I Am Really the Savior of the Red Devils

Ye Su attached great importance to this make-up match against Manchester City. On the one hand, it is because this is the Manchester Derby, and on the other hand, it is because he is likely to set a new Premier League and England's top league historical points record in this game.

For a fan, with the rise of Manchester City, the importance of the Manchester Derby has become more and more important, and Ye Su cannot ignore it. And to break the league points record, you can get a lot of salvation value.

Although Ye Su is not so urgently in need of salvation points now, but seeing that there is a considerable number of salvation points in front of him, and it only takes a little effort to get them, Ye Su will not refuse, let alone this game. There are reasons why it must be taken down.

Therefore, for this match, Ye Su had the strongest lineup. Goalkeeper De Gea, back four Luke Shaw, Maguire, Van Dijk and Kyle Walker, Bruno Fernandez, Mata and De Bruyne form a midfield three, and the striker trident consists of Rooney, Harry Composed of Kane and Vardy.

Compared with Yesu, who made the decision easily, Guardiola is a bit big-headed. He received instructions from the club owner, Sheikh Mansour, to try to win the game against Manchester United at home.

This is different from the previous communication and consensus between him and the stadium owner. Before this, the meaning of the club's top management was very direct, to fight for the Europa League with all their strength, and to find another way to win the Champions League seat.

Originally, the club's top management was very relaxed about the league results this season. There were no performance requirements, and it was a step that could be achieved. The prerequisite was that the UEFA Europa League competition should not be affected.

However, Chief Mansour suddenly said today that he wanted to win the game at home, which made Guardiola have to think carefully.

Although the boss didn't give a strict order to win the game, but the boss spoke, he couldn't ignore it.

………………

The Etihad Stadium, the game has begun.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has lined up the strongest lineup he can. The goalkeeper is Bravo, the back four are Kolarov, Otamendi, Kompany and Zabaleta from left to right, and Fernandinho and Yaya Toure are the double queens Waist, the avant-garde trio is Sane, Pogba and Sterling, and Aguero has a single arrow forward.

Guardiola frowned slightly. Manchester United's formation today surprised him. The opponent formed a double midfielder lineup today, but it was not the traditional combination of Kanter and De Bruyne that he predicted, but Bruno Fernandez and De Bruyne. The biggest difference between the latter and the former is that there is no interceptor in the pure sense.

This is obviously not paying attention to Manchester City's offensive ability!

Guardiola is a little upset,

He was using his brain to figure out how to use Ye Su's support to open a breakthrough from this double midfielder who obviously lacked interception ability.

But Guardiola didn't expect that Manchester United would score first before he found a way to break through Manchester United's goal.

This is Yaya Toure passing back from the back to centre-back Otamendi, who faced Harry Kane's pressing and chose to head the football back to goalkeeper Bravo, but did not expect the header to come off. With a little less strength, I watched a red figure rushing up. It was Vardy who jumped in at high speed. He caught up with the football before the goalkeeper Bravo, and then passed the goalkeeper and scored the football. empty door.

Guardiola was dumbfounded, he didn't expect the team to concede the ball so early, and in such an absolutely low-level mistake.

He was caught off guard.

………………

After leading 1-0 in the away game, Manchester United began to take their time to control the ball.

And Ye Su's role in pushing out Bruno Fernandez and De Bruyne, a brand new pair of midfielders, was reflected at this time. These two players have the ability to organize and hold the ball, plus Mata in front From time to time, they retreated to respond, which greatly improved Manchester United's ability to control the ball. Most of the time the football was at their feet, and Manchester City couldn't even grab the ball for a while.

Such a scene feels a bit out of character, because when it comes to possession, Guardiola is the real professional. Whether he is coaching Barcelona, ​​Bayern Munich, or now Manchester City, he is the representative of ball possession in world football.

Even though Manchester City's record makes people look a bit eye-catching, but in terms of ball possession, Manchester City's ball possession rate is a well-deserved leader among the 20 Premier League teams!

But I didn't expect that today, at the Etihad Stadium, in front of tens of thousands of Manchester City fans, the rivals in the same city would be playing with the ball in front of them like an axe!

How can this be tolerated?

………………

De Bruyne, Bruno Fernandez and Mata, the three organizational midfielders frequently delivered shells for Harry Kane.

