Chapter 243 World wave! Super brain! Premier League version of the national derby! [Subscribe]

“The ball is still in the hands of the Bayswater Chinese.”

“The away team’s opening attack continues.”

“Let’s see. We still want to play from the left this time.”

“Gareth Bale got the ball and passed it back to Toni Kroos.”

“The Bayern fans in the stadium once again gave a thunderous booing.”

“But the German midfield was not affected, and they made a wide range of lateral passes.”

“That’s what Toni Kroos is good at.”

“He throws these long passes very quickly, very low and very accurately.”

“Piszczek came forward to receive the ball.”

“Bayern’s defense is also adjusting quickly.”

“After Heynckes took over as coach, Bayern’s entire defensive layout has changed a lot.”

“The overall defensive formation moves very quickly.”

“Piszczek passed the ball across to Di Maria.”

“The ball went back to the flank and was passed to Modric who was coming in from behind.”

“Modric received the ball and rushed forward to the right side of the penalty area.”

“Lewandowski was at the top of the key, didn’t receive the ball, and missed it.”

“There’s more later!”

“Gareth Bale, there’s a chance!”

“No fight, leak again!”

When Gareth Bale passed the ball again, Toni Kroos had already rushed to the left side of the penalty area.

As the ball slowly rolled over, the German midfielder felt an unprecedented strong impulse in his heart.

He has an extremely strong desire!

He felt that he could definitely get the ball in.

So he stepped into the penalty area with his left foot, and after standing firmly, he swung his right foot.

When the football slowly rolls over, kick it out quickly with your right foot.

It feels like a putt in golf.

He touched the ball with the front inside of his right foot, and pushed the ball higher, allowing it to fly out at a faster speed.

The football drew an elegant arc and went straight into the upper right corner of Bayern Munich’s goal.

This is an absolute blind spot!
No controversy!

The entire process of Toni Kroos’s putting and shooting was very clean and neat, without any hesitation or even the slightest unnecessary movement.

The ball went into the goal very smoothly.

Even though Neuer was standing just to the right of the middle of the goal and tried his best to save the ball, he was unable to prevent it from going directly into the blind corner.

2 is better than 0!

“The ball went in!!!”

“In the 16th minute, under the fierce bombardment of the Chinese in Bayswater, Bayern Munich’s goal was lost again!”

“Goal from former Bayern player Toni Kroos!”

“We can see that Toni Kroos was very excited after the goal. He rushed out of the stadium and rushed to the sidelines, shouting angrily.”

“This is more of a revenge!”

“I have suppressed this deep in my heart for a long time, and finally I have my revenge!”

“The Bayswater Chinese played a very brilliant attack this time.”

“Or rather, from the start till now, the Bayswater Chinese have been constantly launching attacks, mostly from the left, with Toni Kroos contributing a very exciting offensive performance!”

“And in the end, his goal was also quite spectacular, a world-class goal!”

The players of Bayswater Chinese rushed out of the stadium and ran all the way to the sidelines to celebrate Toni Kroos’ goal.

One pass and one shot!
Just 16 minutes into the game, Toni Kroos directed a brilliant offensive play!

Bayern Munich couldn’t even come up with an effective solution to the overwhelming offensive from the Chinese in Bayswater.

The 6 Bayern fans in the Allianz Arena were silent for a few seconds.

They were obviously shocked by the powerful offensive from the Chinese in Bayswater and the roar from Toni Kroos.

This is the Allianz Arena!

They actually made the Chinese in Bayswater die just as easily as killing a chicken with just two cuts!
And Toni Kroos, the player they had scolded for two years and the former Bayern Munich player, slapped them in the face with an pass and a shot.

He did it on purpose!
Everyone can see it!
But his ability is indeed not seen in Bayern Munich!

……

In the presidential stand of the Allianz Arena, all Bayern executives, including the bigwigs of the supervisory board, sat together.

They all came to watch the game in order to cheer for the team.

This game is really important!

Because this season’s Champions League final will be held at the Allianz Arena.

Not only Bayern attaches importance to it, Munich also attaches importance to it, and even the whole of Germany attaches great importance to it.

Everyone hopes that Bayern can reach the final and win the championship.

So, Bayern actually spent a lot of money last summer.

