Chapter 304 Ox Tail

"At the beginning of the second half, they will definitely stabilize their defense first. We must take this opportunity to continue the offensive in the first half and seize the opportunity to give them a fatal blow!"

Mourinho is currently arranging tasks for the second half with the players.

"Regardless of our offensive results, after 10 minutes, when everyone's physical strength has dropped a lot, we can slow down and return to our previous defensive style of play. At this time, Shen Peng and Rashford will take the opportunity to counterattack from both sides!"

At the same time, on the other side, Pochettino is indeed as Mourinho thought, planning to let the players defend for more than ten minutes before talking.

After the offense in the latter part of the first half, the Manchester United players have been kicked out and their morale is high, so if they want to attack Manchester United, it is very likely that Manchester United will score more goals.

For them now, the safest way is to hold firmly for the first ten minutes of the second half, and wait until the physical strength of the Manchester United players declines and their momentum weakens before they attack. That way they will be much more confident.

So, he replaced Sun Xingmin, who had a mediocre performance in the first half, and replaced him with Sissoko. Compared with Sun Xingmin, he is better at defending, so the significance of his move is self-evident.

In the second half, after the players on both sides entered the field, Mourinho also showed a clear expression when he saw Pochettino's substitution, so with a big wave of his hand, all Manchester United players pressed up and started attacking.

However, after adjustments, Tottenham's defense is obviously more organized. Even in the face of Manchester United's full-line pressure, they did not reveal any major flaws.

In two minutes, Shen Peng brought the ball to the bottom line. Seeing that his teammates were not in a good position, he took the ball directly to the penalty area.

Naturally, Walker has been defending him all the time. In this position, he dare not be careless at all. Many people still remember Shen Peng's two goals against Manchester City. They almost used the same method twice to pass the opponent's central defender.

Shen Peng slowly approached Walker with the ball, and Walker stared at the ball. Now he felt that Shen Peng's speed was just a cover, and when Shen Peng got close to him, he would launch a lightning-like dribble.

As he expected, after Shen Peng got close to Walker, he moved the ball to the right with his right foot.

At this moment, Walker judged Shen Peng's moves, and Shen Peng was going to break through to his left.

This move is different from Shen Peng's turn against Manchester City. With that turn, Shen Peng's right foot will definitely step in front of the ball, knock the ball back with his heel, and then turn around with the counter kick of his foot.

But now, with Shen Peng's right foot behind the ball, it is impossible to pull the ball back, so he can only break through to the right.

Without hesitation, Walker stretched out his left foot to block the ball.

But then, he was surprised to find that the ball stopped suddenly while rolling, and then jumped to his right again!

And Shen Peng also followed him!
The oxtail is amazing!
Walker reacted instantly, but it was too late now. He couldn't foul in the penalty area at this time, because Shen Peng hadn't missed a penalty kick yet!
The two moved very quickly. From the audience's point of view, it was as if Walker made way for Shen Peng to let Shen Peng pass.

After flashing past Walker, they faced the opponent's goalkeeper Lori and central defender Alderweireld.

At this time, Tottenham's goal was already very lively. Seeing so many people, Shen Peng suddenly moved his foot and the ball flew towards Ibrahimovic!

Vertonghen has quick eyes and quick feet. He is in front of the goal at this time, grabbing the ball and stretching his feet in front of Ibrahimovic. If he kicks the ball, he can kick the ball directly to the midfield.

Ibrahimovic also judged at this moment. According to his current speed, he could not grab the ball at all, so he felt a little regretful that such a good opportunity was missed.

But in the next moment, his eyes widened.

Because he found that the path of the ball... seems to have rotated a little bit?
Vertonghen stretched out his foot to destroy the ball, but when he was about to touch the ball, he found that the position of the ball was a bit wrong.

Originally, a player of his strength would basically not make any mistakes in predicting the position of the ball. If this happened, it meant that the ball had rotated during its flight.

Didn't Shen Peng pass the ball to Ibrahimovic?If you follow this direction of rotation, Ibrahimovic can't grab it at all!

And this distance is very short, the arc of the ball is not enough to bypass him and pass to the feet of Rashford on the other side!

Vertonghen analyzed the situation in an instant.

Could it be Shen Peng's mistake?
But when the heel of his outstretched foot came into contact with the ball, he reacted immediately!
not good!

But it was too late at this time, because there were already thunderous cheers at the scene.

Vertonghen turned his head with an ugly face and found that the ball was rolling out of the goal at this time.

A goal was scored, and it was his own goal.

The referee has already run over at this time, pointing to the center circle, indicating that the goal is valid, and Manchester United leads [-]-[-].

Lori also came over and patted Vertonghen on the shoulder, "Jan, don't take it to heart, mistakes are inevitable on the football field, this is normal, just pay attention next time."

Hearing the words of encouragement from his teammates, Vertonghen couldn't feel happy.

He felt... the ball just now was deliberately done by Shen Peng, but what a strong hole friction is needed to achieve this level!Therefore, he was more inclined to believe that Shen Peng made a mistake and scored an own goal by coincidence. Otherwise, Shen Peng would be terrible.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Shen Peng who was celebrating with his teammates.

This goal was indeed done by Shen Peng on purpose. At that time, his chances of scoring a goal were very small, and Tottenham's defenders were already in place. It was difficult to score a goal, so he had a whim, trying to see if he could let the opponent score an own goal in a chaotic battle.

However, in this top league, even if players pile up in front of the goal, they rarely make that kind of low-level mistakes, so he decided to pretend to pass the ball, and then let the ball draw an arc inward, so that he has a chance to bounce into the goal.

It turned out to be a success, which also gave Shen Peng an inspiration. Maybe this is also a way to face the intensive defense in the penalty area in the future?
Seeing Shen Peng's goal, many older fans on the sidelines became excited.

"Oh my god, Shen Peng's extraordinary goal just now reminds me of someone!"

"What? You feel the same way, I thought it was my illusion!"

The two people who spoke looked at each other, and they both saw each other's thoughts from the other's eyes.

This person is naturally the Barcelona superstar of the year, Ronaldinho.
