221 The edge of collapse

In the past three years, Premier League teams have basically been sideways in the Champions League. Although only one Champions League champion was born, three Premier League teams have reached the Champions League semi-finals for three consecutive years!

If we count from 2005, Premier League teams have been on the finals for five consecutive years.

big4 took the runner-up in turn, Liverpool and Manchester United won the championship, and both won the runner-up, Liverpool champion in 2005, Arsenal runner-up in 2006, Liverpool runner-up in 2007, Chelsea runner-up in 2008, and Manchester United runner-up in 2009.

At this time, the strength of the Premier League is more important to the outside world, including two points, strong confrontation and abundant physical fitness. Based on these two points, when the rhythm is accelerated to the point of destruction, even European giants cannot withstand it!

Situ Yunbing made some mistakes in judgment. He believed that Monaco had played against Chelsea in the group stage and had a rough feeling of the rhythm of the Premier League. Although the opponent was trying to take the post-production plan twice, he still played some expected values ​​in his heart. However, he didn't expect Manchester United to raise the rhythm to a point that really made Monaco at a loss!

Monaco's offensive and defensive conversion process is difficult to operate due to rhythm problems. If the offensive and defensive conversion is not done well, it is impossible to have a threat to counterattack, and even counterattack cannot be achieved!

Manchester United repeatedly attacked Monaco goal in the rhythm they were good at.

In the 14th minute of the game, Monaco finally made a decent counterattack. It was Moro who sent a long pass in the backcourt to find Suarez in the frontcourt. The latter pulled back and received the response and pulled the ball and changed direction to dodge Carrick's pressing and quickly advanced forward. Vidic planned to intercept the head-on during the retracement.

The pair Ferdinand and Vidic became the best central defender combination in Manchester United's championship season in 2008.

Faced with such a back line, even Suarez was a bit tricky in the frontal impact, but he was still actively seeking cooperation with his teammates.

Garez Bale quickly cut in and tried to counter offside. Just when Garez Bale was about to rush past Ferdinand, Suarez was also ready to pass the ball, and Vidic took advantage of this opportunity to grab it immediately!

Suarez didn't expect the opponent to change his pace of retreat and turned to grab the ball. The rhythm under his feet was instinctively changing from passing to spiking. Although he dodged Vidic's pressing, the time for passing was gone, and Gareth Bale was offside!

Ferdinand followed closely with Vidic to complete a pinch attack on Suarez!

Seeing that the situation was not good, Suarez made a move. When he made a move to pass the ball to the side, he pushed the ball forward with his right foot, and then made a strong breakthrough between Ferdinand and Vidic. Garez Bale was running back and didn't turn around to respond. In fact, he was closest to football, but he knew that he was offside and it didn't make much sense to chase him. It would be better to see if Suarez could make a bloody road to create a threat.

As a result, the football passed, but the route Suarez rushed forward was blocked by Ferdinand.

The two collided, and Suarez sat on the ground and opened his hands to complain to the referee about blocking the foul, but the referee did not express anything, probably thinking that Suarez had lost control of the ball.

Manchester United successfully curbed Monaco's quick counterattack.

Three minutes later, Manchester United repeatedly attacked on the left. Although the threat of Evra and Nani is definitely not as great as Evra in the past few years. Ronaldo can create, Manchester United's advantage in rhythm shock can also make Nani and Evra suppress the advantage on the left!

Nani cut inward and shot, Evrettacked the cross from the bottom, or led the attack depth advantage and then entered the penalty area. Monaco continued to strengthen the defense on the right side during this period.

In the 20th minute of the game, Evra received Nani's return from the left. This time he did not continue to rush forward, but made a 45-degree cross from the side.

Monaco's defense line was about to lean forward toward Nani's side, but he saw Evra's cross hanging towards the back point of the penalty area.

Park Ji-sung rushed past Vertongheng quickly and directly kicked the ball when the football fell.

Rooney followed up in the middle and grabbed the shot. De Gea abandoned the goal and blocked it from close range. Rooney's shot hit De Gea's chest and bounced behind him.

Manchester United fans in the stands at Old Trafford Stadium were disappointed.

But when Matic wanted to stop the ball in front of the penalty area, he ignored the pressing threat from behind.

Matic observed Scholes' position, but he didn't expect Fletcher to rush up from behind. Before he stopped the ball, Fletcher broke out from the side and took the opportunity to take the lead!

Matic was caught off guard and subconsciously stretched out his legs, but it was too late!

Fletcher directly entered the penalty area this time. He did not adjust, but quickly took off his feet and shot!

Benatia came up to block the ball and it was obviously slower. She probably thought that Matic could control the ball and the defense line could temporarily release the alarm.

