knife guard

Chapter 616
Five minutes later, Hoffenheim finally freed up their hands to complete a counterattack. When Arshavin was being watched and Li Huan couldn't get away from the backcourt, Sarihovic, who had never been watched by anyone, suddenly exerted strength.

Sarihovic retreated to the backcourt to meet Ibetzberg, who was bullied by Rooney and O'Shea. Rooney, who was very brave in the opening game, wanted to make a pass from the bottom, but this time Ibetzberg desperately stood still, the little fat man Can't break through and have no chance to kick. After Rooney made a circle, he passed the ball to O'Shea and ran towards the ribs. The defense was tight, so he passed the ball to O'Shea again.

But no one expected Ibetsberg to be taken over by Rooney, but Sarihovic quickly followed up with O'Shea and hooked the ball before O'Shea reached out to touch the ball.

O'Shea didn't stop at once and rushed over. Sarihovic took the ball from the wing and drove straight into Manchester United's half, with Rooney chasing after him.

Seeing this situation, Arshavin quickly approached Sarihovic from the front field to the left side of his penalty area.Carrick followed Arshavin closely, and Anderson moved quickly to the side, trying to intercept Saryhovic.

At this time, he saw the wide field of vision of Sarihovic and the precision of his footwork. He saw that Tymoshchuk in the middle had already inserted at high speed, and immediately passed the ball long in front of Tymoshchuk.

Although Tymoshchuk is still far away from Manchester United's penalty area, there are only defenders and Ruud van Nistelrooy left at the front of Manchester United's penalty area. Being able to directly face the defender is a great opportunity to counterattack.

Tymoshchuk stopped the ball with his chest and quickly ran forward with the ball. Behind him, Fletcher and Carlos Tevez were desperately chasing back.At this moment, Timoshchuk is very envious of Li Huan's 10-meter speed in [-] seconds. If he has such a fast speed, he already has a chance to shoot from a long distance.

Seeing that Tevez was about to catch up, Tymoshchuk passed the ball to Ruud van Nistelrooy and quickly moved.

Ruud van Nistelrooy took the ball with his back, and Vidic and Ferdinand behind him. He understood the strength of these two men, and he didn't take chances thinking that he would have a chance to shoot. When Tymoshchuk passed the ball to him, he directly refused. The one who stopped the ball passed it diagonally to Timoshchuk, and gave Timoshchuk a certain space so that Timoshchuk could hit the goal directly.

Tymoshchuk also understood that with his speed and technique, it was impossible for him to stand alone and break through. Seeing Ruud van Nistelrooy making the ball, he was overjoyed, ran a few steps to keep up, and slammed the ball around 30 meters away. .

Tymoshchuk is a good long-range shooter. Without any interference, this shot was powerful and flew straight to the left side of the goal.

Veteran Van der Sar was not slow to react, he leapt forward and dived, but the ball was faster, and Van der Sar didn't even touch the ball.

It's a pity that Tymoshchuk's kick was slightly off-point, and the ball missed the post by about ten centimeters and flew out of the baseline.

Although the goal was not scored, it frightened the Manchester United players. The Hoffenheim fans on the scene were also encouraged and applauded one after another.

Rangnick felt much better after seeing this counterattack. He was most worried that no one would stand up after Li Huan and Arshavin were watched dead by Manchester United. Only the defense did not counterattack. There is no way to fight this game. Manchester United is not Arsenal. The ability is much stronger than Arsenal.

However, Manchester United's players' ability to respond to changes and self-regulation is much stronger than that of Hoffenheim. After Saryhovic organized a counterattack, he was immediately involved in the marking circle by Manchester United. It became very difficult to counterattack with the ball. up.

In the 8th minute, C Ronaldo caught the ball with his back under Li Huan's pressure, and wanted to turn around, but Li Huan was sticking to him tightly behind him, trying not to let C Ronaldo turn around, C Ronaldo had to walk back with the ball, trying to pull away Turn around again after a long distance, but Li Huan is also tied to him today, following Ronaldo every step of the way, Ronaldo just can't get rid of it.

