Football King Bale

On the evening of August 31, 2012, the Louis II Stadium in Monaco was packed with people, where the 2012 European Super Cup will be held.

This is the 15th consecutive UEFA Super Cup held at Stade Louis II, but it is also the last time the UEFA Super Cup is held here. Starting next year, the European Super Cup will be decided by UEFA.

This year's European Super Cup is a civil war in the Premier League, and it is also a showdown between two teams from the same city. This is the second time in the history of the European Super Cup that a civil war has occurred in the same league (the first was Parma vs. AC Milan in 1993), and it is also the first time in the history of the European Super Cup that a derby match has occurred in the same city.

Because of the tit-for-tat confrontation between Manchester United and Manchester City in the Premier League, and the fact that they defeated Manchester United in the Community Shield twenty days ago, Manchester City hopes to defeat Manchester United again and win the third championship trophy this year. Manchester United did not want to lose to their rivals in the same city for the second time in three weeks, so in this game, both sides fielded their strongest lineups.

Manchester United still uses a 433 formation, with goalkeeper De Gea and four defenders Valencia, Ferdinand, Vidic and Ashley Young. Both sides of this back line are played by non-pure full-backs, which is also a helpless choice made by Ferguson. Rafael's offense is strong but weak, and Evra's condition in the new season is not at its best. In addition, this is Manchester United's fourth game in 12 days, and the 31-year-old veteran is also a bit overwhelmed.

As for the three midfielders, youngster Kante once again got a chance to play. His partner was Modric, and the attacking midfielder was still Sneijder.

On the front line, Robin van Persie is in the center, and Bale and Rooney are on the left and right.

For Manchester City, the goalkeeper is Joe Hart, and the four defenders are Zabaleta, Lescott, Kompany and Kolarov. In the four midfielders, Rodwell is deep and Yaya Toure is in the middle. Nasri and David Silva are separated on the wings, and Tevez and Dzeko are paired up front.

Manchester City attaches great importance to Bell's defense, and the Manchester City players are very strong. After Mancini's key deployment and drills, in the entire right half of their own half, it seems like an Italian chain. The defense created an iron cage, and every player was like the iron bars that made up this iron cage, and Bell was the bird imprisoned in this cage.

As he expected before the game, Mancini did not specifically assign manpower to mark Bell, but he used regional defense to confine Bell and cut off Bell's connection with other players in Manchester United's frontcourt, midfield and backfield.

Manchester City's targeted defensive tactics effectively curbed Bell's performance after the opening. In the first ten minutes, he received the ball very few times, let alone broke into the small penalty area to catch the ball and triggered a must-have. A killing blow.

During this time, Bell felt isolated from the team.

………………

Bell quickly realized this and immediately expanded the scope of his activities.

After Mancini came to Manchester City, he kneaded this ragtag group of mercenaries from all over the world together and truly became a powerful team in the Premier League. On the offensive end, the offensive firepower is second only to Manchester United in the Premier League. The defensive level It has also improved a lot.

This is mainly reflected in the overall movement of the players. As soon as Bell enters the threatening area on the left, Manchester City immediately tightens the cage. Moreover, the cage will still move as a whole as Bell runs.

This makes Bell quite frustrated. He can only play on the wing or retreat deeper to get the ball in non-threatening areas. And away from the goal, his threat is greatly reduced.

Bell also had to admit that Manchester City's defense was indeed very good. This is not a passive defense, but an active pressing defense full of overall movement, with a hint of Barcelona.

Bell glanced at Mancini in front of the visiting team's coaching bench and thought to himself: "Mancini really has two brushes. But if you think you can trap me in this way, you really underestimate me! It's not like that before. Other teams have dealt with me like this, but who has ever succeeded?"

………………

In the first ten minutes, Bell misfired on the left and failed to create a threat after receiving several passes, which made Mancini very satisfied.

Mancini's assistants sitting in the visiting team's coaching bench also breathed a sigh of relief that the targeted tactics worked.

Mancini still felt a little sad in his heart.

Since taking over as coach of Manchester City at the end of 2010, the team he led had an embarrassing record of 8 games, 1 win, 1 draw and 6 losses when facing Manchester United. The only victory was this year's Community Shield. Without Bell present.

In other words, facing Manchester United led by Bell, Manchester City's record was 1 draw and 6 losses, with no wins. Manchester United scored 16 goals, but they only scored 9 goals. Among Manchester United's goals, Bell accounted for 8 goals, which is exactly half. In addition, he also sent out 5 assists.

