Chapter 135 still has to be on the head

The midday sun of winter in England hung obliquely on the clouds to the south, shining through the top of Old Trafford and sprinkled on the red stands, making the fiery stadium look even hotter. However, at this moment, the emotions of the fans in the stands have fallen to freezing point..........

Manchester United fans watched everything that was happening on the pitch with wide glasses, and even many fans were a little glazed.

In order to take care of the fans in Asia, the FA will arrange some games to be played in the morning, so that East and Southeast Asia will watch the games in the golden period of the evening, while England will only play at noon.

It's just over one o'clock in the afternoon, and many fans have taken advantage of the halftime break to go out and buy some burgers, fish nuggets, and chips for their lunch.

However, at this time, Manchester United fans are obviously not in the mood to eat, and this season's non-stop victories will never imagine such a scene when they step on the field. So far this season, United haven't lost on their home turf!

"It's two to zero!! Arsenal took a 2-0 lead at Manchester United!! I think I have to remind everyone again that the last time the two sides met, Arsenal also had a 2-0 lead, but then Li Qingshan scored a hat-trick to help Manchester United overtake the score!! This time, can Manchester United still do it! Can Li Qingshan still do it? ”

The commentator didn't go back to pay attention to the lost Manchester United fans, and he continued to say non-stop.

"I wouldn't say Manchester United can't do it, are there fewer miracles happening on the football pitch? Manchester United won the treble in 1999 when they scored twice in stoppage time to win the title against Bayern Munich. Liverpool came from three goals down in the first half before equalising in the second half before beating AC Milan on penalties. Such a miracle is called in our ears. ”

"But the miracle is a miracle because it is so unlikely that it will happen. As it stands, it's the sixty-third minute of the second half, and there are still almost thirty minutes to go. Scoring two goals in 30 minutes doesn't look too difficult, especially for Manchester United. But will Arsenal repeat the same mistakes they made the last time they met? Now Arsenal's morale is high, and the Manchester United players who have been hit in a row can still organize an attack to break through Arsenal's defense? I doubt it! ”

Arsenal's celebrations continued, with Arsene Wenger and his players hugging each other, both on the pitch and on the bench.

On the other side, Carlo Ancelotti was ready to make a substitution.

When he was one goal down, Ancelotti could still sit firmly on the Diaoyu Tai, but now he is two goals behind!

The last time the two-goal deficit was reversed, it was with Li Qingshan's outburst. But Carlo Ancelotti knows he can't solve the problem every time with the burst of stars.

Now that the substitution is made, it is natural to strengthen the attack!

Rooney had already put on his blue vest and ran to the sidelines to warm up.

Rooney's hair transplant in October last year didn't look very successful, and now it's almost gone, but at this moment, Lu Xiaopang didn't bother to see the top of his scalp again. Falling out of his hair is not a big deal, his place in the team is what Rooney cares about.

Since Juan Mata recovered from injury, Rooney has become a rotation player again, although Manchester United has a dense schedule in the second half of the season, Rooney still got some opportunities to play, but for the British number one Lu Xiaopang, just a rotation substitute player, how can he satisfy his ambitions.

However, Rooney no longer regards Li Qingshan as his competitor - even if he returns to his peak form, he may not be able to compete with Li Qingshan in the position of center forward.

The one who Rooney really sees as a rival is Mata, or Di Maria. There are only three front-court attackers in total, and since Li Qingshan is definitely not competitive, there are only two positions left to fight for.

However, this is a competition under the current tactical system, and if Ancelotti changes tactics and changes formation, then Rooney also has a chance to play.

Just like now, in order to strengthen the attack, Ancelotti came on Rooney and replaced Kramer.

Replace one man from midfield, bring on Wayne Rooney, and add an attacker up front. At this time, Manchester United's formation became 4231, Herrera and Fellaini formed a double midfield, while Rooney was behind Li Qingshan, as a forward or shadow striker.

"After playing on the field, move more into the penalty area, tell everyone to seek more opportunities to cross on both sides, and when you cross on both sides, you must appear in the penalty area to draw the opponent's defensive attention for Li Qingshan! If you have the chance, you can try a long shot! Carlo Ancelotti told Rooney before he came on.

