Chapter 202: One or Two Can Be Three
Chapter 202 can be one or two, but not three
It wasn't easy for Carrick to get the ball down and the Chelsea defence was quick to press out, and by the time Carrick stopped the ball, N'Golo Kante was already in front of him.
Carrick was not flustered, the veteran has a lot of experience in the game, and the most important thing at this time is that he must not lose the ball, because at this time Manchester United's two central defenders are involved in the attack of corner kicks in front.
Carrick turned and played the ball back to goalkeeper David De Gea.
De Gea stomped the ball at his feet and waited until United's defence was back in place, and Chelsea pressed it out at this point, before he drove the ball straight forward with a big foot.
Now that the defenders of Li Qingshan have been replaced by Terry and David Luiz, Terry feels more and more powerless when facing Li Qingshan.
Li Qingshan cushioned the ball to the right side of his chest at the edge of the penalty area, and then burst into the penalty area to the right side!
David Luiz followed closely!
After Li Qingshan entered the penalty area, David Luiz firmly stuck the inside line as the position and drove Li Qingshan to the bottom line and the periphery!
Li Qingshan's several changes in rhythm did not shake off David Luiz, and the Chelsea defender was not as frizzy as before after returning from a trip to Paris.
Li Qingshan simply brought the ball to a position close to the bottom line, and swept the ball towards the Chelsea goal with his right foot!!
"Li Qingshan!! Shot from a tight angle!! ”
When the angle is too small, it is difficult to overcome the goalkeeper's defense, but because Li Qingshan's shot is too powerful, Courtois did not dare to catch the ball with his hands, and in a hurry, he could only block with his feet and put the ball on the other side of the penalty area!!
And on the left, it's the area where Rashford is active!
Marcus Rashford cleverly stepped forward to the back post and fell straight to the ground in the face of Courtois's blocked football!
He shot at the back post near the bottom line, but very close to the goal!
With such a powerful shot, Ancelotti had already jumped up to celebrate at such a close distance, and the football had already flown in front of the goal before the crowd had time to cheer.
That's when Courtois stepped up again and he saved Chelsea.
Courtois made a world-class save as he fell to the ground and tried to widen the area of his defence, at this point he didn't care whether he was using his hands to save the ball or where it would fly after hitting his body, as long as he could get the ball out for the time being, it didn't matter if he touched the ball with any part of his body.
The ball slammed, hit the shoulder and bounced off, and Terry rushed over, jumped high, and pushed the ball off the line!
Courtois!! Terrific!!! Great save !! Andy Gray exclaimed from the commentary bench.
"Manchester United created danger in front of goal again, Li Qingshan's shot from a tight angle forced Courtois to make a save in a panic, the ball hit his foot and flew to the back post, Rashford's shot from a tight angle in the box was blocked by Courtois!!"
"If it weren't for Courtois, Manchester United would have been two goals ahead at this time, and Courtois was in excellent form in today's game!!
The commentators were raving about Courtois's performance, and the Belgian was now quite excited, as he rose from the ground, clenched his fists and roared, which was a morale boost for his team.
Conte is not excited at all, though, as playing for Manchester United at Old Tryford is a very difficult task, and despite Courtois's excellent performance, it is unrealistic to rely on the goalkeeper to win a game.
Courtois can save one or two of the opposition's must-have goals, but he can't be expected to save every goal – he's a man, not a god.
So Chelsea still have to find a way in attack, they must have the ability to threaten Manchester United's goal, so that Manchester United's attack will be fearful!
Marcus Rashford, who did not score, raised his hands in front of his eyes with a look of incredulity.
He felt that his kick must have been yo, and the instep of his foot was solid to mention the ball, but in the face of such a powerful shot, the opponent also saved....
Chelsea fans are all worried about Courtois's good save, but they are also worried about whether Courtois can save every shot, no matter how good he is.
If Chelsea had been pressed by Manchester United, it would have been a matter of time before they conceded.
'Chelsea were very passive during this period and they were completely pinned down by Manchester United. After last season's treble, Manchester United's players are full of confidence, they have a strong psychological advantage against all opponents in the league, although Chelsea have performed well in the league this season, but when they face such an aggressive attack from home to Manchester United, they seem a little less open..."Duan Xuan analyzed.
"Li Qingshan's performance is very good, although he has not had a few shots on goal so far, but most of Manchester United's dangerous attacks are related to him, but I think that as a central striker, Li Qingshan should be alone sometimes! At Manchester United, no one can catch up with him in terms of shooting skills, and if the two shots of Juan Mata or Rashford were completed by Li Qingshan, the result may not be the same!! Duan Xuan is obviously Li Qingshan's brainless fan.
Conte on the sidelines waved his arms in the hope of getting the Chelsea players to get their way up as quickly as possible, but it was clear that the Chelsea players had completely lost their rhythm under pressure from Manchester United.
In the 33rd minute of the game, Manchester United's attack came again!!
Pogba dribbled forward in midfield and got the ball through Marcus Rashford! Marcus Rashford tried to get past Moses but he didn't lose possession and instead played the ball back to Pogba.
Pogba led the ball to his side and made a powerful cross that drew the attention of both N'Golo Kante and Nemanja Matic.
However, Pogba flicked the ball behind him with his right foot.
Sandro is up!!
The Brazilian left-back took one look at the situation in the box and then smashed the ball to his right foot.
The right foot was Sandro's non-main foot, but he still managed to deliver a quality cross!
The soccer ball flew to the back post!!
"Li Qingshan!!!"
In the roar of the commentator, Li Qingshan had already jumped up!!
A powerful header knocked open Courtois.
This time Courtois was helpless.
The ball flew over the tips of his fingers and crashed into the net behind him,
And in the stands behind the net, Manchester United fans leapt to their feet and raised their arms high!
