Chapter 926 Fight back against Yang Yang!

On the evening of April 27, at the Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid.

Real Madrid host Manchester United in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final.

At the beginning of the game, the two teams played a fast pace directly.

Real Madrid formed a [-] formation tonight, with goalkeeper Casillas, Marcelo, Vermaelen, Ramos and Maicon at the back, Xavi Alonso and Mascherano as double midfielders, Yang Yang, Kaka and Arjen Robben at the front, Zlatan Ibrahimovic at center, this is Real Madrid's main attacking lineup this season.

Manchester United is also the main force here, the goalkeeper is Van der Sar, the defense is Evra, Vidic, Ferdinand and Fabio, the midfielders are Park Ji-sung, Giggs, Carrick and Valencia from left to right, and the double striker is a combination of Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney.

The two coaches and the players on both sides are no strangers to each other, and Benitez also made no secret of his intention, that is, to win Manchester United at home, so he arranged a stronger offensive lineup to deal with the Red Devils.

The same is true for Ferguson. The Red Devils directly launched an away attack at the beginning of the game and took the lead in the offensive. Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo launched an active press in the frontcourt. In the 3rd minute, after the Portuguese intercepted Mascherano, Carrick passed the ball.

After the Belgian was sent off with a red card in the first Derby of the Century, he started again in this game and was suffocated.

But Manchester United, who had tasted the sweetness, seemed like a shark smelling blood. Ferguson signaled the team to continue to strengthen the pressing.

When Real Madrid returned a pass to the goalkeeper, Ronaldinho quickly approached, forcing Casillas to choose to make a clearance on the side, and almost gave Manchester United a throw-in.

The continuous pressing and aggressive running oppression allowed Manchester United to take advantage of the scene after the opening. Although it could not be directly converted into a threat, judging from the first few minutes of the game, Manchester United must have come prepared.

The first time Manchester United entered Real Madrid's penalty area was in the 8th minute. A long pass from goalkeeper Van der Sar was sent directly to the frontcourt. Vermaelen headed back to the midfield, but Giggs sent it back behind him.

Cristiano Ronaldo sprinted straight behind him, chasing the ball in the penalty area, but Casillas decisively abandoned the goal and threw the ball in his arms first.

Under the constant pressure of Manchester United, Real Madrid itself also made mistakes.

In the 10th minute, Manchester United made a direct pass and tried to pass into the penalty area, but was intercepted by Ramos first. However, under Rooney's pressure, Ramos returned the pass to the goalkeeper, but was ambushed by Ronaldinho. Fortunately, Vermaelen was not slow.

Cristiano Ronaldo was in a hurry and pushed Vermaelen from behind. The Belgian central defender fell to the ground. The referee whistled for a foul and called the Portuguese over to give a stern warning.

……

"In tonight's game, Ronaldinho still looks eager to prove himself."

"After the opening, the fighting spirit was very strong, and the defense and goalkeeper pressure against Real Madrid were very active."

"Early before the game, he said in an interview with the British media that he hopes to score goals at the Bernabéu. He hopes to use his own goals to help Manchester United win the away game, so as to prove that he is not inferior to Yang Yang."

"From the opening point of view, Xiao Luo's fighting spirit is indeed very strong, but he should also restrain his temper properly."

"Vermaelen performed very well after the start tonight. The defense is very stable and experienced. The cooperation with Ramos is also very tacit. The defense against Rooney and Ronaldinho has been relatively successful so far."

"Real Madrid's stable defense blocked Manchester United's offensive, but the Red Devils must be careful next."

"This is the Bernabéu stadium, Real Madrid will definitely let Manchester United seize the advantage like this, and then can Manchester United stop Real Madrid's attack?"

……

Soon, Real Madrid gave the answer.

Just 10 minutes later, Real Madrid immediately launched an offensive.

Midfielder Harvey Alonso made a direct pass, which was accurately delivered to the frontcourt. Ibrahimovic retreated, received the ball with his back against Vidic, squeezed away the Manchester United central defender with his body, turned around and made a direct pass, and sent the ball to the left side of the penalty area.

Yang Yang jumped in at high speed, and under the pincer attack of Fabio and Ferdinand, he chased the ball first and volleyed directly, but Ferdinand blocked Yang Yang's shot and turned it into a corner kick.

Then Real Madrid took a corner kick, but failed to create a threat.

Corner kick attack, this is not Real Madrid's strong point.

Two minutes later, Real Madrid once again organized an offensive.

Ibrahimovic pulled to the left and passed the ball back to Marcelo. The Brazilian left back crossed to the center.

This long-range shot was shot quickly and urgently, and Yang Yang's position was at the front of Manchester United's weakest penalty area.

Everyone is very clear that this is Benitez's targeted tactics.

With only Carrick as a defensive midfielder, Manchester United's protection at the front of the penalty area will be a major weakness.

This is a long-standing problem for Manchester United.

Whether it's Ibrahimovic's retracement, Yang Yang's inward cut and running position, or Kaka's back penetration, they are all making a fuss about this area of ​​Manchester United.

