Chapter 886 A Fleeting Opportunity

Sina live broadcast room.

"Manchester United's current situation is not good. Dortmund's formation is compressed. Subotic and Hummels may be considered the best central defender combination in Europe at the moment."

Zhan Jun analyzed it carefully: "It is difficult for Klose to touch the ball in the penalty area. Almost all the crosses from the wing were cleared by Hummels and Subotic. Griezmann reversed into the penalty area several times and was also marked by Bender. It was so bad that Fletcher’s back-row insertion didn’t work either.”

"Peripheral shots... Januzaj missed two very good long-range shots, and Sun Wu... Dortmund is very wary of Sun Wu's long-range shots." Zhang Lu added: "The key is that now Dortmund With the iron barrel formation, Manchester United lacks contact points in the penalty area. If we continue like this...the defense may still concede the ball."

"Yes, Tuchel also knows very well that if the goal is conceded, Dortmund must score two more to eliminate Manchester United, so while defending, the Hornets will not give up the opportunity to counterattack. The speed of Aubameyang and Royce It's all scary... Oh, the camera shows Sun Wu, what is he discussing with Pochettino!" Zhan Jun said with a smile: "Now, Sun Wu is taking on the responsibility of assistant coach."

A minute later, Sun Wu took the initiative to kick the ball out of the boundary. Pochettino used up the last substitution and replaced Januzaj with Senegal winger Mane.

"You don't need to go to the wing to break through." Sun Wu quickly explained the tactics, "Go to the ribs, both ribs are fine. If you have the chance to get the ball, break into the penalty area. Without the ball, enter the penalty area to find the landing point. Flexible movement. point."

Mane blinked... It seemed different from what Pochettino and Jesus explained just now!

Sun Wu grinned, "Mane, you should have heard that sentence... listen to Best."

Pushing Mane forward, Sun Wu made a tactical gesture to Coleman behind him, leaving all the right wing to the Irish defender.

Manchester United's tactical adjustments have not yet seen results, but Dortmund organized a very threatening counterattack.

I don’t know whether it was accidental or intentional. Hummels suddenly made a clearance in the backcourt and sent a long pass to Coleman who was advancing forward. Aubameyang stopped the ball on his chest and accelerated the cut inside. This time it was Schneiderlin who came from behind. Knocking Meiyangyang over from the side.

The thirteenth yellow card.

"Shahin took this shot... passed the ball... Hummels... it was so dangerous!"

"It's only a little bit short, and Dortmund fans are holding their heads in regret." Adam Simpson also lamented, "Hummels is one of the best central defenders in Europe today. It is said that he may return to Bayern after the season. Munich.

"

In the 73rd minute, Mane finally got a chance. He received a diagonal ball from Sun Wu on the right rib, accelerated the ball with a speed, Mane squeezed Shaheen away, and then rushed under Hummels. Enter the small restricted area!

But it is a pity that Mane's cross pass was confiscated by Weidenfeller.

In the 75th minute, Mane changed sides and squeezed into the penalty area from between Durm and Subotic on the left rib, but Hummels' defense was very good, and the ball was finally destroyed by Hu Meier and went out of the baseline.

Damn it, Sun Wu secretly cursed, Hu Meier is really difficult to deal with at this time!

However, Mane brought obvious tactical changes after he came on the field. The most direct consequence is that Sun Wu is much more relaxed, because in addition to Klose, Mane and Griezmann frequently enter the penalty area, and Fletcher occasionally After the meeting, Bender and Shaheen had to keep returning to the penalty area to make up defense, and there was no time to take care of Sun Wu.

Although Tuchel replaced Kuba to pester Sun Wu, the effect was very average.

In the 78th minute, Luke Shaw tried to break through and pass from the left wing, but Durm stuck close to him. The two struggled in the corner flag area, and Luke Shaw barely protected the ball and passed it back.

Sun Wu made an accelerating movement and shook Kuba, then took the ball and cut inside, his eyes falling in the penalty area.

Mane on the right rib was about to move. Griezmann moved inside to attract Subotic's attention, and Bender had already moved inside the penalty area.