Mancini's biggest problem is to restrict Bell, but he has never succeeded. Bell scored against Manchester City in 6 of those 7 games. In the other game, the 27th round of the 2010-2011 Premier League season, the second leg of the Manchester City Derby at Old Trafford, Bell did not He scored a goal, but provided 2 assists, which directly dominated the outcome of that game.

Therefore, Mancini couldn't believe what was happening on the court in front of him.

Is Bell really locked up like this? Is he the kind of player who gets locked up easily?

As soon as this ominous thought came to his mind, Mancini saw Bale looking towards him on the court, with a half-smiling expression, as if to say, you underestimate me!

This made Mancini suddenly feel a strong sense of uneasiness.

………………

When Bell saw the football passed back to the backcourt and to the feet of Ashley Young on the left, he quickly pulled to the left, ran back along the sideline, and raised his hands to ask for Ashley Young. ball.

Argentinian Zabaleta immediately chose to keep up, but his reaction was a step slower and his speed was not as fast as Bell. By the time he caught up behind Bell, Ashley Young's pass had already reached Bell.

Therefore, Manchester City's right back chose to block behind Bell.

But Bell had already predicted his choice. Before Zabaleta could get close, he took a step forward and stopped sideways with his right foot. The ball immediately slid to Bell's left, and he turned around immediately, facing Zabaleta sideways, and quickly cut inside with the ball.

Manchester City's right midfielder Nasri was right behind Zabaleta, but because they were moving quickly just now, the distance between the two was a little far. After Bell turned sideways and cut inside with the ball, Nasri Return to defensive position.

Facing the hurried opponent, when Bell just tried to cut into the penalty area from the ribs, Nasrir immediately fell for the trick and made a blocking move. But in fact, Bell feinted a shot and passed by with a pendulum. Nasri, dribbling the ball laterally and cutting inside.

Bell's original idea was to dribble the ball and cut inside to the center, and then cooperate with his teammates depending on the situation, or pass the ball to his teammates. But when he dribbled the ball all the way to the left side of the top of the penalty area, he saw Manchester City's midfielder Rodwell retreating too deep in a hurry, blocking the central defender to a certain extent, and the two central defenders Lesko Another gap appeared between Te and Kompany.

At this moment, he seemed to see a passage leading to the goal.

From behind the deep-lying midfielder Rodwell, between the two central defenders Lescott and Kompany, the ball can go directly to the right side of the goal.

After seeing this passage, I also thought that standing in front of Manchester City's goal was Joe Hart, a famous background player in world football.

If the sky is sentimental, the sky will be old too. If you see Hartmon, you will kick him!

At that moment, Bell suddenly felt an overwhelming desire.

Almost at that moment, Bell made an immediate decision, raised his right foot and fired a blast.

A muffled sound of "bang" was heard at the scene. The football flew out from Bell's right foot. At a speed that was difficult to discern with the naked eye, it passed behind the defensive player with a beautiful arc, almost grazing. The right post hit the goal behind Joe Hart!

………………

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!"

"World wave! World wave!!!!"

…

With the commentator's exclamation, the entire Louis II Stadium in Monaco was completely boiling.

Manchester United fans who had traveled tens of millions of miles to watch the game in Monaco rushed out of the stands excitedly and rushed to the fence, shouting for Bale.

The larger number of local Monaco fans and the nearby French fans also applauded Bell's wonderful super world wave.

The place where Bell started was more than thirty meters away from the far goal post!

After Bale took that shot, he quickly turned around and rushed off the field, directly to the bottom of the Manchester United fans' stands, spreading his arms as if to embrace the cheers and cheers pouring from the stands.

In the East, Xinlang Sports, which broadcast the game, the special commentator Mr. Zhan Jun was also stunned by Bell's goal and exclaimed: "Oh my God, in the seventeenth minute, seventeen minutes into the game, Bell dribbled the ball in from the left and suddenly hit a world-wide shot! This was definitely a ground-breaking long-range shot, more than thirty meters away from the goal!"

"It's so exciting! This will definitely be a worldwide sensation that everyone will talk about!"

"No one expected that Bell would suddenly take a long shot and hit such a high-quality shot in the world."

"There was only a small gap in Manchester City's tight defensive formation, but Bale caught it and scored first with a wonderful kick!"

"Joe Hart is so tragic. When he is guarding the goal, there will always be all kinds of stunning super world waves!"
