Chapter 658 How about you score another goal?
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!"
"In the 21st minute, Su Dong equalized the score for Bayern, 1-1!"
"It's a very exciting goal, which is definitely a reflection of Su Dong's personal ability!"
After Su Dong scored the goal with a volley, he quickly rushed out of the court, running all the way and kissing the ring on his left hand.
The Manchester United fans in the entire Old Trafford stadium were exclaiming. Even now, they still didn't know how the ball went in. They didn't know how Su Dong got past Vidic. They saw the man turn around, but where was the ball? How did it suddenly pass?
When Su Dong rushed to the sidelines and was surrounded by his teammates, the big screen in the stadium was replaying the slow-motion footage of the goal.
Modric passed the ball, Su Dong first deceived Vidic with a fake move, then he knocked the ball with his right heel, letting the ball pass under Vidic's crotch, and then he turned around and broke through Vidic's defense. The whole process happened in the blink of an eye.
Heel kick, crotch pass, ball-pass...
When these three difficult elements are combined in one goal, this in itself is enough to prove the difficulty of this goal.
The live broadcast of the game also gave a special close-up of Vidic. The Serbian central defender covered his face with a helpless and frustrated expression, obviously feeling speechless about Su Dong's performance tonight.
He tried his best, but still couldn't stop Su Dong. What could he do? "A very, very wonderful goal from Su Dong."
"Bayern equalised, now it's 1-1, and it was a valuable away goal."
"This is indeed a little hard for Manchester United to accept. After all, this is their home ground. I wonder if Ferguson will adopt a more aggressive tactical approach?"
…
Ferguson was so depressed watching from the sidelines that he didn't even notice that the gum in his mouth had fallen out.
After chewing for more than twenty minutes, it was already tasteless.
But the terrible thing is that the score on the field has been tied.
Ferguson had an urge to go crazy because he had worked so hard for so long before the game and only managed to score a goal against Bayern. However, after leading for more than ten minutes, they were equalized by Su Dong.
How big of a blow will this be to the players' morale?
Ferguson looked at the Manchester United players on the field and knew very well what was going on.
He has been coaching for so many years and has rich experience. He knows exactly what problems will arise in what situations.
So he suppressed his dissatisfaction, immediately walked to the sidelines, called Ferdinand and Carrick over, and signaled them to keep their composure and not panic, and to stabilize their defense first.
At this time, not losing the second goal is more important than anything else.
Stay stable first, then slowly look for opportunities.
If we concede a second goal right away, the game will really be over.
Not only was the first round ruined, but the second round was also ruined.
…
After celebrating the goal, Su Dong walked back to the center circle. At this time, Ronnie was standing in the center circle waiting for the kick-off.
The Portuguese glanced at Su Dong and turned away with a cold snort.
He was really embarrassed.
Just now he was still arrogant, provocative, and proud. Now, Su Dong has also scored a goal, so what should be counted? Su Dong walked happily to the center circle and smiled at Ronnie, who looked embarrassed and deliberately ignored him on the court.
"Ronnie, I scored a goal too!"
"Nonsense, I'm not blind." Ronnie replied unhappily.
"So, you see, what I said just now was right, scoring a goal is really not that difficult."
The people around almost went crazy after hearing this.
Damn, isn't this too Versailles? I know you scored a lot of goals, but is that necessary?
It's not difficult for you, but do you know how difficult it is for other players to score a goal? "How about you score another one? Then I'll chase you for another one?" Su Dong suggested with a smile.
Ronnie even had the urge to tear Su Dong apart with his bare hands.
Damn, you said you wouldn't show off after scoring a goal? Why are you showing off? It's just a goal, isn't it? Is it necessary to show off like this?
Tsk, as if no one has ever scored a goal! …
The game starts again.
Ferguson's adjustments had an immediate effect.
The old coach is the old coach. His prestige in Manchester United is extremely high. When he says how to play, the players on the field immediately adjust accordingly and never dare to make any compromises.
Rooney and Tevez retreated, and together with the midfield and backcourt, Manchester United continued to adopt a strict defensive strategy.
Bayern also firmly controlled the situation on the field, constantly organizing and planning offensives.
Su Dong’s game strategy was also very clear: charge when there was an opportunity and consume when there was no opportunity.
Facing an opponent like Manchester United, it is basically impossible to take any shortcuts, because the Red Devils' hard power is there, and Ferguson's keen eyes will not allow the team to make any major mistakes.
Therefore, there is really no better way to deal with Manchester United, we can only fight to the death.
Or they could make a fierce charge like they did just now, but Bayern would also be very exhausted.
So sometimes you just need to slow down and take it easy.
Su Dong has his own way of playing.
He would constantly wear down the opposing central defenders in a variety of ways, the most common of which was running and pulling them along.
When people consume too much physical energy, their willpower will become weak and they will be more likely to make mistakes.
