Chapter 583: Undefeated in 17 rounds
Beep
At half-time, Manchester United led Manchester City 2-0.
In the first half, Manchester United's technical statistical advantage was not obvious, but the midfield was solid, just right to catch the opponent's two defensive errors to score, as Lineker said, Manchester United have the top players, while Manchester City did not, this subtle difference, perhaps led to the difference in the number of goals.
Schmeichel, who has played for both clubs, was also in the stands at Old Trafford and sat with another Manchester United legend, Cancheski. The two of them were talking and laughing in the stands.
"Why did Weffo go?"
"Weffo should have been injured, but I didn't see anything wrong in the first half. Pierce had no choice but to make a substitution. Swede Isaksen, who moved in for £2 million in the summer, made his debut for Manchester City. ”
As soon as the game resumed, Ronaldo attacked on the right side, using a long-range shot to test Isaksen, Isakson also held the ball in his arms very steadily, did not disappoint the Manchester City fans, and immediately threw the ball to Reina, Reina stuffed it straight to Barton, Barton stopped and took the ball all the way to the left side, and then crossed with his left foot, Corradi in the middle rushed to the front and nodded the ball, the ball flew to the near corner, Van der Sar flew out with one palm, but the danger was not cleared, Neville kicked the ball to the edge of the penalty area, Scholes hesitated and wanted to wait for the ball to hit the ground, but Irish poked his head out bravely, took the lead to clear the ball, and then volleyed with his left foot!
Bang –
The ball pressed against the turf and went straight to the near corner again.
Van der Sar made another brilliant save, this time holding the ball firmly in his arms.
"God,"
"Is it because Schmeichel is sitting in the stands that even Van der Sar's saving ability has been blessed?"
"This ball, if you change it to other goalkeepers, it is estimated that it will not be able to hold it."
Scholes beckoned, re-got the ball, and then stuffed it to Modric, Modric walked with the ball for more than ten meters, quickly crossed the middle line, Vassell was just about to be close, Modric sent a direct pass, the ball flew from the right side of Dunn, Dong Fangzhuo quickly pulled away from Dunn from the left side, led the ball into the penalty area, did not make any adjustments, and volleyed directly with his left foot into the near corner!
The whole action is done in one go.
Smack-
A powerful shot from 19 yards was saved by Isaksen, and Ryan Giggs quickly followed up the middle, but actually made a shot from 11 yards that was incredibly wide!
"Ah, it's harder for this ball to not go in than it is to get in!"
"But Dunn doesn't seem to be able to keep an eye on Dong."
Two minutes later, Dong Fangzhuo played the ball to Giggs again, and Giggs's left-footed volley from 15 yards on the left side of the box was tipped over the crossbar by Isaksen.
'It's Ryan Giggs' birthday, he needs a goal, he has a strong desire to shoot and of course he's very sharp in his breakthroughs.
In the 58th minute, Ryan Giggs crossed from the left, and Ronaldo rushed to the front post 12 yards to head wide, wasting an assist from Giggs. City counter-attacked, Vassell crossed and Elland fired wide from 30 yards out in the middle.
"I don't understand why Pierce used Vassell as a full-back in this game, obviously he is a striker, and he has to let people play left wing-back."
Then Corradi elbowed Vidic in the middle of the ball and was booked, Modric's scheduling in the midfield was very flexible, in the 62nd minute, Ronaldo received a cross from Modric on the right side of the penalty area, swept the ball directly to the middle, Giggs from 12 yards lack of angle low shot was confiscated by Isaksen.
In the 66th minute, Giggs made a direct pass, and Dong Fangzhuo's left-footed volley from the edge of the middle of the penalty area was saved by Isaksen. The ball still fell to the feet of Giggs, who crossed from the left again, Dong Fangzhuo flew up and stabbed his right foot from 4 yards in the middle, and the ball was bravely blocked by the Swedish goalkeeper.
"Whew......"
"It's incredible, Isaacsen is so brave that this ball can be blocked!"
"If it weren't for him, Manchester United would have taken a big lead, and Pierce has picked up a treasure. It is said that the goalkeeper of the weak team, Isaksen only took less than twenty minutes to show his talent. ”
Dunn glanced at his new teammates in embarrassment, and he was a little embarrassed, and his poor performance made Isakson brave.
Giggs took a corner, Isakson made a decisive attack, took the ball directly from the top of Dong Fangzhuo's head, and did not give his teammates a chance to show at all.
Holy, this guy.
Dong Fangzhuo was surprised by Isakson's performance, and if he continued to shoot, he would set his own record for the number of shots on goal......
He rarely misses so many opportunities, but this Isakson's performance is too perverted, it is simply against the sky.
Isakson's magic also brought good fortune to Manchester City, who personally launched a counter-attack, throwing the ball to Barton, who crossed diagonally to the right, Erland broke through on the right and returned the ball on the right, Trabelsi shook off Ferdinand on the edge of the box on the right and fired a left-footed volley into the bottom edge of the crossbar. It was the Tunisian's first goal since joining Manchester City on a free transfer.
"Isaacsen,"
'Man City have come out strong because of Isaksen.
'It's 2-1, Manchester United are only one goal ahead.'
"Manchester City won't equalise, will they?"
Ferguson didn't dare to be careless and began to put Smith on the pitch, replacing Scholes and replacing Carrick with Fletcher to strengthen the defence. However, the Reds did not stop attacking. In the 74th minute, Modric made a direct pass, and Giggs stopped the ball on the left side, changed direction and rushed to the middle from 25 yards and volleyed high with his left foot.
City began to play behind the United defence, but several long balls over the top were unsuccessful until the 79th minute, when Corradi's header from 14 yards was deflected wide by Samaras, who pulled to the right and crossed from the right.
Dong Fangzhuo almost pulled back to the edge of the box to assist the team's defence, and Van der Sar's baseline ball happened to pass to him, and he barely observed the ball to steam it into the left. It's a passing that doesn't come out of nowhere, it's normal for the first team at Manchester United, and there's always someone running to that position to catch the ball, and then there's a fast figure on the left, who unloads the ball with his left foot and immediately rushes straight with the ball.
"Ryan!"
"Ryan!"
"Ryan!"
"He went from first gear to fifth gear quickly!"
"Oh, he smashed the ball past the Manchester City right-back, into the left side of the penalty area, and passed!"
"Ronaldo!"
"Ronaldo!"
"Ronaldo scored his 13th league goal with a right-footed volley from five yards out!"
'Ryan Giggs didn't take credit and passed the ball to Ronaldo at the last minute, 3-1, and United re-established a huge lead, and basically, City had few chances.
Ten minutes later......
