'Ronaldinho controlled the ball, the Panathinaikos players didn't come up to defend him, he could control the ball and turn around and look up...... He passed! ”

The ball was passed to his midfield partner Keane by Ronaldinho, and the Irishman drove forward with the ball but was soon met by Panathinaikos' defence. In the face of the opponent's defense, Keane did not stick to the ball and let the opponent have a chance to entangle, but passed the football directly with one kick.

This time his pass was aimed at Cristiano Ronaldo.

After Ronaldo received the ball on the side, he used his dribbling skills and rushed along the side.

He started the last league game against Charlton Athletic and played the full 90 minutes for the first time, which was crucial to his recovery.

He is now full of confidence, daring to attack with the ball and not afraid to make physical contact or confrontation with defenders.

Panathinaikos' midfielder Alyosha. Asanovic came up to defend, but as an offensive player, his defense was just for show, or it was a foul.

Ronaldo deftly flicked away the football, and at the same time twisted his body to avoid Assanovic's rushing body, breaking through Assanovic's defense very beautifully!

There was a burst of cheers from the stands as the United fans cheered.

One of the ways to show home advantage is that when your team has players who play well, you should not hesitate to give your own applause and cheers, encourage your own players, and at the same time create psychological pressure on the opposing players.

Of course, not all home players will be able to get their unreserved support......

Cristiano Ronaldo shook Alyosha away. After that, Asanovic did not continue to sprint with the ball, because not far ahead, it was Panathinaikos's left back Honet. Henriksen, he stuck the position, and Ronaldo may only have a dead end if he wants to force a breakthrough.

So as soon as he dodged Assanovic's defence, he passed the ball to Ruud van Nistelrooy, who came up to pick him up.

Ruud van Nistelrooy is passing the ball to Drogba diagonally in front of him.

Drogba received the ball with his back to the attack. He didn't turn around, he sent the ball straight to the right. With a diagonal pass, the ball flew into the space behind the Panathinaikos backline.

At the same time, Ronaldo also rushed past Henriksen's side!

"He got the ball!"

At the same time as Drogba passed the ball, Van Persie had already rushed into the penalty area, he cut straight into the goal, did not stop in front of goal, and rushed straight to the front post.

And what about Drogba? After passing the ball, he turned and ran into the box, and he also ran a diagonal line, but he ran to the back post, which crossed Van Persie's run.

The running position of the two people was practiced repeatedly in training. So without hesitation, their goal was to open up the Panathinaikos defender in the middle of the box and empty it to create chances for their team-mates......

Who is it to create opportunities?

Ruud van Nistelrooy moved to the middle of the pitch after passing the ball to Drogba, but instead of going in right away, he paused outside the box to avoid being the most eye-catching target. After both Robin van Persie and Didier Drogba burst into the box, the defence in front of him was ripped out of a huge gap.

And at the same time. Cristiano Ronaldo, who received Drogba's ball, also managed to break through, he looked up, and then got up and crossed when Henriksen returned to intercept him!

Football is neither for Van Persie at the front post nor to Drogba at the back post waiting to be outflanked. Instead, he drew an arc and only fell into the middle of the goal!

Ruud van Nistelrooy rushed in at the moment of Ronaldo's pass, rushed to the predetermined spot with the football, and then did not hesitate. Raise your foot and stab it directly!

"Ruud—"

Ruud van Nistelrooy stabbed the ball with his toe and the ball changed lines and shot towards the goal!

With the distance too close, Vanney's stab was sudden. So even if Panathinaikos' goalkeeper reacted, he was still half a beat late!

- Ruud!! Ludo!!! Manchester United took the lead in the opening twelve minutes! They have a fantastic start! ”

All the United fans got up from their seats, they raised their arms in the air, and for a moment, there was nothing but red in the stadium. They chanted: "Manchester United!! ”

Cheers soar into the sky!

Off the pitch, Ferguson raised his arms and waved hard, not only happy that his team was ahead, but also happy that his tactical strategy worked.

It was the result of him getting all three strikers into the box, and if there was only one Drogba in the box, as was the case before, and Ruud van Nistelrooy and Robin van Persie were more on the wings, there would have been no such goals anyway. Because Drogba had to fight the opposing centre-backs in front of goal. Although Drogba is not afraid of such hand-to-hand combat, there is a better way to score, who would choose such a stupid way to attack?