But when they actually got to the competition and met the Chinese players from Bayswater, everyone realized that the gap was really huge.

In just 16 minutes of the first half, the Chinese team in Bayswater had already scored two goals.

The first goal came from Di Maria’s volley, assisted by Toni Kroos’s long diagonal pass.

The second goal was a world-class shot from Toni Kroos into the far corner.

But before that, the German midfielder made a long horizontal pass, which stretched Bayern’s defense.

Similar scenes have occurred many times since the start of this game.

Toni Kroos seemed to be determined to achieve his revenge in front of everyone in Bayern Munich!
From East Germany, Yuri’s Revenge!

“We have to admit that this was a mistake!”

Football Emperor Beckenbauer smiled happily when he saw Toni Kroos and his teammates finish celebrating their goal and walk back into the stadium.

This kind of smile was something he had never seen when he played for Bayern.

Even in Leverkusen, he rarely smiled like this.

Beckenbauer’s words made Rummenigge, Hoeness, Neilinger and others look unhappy.

Because this deal was a decision they made.

Of course, the bigwigs on the Supervisory Board also agreed.

But the problem is that the bosses of the Supervisory Board are not responsible for the team’s poor record.

They are the overseers!
“He is clearly resentful towards us now, which may not be a bad thing.”

As soon as Beckenbauer finished speaking, everyone around him was shocked.

How is this a good thing?
Hoeness reacted the fastest and was the first to understand what the Football Emperor meant.

“The fact that he has grievances proves that he still has feelings for our team. We bought him back and entrusted him with important tasks.”

“That’s right!” said Beckenbauer, ignoring the bad look on Rummenigge’s face next to him.

“Players like Toni Kroos are too scarce in European football. We should buy him back while he is still young and spend a little more money, which can be regarded as paying the training fee to the Chinese in Bayswater.”

The bigwigs of the Supervisory Board all nodded, including Adidas’ Hainer.

“Toni Kroos now looks at us Bayern in the same way as Eto’o looked at Real Madrid. It is normal for love to turn into hate. So, as long as we come forward to persuade him, I believe he will be happy to come back.” Hoeness also feels that Bayern should make up for this mistake.

It would be best if he made up for it himself!
Because this mistake was made by him back then.

On the field, after Bayswater Chinese took a two-goal lead, the game resumed.

It is obvious that Heynckes finally asked the team to retreat.

Otherwise there is really no other way.

Two goals were scored in the first 16 minutes of the game.

Generally speaking, in this situation, you can either play it safe, choose to defend, and slowly fight with Bayern Munich.

This is the first leg away game.

Having scored two away goals, Yang Cheng’s team can definitely afford it!

But Yang Cheng chose another one.

Keep attacking!

This is a very courageous style of play, but it also gives Bayern a lot of headaches.

This Premier League giant has advantages in terms of skills, tactics and strength, so if they continue to attack, they will force Bayern to switch to defense, and they have the advantage of ball possession.

Many people are discussing whether someone’s tactical philosophy is offensive or conservative?
It depends on the choice you make at this time!

There is no doubt that Yang Cheng is an offensive maniac.

At this time, if Bayern did not retreat, they would really be beaten by the visiting team.

Even if they are not defeated and the game turns into an offensive battle, with Bayern Munich’s strength, can they be sure of winning?

By then, how many more goals will we concede at home?

Heynckes made a very pragmatic and prudent choice.

But it also allowed everyone to see Bayern Munich’s helplessness.

The strength is really unmatched!
Especially in midfield.

Heynckes deployed a large force in the midfield, with Gustavo, Tymoshchuk and Schweinsteiger all in the midfield, and Thomas Muller often retreated to provide support.

But they couldn’t stop Toni Kroos and Modric.

Especially Toni Kroos.

The German midfielder always runs into space to receive the ball.

Receive, pass, run; receive, pass, run…

He would never let the ball stop unnecessarily at his feet, and every time he handled the ball, it was very clean.

Not to mention there is no dedicated guard.

Even if Gustavo was assigned to mark Toni Kroos, he couldn’t stop the way he played.

At best, it can only curb his forward passing route.

“I talked to Yang Cheng at an event before. He said something that might cause a lot of controversy, but I think it makes sense.”

Beckenbauer said slowly.

But everyone around him, including Rummenigge, Hoeness and others, all turned their heads and looked at him.

