Football King Bale

Chapter 621 Successfully promoted

Kompany rushed up and destroyed the football. However, a red figure rushed up and shot directly before him!

"Kante!"

Kanter is like a desperate man. He doesn't care about the angle of his shot. It's good to be able to hit the football anyway.

The football suddenly jumped up, and Manchester City goalkeeper Pantilimon subconsciously stretched his legs to block it. The football was blocked by him, but he took a hasty kick and did not kick the ball far. Instead, it bounced and landed in the penalty area.

This caused chaos in front of the Manchester City goal. Just when Clichy was about to make a clearance, someone was faster than him. He rushed up and drove the ball into the empty goal.

Manchester City goalkeeper Pantilimon is still lying on the ground and hasn't gotten up yet.

"GOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAALLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Manchester United equalized the score! Hernandez! He scored in front of the goal! This is a key goal!"

"1:1, a goal, Hernandez's clever follow-up shot succeeded."

After scoring the goal, Hernandez was very excited. He turned around and ran towards Kanter, who had passed the ball for him before, and the two hugged each other tightly.

"N'Golo, I'm great, pass it to me and you can score!" Hernandez shouted happily.

Kanter chuckled and didn't even mention the fact that this guy almost wasted his opportunity just now.

If you score a goal, that’s the last word.

………………

"The ball came very timely. Although Ferguson has formed a half-main and half-substitute lineup, this Manchester United team is not weak. It is very competitive even in the Premier League!"

"Yes, Ferguson will never allow his team to lose to Manchester City! Last week, Manchester United won the league in advance, and they have no intention of giving up. Hernandez's key goal helped Manchester United win the championship in advance. The new Wembley Stadium equalized the score, 1:1!”

The Manchester United players seemed very excited after the goal. They surrounded Hernandez and cheered heartily.

The commentator was wrong. Ferguson didn't allow the team to lose to Manchester City. He gave the team an order to win.

And this goal, this counterattack, is something Manchester United has practiced many times in training.

The sweat the players put in on the training ground translates into goals, which is a great feeling.

Especially it enhances the confidence of the whole team.

There is a saying in the outside world that Manchester United does not know how to play without Bell. Although the players all admitted that Bell played an important role in the team, being said like this still made other Manchester United players unhappy.

Now, without Bale on the court, they scored the equalizer goal when they fell behind, which made the players very happy.

………………

After conceding the goal, Manchester City played more open. Because of this game, Manchester City has no other choice but to win. Once the game is lost, not only will coach Mancini's prospects in the Premier League not be good, but also some of the Manchester City players' prospects in the club will not be good either.

If the team changes coaches, some players in the team will definitely be purged. This can be imagined with your toes.

However, Manchester City's proactive attack did not allow them to take the lead again. On the contrary, in the injury time of the first half, Manchester United succeeded in a sneak attack for the first time. Giggs' ball, Welbeck's header and back, Pogba volleyed far away. The shot was successful.

2:1!

Manchester United took the lead.

The timing of this goal was also very critical. Manchester United had just scored and the first half was over, leaving the Manchester City people with no time to resist.

This was a big blow to the morale of Manchester City's players who were attacking like crazy.

………………

During the halftime break, Ferguson praised the performance of his players. To be honest, Ferguson didn't have high hopes for such a half-substitute, half-main lineup.

Although he asked the players to win the game, Ferguson also knew that it would be good for this Manchester United to maintain a draw in the first half.

But what I didn't expect was that Manchester United's performance in the first half exceeded expectations. They actually scored two goals in a row and reversed the score.

Ferguson singled out Hernandez for praise.

The Mexican international was all smiles after being praised.

This season, Xiao Wandou didn't get many opportunities at Manchester United because his competitors were really too strong. However, in the limited playing time, he performed very efficiently.

After the start of the second half, Mancini deployed his troops one after another to strengthen the attack.

However, facing Manchester United's solid defense, the Manchester City people failed again and again.

The game went on for seventy-one minutes, and the score on the field was still 2:1, with Manchester City lagging behind.

Manchester City's attack, this time Yaya Toure's long shot from outside the penalty area directly fired the anti-aircraft gun.

Seeing this shot, Bell laughed happily below. This kind of shot really demoralized his teammates:

Manchester City finally got a good offensive opportunity. The pass came over, but you kicked such a precious shooting opportunity into the sky!