'Manchester United have a one-goal lead! They have taken a solid step towards European competition on their home turf! ”

"Beautiful! Beautiful offensive coordination! From Ronaldinho's pass, Keane, Ronaldo, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Drogba have all received the ball, although Van Persie did not receive the ball, but his diagonal run is crucial! He caught the attention of the Panathinaikos defenders...... Coupled with this diagonal reverse run of Drogba, Panathinaikos's goal was empty in an instant! What a wonderful team goal! ”

It was indeed a wonderful team goal, and every Manchester United player involved in the attack immediately rushed to one place and hugged each other.

First, Drogba intercepted Ruud van Nistelrooy, who wanted to go to the corner flag to celebrate his goal, and picked him up. Then Van Persie rushed up and hugged the two of them, and then like a magnet, Cristiano Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Ryan Giggs, Ferdinand...... These people rushed up in one fell swoop, and surrounded them layer by layer.

They celebrated around the Panathinaikos penalty area, with the frustrated Panathinaikos players being the best backdrop.

"Manchester United are in full swing on their home turf—"

The commentator is right, no matter what opponent Manchester United encounters at their home stadium, they always have a momentum that is not afraid of heaven and earth. Because they know that the fans in this stadium will be desperate to support them and cause problems for their opponents, which will give them endless confidence.

Such a terrifying home atmosphere has brought trouble to many away teams. This is Panathinaikos' first time playing at Old Trafford. Before they arrived, they knew that Old Trafford was known as the devil's home stadium, but they didn't know what Old Trafford was like, and they might feel that it was no different from other away stadiums.

No matter how terrifying this place is, can it be famous at the Camp Nou and the Bernabeu?

Now they know how wrong they were before!

It's better than Camp Nou and the Bernabeu...... It's so scary!

Every fan in the red Manchester United shirt never seems to be tired, their throats don't need to rest, and they always try to stimulate the nerves of the Panathinaikos players. If Panathinaikos' performance is bad, as long as a player performs well, he will be greeted with merciless and piercing boos, overwhelming the world, making people feel "ambushed on all sides".

Playing in such an environment does make the players of Panathinaikos very uncomfortable.

Quite a few people simply can't perform at their normal level.

Despite the slow pace of his performance before Ruud van Nistelrooy's goal, their head coach was still firmly seated at the Diaoyu Tai, which he felt was normal, as his team was not the kind of team that would be able to get into the groove casually. Not to mention...... It's still away, as long as you don't concede a goal. Then slowly find your form, wait until you get into the groove, and then try to score.

The task he gave the team was to defend first.

As long as you don't lose the ball, everything is still playful!

So when Ruud van Nistelrooy scored, he jumped out of his seat in shock, which was normal......

He especially wanted to scold his mother, but he didn't know who to scold.

Manchester United's attack is really wonderful, maybe ordinary fans can't see anything for a while, but he knows it very well. It was a goal that was trained over and over again...... Every passing and running of each player is very particular and designed, and it is definitely not a flash of inspiration from a few superstars - in Real Madrid, which is known as the Galaxy Battleship, it may be able to play that kind of casual cooperation, but in this Manchester United, which has added more than a dozen newcomers, it is absolutely impossible! Even if they are the Premier League champions last season, the super giants who have won the treble, because they have too many newcomers.

So there must be only one result, and that is Manchester United has made a precise deployment against Panathinaikos!

He clenched his fists!

In the past, Manchester United basically used the tactics of two strikers, playing the kind of fast attack and defense with both wings flying together.

Unexpectedly, Manchester United did not come like this in this game, but came with a front three. On top of that, each of the three strikers has the ability to score and disrupt an entire backline by themselves.

So it is impossible to say that the focus is on defending a certain person. But if everyone has to deal with it, it is obvious that the strength in their own backline is not enough.

He had a terrible headache......

Ferguson, a veteran coach who has been in the giant Manchester United for 17 years, has learned the tactical cultivation.

It was such a simple adjustment that caused deadly chemistry in the offense, which caught him off guard......

Frustrated, he turned his head to look at the United dugout, where Ferguson was hugging and celebrating with his assistants.

It's no wonder that everyone thinks quite highly of this person, and it seems that there is a reason. (To be continued.) )
