Chapter 8 Experimental Formations

However, what reassures Ancelotti is that Li Qingshan's form is still very good, as long as Li Qingshan maintains the same form he has in these two seasons at Atletico Madrid, Ancelotti is sure to break his wrists in the Premier League and other strong teams.

In the second half, Carlo Ancelotti made a big substitution.

Reserve goalkeeper John Stone was given the chance to play, and almost all of the players in the back line were replaced, with Ashley coming on at left wing-back. Young, it seems that Carlo Ancelotti still likes to change the winger to full-back, and the right wing-back has come up with a real player, and Rafael has been given the opportunity to play.

In the center-back combination, Phil Jones partnered with teenager Blackett.

In the midfield combination, Fellaini came on to replace Herrera, while new signing Kramer, Ancelotti obviously gave him more opportunities to adapt.

There were no changes in the front, with Nani coming on for Wayne Rooney, Juan Mata playing in the midfield position and Nani on the right wing.

In terms of formation, the 4231 system is still maintained.

Nani played in a different way than Juan Mata, and after he came on, United's crosses from the right started to increase.

Replaced most of the team, but Manchester United's attack power did not decrease, and at the beginning of the second half, Li Qingshan received Nani's cross from the right side of the horizon ball and protected the ball in the penalty area, and then accurately sent the ball to the feet of Di Maria, who pushed the left foot into the net.

After this goal, Li Qingshan assisted his teammates again, Di Maria crossed a high ball from the left, Li Qingshan nodded the ball a little forward, and Mata scored in the empty position.

Two goals in the first half and two assists in the second. Ancelotti couldn't help but applaud Li Qingshan's performance off the field.

And the Manchester United fans in the stands are obviously very happy to watch.

Carlo Ancelotti then continued to make substitutions, with Michael Carrick coming on to replace Juan Mata, who had just scored. Then there was a change in the formation of Manchester United.

Carrick formed a back three with Marouane Fellaini and Kramer, while Nani and Di Maria moved slightly into the middle.

4321, Christmas tree formation. Ancelotti's triumph.

In AC Milan, Ancelotti defeated Liverpool in the Champions League final with his 4321 tactical system and successfully avenged Istanbul.

In the 2007 Champions League final, Carlo Ancelotti used the most standard Christmas tree formation, with four defenders lined up at the back, and both defenders had to have good assist ability, as well as important defensive responsibilities; In the back three, Andrea Pirlo is the brain center of the whole team, responsible for the important task of organizing the attack, and Gattuso and Ambrosini around him are also crucial in protecting him during the game; The two strikers are both stunning, not only can send sharp passes for the forward, Seedorf's long-range shot, Kaka's breakthrough are all the opponent's taboo weapons, and striker Inzaghi will complete the final fatal blow in the penalty area.

And now Ancelotti's Christmas tree, due to the different characteristics of the players, so the way of attacking is of course different. Di Maria and Nani both have good ability to break through and advance with the ball, plus striker Li Qingshan's deterrence against the opponent's goal. In this way, there is a lot of room for the two full-backs on the wing to insert assists.

After the change, United scored again, Nani dribbled forward in the middle, and as Li Qingshan and Di Maria restrained most of the opponent's defensive energy, Nani was given the opportunity to shoot with his feet from outside the box.

Nani shoots from distance!

Before the end, Ashley. Li Qingshan headed past the opposition with another cross from the wing, completing his hat-trick in his first game for Manchester United's first team.

Manchester United's first warm-up game of the new season was a 6-0 victory, and such a hearty attack made Manchester United fans suffer from a long period of drought, although it was only a warm-up game, but it still made the fans excited.

Because although Louis van Gaal's side finished fourth in the Premier League last season, Manchester United did not look good at all last season, many games were 1-0, and there were quite a lot of draws, 0-0, 1-1, such scores are not uncommon, and Old Trafford's passion seems to be hypnotized by such a bad attacking model.........

Carlo Ancelotti didn't feel much happy, for him it was just an ordinary warm-up game, and the strength of the Mexican América team was really too weak compared to Manchester United.

That score doesn't say much about it.

The International Champions Cup has a very dense schedule and there are no substitutions, so there is no pressure on the team.

Manchester United's second international title fixture will take us to the eastern United States, travelling to San Jose in the southern San Francisco Bay Area in California to face Major League Soccer side San Jose Earthquakes at Ameva Stadium.

In this game, Ancelotti experimented with more game formations and personnel combinations, but what remained unchanged was that Li Qingshan still played the whole game. Ancelotti announced to the team in this way: Li Qingshan is the absolute core main player on the field!

For this, other Manchester United players have no opinion, first, Li Qingshan's perverted body in training can make Manchester United players very admired, and they also have enough strength to occupy the main position of the only center forward.

In this game, Hernandez, a young pea who returned to the team from a loan spell at Real Madrid, got a chance to play. Around Li Qingshan, Hernandez's performance looked like a fish in water.

With his ghostly movement and ability to take chances, Hernandez scored twice in the first half to give his team a 2-0 lead.

However, after a change of formation in the second half, Hernandez was substituted.

In the second half, Li Qingshan scored a penalty in the penalty area, and finally Manchester United won 3-0 in the second warm-up game.

With two games in a row by big scores, the United players are in a pretty good mood.

But Ancelotti understands that neither opponent is strong, and neither of these two wins is very high.

The real test for Manchester United will be the next two warm-up games. They are against Barcelona on July 26 and Paris Saint-Germain on July 30.

Only in direct dialogue with such a European giant, can we really test the strength of the current Manchester United team under Ancelotti.