In addition, Rooney and Vardy are constantly tearing up Manchester City's defense on both wings, which puts a lot of pressure on Manchester City's defense for a while.

Moreover, I don’t know if it’s because of the premature loss of the ball that affected the players. Manchester City’s players are indeed in a bad state of play today. The players made more mistakes than usual, and even began to appear unforced passes. Ball error.

In the 31st minute of the game, Manchester City's gate was pierced again.

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Harry Kane! He scored, a very interesting goal of luck!" John Mortenson shouted, "This goal allows us to draw a conclusion, the player's feeling and state of scoring and luck are also very good. When it’s good, it’s hard not to score goals.”

The live screen is replaying the goal. This is De Bruyne sending a through ball. Bruno Fernandez leaned on the strong man Yaya Toure with his back and heeled the ball. Harry Kane countered. Going offside into the penalty area, facing the attacking goalkeeper Bravo, he shoots.

Harry Kane, who had just completed the shot, was knocked down by defender Otamendi who was chasing back. After the football was thrown by Bravo, it hit the post and bounced back. At this time, Harry Kane, who fell to the ground, had just To get up, he just raised his head when the football hit Harry Kane on the forehead, rebounded and bounced into the net...

This is what Mortensen said, the feeling and luck of scoring a goal came, and it was difficult not to score a goal.

Faced with such a goal, Ye Su's mouth was wide open when he smiled.

Originally, he thought that Manchester United would inevitably face a fierce battle in this game, and was even prepared to lose, but he didn't expect that they would take a 2:0 lead in a relaxed and happy manner.

However, although Ye Su admitted that the goal was a lot of luck, but I have to say that Bruno Fernandez's pass in the midfield was really flamboyant. Facing the tall and extremely strong Yaya Toure, this kid actually tricked the opponent with a juggling pass, and even helped the team score a goal. It's really flamboyant!

………………

At the end of the first half, Manchester City fell 0:2 behind their city rivals Manchester United at home.

When the referee's whistle blew, Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola frowned and went straight back to the dressing room. For the first half of the game, he just wanted to say one thing, Manchester United was so lucky.

After the intermission, before the start of the second half, Guardiola made adjustments to the team, and they strengthened the pressing on the field.

This adjustment is still somewhat effective. Under their continuous pressing, even if Ye Su sent three major organizational midfielders, it is difficult to control the ball smoothly, and he has to surrender the possession of the ball.

While Manchester City gained possession of the ball, they played quick counterattacks in succession. Especially the frontcourt quartet composed of Sane, Pogba, Sterling and Aguero has frequently threatened Manchester United's goal.

Ye Su immediately made a substitution, and Kanter came off the bench. He replaced De Bruyne to strengthen the interception ability of the midfielder.

Then, the substitution worked wonders, and when Sterling tried to break through again, Kante cleverly double-teamed and stole the ball from the England international's feet, and United played a quick counterattack.

Bruno Fernandes sent a long ball, Harry Kane headed forward and then slid, Otamendi tackled to make a clearance, but accidentally shoveled the attacking goalkeeper Bravo to the ground, and then everyone saw Manchester United's horse. Ta was even stunned for a second, then happily dribbled the ball to the goal and kicked the football into the empty goal.

Manchester United took a three-goal lead.

………………

Guardiola thought he was going crazy. Players made mistakes constantly, and accidents continued on the field. He wondered if Manchester City was cursed.

The camera captured that when Mata scored this lucky gift package goal, Manchester United coach Ye Su did not immediately celebrate on the sidelines, but spread his hands, showing a look of surprise.

John Mortensen said: "Obviously, Ye Su was also stunned. He didn't expect Manchester City to give gifts frequently."

In the chairman's box at the Etihad Stadium, Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour did not look very good.

The team invited the famous coach Pep Guardiola early last year. They originally hoped to make a big difference in the Champions League, but they did not expect that Manchester City missed the Champions League by mistake and could only play the Europa League helplessly.

Now that he has missed the Champions League, it is also possible to play the league with all his heart and win the second Premier League championship in team history. In this regard, he strongly supported Guardiola's signings. He spent a record-setting summer of more than 300 million euros and introduced a lot of powerful players.