There are not many quotations of Yang Cheng circulating outside.

“In recent years, the development of European football techniques and tactics has become more and more detailed and complex. The player’s brain has become the most important and valuable quality that is not inferior to or even exceeds the player’s physical condition!”

After hearing this, everyone’s first reaction was to refute.

Bayern’s top management all played football.

Anyone who has ever played football knows that without a body, what is the point of playing football?

Physical fitness is the most important quality of a player.

But if you think carefully about the meaning of Yang Cheng’s words, anyone who wants to refute it will not be able to do so.

Because the height that Yang Cheng stands at is also their height.

From the perspective of top clubs like Bayswater Chinese, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, is the physical fitness of players important?

Yes, it is very important.

But it’s also very unimportant!
Because of their location, they can select materials from all over the world.

All the players that come into their field of vision are basically players with strong physical fitness.

Otherwise, I would have been eliminated long ago.

Even the teams in the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, and even Ligue 1 basically have no shortage of players with excellent physical fitness.

What is scarce are players with super brains!
Therefore, from the perspective of football, Yang Cheng’s words are definitely controversial, or even wrong.

But from the perspective of the giants and the top five leagues, it is very correct!

Look at the Bayswater Chinese midfield.

Not to mention Toni Kroos and Modric, Matic also started out as a No. 10 attacking midfielder.

When Javi Martinez debuted, he was also a central midfielder and played as an attacking midfielder.

Not to mention Aaron Ramsey, Pogba, De Bruyne and others.

He transformed a group of No. 10 players into midfielders with different characteristics.

And these guys all have really good brains for playing football.

For now, Toni Kroos and Modric are undoubtedly super brains!
……

Bayswater Chinese finally defeated Bayern 2-0 away with goals from Di Maria and Toni Kroos.

Apart from two goals in the first 16 minutes, neither side was able to score again for the rest of the game.

But the situation is different.

The Chinese in Bayswater kept launching attacks and creating shooting opportunities, but either Bayern’s defense performed well or goalkeeper Neuer played bravely.

Therefore, the Premier League giants were never able to score again.

Bayern Munich’s situation is more because they have too few opportunities.

It was not until the 26th minute of the first half that Bayern took the first shot of the game.

This is at the Allianz Arena!

In the entire first half, Bayern only had two shots.

You can easily imagine how passive the situation was.

But Heynckes’ team still held on to the 0-2 score and prevented the Bayswater Chinese from scoring again.

Bayern’s most threatening attack in the entire game came after 80 minutes in the second half.

At that time, the physical strength of the Chinese players in Bayswater declined after continuous attacks, and Bayern took the opportunity to launch an attack.

The most threatening shot came in the 86th minute, when Alaba made a low pass to the back of the penalty area from the left, Thomas Muller knocked the ball back to the middle, and Gomez shot from 10 meters in front of the goal.

But the shot was blocked due to interference from Thiago Silva and Pepe.

Immediately afterwards, the Chinese in Bayswater launched a counterattack.

Marcelo made a precise long pass to counterattack.

Gareth Bale drove straight in and first wanted to pass the ball to Walcott, who came on as a substitute.

But it was blocked by Lahm who returned to defense in time.

Then, Gareth Bale’s low left-foot shot into the far corner was saved by goalkeeper Neuer in time.

The competition came to an end.

Bayswater Chinese won 2 goals away from home!
……

The Chinese from Bayswater walked out of the Allianz Arena with their heads held high!
This was the first commentary on the game published by German Bild after the game ended.

In this article, Bild believes that the Premier League team took away a victory from the Allianz Arena with a crushing advantage, and also got two valuable away goals.

“They already have one foot in the Champions League semi-finals!”

Bild believes that the game at the Allianz Arena almost destroyed Bayern’s hopes of winning the Champions League at home.

“Bayern fell to a team that had an indisputable advantage in football!”

But the German media believes that Bayern Munich actually has many good points.

For example, after conceding two goals to the Chinese team from Bayswater in just 16 minutes, the German team did not collapse or surrender, but continued to fight tenaciously.

“They were in desperate situations, even at the very end of the game, and they were trying to save themselves.”

“Unfortunately, they encountered the Bayswater Chinese.”

“The strongest team in European football right now!”