………………

"Manchester City people are impatient." Mike Phelan shouted happily.

Ferguson nodded proudly, and he immediately made substitution adjustments.

Carrick comes on as a substitute, replacing Welbeck. Manchester United changed to 451, leaving only Hernandez in front.

Carrick is good at offense and defense. With him on the court, he can share Kante's defensive tasks, while also sharing the organizational responsibilities of Pogba and Modric.

"This adjustment is very timely." John Mortensen commented, "Kante and Carrick are in the middle, like two pliers, clamping down on Manchester City's passage."

John Mortensen was right, but he soon noticed that Manchester United's tactics had actually changed again. Manchester United's lineup is not the 4231 he expected, but 4312. Kante, Modric and Carrick form a three-back midfielder. In front of them are Pogba and Carrick, and Hernandez is alone. At the front.

Ferguson gave Kante maximum freedom. The French teenager ran all over the court to help Carrick defend, while Modric was more comfortable playing in the midfield position.

Giggs' position is prerequisite. He and Hernandez are two fast players who threaten Manchester City's defense at all times.

Behind these two people is Pogba. As long as he has the ball, the Manchester City people are like a formidable enemy.

As time went by, the Manchester City people's almost desperate attack seemed quite tragic.

………………

Ferguson also made his second substitution adjustment, with young player Lingard coming on as a substitute, replacing Giggs.

For this young Manchester United youth training player, Manchester City people seem to lack the necessary preparation and understanding.

In the 83rd minute of the game, Kante and Carrick teamed up to steal the ball from the feet of the Manchester City attacker. Then, after Modric got the ball, he directly sent a big long pass.

"It's a big pass," Lineker said, shaking his head.

The Manchester City people thought so too. Their captain Kompany signaled his teammates to press forward, he would get the ball, and then continue to attack.

Then, Kompany's eyes widened. What did he see?

It was like a red lightning bolt.

"Lingard! This kid is so fast, my God!"

When Kompany, who was obviously careless, saw Lingard rushing over, he immediately realized that the opponent was closer to the football than him.

We must not let this guy pass!

In an almost subconscious reaction, Kompany reached out and pulled down Lingard, who had just taken the ball and was about to make a breakthrough. Then, the Manchester City captain knew something was wrong:

He already received a yellow card in the first half of the game.

………………

The whistle sounded without any surprise.

The referee on duty, Foy, ran over and took out a yellow card from his pocket.

Foy first showed Kompany a yellow card, and then took out another card: red!

"Two yellows turned into one red, and Kompany was sent off. Kompany had no choice but to foul. However, he received a red card for this and Manchester City suffered a major blow."

Ferguson smiled and applauded on the sidelines. In Fang Jue's view, this red card was a bigger blow to Manchester City than the goal.

Kompany is the captain of Manchester City and the anchor of this team's defense.

More importantly, Mancini has used up three substitutions.

Mancini rubbed his cheek hard with a painful expression. Although there was still time for the game, he already had a premonition that the game was going to be lost.

"We're going to win," Mike Phelan said.

Ferguson nodded, but the game was not over yet, he had to add another lock for victory.

Soon, Ferguson made his third substitution adjustment. Giggs was replaced and Bale came on as a substitute.

………………

Finally, when the referee blew the full-time whistle, the New Wembley Stadium cheered loudly, celebrating the team's advancement to the FA Cup final for the third consecutive season.

Of course, what Manchester United fans think more about is that the club is one step closer to winning the Triple Crown!

Regarding their opponents in the final, Wigan Athletic, Manchester United really didn't take them seriously.

"At the end of the game, Manchester United scored two goals in a row after conceding one goal first, 21, and they won the game."

"Using a half-main and half-substitute lineup to win against Manchester City, which played all main players, Manchester United proved to the world the thickness of their lineup."

"Manchester United is challenging for three consecutive FA Cup titles. With Wigan Athletic's strength, it will be difficult to stop Manchester United from winning the title."

"Although Manchester United's performance this season is not as stable as in previous seasons, it does not hinder their performance. Having already won a record three consecutive Premier League titles, if Manchester United can achieve three consecutive FA Cups Crown, that would be really amazing.”

"What cannot be forgotten is that Manchester United has also made it to the semi-finals of the Champions League this season. If they can defeat their opponents along the way and finally win the Champions League, then they will create an even greater miracle: three consecutive trebles!"
