Listening to the cheers of the mountain and the tsunami at the scene, Sun Wu lying on the ground had to sigh with emotion. This is really not like a Spanish team!
If it is in Camp Nou, the home team fans will remain silent even if they do not send a boo. The entire La Liga, only at the Calderon stadium, fouls will be respected and encouraged by the fans!
After the Barcelona and Spain national teams ruled football with tiki-taka tactics, most La Liga teams are imitating, which is also in line with the technical characteristics and habits of Spanish players.
However, Simoni had to reverse, he became the most experienced coach after Mourinho to study the tiki-taka tactics. The emphasis on defensiveness and the high demand for high-strength rushing made Manchester United players immediately in trouble.
Although Ashley Young opened the court width, it was difficult to touch the ball almost every time, and almost every pass was a return pass.
Klose was closely watched by Miranda for consecutive consecutive goals. Griezmann also disappeared in the crowd. Pogba kept dropping goals. Sun Wu was alone in the frontcourt.
Turning his head and glancing at the anxious Pochettino, Sun Wu roared a few times and made a tactical gesture to his teammates, directing the team's formation to retreat slightly...Originally, Pochettino wanted to open the high position and force to grab the away goal as soon as possible .
Directly send Pogba's return to Lindegard, Sun Wu a flashing body hanging over and rushing over Tiago, this once was Mourinho's love general, although older, But in the midfield, he is a great player.
"This is the Champions League, not the Premier League!" Sun Wu complained to the referee with dissatisfaction.
It has been playing for almost ten minutes. Atletico Madrid’s fierce midfielder has only been awarded two fouls. The referee’s enforcement of this game is clearly loose, which is not good news for Manchester United.
Sun Wu didn't expect that he could influence the referee with just a few words. After he finished speaking, he ran back to catch the ball, and then tried to use the running pass to catch the ball upside down... Then, Sun Wu quickly gave up.
In the 12th minute, Gabi almost used his hands and feet to put Pogba down. Turan received the ball on the left rib and seemed to wait for the left defender Felipe to catch up, but suddenly shot inwards from the goal 28 meters away.
Pogba is still complaining to the referee about Gabi's foul!
"boom!"
Turan's long shot perfectly bypassed Lindegard, but the ball was hitting the crossbar and the bottom line was ejected.
Sun Wuyin ran to Pogba with his face, "Paul, handle the ball faster, don't get entangled."
"He fouled!"
"But the referee didn't blow!" Sun Wu couldn't help but stretched his finger towards the head referee. "The referee didn't blow, it was not a foul..."
The head referee's face not far away showed a satisfied look, but what he heard next was...
"...Even if he was punished after the game, but the game has passed!"
The head referee moved a few corners with a corner of his mouth.
Gabi, the Atletico captain on the other side, couldn't help but take a closer look at Sun Wu. It's really a shadow of a man's famous tree!
Next, this game, which many people considered to be close to each other, became very boring. Manchester United fell in the backcourt. As long as Atletico forced to come up, they immediately opened the big foot forward, allowing Griezmann and Klose to grab.
If they can grab it, Sun Wu and Pogba will respond, and Evra and Coleman on both sides will never cross the center line.
If the ball rights change hands, Manchester United immediately set up a battle and set up a defensive line to cope with the next attack of Atletico Madrid.
Although Atletico's defense is fierce, but the offense is still mainly based on the ground, especially the offensive method often likes to quickly transfer the ball in the counterattack to create the advantage of the number of people in the situation. Manchester United, who has retired deeply, is completely uncomfortable.
Atletico’s offensive methods are mainly in the side and the ribs. Toure and Cork are in the ribs. The side is reserved for the rear guards Juan Fran and Felipe, but now they are Manchester United. Obviously wanting to play a defensive counterattack, where do the two fullbacks dare to step forward casually.
Well, the prophecy is evenly correct.
Looking at the ball flying around in the air, Zhan Jun said with a bitter smile: "Fans and friends who stayed up to watch the ball today may be disappointed. This game is a bit dull. Atletico has a shot from the center column, and Manchester United Now... for half an hour, I haven't shot yet."
"This was unimaginable in the past." Zhang Lu chuckled and said: "Today Sun Wu retreated very deep. After the transfer to Manchester United, Sun Wu rarely retreated so deep."
Simone on the sidelines looked at the situation on the court with his arms crossed. In fact, he continued to like this. He was willing to see that Manchester United's defense was at least one grade lower than the offensive, and the main goalkeeper was not on the court.
But Simone decided to wait, on the one hand this was a two-round match, on the other hand he really feared Sun Wu's pass in the counterattack.
After 3 minutes, Simone was thankful for his decision.
In the 35th minute, Klose, who tried his best, finally won the header for the first time in the game. He pressed Midal and gave the ball to Griezmann.
Griezmann didn't take the ball forward for the first time, but deftly circumvented Gabi, and then sent a cross...The front inserted Sun Wu grabbed the ball before Tiago, gently Pick, and then jump over from Tiago who shoveled!
On the stands of Calderon Stadium, boos began to sound gradually.
Facing Gabi from the assist defense, Sun Wu only made a slight cross-shoulder motion on the shoulder to make the opponent's foot stagnate. On that side, Griezmann was running.
But Sun Wu didn't pass the ball, and the instep took the ball forward and wiped Gabi!
The running positions of teammates and opponents appeared very clearly in Sun Wu's mind. Ashley Yang was running on the right side, Klose was also running out of the right side, and Griezmann suddenly accelerated into the penalty area. On the left.
"Sun Wu... passed!"
"Sun Wu Sun Wu...you can shoot!"
As Zhan Jun expected, Sun Wu waved his right foot 28 meters from the goal!
Uruguay defender Godin had to push it out, but Sun Wu immediately put down his right foot.
"Shot...heel!"
"Pogba is unmanned!"
Sun Wu's right foot was slightly inclined when he lowered his foot, and his heel hit the ball. He sent a clever cross.
Gabi and Tiago are still ashing behind Sun Wu's buttocks, Miranda has been taken away by Griezmann, although Felipe is included, but was restrained by Klose, Pogba stopped calmly outside the penalty area The ball, and then aim at the far corner to rub shot!
"Shoot... Kurtua... Griezmann!"
"Oh oh... Manchester United almost came back to the main city first, Griezmann's supplementary shot was blocked by Juan Fran!"
Sun Wu stopped and looked sadly at the ball that rolled off the bottom line~EbookFREE.me~ In fact, Pogba can rub the ball into the penalty area. Sun Wu and Klose, who have already inserted the penalty area, will meet at the back point, very likely Get a shot from close range.
However, shots about 25 meters from the goal can not be said that Pogba's choice was wrong.
In the next corner kick, Ashley Young's corner kick was of average quality. Godin easily headered the header and Diego Costa headed for the ferry. Cork was preparing to break the ball but Sun Wu stretched back Drag down.
In the face of the yellow card presented by the head referee, Sun Wu did not protest... This is the tactical detail explained by Pochettino before the game. Try not to let Schneiderlin get the yellow card. He is a very important part of the Manchester United defense system. Taking a yellow card is likely to become the focus of the opponent's attack.
In the end, the boring first half ended 0-0.
"0 to 0, although both sides have a good chance to close the goal, but neither side has shown too strong offensive." Zhan Jun commented: "The game is evenly matched. If this result is maintained to the end, Atletico Madrid is acceptable. Yes, but if they fail to score an away goal, Manchester United will be in the disadvantage in the second round."
"Next, let's see how the head coaches of both sides adjust."
