Chapter 963 Nemesis

There are too many factors that affect the victory of a game, such as player status, stadium atmosphere, referee's tendency to make penalties, etc., but the most critical points are the head coach's tactical deployment and the players' execution on the field.

Specific to this game, judging from the first half, the pre-match arrangements of the head coaches of both sides were half-matched, and the execution ability of the players was slightly higher in Manchester City.

Judging from the second half, Sun Wu's on-the-spot adjustments were obviously superior. Of course, this was not because Sun Wu had better tactical ability, but because he made a change of formation that surprised Guardiola.

Although Guardiola also followed suit, Sun Wu, the captain and head coach on the field, was not surprised and did not think Manchester City could come back.

Just after Manchester City almost equalized the score with two consecutive hits, Sun Wu directed Manchester United to retreat sharply to defend. Manchester City was allowed to control the ball in the area 40 meters away, and they tightly defended in the area 30 to 30 meters, and even more in the penalty area. It's watertight.

Not to mention Pavard and Luke Shaw on the wings, Griezmann and Bernardo Silva also came back to assist in defense, leaving Falcao alone to harass in front.

Kanter remained stationary in the defensive midfield position, and Sun Wu retreated to the two ribs of the penalty area and swept horizontally. This made Vidal and Fernandinho's attempts to receive shots from outside the penalty area come to naught.

In the 71st minute, Vidal and David Silva's two consecutive long-range shots were blocked by Kanter and Sun Wu. Baynes received the pass and was cleared by Van Dijk's header.

In the 74th minute, Sterling broke through with the ball from the left rib. He successfully forced a breakthrough between Pavard and Sun Wu, but then Alderweireld's precise tackle made the little man fall to the ground and howl.

"Actually... to be precise, Sun Wu has changed his formation again." Zhan Jun commented with a smile: "Now it is not a 343, but a 541 formation."

"Almost gave up the offense, but the defense was very intensive." Zhang Lu nodded in agreement, "Sterling, Sane and Douglas Costa have almost no room to break through. Even if they succeed in breaking through, the three central defenders behind them can also succeed." Block, just like Sterling did just now..."

"And even if you break into the penalty area, it's difficult to find a shooting angle. Manchester United's penalty area is too densely populated." Zhan Jun shook his head. "Although Aguero is not a strong center, his end has left Manchester City lacking in crosses from the wing. Pick-up point.”

Guardiola was jumping up and down anxiously on the sidelines. He bit his lip and stared at the Manchester United No. 7 who never stopped.

"Oh, it's Best again!"

"Nice steal... no foul, Griezmann passed the ball long, Falcao... almost, Bravo expanded the defensive area."

When Manchester United changed its formation for the first time, it cannot be said that Guardiola's formation change was too slow, although Manchester United completed the reversal in two consecutive games.

But after Guardiola changed his formation, Sun Wu reacted faster. In fact, Manchester City also had a chance to score, but it was a pity that Sterling kicked it away.

Does Guardiola know the situation on the field very well? The current offense can only be said to be a stroke of luck. Sun Wu's second change of formation is very targeted.

Sun Wu's own retracement made up for the weakness of the midfielder in the 343 attack formation. At the same time, the retracement of the two wings reduced the defensive area of ​​the three central defenders. This made Manchester United's defense in the penalty area very strong, let alone Even the two wingers came back to defend.

The most terrible thing is that Aguero has already ended the game. Faced with such an iron barrel formation, Guardiola can't do much.

Vidal is the only one who can rush into the penalty area and compete with strong men like Van Dijk, Alderweireld, and Lucas for landing spots.

In fact, after unable to find opportunities outside the penalty area, Vidal frequently inserted himself into the penalty area, but it was too difficult. Not to mention that Van Dijk and Alderweireld did not give him opportunities, and even Lucas was very stable. Clearing passes one by one.

And Vidal's forward penetration also brings risks.

In the 79th minute, Van Dijk made a header to clear the ball, Kante kicked forward, and Kompany beat Falcao back, but the ball fell to Sun Wu.

First, he protected the ball and walked back. After rubbing his right foot to the right, Sun Wu suddenly stepped on the ball with the sole of his foot and just bypassed the charging Fernandinho.

"Best...oh, what a beautiful turn!"

The shouts in the stands became louder again, and Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu sitting in the commentary box could only hear "King KingKing^"...

Vidal's forward penetration made Fernandinho's single defensive midfielder look weak. Sun Wu did not distribute the ball but rushed forward with the ball at high speed.

