Chapter 872 Foul Tactics
The duel between Rongguang and Manchester United is indeed the focus of everyone's greatest concern.

It has even surpassed the contest between Manchester City and Manchester United.

In the last game, Ferguson used tactics to compress Rongguang on the wing, trying to reduce the threat of Rongguang. As a result, Rongguang answered Ferguson with two goals and one assist.

Obviously this tactic has failed. It is impossible for Ferguson to continue to use such a tactic in the FA Cup final, so what tactic will he come up with?
The answer was revealed in the FA Cup final.

There was a huge booing in the new Wembley Stadium, which can accommodate 9 people.

The boos were made by Manchester City fans, who accounted for half of the 9 people.

They are booing Manchester United players.

But the Manchester United player who was booed was not the Cristiano Ronaldo that Manchester City fans hate, but the defender Park Ji-sung.

The Korean just brought down Rongguang in the game. At that time, Rongguang was knocked to the ground by Park Ji-sung just after crossing the halfway line. Naturally, he lost the ball and the game was interrupted.

If it was just this foul, the Manchester City fans would not have such a big temper. After all, if there is no foul in a game, it is impossible.

The reason why Manchester City fans are so upset is that after the start of the game, Manchester United fouled frequently as if targeting Rong.

They won't even wait for Rongguang to bring the football to the front of their penalty area before fouling, but in the midfield, near the center line, foul as soon as they can.

Their foul actions are not particularly rough and have a large range.

Sometimes it's just a tug on your jersey when it matters most, or a squeeze.

Although the movements are not very big, they can effectively interrupt Manchester City's offense.

And this foul was not only aimed at Rong Guang alone, but also at Manchester City as a whole.

In the midfield and the frontcourt, Manchester United's players will actively use foul tactics, as long as Manchester City will never let the football easily pass to the frontcourt anyway.

This is what Manchester City fans are dissatisfied with. In their view, Manchester United played in stoppage time at all.

The game started 10 minutes into the game, but it never ran smoothly.

Most of the time, it's on and off.

The game started, then Manchester United fouled, the referee blew the whistle, the game was interrupted, the game was restarted, fouled again, the whistle blew again... Anyway, it went on and on again...

This kind of game is simply uncomfortable to watch.

While the Manchester City fans in the stands expressed their dissatisfaction, they also used this kind of boos to put pressure on the Manchester United players, hoping that they would not keep playing like this.

The televised camera was given to the face of Manchester United coach Ferguson.

He was expressionless, chewing gum in his mouth.

Obviously, when the foul concentration occurs, it must not be the actions of a small number of players, but the tactical requirements of the team.

"...It turns out that this is Ferguson's non-communicable tactic...To be honest, there is really no comment. It is indeed a bit...shameful for Ferguson to say this tactic." Alan Hansen complained.

To Ferguson, the legend of English football, he was also unceremonious when he complained.

"But Alan, you have to admit that this may be the only effective way to deal with Rong." John Mortensen said.

He is a commentator, and he still has to maintain a superficial fairness, impartiality and objectiveness, and cannot be as capricious as a commentator.

Alan Hansen shrugged and said nothing.

He admitted that Mortensen was right, but this did not mean that he approved of Ferguson's approach.

Although it seems that Manchester United players still have a sense of foul.

But this is a Manchester derby and it's also an FA Cup final.It is absolutely impossible for these two teams to get together without the smell of gunpowder. The two sides are natural enemies.

Then Ferguson's foul tactics are actually creating opportunities for friction during the game, allowing the players on both sides to accumulate anger, and who knows what will happen in the end.

Players like Rong Guang should be well protected by the world football world. Just look at his performance, it is really fascinating. If such a player falls due to injury, it will not be a loss for the Premier League, but a loss for the entire world football world!
Alan Hansen worried that Ferguson's foul tactics would make Rongguang suffer another accident.

This is a very dangerous practice.

※※※

Rong Guang has already figured out what Manchester United's tactics are for this game.

He thought of Benitez's advice to himself before the game.

It seems to be true... Manchester United really did not hesitate to use any means to win this game...

Manchester United's foul tactics did make him a little uncomfortable because he couldn't play well.

But that doesn't mean he's out of luck.

The first question to be solved now is how to get closer to some of Manchester United's goals?

Manchester United players are very smart. They all foul away from the goal. This kind of place has the least chance of getting a card and the least threat to the goal.