Bild believes that Bayern’s opponents have performed at an extremely high level, and at the same time made German football see the gap.

Kicker magazine used the two huge words “Regret” and “Revenge” on the cover of its Champions League special issue in the middle of the week.

Unfortunately, this is Bayern Munich.

The Bundesliga champions wanted to fight for the Champions League title this season, but they met Bayswater Chinese in the quarterfinals.

This is unfortunate.

“Football has its own winning code, but this night is in the hands of the Chinese in Bayswater!”

Kicker magazine also mentioned Toni Kroos.

The German media believed that this was a revenge of Toni Kroos from East Germany against Bayern.

“This was Toni Kroos’ first return to the Allianz Arena since leaving Bayern Munich and he showed a very high level of passing and possession throughout the game.”

Kicker magazine stated that in the past two years, Toni Kroos has not had any good attitude or comments towards Bayern Munich, and the conflict between the two sides is obvious.

This time, the German midfielder proved his worth at the Allianz Arena.

“He personally ruined Bayern Munich’s biggest expectations this season, and even in the past decade!”

“Very cruel!”

Kicker magazine believes that Toni Kroos has indeed shown an eye-catching level while playing for Bayswater Chinese, and under Yang Cheng’s leadership, he has found his position.

“This is something Bayern could not give in the past.”

The German media believes that as one of the strongest teams in European football, Bayswater Chinese has one foot in the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Because according to probability, after losing 0-2 at home, the possibility of a comeback when going away is very slim.

Unless a miracle happens.

“But don’t forget, Bayswater Chinese have never lost a game at home!”

Compared with the tragic sentiment of the German media, the British media sang praises to the Chinese in Bayswater on the one hand, and added insult to injury to Bayern Munich on the other.

“See you in the final, Bayern!”

“Nightmare in Munich!”

“Fair football punishes Bayern!”

The headlines of the British media basically point in the same direction.

Bayern is finished!

As for Bayswater Chinese, the British media generally believe that Yang Cheng’s team has performed more stably and more balanced than last season.

This made them dominance in the game.

Bayern head coach Heynckes publicly congratulated Yang Cheng and his Bayswater Chinese at the post-match press conference, but the German coach stressed that “Bayern will not collapse!”

Heynckes believes that Yang Cheng’s team is the most talented team in European football today and is playing the most exciting football.

At the same time, they have the strongest attack and the most solid defense in Europe.

“We were a little slow to get going at the beginning of the game and conceded two goals, but we did well the rest of the time.”

“The opponent was really strong. They dominated the game and didn’t leave us many chances.”

Heynckes admitted that the 0-2 score at home made the second leg away game very difficult.

If we want to turn the situation around and qualify, we can only hope for a miracle.

“But I want to say that we will not collapse, nor will we give up. We are confident that we can turn the situation around in the second round!”

At the post-match press conference, Yang Cheng expressed satisfaction with the team’s performance.

He singled out Toni Kroos for praise.

The German midfielder made one assist and one goal, and was named the best player of the game.

Throughout the game, Bayswater Chinese had a ball possession rate of 61.1% and a pass success rate of 89.5%.

Both teams made 25 successful steals.

In terms of shots, Bayswater Chinese had 20, while Bayern Munich only had 10.

But there is one thing in the data: Bayern Munich is far ahead of the Chinese in Bayswater.

That is fouls. The Bundesliga team committed 32 fouls in total, while Bayswater Chinese only committed 12.

This can actually prove the advantage of the Chinese in Bayswater in the competition.

Yang Cheng felt it was a pity, “because we could have scored more goals in the game, and we had several very good chances, but their players performed very well and disrupted our attack.”

But no matter what, after winning 2-0 away, Bayswater Chinese has firmly grasped the initiative of the game.

……

Between the two rounds of the Champions League quarter-finals is a Premier League round 8 match.

Bayswater Chinese will host Manchester United at home.

Ferguson’s team has performed well in the Premier League this season and is aiming for a top four finish.

Therefore, Manchester United obviously does not care much about the Europa League games.

In the Europa League round of 3 knockout matches in early and mid-March, Manchester United lost both home and away to Athletic Bilbao of La Liga, ending their Europa League journey early and focusing on the Premier League.

It is obvious that Ferguson is determined to return to the top four of the Premier League and to the Champions League.

