I Am Really the Savior of the Red Devils

Chapter 179 Manchester City Nemesis

"The current situation is very unfavorable to Manchester City. After the second half, Manchester United played more actively."

"Guardiola should probably consider adjusting the team's tactical play and strengthening the offense appropriately."

...

Guardiola has not adjusted the team's tactical play, but the leading Ye Su quickly made substitution adjustments.

Fellaini replaced Mata and partnered with Kanter as a double midfielder. De Bruyne's position was pushed forward to the front midfielder. At the same time, Rooney and Vardy retreated to level with De Bruyne. Ibra Simovic was at the forefront alone, Manchester United changed to 4231, and began to concentrate on defensive counterattacks.

This adjustment of Manchester United annoyed Manchester City very much. Guardiola was so angry on the sidelines that he almost burst into foul language. I knew in my heart that the kid on the opposite side was the same as that guy Jose. He played defensive counterattacks when he took the lead.

Although he was very depressed, Guardiola had no choice but to let the team strengthen their offense.

Falling behind by one goal, Guardiola's team began to counterattack frantically. However, Manchester City's offense has never been able to break into Manchester United's penalty area. The most threatening one was in the 69th minute, when Manchester City made a cross from the right, but Ishinacho, who responded later, ran past. Missed the ball.

The mistake of cooperation this time also reflected the anxiety of the Manchester City players.

Subsequently, Guardiola replaced Sagna with Zabaleta, obviously to strengthen the team's offensive.

Once Manchester City plays an offensive, Manchester United is still very dangerous.

In the 73rd minute, Rooney tried to jump out from behind to steal the ball when he retreated to defend, but accidentally kicked David Silva down and gave Manchester City a free kick more than 30 meters away. , and was shown a yellow card by the referee.

The fans at Old Trafford cheered Rooney.

Obviously, they like to see Rooney's fighting spirit and never give up on the court.

Rooney is also very innocent. He took the initiative to reach out and pull up David Silva, and apologized to the Spanish midfielder, saying that he did not mean it.

David Silva is also very clear that if he hadn't made a sudden kick, Rooney would have stolen the ball. This is mainly due to his rich experience and knowing how to protect the ball, so he does not blame Rooney for this foul.

However, fortunately, as a frontcourt player, it is not easy to get cards.

According to Premier League rules, five yellow cards are required to suspend the game, and Rooney is still far behind.

………………

Subsequently, Manchester City continued to strengthen the offensive, but Manchester United deliberately slowed down, waiting for the opportunity to fight back steadily.

When the game time reached the 78th minute, Manchester City once again scored into Manchester United's penalty area and got a corner kick.

Manchester City sent a corner kick, which created chaos in the penalty area, but in the end the ball failed to hit the goal. Instead, Kyle Walker got it in front of the baseline, and directly passed a long pass to the center line.

Ibrahimovic retreated to defend, but Rooney still stayed in the frontcourt.

When Kyle Walker came over with a long pass, he kept predicting where the ball would fall, and grabbed the most favorable position before Kolarov, blocking Manchester City's left back.

Although Kolarov has a height advantage over Rooney and has excellent physical fitness, he already has a yellow card. At this time, he has to consider that if he directly confronts Rooney head-on, if he gets another card, it will be dangerous. up. Therefore, Kolarov's strategy is to stand behind Rooney and not give him a chance to turn around.

And Rooney obviously guessed what the opponent was thinking. When the ball flew, he took a step forward, headed the ball, the ball immediately changed direction, and Rooney quickly turned around and started.

Kolarov's reaction speed is not unreasonable, but he is passive in the end. When Rooney turned around and started, he realized that he was going to turn around.

At this time, he thought about reaching out and grabbing Rooney directly, but he considered that he had a yellow card, and there was teammate Zabaleta behind him, so he finally chose not to foul, but quickly caught up with Rooney.

Rooney's dribbling speed is very fast, every step is big, and he rushed to Manchester City's goal at an extremely fast speed.

Zabaleta also chased all the way back, trying to stop Rooney at the front of the penalty area. Unexpectedly, Rooney suddenly slowed down, making Zabaleta mistakenly think that he was going to hit the goal directly, and immediately slowed down.

But it didn't take long for Zabaleta to realize he had been duped. As soon as Manchester City's right back slowed down, Rooney suddenly accelerated and started again. He threw away Zabaleta and rushed into the penalty area. Facing Bravo, who was stubbornly guarding the goal line and dared not attack, he made a calm volley , Once again pierced Manchester City's goal.

