Chapter 705 Different Ideas

Manchester United still unswervingly implements the coach's tactics because it works.

In the 65th minute, Barcelona made its second substitution adjustment of the game.

Bruno was on the court and saw the fourth official on the sidelines calling the substitution sign. He didn't even need to see who was replacing whom. He concluded that Barcelona was already anxious and Valverde was in complete chaos.

Substitutions have only one purpose, which is to change the situation of the game. Similar to Valverde's two consecutive substitutions, the opponent did not respond once. Everyone can see that Manchester United has an advantage both tactically and psychologically.

And here, Bruno's goal at the last moment of the first half is the key. Without that goal, Barcelona would not be in a hurry at all.

Valverde replaced Roberto with Alenia in the 65th minute, Coutinho was pushed forward again, and Barcelona changed to 334.

This is definitely a desperate move!

Mourinho also had to make adjustments. Mbappe and Rashford retreated to form a forward line with Bruno to better protect the defense.

Manchester United made 4231 changes, but still no substitutions!

After the substitution, Barcelona intended to launch a fierce attack, but in the end they still could not find an effective way to break through Manchester United's defense. Instead, their own hidden dangers were finally exposed.

………………

In the 70th minute, Pique was forced to pass back to the goalkeeper under the pressure of Harry Kane.

"Beep!"

With a crisp whistle, the referee quickly ran towards Barcelona's penalty area.

This sudden whistle stunned the players on both sides of the court.

Bruno was about to run back after seeing Pique's pass back, because he thought Ter Stegen might take a big shot.

Only center Harry Kane of Manchester United continued to put pressure on Barcelona. At this time, the England forward had a look of surprise on his face. He spread his hands with a smile and made faces at his Manchester United teammates.

What's going on?

"Oh my god, that's a mistake from Ter Stegen!"

"Under Harry Kane's pressure, Pique passed the ball back into the penalty area with his right foot. Harry Kane immediately put pressure on Ter Stegen. The Barcelona goalkeeper directly picked up the ball with his hands. This It was a bad pass return.”

"A very low-level mistake from Ter Stegen!"

The live TV footage was also shown to the head coach's bench on the sidelines, and Valverde looked very speechless.

"Valverde should be very depressed now. He didn't expect that this originally didn't have many dangerous back passes, but the result was that the team gave the opponent an indirect free kick opportunity in the penalty area. This is a quite bad situation. ”

"Of course, we must also see that Barcelona was under great pressure under Manchester United's tenacious pressing. Pique's backpass was not strong enough. Ter Stegen was forced to step forward to respond, but Harry Kane But they pressed forward step by step, which put a lot of pressure on him, so he obviously forgot the rules and picked up the ball with his hands. "

………………

The entire Camp Nou stadium also booed, obviously dissatisfied with the team's stupid mistake.

Ter Stegen also hung his head, looking very frustrated.

"The referee awarded an indirect free kick in the penalty area. This was an excellent opportunity for Manchester United. Of course, Barcelona did not have a chance, because it was on the right side of the penalty area, almost perpendicular to the edge of the small penalty area, and from the penalty spot. It’s a flat position, slightly away from the goal, and it’s still a bit difficult to shoot.”

"According to the rules, an indirect free kick in the penalty area must be touched by two players at least twice."

Everyone at Manchester United was full of surprises, and they all gathered in Barcelona's penalty area.

The referee placed the ball and began to indicate that Barcelona could place a wall in front of the small penalty area.

This position is on the right side and is definitely within shooting range. If it is handled well, it can help Manchester United win another victory and reverse their opponent. This will be a painful blow to Barcelona.

But it is still very difficult to score this goal.

"This position is difficult to handle." Rashford looked at it and said with a frown.

"It's on the right side, and the human wall is relatively close. If you want to open the door directly, you must go in an arc. You can't go around both sides of the human wall. You can only go over your head. This is quite demanding. "Harry Kane said, scratching his chin.

Bruno nodded and said: "The most important thing is this angle. If a right-footed player is playing, he can only hit the near corner. If you look at Ter Stegen's position, it is obviously aimed at our near corner. If he really plays like this, Nine times out of ten they were thrown out."

"Bruno is right, only left-footed players can play." Fred said with great agreement.

………………

There are actually many left-footed players in the Manchester United team. Mata, Mahrez, Rojo, Luke Shaw, etc. are all left-footed players, but except for Luke Shaw, everyone else is not on the court now. .

