The strongest waist king of the Red Devils

Chapter 18
With Carrick's goal, Manchester United led Roma 1:0 at home, and by virtue of the advantage of away goals, they took the initiative to advance.

This goal, according to the arrangement of Manchester United coach Ferguson before the game, deliberately hit the weak point of the left center of the Roma team, and finally found a chance.

In this game, Ronaldo mainly played on the right side. He wanted to use Ronaldo's speed and impact to suppress Roma's full-back Cassetti, who was very active in assists, and take advantage of the large space left by Cassetti's assists.

After all, Cassetti is not very young anymore, and his physical strength and speed cannot fully keep up with Ronaldo's rhythm. Once he is pressed for an assist, it will be difficult to return to the defense in time, leaving a large open area behind him.

At the same time, De Rossi, the midfielder of the Roma team, also likes to press the attack and is easy to lose his position in the midfield. Carrick, the core midfielder of the Manchester United team, will be targeted when the team is attacking. Plug in the back row, exclusively for De Rossi's position.

This time, it was this kind of targeted attack that allowed Manchester United to score smoothly and completely turned the situation around.

With this goal advantage, it's time to worry, but it's the turn of Roma.

In order to be able to score goals, regain the lead, and get a chance to advance, the Roma team had to aggressively attack.

And this is exactly in the arms of Manchester United, giving Manchester United more opportunities to counterattack.

Seeing the progress of the game, Ferguson finally breathed a sigh of relief, sitting on the chair, chewing gum while chatting and laughing with the assistant coach.

On the other hand, the head coach of the Roma team, Spalletti, has a serious and gloomy face.

The start was bad, and this game for the Roma team was difficult.

Sure enough, the trend of the whole game began to appear one-sided.

Only a few minutes later, Manchester United scored again.

In the 17th minute, Heinze received the ball from the left side with a rare assist, and chose to cross at the first time.

Giggs in the middle, after getting the ball, directly kicked the ball obliquely and knocked the ball into the middle.

There, Alan Smith, who ran to the position ahead of time, volleyed directly with his right foot, and the ball went straight to the upper right corner of the goal. Roma goalkeeper Doni once again looked at the ball and sighed.

Manchester United led Roma 2:0, and the total score came to 3:2.

For this goal, the Manchester United team played an exquisite cooperation. Several players involved in the offense all passed the ball with one kick, making it impossible for the defensive players of the Roma team to catch up.

Until Alan Smith scored, the Roma players couldn't even touch the ball and were completely passive. They could only watch Manchester United score.

This has an extremely powerful destructive effect on the morale of the Roman players.

And it's not over yet.

Just 1 minute later, the Roma team made a pass error. After Manchester United successfully intercepted the ball, they took advantage of the huge gap left by De Rossi and Cassetti to advance and gave the ball to Ronaldo on the right.

After C Luo got the ball, he used his speed and technique to quickly dribble the ball forward.

It's just that the Roma team's defense was in place this time and directly intercepted Ronaldo's ball.

However, although the ball was broken by the Roma players, the ball bounced because of too much force and fell to the feet of Manchester United striker Alan Smith.

This time, Alan Smith crossed the ball directly to the right before the Roma defenders pressed.

Giggs, who plugged in, took a few steps forward, chose a low pass, and gave it to Rooney in the middle.

Rooney rushed to the ball and pushed the ball. The football passed the Roma goalkeeper Doni and rolled into the lower left corner of the goal.

Manchester United led Roma 3:0 and led 4:2 in total, completely occupying the advantage of promotion.

Manchester United winger Giggs, veteran, has sent two assists.

The lagging Roman team immediately launched a crazy counterattack.

It is a pity that luck is not on Roma's side.

Mexes, Pizarro, Totti, and De Rossi's shots all failed to hit the goal and could not threaten Manchester United goalkeeper Van der Sar.

Even Williamson's close-range push in front of the small penalty area regrettably missed.

Unable to attack for such a long time, the Roma team also played more and more impatiently. In addition, they aggressively pressed the offense, giving Manchester United more room to counterattack.

In the 43rd minute of the game, Manchester United launched another counterattack, and it was Giggs again. After getting the ball, he directly distributed the ball near the center circle and gave it to Ronaldo on the right rib.

Facing the defense of Roma defender Chivu, Ronaldo used fake moves to sway Chivu away, and relying on his strong explosive power, he directly took the ball and cut in, and volleyed directly with his right foot.

With Ronaldo's goal, Manchester United led Roma 4-0 at home.

Such a big score completely exceeded the expectations of the Roma team, and made the Roma team completely passive.

Moreover, Manchester United's good luck continued in the second half.

In the 49th minute, Manchester United's corner kick was ejected, but Rooney quickly countered successfully.

Taking advantage of the chaotic formation of the Roma team, Giggs received a pass from Rooney and made another low pass directly on the left.

In the penalty area of ​​the Roma team, although Alan Smith did not touch the ball at the first point, he disturbed the defense of the Roma team and interfered with the judgment of the Roma team goalkeeper Doni, so that Ronaldo succeeded in outflanking the back point and scored easily.

Manchester United led Roma 5-0 at home.

Veteran Ryan Giggs sent out four assists!

Seeing the team's performance like this, and the score of 5:0, Manchester United coach Ferguson finally smiled easily.

By this time, the game had completely lost its suspense.

But after a few minutes, Manchester United continued to score.

This time, after Ronald got the ball, he used continuous feints to change the line, broke through the defense of Cassetti and Chivu, and successfully passed the ball before it went out of the bottom line.

After Heinze got the ball, he knocked back, and Carrick once again scored with his right foot.

Manchester United led Roma 6:0, and the total score came to 7:2.

Leading by a big score, Manchester United immediately began to make substitutions, replacing O'Shea with Evra, and replacing the veteran Ryan Giggs with Dong Fang.

Giggs, who sent out four assists, received warm applause from the home fans.

Afterwards, although the game had entered garbage time, the offensive of both sides remained unabated.

It wasn't until the 69th minute that Roma scored a face-saving goal.

De Rossi, who frequently attacked, did not waste this opportunity and scored captain Totti's cross.

And this goal also boosted the morale of the Roma team, which was behind by a large score, and made the Roma players eager to try.

However, seeing this scene, Ferguson once again disrupted the rhythm of the Roma team with substitutions.