Laporta was retreating step by step, and Kompany pounced on him. This was determined by his characteristics and character. Even if he paid a yellow card or even a red card, it was worth it.

But Sun Wu didn't give him this chance. He suddenly poked his toe while dribbling the ball at high speed. This was a very hidden and unconventional action.

The ball flew towards Falcao who was driving forward.

Sun Wu himself was carried away by Kompany.

Laporta raised his hand to signal Falcao for a foul.

But Falcao didn't catch the ball, and Griezmann rushed forward and rushed towards the ball!

"Opportunity to kill the game!" Zhan Jun couldn't help shouting: "Manchester City is completely empty, Falcao can move now... Griezmann caught up... Oh, this is a flying tackle from behind! "

Zhang Lu wanted to say something, but he kept his mouth shut. The boos in the stands outside made him unable to hear what he said.

Walker, who tackled Griezmann, had an innocent look on his face. He kept emphasizing to the referee that he had touched the ball... and if he touched the ball, it would not be considered a foul. The youth training coach at that time had to cover his face.

Without any hesitation, Clattenburg shook his head and directly showed the red card, then took out the yellow card and ran to Manchester City captain Kompany who did not get involved this time.

Kompany grinned and did not protest. He knew that his foul on Sun Wu was enough to get a yellow card, but it was a pity that the foul failed to prevent Sun Wu from passing the ball.

Guardiola on the sidelines is a little desperate. This is Sun Wu... Even if he is passive, his deep reading ability of the game, high level of tactics and super personal ability can cause big trouble for his opponents in an instant.

This was almost a guaranteed goal. Griezmann took the ball diagonally from the left corner of the penalty area and had a high chance of scoring directly with a direct shot. However, he sent a cross and Falcao faced an empty goal.

Manchester City used a red card and a yellow card to prevent the game from ending early, but Sun Wu believed that the victory was already firmly in his hands.

In the 81st minute, Manchester City ran out of substitutions and replaced Baynes with Iheanacho as a last-ditch effort.

At the same time, Manchester United also replaced Bernardo Silva with Milner, and then replaced Falcao with Fletcher.

Guardiola on the sidelines smiled bitterly, Patrick beside him cursed in a low voice, and Arteta was silent.

It's not this free kick... Griezmann and Sun Wu stood in front of the ball, Fletcher responded not far away, and the other eight Manchester United players returned to their own half.

Guardiola knows Sun Wu too well, this is a winner only.

His wry smile was because of Sun Wu's substitution. He knew what the other party wanted to do.

Baines came off the field, and Laporta had to go to the left to pick up the ball. Iheanacho alone did not have enough high points in the penalty area, and Kompany entered the penalty area to grab points.

In this case, Manchester City actually only has one defensive number, Fernandinho.

The demise of Falcao and Bernardo Silva means that Griezmann, Manchester United's strongest solo player, will be at the forefront.

A last ditch effort?

Guardiola is afraid that Manchester City will not be able to wait for the last chance.

In the 85th minute, Manchester City got a chance in the penalty area. David Silva sent a pass from the right rib. Kompany and Van Dijk jumped up in the middle to compete for the top, but neither of them hit the ball.

"It's missing...Iheanacho!"

"The shot... is too slow, too slow!"

Faced with this sudden opportunity, Iheanacho was obviously not mentally prepared. He stopped the ball awkwardly and wanted to adjust before shooting. As a result, the ball was blocked by Alderweireld who blocked the hole of the gun.

Vidal rushed up and took a long shot. The ball was blocked by Fletcher with his back. Kanter quickly took the ball and sent a long pass.

This time Griezmann was never blocked again. He easily picked out the attacking Bravo and sent the ball into the empty goal.

"The goal went in!"

"Griezmann scored twice and Manchester United killed the game!"

Zhan Jun shouted: "3 to 1, the game is over!"

Griezmann excitedly took off his clothes and threw them into the stands. The live camera captured the jersey being torn into three parts in an instant...

With a score of 3 to 1 and the unfavorable situation of playing with one less player, the Manchester City players had no intention of counterattack. Clattenburg only gave one minute of stoppage time and blew the whistle for the whole game.

"Never has a team achieved a complete victory in half a season in the Premier League. Today, Manchester City failed to make history!"

"For nearly five months, Guardiola defeated all his opponents, but he fell at the feet of Best again!"

Mortensen made this comment, "I have to admit that Best is really Guardiola's nemesis."
