Chapter 704 Another Massacre?

Many people find it strange, why is the Premier League the most globalized operation of the four major leagues?

The advantage of English is one aspect, the influx of foreign capital is one aspect, and the game style is also good-looking.

But in fact, a very important point is that the Premier League really attaches great importance to it, and even painstakingly manages overseas markets.

As the two best leagues in European football today, La Liga also attaches great importance to it. However, when La Liga arranges their signature event, the Century Derby, they basically cater to local fans, so they are arranged on local nights.

In this way, when it comes to Asia, it is basically three or four o'clock in the morning. Who has that time?

But the Premier League is different.

Christmas off?

It's okay, I'll make the arrangements. Not only will the competition continue as usual, but I also know that you are suspended, so I specially arrange a few more games, so that everyone can enjoy watching and have fun.

What about major events?

No problem, I schedule it all for midday, which is probably the best time to get the whole world in sync.

As for our team and players being affected, we have to solve this ourselves.

Fans are God!

Therefore, the Manchester Derby, the most watched game in the Premier League this season, was scheduled at noon.

...

Before the game, there was something wrong with Manchester City.

Robben is injured, Rakitic is suspended and Lichtsteiner is also injured in defense.

Many people are worried, will Manchester City be affected by this?

Moreover, three days after playing Manchester United, Manchester City will go to Ligue 1 Lyon.

Before the game, many media believed that Gao Shen might change his tactics in this game, and it was an away game, so he might play more conservatively.

After all, Manchester United's current state is also quite good.

But Gao Shen made a decisive change.

Goalkeeper: Neuer.

Defender: Leighton Baines, David Luiz, Kompany and Zabaleta.

Midfield: Fernandinho and Yaya Toure at the back, ahead of Sturridge, Hazard and Robinho.

Forward: Van Persie.

Before the critical derby, from four three three to four two three one, the profound tactical courage can be seen.

Even Sky TV commentator Andy Gray, who was in charge of the commentary, said that the advanced tactics are really changeable and elusive.

"In the past two seasons at Manchester City, he has really tried many different tactics, from the four-four-two diamond position, to the commonly used four-three-three, and then to four-two-three-one, and he has played four-four-two before. Standing with double midfielders, and occasionally kicking four-two-four..."

"It has to be said that we have seen that Gao Shen has reserved quite a lot of ammunition in Manchester City's tactical arsenal. He can arrange different tactics according to different opponents and different player lineups."

"And tonight, he adopted the four-two-three-one again. We can see that Manchester United still adopts the four-three-three formation that they are best at, but Ferguson has Fletcher, Sneijder and Anderson in the midfield. Combination, Carrick was on the bench."

"This is also a kind of rotation. Ferguson also has to prepare for the Champions League knockout."

"Both of them are top coaches in the world, and their tactical attainments are excellent. Now let's see how the two teams will play after the start."

...

Gao Shen didn't attack in the opening game, but Manchester United played more aggressively.

It is said to be four two three one, but in fact Sturridge and Robinho on the two flanks both retreated relatively far back.

But Hazard and Van Persie are even higher, at first glance, there is still a bit of a 4411 taste.

This is mainly taking into account the impact and threat of Manchester United's wings, Nani and Valencia on the wing.

At Old Trafford, this concern still exists.

As the game started, Manchester United took the initiative to attack, a little aggressive, and Manchester City played more steadily.

Both Sturridge and Robinho actively retreated to protect the full-backs, which played a certain role in curbing Manchester United's wing attack, but they were hit by two corner kicks in less than three minutes.

This also proves once again that Gao Shen's steady strategy at the beginning is correct.

If you really want to fight against Manchester United, you may not be able to get benefits.

But just after Manchester United's two corner kicks, Manchester City seized the opportunity and launched an attack from the right.

In the back-and-forth back and forth in the midfield, he saw the opportunity. David Luiz sent a long diagonal pass and gave the ball directly to the space behind Evra. Robinho quickly advanced and was caught. Back on defense Vidic blocked out of bounds.

Manchester City conceded a throw-in to the right of the box.

Before Manchester United's defense could react, Robinho made a quick throw-in and threw the ball to Eden Hazard who ran over to meet him.

The Belgian didn't stop the ball and passed it back to Zabaleta.

Pressed by Nani, Zabaleta passes the ball to Yaya Toure.

Yaya Toure made another pass to Eden Hazard, who had a touch and passed the ball to Robinho.

But at this time, the right side of Manchester United's entire penalty area was already full of defensive players, and Evra and others had already settled down.

Robinho took the ball, was double-teamed by Evra and Anderson, tried to rush into the penalty area, and passed the ball to Eden Hazard.

Hazard stopped the ball and turned to the bottom line, scaring Vidic, Anderson and Evra to double-team him.

But Hazard was bold, he just dribbled the ball and sent a diagonal pass, from the gap between Vidic and Anderson, to the foot of Van Persie in the penalty area.

