I Am Really the Savior of the Red Devils

Chapter 133: Wits and Bravery

At that moment, Bernat hesitated for a moment, considering whether to follow Kyle Walker or Rooney.

But it was this slight hesitation that prevented him from following Rooney in time.

Kyle Walker got it and sent the ball to the baseline as Vidal got in his way.

Rooney and Bernat were competing for speed. At this moment, Rooney didn't look like a 30-year-old veteran, and he actually suppressed Bernat, who was famous for his speed.

After Rooney caught up with the ball, he made an arcing pass with his right foot and sent a precise arcing ball.

Vardy blocked Alaba with his body at the front point, and directly shook his head to attack the goal when facing the incoming ball.

Neuer's reaction speed is not fast enough. He judged Vardy's attack angle first, bent down to block, and even blocked Vardy's close-range header.

But the ball didn't fly far away, and it was De Bruyne who came up behind him. Before Kimmich and Vidal, he shot directly and sent the ball into Bayern with a powerful long-range shot. goal.

After the Belgian midfielder scored a goal, he was so excited that he looked up to the sky and screamed.

Manchester United players swarmed up and celebrated De Bruyne one after another.

Rooney also ran over, hugged De Bruyne warmly, and at the same time comforted Vardy.

In the attack just now, Vardy was indeed unlucky. Under normal circumstances, it was definitely a must-goal. But it is a pity that the opposite goalkeeper Neuer is also a world-class super goalkeeper. He performed bravely and rejected Vardy's shot.

………………

Manchester United scored another goal and the situation became tense again.

For Bayern, it is definitely not a good result to score 3:2 at home with Manchester United. Everyone knows the horror of Old Trafford. After Ye Su became the head coach of Manchester United, there has never been a team Able to beat Manchester United in the Theater of Dreams.

Guardiola finally made his first substitution adjustment of the game, replacing Kimmich with Javi Martinez.

After all, Kimmich is not a true defender, so it is a helpless choice for him to play as a central defender. In the two goals conceded by Bayern just now, Kimmich's performance was not very good, and it can even be said that he should bear a lot of responsibility, which strengthened Guardiola's determination to make substitutions.

Although Martinez is also best at not being a central defender, he has played in this position before and has an advantage in height.

Moreover, Harvey Martinez is good at playing the midfielder. When Bayern needs to strengthen the attack, he can move forward to the midfielder position, liberate Vidal, and release the offensive energy of the Chilean midfielder.

In fact, after Harvey Martinez appeared on the field, his position was not at the central defender, but appeared at Vidal's midfielder before. And Vidal's position is mentioned as a front midfielder. As for Ribery and Muller, they are mentioned as a striker. Bayern's formation is 343, and their offensive power is unprecedentedly strong.

And the facts have proved that Guardiola's substitution is correct. After the substitution adjustment was completed, in less than three minutes, Bayern played a very wonderful cooperation.

The Chilean midfielder Vidal, who had been released from attacking power, took the ball and dunked past the defender. He passed a diagonal pass with his right foot to the front point. The ball hits the goal.

The ball flew directly into Manchester United's goal, and De Gea was beyond his reach!

hat trick!

Lewandowski scored his third goal of the game and his eleventh in the Champions League this season. He tied Rooney in the Champions League scorer list, second only to scoring thirteen. Cristiano Ronaldo of the ball!

The Polish striker was so excited that he rushed out of the stadium, receiving the cheers of more than 70,000 Bayern fans along the way.

The score on the field became 4:2, and Bayern once again gained a two-goal advantage!

………………

"Bayern's cooperation this time is indeed quite beautiful!"

"Javi Martinez came on and released Vidal, who immediately gave the team a wonderful assist."

"Lewandowski's goal made him once again tied Rooney, who just scored a goal, in the Champions League scorer list, second only to Real Madrid's head striker Cristiano Ronaldo!"

"Guardiola also started to make a second substitution adjustment at this time. Koeman replaced Douglas Costa."

"This is a match-up substitution. Costa faced a lot of pressure in today's game, and his physical consumption was also great. Guardiola replaced him with the teenager Koeman, which not only maintains the pressure on Manchester United on the field, but also gives the team a new look. A chance for teenagers to exercise. After all, the opportunity to compete with a super team like Manchester United is very rare, which is very helpful for Koeman's growth."

"It should be said that it has been 80 minutes since the game, and Bayern has basically secured the victory. Guardiola is now more concerned with how to keep the current score."

"4:2, although Bayern gave the opponent two away goals, Bayern still firmly holds the initiative to advance."

