Chapter 741: A Smooth Start

This game is too important, so after the game starts, both teams play very cautiously, which is also a kind of law of football games, all important games or finals, generally not good. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Of course, the derby is the exception, the Manchester derby is certainly not like this, like the Manchester derby in the first half of the season, where you will be so cautious and careful, you will come up and do it, but this one is very different.

For such an opening, both fans and the media can understand, after all, the ownership of the champion of this game is not as wide as before.

Although the scene was dreary after all, it did not affect the enthusiasm of the fans, whether it was Manchester City or Manchester United fans, this game is not to be missed, and they are all doing their best to cheer for their team at the moment.

The real threat came in the 12th minute from Manchester City, who were playing at home, and Lee Feng drew the attention of Carrick and Park Ji-sung in the middle before splitting the side, and Klicy cut in at high speed.

Silva moved across the middle, but Phil Jones did not follow, and seeing this situation, Clichy immediately decided not to dribble the ball himself.

The unguarded Silva certainly didn't take it lightly, rushing straight into the United penalty area and smashing in before the United defenders could come up.

Silva had a very good shot on goal, but De Gea was also impressive, and this season, the young Spanish goalkeeper withstood the pressure and made one save after another to make the United fans forget about the retired veteran goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar.

If De Gea can continue to improve and perform like this, there is no doubt that the future of the Spanish goalkeeper is extremely bright, and Li Feng knows a little bit about that.

There are two, with Manchester City's attack to start, Manchester United's counterattack is not far away, three minutes later, the game opened to the fifteenth minute, Manchester City returned a kick to the former city brother.

From Carrick's hanging pass, Scholes is a veteran after all, and he has retired and made a comeback, while De Jong is a defensive giant, and in the semi-finals that just ended, De Jong was the man who withstood Xavi.

After an unsuccessful attempt, Paul Scholes stopped and played a pass back to Carrick, who whipped the ball straight past the City midfielder and into the feet of Wayne Rooney.

Although Rooney's goal rate this season is not low, with a total of 26 goals in 35 league games, he is becoming less and less like a striker under Ferguson's tutelage, and he is falling deeper and deeper.

Rooney retreated to get the ball, Lescott naturally had to follow, and when he couldn't turn around, Rooney pushed diagonally, and Rooney obviously trusted the veteran Giggs more than Nani.

It was also a long-range shot, a long-range shot from Ryan Giggs, only Giggs's long-range shot bounced off Kompany's leg and Rooney had already crossed Lescott.

Facing the ball that popped up, Lu Xiaopang was a kick head-on, and Joe Hart was not to be outdone when he saw this, flew up and caught the ball directly with both hands.

Then Manchester United got the first yellow card, from Park Ji-sung, and his foul was Li Feng, this is a football game, in fact, after that meeting, the two are already good friends in private, but in the game, there will be no emotion to talk about.

Of course, Park Ji-sung naturally did not foul maliciously, at most he only committed a deliberate foul, and then Li Feng drove a set-piece, Silva passed diagonally to Aguero, and the latter also passed it to the feet of Dzeko.

The Manchester City striker made a second shot for his team, carrying Rio Ferdinand to finish with a push, but the ball was deflected wide and sent a goal kick to Manchester United.

Once upon a time, Manchester United's backline was a sight to behold across Europe, with Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic ranking in the top three in Europe and even the world.

But now? Rio Ferdinand is 34 years old, and although he is still in good shape, he can't compare with a few years ago, and even Vidic, who is lying on a hospital bed at the moment, is also 31 years old, and the best central defender combination is coming to the end of his career.

Smalling and Evans, who were expected by Ferguson, did not grow up as expected, and it can even be said to be disappointing, and among the current Manchester United backline, Phil Jones is not doing well.

The biggest difference between Manchester United and Manchester City is that Manchester City is now a world of young players, and perhaps it is more appropriate to say that the Mesozoic Generation, after all, like Li Feng is about to be 24 years old.

And Manchester United is still the old guy in charge, maybe Manchester United is now entering a critical moment of renewal, but Ferguson can train this group of young players to be too little to be up to the task, the current situation, full of De Gea and Phil Jones is not bad, and these two are still bought by Ferguson, not cultivated by themselves.

In the 22nd minute, United made a mistake when Smalling, the hapless centre-back made a mistake in returning the ball under pressure from Li Feng and almost passed the ball directly to Dzeko.

Fortunately, Ferdinand was firmly in position, so that Dzeko could not form a single knife, coupled with De Gea's timely attack, Dzeko could only have no choice but to hate.

Ferdinand is not a good temper, in the face of such a mistake, the Manchester United veteran looked hideous and yelled at Morlins, "Oh~~ Smalling, perhaps, Ferguson needs to re-enter the position of central defender this summer?" Even the narrator didn't let Smolin go.

The old Scottish man is also world-famous, in the face of Smalling's mistake, Ferguson did not say anything, still sitting firmly in the coach's seat, but those who are familiar with Ferguson may find that the old Scottish man chews gum much faster than before at this moment.

In the 27th minute, referee Marriner pulled out the second yellow card of the game, but this time it was given to Manchester City, who paid the price of a yellow card in order to stop Rooney from attacking.

I don't know if it's because Lescott hasn't played for too long, after the opening, this guy behaved like a puppet, completely led by Rooney's nose.

Park Ji-sung suddenly plugged in, Park Sanlung is a rare starter in this game, and as of now, Park Ji-sung has not started ten games in the league.

However, when Yaya Toure stopped in front of him, Park Ji-sung wisely chose to pass, the player was on the wing, Nani on the right, and under the defense of Klich, Nani did not get any good chances.

So the cross was passed to Rooney, who easily shook off Lescott with a feint, and Kompany decisively made up for the flying tackle, if it wasn't for Zabaleta's clever retreat into the penalty area, Kompany's flying tackle would not have been as simple as a yellow card. (To be continued.) )