This is actually normal, as Premier League teams have never taken the Europa League seriously.

In the end, it’s a question of money.

No matter how well you play in the Europa League and win the championship with great effort, the benefits you get are not as good as moving up one or two places in the Premier League.

It’s Chelsea instead.

After the change of coach, Di Matteo’s team has improved significantly in the league and also performed well in the cup competitions.

In the first leg of the Europa League quarter-finals, they beat Sporting Lisbon 8-2 at home.

Changing a coach is like changing a knife. Chelsea’s performance after the change of coach is indeed very good.

Manchester United has a generous week to prepare for the upcoming 31st round of the Premier League at Wembley Stadium.

On one side is the oldest and most prestigious team in the Premier League, the former champion of the Premier League; on the other side is the hottest new star in European football and even in the world.

The peak showdown between the two teams attracted the attention of fans all over the world.

As the Times commented, this is a classic scene from the Hollywood blockbuster “Super Sunday”!

At the same time, this is also a benchmark blockbuster for the entire Premier League!
Although Manchester United’s performance has declined recently, the Red Devils’ influence around the world is still among the top two in the Premier League.

Apart from the Bayswater Chinese who can compete with them and even surpass Manchester United, other teams including Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool cannot compare with Manchester United at all.

Because of this, this game has set a record in Premier League history before it even started!
The Premier League announced that 21 broadcasters will simultaneously broadcast live at Wembley Stadium.

These include ESPN from Brazil and Al Jazeera from the Middle East, which are television organizations with wide influence around the world.

The match will be broadcast live around the world and is expected to be watched by more than 8 million fans.

This will create the highest ratings record in the history of the Premier League!

“The demand from TV broadcasters for this game is unprecedented!” Premier League CEO Richard Scudmore said in an interview with the media.

Because the participating teams are two of the most influential Premier League teams in the world!
Many media even said that this was a bit like the Premier League’s national derby!

Scudmore also revealed that the most rare thing is that this time they will fully enter the South American market.

You know, in the past many years, the Premier League’s presence in South America has been relatively weak.

Because South America is naturally close to Spain, it is the back garden of La Liga.

But in recent years, with more and more Brazilian and South American players joining the Premier League, the Premier League’s influence in South America has continued to grow.

As the most successful club for South American players to land in the Premier League, Bayswater Chinese have a greater influence in South America than any other Premier League team, making it the undisputed No. 1!

In the UK, this game also attracted much attention.

According to the Manchester Evening News, the two Manchester teams have a very consistent stance this time, which is that they hope Manchester United can bring down the Chinese from Bayswater.

Only if the Chinese in Bayswater are pulled down will Manchester City have a chance!

This time, the number of Manchester United fans who came to the away game was also very large, reaching 4000.

According to the Manchester Evening News, this is mainly because the Chinese in Bayswater limited the number of tickets for Manchester United’s away fans. Otherwise, there would be more Manchester United fans going south.

The 9 tickets for the entire stadium were sold out early on.

The head of a Manchester United fan organization revealed that some people in their fan club bought tickets at astonishingly high prices from scalpers in order to go south to watch the game.

An ordinary game ticket was sold for 2200 pounds!

Yes, this is definitely an exaggerated number!
With this money, you can buy 3 season tickets for Bayswater Chinese!

London police have repeatedly banned fans from reselling tickets on the black market, but the ban has persisted.

The Chinese in Bayswater even revealed that before this game, there were even many foreign travel agencies that used this game as a selling point to attract many fans from all over the world to come to London to watch the game.

CEO Adam Crozier revealed that over the past few seasons, travel agencies have been cooperating with Bayswater Chinese.

This situation has become more and more common this season.

It’s not just the game against Manchester United, it happens in other games and even almost every game.

“For the home game against Bayern Munich this weekend, we have already sold more than 3 tickets to tourists through our partner travel agencies.”

And that’s just the team tickets purchased through travel agencies.

What about those tourists who buy tickets through official channels on their own?
The price is the same, there is no discount, but the number of people is increasing.

This is a positive signal for the globalization of Bayswater Chinese!

……

March 3st afternoon, Wembley Stadium, London.

In the 31st round of the Premier League, Bayswater Chinese played against Manchester United at home.

