From the Man Behind the Football King to the Football King

Chapter 597 Go All Out

Bruno looked back at the football, and then tried to adjust his speed and let the football fall in front of him.

The football fell from behind him. He just stretched out his foot to tap the football, and felt his supporting foot kicked. But he did not fall, because this degree of injury could not interfere with him.

He rushed forward and continued to control the ball. At this time, the person next to him rushed up and stretched out his hand to grab his clothes. He ran forward again, but he could not run.

The referee's whistle sounded, Real Madrid fouled!

The fouler was Isco. He ran away immediately after the foul. The referee just made a gesture for Manchester United to take a free kick in the backcourt. Manchester United's fast break opportunity was gone.

Bruno looked at Isco's back meaningfully.

He did not receive such treatment in the first half. The players of Real Madrid played politely. There was no yellow card in the first half, which explained the problem.

It seems that his performance in the first half made the Real Madrid players alert and began to use some tricks to deal with him.

Such actions are exactly how highly Real Madrid values ​​him, because they can no longer use normal means to stop Bruno, and can only use these small actions.

………………

Facts have proved that Bruno's idea is correct. In the subsequent games, as long as Manchester United switches from defense to offense, when Bruno gets the ball in the backcourt, at least two Real Madrid players will come up to him and foul him, and they are not even here to steal the ball, but to foul him.

However, their fouls are very minor, at most some pulling jerseys, pushing and shoving, and tripping...

These fouls are not enough to get a card, but they can effectively stop Manchester United's fast attack and make Manchester United's players run in vain again and again.

Under their fouls, Bruno did not organize a fast break.

Bruno understood that it seemed that the opponent intended to use this method to curb himself and Manchester United's speed.

Bruno knew that this would cause some trouble for himself, but it was just some trouble.

If you foul me, I will reduce the time the football stays at my feet, so your foul will naturally be useless.

I don't have the ball, why are you still fouling me?

When the ball came again, Bruno even used his heel to knock the ball to Kante behind him, and it was impossible for the opponent to foul him again.

If they rushed up to foul at this time, they would definitely not be able to escape the yellow card.

Fouling against players without the ball must be strictly prohibited!

And there is another benefit to doing this, which is to make Manchester United's already fast attack speed faster, because the ball does not need to stay at his feet, saving a lot of time.

………………

Kante passed the ball to Bruno, but the power was a little weak. There was Kroos next to him, and the opponent rushed up when he saw this.

In fact, Kante knew that it was bad when he passed the ball. His pass was too weak, and it was easy for the opponent to intercept it in the middle and then counterattack.

So after passing the ball, he quickly stepped back and prepared to defend Kroos.

Bruno did not give up the ball. He and Kroos rushed up together to compete for possession of the ball.

Generally speaking, if a player were to be placed in Bruno's position, he would most likely choose to pass the ball with a big kick to get the ball out of this narrow space as soon as possible, or to dunk the ball back and pull it back with his feet to get rid of the fierce pressing of Kroos.

Bruno did not do this. He strode towards the ball. Although it looked like he was going to kick the ball away or dunk the ball behind him, he swung his foot very lightly. The ball was rubbed up by him and just passed the legs of Kroos who was intercepting it and returned to Kante's feet.

Kante took a step back and saw the ball flying towards him. He stopped quickly. Bruno pointed to the far end, and he understood and moved the ball directly out, breaking the front court pressing of Real Madrid.

………………

This performance won applause from the stands for Bruno, but it was by no means the only wonderful performance of Bruno.

When he moved to the front court, Valencia passed the ball from the back court.

Bruno had just stopped the ball when Casemiro was almost behind him.

Bruno did not continue to control the ball, nor did he try to stop it.

After the ball fell, he first lifted it with his left foot to slow down its fall, then he half-turned and used the outside of his right foot to push the ball to the side, and Kante, who came in from behind him, used his thigh to push the ball out.

No Real Madrid player thought that Bruno would pass the ball like this, and Kante easily broke through with the ball!

"Oh!!" The Manchester United fans in the stands exclaimed.

The commentators also applauded Bruno's inadvertent display of skills and awareness.

"Wonderful!"