Not to mention the technical distortion and so on.
Of course, the premise of consuming the opponent is also based on the premise that Su Dong completes the tasks given by the coaching staff.
In fact, Heynckes really wanted Su Dong to consume the opponent's central defender. In this way, even if Su Dong did not score a goal, in the second half of the second half, when his physical energy was almost consumed, replacing him with Klose, Olic or Podolski, and now adding Thomas Muller, would be a very good choice and the effect would be very good.
This is actually a conspiracy of Bayern.
The opponent may not follow, but if he does not, Su Dong will have the opportunity to get the ball and create a threat.
Therefore, many times the opponent has no choice but to follow or not, and can only risk his life to keep up with the gentleman.
…
"Vidic's numbers tonight were a bit bad."
Assistant coach Mike Phelan handed Ferguson a piece of paper with numbers written on it.
Ferguson took it and opened it. His brows frowned even more tightly and his mouth opened slightly, as if he had uttered a swear word, but no one heard the sound and no one knew whether it was true or not.
"He's the player with the most playing time this season," Ferguson said as he handed the note back to Mike Phelan.
He could see that when Su Dong started the game, he kept attacking O'Shea and Ferdinand, but it was mostly a feint. He was actually targeting Vidic and Evra, especially Vidic.
As the team's defensive pillar this season, Vidic's performance has been remarkable, and his contribution is even not inferior to Cristiano Ronaldo. He is the team's major contributor this season.
With his ability and Manchester United's strength, he should have no problem dealing with the Premier League and domestic cup competitions. However, when facing a super-high-intensity game like Bayern, the problem of excessive fatigue was exposed.
Ferguson had predicted this, but Manchester United no longer has a suitable central defender.
Is it possible that Vidic was left alone just because he was tired?
In the final analysis, it’s really fucked up that the Premier League has no winter break!
Not to mention giving a month, let alone asking for a month and a half of rest like Bayern. As long as they are given half a month, Manchester United will definitely be full of energy in the second half, and every player will be screaming when he or she takes the field.
But now, there is no way.
"Tell Fletcher and Anderson not to move forward, protect the defense line and the flanks for me!" Ferguson said fiercely.
This is basically telling the players on the field that defense comes first, stabilize the defense first, and then find a way to attack.
If you are not sure, don't push forward! "It's really damn Su Dong!" Ferguson had the urge to go crazy.
How could there be such a monster in this world? ...
The game began to enter a stalemate.
Bayern was quite satisfied with the score of 1:1 and was not in a hurry to defeat the opponent in one bite.
Heynckes is also an old fox. He knows better than anyone that when facing a team like Manchester United, anxiety is the most deadly, so he kept calling on the players on the sidelines to stay calm and asked them to be patient.
Although Bayern's players are not very old, they have all experienced the test of major competitions and are no longer the rough teenagers they used to be. Especially after winning the Champions League last season, they have accumulated rich experience and have a clear understanding of the cruelty of the Champions League knockout stage. Therefore, Heynckes' call was also heard by them.
As a result, a balanced situation emerged on the court, with both sides attacking and defending, but no one could create a great opportunity.
Ronnie made a breakthrough to the left of the center, causing Mascherano to foul, winning a free kick opportunity in the frontcourt, and accurately sent out a free kick with a very good arc, but Neuer steadily judged the path of the ball and directly saved the ball.
Bayern also had a threatening attack, but the cooperation between Sudong and Ribery failed to break through Manchester United's defense. Ribery was surrounded by Ferdinand and O'Shea in the penalty area and lost the ball.
This also made everyone realize that it was not that Manchester United's defense was too poor, but that Su Dong's strength was too strong.
Try changing other players? They will be killed by Manchester United in minutes! Su Dong still kept running and pulling, consuming Manchester United's two central defenders, especially Vidic.
Ferdinand is more in charge of the defense, while Vidic is mainly responsible for the Soviet Union.
Because of this, the Serbian central defenders are more exhausted.
Su Dong was not in a hurry. He remained calm and waited patiently for his opportunity.
He was already quite experienced, and he knew that even if there were no mistakes in the first half, there would be in the second half, so why should he worry? Time kept passing in this stalemate.
The fourth official on the sidelines raised the sign for two minutes of extra time.
The players who had been fighting on the court for forty-five minutes couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Many of them were almost exhausted.
In this high-intensity, fast-paced Champions League knockout match, physical energy consumption is always many times greater than that of ordinary games.
Manchester United got a chance to counterattack quickly after intercepting the ball in the midfield, trying to pass the ball behind them to find Tevez, but Pepe chased back quickly and used his body to block the Argentine striker before Tevez and stopped the ball in the penalty area.
Pepe stopped the ball and turned around. Before Tevez could get close to him, he kicked the ball towards the front court.
Unexpectedly...
