Chapter 506: Big Reversal
Five minutes later, Manchester United once again entered Huddersfield's 30-meter zone.
When Herrera received the ball from his teammate within 30 meters, he was blocked by Huddersfield's midfielder. He was forced to turn to the right and seek cooperation from the wing.
"Here!"
When Herrera needed it most, Bruno suddenly appeared in the empty space on the left side of the center and raised his hand to ask for the ball.
The Spanish midfielder passed the ball without hesitation and reminded him to pay attention to his side: "Be careful!"
But Bruno seemed to be prepared. Facing Herrera's ball, he took advantage of the situation and moved forward.
It was this sudden change that made Huddersfield's midfielder Jonathan Hogg miss.
The area where Bruno received the ball made Huddersfield's defensive players very uncomfortable, especially after stopping the ball and passing Jonathan Hogg, he could directly dribble the ball to face Huddersfield's back line, and Harry Kane also reacted quickly and turned to rush forward.
Bruno dribbled the ball straight to Huddersfield's defense, quickly approached the penalty area, and passed the ball straight to his back.
Harry Kane also reacted quickly, running behind him to catch the ball. Unexpectedly, Huddersfield's Danish central defender Zanka reacted faster, sliding down and intercepting the ball, preventing it from passing behind him.
But Bruno's reaction was also very fast. He rushed after the football in the first time, and before the other central defender of the opponent, he dribbled the ball shoveled by Zanka to the left with his right foot. After dribbling past the opponent's central defender, he was in the top of the arc at the front of the penalty area, and kicked a curved ball with the inside of his right foot.
The ball drew a beautiful parabola, slowly fell, and hit the upper right corner of Huddersfield's goal.
………………
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLL!!!!!!”
“GOAL!!!!”
“In the 67th minute, in the 67th minute, Bruno scored the second goal for Manchester United in this game!”
“2:2, Manchester United equalized the score!”
“In the first half, Huddersfield scored two goals in five minutes, which stunned Manchester United. Now Manchester United also scored two goals in five minutes to equalize the score, which also made Huddersfield players very excited!”
“The current situation is very favorable for Manchester United!”
When Bruno kicked this shot, he already had a very strong feeling that the ball was in!
The position was right! The angle was right! It was a safe inside of the foot again!
When he saw that although the opponent's goalkeeper Rosser stretched his arms as much as possible and flew to save the ball, he still couldn't stop the ball from entering the net, he turned excitedly and rushed out of the penalty area, running all the way out of the stadium.
"It was wonderful!"
"After coming on as a substitute in the second half, Bruno performed very well. He not only planned and directed the first goal himself, but also scored the second goal of the game."
When seeing Bruno's arcing shot, Huddersfield's American head coach Wagner shook his head in frustration. Huddersfield's league record of not winning this season will continue...
From the beginning of the second half, Bruno was extremely active on the left, and Tom Smith couldn't stop him alone.
As a player who broke the dominance of Messi and Ronaldo in football, Wagner knew that Bruno would be strong, but he didn't expect him to be so strong.
This was completely a one-man show, breaking through Huddersfield's defense!
Is this the ability of a Golden Ball-level superstar?
………………
In front of the visiting team's coaching bench, Mourinho jumped up with excitement.
When he saw Huddersfield leading by two goals and setting up a strong defense at the beginning of the second half, Mourinho knew that Manchester United would have a hard time in today's game!
As the best head coach in the world of football who is good at playing the iron bucket formation, Mourinho knows how difficult it is to break the world's problems.
However, facing the iron bucket formation set by Huddersfield, Bruno led the team and scored two goals in just 22 minutes to equalize the score on the field.
"Bruno is too strong! It's really amazing!" Mourinho exclaimed.
As a top coach who has been dominating the world of football for more than ten years, Mourinho has coached too many superstars, including Cristiano Ronaldo, who is known as one of the two prides of the 21st century, but only Bruno makes him confused and full of surprise.
Is he a genius?
Anyone who has seen Bruno's performance when he debuted in Boavista will not think he is a genius.
He is not like Drogba, who has a naturally strong body; nor is he like Yosi, who has been with football since childhood and has superhuman talents.
He is somewhat like his national team predecessor Cristiano Ronaldo. Both of them are equally self-disciplined and diligent.
Of course, both of them have also achieved great success.
Well, in two days, the two Portuguese will compete for this year's World Footballer of the Year in London. And he, Jose Mourinho, will also compete with Zidane and Allegri for the 2017 FIFA Best Coach.
