Restricted Superstar

Back in the locker room, Ferguson did not criticize the players. There is no better way to face the dense defense. Ferguson only asked the three frontcourt players Fletcher, Gao Xiaodong and Rooney to play more patiently and not to use long shots. As the only weapon to break dense defenses.

After ordering the three top cards in the team, Ferguson called Valencia, Park Ji-sung and the two full-backs over again, let them make more inward cuts when they go to the bottom, pass in the inverted triangle, or pass the ground ball into the penalty area. Don't just pass the ball.

Ferguson observed for 45 minutes. The tactical deployment must be very targeted, but the opponent has shrunk to his own 30-meter area to defend. No matter how good the tactics are, I can't say that they can be executed in place. These more require the presence of players. Play, for the game, in fact, the head coach does not necessarily play more role than the players.

In the first half of the battle between Gao Xiaodong and Fletcher, Ferguson naturally knew that it was impossible for a team with more than two dozen people to be completely one minded. As long as it does not affect the team's victory, Ferguson does not want to interfere. He believes that the true leader of the team is the one who can stand out in this competition.

The intermission time ended quickly and returned to the court again. Manchester United's offense was much more patient than the first half. The midfield began to cooperate. Rooney resisted and returned to the midfielder. Hernandez waited for the opportunity to move and respond. With the pass of Rooney or Gao Xiaodong, the three formed an offensive triangle.

Although Gao Xiaodong and Rooney are not good people, they and Hernandez did not cooperate for a short time and did not have a tacit understanding. They did not succeed in several cooperations, but they finally started to do infiltration and cooperation, because the Rangers did not fight back. The ability of Manchester United can attack regardless of efficiency. As long as they succeed once, they will be able to win. If they face a strong team, this style of play will be fatal.

Manchester United penetrated in the frontcourt, Fletcher couldn't get in. He was a defensive player. Manchester United's penetration was not reliable. Fletcher easily did not dare to press too far forward.

In the 50th minute of the game, Rooney took the ball with his back and passed the ball to Gao Xiaodong on his back. Although Rooney was pulled down, Hernandez ran out of the open position. Gao Xiaodong took the lead when the defensive player arrived. With a straight plug, Little Pea took the ball and drove into the penalty area.

Manchester United's cooperation was perfect, but the Rangers had too many people inside and outside the penalty area. The central defender stabbed him. Although he didn't stabbed him, he gave the goalkeeper a chance to strike. Gregor flew to hold the ball in his arms.

Manchester United's penetration in the center forced the Rangers to draw in, which also gave Manchester United's wide players room for breakthroughs.

In the 53rd minute of the game, Gao Xiaodong split the side and Valencia quickly went to the bottom. Left back Broadford quickly returned to the side to defend it was too late and was cut into the penalty area by Valencia.

Broadford wanted to stop, but he was not firmly established and was wiped off the bottom line by Valencia.

Valencia didn't have the angle to shoot, but he didn't like to shoot, and he went straight to the top of the arc in the penalty area.

Gao Xiaodong broke free from the opponent's pull and ran over to shoot, but Rooney in the penalty area touched the ball. Gao Xiaodong took a kick and the ball flew behind him. Fletcher drew a kick to the defender and flew out of the sideline.

Manchester United sent out the ball to continue the siege. Gao Xiaodong saw the Rangers pay attention to defending his left side, so he passed the ball to Park Ji-sung and asked Park Ji-sung to attack from the right.

Park Ji-sung wants to break through Papa from the side with the ball, but Papa is fast and defensively. Park Ji-sung is past his peak again and understands that there is a big gap. When he receives the ball, Papa has already arrived and is blocked. Park Ji-sung can only post back.

The ball reached Fletcher's feet, Fletcher passed the ball to Valencia, and the Ecuadorian winger made a quick breakthrough along the right side.

Defending his left back, Broadford saw the opportunity to make a horizontal shovel.

Broadford's judgment was accurate. He tackled the ball, but Valencia's left foot was caught between the two legs by Broadford.

Valencia's speed was extremely fast, and Broadford was pinched like a scissor foot, and his left ankle immediately deformed. Immediately, Valencia fell to the ground in pain.

The moment Valencia fell to the ground, he realized that he was seriously injured, and while howling in pain, he pointed at his ankle.

Broadford looked at Valencia's ankle that was almost ninety degrees in shock, and even forgot to call the team doctor.

Naismith, who also came to defend, woke up for the first time, and he quickly called the team doctor into the field.

The on-site commentator Martin exclaimed, "God! Look at his ankle! It must be broken! It's cruel! England international Zamora also suffered misfortune last week, this time it's Valencia's turn!"

Ferguson is very anxious. Valencia is now his main force for Manchester United. If he is injured, it will have a great impact on Manchester United. He also rushed into the stadium with the team doctor.