When the referee Andre Marina blew the whistle to start the game, the 9 fans in the stadium cheered deafeningly, and the home team fans cheered for the Bayswater Chinese.

The home team took the lead, with Lewandowski kicking the ball to Walcott.

The Englishman sent a return pass straight to Javi Martinez at the bottom of the centre circle.

The Spaniard turned and passed the ball to the right.

As soon as Kyle Walker got the ball, Manchester United winger Juan Mata had already rushed in front of him.

This forced Kyle Walker to pass back and play the ball to Kompany.

Forward Rooney rushed in front of Kompany and forced the Belgian to pass the ball back to the goalkeeper.

But Fat Lu refused to give in and continued to rush forward.

Courtois was forced to kick the ball forward directly.

This step-by-step pressing at the opening seemed to become a footnote of Manchester United’s game.

In this game, Yang Cheng still adopted the 433 formation, but due to the two previous and subsequent Champions League quarter-final knockout matches, he made appropriate rotations.

Goalkeeper: Courtois;
Defence: Ryan Bertrand, Thiago Silva, Vincent Kompany and Kyle Walker;
Midfield: Javi Martinez in the back, with Toni Kroos and Aaron Ramsey in front;

Forwards: Hazard, Lewandowski and Walcott.

Compared with the away game against Bayern three days ago, Yang Cheng rotated a total of seven positions in the starting lineup in this game.

But Yang Cheng still retained Toni Kroos, who has performed very well recently, in the starting lineup.

Manchester United was on high alert, changing their previous 4231 formation to a three-defensive-midfielder formation.

Goalkeeper: David de Gea

Defence: Evra, Ferdinand, David Luiz and Phil Jones;
Midfield: Park Ji-sung, De Rossi and Carrick form the three defensive midfielders;
Forwards: Juan Mata, Rooney and Robben.

Judging from the game lineup, it is a bit like 433, but in fact, Juan Mata often retreats and plays in the midfield and forward line, with Rooney and Robben in front.

Therefore, Manchester United’s lineup is a bit like a 4312 formation.

In short, very irregular.

But when the game really started, Manchester United took the initiative to exert pressure as soon as the match started.

Ferguson’s team tried to put pressure on Bayswater Chinese through active pressing in the frontcourt, especially the team’s overall running.

But this situation only lasted for 6 minutes.

Afterwards, Manchester United gradually retreated and adopted a defensive counterattack posture.

This is basically in line with Yang Cheng’s pre-match prediction of Ferguson.

Manchester United still focuses on stability today!

Fletcher is sick, Anderson is injured, Giggs is old, and Scholes has retired.

So Manchester United’s midfield is said to have three defensive midfielders, but in fact it is not particularly stable.

On the other hand, the Chinese in Bayswater.

Although they were temporarily contained at the beginning, they quickly stabilized and gradually pushed forward the defense line.

Not only the entire midfield and frontcourt, but even the single defensive midfielder Javi Martinez, actively advanced to grab the ball.

This quickly helped the team gain an advantage in midfield.

From the 6th minute, when Manchester United began to retreat, the Chinese in Bayswater took advantage of their home court and continued to put pressure on Manchester United.

In the 9th minute, Walcott made a cross from the right, and Lewandowski’s header was blocked by David Luiz.

In the 14th minute, Hazard got the ball on the left and suddenly started dribbling, skillfully dribbling with his left and right feet, and broke through between Carrick and Phil Jones.

The Belgian dribbled the ball to the front of the penalty area and faced David Luiz, passing the ball behind him.

Lewandowski cut diagonally into the left side of the penalty area and shot, but it went slightly wide.

Although they failed to hit the target, the attack by the Chinese in Bayswater was still quite threatening.

Yang Cheng’s team continued to launch offensives.

Just seven minutes later, the team had another good chance.

Aaron Ramsey’s lob pass was met by Lewandowski who headed the ball to the right.

Walcott quickly cut in behind the defense and volleyed the ball near the right corner of the small penalty area.

This attack was very beautiful, but De Gea made a wonderful save at the critical moment and pushed the ball out of the baseline.

Although the subsequent corner kick failed to pose a threat, Yang Cheng still applauded his players on the sidelines.

The game was almost one-sided.

The Bayswater Chinese continued to plan threatening attacks.