………………
While Mourinho was daydreaming, the game on the field was still going on.
Bruno, who scored a goal, was more active on the field, with a wide range of activities, no longer limited to the left.
In the 78th minute of the game, Bruno suddenly appeared in the middle, received a cross pass from Lingard on the right, blocked Huddersfield's midfielder with his body, and rushed forward with the ball.
After Bruno entered the opponent's 30-meter area, the Huddersfield midfielder decided to make a tackle, but Bruno cleverly dodged the ball.
The two central defenders of the opponent, one in front and one behind, saw Bruno pass the ball and quickly rushed up.
But they were fast, and Bruno's speed was obviously faster than them. Suddenly, he sprinted and dribbled the ball with his left foot.
After dribbling past an opponent's central defender with his left foot, he quickly poked forward with his right foot.
"A beautiful pass!"
"Bruno dribbled the ball in the middle, passed three Huddersfield players in a row, rushed into the penalty area, and had a single shot!"
"The ball went in!!!!"
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLL!!!!!!"
"3:2, Manchester United reversed the score!"
"Bruno performed a wonderful play of passing three people in a row, his condition is really good!"
………………
The entire John Smith Stadium was obviously dead silent, only about two thousand Manchester United fans who came from afar in the corner cheered loudly and shouted wildly at the Manchester United players below the stands.
Bruno quickly rushed out of the stadium, rushed to the corner flagpole, slid on his knees, looked up at the Manchester United fans in the stands, and made a listening gesture.
The two thousand Manchester United fans in the stands also shouted his name in coordination.
Bruno himself did not expect it to be so smooth. Huddersfield's defense should not be so bad. They only lost 9 goals in the first eight rounds, which is considered a mid-level level among the 20 teams in the league.
But he really felt that his body was full of energy, which was reflected in the rapid acceleration just now.
"This kid!" Mourinho laughed.
Although he decided to replace Bruno in the midfield, he was thinking that he would turn the tide after he came on the field, but considering that Bruno had fought Liverpool and Roma in the past week, his physical condition was not very good, and Mourinho did not have much hope of reversing the score away from home.
Unexpectedly, Bruno actually brought such a surprise. He scored twice and assisted one goal, and created three goals by himself, helping Manchester United reverse the score on the field.
"Wagner is probably going to cry!" Faria laughed.
After hearing this, Mourinho turned his head and looked at the coaching bench of the home team, and found that David Wagner's face was really ugly.
Losing three goals in less than 20 minutes, this is simply the rhythm of collapse!
………………
The Huddersfield coach immediately walked to the sidelines and kept calling on the players to stay calm and pay attention to steadying their position. But on the field, Manchester United's morale was high and continued to control the advantage on the field.
When the game reached the 82nd minute, Bruno received a pass from Ashley Young in front of the left baseline, rushed back to the penalty area from the baseline, and passed the ball back to the penalty spot. Harry Kane quickly inserted and scored in one fell swoop.
4:2!
Manchester United completely controlled the situation on the field.
Before the end of the first half, Lingard and Valencia cooperated on the right again, and the England international passed the ball diagonally behind the Huddersfield defense.
Bruno quickly inserted diagonally behind and rushed into the Huddersfield penalty area. When the opponent's goalkeeper decisively abandoned the goal, he raised his left foot high and unloaded Lingard's diagonal pass.
The football seemed to be stuck to Bruno's feet and was directly unloaded by him.
The opponent's goalkeeper missed, and when he wanted to rush to Bruno again, Bruno had already pushed the empty goal directly!
5:2!
Hat trick!
Bruno's third hat trick in the Premier League this season!
All the Manchester United fans who came to the away game with the team shouted Bruno's name at the top of their lungs.
Bruno also rushed to the sidelines again and slid on his knees to celebrate his third goal of the game, which was also his 16th goal of the season.
………………
In the end, Manchester United relied on Bruno's hat trick and Harry Kane's double goal to reverse Huddersfield 5:2 and win three points after losing two goals.
And because Mourinho replaced Bruno and Harry Kane in the midfield, this game was also regarded as a classic of his on-the-spot command.
After the victory, Manchester United won nine consecutive Premier League games at the beginning of the season, and Mourinho tied the record of nine consecutive Premier League wins at the beginning of the season that he created at Chelsea twelve years ago.
Even, Manchester United's nine consecutive wins were even crazier than Chelsea's nine consecutive wins: the Red Devils scored 40 goals in 9 games, but only lost 2 goals!
