Chapter 634: After the Defense Escalation
122 seconds, that is, 2 minutes 02 seconds, the time is not long, not short, the fastest goal he created in the Champions League before, the goal in the opening 11 seconds is even more terrifying.
However, in the eyes of fans on both sides, this goal is no different from any of the fastest goals in the Champions League.
Anyway, the butt didn't even sit hot, and before I even looked at the pitch seriously, the ball went in.
The huge Camp Nou stadium was silent, as if there was not a single fan watching the game. Previously, because Manchester United fans were attacked by opposing fans in Munich, Germany, today the club called on Manchester United fans not to watch the game away, so there was no screaming from Manchester United fans at this time.
Dong Fangzhuo and Ferguson hugged each other tightly, and his teammates rushed wildly behind him.
He couldn't think of a better way to celebrate, his goal was clear, to lead United to this year's Champions League final, and the joy of that goal was best shared with Alex Ferguson.
Ferguson was so happy that he almost couldn't parry, and his old bones almost fell apart.
There's no better way to start than this.
"Once Manchester United started to take the lead this season, they haven't failed, no matter who the opponent is, hehe."
"Barcelona's nightmare is probably here again, didn't you just say that it will be difficult for Dong to score? It only took him two minutes to solve the puzzle. ”
※※※※
Puyol looked at his new partner Thuram blankly, didn't the French central defender brag before the game that he would definitely be able to stare Dong Fangzhuo? For this reason, the two of them have been engaged in exercises in training recently, treating their teammates as imaginary enemies to defend and train, and Thuram has also performed very well.
However, now that the game has just begun, the defense has fallen.
What's the problem?
He and Puyol were not lazy just now, and their attention was quite concentrated, but Dong Fangzhuo just scored.
Alas......
If you want to blame, you can only blame Dong Fangzhuo for being too strong.
In fact, Thuram and Puyol both played against Dong Fangzhuo in last year's World Cup, and many of their national team teammates also played against Dong Fangzhuo, but without exception they all became losers.
Haven't other people studied Dong Fangzhuo well, and no one wants to deal with Dong Fangzhuo?
No
all want to defend him and keep Dong Fangzhuo clean. But Dong Fangzhuo is not a traditional striker, he will not stand in and out of the penalty area unchanged, waiting to be guarded by two central defenders.
If the lineup is 442, then Dong Fangzhuo will do it most of the time. But Manchester United has been playing 433, Dong Fangzhuo's position cannot be fixed, Rooney and Ronaldo can cross with him at any time, the range of activities of these three people is almost not fixed, in the last two seasons, Dong Fangzhuo has not completely stayed in the penalty area in a game, he will be seen in the left, middle and right three activity areas, and run back from time to time, the purpose is not to let the opponent prevent death, and not let the opponent calmly arrange the defensive line......
"We need someone to step up,"
"You can't always drop the chain at the critical moment, what about our stars?"
"It's Dong every time, where are our players?"
Barcelona fans who have regained their consciousness have begun to pay attention to their players, such as Ronaldinho, who has fallen off the stage, Messi, who is rising, Iniesta, Gudjohnsen, Xavi, who contributed silently, etc., these people usually perform very well, can't one of them perform gorgeously today?
At the moment, the beautiful night sky at Camp Nou is not beautiful at all!
Rijkaard crossed his hands over his chest and didn't let out a fart.
What can he say about this sudden conceded goal......
Beep
Matches resumed. There is only one goal left for Barcelona, score, score, score! There is no point in defending, they are going to attack the Manchester United defence.
"Be careful, be sure to concentrate!"
Nemanja Vidic raised his arms at the back, reminding his United team-mates that he was here not for tourism, but for winning.
Ronaldinho soon began to break through on the left side, although the body looked a lot more bloated than last year, but the ball was at his feet, no one could snatch it, he kept rushing to the bottom line with the ball, Carrick kept following him, and could only force him near the baseline.
Hmmm-
Neville came from the other side and shoveled straight at Ronaldinho's feet!
The ball is broken!
The Brazilian was heavily cared for by the United players on the left flank, with the clever Carrick not making a move, but instead waiting for his team-mates to come and help, before Neville scooped the ball off the touchline.
Ronaldinho shook his head, feeling that he was not decisive enough to break through Carrick earlier. Andres Iniesta still threw the throw-in at his feet, but this time there were two people directly behind him, and Ronaldinho stepped on the ball with his right foot and suddenly knocked it back......
He wanted to knock the ball directly with his heel and turn around, but the ball didn't knock over, and the person didn't turn around, but Vidic didn't know how to come out and kicked the ball directly, and Modric came over to catch the ball.
The infinitely industrious Manchester United players came together to snatch the ball again.
Modric's short legs adjusted, and when he looked up, he was about to pass the ball out, because he saw Dong Fangzhuo and Rooney were crossing, and it was a great opportunity to counterattack.