Seeing that Li Huan had pushed Ronaldo to the center line, Anderson hurried over to respond. Just as Anderson came over to distract Ronaldo, Li Huan suddenly kicked Ronaldo's ball away, and Li Huan jumped from Ronaldo's side. Going around, wanting to chase the ball that was stabbed by him, Ronaldo subconsciously reached out and pulled Li Huan, and Anderson over there also rushed over and bumped into Li Huan.

Hoffenheim got a free kick, but near the center circle, it was impossible to shoot, so Li Huan passed the ball to Sarihovic, who asked Sarihovic to reorganize the distribution.Saryhovic sent a direct pass to Van Nistelrooy. Van Nistelrooy also held the ball with his back and wanted to cooperate with Arshavin and Saviola. Ni hesitated and the ball was destroyed by Vidic.

In the 11th minute of the game, Manchester United launched an attack in Hoffenheim's dense defensive area. After Hoffenheim tightened to the middle, Anderson suddenly split the side and played to O'Shea, O'Shea went to the bottom line Nearby, he vigorously pumped the ball towards the penalty area. This kick seemed to pass and shoot, and the ball spun and went straight to the near corner of the goal.

Hildebrand couldn't react in time and was yelling inwardly, but the ball hit his leg and bounced into the penalty area.

This change caught everyone by surprise, and there was chaos in the penalty area. Tevez reacted quickly, but was blocked by Simunić's tall body.Compaq didn't react, he was hit by the ball, and he tried to make a clearance but was in vain.Gustavo kicked again but it hit Simunić. Only then did Simunić feel it, and the ball hit Tevez again.

This time, more offensive players and defensive players flooded in. You kicked me, either you missed it, or you kicked someone else, but you couldn’t kick the penalty area. Goalkeeper Hildebrand and the fans Everyone was so scared that their hearts were empty, and no one knew that the kick changed the direction of the ball and flew into the goal.

At this time, Li Huan's reaction was faster. He simply kicked the ball out of the baseline, ending the chaotic situation in the penalty area.Instead of letting the situation get out of hand, it is better to give the opponent a corner kick.

Manchester United made detailed arrangements for the set kick. Anderson's right corner kick went forward. Ronaldo headed and then went far. There was a moment of chaos in Hoffenheim's penalty area. The next batch, and then the ball was passed near the baseline, Simunic stretched his leg to block and change the route of the ball, Evra volleyed with his right foot in the penalty area, to see that Hildebrand could not move, but the ball was on the goal line He was blocked by Li Huan with his foot, and then kicked out by Arshavin.

Seeing that Evra's shot was blocked by Li Huan from the goal line, the Hoffenheim fans let out a long sigh of relief, but Ferguson slowly lowered his raised hands, full of disappointment, he The three-axes plan was not completed, and Manchester United could no longer attack so fiercely in the following time.The attack organized by Sarihovic just now was very dangerous. If Li Huan had shot, Manchester United would have fallen behind.

Manchester United's series of offenses made Hoffenheim frightened. Not conceding a goal is due to hard work and luck. When Hoffenheim's players concentrated [-] points to prepare for defense, they suddenly found that Manchester United's offensive strength became weaker. The striker is still pressing in the frontcourt, but the midfielders are no longer following so closely, and the two full-backs have also retreated to their own half.

Rangnick was also taken aback. He didn't expect that Manchester United would suddenly retreat when they had a huge advantage, but now he also vaguely understood Ferguson's tactical plan for this game.

Rangnick waved his players up again, and regardless of Ferguson's goal, Hoffenheim had to win at home in order to take the lead before a showdown with Manchester United at Old Trafford. .