"Although Old Trafford is the home of the Devils, it is not easy for Manchester United to beat Bayern there by two goals."

...

………………

Manchester United also quickly made substitution adjustments. Ye Su replaced Van Dijk with Harry Kane.

The performance of the Dutch central defender in this game was indeed not ideal. Even in the second half, he was still seized by Lewandowski and scored a header from above his head.

In today's game, his state is obviously relatively sluggish.

Of course, it's not just Van Dijk, Ribery on Bayern's side also performed quite mediocre in this game. On the contrary, Vidal is very active. Of course, the best performance of the Bayern team is Lewandowski who performed a hat-trick.

After the substitutions, Manchester United returned to a 442 formation, 4411 to be precise, with Harry Kane at the forefront as an arrow after his debut. Rooney's position is relatively free, but he is more of a shadow forward.

Ye Su's substitution was obviously a signal to strengthen the offense. Obviously, he was not willing to suffer a defeat in Germany.

This is not just for the pursuit of the undefeated record in the Champions League, but Ye Su is very clear that against a super giant like Bayern, even in the Theater of Dreams, Manchester United is still not sure of winning. Therefore, it is naturally the best if we can fight for a close score in the away game.

Rooney is also not reconciled to the result of the game at this time.

For a veteran over 30 years old, he was really tired and out of breath by the 80th minute of the game. Whenever he had the chance, he stopped and gasped for breath. Beads of sweat kept slipping from his head, and his whole body was already drenched.

But he still felt reconciled.

In Italy, Manchester United can win Juventus by two goals, so why did they accept a big defeat as the result in Germany?

More importantly, if you are behind by two goals, how can you catch up at home?

………………

During a change to the left, Rooney received a pass from Luke Shaw and took the ball on the left to face Alaba.

He started quickly, trying to quickly get rid of the Austrian central defender.

The Austrian defender is in his prime, and his quality is not worse than Rooney at all, or even worse. Although Rooney took the initiative, he squeezed Lu Xiaopang with his body and made a lot of small moves, forcing Rooney to fail to get rid of his defense.

The two entangled all the way to the bottom line of the penalty area on the left. Rooney was forced to make a cross. The ball hit Harvey Martinez's feet and went out of the bottom line.

Manchester United wins a corner.

Rooney raised his head and glanced at the scoreboard, eighty-nine minutes.

Time is running out, is this really the end?

2:4, it's not easy to chase after returning to the home court!

At least one more goal, right?

………………

Players from Manchester United and Bayern came to the penalty area one after another, ready to attack and defend corner kicks.

Luke Shaw comes over to take the corner.

And just when Rooney and Luke Xiao passed by, he suddenly grabbed Luke Xiao and whispered: "I have an idea."

Luke Shaw was stunned for a moment, but thinking that Rooney is the captain of the team, he has often taken corner kicks for Manchester United before, and he has also used corner kicks to help the team score many times, so he nodded to Rooney and replied: : "You say, I listen to you."

Rooney immediately moved to Luke Xiao's side and chattered for a while.

Luke Shaw shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I can't, let Maguire come over, he has good physical fitness and can carry it."

Today's Luke Shaw is not the fat Shaw that people are familiar with later. Although he is not yet 21 years old, although he is tall, he is not strong.

Rooney thought for a while and nodded.

Soon, he picked up the football with his right foot, hugged it in his arms, pulled up the jersey, and wiped it vigorously. It felt as if even a trace of grass on the ball would affect his next plan.

By the time Wayne Rooney flicked the ball into the corner pin, both teams were largely in place.

All of United's high points came in the box, including Koulibaly. But Maguire was an accident. According to the usual practice, the Manchester United central defender who was supposed to compete for the top in the penalty area did not go to the penalty area, but came near the corner flag area. It seemed that he was preparing to play tactically with Rooney.

Bayern has obviously studied Manchester United's corner kick tactics. They know that in the past two years, Manchester United has scored many goals through corner kicks. It can be said that corner kick tactics are also one of Manchester United's scoring weapons.

Guardiola kept calling the players on the sidelines, asking them to pay attention to the high points in the penalty area.

Harry Kane, Vardy, and Coulibaly are all high points with good header ability, and there are heavy gunners like De Bruyne and Carrick at the front of the penalty area. Who dares to be careless?

Instead, Maguire, who ran to the corner flag area and pretended to meet Rooney, made the Bayern players feel a little relieved inexplicably. If this guy goes to the penalty area, with his height advantage, he will pose a great threat to Bayern. Now this guy runs to the side to play a tactical corner with Rooney, which is the best.
