Friends of the audience, this is the 12th round of the English National League. Kidderminster vs. New Manchester United is live. I am a football commentator, Scarlett Elland. I am in Kidderminster right now. The Agborough Stadium brings you live coverage of the match.

In front of the TV, Scarlett's beautiful face appeared in front of the citizens of Manchester. This was the first time she appeared on live TV. Although she had received some training in this area before, the rhythm of her speech was still a bit flustered.

Through the live broadcast, we can see that the two stands of the Agborough stadium seem very empty. According to the assessment of the on-site staff, there may be less than 2,000 fans who came to watch the game today, and there are nearly 800 of them. Made the long trek from Manchester with the new United, and they're sitting in the stands behind me!

The TV camera immediately shifted to the top of Scarlett's head. Immediately, a group of fans wearing the new Manchester United away uniform burst into applause. Many fans rushed to the camera and shouted loudly: New Manchester United, come on!

Come on, new Manchester United! Jim in front of the TV also waved and shouted, his expression was more like watching the game on the spot.

Jim, keep your voice down, don't be so excited, you know? The taxi driver beside him grabbed him.

Jim immediately nodded with a smirk.

By the way, we're watching in the office now. What should we do when we get out of the car? Is there a live broadcast of this game? Another companion asked with concern.

Well, of course, I heard that it's also the sound of live TV, and then we can just listen to the radio! Jim replied, but he couldn't take his eyes off the TV screen for a moment.

The starting lineups of both sides for this game have already come out. Kidderminster still uses the main force of the team since this season. It seems that they attach great importance to this game, but the starting lineup of the new Manchester United seems a bit unexpected. .” Scarlett appeared in front of the TV screen again.

The striker is the Serbian and Montenegro teenager Zikic. There is no doubt about it. He is now the strongest firepower of the new Manchester United; the left and right wingers are Ivica Olic and Alexander Hleb. Leitch's first appearance on the left is somewhat surprising; the midfield configuration is Juninho Jr., Michael Essien and Christian Poulsen; the defense is from left to right. Patrice Evra, Eric Abidal, Sylvain Distin and Greta Stansson, with captain Schmeichel in goal.

When we got this starting lineup, we all felt a little strange. First of all, Olić replaced Krzynovic as a left winger. Could it be that the Poles were injured? Chi Willens? Why Orci?

Secondly, the configuration of the midfield is also worrying. Junior Juninho's performance this season is completely inferior to his worth of up to 800,000 pounds. Although the young player Essien has occasional flashes, his overall performance is not stable enough, and He doesn't have enough experience to take on such an important game.

The last is the thickness of the team's bench. Bruce brought five substitutes. In addition to the substitute goalkeeper Almunia and defender Kevin Evan, Darren Lyons, Ricky Willens and Crouch They are all sitting on the bench, which makes us worry about the new Manchester United's defense in this game, you know, Kidderminster's offensive firepower is quite terrifying.

Hey, the chick from the Manchester Evening News is talking bad about our new Manchester United again! Jim booed when he heard the shout.

For a long time, Scarlett's reports on the new Manchester United have been somewhat critical, so many new Manchester United fans have a bad impression of her.

Okay, there is not much time left for the game. We can see that players from both sides of the game walked into the field one after another. They shook hands with the referee first. Schmeichel guessed on behalf of the new Manchester United. The players began to return to their half. field, we can see that

In this game, the new Manchester United deployed a 4-5-1 tactic!

When Jim and the others heard this, they couldn't make any sound at once, and they just threw themselves into the TV with all their attention.

…………

When the referee blew the whistle to start the game, the No. 9 Kidderminster forward who kicked off the ball returned to the backcourt.

As a single striker, Zikic rushed to the hinterland of Kidderminster first. The opposing central defender saw Zikic pounced and immediately crossed to the full-back.

The full-back took two steps forward and crossed to the No. 6 midfielder who is at the back of the midfield.

On the 6th, he returned the ball and suddenly felt a gust of hot air rushing from behind him, as if his body was being held up by a wall, so he wanted to use his body to squeeze out a space, but he didn't know that the opponent squeezed back without letting him in at all. Make him stagger.

No. 6 is obviously also an experienced player. He was surprised by the opponent's strength, but he simply fell to the ground, as if he was severely fouled by the opponent.

Essien immediately stretched his hands, looked at the referee, and signaled that he didn't have any unnecessary movements.

The referee also ran over and signaled Kidderminster's No. 6 to get up quickly.