Hoffenheim began to press forward, not only in the midfield, but also in the back line as a whole to make offside, keeping the distance between the three lines, preventing Manchester United's three forwards from directly facing their own defense line, although it is so easy They were turned offside by the opponent's three speed forwards, but they had to take risks as long as they wanted to score goals.Although anti-offside is a bit dangerous, it is also a helpless move, because each of the three major forwards of Manchester United has the ability to shoot from long distances. Rooney is famous for his long shots. Ronaldo scored a long shot from 40 meters away in the last game. The shooting skills shocked everyone.You don't need any information about Tevez, just look at Tevez's two legs, you will know that his leg strength is amazing, and his long-range shooting is definitely not too bad.

Ferguson used tactics very cleverly. First, he attacked violently in the opening 10 minutes. Although he failed to achieve the goal of scoring, it also made Hoffenheim cautious when attacking and did not dare to press heavily. The number of players inserted in the back row was very small. , and did not dare to go deep into Manchester United's hinterland. In this way, it is almost impossible to break Manchester United's world-class defense by relying on two forwards, Arshavin and Sarihovic to attack.

Manchester United's counterattack is very simple, Rooney and Tevez are in the front, they pass a long pass, or the full-backs lead the ball forward, Rooney and Tevez return to the backcourt, the ball is given to Rooney and Tevez directly Counterattack with the ball, this kind of counterattack looks slow, but it is relatively safe and does not require too many troops. Rooney and Carlos Tevez's strong personal abilities can also catch the opponent's defensive flaws.

Li Huan kept dodging and moving, trying to catch the ball from his teammates, but Ronaldo was always by his side today, which puzzled Li Huan. He didn't know what fascination soup that old man Ferguson had poured into Ronaldo. It actually made Ronaldo, who has always liked to use the stadium as a stage, willing to suppress himself.

Now Li Huan is caught in a dilemma. He doesn't dare to assist easily without the ball at his feet. Manchester United's long pass is very good. With a big pass, C Roma can go straight to Huanglong.But being watched by Ronaldo, he had no chance to get the ball, so he could only pester Ronaldo patiently in the backcourt.

Whenever Manchester United counterattacked, the tasks of Li Huan and Ronaldo were reversed, and it became Ronaldo to respond to the assists of Manchester United teammates, and Li Huan followed Ronaldo like a tarsus maggot, letting C Luo couldn't even touch the ball.

The phenomenon of the two gentlemen entangled together caused the commentator Huang Jianxiang to laugh, "The two gentlemen are competing with each other today. Everyone hopes to limit the opponent's performance, and he plays well, but now it seems that the two It is difficult to distinguish each other, and no one can do anything to the other. However, in such a match where sparks hit the earth, it is a pity that two gentlemen are missing. Let's see which player can break the deadlock first."

Li Huan does not want to exchange sons with Ronaldo. In addition to Ronaldo, Manchester United, Rooney, Tevez, Carrick, and Anderson are all very good. The overall strength is stronger than that of Hoffenheim. Hoffenheim is at home. You must attack again, and the chance of being successfully countered by Manchester United is greater than the chance of Hoffenheim's attack.Li Huan must find a way to get rid of Ronaldo's defense. Li Huan knows Ronaldo's character very well. He is a selfish and proud guy. Once Li Huan has played, Ronaldo will not be able to calm down. He will definitely not sacrifice his offense. Come and guard yourself.

Li Huan pressed forward faster and harder, almost sticking to the midfielder. He knew that the chances of getting the ball in the backcourt were less, and it was better to go to the midfielder to get the ball. His teammates dared to pass the ball to him .

Sure enough, after Li Huan reached the midfield, Arshavin immediately moved closer to the side, looking for Li Huan to cooperate.

The three of them came together to make a fuss. Arshavin dribbled the ball and Li Huan quickly pasted it. The two exchanged positions. Li Huan took the ball away from Arshavin's feet, but Arshavin blocked Ronaldo's. In front of him, Ronaldo has no chance to foul Li Huan.

Li Huan finally got the chance to control the ball, feeling relieved, he immediately made a quick kill along the touchline towards Manchester United's half.

Ronaldo also got rid of Arshavin's obstruction at this time, and chased Li Huan with all his strength.

