Chapter 276: The Old-Fashioned Way, Same Goal!

"If there is any flaw in this squad of Manchester United, it is the position of Fletcher, Keane still has not returned to the starting line-up, and the new signing Park is temporarily sitting on the bench, and the lord does not dare to give too much trust. Originally Kleberson could have started, but considering that Kleberson is likely to sign with Turkey's Besiktas, Ferguson is even less likely to trust him. In other positions, you can basically play with Chelsea, but you still lack a lot of experience. ”

'Chelsea have retained the vast majority of their squad, with new signing Del Horno making his debut, £21million signing Wright-Phillips Joe Cole on the bench and another tough Essien not in the squad. No matter how you look at it, Chelsea are indeed stronger on the cards. ”

Chelsea also took the lead in the first round of the attack, in the third minute, Arjen Robben quickly drove a free-kick in front, Duff received the ball, and a powerful left-footed shot from 20 yards on the right edge of the box was saved by Van der Sar, and Frank Lampard's follow-up shot was bravely blocked by Rio Ferdinand.

Duff takes the corner and goes straight to Argentine Crespo. Vidic battled Crespo in the middle for the first time, and Vidic jumped higher and higher than Crespo.

Duang!

He seemed to have cultivated an iron head skill, and he didn't let Crespo have the slightest chance at all. Today was Crespo's debut, and he lost his first battle with Vidic.

"Haha!" The Manchester United fans in the stands were pleasantly surprised, they didn't expect Vidic to be so easy to use, even Crespo held on, and he didn't let the other party take advantage of it at all, he was like a steel pillar that couldn't be shaken!

Nemanja Vidic's header was purposeful, the ball flew into no man's land, Scholes was the first to catch the ball, the arch of his right foot pushed the ball to the right wing, the ball flew past Lampard, Lampard could not stop it, only chased the ball, but Ronaldo followed the ball with his left foot and rushed forward.

Chelsea midfielder Claude Makelele fell to the ground and slid into a slop, whoosh -

Both feet slid to the ball at Ronaldo's feet, this time Ronaldo was not as cowardly as last season, but resolutely poked the toe of his left foot, and the whole person jumped.

"He rushed over!"

"Makelele didn't tackle the ball!"

Cristiano Ronaldo caught up with the ball again, Ashley Cole faced Ronaldo head-on, Ronaldo did not hesitate, took a bite with his right foot, continued to move forward with his left foot, and quickly swept the ball to the middle with his right foot.

Terry and Gala were holding Dong Fangzhuo, Dong Fangzhuo didn't seem to have a chance, but the ball passed in front of the three of them!

Rooney outflanks the back! The ball was passed to Rooney, not to Dong Fangzhuo, and Ronaldo's pass was quite cunning.

The moment Rooney arrived, Cech pounced and fell to the ground with both hands in his arms!

"God! Petr Cech was so timely that he didn't give Wayne Rooney a chance to shoot at all, he made a brave save! ”

In the space of just four minutes, both Chelsea and Manchester United tested their opponents with a ferocious attack.

"Brilliant attack, perfect defense! It is worthy of the collision of the two strongest teams in the Premier League! ”

Petr Cech threw the ball to Frank Lampard, who immediately diagonally blocked Robben, who took the ball and immediately left Giggs behind, who couldn't catch up with Robben at all. The former quickly cut inside in the middle. In the face of Fletcher's block, Robben smashed the ball again quickly and finally pulled out the space to shoot, and he did not hesitate to shoot hard from 20 yards, and Van der Sar reacted quite quickly! The moment Robben shot, he had already pounced in the same direction!

Well, the ball rubbed against the turf and grazed the near corner of the post and missed.

There was another climax in the stands.

Arjen Robben's quick dribbling and shooting were brilliant, and Van der Sar also showed what he could be like a world-class goalkeeper.

In the 7th minute, Ferreira crossed from the right and Robben's header from 12 yards down the middle was high over the post after Fletcher's interference.

Chelsea's attack was so fierce that United began to press more up front, which made Chelsea very uncomfortable. Then Duff accidentally lost the ball, and Scholes handed the ball directly to Dong Fangzhuo, who was returning to the receiver.

This was actually Dong Fangzhuo's first touch of the ball, he didn't waste it, considering that Terry and Gala were not far behind him, so after he took the ball and turned around, he directly supported the turf with his left foot, and shot with his right heel, without even looking at the goal!

Be confident!