Fletcher was outside the penalty area, ready to rush into the penalty area at any time. Shaheen grabbed Fletcher's jersey with one hand, and the two pulled each other.

And Durm, who had just been entangled with Luke Shaw, was guarding the left corner of the penalty area and taking care of both sides.

Sun Wu had already seen all this clearly from the "God's perspective", but he still raised his head to observe... In fact, this action was the real fake action.

Unique, the only fake move in the world!

You can faintly hear Kuba's breathing behind you. This guy is very resilient.

Sun Wu waved his right foot, looking like he wanted to send a rub pass. Griezmann turned around and ran into the small penalty area. Hummels reflexively grabbed Klose's jersey.

It wasn't a fake move. Sun Wu's right foot hit the ball, but at the same time, his body twisted and his foot became crooked!

"Best's pass...no, it's a direct pass, a direct pass...Luke Shaw!"

Only then did Durm realize that he had missed Luke Shaw. He didn't pounce on him...it was too late. Instead, he stretched out his hand to signal that the opponent was offside.

But the whistle did not sound, and Luke Shaw immediately rubbed the ball into the penalty area.

The kick was not high, but neither Griezmann nor Subotic could touch him. Hummels, who was relieved and about to make a clearance, suddenly had a blur in front of his eyes!

A dark figure suddenly appeared in front of him!

He ducked down and risked being kicked!

He didn't exert any force, but just rubbed it slightly!

"Luke Xiao passed the ball...the goal was scored!" Zhan Jun shouted: "It's Mane, it's Mane!"

"Mane's header equalized the score. It was a crucial goal!"

"Hummels, who performed well throughout the game, failed to keep an eye on Mane at the last moment... Wait a minute, the Dortmund player signaled offside."

Mane rushed out of the penalty area and ran towards Sun Wu, but the latter looked at the referee calmly.

Sun Wu was very sure that this was not an offside kick. Luke Shaw was pushed down by Durm after returning the ball from the corner, but when Durm went to help defend Sun Wu, Luke Shaw quickly got up and ran back. .

Sun Wu saw clearly before sending this awkward-looking through ball.

The key is that Sun Wu cleverly got rid of Kuba at the first time, and Shaheen and Durm immediately made up for it from different directions. At this moment, Luke Shaw was undefended.

Other players may not be able to seize this fleeting opportunity, but Sun Wu can.

But the problem is, linesmen don’t have a “God’s perspective”…

The referee, who was surrounded by Dortmund players, ran to the linesman, asked carefully before blowing the whistle again, and pointed his arm towards the center circle.

"The goal is valid! The goal is valid!" Mortensen breathed a long sigh of relief. "Mane, who was brought by Best from the Austrian League, scored his most important goal of the season!"

This time, Sun Wu finally opened his arms and hugged the running Mane tightly. Unlike other traditional wingers, Mane has a strong ability to grab headers in the penalty area.

Looking at the header just now, Weidenfeller didn't expect it at all. The ball flew past his hands and into the far corner.

Nowadays, the popular wingers on the European continent basically follow the model of Messi and Ronaldo in the later period of Manchester United. They have strong breakthrough ability, can pass and shoot, such as Sanchez, Hazard, Robery, and Bale, but Madrid He is a bit like Cristiano Ronaldo in this aspect.

The Manchester United bench cheered loudly, and all the substitutes stood shoulder to shoulder on the sidelines.

On the other side, the Dortmund bench was gloomy, and Tuchel was preparing to replace substitute forward Ramos.

After the joy, Pochettino hesitated on the sidelines. Should he continue to attack or defend?

If you continue to attack, you may be forced into overtime by the opponent, but you may also score another goal to completely kill the game.

The defense may have a close call, or it may be dragged into overtime by the opponent.

However, Dortmund has no choice here. If they don't attack, they can only wait for death.

Seeing that Pochettino didn't say anything, Sun Wu immediately took over the command. He clapped his hands and said loudly: "Guys, keep going, score another goal!"