De Gea quickly got up and ran towards the left post of the goal. After running two steps, he immediately saved it. When he stretched his right arm to the limit, he was about half a meter away from the football. The football rolled into Monaco's goal!

After seeing the football roll into the Monaco goal, Fletcher rushed to the sidelines to celebrate with a crazy expression on his face. Manchester United teammates also rushed to him. The atmosphere at Old Trafford was bào     zhà!

"The ball is in! Fletcher! Surprising goal scorer! Fletcher started the first place in Manchester United's fourth consecutive year to rush to the Champions League semi-finals!

This goal was a chance that Fletcher had taken. Monaco's defense had just experienced a dangerous situation. After De Gea blocked Rooney's shot, Matic did not know enough about the situation behind him. Fletcher snatched the ball in advance, and then rushed into the penalty area and pushed the ball into the goal with a push!

We can clearly feel that Monaco has reached this time point after the opening game, and they have never kept up with Manchester United's game rhythm, and Manchester United completely dominated the game in the Dream Theater!

The defensive counterattack that Monaco relied on to become famous did not play the expected effect!

Now Monaco needs to adjust their condition first and not be affected by the goal concealment. According to Manchester United's posture today, I'm afraid this goal just declares that the game has just begun!"

In the jubilant atmosphere of Old Trafford, Situ Yunbing felt cold sweat oozing from his back.

Real Madrid is very strong and has more stars, but Real Madrid does not have the crazy spirit and momentum of Manchester United, or it is the unique magic of the Red Devils!

This is the most miserable 20-minute game Monaco has played this season!

Without Situ Yunbing making gestures, the captains Modesto and Perez clapped their hands to encourage their teammates to cheer up, and everyone reminded each other to stabilize the scene.

After the Red Devils celebrated, the game continued. Monaco tried to counterattack, but the offense was not ideal. From the perspective of technical performance, when the rhythm and blood are swelling, the players will have less time to handle the ball, which will also require higher technical abilities!

It happened that Monaco was a bit weak in the midfield technical link. They were tough and delicate, with no problem with defense, but they were a little difficult to move forward in the offense.

At the fast pace, it is even more necessary to pass accurately. If there is a slight mistake, it will give the opponent the opportunity to attack on the spot.

In the 29th minute of the game, Gareth Bale forced a long shot from the left in front of Manchester United's penalty area, and Van der Sar easily saved the dangerous situation.

Situ Yunbing shook his head slightly on the sidelines. Monaco completely lost his sense of rhythm under the rhythm of Manchester United. Even if he had the opportunity to counterattack, he became impatient, as if football was a regular time, and he wished he could kick the ball out as soon as possible and stay away from him.

Situ Yunbing kept gestures to the players on the sidelines, indicating that they should keep calm. As long as the offense develops to the opponent's halftime, you should still improve your efficiency and not play too blindly.

The pressure of Old Trafford at home, and the Red Devils drove the game as fast as lightning, as if it made the Monaco generals feel suffocated!

In the 33rd minute of the game, Gary Neville assisted from the right and then pulled the ball backwards after restraining Monaco's left defense. Scholes and Carrick cleverly completed the forward pass and cut cooperation. Scholes stepped forward and gently divided the ball into the right front in front of Nkuru. Rooney made a cross-bow when Vertonheng topped the defense.

Nkuru's previous robbery was too large, and Scholes turned around and chased him back and was thrown away!

Responding to Rooney's cross, Scholes directly kicked the ball in front of the penalty area!

The football was less than 30 cm above the ground. De Gea had no time to fall to the ground in a hurry and directly stretched out his legs to block the ball!

The football flew to the left outside the penalty area and flew to the place where Nani was. Modesto immediately rushed out and pushed the ball out of the sideline before the football landed. As a result, the football hit Nani's leg and refracted it to the back of the sideline.

Evra rushed past Vitsel and rushed forward for 5 yards and made a decisive cross!

The Monaco defense has just recovered from the previous dangerous situation, and Manchester United's second attack has once again surged!

Evra's cross landed in the middle of the penalty area. Benatia was moving at the extreme and tried to head the ball to clear the ball, but the football flew less than 10 cm above his head!

Falling!

And one meter behind him, Rooney stepped forward and rushed to the front and attacked the goal!

The football flew straight to the upper left position in the middle of the goal, and De Gea reached out to try to block it, but he was still unable to turn the world back!

The ball is too fast!

The football flew into Monaco's goal again!

Rooney ran to the sidelines to celebrate with his arms wide open, and the cheers of Old Trafford shocked all directions!

Situ Yunbing frowned, but his eyes were still sharp.

This trend was completely unexpected. Monaco is already on the verge of collapse. If no effective adjustment is made at this time, Monaco's Champions League trip may end in Old Trafford, the Red Devils' Dream Theater!
Chapter completed!