At this time, Robinho, who was still outside the penalty area just now, had rushed into the penalty area from behind the three defensive players on the left of Manchester United.

Brazilian players' off-ball running has always been very good, and their sense of smell is very keen.

Ferdinand was between Van Persie and the goal, and Sneijder returned to the penalty area in time. When Van Persie received the ball, he ran to the right of the Dutchman, trying to cut him off from his teammates outside.

Unexpectedly, facing Hazard's pass, Van Persie directly sent the ball with his left foot and sent the ball to the outer right corner of the small penalty area.

I saw that Robinho, who rushed into the penalty area, caught up with Van Persie's wonderful pass. Facing the goalkeeper Van der Sar, he stopped the ball with his right foot, and after a fake move with his left foot to push the ball into the far corner, he shot the ball again. Buckle to the bottom line, and then volley with his right foot from a close corner.

The unlucky Van der Sar was dizzy by Robinho's nimble and skillful movements. By the time he realized the danger and fell to the ground to save the ball, the ball had already entered the goal.

One to zero!

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"Just over three minutes into the game, Manchester City took the lead in scoring!"

"It was really a wonderful teamwork!"

"Manchester United's defense is already quite tightly organized, but Manchester City insisted on relying on the personal ability and technical skills of the players, as well as their skillful passing and receiving cooperation, in the narrow area on the right, they broke through Manchester United's iron wall."

"This is a contest of spear and shield!"

"Manchester City played a very delicate teamwork, which is really brilliant!"

The live camera repeated the entire process of cooperation and scoring again and again, and Gao Shen was so excited that he jumped up and cheered with his fists in the stadium.

...

After conceding a goal first, Manchester United's bloodiness was completely stimulated.

Amidst the cheers and encouragement of the fans, the Red Devils launched a fierce attack on Manchester City. Nani on the left and Valencia on the right were extremely active.

From Manchester City's goal to the tenth minute, Manchester United created four corner kicks. It is self-evident how powerful the offense was, but the corner kicks failed to create a threat.

This is also related to the lack of enough corner kick attackers in the Manchester United team.

The continuous attack led to the emptiness of the defense.

In the twelfth minute, in an attack by Manchester United, after Nani's long-range shot went directly high, Neuer quickly sent a goal kick.

But was pushed back to the midfield by Vidic, and the two sides started a fight.

After receiving a pass from Fernandinho, Gareth Bale tried to dribble along the left rib, but was tripped by Fletcher just past the halfway line, and the referee did not blow his whistle.

After Bell struggled to get up, he caught up again, got the ball before O'Shea, and passed it to Hazard.

Hazard was accelerating forward, caught up with Gareth Bale's pass in the gap, faced Ferdinand, first made a fake move, after deceiving Ferdinand, suddenly smashed the ball to the right, and when Ferdinand reacted Before, earning a gap, he quickly sent a straight pass with his right foot.

The football follows a straight line from Manchester City's left rib to the left side of Manchester United's penalty area.

Van Persie was at the top of the arc, first a smoke bomb that retreated to respond, confused Vidic, and after seeing Hazard's movement, the whole person also made a sudden stop, turned and rushed to the left side of the penalty area.

Vidic reacted quickly enough, and immediately stopped and turned to keep up, trying to entangle Van Persie, but he was still a little behind.

It's often just a little bit worse when a master fights.

Van Persie caught up to Hazard's pass in the penalty area, didn't even try to stop the ball, and went straight to fire a powerful shot to the right of the goal.

Van der Sar stood on the left, trying to seal the near corner, leaving the far corner for Vidic to catch up.

In theory, if Van Persie stopped the ball, the defense would have been successful.

But Van Persie didn't need to stop the ball at all, he swung his left foot and hit it, and the ball was drawn into the right side of Manchester United's goal by him.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"Two to zero!"

"Manchester City!!!"

"Twelve minutes, another Manchester City goal!"

"My God, is it going to be another massacre tonight?"

"I believe all fans have not forgotten the massacre at Old Trafford last season."

"Could it be that tonight, Manchester City will come again?"

Van Persie was so excited that he rushed out of the court, ran all the way, and finally slid and knelt under the stands.

This season, after joining Manchester City, he has played the best form of his career, and also the most beautiful statistics.

More importantly, Manchester City's coaches and team doctors are still professional. He has not been absent due to injury so far.

And as long as he is not injured, as long as he is allowed to fight continuously for a long time, his condition will get better and better!

Thinking of this, Van Persie, after celebrating the goal with his teammates, turned around and walked back, he ran to the coach of the visiting team, high-fived and hugged the coach.

He is very grateful to Gao Shen!

Because without Gao Shen's persuasion, he would not come to Manchester City; without Gao Shen's trust in him, he would not have played such a wonderful performance.

If you want him to choose the most respected head coach, the first one must be Wenger, there is no doubt about it.

Further down, that is the depth!