"What else can we say besides beautiful?"

"Casemiro couldn't even touch Bruno's clothes, and the ball was already sent out by him!"

"Bruce taught the masters of Real Madrid a lesson!"

...

Various praises appeared in the commentary booth at the same time.

………………

Such scenes appeared many times in the following games, and even Mourinho couldn't help but applaud and cheer for his wonderful performance again and again.

As the head coach of Manchester United and having coached the team for two seasons, Mourinho has seen Bruno's performance like this before, but it is definitely not rare. Only when Bruno faces a real strong enemy and takes it seriously, he will have such a performance that makes people applaud.

Bruno's wonderful performance makes the Real Madrid players a little uncomfortable. In previous videos, Bruno has never shown such strength.

They think Bruno is at most an excellent midfield organizer, but now Bruno can't be simply defined by this!

The world's No. 1 midfielder and the world's top three football giants are definitely not in vain!

When you think he is going to stop the ball, he stops and passes, shaking off Casemiro who is defending him.

When you think he is trapped in the double defense of two Real Madrid players and will definitely lose the ball, he passes the ball out in the defense of two people pulling and shoveling.

When you think he stops the high ball to give you time to defend him, he directly uses his feet to pad the ball to his teammates...

When he has these performances, it is really difficult for you to just regard him as an ordinary excellent midfielder.

Real Madrid fans are familiar with such performances, because the current Real Madrid coach Zidane has given them such wonderful performances.

………………

Bruno knows that Real Madrid is a little flustered now, because his fast play has worked.

In this case, we must strike while the iron is hot and decide not to wait for Real Madrid to react. They are a world-class giant. When they react, their strong strength will begin to play a role. At that time, Manchester United will definitely die if they want to fight the opponent head-on.

Thinking of this, Bruno led his teammates to speed up the pace of attack.

In the 60th minute, Real Madrid just completed an attack, and Benzema's shot was directly hugged by De Gea.

As soon as they saw De Gea catch the ball, the Real Madrid players ran back quickly.

They already knew how fast Manchester United's fast attack was!

Seeing Real Madrid retreat quickly, De Gea did not rush to throw the ball out. He waited for everyone to return to their positions before kicking the ball forward with a big foot.

Harry Kane and the opponent's central defender Ramos competed for the header in the middle. The younger Harry Kane had the upper hand and he headed the ball back.

Bruno had already moved forward to meet the ball, and the ball that Harry Kane headed back fell in front of him. Bruno raised his foot to stop the ball.

Casemiro quickly pressed forward and entangled him.

Bruno did not continue to run forward with the ball, nor did he get entangled with Casemiro. He used his left foot to pretend to flick the ball to the left behind the ball, causing Casemiro's body to move there. But this was just a feint. He jumped up and did not flick the ball, but used his right foot to flick the ball to the right, which was exactly the opposite of Casemiro!

It was too late for Casemiro to adjust his center of gravity. Bruno flicked the ball and broke through from his left hand side!

………………

Just after breaking through Casemiro, Bruno faced Modric's interception. The two were very close.

This is also one of the ways Real Madrid uses to deal with Bruno. The distance between the two defensive players is very close, which does not give Bruno the opportunity to adjust when he passes continuously. Taking advantage of his distraction, he can steal the ball and increase the chance of stealing the ball.

Facing Modric, Bruno did not speed up and rush forward. Although he had just gotten rid of Casemiro, he still slowed down to increase the stability of his ball control.

Just as Casemiro turned around and caught up, and Modric also took a step forward, Bruno passed the ball horizontally to the right with his left foot.

Kante came up and received the ball, and Bruno, who had no ball, easily ran between the two people.

The whole Manchester United team was rushing forward, even the defensive midfielder Kante passed the center line, and the two full-backs almost became wingers.

This is Manchester United's offensive posture. Their almost desperate attack gave many opponents a headache, and also made opponents feel that there was an opportunity.

But in fact, it is not so easy to take advantage of the gaps when they press forward. First, they have to remain unscathed in Manchester United's wave after wave of attacks, so that they can create threats in the next counterattack.

Real Madrid has this ability, so they are not panicking. They are waiting for the gaps when Manchester United press forward.
