to switch from defense to offense. Van der Vaart was closer to Gao Xiaodong. When he saw Gao Xiaodong getting the ball, he tackled Gao Xiaodong from behind.

This action is typical of people passing the ball but not passing the ball, but Gao Xiaodong couldn't dodge. If he hid, the chance of a quick counterattack would be gone. Gao Xiaodong didn't dodge, but stopped the ball, dialed the ball, and stopped the ball. Toward oneself.

At this time, Van der Vaart's tackle also arrived, hitting Gao Xiaodong's ankle.

Gao Xiaodong was shoveled to the ground. If there was not a chance to fight back, Gao Xiaodong would lie on the ground and pretend to be dead. But now, after Gao Xiaodong fell down, he immediately put his hands on the ground, got up again, and glanced ahead. , a long overhead pass hit the space behind Tottenham's defense.

Rooney and Berbatov started running when Gao Xiaodong received the ball from Van der Sar. When Gao Xiaodong was tackled, Berbatov stopped, while Rooney was still running forward with his head down. , until he caught up with Berbatov and saw that Berbatov was not moving, Rooney stopped and looked back at Gao Xiaodong.

At this time, Gao Xiaodong got up again and made a long pass.

Rooney has a good relationship with Gao Xiaodong and is familiar with Gao Xiaodong's footwork. Seeing Gao Xiaodong's passing movement, Rooney said nothing and rushed behind the defender quickly.

Poor Berbatov's position was originally in front of Rooney, but at this stop, he fell behind Rooney.

Manchester United's center back Gallas saw that the situation was critical. He quickly came over to block Rooney and let his goalkeeper come over to clear the ball.

However, Galas did not form a tacit understanding with the goalkeeper, and goalkeeper Gomez did not make a save.

Rooney didn't care about Gallas's position. He squeezed past Galas. The two men bumped shoulders and stretched out their hands to pull each other, trying to slow down the opponent.

Rooney was stronger and faster. He knocked over Gallas, grabbed the ball and went straight into the penalty area. Facing Tottenham goalkeeper Gomez, Rooney pushed the arch of his foot and sent the ball into the Tottenham goal. .

3:0

Rooney was so excited after scoring the goal that he ran towards Gao Xiaodong with open arms and jumped on Gao Xiaodong.

"Wow! Got in!"

"Beautiful pass! Beautiful cum!"

"Two fat people come together!"

"Crying! The two fat guys finally have a successful cooperation!"

…

The Manchester United fans in the stands were overjoyed. Since Gao Xiaodong's transfer, Rooney has been in poor form and has been having bad things off the field. The two have not had many opportunities to cooperate. Gao Xiaodong has not provided many assists to Rooney, which makes Manchester United fans very happy. It is a pity that they originally had high expectations for the cooperation between Rooney and Gao Xiaodong, but now, the successful cooperation between Gao Xiaodong and Rooney has made Manchester United fans full of confidence.

Rooney's goal sealed the victory. Although Redknapp later replaced Pavlyuchenko and Palacios to strengthen the attack, he was ultimately unable to make a comeback. The embarrassing record of not defeating Manchester United in the away game in 21 years was embarrassing. Does not extend to 22 years.

After Manchester United won this battle, it also tied the best start in their team's history of 10 consecutive wins. Their record below is to catch up with Tottenham's 11-game winning streak that year.