Manchester United focused on defensive counterattacks.

But as the game progressed, everyone was surprised to find that under the wave after wave of attacks from the Chinese in Bayswater, the Red Devils only defended and did not counterattack.

The best offensive opportunity of the first half came in the 40th minute when the Bayswater Chinese launched an attack on the right.

Kyle Walker dribbled past the defense quickly, crossed the center line, and made a straight pass to Walcott’s feet.

The little tiger dribbled the ball along the right sideline and when he reached the edge of Manchester United’s penalty area, he made a horizontal pass to Kyle Walker, then quickly bypassed Evra and sprinted at the fastest speed, diagonally into the penalty area from the right side outside the penalty area.

When Kyle Walker received the ball, he did not realize in time that Walcott wanted him to pass the ball directly. Instead, he stopped the ball for a moment and shot directly.

This made Walcott, who was unguarded in the penalty area, spread his hands helplessly, as if questioning Kyle Walker: Didn’t you see that I ran into the gap?
As long as the ball is passed to me, I will have a one-on-one chance!
Yang Cheng was also speechless on the sidelines.

Kyle Walker is like that.

Sometimes he gets it, sometimes he doesn’t. God knows what’s going on with him?
Or rather, many English players are basically like this.

Walcott is actually a relatively smart and intelligent player.

The first half ended with 0-0.

The game was very intense and fast-paced, but neither side was able to score.

Bayswater Chinese had 7 shots, but only 1 was on target.

The ball possession rate reached a very good 62.5%.

Manchester United only had 2 shots, 0 of which were on target.

Judging from the entire game, it was intense but not exciting enough.

For fans who are familiar with and like the Premier League, this is still a very exciting match.

But there won’t be many goals.

It is clear that Ferguson’s team will focus on defense and counterattack in this game.

They have a physical advantage!

After all, the Chinese in Bayswater had fought hard against Bayern before, while Manchester United was just waiting for the opportunity.

During the half-time break, Yang Cheng continued to encourage the players and also asked them to remain patient.

“I have basically guessed Ferguson’s intention now.”

“Manchester United’s attacking firepower is not very strong this season, mainly because they lack an outstanding spearhead.”

Berbatov is old and his form is declining rapidly. Hernandez and Rooney are not the kind of spearheads who can hold up the central defenders, which has led to problems in Manchester United’s offense.

“But Ferguson put all his weapons on the bench.”

Who are sitting on the bench for Manchester United in this game?
Welbeck, Hernandez, Berbatov, Ashley Young, Valencia, Rafael, Amos.

Rafael is the defender and Amos is the backup goalkeeper.

The other five players are all frontcourt attackers.

This is already a very obvious hint.

Ferguson’s strategy was to defend tightly and fight with the Chinese in Bayswater to consume their opponent’s ball.

In the second half, when the Chinese in Bayswater began to feel the pressure, Manchester United made another effort.

“Believe me, after the second half starts, don’t rush, continue to play steadily, suppress the opponent, and pay attention to the defense line.”

Yang Cheng’s eyes swept across the four players on the back line, the goalkeeper and the defensive midfielder Javi Martinez.

They all nodded.

“We have to be mentally prepared, this game may be decided by one goal!”

“They have a killer weapon, and so do we!”

……

After the change of sides in the second half, the situation basically continued the trend of the first half.

Neither team made much of a switch.

Bayswater Chinese won three consecutive corner kicks at one point, but failed to create any threat.

Obviously, Ferguson also specifically practiced set-piece attack and defense tactics.

This has been the forte of the Chinese at Bayswater in the past few years and Manchester United also attaches great importance to it.

It was not until 55 minutes later that the Chinese players in Bayswater launched another offensive.

But they are not good opportunities.

And in the 65th minute, Ferguson made the first substitution of the game.

Center forward Welbeck replaced Park Ji-sung.

Manchester United officially changed its formation to 4231.

This is actually the formation that Manchester United is most familiar with this season.

After the substitution, Rooney moved to the left, Juan Mata played as a number ten, and Welbeck went to the front.

When there is no qualified center forward, Welbeck can only be used.

Yang Cheng also quickly made the first substitution.

In the 68th minute, Pogba replaced Toni Kroos.

This substitution became the turning point of the game.