2:0!

………………

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"In the 79th minute, Manchester United made another victory! A long-distance attack from captain Wayne Rooney!"

"Very, very exciting scoring! Rooney broke through two Manchester City defenders alone, and finally faced the goalkeeper and scored calmly!"

"This is the 225th Premier League goal of Rooney's career. He continues to catch up with Alan Shearer at a very fast speed. There is still a gap of 35 goals between him and the former Newcastle striker, but with Rooney in the last few days With the scoring efficiency shown this season, Rooney is very likely to catch up with Alan Shearer next season!"

"This is also Rooney's 13th goal against Manchester City in all competitions. He is the player with the most goals against Manchester City in the history of Manchester United. He really deserves to be the nemesis of Manchester City!"

"Manchester United took advantage of a corner from Manchester City and quickly counterattacked."

"Rooney has scored goals in the Community Shield, the UEFA Super Cup and the first and second rounds of the Premier League. Tonight, in the game against Manchester City, the city's rivals, he passed and shot to help Manchester United temporarily lead Manchester City."

"It can be said that Rooney has continued his excellent form in the previous two seasons this season!"

"He made everyone realize once again that he still has endless potential!"

...

Rooney's name was being chanted throughout Old Trafford.

After Rooney scored the goal, he rushed all the way to the bottom of the chairman's stand, slid and knelt in front of the fans, and opened his arms unscrupulously.

This is what he wants!

Not only does he want to lead Manchester United to win, but he also wants to let the whole of Europe and even the whole world see his strength. He will definitely beat the proud guy Chris and the little guy Messi to get his own gold medal ball award!

He has been working hard for this for many years and this year is the best opportunity because Manchester United have had the best year in team history and his personal performance is also very good.

He must prove his ability to everyone in the rest of this year, and at the same time let all fans all over the world remember his name deeply!

Wayne Rooney!

………………

"We made several serious mistakes!"

At the press conference after the game, Manchester City coach Guardiola summed up the game that had just ended when he was interviewed by the media. His expression looked very lonely because his team had just lost.

2:1, international practice, the home team is in front and the visiting team is behind.

It was only in the last few minutes for Manchester City that Ishinacho broke into the middle of the penalty area and scored calmly. But this can't change the final trend of the game.

Relying on Wayne Rooney's one pass and one shot, Manchester United defeated Manchester City 2:1 at home, ending their opponent's three-game winning streak. At the same time, they continued to lead the Premier League standings with four consecutive victories.

Guardiola believes that the team's biggest problem is that there have been too many mistakes. This is Manchester City's most serious problem so far this season, and it should not be.

"You can't make mistakes at this high level of play, but unfortunately, we made more than one serious defensive error, which hit us hard and ended up losing the game."

Guardiola believes that Manchester United's defense in this game is very good. It is difficult for Manchester City to find a breakthrough. There are a lot of shots, but in fact most of them are from long-range shots. There are not many opportunities to kick in the truly threatening penalty area. .

"Judging from the whole game, our ball possession time is much higher than that of our opponents. We are obviously better and have taken the initiative in the game, but we are not effective enough in the conversion rate of ball possession. We give the opponent's offense The pressure wasn't strong enough."

"To put it simply, we need to make us more aggressive, but also more concise and efficient."

But Guardiola also admitted that this is a problem that has always existed in the team this season, but he doesn't think it has anything to do with his introduction of too many new players.

For Rooney's performance, Guardiola gave a very high evaluation.

"In fact, I've been following him closely since I started as a football manager eight years ago, and he's improved so fast, every year. And now, he's the best player on the planet. One of three players who I believe will be a strong contender for the Ballon d'Or and World Player of the Year this year."

For the game, Ye Su praised Rooney and the players fiercely, especially mentioning Rooney's role as the captain of the team, and his ability to stand up at critical moments is very admirable.

The Manchester United coach also said that if it were not for the referee's misjudgment, the Red Devils should have scored in the first half.

"It was a very obvious, undoubted handball. It should have been a penalty kick. Our players also appealed, but the referee still upheld the original verdict. I believe everyone should have seen it. It was a wrong penalty. .”

As for the penalty mentioned by Ye Su, Manchester City coach Guardiola said that he did not see it.

"I didn't notice at the time whether it was a handball or not, but I think the referee made the most sensible decision in his opinion at the time. My player didn't consciously try to open his arms. That should not be sentenced to death. .”

This should be the only difference between Guardiola and Ye Su at the press conference.
