Chapter 521: Opening the Door to Victory (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Bruce. O'Neill sat in the coach's box.
Although his side are under siege by Aston Villa, however, he is not panicking.
Similar scenes have already occurred many times in the first half of the game.
Aston Villa are not good at tackling tough battles.
In the face of a dense defense, this team has not many options.
Deisler wins the ball in the middle.
Aston Villa kicked back and forth in front of Sunderland's penalty area, however, they couldn't find the right way to attack.
Diego. Costa came out to answer.
Deisler passed the football to him.
'Costa was on the ball outside the box and as a centre-forward, he didn't stay in front of goal, he pulled it out. Lineker said.
In today's game, Fang Jue made an appropriate rotation for the team.
He's already preparing for the next Devil's Race.
Sunderland were expected to adopt a relatively conservative strategy.
Therefore, Fang Jue arranged for Diego, who has a stronger running ability, today. Costa starts.
His forward partner is Abang Laho.
In order to tear apart Sunderland's defence, Fang Jue asked the attacking players in the front court to keep running, looking for opportunities, and interspersed back and forth.
It's a job that Costa is better at than Van Nistelrooy.
This time, Costa pulled out of the box again.
Sunderland's centre-back Anton. Rio Ferdinand followed suit and burst out to build a defence on the line of the penalty area.
Anton. Rio Ferdinand is the backbone of Manchester United's defender. Ferdinand's younger brother.
Diego. Costa had the ball and he made a gesture to pass it.
Anton. Rio Ferdinand reaches out to intercept.
Feints.
Diego. Costa suddenly made a gesture to break through.
Anton. Ferdinand came up and pestered the other man.
He thought he could squeeze Diego out of him with his excellent physical fitness. Costa, achieve a break.
However, Anton. Ferdinand quickly realised how difficult his opponent could be.
"This guy is really good at protecting the ball."
Diego. Costa carried Anton. Ferdinand.
The latter made two unsuccessful attempts to steal the ball.
Suddenly, Diego. Costa tried to force his way around.
Anton. Ferdinand quickly moved his body to intercept.
Costa pulled his body back and twisted his ass to the other side.
Ferdinand was pushed away by the butt twisting motion.
Sunderland full-back Collins rushed over to make up for it.
Diego. That's the moment Costa was waiting for.
In Corinth and Anton. Rio Ferdinand's closing trip before Diego. Costa passes.
He slipped the ball through the gap between the two men's defensive line.
"Nice through ball!"
"Deisler!"
Deisler received the ball on the right flank, and instead of continuing to break through with the ball or shoot, he drove the ball straight to the left side of the box.
"Abang Laho!"
Sunderland's defence was all focused on Diego. Costa's penetrating pass and Deisler's possession of the ball attracted him.
Everyone thought that Deisler would choose to break into the box with the ball or shoot at goal.
No one expected him to pass from the right to the left.
The ball streaks past the goal.
Abang Lajo suddenly stepped forward and cut through Sunderland's entire backline and appeared behind them.
"Abang Raho! No offside!! "Narrator John. Mortenson shouted hoarsely.
Boos shook the sky above the Stadium of Light.
Sunderland fans put pressure on Abanglajo who had a one-on-one chance in this way:
It is rumored that this kid's shooting skills are very average......
Abang Laho, who had succeeded in the anti-offside position, was excited.
He knew it was his chance.
Beckham joined the team, and Abang Laho had a strong sense of crisis.
Because of Beckham's existence, Ruud van Nistelrooy, who has a tacit understanding with Beckham, will almost lock up a starting striker spot.
And against Manchester United, Diego. The partnership between Costa and Van Nistelrooy is eye-catching, and the media is also praising it.
Also on the bench were the veteran Huskey, as well as the coach brought in a youngster from Ibiza. Mane.
Abang Laho's sense of crisis suddenly increased a lot.
He now takes every scoring opportunity very seriously.
The manager rotated the squad because of the devil's schedule, and he was given a starting position today.
Abonlaho is full of fighting spirit and he wants to prove that the manager made the right decision to start him, and he needs to prove that he deserves to start.
In the face of the on-going Sunderland goalkeeper Jurgen Flopp, Abang Lajo showed commendable composure.
He didn't look ahead.
There was no hesitation.
Shoot directly into the far corner.
He rubbed the outside of his instep to shoot.
The ball arced past the striking Sunderland goalkeeper Jurgen Flopp on the left-hand side.
There was nothing Flopp could do about such a close, decisive shot.
He can only hope for Abang Lajo to shoot as poorly as he is rumored.
Then he heard cheers.
Behind the goal on this side is the stands where the Aston Villa fans are.
The Sunderland goalkeeper's heart was cold, he knew it was over! ”
The ball was almost attached to the inside of the far post and spun into the goal!
"Abang Raho! Abang Laho! Abang Laho! He scored, Aston Villa scored, 1-0! They took the lead!! ”
"Beautiful!! Abang Laho's shot! Aston Villa take a one-goal lead! ”
'The crucial goal, against a team that defended intensively, the first goal was the most crucial, it was the goal that broke the deadlock.
'1-0, this goal means that Sunderland's stubborn tactics have failed, they are now behind the scoreline, there is no point in retracting the defence, and once Sunderland press out, it will mean more problems for them, because Aston Villa are one of the teams that are the best team to counter-attack quickly.
The Sunderland players had clearly thought of this, so at the moment, the Sunderland players looked very frustrated, standing on the pitch in a daze and watching the Aston Villa people celebrate.
……
The goal-scorer Agbonlaho opened his arms and ran to the away fan stand, where he waved his fist in celebration.
In the footage, Aston Villa fans rushed forward like a tidal wave, celebrating excitedly.
"Come on! Vera people! ”
The fans were shouting loudly.
Aston Villa's nickname is 'The Villas'.
Inside the stadium, the rest of the Aston Villa players also gathered around Abang Lajo to celebrate.
It was a timely and crucial goal.
It's like piercing that layer of window paper.
It will be the goal that opens the door to victory.
……
On the sidelines, Fang Jue got up from his seat, he just applauded, and then just stood there looking at the field.
He didn't celebrate, and he told the players in this way:
Just a ball, doesn't satisfy him.