In the first few games of the season, Sheikh Mansur did see a magnificent Manchester City team. However, since the fourth round of the league lost to Manchester United at Old Trafford, the team has become abnormal. It fell behind the top Manchester United by a large score early, and withdrew from the competition for the Premier League title. Even the Champions League seats are in urgent need again. , had to specialize in the UEFA Europa League, a competition that he originally despised, in order to qualify for the UEFA Champions League next season.

In this game, Mansour asked the team to win Manchester United, and Guardiola also sent the strongest lineup, but look at the current results...

Mansour felt that Guardiola, who was boasted to be miraculous, was actually nothing more than that!

His friend and subordinate, Mubarak, the chairman of the Manchester City club, was comforting him, saying that 0:3 was not because of Manchester City's lack of strength, but because of bad luck.

Chief Mansur nodded, reluctantly accepting the statement.

………………

Manchester City, which was three goals behind, launched an onslaught like crazy.

Although the team owner did not force the game to win, but the home defeat will definitely be very uncomfortable. Guardiola is thinking about scoring goals now, trying to narrow the point difference as much as possible, and not seeking to win the game. Thank you if you can tie the score God.

Seeing Manchester City's heavy pressure, Ye Su stared at Manchester City's empty defense line and thought.

When Manchester City is desperately pressing up, the most suitable thing is to play a defensive counterattack.

Manchester United has no shortage of fast forwards. Rooney and Vardy on the field, as well as Martial, Rashford and Mbappe, are all world-class in speed.

However, Martial and Rashford are not in today's squad, and Vardy and Rooney's current physical fitness is not very good, so Ye Su chose to replace the magic boy Mbappe.

"This substitution is very timely. When Manchester City is aggressively attacking, their defense is empty behind them. For Mbappe, this is really suitable." Mortensen said.

Guardiola also noticed the substitution, and he could guess what Ye Su was thinking.

However, despite guessing what Manchester United is going to do, Guardiola can't do anything, unless Manchester City can accept a 0:3 loss and defend honestly, otherwise, as long as they press out, they will risk the defense line. Hidden danger of being caught by the opponent to kick the ball.

This is the situation that gambling offense must face.

Guardiola now hopes that the goddess of luck can take care of Manchester City and not give Manchester United a chance.

But when it comes to luck, Manchester City's luck today is really a bit bad.

………………

In the 81st minute of the game, Manchester City's frontcourt attack was intercepted by Kanter, and Manchester United quickly counterattacked defensively.

Bruno Fernandez, who received a pass from Maguire, did not choose to dribble forward, but looked ahead, and then kicked directly: long pass!

The football crossed the half-court and flew straight into City's backcourt.

On the right side of Manchester City, right back Zabaleta came up because of an assist, but he has not returned to the defense at this time, and there is a large open area there.

Mbappe is sprinting forward, with Mata behind him on the left and Rooney in the middle. In Manchester City's penalty area, only Kompany was alone, and another central defender Otamendi was desperately chasing back.

Manchester United formed a three-on-one in a local area!

Mbappe caught up with the football first, and then he sprinted directly with the ball.

Kompany bit the bullet and rushed forward. The captain of Manchester City is now in a panic, not only to prevent Mbappe's breakthrough, but also to prevent him from passing the ball and his long-range shots...

The Belgian felt it was too difficult for him.

At this time, for Mbappe, the smartest choice is to pass the ball, whether it is Mata or Rooney, and Kompany also mainly defends against this.

Then, the Manchester City captain saw Mbappe rushing towards him.

Well done!

Kompany welcomes this. The most experienced he is not afraid of is one-on-one, even if the opponent is a super star like Mbappe!

Then Kompany lost Mbappé in front of him. It turned out that Mbappe moved the football forward before the two were about to touch, and then started it again, rushing past Kompany like a gust of wind.

"Oh my god! Mbappe! It's like riding a motorcycle! And he stepped on the accelerator when he met Kompany!" Lineker exclaimed.

Then, everyone saw that Mbappe, who had completed a beautiful breakthrough, entered the penalty area, faced the goalkeeper Bravo, and volleyed!

Bravo slapped the football out, and Rooney followed up with another easy shot to the empty goal.

4:0!