The Manchester United team doctor looked at Valencia's injury, immediately put on a respirator for Valencia, after a simple treatment, lifted off the field, and then called an ambulance to the hospital for treatment.

The scene of Valencia's broken leg was so terrifying that the TV director did not even broadcast the slow motion because of the consideration of the TV audience.

All this happened too suddenly. Many young players, including Gao Xiaodong, were stunned when they saw a player's broken leg on the spot for the first time.

The teenager Smalling shivered and kept saying: "It's terrible! It's terrible!"

Vidic put his hand on Smalling's shoulder and said calmly: "This is football! It is impossible to not get injured at all. Since you have chosen football, you must be fearless."

While speaking, Vidic also looked at Gao Xiaodong, "The Premier League is the most competitive league in the world. Whoever wants to succeed here needs hard work, even sweat and blood."

Gao Xiaodong felt a little horrified just now, but he was not afraid at all. He had super protective equipment to protect him, and he was a very strong person. It would be very difficult for him to be injured unless the muscles were strained and his upper body was injured. .

After hearing Vidic's seemingly pointed words, Gao Xiaodong clenched his fists and said viciously: "The captain is right. We must not be afraid. I don't believe they are not afraid of breaking their legs."

Vidic wanted to take the opportunity to call Gao Xiaodong to prevent him from being too young and frivolous, to watch the Premier League too easily. He did not expect Gao Xiaodong to react so strongly, and quickly said: "The other party did not intend to waste people, the head coach and head of the Rangers. The relationship is very good."

Gao Xiaodong said passionately: "I know, but we can't be afraid, just do it, and we can't persuade it."

Vidic nodded in satisfaction and said: "Yes! Can't be counseled."

Valencia's injury delayed more than five minutes, and then after Ferguson replaced the veteran Giggs, the game continued.

Gao Xiaodong is not afraid, but looking at the tragic situation of Valencia's broken leg, even if the players of Manchester United are not afraid, even if they are old players, they can't help but hide when their opponents shovel. This is a psychological shadow, and it is not eliminated at once. of.

As the saying goes, when the brave wins on a narrow road, the more Manchester United players hide, the stronger the Rangers' players play. Soon they won a lot of ball rights and played several good counterattacks.

Gao Xiaodong feels that at this time he must stand up and encourage his teammates, otherwise I am afraid that today's game will not be won.

This is Gao Xiaodong's Champions League debut at Manchester United. He doesn't want to end in a draw or lose.

In the 72nd minute of the game, Rooney passed back to Gao Xiaodong. Rangers midfielder Davis took a flying shovel to steal. Gao Xiaodong did not dodge, first pushed the ball away before jumping up.

Gao Xiaodong jumped half a step too late. Although Davis retracted his feet, he still knocked over to the ground.

CCTV’s live commentator, He Hui, was frightened and shouted, “Xiaodong! You can’t do this! What about a draw! Don’t get hurt!

The Manchester United fans at the scene also gave out exclamations and asked the referee to give Davis a yellow card.

The referee Debrak ignored the pressure of the fans and only awarded a free kick.

Positioning is also a good way to break the dense defense. Vidic and Smalling both came to the penalty area to fight for the header.

Gao Xiaodong passed a free kick into the penalty area, which was a bit close to the goalkeeper and was punched out of the penalty area by Gregor.

Gao Xiaodong quickly followed up and volleyed before the ball hits the ground, but the ball was thrown out by the goalkeeper again.

After getting the ball, Giggs quickly went to the bottom. After attracting the Rangers to the penalty area, he passed it back to the front of the penalty area to find Gao Xiaodong.

Gao Xiaodong kept up with the shot, and Papage stepped over to block Gao Xiaodong's shot, but Gao Xiaodong didn't dodge, and kicked past Papage's studs.

Bang!

The ball hit Papachi's spikes and exploded directly, and Papachi was also hit back a few steps, sitting on the ground with his butt, so pain that he couldn't stand up with his legs.

"God! The ball burst!"

"Oh my God! Is the high foot broken?"

"Is this desperate? God! Don't get hurt!"

...

Manchester United fans were so scared that they dared not look at Gao Xiaodong. They were worried about another fracture, but he didn't expect that Gao Xiaodong had nothing to do and raised his hands to ask for the ball off the court.

"Too fierce! A hunk!"

"Desperate Saburo!"

"The Red Devils are going to be like Gao! Don't persuade! Just do it!"

"This is the spirit of the Red Devil!"

...

The fans in the stands at Old Trafford were excited by Gao Xiaodong, and they all stood up and applauded for Gao Xiaodong.

The big guys from Manchester United on the field and on the bench all looked at each other with admiration on their faces, especially Neville. He felt that Gao Xiaodong really did what he said to be a Red Devils, first of all, there must be kind. 8)