Rooney nodded, not at all dissatisfied because he went to help Li Qingshan.

When Kramer ran to the sidelines, Rooney couldn't wait to give him a high-five and rush onto the court.

……….

"Manchester United are going to make a substitution! Wayne Rooney came on and he came on for Kramer!! Manchester United continue to intensify their attack!! ”

Manchester United fans in the stands also applauded Wayne Rooney's arrival. Now United have 30 minutes to get the score back!

Arsene Wenger didn't get back to his place, he was still on the sidelines.

Even if he is already leading 2-0 at this moment, he still does not dare to relax, as long as the referee has not blown the whistle for the end of the game, Arsenal will not be able to win this game.

Laurent !! Keep an eye on it!! Arsene Wenger shouted at Koscielny.

He naturally asked Koscielny to keep an eye on Li Qingshan, and Rooney's current threat was far less than Li Qingshan's. Anyway, as long as Li Qingshan appeared in the front court, Koscielny would not dare to relax his guard at all.

Wayne Rooney came on and replaced a midfielder, and while that could put more pressure on Arsenal's defence, it wasn't an opportunity for Arsenal. The opponent is on a person in the back waist position, and the coverage is naturally not so large. Moreover, sometimes just stacking up strikers in the front court does not necessarily achieve good results.

After taking a two-goal lead, Arsenal shrank back and concentrated on the counter-attack. They have already scored two goals with quick counter-attacks and will naturally be hoping to replicate their success.

And for Manchester United, there is not much choice left, to win, you have to attack!

So Carlo Ancelotti waved his hands on the sidelines and shouted: "Press!!" Press-on!! ”

…………..

Manchester United really pressed on all fronts, even Marouane Fellaini and Herrera pressed into the 30-meter area of the opponent.

And what about Arsenal?

Not long after Manchester United brought on Wayne Rooney, Arsene Wenger also made a change.

Defensive midfielder Elneny came on to replace French striker Olivier Giroud, who had a mediocre performance in the game. Now Arsenal is left with only Sanchez as the striker who remains in the front line. After Giroud was substituted, Sanchez was quite free to move, and he almost became a free man up front, with him visible on the left, in the middle and on the right.

Arsenal are now in full force and have almost reverted to their form in the first half, just to survive the dozens of minutes of the second half.

Arsenal's mentality is different now than in the first half, and now they are all about keeping the win, even if it is to defend it all the way.

If the stubborn defense in the first half made them see no hope and just passively follow the manager's instructions, then now, the Arsenal players are actively engaged in defense, because now they see the hope of winning this game!!

As long as they defend and stay through the rest of the second half, the victory will be theirs!!

And they don't necessarily have to be a threat to United's goal just because they hold on. Sanchez is still at the forefront. Now Manchester United dare not relax Sanchez, who has already scored a brace in this game, and wherever he goes, there are Manchester United players who take care of him.

Li Qingshan did not stay in the penalty area all the time, and after Rooney came on the field, Li Qingshan and he kept switching positions before and after.

Now the penalty area is full of Arsenal defenders, and it is difficult for Manchester United players to pass the ball to the penalty area, so Li Qingshan, Rooney and Di Maria Mata cover each other, play each other's balls, and try to disrupt Arsenal's defense.

However, when it comes to the real threat, Li Qingshan is still bigger when he is in the penalty area, after all, he is a powerful center forward, and in a dense defensive environment like the penalty area, strength is sometimes better than skill.

In the 69th minute, Di Maria dribbled the ball from the side to the middle and passed the ball to Li Qingshan's feet.

Li Qingshan turned his back to the goal and stepped on the ball at his feet.

Koscielny was firmly stuck behind him, and Paulista tried to squeeze Li Qingshan away with his shoulder, but Li Qingshan did not move. Li Qingshan then flicked the ball to the side and forced a turn to shoot, but Koscielny interfered with the ball and shot it wide.

The role of a tall centre-forward in the box is the ultimate - using his physical strength to create space for himself to shoot. If Li Qingshan didn't have a strong body, he would have been knocked down by Paulista in the first hit. And now that an untouchable centre-forward has the ball in the box, it seems that there is little other way than to let him shoot and foul him.