Since Manchester United's foul tactics cannot be stopped or changed, then I must first force Manchester United to foul closer to their goal.

In this way, at least it can threaten Manchester United's goal with a free kick...

Thinking of this, he found his teammate Harman who was in charge of serving free kicks in the midfield: "Don't kick the ball directly into the penalty area, Dietmar."

Harman originally planned to send the football directly to the opponent's goal, because he found that only in this way can he successfully send the football to the place closest to the Manchester City goal.

"Why, Rong?"

he asks.

"It's hard for us to catch the ball, it's meaningless. You pass the football to me." Rong Guang said.

"But...the opponent's foul..." Haman didn't finish, but he knew that Rong Guang had understood.

Rong Guang shook his head: "Don't worry, it's fine, Dietmar."

Harman didn't know exactly what Rongguang was going to do, but since Rongguang said so... then trust him, he has proved countless times this season that he is worthy of the trust of his teammates.Since he said it's okay, it's okay.

So he nodded: "Okay. You go to the front, I promise to pass the football to you..."

But Rong Guang shook his head again: "No, I'm right next to you. When the time comes, just pass the football to me like this..." He gestured.

Haman glanced at Rong Guang, and finally nodded.He believes in glory, so give him the football and see what he does.

So when the Manchester United players shrunk back and prepared to deploy heavy troops near the penalty area to fight for the header, everyone was surprised to see that Rong Guang was standing not far from Haman, forming a triangle with Haman and the football.

As a striker, he didn't come near the penalty area. With his jumping and heading skills, he should come here to compete for the top...

What is he doing next to Haman?Does he still want to shoot directly here?

Don't be ridiculous, that's the middle circle!

How could he expect that he could still score with a direct shot in the middle circle?

But looking at his position, it really looks like he is about to kick a free kick...

Then should we go up and set up a personal wall or something?

Because the distance is too far, Manchester United players never considered lining up in the midfield at all.

At this moment, the referee's whistle sounded.

Harman started running towards the football.

At the same time, Rong Guang also suddenly started, but instead of running towards the football, he ran diagonally towards another direction!
Harman ran to the football in two steps, but instead of kicking the football towards the penalty area, he directly kicked it to Rong Guang who pulled away from the side.

When Rongguang received the ball, the Manchester United players just woke up like a dream. Manchester City is going to let Rongguang take the ball and launch an attack!

So they stopped guarding the restricted area, and all rushed out in a swarm, and some of them rushed directly to Rongguang.

They were not worried that Rong Guang would pass the football directly into the penalty area behind them. Even if a Manchester City player received the ball, it would definitely be offside...

That's why when the corner kick is cleared, the defender will rush out with the football, just to cause offside.

Rooney was the first to rush to Rongguang, because he was an offensive player and didn't return to the penalty area just now.

He didn't think about defending Rongguang here, but directly bumped into Rongguang - it was a foul!
He wanted to knock Rong Guang away when Rong Guang had just received the ball and was still unsteady on his footing.

But when Rong Guang was about to receive the football, he stopped suddenly and let the football pass in front of him. Immediately afterwards, Rooney bumped into him, but was dodged by Rong Guang!
Next, Glory restarted the acceleration and chased football again!

No.2 Manchester United player Ryan Giggs caught up, and he came directly with a flying shovel!
He almost tackled the ball, if Rong Guang hadn't kicked the football out first...

But although he didn't kick the ball, he played glory.

He staggered Rong Guang!
The referee's whistle was in his mouth, and it was about to blow.

But when Rong Guang was about to fall to the ground, he supported his body with both hands and continued to run forward!Although he stumbled, he did not fall, and he was still chasing the ball!
After the referee saw this scene, the whistle in his mouth was not blown.

So Rong Guang ran forward with all his hands and feet, and finally regained his balance... Park Zhixing came up and bumped him from the side again!
Because he was tripped by Ziggs before, Rong Guang had no energy left to dodge, he was hit hard...

He fell directly to the ground, and naturally lost the football he just caught up to...

Just as he fell to the ground, he heard the referee's whistle sound.

He rolled around on the ground, lying on the turf, the first thing he did was to look up to see where he was.

At a glance, he saw a white line about two or three meters in front of him...

That is the white line of the restricted area.

This is a place a little over 20 meters away from Manchester United's goal, and it has entered the range of his free kick!
So lying on the ground, he clenched his hands: It's done!
