Chapter 26 - Come off the bench
Manchester United’s strength is indeed a lot stronger than Everton in front of it, plus the advantage at home, not to mention that Moyes has developed a defensive counterattack tactic, even if Moyes wants the team to play against Manchester United, it is estimated that he must be beaten. Manchester United called back.
Although Keane is not on the court, Manchester United has launched attacks through two wings. Ronaldo and Saha both have very strong offensive capabilities. Together with Scholes’ scheduling in the middle, Everton’s midfield still has no Ways to parry.
But Everton started as a defender, and naturally it is not so unpunished. Although Manchester United attacked very fiercely, under Everton’s defensive posture, even if he had the advantage, there was no way to create a real threat.
In the first 20 minutes, Manchester United’s most threatening offense was Scholes’ long shot near the front of the penalty area, but unfortunately missed slightly.
Everton’s tenaciousness was completely beyond Ferguson’s expectations. Last season, his Scottish fellow Moyes did a good job and led Everton to relegation successfully. At that time, Moyes had entered Ferguson’s sight.
Today’s Everton’s performance even surprised Ferguson. Even though Manchester United is not the strongest Manchester United today, at Old Trafford, there aren’t many teams that can withstand such a strong offensive from Manchester United, especially Ever. Dayton is still a relegation team, which is even more rare.
Of course, Ferguson will not be too worried, Everton does not even have the ability to counterattack, it is difficult to defend by defense alone.
Waldi was sitting on the bench, watching his teammates defensively, hoping that he could also rush to the court and fight with his teammates. Sitting on the bench was really too hard.
“Young people, be patient, don’t worry, is it not normal to face Manchester United’s full-field defense?”
Perhaps seeing the restless posture in Valdina, substitute goalkeeper Wright said to Vardi in a tone of coming.
Vardi nodded silently. He knew the helplessness of the defensive counterattack team. On the court, he was always crushed by opponents in the backcourt. It took much patience to persevere. Persevere, and there was a chance to see the light.
Everton didn’t make it into the Champions League by defensive counterattack!
Later myth, Leicester City, won the Premier League by relying on defensive counterattack!
At the end of the first half, although Manchester United was on the offensive, they still failed to break Everton’s goal. The Red Devils fans in the stands were very excited. In their view, Manchester United’s advantage is obvious. The goal will come sooner or later. Everton Can only tremble under Manchester United’s prostitution. Then he left Old Trafford with a failed result.
Waldi did not enter the locker room. When the main player returned to the locker room to listen to Moyes’ tactical arrangements, he and several other bench players had to warm up around the court to prepare for the bench.
was a little distracted when he warmed up. Although he successfully entered the big list, he did not know if he had a chance to play in this game, which is really a torment.
If Moyes only wants to draw at Manchester United at Old Trafford, he has little hope of playing, his defensive ability is limited, and he is not fully integrated into the team’s tactical system. Moyes will not let himself play unless he is crazy. .
Even if there are players who are in poor physical condition, then they are also the midfielders and defenders on the bench. At most, they will hand them towels.
Thinking of this, Valdi couldn’t help but get frustrated.
After the start of the second half, Everton was still in a perverse manner, all of them shrank to defend in the midfield and backcourt, and Manchester United made targeted adjustments. Alan Smith had a larger range of activities and involved Everton’s strength. Create more space for Ronaldo and Saha.
Manchester United’s offensive almost defeated the Everton defense. The continuous shot made the goal in front of the goal. Finally, Ronaldo’s shot outside the penalty area hit the plane with excitement and surprised everyone. Cold sweat.
C Ronaldo, who wasted the opportunity to break the door, regretfully hugged his head, grinning and venting his depression. If Manchester United failed to win this game, then Ronaldo who wasted the opportunity will definitely become the object of media criticism after the game.
Even Ferguson jumped on the sidelines, wasting such a good opportunity, he felt Ronaldo was dead!
Turn back and make sure he shoots every day!
As the game time was consumed a little, the expression on Ferguson’s face also froze. Everton’s defense gave him a feeling of water splashing. If there is no way to win this game, then Manchester United may be really It will be silent for a long time.
And Moyes, who stood in front of the visiting team’s bench, showed an intriguing expression, never underestimate an ambitious man.
It seems that Everton did not have any aggressiveness in this game, it was playing with the mentality of a draw or victory, but are you really sure that Moyes has no idea of winning?
When the game reached 65 minutes, Moyes walked back to the bench from the sidelines to allow several bench players to warm up. This is the adjustment signal he released.
Unlike several teammates with serious expressions and excitement, Valdy doesn’t have so many ideas. Everton is now so tight on defense. How could Moyes be replaced with an offensive player, so he asked all five substitutes to get up and warm up~ www.mtlnovel.com~ It’s basically Moyes’ smoke bomb, and it was eventually replaced by either central defender Yabo or midfielder Watson.
“We saw Everton’s backup player warming up. We wanted to come to Moyes to make adjustments. Which player will he put in to strengthen the defense?”
Obviously, the commentators also agreed with Valdi.
An unexpected thing happened. After the assistant coach called back the warm-up players, he called Vardi to his side alone and gave him a life threat.
“Stay near the midfield after playing for a while, and force Kleberson as much as possible during defense. If you have a chance to fight back, you must give full play to your advantage. This is our last chance!”
Vardi still couldn’t believe it. He didn’t listen to the assistant coach at all, but he nodded subconsciously. Even if he understood it, he knew he was going to play.
At this time, there was simply no time to think about why Moyes had to replace himself. Taking advantage of the chance of a dead ball, the fourth official had already raised a sign to signal a substitution.
Replaced by Vardy is forward McFadden. Because of his height, Ferguson has always helped defend the high-altitude ball in his penalty area. It seems that the only thing that has no obvious effect on the court is McFadden.
When walked off the court, the young striker’s expression was very frustrating. In this game, he had no room to play at all. It was like sleepwalking on the field. Now that he is replaced, it may mean that he has no chance.
After clapping reluctantly with Vardy, McFadden walked off the field, and Valdy stepped into the court for the first time.
Come on, this is the stage I have been looking forward to!
Let the whole world watch my performance!
At this moment, Valdi opened his hands as if he could embrace the whole world!