In addition, there are many players with good left and right feet, such as Bruno, Harry Kane, Mbappe and Rashford.

Indirect free kicks in the penalty area may seem very threatening, but in fact they may not be, and they are equally difficult.

"Xiao, are you okay?" Bruno walked over and asked Luke Xiao with a smile.

After Luke Xiao looked at it, he shook his head and said: "If I were to fight, I would probably have to go to the front of the penalty area, otherwise I wouldn't be sure to get around the wall."

They are all professional players. After playing football for so many years, they all know what level of football they can play.

After everyone heard this, they all looked at Bruno.

Although Harry Kane, Mbappe and Rashford all have certain reverse-foot abilities, it is Bruno who is proficient in both left and right feet. He has almost transformed his left foot into a right foot.

Bruno felt the eyes of his teammates, and immediately nodded, and said without hesitation: "Then let me do it!"

Barcelona will soon have to put up their wall, and time is running out.

When Bruno said this, no one had any objection.

"How do you cooperate?" Harry Kane asked.

Everyone also paid attention.

"You two high points go to the left side and pull their high points over there. Killian is ambushing outside the penalty area. Xiao passes the ball to me. Be gentle. You'd better stop in front of me. I'll hit him directly!"

After everyone heard this, they had no objections and immediately took action separately.

………………

Soon, Bruno and Luke Shaw were standing in front of the service point. Everyone knew that Manchester United was going to beat them.

Mbappe is on the left side of the top area of ​​the penalty area, and Harry Kane and Rashford are on the left side of the goal.

This is Bruno's strategy, the purpose is to distract the Barcelona defenders.

Indirect free kicks in the penalty area only stipulate that two people must touch the ball with more than two feet, but there is no upper limit. In other words, after Luke Shaw passes the ball, Bruno has many options. He can directly look for Mbappe to take a long shot, he can look for Harry Kane and Rashford to take the ball, or he can pass it back to Luke Shaw. Xiao, go around and open the door from under the human wall. Everything happened in an instant, and Barcelona's defensive players would not have any chance to react.

"This is indeed a very good opportunity for Manchester United, but it is also very difficult."

"If you hit the goal directly from this position, the challenge will still be great. If you pass the ball to Mbappe or Harry Kane, the chance may be greater."

…

The commentators were also talking a lot and expressing their opinions.

But Barcelona are not stupid, they can also analyze these, so they are also very cautious in marking Mbappe and Harry Kane.

Even when Luke Shaw gently pushed the ball to Bruno and turned around and ran towards the baseline, a person immediately separated from the wall and stared at Luke Shaw, obviously worried that Bruno would pass the ball back again. .

………………

However, Bruno obviously did not have this idea.

He felt that the 95,000 fans in the audience were looking at him. He felt that the live TV camera and the countless fans sitting in every corner of the world behind the camera were looking at him intently.

He had almost no hesitation. After Luke Shaw gently pushed the ball, he knew clearly that this was what he wanted.

He stepped forward quickly, stood on his right foot, raised his left foot, and hit a curve ball directly from the inside of his foot.

There was only a bang, not loud, but because all the fans in the Nou Camp almost held their breath, the sound became obvious.

The ball quickly shot out from Bruno's feet, drew an arc, almost bypassed the wall, and headed directly to the upper left corner of the goal.

Ter Stegen reacted quickly, not only leaping over, but also stretched out his right hand. The Barcelona goalkeeper knew very well that if the ball was not saved, he would become a sinner in everyone's eyes after the game.

He had exhausted all his strength and stretched his arms as much as he could, but he still could not feel the feeling of his gloves touching the ball.

It wasn't until he landed heavily on the grass that he heard a burst of boos from the scene.

The ball was in the goal behind him.

Bruno rushed out of the court quickly again!

………………

"The ball went in!!!"

"An absolute blind spot!"

"Bruno hit a very exciting curve ball shot, which went directly into the upper left corner!"

"A very wonderful shot, no sloppiness at all, clean and neat!"

"This shot definitely reflects Bruno's superb shooting skills. It is really wonderful!"

…

Bruno ran all the way, rushed out of the court, and once again slipped and knelt on the sidelines!

He heard the boos in the Camp Nou stadium, but he was not afraid at all. Because in his opinion, this is like a group of paper tigers, which cannot threaten him at all!

Scored twice, still at the world-famous Camp Nou!

This is so enjoyable!