No. In the 16th minute, Real Madrid sent the ball to the penalty area and delivered it to Zlatan Ibrahimovic during an attack.

The Swedish centre-forward attempted to force his way past United's defense but was unsuccessful and was forced to pass back to Kaka who was plugging in behind him.

Kaka stopped the ball and got it to the left flank. Yang Yang threw away Fabio who was defending him, and quickly ran over to catch the ball.

Ferdinand was taken aback, and quickly rushed out of the penalty area, trying to block Yang Yang, but Yang Yang stopped Kaka's pass to the middle without waiting for him to approach, accelerated, and the whole person threw Ferdinand away like an arrow, swung his right foot on the left side of the top of the arc, and drew a low flat ball against the ball.

The football quickly shot out from Yang Yang's right foot, flew past Ferdinand's side, broke through Manchester United's defense line at an extremely fast speed, and flew accurately to the lower left corner of the goal.

Van der Sar stood in the center just now, facing Yang Yang's sudden long-range shot, the Dutch goalkeeper quickly swooped sideways, stretching his hands as much as possible, trying to throw Yang Yang's shot sideways, but Yang Yang's shot came quickly and hurriedly, and there was another obvious rebound near the small penalty area, causing Van der Sar to throw sideways into nothing.

The ball crashed into the goal behind him.

……

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"Yang Yang! It's Yang Yang again!!"

"It's still him!"

"This is his goal in the last three consecutive games. In the previous two games, Yang Yang opened the door to victory for Real Madrid, kept the hope of the league, and won the Copa del Rey. Tonight, it was Yang Yang's goal again. Real Madrid led Manchester United [-]-[-] in the semi-finals of the Champions League!"

"Unbelievable! It's unbelievable!"

……

Yang Yang quickly rushed out of the stadium, rushed directly to the bottom of the south stand of the Bernabeu, knelt down, opened his arms towards the fans in the stands, and accepted the sound waves from the stands like a vast ocean.

One to zero!

…………

…………

After seeing Yang Yang's goal, Cristiano Ronaldo cursed angrily, turned and walked towards the center line.

He couldn't understand why the team's defense was so easily torn apart by the opponent?

Shouldn't Yang Yang be the focus of Manchester United's defensive players?
How can you give such a chance?
The area on the left side inside and outside the penalty area is a place nicknamed "Yang Yang's area" by fans and the media. Let him kick there, isn't it equivalent to giving Yang Yang a goal?
Not only the Portuguese are depressed, but everyone in Manchester United is very depressed.

But depression is depression, but the game will continue.

Before Manchester United came to the Bernabeu, they had already made sufficient plans. Ferguson even expected that he would fall behind in the game, and Real Madrid scored the first goal, and he might even fall behind by two goals.

Therefore, the Manchester United players quickly adjusted their emotions and rejoined the game.

The Red Devils Manchester United will not be easily defeated by a goal.

Ferguson, who was originally sitting in the coaching bench of the visiting team and was chewing gum, finally came out and directed the team from the sidelines. Basically, he was signaling the team to pay more attention to defense and quickly pass through the midfield when counterattacking.

Unlike Manchester United's weak midfielder position, Real Madrid's double midfielder is the best in European football.

Mascherano and Harvey Alonso have been famous for many years. This pair of double midfielders was already the top European midfielder when they were Liverpool. After coming to Real Madrid, they have become more stable. Last summer, Real Madrid defeated Manchester United and many other teams and signed Javier Martinez from Athletic Bilbao with a termination fee. The Spanish midfielder also proved his strength and showed the potential of a top midfielder.

It can be said that Real Madrid's current midfielder talent pool can be called the number one in the world.

But Real Madrid's problems are not without.

The two full-backs are keen to attack. Maicon and Marcelo often press up, which inevitably leaves holes behind them. This is the weakness of Real Madrid, and it is also an inevitable problem for the full-backs to advance forward and assist.

……

After the goal, Real Madrid was not satisfied with leading by one goal, but continued to increase their offensive.

Maicon cut in from the right and rushed directly to the outside of Manchester United's penalty area. Facing Evra's defense, he passed the ball with his right foot and crossed to the penalty area to find Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Then Real Madrid continued to control the situation, continued to maintain offensive pressure, and frequently created scoring opportunities.

But at No. 301 minutes, Ferdinand suddenly went up and cut off Kaka's pass to Marcelo, then launched a counterattack on the spot and passed it to Giggs in front.

The Manchester United veteran passed it to Rooney, who knocked back, forming a two-for-one, and Giggs took advantage of the opportunity to go straight behind Vermaelen.

The Belgian central defender was fast enough and responsive enough, but at the moment of turning around, he was a bit slower than Cristiano Ronaldo, and was rushed into the penalty area by the Portuguese. After catching up with Giggs' assist, he pushed and scored.

One to one!

The Portuguese was so excited that he rushed out of the pitch, gliding along the perimeter of the Bernabeu and cheering.

This is his counterattack to Yang Yang!
