Chapter 74 Manchester United vs. Tottenham!

Mourinho tapped the tactical board and said in a serious tone: "Tottenham is a young team with speed, technology and physique. They are good at hierarchical high pressure and quick counterattacks, so we have to reduce the space behind us as much as possible."

"Their high-pressure tactics are basically accomplished through double-teaming, and they rely heavily on physical confrontation, accustomed to sticking to the ball holder from behind until they complete a steal or a dead ball."

"By the way, most of their pressing is on the edge of a penalty, and the referee often chooses to ignore it, so don't count on the referee."

Mourinho first clicked on a video and played it several times before continuing: "But this tactic has a fatal weakness, which is that it can use a large-scale transfer ball or through ball to break through Tottenham's defense in one go!"

Chu Feng looked at the screen seriously.

In the picture, William avoided Ali's pressing through delicate dribbling, and then passed the ball accurately to Morata on the weak side of Tottenham's defense.

"Of course, this requires players to have both skills and vision."

Mourinho's eyes fell on Chu Feng, "So our main tactic is to ensure the safety of the core area in the middle first, and then launch a long pass directly from the midfield."

"Lukaku and Ibrahimovic staggered their positions in the frontcourt to attract the attention of the defensive players."

"And at this time, Chu, I need you to go diagonally into the penalty area"

"Remember, this tactic requires the highest 'efficiency' because it will be difficult to create the same opportunity next time."

Chu Feng felt a huge pressure instantly and nodded vigorously.

After the 30-minute tactical meeting, the Manchester United players left one after another, and Chu Feng went to find Carrick to practice long passes.

Time flies, and it is October 28th.

Old Trafford.

There are huge crowds of people.

Red flags are flying and loud singing is echoing.

"Good evening, viewers, welcome to watch the 10th round of the Premier League."

“Manchester United vs Tottenham!”

"Before this game starts, let me tell you about the statistics of both teams."

"So far this season, Manchester United has won all their home games, while Tottenham has also won all three points away from home."

"This 'Double Dragon Meeting' between the home dragon and the away dragon is really interesting. No matter what the result of the match is, one side's undefeated record will be ended."

"However, in the last ten home games between Manchester United and Tottenham, Manchester United has achieved an overwhelming record of 8 wins and 2 draws."

"So I believe that Manchester United players will have some psychological advantages in this battle at Old Trafford tonight!"

“.”

In the player channel at this time.

Because most of the players on both teams were members of the England national team, they were chatting with each other casually and it was not as cold as imagined.

"Zlatan, this is your first appearance this season, are you nervous?"

Chu Feng made a joke.

"Tsk, this kind of emotion can't possibly happen to me."

Ibrahimovic curled his lips and said disdainfully.

But there was endless enthusiasm in his eyes. Finally returning to the court again, he wanted to prove to the world that he would not succumb to injuries.

Perhaps it is this personality that allows him to remain competitive at the age of 36.

The young Manchester United players immediately looked at him in admiration. Sometimes they wanted to imitate Ibrahimovic's way of speaking, but they couldn't get that flavor.

Son Heung-min next to him glanced around and stopped at one place for a moment.

Five minutes later.

Under the guidance of the referee team, players from both teams gradually walked out of the passage.

Old Trafford suddenly became noisy.

A huge TIFO was unfolded in the wind on the Sir Alex Ferguson stand. On it was a picture of a hideous and terrifying red devil. Its name was Fred.

There was also a line of words written below: "Welcome to your nightmare theater!!!"

Then Manchester United fans sang the team song in unison, filling the entire stadium with passionate melody.

However, Tottenham fans in the away stands were very unhappy because Tottenham's team song was also adapted from the famous American song "XXX Battle Hymn", and it was 20 years earlier than Manchester United, so they believed that Manchester United plagiarized their creativity.

So whenever Manchester United fans sing "Glory, Glory", they will add "Tottenham Hotspur", changing the meaning of the whole sentence to "Glory to Tottenham Hotspur".

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

While the fans of both teams were competing on the field, the players had already stepped onto the green field to make final preparations.

At this time, LeTV Sports' live broadcast room was already crowded.

Because of the media hype before the game and LeTV Sports management's decision to make the game free in order to attract viewers, and the game started at 7:30 pm in the prime time on China TV.

As a result, the number of people in the live broadcast room continues to rise, and the peak is expected to exceed seven million.

What is even more unexpected is that CCTV-5 did not choose the NBA match between the Warriors and the Mavericks, but instead broadcast the match between Manchester United and Tottenham.

That is to say, there may be more than ten million people in China sitting in front of the TV, including parents, teachers, students, and employees. Perhaps they are watching this game with the mentality of watching the fun, but it may leave a seed in the heart of some people, which will sprout and grow when the time is right.

Perhaps this is also an influence? Zhan Jun took a deep breath, adjusted to the best state, and began to explain.

"Here are the starting lineups for both teams!"

"Manchester United are in red jerseys, attacking from right to left. They still use a 4-2-3-1 formation. Goalkeeper:."

"Among them, our young player Chu Feng played at left midfield. He has performed extremely well in recent games and I believe everyone can see his improvement."

"I hope Xiao Chu can perform better today!"

"And the ones wearing white jerseys are Tottenham, they also lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, goalkeeper:."

"Although Spurs don't have any high-profile stars, they are technically sound, physically tough and defensively fierce, like a football mirror version of the Spurs across the Atlantic."

"The difference is that that team was old, whereas Spurs are full of life."

"Recall the two brief rises of the north London team at the beginning of the new century. The first was due to the speed of Bale, and the second was due to the accumulation of Pochettino's strength.

"Who will win the final victory tonight?"

“Let’s wait and see!”

The comments on the screen fell like snowflakes. - [Go, go, go!] - [Come on, Xiaochu, score a goal tonight!] - [Beat Son Heung-min!] - [Currently, Manchester United and Manchester City are both ranked first with 25 points, while Tottenham is ranked third with 20 points, Arsenal is ranked fourth with 16 points, and Manchester City's opponent is Huddersfield, which can be said to be a must-win.] - [So if Manchester United loses the game, Manchester City will be left behind. Don't underestimate these 3 points, which may be the key to winning the championship.] - [Both are 4-2-3-1 formations, which can clearly show the tactical level of the two head coaches.]
