Chapter 76 Manchester United’s counterattack!
On the field, B Fee stood at the corner flag, while Maguire, Lindelof and Pogba all walked into the penalty area.
Goldson was responsible for marking Maguire, and Holland was responsible for Lindelof. This was the marking tactic decided before the game.
Chen Xiaoliang is responsible for blocking the front point and clearing the secondary landing point.
B Fee raises his hand and takes a run-up!
Manchester United's offensive players slowly pressed forward from outside the penalty spot!
The corner kick was flat and fast!
Chen Xiaoliang immediately determined the path of the ball, which was flying towards the back point!
Cavani jumped at the back point, and Aribo next to him quickly jumped up to block!
Both of them missed the target! The ball was not actually aimed at Cavani!
Maguire jumped high in his sprint! Goldson also jumped up in front of him!
However, this central defender, who is 191 cm tall and weighs 85 kg, and has made great contributions to Rangers' air defense throughout the season, was completely suppressed by the Manchester United captain who is 194 cm tall and weighs 99 kg behind him!
The mountain is falling!
Maguire's forehead hit the ball hard!
Chen Xiaoliang, who had already moved to the back point, had never expected that Goldson would be defeated so easily in a direct contest with Maguire!
Zhan Jun: “Danger!”
"McGregor!"
McGregor subconsciously reached out, but the ball was too fast! Too close! It flew under the crossbar and into the goal!
“The ball goes in!”
1 to 1!
"Poor Maguire makes amends!"
Manchester United fans, who had been frustrated for half the game, stood up and cheered!
He also extended that finger to the Rangers fans on both sides, making a warm and friendly greeting gesture!
"Coach Xie, you were also good at heading during your playing career. What do you think of this goal?"
Xie Hui: "This is a pure crushing of personal ability, jumping, physical confrontation, heading ability, the ability to keep balance in the air, an all-round victory."
Zhang Lu: "Although his defensive mistake in the first half was incredible, in offense and defense , facing him one-on-one, his ability is still very strong, otherwise he would not be worth this price."
Zhan Jun: "The king of heaven covers the tiger of earth, but I am the aircraft carrier of Ma! Mourinho proposed to Manchester United's top management to buy him! But he was rejected! After Solskjaer took office, the club finally spent 80 million pounds to buy him at the price of the world's best defender!"
On the field, Maguire was very excited after scoring the goal, and ran to the corner where the Manchester United fans were to celebrate! He vented his unhappiness!
Although the score was only tied, this away goal actually helped Manchester United gain the advantage!
You know, this is the last year that UEFA will implement the away goal system, and it will be completely cancelled in European competitions next season!
In the Rangers penalty area, Goldson lowered his head, put his hands on his waist, and gasped with his chest heaving.
There was dissatisfaction in his eyes, but more of it was helplessness!
On the German transfer market website, his value is 5 million euros.
He also raised questions, why is he only worth 5 million as he is also English, while those Premier League defenders are worth tens of millions!
He is also a champion and a key player of a well-known veteran team in Europe!
Why?!
The Manchester United captain, who had made a joke in the first half, responded to his doubts with a solid header!
On the sidelines, the fourth official raised the electronic substitution card.
No. 18 Glen Kamara comes on, replacing No. 10 Davis!
No. 16 Nathan Patterson came on to replace No. 2 captain Tavernier who had just recovered from injury!
Before leaving the field, Tavernier once again handed the captain's armband to Chen Xiaoliang!
The two players who came on the field quickly conveyed the coach's instructions to other teammates.
Gerrard is clearly telling the players that changes must be made!
The game continues!
Morelos kicked the ball from the center line.
McTominay, who was next to Aribo when he received the ball, was already close to him. Aribo wanted to use his physical advantage to pass the opponent, but he almost lost the ball after trying several times!
He had no choice but to pass the ball back to Chen Xiaoliang behind him.
B Fee pounced on him!
McTominay shook off Aribo and rushed over!
Also coming over is Cavani in the penalty area!
Manchester United also started to press high! Obviously they didn't want to give Rangers a chance to breathe and adjust!
Facing the attack from three people, Chen Xiaoliang did not dare to be careless and quickly passed the ball back to Goldson !
Rashford presses forward!
Cavani, who had just run halfway, immediately turned back!
Goldson took a few steps back with the ball, and when he saw that the wing and forward routes were blocked, he passed the ball back to his own goal in a panic!
But he seemed to have forgotten how close he was to the goal!
McGregor, who was less than three meters away from him, never expected Goldson to pass the ball to him out of the blue. Faced with the pressure, the Scottish goalkeeper had no space to swing his legs and kick the ball forward. He could only clear the ball to the right and kicked it directly out of the sideline!
[Stupefied? Too amateur, the level of the Red Super League defenders]
[You haven't gotten over the loss just now, have you?]
[The foot was too rough, almost an own goal]
[That's it? If you don't change, just wait for the loss]
There was a lot of ridicule in the comments, and the Rangers fans at the scene also booed!
"Snapped!"
A crisp sound!
The players and referees nearby were attracted by the sound and turned their heads.
Chen Xiaoliang suddenly patted Goldson on the shoulder!
This time the force is very great!
Goldson felt pain and turned back with anger on his face!
"What the hell are you doing?!"
He wanted to get even more angry, but he saw Chen Xiaoliang frowning and staring at him with murderous eyes!
"I thought you were no longer angry.
We played for a whole season, not just to give up tonight!
The guy on the other side washed away the shame of the first half with a goal, and you? What are you doing?
Reach out and feel if your thing is still there! If it is, go and win it back like a man! "
Although these words were spoken in a firm and decisive manner, only the two of them who were standing right next to each other could hear them.
Chen Xiaoliang's purpose was to stimulate him, not to humiliate him in public.
Holland and Barisic quickly came up to "mediate the fight".
Goldson seemed to be full of anger but had no place to vent it, so he lowered his head and cursed "Fuck!" a few times.
He couldn't understand why this kid from the Red Country was so good at talking!
But after I finished telling it, I still felt itchy inside! I really wanted to hit someone!
"Should we use Ivoit? If Chen Xiaoliang is blocked again, there will be no outlet for the ball in the backcourt."
McAllister asked anxiously, they still had one last substitution spot.
Gerrard knew that McAllister's concerns were justified. After Davis left the field, there was one less point to pass the ball in the midfield, and Kamara was not the kind of midfielder who could control the ball and make arrangements.
At this moment, Manchester United began to double-team Chen Xiaoliang in an attempt to block the defensive midfielder position.
If that happens, if Rangers want to connect the front and back courts, they can only use the defenders to kick the ball to the forwards.
The success rate of this kind of lob can be imagined, which is almost equivalent to giving away the ball.
Not only that, Rashford and Greenwood on the wing are moving closer to the center.
This is clearly an attempt to block the middle road!
"Wait a little longer, give him some time."
Looking at Gerrard's answer, McAllister understood that Gerrard chose to believe Chen Xiaoliang!