Arsene Wenger stood on the sidelines with a frown. He also has no good way to limit Li Qingshan, this time he didn't score, it doesn't mean that he won't be able to score next time, if Li Qingshan always shoots like this, he can always find a goal.

Wenger rubbed his hands anxiously, then pulled up his sleeves and looked at the time.

There were about twenty-three or four minutes left before the end of the game, and if possible, he wanted the referee to blow the whistle immediately.

But this is impossible, Arsenal will have to withstand the impact of Li Qingshan for more than 20 minutes.

If Manchester United are scored in this time period, it is difficult to say whether they can keep the win.

Arsene Wenger continues to make substitutions!

Flanimi comes on for Welbeck!! Continue to strengthen the defense in midfield!

Since there is no good way to deal with Li Qingshan himself, then he can only start with his teammates, only to isolate Li Qingshan as much as possible, so that he can't get the pass from his teammates, and in the absence of a teammate's pass, his threat will be minimized.

Carlo Ancelotti was also a little anxious, with twenty minutes left in the game, and United were still two goals behind.

The body movements on the sidelines also exposed Ancelotti's anxious mood at the moment, after Li Qingshan's shot missed, Ancelotti leaned back regretfully, and almost fell on the sidelines - if it weren't for the quick help of Ryan Giggs behind him.

Manchester United are desperate to score, and Arsenal are now desperate to stop Manchester United from scoring! They only need to hold on to a 2-0 lead for another ten minutes and United may wilt on their own!

……..

This time, Li Qingshan pulled down a kick from outside the penalty area, and the football was saved by a side pounce by Cech, giving Manchester United a corner.

The forbidden area suddenly became a world of masters.

All the tall players of Manchester United, except for De Gea, are concentrated in the Arsenal penalty area, Li Qingshan, Hummels, Rojo, Fellaini, even Rooney, can only run to the front point, playing a feint role, in Manchester United's corner kick tactics, it is still mainly relied on the heads of these players over 190 centimeters.

Li Qingshan stood on the line of the big penalty area, beside him, Arsenal's two central defenders followed him inch by inch, everyone knew who was the core of Manchester United's corner kick tactics, and his header was too powerful.

"Watch out for the defensive nine!! Don't let him rush in!! ”

Under Petr's command, Corcoran also lowered the defensive area where he was standing and ran to Li Qingshan's side.

Now that there are three defenders around Li Qingshan, Cech is slightly relieved. No matter how powerful Li Qingshan's header is, the accuracy of the ball is not much higher when he is disturbed, not to mention that three players are staring at him.

While the other tall United players were also on target, the rest of the Arsenal players were looking after key areas, and the dim-tall Alexis Sanchez returned to the box to take part in the corner, standing next to the post.

When Di Maria stood in the corner flag area and raised his arms, Rooney, who was in front of him, suddenly ran straight towards Di Maria.

Want to kick a tactical corner?

The Arsenal players did not dare to slack off, and Ramsey, who was guarding the front post, chased after Rooney's ass.

Just then, Di Maria kicked the ball out.

However, instead of a boccia ball passed to Rooney, it was kicked directly into the air, and the ball arced and flew into the box.

Li Qingshan leaned back, making Koscielny, who was staring at him, stunned, and followed Li Qingshan like an arrow from the string, straight into the front point!!

"Follow up with him!!"

Koscielny and the others gritted their teeth and chased after them.

Ramsey, who was defending the front post, was pulled out by Wayne Rooney, and now the closest to this position is Sanchez, who is standing next to the post.

Sanchez gritted his teeth and rushed over.

Di Maria's ball is not high, Li Qingshan does not need to jump to reach this ball, because he played a time difference, at this moment only Sanchez can interfere with him head-on.

Sanchez was about to jump up, but even if he jumped to Li Qingshan, Li Qingshan still stood firmly on the ground, resisted Sanchez's impact, and then shook his head!!

The football was rubbed to the front by him............

Cech flew up, but all he could see was the shadow of the football, and a gust of wind flew over his arm.........

"Ball....Goal !!"

After finishing the ball, Li Qingshan knelt on his knees and slid to the sidelines!!

He kept his head in a head-shaking position and watched the ball fly into the goal!!

When he turned his head, the flashing lights of the guns and cannons of the photographers behind the billboard flashed.......