Boom –

The ball whizzed between Terry and Gala and headed straight for goal.

But the angle is too positive, and Cech directly and easily confiscates!

"It's so pretty! The pace of attack and defense on both sides is so fast that they don't even seem to have time to breathe! ”

"Dong's kick is quite quality, but the angle is too positive, Terry should follow up a little closer, otherwise give Dong space to shoot, and will definitely regret it, Dong was able to score so many goals in the World Youth Championships, I thought that the opponent's central defender was not staring at him at all."

It seems that Lineker also paid attention to Dong Fangzhuo at the World Youth Championships, otherwise he would not have said it so clearly.

"You're too slow! It's like a tractor. Although the ball was saved by Cech, Dong Fangzhuo still made a sarcastic gesture in front of Terry.

Gara next to Terry had a dark face, although Dong Fangzhuo didn't say this to him, but what was the difference.

In just 10 minutes of the opening period, there were several threats from both sides.

In the 10th minute, Dong Fangzhuo played the ball to Rooney, whose long-range shot from 30 yards on the left was blocked by Galla.

After Manchester United stepped up their pressing in midfield, they regained a little advantage and had more chances.

In the 14th minute, Fletcher tackled Frank Lampard up front and then handed the ball to Cristiano Ronaldo, but Ronaldo didn't master his footwork and his cross from the right slid past the goalkeeper.

In the 15th minute, Del Horno made a long pass, Duff's header was ferried, Crespo pulled out of the box and stopped the ball with his right thigh, turned around and fired a powerful shot from 20 yards in the middle of the half-volley. This is the first time he has gotten rid of Vidic! Nemanja Vidic's pressing meant he couldn't wait for the ball to hit his feet and fired into the net early.

Two minutes later, Cristiano Ronaldo passed the ball from the right, Rooney came to meet it, and dribbled horizontally to the top of the box and shot wide of the far corner.

Although Manchester United's card strength is worse than Chelsea's, it is not weaker than Chelsea at all.

At this time, Ferguson was quite satisfied with the performance of the players on the field, but the South Korean star Park Ji-sung, who was sitting on the bench, kept his mouth open, his eyes almost motionless, and it seemed that this top-level confrontation had brought him too much shock.

If you don't watch your new teammates play, you can't really appreciate how fierce the game is! He asked himself internally, if he appeared on the field now, would he be able to keep up with the rhythm of his teammates?

In the 19th minute, Robben broke down the right and fired a powerful shot from 30 yards down the middle that was blocked by Cech again.

Chelsea are gradually getting into form.

In the 21st minute, Robben broke through to the right side of the penalty area and fired a low shot into the near corner from 12 yards in front of goal.

In the 23rd minute, Robben's left-footed curling shot from 28 yards on the right was slightly high into the far corner.

"Robben!"

"Robben!"

"Robben!"

Arjen Robben's name rang through the stadium and in the space of a few minutes, although he didn't find the back of the net, but the succession of shots made the United defence and Van der Sar feel terrified.

The tempo seems to be completely in Chelsea's hands, and Arjen Robben is their best player.

Manchester United's limited offensive is now only left on Ronaldo's side, before the start of this season, the media began to compare Ronaldo and Robben again, Robben is so fierce now, Ronaldo is definitely not far behind.

In the 24th minute, Cristiano Ronaldo ran to the middle and cut off the ball at Lampard's feet!

"Not good!"

Cristiano Ronaldo rarely comes down the middle, and this one came as a surprise, as it was Lampard's third mistake of the game.

Ronaldo did not give the ball to Paul Scholes next to him, but continued to dribble the ball in front of the Chelsea penalty area, Ferreira tried to tackle the ball in the middle, but Ronaldo took a big step to avoid it.

At this moment, Ronaldo is as fierce as a god!

Terry couldn't take care of Dong Fangzhuo anymore, and threw Dong Fangzhuo to Gala, and he rushed up to block Dong Fangzhuo.

But Ronaldo had already gotten up and hit the ball with the instep of his right foot.

Whew-

The half-high ball sped through the base of his ear.

When Dong Fangzhuo quickly turned around in Gara's stunned eyes, Cech's figure was already flying in the air, his limbs stretched out, and his left palm slapped on the ball in a dashing manner.

Dong Fangzhuo shook his head with a lion......

“Goooooooooal!”

“Goooooooooooooal!”

“Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!”

"It's another leak in front of the goal, the old-fashioned way of shooting......"