We can see that Michael Essien rushed to the opponent's half very quickly and tripped the opponent's midfielder. The slow motion shows that Essien did not make any extra moves. The only surprising thing is his Strong, according to our information, he is only 17 years old this year, with a height of 1.77 meters, but the opponent's No. 6 is a 29-year-old strong man with a height of 1.85 meters, but he was still easily knocked down by Essien!

This is the first time Essien appeared in the live TV camera, and his first impression was foul!

…………

…………

The game continued. The new Manchester United deployed a very tight defense in the midfield. The division of labor between the two midfielders was very clear. Paulson protected Juninho while also taking care of the defense. When you see the ball, you rush to grab it.

This young Ghanaian has excellent physical fitness and fast speed. Although he is not tall, he is good at his hands and feet. He can always try to break the ball from the opponent's feet.

Although after the break, it was impossible to become the new Manchester United's possession of the ball in many cases, but at least it slowed down Kidderminster's offensive rhythm, which made the home team's offense impossible to play in the first 15 minutes.

However, Kidderminster's offense could not be played, and the new Manchester United's offense was also limited, so the two teams did not even have a shot after the opening 15 minutes.

Such a game is undoubtedly dull, but it is also the most test of the team's technical and tactical level and overall strength.

We can see that the two teams have deployed heavy forces in the midfield, and obviously they both value this game very much. We can see that Kidderminster's defense against Zikic was very successful. The entire first half In the first 15 minutes, he failed to cause any threat to Kidderminster's goal.

However, the new Manchester United's defense in the midfield is also very successful. Essien, who is running all over the field, coupled with Paulson, who is getting more and more stable in defense, and Olic, who is tireless, makes the midfield of the new Manchester United. The field is quite tenacious, Kidderminster can't pass the opponent's midfield at all, so he has to choose a long pass!

But let's look at the defense of the new Manchester United. Distin is at the top, fighting for the first point. Almost all the long passes into the new Manchester United half are easily blocked by him. He is as tall as he is. He's 1.94m, weighs 88kg and is so fast that it's almost impossible for opposing forwards to get the ball from him.

Although in this crucial game, it is understandable for both sides to focus on defense, but if the current situation continues, unless the two sides make changes, otherwise, this game is likely to become an extremely dull 0:0! Scarlett makes her own judgment call when commenting.

But almost as soon as this sentence was finished, the situation on the field changed.

…………

…………

After 15 minutes in the first half, Kidderminster's defense against Zikic was as expected by Bruce, completely limiting the threat of Zikic, although their defense against the new Manchester United did not have much There is a way, but Bruce is obviously not going to continue to consume like this.

Walking out of the coach's bench and coming to the side of the court, Bruce looked at the little Juninho running on the court, shouted Ribeiro! and then made a gesture of change.

The players on the court, including Juninho Jr., Zigic and others, clearly saw Bruce's gesture, which was a gesture asking them to change their tactics.

After receiving this gesture, the players immediately knew what to do next.

Taking advantage of the chance that the ball went out of bounds, Paulson ran close to Juninho Jr., because Bruce arranged for Paulson to protect Juninho Jr., so the distance between the two was very close, and Juninho Jr. did not dare to leave Paulson too far.

Ribeiro, you should hold the ball more and be steady. Don't worry about losing the ball. If you lose the ball, there will be me and Michael!

Junior Juninho wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded towards Paulson.

In the 15 minutes of the first half, although his performance was not as horrible as before, it was relatively mediocre. He even believed that if Stephen Smith was replaced, he might do better than him.

Am I not as good as him?

Junior Juninho is not willing to admit it, and recently, he has strictly followed the diet and training content arranged by Professor Fryer, Derek, and the coaching staff. Now his weight has changed from the original 66 kg, rose to the current 69 kg.

Professor Fryer said that according to his height of 1.78 meters, as well as his technical characteristics and body shape, the best weight should be between 72-75 kg, but he was a little thin and lacking in confrontation ability before. Once he touches the opponent's body and fights, it is easy to deform his movements.

My body is now stronger than before, and I shouldn't be as afraid of confrontation as I was before! The boss is right, I should take the initiative, act more confident, be more like a core player, just like I used to be at Vasco da Gama.

Thinking of this, Juninho started running forward.

Essien cut off a pass from the opponent near the center line, looked up, and saw Juninho Jr. raised his hand not far away.

Almost without thinking, Essien passed him the ball.

The opponent's No. 6 midfielder obviously noticed Juninho early, and immediately stuck to him!
