Revenge Huaguo football, assisting Ronaldo in the World Cup

The first half came to an end with Manchester United's onslaught and Newcastle United's occasional sharp counterattack.

In stoppage time, Yuqin and Trippier successfully connected again and almost broke Manchester United's goal again.

At that time, Manchester United wanted to seize the last chance to attack. The originally conservative Manchester United defense line pressed heavily at the end of the game, hoping to equalize the score.

Unexpectedly, this became an opportunity for Newcastle United to defend against counterattacks.

After receiving a long pass from Trippier, Yuqin seized the opportunity to make a breakthrough in the middle, and drove straight to the Manchester United goal with the ball.

At the moment of the final shot, under Martinez's blocking, goalkeeper De Gea bravely resolved Yuqin's attack, which made Manchester United fans collectively heave a sigh of relief.

Every time Newcastle United had a beautiful counterattack opportunity, the Magpies fans would applaud and cheer enthusiastically.

The same is true of Yuqin's attack this time. After applauding the fans, Yuqin walked towards the locker room.

The first half ended 1:0, and Newcastle United still had the initiative in the game.

Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe was rock-solid on the sidelines after his side took the lead.

Seeing Yuqin's last counterattack, he stood up from the coach's bench and forgot to chew the chewing gum he was constantly chewing.

Although he is still expressionless with his hands folded on his chest, his desire to expand the score is still fully exposed.

……

Newcastle United dressing room.

"I have to criticize you for underestimating the enemy after you won and after you went, and I also want to praise Yuqin for his steady performance on the field..."

Eddie Howe looked at the bewildered players and could only change his words:

"Okay, I'll admit it was a few people who got snubbed after taking the lead, not all of you."

Of course Saint-Maximin knew who the head coach was talking about. Although his black face didn't change in color, he was sweating profusely.

Apparently he was the model Eddie Howe's hand.

"There is a mood of underestimating the enemy, which is very bad!"

"You have all seen Manchester United's offense and experienced it for yourself. I don't think I need to say anything more?"

"If you keep that mentality in the second half, then sooner or later we will lose the ball."

……

Manchester United dressing room.

"First of all I have to admit that in the first half when you conceded a goal first, you have performed very well."

"In the beginning, it was mainly because I had a problem here."

"Our opening tactics obviously didn't have the desired effect, which made the game fall into the rhythm of Eddie Howe."

"But the second half was different!"

"I have seen through Eddie Howe's mind. He intends to rely on defensive counterattacks at their home court to hold on to the 1:0 score to the end, and then continue to expand the score."

"Just because of his mentality, we have to teach him a lesson."

"Eddie Hao is actually not a conservative coach, but in this game, he is a hooligan who can put aside his personal face and reputation in order to win."

"However, I understand his mood at the moment very well. After all, if this game allows them to pass easily, then Newcastle United may really succeed in reaching the top of the Premier League this season."

Having said that, Ten Hag closed his eyes.

After reopening his eyes, his sharp eyes scanned everyone in Manchester United.

"So no matter how ugly the game is, as long as the result is favorable to Newcastle United, Eddie Howe will continue to implement counter-defense tactics."

"So as time goes on in the second half, if we haven't recovered the score, we must be mentally prepared to break the iron barrel."

"I ask you to strengthen the long shot..."

Ten Hag set his sights on Ronaldo. There is no doubt about Ronaldo's long-range shooting ability. He is the absolute core of Manchester United's offense.

"At the same time, the forwards run more aggressively and tear their defense apart."

This sentence was spoken to Rashford and Anthony. It is obviously easier to pull Newcastle United's personnel away from the wing.

"The last thing I want to say is the most important point: we must be patient, more patient than Newcastle United."

"Because Newcastle United, with one goal in hand, is going to wait to see us get impatient and make some mistakes, and then let them seize the opportunity, that is absolutely unforgivable."

"In terms of defense, the four defenders are still not allowed to step forward and assist easily. In this game, if we want to save the defeat, we must first not lose the ball."

"Remember, you must not lose the ball again."

……

Manchester United coach Ten Hag's tactical prediction of Eddie Howe was actually very successful, because it was just after criticizing and praising his players.

Eddie Howe was also arranging the tactics for the players in the second half of the game at this time.

"In the second half, we insisted on keeping our defensive counterattack unchanged, continued to strengthen our defense, and left it to Yuqin and the others to find opportunities to expand the score."

"If necessary, even Yuqin will come back to complete some defensive tasks..."

"In the second half of the game, I will not take the lead in making personnel adjustments."

"Although I will not continue to increase the size on the front line, nor will I take the lead in increasing the size on the defense line, but I want you to increase your own attention when defending."

"This is very important. 45 minutes is a long time. I ask the defenders not to be distracted and concentrate during this time."

"It's going to be a tough 45 minutes and I want you guys to be mentally prepared."

Speaking of this, Eddie Howe said exactly the same words as Ten Hag.

"The game has just begun!"

……

There is still a little time for the intermission. Eddie Howe finished talking about the issues that should be paid attention to in the second half early, and the rest of the time is the free time for the players.

Almiron sat next to Yuqin and changed into a clean jersey, while chatting with Yuqin.

"How is it, playing against your Portuguese teammates, how does it feel?"

Yuqin turned to look at Almiron, and smiled:

"It's actually the same as any game."

"Attacking together is no different from being an opponent. Ronaldo is still the same Ronaldo, and B fee is also the same B fee. There is no difference."

Almiron rolled his eyes: "You are so boring!"

"Then how do you think I should answer?"

Almiron: "You should say: 'Ah, this game feels very good. It has always been my wish to beat Ronaldo twice. I will try my best to beat them!' Only in this way can you have the demeanor of a world-class star."

Almiron said in his own tone when interviewed by reporters.

Yuqin shrugged: "You're not me, how do you know you don't want to say this?"

"No matter what I want to say, you can rest assured that I will try to beat them."

Almiron looked at the players and giggled.

"C Ronaldo is really a formidable opponent."

"I know."

"So actually what I want to say is..."

"You must not lose to him in this match..."
