The strongest waist king of the Red Devils

Chapter 208 Scholes' shot

Cristiano Ronaldo's free kick, brushing Herman Heradesson's hair, flew over the wall and quickly jumped towards the goal.

This time, David James reacted quickly, and he had already guarded against Ronaldo's direct free kick, and rushed towards the near corner of the goal without hesitation.

Because he was well prepared, David James successfully blocked Ronaldo's attack, stretched out his hand to block, and blocked the ball out of the baseline.

Seeing that the goal was not scored in the end, Ronaldo frowned angrily.

The corner kick was still taken by David Silva.

This time, Benjani Mwaluwari and Pedro Mendes both stared at Sun Qi closely.

Just now, they ignored Sun Qi, so that Sun Qi was unmarked, suddenly rushed into the penalty area, and easily scored with a header.

Now, they don't dare to be so careless anymore.

Sun Qi's jumping ability and header ability are even better than theirs, and they really cannot be underestimated.

Just with that terrifying jumping ability, he can have an absolute advantage in the header competition.

What's more, Sun Qi's body is still very strong, and casual means can't stop Sun Qi at all.

If Sun Qi is allowed to go into the penalty area to participate in the header, then the pressure on the Portsmouth team will definitely be even greater.

Sun Qi posed a big problem for them.

It's just that Sun Qi leisurely stayed outside the penalty area, and didn't intend to rush into the penalty area to compete for a header.

Even so, Benjani Mwaruwari and Pedro Mendes did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and followed Sun Qi closely all the time, never leaving.

Seeing the behavior of these two people, Sun Qi couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth.

It's not that he doesn't know how to header, it's that he is too lazy to fight for positions with so many people in the penalty area when he takes a corner kick. It's too strenuous.

Of course, he would be more than happy to catch the opponent by surprise once or twice in a sneak attack.

It may be possible to involve the two defenders of the Portsmouth team, and his tactical value is quite good.

Standing near the corner kick area, David Silva looked at the situation in the Portsmouth penalty area, then at Sun Qi outside the penalty area, started to run up, took the corner kick, and gave it to the back of the penalty area.

There, Rio Ferdinand burst forward, swung past Martin Clooney, leaped high and headed home.

However, Rio Ferdinand's header was not suppressed, and it was slightly higher than the crossbar.

In the 15th minute, Sun Qi cooperated with Carrick in the middle, and Sun Qi then slanted to David Silva on the left.

David Silva deftly swerved past Noah Palmalot.

When Sean Davis rushed over to defend, David Silva did not continue to stick the ball, but passed it back to Sun Qi who was responding.

Sun Qi moved the ball forward and immediately broke through John Utaka.

When there was an opening, Sun Qi kicked up and passed the ball into the penalty area.

In the middle of the penalty area, Ivica Olic was strictly defended by Sylvani Distin, and almost the whole person was pulled, and there was no way to turn around and hit the goal calmly.

Seeing that the ball had already flown over, Ivica Olic simply leaned against Sylvani Distin and lightly cushioned it with the instep of his foot. The ball immediately changed direction and bounced near the penalty spot.

From there, Scholes advanced from the back at high speed and volleyed the ball in the air.

The distance was very close, and Scholes' shot was very powerful, with a tricky angle, and flew straight towards the bottom right corner of the goal.

Scholes's heavy bombardment was very sudden and of high quality. Portsmouth goalkeeper David James was very surprised. He kicked his feet hard and flew towards the left side of the goal.

It's just that Scholes' shot was too fast. Just when David James was still in the air and just stretched his hand to this side, the ball flew into the goal first.

Seeing this scene, David James' heart sank, and he twitched the corner of his mouth in despair.

The referee's whistle sounded quickly, and the Manchester United fans at the scene also burst into cheers like a tsunami.

Manchester United, with Scholes' goal, led Portsmouth 2-0.

For this goal, Ivica Olic's pass was very beautiful, and Scholes's shot was impeccable.

A shot from the bottom corner like this is the most difficult thing for a goalkeeper to save.

It is Scholes' usual trick to get in from the back row and score with a strong shot.

Nowadays, although Scholes's position is retreated and he is more involved in the team's offensive organization, the occasional back row is still fatal.

David James' reaction was also quick, but the quality of Scholes' shot this time was really high, so he had no choice but to admit it.

Outside the field, seeing Scholes scoring a goal and expanding the score for Manchester United, Manchester United coach Ferguson was in a good mood. After raising his hand to celebrate, he sat back to his seat and chewed gum leisurely .

On the other hand, Portsmouth's head coach Harry Redknapp opened his mouth slightly, his eyes full of helplessness.

Scored two goals by Manchester United, Portsmouth, even harder.

However, no matter how people outside the field react, the game on the field must continue.

In the 18th minute, Sun Qi and Ronaldo cooperated continuously on the right side. After receiving a through ball from Sun Qi, Ronaldo broke into the Portsmouth team's penalty area.

Continuously stepping on the bicycle, Ronaldo forced Martin Clooney and Ali Muntari to keep retreating in order to find a better fighter.

It's a pity that these two are firmly occupying the inside and outside, and Pedro Mendes is ready to defend at any time, leaving too little room for Ronaldo to break through and shoot.

There was no way, Ronaldo had no choice but to knock the ball back with his heel, and knocked it to Sun Qi behind him.

Sun Qi faced the ball and made a direct pass.

The ball flew straight to the back of Portsmouth's penalty area.

Evra quickly followed and shot at the ball.

Unfortunately, Evra's shot flew out of the baseline against the crossbar.

In the 21st minute, Sun Qi broke through Benjani Mwaluwari in the middle, and then knocked the ball across to Scholes.

Scholes took control, and then passed the ball diagonally to Ronaldo in front of the right.

Cristiano Ronaldo stopped the ball and feinted continuously on the ball, but failed to shake Hermann Heredason away.

Seeing this, Ronaldo did not continue to break through, but passed the ball back to Wes Brown, who was on the edge.

After receiving the ball, Wes Brown took the ball one step forward and made a pass.

The ball crossed a beautiful arc and quickly flew to the middle of the penalty area.

Ivica Olic deftly got rid of Sylvani Distin and dived to the top.
