Chapter 117: 1 victory

In the 12th round of the Premier League on November 24, Manchester United challenged Cardiff away. Just 20 minutes after the game, Manchester United scored a 2-0 score, leading smoothly. For this game, it almost locked the victory.
Cardiff City saw the scores fall behind, and their formation gradually squeezed out. Cardiff City's center is Fraser Campbell. He is also a young player from the Manchester United youth training camp. He transferred to Sunderland in 2009, and then Transferred to Cardiff City in January 2013. In the following half season, he scored 7 key goals for Cardiff City, helping the team to successfully advance to the Premier League with the first place in the standings. In this game, he destroyed the city for Cardiff.
Although Cardiff City is tenacious, how can a team that is still playing in the Champions League last season be a strong Manchester United opponent. Smalling on the back line of Manchester United stared at Campbell and he didn't have any chance.
Seeing the state of Smolin in this game, Kintag nodded secretly: Smolin performed well today.
Last season's main central defenders Ferdinand and Vidic played very stable, but this season the two have been injured, and almost never played at the same time. In view of this situation, Jin Taige righted Smolin right, making him the main center. In order to right Smolin, Gintag hesitated to buy the defensive star Van Dijk on the bench. At first, Smolin always played very frizzy, but after six months of training, he has gradually matured. When facing the opponent's forward, Smolin handled the ball much more robustly.
Although Smolin is gradually growing, Jin Taige knows very well that with Smolin's talents and qualifications, it will be difficult to reach the level of world-class center-back in the future. Not to mention Vidic and Ferdinand, wait until Van Dijk kicks the team Last year or two, after working better with the team, it is estimated that Smalling's starting position should be lost. And there are younger and more aggressive Jones in the first team, and the talented Bailey in the youth team. Smolin's future will definitely be difficult.
In fact, he was also very clear. The only thing he could do was to train hard, make up for his lack of talent with diligence, and play every game seriously. Although he is not a player who has come out of Manchester United youth training, he has a deep feeling for Manchester United and is definitely not inferior to the native Manchester.
Jintaige is also very pleased. The team not only needs a strong main force such as De Gea, Kanter, Van Persie, but also those bench players who work hard, such as Smolin, and then Valencia. In a giant like Manchester United who fights three and four times a year, the depth of the bench can often determine the team's final trend at a critical moment.
At the end of the first half, Manchester United scored again. This time it was Smolin who did well in the first half.
Manchester United scored a corner kick in the frontcourt. Nani passed the ball into the penalty area. Smolin nodded the ball in front of the goal. The ball slammed into the net and Manchester United led 3-0.
This is the first goal scored by Smalling this season. Smalling was very excited after the goal. He ran to the sidelines and hugged Kingtag, and Kingtag also happily congratulated him.
The first half is over.
The atmosphere in the locker room today is very relaxed. The team changed the previous losing streak in the league. The last game was Arsenal. This game is winning again. The players talked and smiled in the locker room. The atmosphere was very good.
Kim Tingger praised the team's performance, he let the team continue to attack in the second half.
But in the second half, Jintaige found that Cardiff City changed, they removed a forward, replaced a central defender, and strengthened the defense. Although 3 goals behind, Cardiff City found that they had no hope of winning or equalizing, so their goal in the second half was to conceal fewer goals. After all, they have just reached the Premier League this season. It is normal to lose to the defending champion in this game.
Therefore, Cardiff City pulled down, although the score was behind, but still played a defensive counterattack in front of the home fans.
When Jin Taige saw this situation, instead of being anxious, he became happy. This time his team has a 3-0 lead and three points have been reached without any worries. Cardiff City has now set up a bus in front of the goal. Jintaige just let the team run into a new play and new formation.
Jin Jinge considered for a moment and immediately made tactical adjustments. He replaced Giggs with Carrick, then shifted Carrick's position a little later and moved Rooney back to the forward position. In this way, although the 4-4-2 formation is still on the court, when it is offensive, it has actually become 4-2-3-1. Don't look at a striker and a midfielder, but Manchester United's attack power has not decreased, and their tactics have become more three-dimensional. After Carrick came into play ~ EbookFREE.me ~, it quickly broke out. Carrick was not the kind of player that Giggs could insert in front of the opponent's penalty area. Carrick's biggest advantage is long pass and organization. Speaking of organizational backs, a healthy Carrick can definitely be at the forefront of international football.
In the 65 minutes of the game, Carrick made a long pass in the backcourt and found Mahrez on the left. Mahrez returned from injury. This game appropriately reduced the dribble breakthrough and more passes. forward. This time he received the ball, took a few two steps, and directly passed the ball to Van Persie in the penalty area. Van Persie continued the excellent state of the previous game. After receiving the ball, he flicked the ball horizontally and shot his foot. The ball Shot into the near corner.
Manchester United 4-0 lead!
After changing the line, Rooney also found the feeling of scoring. After his position retreated, although he was far away from the goal, he had more chances to take the ball, or the ball was scored to the side, or the ball was pushed into the penalty area. Or, if he breaks through himself or shoots directly, Rooney has more options, and his freedom is much higher than before.
In fact, in the last game against Arsenal, Rooney had a lot of opportunities at that time, but Rooney's feet felt a little rough at the time, so he missed a few excellent opportunities.
After Rooney retreated in this game, he continued to get opportunities. Now this point has become the core of the offense. All offenses are organized and scheduled from Carrick. The final decision here is to pass and shoot. of.
到 In the 78th minute of the game, Rooney received the ball at the top of the arc in the penalty area. He looked up at the position of his teammates. There were defensive players all around him. There was no great opportunity. Rooney didn't hesitate, he shot straight and shot long distance. Goalkeeper Marshall tried his best to save, but still couldn't save, the ball entered the net.
Manchester United 5-0 lead!