Sou......
A lithe figure flew to the left.
It was Xavi, who was even smaller than him, and Barcelona's new brain would not let him pass the ball so easily, and Xavi, who was fast-moving, immediately blocked in front of Modric.
Modric dunked with his right foot and flashed the ball to the left, and Xavi's body moved quickly and was not shaken down by his simple smash.
But Luka Modric's left foot struck again and the ball was back on the right.
Xavi was out of the way this time, but Modric also lost the best chance to pass the ball and nudged the ball forward to Scholes.
Bang –
There's one more person in Barcelona who isn't stupid, and that's Deco.
Deco sneaks up on Scholes and knocks him to the ground.
Beep!
Deco stopped United's attack with a foul, the referee didn't say anything, and the cunning Deco made a beautiful tactical foul.
Rijkaard couldn't help but applaud lightly from the sidelines and looked very happy with Deco's performance, and he needed the kind of player who was focused and decisive at all times.
Although it was a little far from the goal, almost 40 meters, Ronaldo still chose to shoot directly, and his ball flew straight to the Barcelona goal like a cannonball, but it eventually missed the post.
Barcelona finally won the ball back, but for the next 10 minutes, the two sides battled it out in midfield, and neither could help the other. Manchester United is going to reach the final, and Barcelona can't afford to lose, even Ronaldinho, who is usually a little slack, has run a lot more, and if he doesn't prove himself again, he may have to follow in the footsteps of his predecessor Ronaldo and be driven out of Camp Nou, but he then failed to break through with the ball twice, because the Manchester United players defended him too tightly.
Of course, Dong Fangzhuo's side is too, Thuram has been liberated, and he has almost become a free man in the backfield, he is no longer bound by his position, he only needs to follow Dong Fangzhuo now, as long as Dong Fangzhuo enters the area of 20 meters outside the big penalty area, he will keep a close eye on Dong Fangzhuo, no matter which direction Dong Fangzhuo appears.
"Thuram is a bit extreme about Dong's defence now, he's not a centre-back anymore, he's a pure man-to-man."
But even so, Dong Fangzhuo still found a way to find a chance to shoot. Just because Thuram has been following him doesn't mean he can't find a chance.
Because
Thuram wasn't fast enough, strong enough, not high enough for him to jump high, and besides, he was always lonely, and Puyol couldn't always be able to match him.
In the 15th minute, Rooney shook Zambrotta with continuous small steps on the left side, Zambrotta behaved cautiously, and then Rooney resolutely crossed, Dong Fangzhuo took Thuram to swim outside the big penalty area as always, but finally suddenly accelerated and rushed into the middle of the big penalty area!
Of course, Thuram and Puyol know what Dong Fangzhuo is going to do, but the terrible thing is that Rooney's pass and Dong Fangzhuo's sprint distance is really a bit big, usually other strikers even if they sprint to grab the point, they will rush three or five meters, but these two guys cooperated, Dong Fangzhuo actually rushed more than ten meters in order to be able to grab this point!
Smack-
In the embarrassment of Thuram and Puyol, Dong Fangzhuo still stuck his head forward first and pushed it to the ball. In a hurry, Puyol crashed into Dong Fangzhuo.
Because of such a little change, Dong Fangzhuo's header accuracy changed, and the ball flew out of the bottom line when the ball rubbed the post.
"Woohoo!"
"I almost got in!"
"Puyol is suspected of some fouls......"
"These two men's defense against Dong has escalated. If they don't work hard, it is estimated that Dong will score again. ”
"But Rooney's passing and Dong's grabbing are really beautiful, everyone thinks that Dong and Ronaldo's cooperation is the most perfect, in fact, Rooney and Dong have also formed a pretty good tacit understanding, and the trident is also a whole, not just two people."
Subsequently, Barcelona also played a delicate counter-attack. Valdés handed the ball to Xavi, Xavi crossed diagonally to the right, Messi finally got a chance, he swished with the ball and rushed up, Rooney chased more than ten meters behind, but found himself being pulled farther and farther, Scholes sprinted to help defend, Messi accelerated again, easily dribbled through the Manchester United half, and then swept the cross, Gudjohnsen leaked in the middle, and the ball finally came to Ronaldinho.
Ronaldinho, who saw the ball, didn't ink again!
I'm going to shoot!
Taking advantage of the fact that the United players did not come together, he fired a fierce shot directly from 25 yards on the left.
Bang!
The ball hit the billboard on the bottom line and deflected off the ......
call
call
call
Ronaldinho gasped for breath, thinking that he had fought hard just now in order to play this counterattack.
Is he old?
Not old.
It's just that he has rarely passed so fast in normal times, and in the face of the battle of life and death, he must show more than usual......
His forehead was already covered with sweat, but he didn't know which ones were cold sweat......
