Chapter 248 Free Kick Tactics

It was as if all of a sudden the game had turned into a fierce battle.

The fans on both sides were still very unhappy with the dull game before, but now they are all nervous.

Because the situation at this time is too exciting for the fans on both sides.

Manchester United seemed to be on the verge of scoring at any moment, and Barcelona's attack seemed to have an immediate effect.

Seventy-three minutes into the game, Di Maria was tripped by Rakitic from the side when he cut inside on the left side and cut to the ribs.

Manchester United were awarded a free-kick on the edge of the Barcelona penalty area.

This free kick is in a good position, it can be shot directly at the goal, about 278 meters away from the goal, not too far, very suitable for power, and there is no need to worry about being too close. After the football rises, it flies directly out of the bottom line without falling distance.

However, the ball can actually go to the penalty area and let the players in the box fight for the top.

The choice depends on what the player who takes the free kick does.

Di Maria and Juan Mata were both in front of the ball and Di Maria's right foot might be a bit more comfortable if he wanted to shoot straight at goal, while Mata was also an option if he wanted to cross into the box.

The two stood in front of the ball for a moment and discussed, then walked away.

Di Maria raised her right hand and made a gesture in her hand.

The Manchester United players in the box immediately understood that this was a tactic! They began to look left and right, observing their surroundings and preparing for the run-up.

The free-kick tactic is a key tactic for Manchester United, so the United are well prepared in this regard.

The Barcelona players were nervous because they didn't know who was going to take the penalty, but since it was Di Maria who raised his hand, it was probably him who was the one who played.

Di Maria can shoot as well as pass the ball, and his big penalty looks a little more threatening.

Sure enough, Mata started running!

The Barcelona players were not wary of this, thinking that Mata's run was just a false shot, and it was Di Maria who eventually kicked the ball out.

It turned out not to be!!

Juan Mata just got the ball up!

"Juan Mata sends in a free-kick!!"

.....

Manchester United fans have high expectations for this free-kick kick, as the Reds have one of the best free-kick attacking capabilities in Europe.

The situation is that both sides were able to create a lot of chances on goal but neither took them.

So at this stage of the game, whoever scores first will be able to take the lead in the final!

It's a natural thing.

That's it!

Countless Manchester United fans roared in their hearts.

Li Qingshan was in the crowd, he was quiet and did not move around the box like other Manchester United players.

However, when Mata was running, Li Qingshan suddenly ran forward.

"Stick to his !!"

Several players from Barcelona also immediately ran with Li Qingshan's run.

But just after Mata kicked the ball up, Li Qingshan suddenly retreated!!

This shook off several defenders, of course, even so, there were still defenders around Li Qingshan.

Pique and Buskes reacted quickly, and they immediately posted it.

But that's when Mata's pass arrived.

Pique and the others, who were shaken by Li Qingshan, reacted half a beat slower, one step slow, one step slow!

So when Li Qingshan jumped, Pique had just rushed over.

However, Li Qingshan did not choose to shoot directly because his angle had been blocked by the goalkeeper.

He jumped from the back post and then headed the ball forward.

The ball flew into the middle of the goal.

Because of Li Qingshan's running, Barcelona's penalty area was in chaos!

The ball that was topped by Li Qingshan just fell at the feet of the central defender Hummels, who participated in the free-kick attack.

Hummels won't let go of this opportunity!

He headed the ball into the Barcelona goal!

The soccer ball hits the net! Manchester United fans leap from the stands!

"The ball went in!! Strike!!!! What a ball!!!!!!! Pretty!!!! Hummels!!!!! ”

Duan Xuan shouted excitedly, "This is Manchester United's first goal of the game, and after the silence of the first half, there is finally a goal on the field!" Manchester United!!! Manchester United lead Barcelona 1-0!! It's been 70 minutes now!! Manchester United scored at this time!! It was a very crucial goal!! If Manchester United don't concede a goal in the next 20 minutes, they will win the title!! Champions League winners!!!!! ”

After the goal, Hummels ran towards Li Qingshan, and the Manchester United players hugged each other, roaring one after another.

This goal was so crucial! This means that the balance of the game has been upset, and Manchester United can play more aggressively in the coming period!

"Wonderful free-kick tactical !!" Andy Gray was full of praise from the stands.

"This is obviously a specially designed routine, Li Qingshan nodded back after faking the run to the middle, and then Hummels inserted in the middle to complete the goal!"

"This goal makes Barcelona completely defenseless, if they defend the middle, then Li Qingshan will directly head the goal, and if most of their players are attracted by Li Qingshan, then the middle will reveal a fatal gap!"

"This is how Manchester United win!! Now the game is on the way for Manchester United!! Barcelona is in trouble! ”

The Catalan TV commentator was also in the stands, and they were silent for a moment before one of the commentators said: "Lost the goal, a free-kick from Manchester United, we made a big mistake in defending the free-kick. But it doesn't matter, we still have time, it's only the 75th minute of the game, and we still have almost 20 minutes to get the goal and equalise as soon as possible! ”

'That's right, we need a goal! We need a player who can score goals for us! ”

"We've got Messi, we've got Iniesta, we've got Neymar, we've got Suarez... They always score goals! "One of the commentators didn't know if he was comforting himself or the Barcelona fans.

Enrique covered his face with his hands on the sidelines, and now this situation is passive for Barcelona, no matter what, they are going to attack.

Enrique did not make any substitutions, as the players on the pitch were already the strongest in Barcelona's squad.

Where else can it be exchanged?

However, Enrique also quickly calmed down.

Even if you want to attack, you can't be blind.
