April 24, Old Trafford Stadium.
The score displayed on the large display is still 0 to 0, and the time is exactly 30 minutes.
The Double Red Club has been playing for half an hour, because it is too familiar, so after the opening, the two sides did not have any temptations, and they started directly with real swords, but both sides were very cautious, and they could not shoot anything within half an hour. High-quality offense.
As Sun Wu expected, Klopp did not arrange a high-level forced tactics.
As Klopp considered, Sun Wu did not arrange a high-level tactic, and did not adopt the 343 formation that shined this season, but used the conventional 4231.
Both sides focused on the fight in the midfield and the defense in the backcourt. The attackers of both sides did not show any convincing performance. Instead, the defenders of both sides have performed well.
Coutinho tried several times to strike a cloud arrow, but Fabinho and Kanter were very cautious about this. The two wings of Geze and Depe had little chance to take the ball calmly, even if there was a good one. Crossing opportunities, comeback of Van Dijk and Phil Jones, let Fermino this fake center simply can not grab the spot.
In the other half, although Salah and Mane had excellent personal abilities, it was difficult to enter the penalty area to find a direct shot. Lucas and Coleman on the wings also had high-quality crosses, but Matip and Bailey gave Griezmann no chance.
Sun Wu's forward insertion was strangled by Liverpool's midfielder. Henderson and Nzongqi strangled Sun Wu several times, and even Coutinho often returned defenses, which deeply interfered with Sun Wu's passing and receiving.
Klopp glanced at the Manchester United bench next door. Falcao still didn't make it to the roster, and Harry Kane was still sitting on the bench.
This question always hovered in the mind of Uncle Zha...Why did Griezmann start the guest center, and within half an hour, Griezmann didn't even make a threat and even had a limited number of touches.
At this time, there was a boo in the stands, Klopp turned to look, De Pera crossed from the side, the left-back Robertson suddenly walked inside, and shot suddenly from a distance of 30 meters from the goal.
Fabinho, who was thrown up by the ball, flicked the ball slightly and then changed the line. Degea leaped into the air when he could not let it go. With his left hand, the ball hit the far post and popped out.
"Almost!" Zhan Jun said with pity: "Robertson has played very well this season. He has contributed 3 goals and 6 assists."
"For the first time in the Red Doubles this season, Robertson once scored a long shot of the world wave." Zhang Lu frowned and shook his head. "No one at Manchester United has watched for his long shot."
The live broadcaster gave Robertson a close-up, and suddenly the camera turned.
"Manchester United's counterattack... Mane!"
After the ball's center column popped up, Van Dijk did not make a big foot but turned around to protect the ball and let Kanter wade the ball. The latter did not go to Sun Wu who had been stuck by Henderson this time, but sent a pick pass to Mane on the left.
Sun Wu speeded up laterally to try to catch up, but Mane made a cross pass and suddenly spiked the ball and accelerated to a straight line breakthrough. After turning off Pishcek, he changed the inside line again.
Klopp looked at this scene with his hands behind his back. Mane's breakthrough ability was indeed very, very strong. He broke through Pishcek several times in half an hour, but Liverpool had enough defensive force in the backcourt in this game.
Sure enough, the incisive Mane encountered another Liverpool midfielder Nzongzi. Coutinho, who was back at high speed, pounced the ball from behind, but unfortunately, the pricked ball happened to be inserted by Lu. Cass carried away.
Lucas couldn't get rid of Piscek who returned to defense, and Goetze had already returned to assist defense. The French defender immediately chose a 45-degree cross.
"Lucas crosses... Matip's header is cleared, Griezmann can't make it."
"Wait a minute!"
"Best!"
Mottson shouted: "Best...Oh, direct long shot!"
said, "If the sky is old, if you are old, you will meet Hartmund." But Joe Hart's personal ability is beyond doubt.
When Matip made a header and inadvertently gave the top of the ball to Sun Wu with a high-speed forward, Joe Hart was ready.
Because he knew that Henderson was behind him, he never had the opportunity to adjust. Sun Wu chose to take a direct volley.
But Joe Hart rose into the air, his right finger tip slightly, the ball slightly changed the line and hit the crossbar to pop the bottom line.
A heavy sigh of regret rang from the stands.
Klopp on the sideline leaned back slightly and pouted, one goal post each, and it was all because of the opponent's mistakes. Did the victory depend on luck or will the opponent make mistakes today?
But Klopp didn't dare to carelessly, he was too aware of Sun Wu's ability to adjust on the spot, and the special point that the opponent was on the field itself made him feel more about the situation.
Klopp is thinking about whether to take the initiative or post-control?
Liverpool still has a card in hand, Kagawa Shinji has a stronger vertical ability than Coutinho, and Sturridge can often show impressive performances.
But Klopp considered the next two double reds, if he had a choice, he would rather give up this FA Cup semi-final, he hopes to reach the Champions League final.
The final half ended 0-0. The two sides contributed a total of 7 shots, Manchester United 3 times and Liverpool 4 times. Each of them scored a goal but there was no threat. Each one hit the post or crossbar.
But one of the statistics is surprising. The two sides have a total of four lower backs. Together, they contributed 17 steals and more than 4 per capita. It seems unobtrusive, but you know that this is only a half game.
Zhan Jun's comment during the halftime break: "Generally speaking, it is quite satisfactory, but it is worth noting that today Harry Kane did not start, Griezmann was the center, and the French striker's performance today is surprising."
"In the first half of the 45 minutes, there were only 13 touches, 4 interceptions, 2 pass errors, no threats, no passing, no touch in the penalty area."
Thanks to the development of modern technology, the relevant statistical data is basically synchronized, and Sun Wu in the locker room also got a copy. After a few glances, he stuffed it back to Rolf. This situation is due to psychological preparation before the game. of.
Griezmann came to the Premier League Manchester United from La Liga and played a phenomenal performance in the first season~EbookFREE.me~ He often came out as a center in that season, but he was not a typical center, and his playing style was a bit similar to that of the time. Messi, and now Firmino.
Therefore, Sun Wu believes that Salah and Mane can be combined with Firmino as the Fantastic Three, then they can also perfectly cooperate with Griezmann.
However, tacit understanding is a big problem. Griezmann has always played the second striker in the past two years. Mane is actually his substitute. Salah has only come for a few months.
How to run at a critical moment and how to choose a position when a teammate breaks through, this all needs a long run.
Therefore, Sun Wu chose to play a trick.
In the entire Manchester United team, of course Sun Wu himself is the one who can form the best understanding with Griezmann.
Throughout the first half, Griezmann didn't cross the side to get the ball inward, didn't withdraw the ball afterwards, and Labian only took on the most common over-passing task.
In a word, Griezmann in the first half is a typical center, and it is a typical center that looks very poor.
Sun Wu patted the tactical board and looked at Griezmann, "Anthony, there is a saying in China that is...close to Zhu Zhichi."
Griezmann blinked unclearly.
Er, in fact, Sun Wu's statement is not very accurate, it should be black near Mexico, Griezmann's performance in the first half was quite successful.
"I mean, continue in the second half." Sun Wu said with a smile: "I will give you a signal, as long as a goal is enough."