Manchester United began to actively counterattack and was willing to invest manpower in the counterattack.

This brought about a slight turnaround in the game, and the Red Devils began to take the initiative in the game.

But the advantage of the Chinese in Bayswater remains.

In the 77th minute, Javi Martinez fouled Welbeck while marking him and was shown a yellow card.

But just one minute later, Bayswater Chinese seized the opportunity for a quick counterattack. Kyle Walker received the ball from Aaron Ramsey on the right, dribbled forward quickly, and made a straight pass into the penalty area.

This time Kyle Walker’s pass was timely and Walcott quickly caught up.

But due to Ferdinand’s interference, the shot angle was too small and hit the side net directly.

Ferguson immediately made a second substitution.

Ashley Young replaces De Rossi.

After the substitution, Manchester United’s defense did not move and the formation changed to 4132.

This clearly means strengthening the offense.

The physical fitness of the Chinese players at Bayswater has also declined significantly.

Yang Cheng made two consecutive substitutions in the 80th minute.

Harry Kane replaces Lewandowski.

Gareth Bale replaces Hazard.

The two substitutions were made at the same time, which aroused cheers from the fans and alertness from Ferguson.

Obviously, Ferguson did not expect that Yang Cheng would replace two players in one go.

The Manchester United coach still walked to the sidelines and reminded his players to keep a close eye on Gareth Bale.

This kid is a dangerous person!

The game continues.

As time went by, the two head coaches made substitutions and the game became more and more tense.

Everyone knew that both sides began to put all their forces and hopes into the last 10 minutes or so.

This also made everyone hold their breath.

Although Manchester United began to improve on the field, it was still difficult to form an effective attack.

The defense of the Chinese in Bayswater is not to be underestimated!

In the 89th minute, Carrick made a long diagonal pass and transferred the ball to the right side of the Bayswater Chinese penalty area.

Evra moved forward quickly and tried his best to catch up.

But Kyle Walker was one step ahead, cleared the ball with one foot and kicked it forward hard.

The ball didn’t go far.

Harry Kane ran back, judged the landing point, and kicked the ball off.

But Ferdinand suddenly rushed up from behind, first confronted Harry Kane, causing the England center to stagger and the ball to not stop, then kicked the ball back to the front.

Aaron Ramsey stepped forward quickly and passed the ball to Pogba.

When the French midfielder stopped the ball, he made a skillful Marseille turn, dribbled past Juan Mata, suppressed the Spaniard with his body, and sent a long pass with his left foot, which was accurately sent to the frontcourt and landed behind the Manchester United defense.

Gareth Bale was like an arrow shot from a bow, he had already shaken off Phil Jones and was rushing forward at an extremely fast speed.

All 9 fans in the stadium exclaimed in unison.

Then came the cheers from Bayswater’s Chinese fans.

Gareth Bale sprinted at a very fast speed, ahead of everyone, and caught up with Pogba’s pass on the left.

But David Luiz’s defensive speed is also very fast.

Gareth Bale controlled the ball and David Luiz had already retreated to his side.

But the Welshman now has a wealth of experience.

Without waiting for David Luiz to gain his footing, he pretended to cut inside, scaring David Luiz into quickly blocking him.

As soon as the Brazilian defender shifted his center of gravity, Gareth Bale dribbled the ball with his right foot, stepped forward with his left foot, and suddenly accelerated, instantly getting rid of David Luiz.

Gareth Bale caught up with the ball at an extremely fast speed and dribbled into Manchester United’s penalty area from the left.

At this moment, the only person standing in front of Gareth Bale is goalkeeper De Gea.

The Welsh player continued to dribble the ball closer and closer to the small penalty area.

De Gea kept adjusting his position, guarding against Gareth Bale’s sudden kick.

But just when De Gea was about to collapse, Gareth Bale suddenly rubbed the ball sideways with his left foot and easily lifted the ball to the right corner of the small penalty area.

Walcott rushed over, pushed the ball with his right foot, suppressed the momentum of the ball and sent it into the unguarded goal.

Because of the force of the shot, the little tiger stumbled, fell to the ground and rolled over on the grass.

But he immediately got up and rushed to the sidelines.

Behind him was the whistle of referee Marina, indicating that the goal was valid.

The entire Wembley Stadium once again turned into a sea of ​​celebration!