Ronaldo's speed is about the same as that of Li Huan, and Li Huan must be slower with the ball. In a blink of an eye, when Ronaldo and Li Huan are about to chase head to tail, Li Huan suddenly dials the ball to the middle, as if he has eyes behind his back. .

Ronaldo was already running at full speed, but he didn't expect that Li Huan would suddenly change direction. Unable to control his body, he continued to rush forward for another two or three meters before stopping. When he looked again, Li Huan had already cut to the middle. , Straight into the restricted area in the past.

The audience was silent!
More than 3 Hoffenheim fans stood up and waited.

They are all waiting for this moment. Li Huan's counterattack with the ball has always been the most beautiful picture and the most beautiful movement in the Rhein-Neckar Arena. Which strong team is it.

After Li Huan got rid of Ronaldo, Ferguson stood up nervously. He strode to the sidelines and shouted to the players to pay attention to the side defense.Don't let Li Huan rush up.

The ferocious Fletcher rushed over first. This guy's defense has always been quick, accurate and ruthless, and he believes in the Keen doctrine that if he can't defend you, he must scare you.

Seeing Li Huan dribbling the ball from the road, Fletcher shoveled towards Li Huan. Although his feet did not leave the ground, but he shoveled head-on, at the speed of Li Huan and Fletcher, even if he did not shovel his ankle If it touches any place, it will hurt a lot.

How could Li Huan give him a chance to shovel the ball? Seeing Fletcher's aggressive appearance, Li Huan was prepared in his heart. Letcher scored the ball.

Carrick and Fletcher have been partners for many years, and they communicate with each other. Fletcher tackled the ball, and he immediately followed the past to grab the ball. Rick running over may not be able to grab the ball first.But Carrick still rushed over without hesitation. No matter whether he could touch the ball or not, Li Huan, who was dribbling the ball, had to stop it. Now it was almost the distance of Li Huan's free kick shot, and it would be very difficult to foul later. .

Li Huan used his speed to the extreme, and finally got the ball farther away from Carrick, and then flicked the ball again, flashing past the other side of Carrick's supporting leg.In a hurry, Carrick wanted to reach out to catch Li Huan, but he couldn't.

Li Huan passed Carrick, saw the range of 30 meters, and wanted to shoot, but found that Saviola and Ruud van Nistelrooy had already started running towards the penalty area. Li Huan changed his mind and continued to dribble forward. Wait for Manchester United's central defender and Anderson to come up to defend.

Vidic and Anderson took pictures when Li Huan had just passed two people in a row. They didn't dare to come to defend one by one, and they surrounded Li Huan together. Li Huan saw Ruud van Nistelrooy took Ferdinand away, and Saviola was already unmarked. While running, he looked back and asked for the ball.He immediately rubbed the ball, the ball rushed forward, flew over the heads of Vidic and Anderson, and flew towards Saviola.The ball was passed by Li Huan's favorite backspin. The ball hit the bottom of the ball. Li Huan's explosive power was good, and the ball was short, flat and fast, and it spun back at the end.It is easiest for the goalkeeper to make a mistake in judgment.

Saviola looked back at Li Huan while running, and was overjoyed when he saw Li Huan pass an overhead pass. This was practiced in training. He knew the characteristics of Li Huan's pass, and he didn't look back immediately. He rushed forward quickly, and the ball fell just two meters in front of him. Saviola easily jumped up and unloaded the ball with the back of his feet.

Van der Sar came out to take the ball the moment Li Huan passed the ball, but Li Huan passed the ball very strangely, low and flat, spinning back, flying fast at the beginning, slow in the middle, and finally ran back, Van der Sar Halfway through the attack, Sa felt that he had made a mistake in judging the distance, and he immediately backed away.

It was already too late at this time, Saviola saw Van der Sar come back halfway from his attack, how could he not seize this great opportunity, he gently rubbed the ball up and lobbed the goal.

Van der Sar saw Saviola lob the goal, he jumped up and hit the ball.But Saviola's lob shot was also very accurate. Van der Sar didn't reach the ball. The ball flew past his fingertips, and then fell straight down to the goal.
