Chapter 606 Yang Yang's Credit

"Liverpool attacked from the right..."

"Abeloa passed to the front and handed it over to Kuyt."

"Kuyt takes the ball, crosses to the back..."

"Vidic took the lead and blocked Yang Yang with his body, the ball went out of the baseline, and the corner kicked."

"It was Liverpool's first corner."

"Gerrard took the corner and Ferdinand got the first spot and put the ball high."

"The ball is high but not far, it's still in Manchester United's penalty area."

"Van der Sar attacked, was interfered, and Crouch headed the ball..."

"The ball has returned to the previous point... Yang Yang..."

"The ball is in!!!!"

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"Twenty-seventh minute, twenty-seventh minute, Liverpool scored a goal!"

"Crouch headed the ferry, assisted Yang Yang with a close-range header, and broke Manchester United's empty goal."

"Van der Sar's attack did not succeed. This time Liverpool's corner kick was very successful. Whether it was the interference of the players or the support of running positions, they were obviously well prepared."

"In less than half an hour, Manchester United were already one goal behind."

"Ferguson looked a little disappointed, this game he put a lot of effort into the defense, but the result was still seized by Liverpool, and Yang Yang again, this is his 21st league entry so far this season. ball."

"This goal fully demonstrated Yang Yang's calmness and judgment in front of the goal."

"Crouch's header came very suddenly, but Yang Yang's reaction was also very fast. He shook his head directly on the spot, hit a close upper left corner, and headed the ball directly into the goal."

…………

When Yang Yang finally broke Manchester United's goal, the emotions that had accumulated for half an hour at Anfield finally burst out at that moment, and all the fans in the audience went crazy!

In fact, this double red meeting is more of a traditional meaning for Liverpool, a bit similar to the meaning of a derby.

In the standings, Liverpool is far ahead and Arsenal is second. On the other hand, Manchester United did not play well in the first 15 rounds.

So far, they have lost two games and three draws.

Looking at the previous four months, Manchester United's best performance was in October, the month when Rooney won the Player of the Month award. Manchester United scored four goals in three consecutive games, and Rooney performed very well. The state exploded quickly.

During that period of time, Rooney had an amazing performance of four goals and four assists in four rounds of the league. Stopped at four goals.

Except for October when Rooney broke out, Manchester United's performance in other months was very average. Almost every game was played bumpy, almost all wins by one goal, and several core players in the team did not perform well.

For example, the number one star Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Portuguese, who threatened to compete with Yang Yang before the season, has been thoroughly compared in the first half of the league.

In the first 15 rounds, the Portuguese played almost all the games. Compared with other Premier League players, the report card of eight goals and one assist may still be good. Currently, they are ranked third in the Premier League scorer list, only higher than Arsenal's A. Debayor missed a goal.

But if you compare it with Yang Yang, it is far inferior, because Yang Yang scored 20 goals and 6 assists in the first 15 rounds. This report card is not in the Premier League, even if you look at the big four. The league is second to none.

The Sun, which is close to Manchester United, believes that it is not that other players are not performing well, but that Yang Yang is too strong.

According to Yang Yang's current scoring efficiency, with his performance this season, more than 30 goals will not be a problem.

However, many media believe that Yang Yang's 20 goals in 15 rounds is really amazing, but other Premier League strikers have not achieved double-digit goals in the first 15 rounds. It can only be said that the overall is relatively average.

When Henry, Shearer and Ruud van Nistelrooy and other famous Premier League players gathered, what a spectacular scene was on the scorer list, but now it is hard to see, so that Yang Yang is the best, and everyone else is far behind.

...

Because Liverpool is in very good shape recently, although the team has just won the Club World Cup in Japan, the team is very tired, but Ferguson still does not dare to be careless.

Before the game, the Manchester United coach made it clear that the team's goal was to take a point away from Anfield.

In this game, although he played in a four-four-two formation, nine players actually put in the defense. In many cases, only one Cristiano Ronaldo was left to fight back.

Both forwards Rooney and Tevez retreated to their defense.

It can be seen that Manchester United is really afraid of Liverpool's attack.

The grievances and confrontations in history, and the pressure accumulated over the decades, have caused the players on both sides to carry a heavy burden, and even the coaches of both sides did not dare to rush in easily, which greatly reduced the excitement of the game.

Manchester United took the initiative to shrink the defense, which is a big test for Liverpool's ability to break through the intensive attack.

But everyone knows that breaking the density is the difficulty of all the strong teams in the world.

Liverpool couldn't come up with an effective solution in the first 20 minutes or so.

It is also difficult for Yang Yang to get a chance under the joint freeze of Gary Neville and Hargreaves.

No matter how strong he is, it is impossible for him to face Gary Neville and Hargreaves at the same time. Not to mention, Rooney and Tevez also actively returned to the midfield, making Manchester United's The defense has become extremely solid.

Liverpool seemed to have the upper hand, but in fact they failed to get a decent chance.

Of course, Yang Yang was closely watched by Manchester United, and Ronaldinho also failed to get rid of Liverpool's defensive imprisonment.

In the first half hour, the Manchester United star also did not get any chance.

However, no one thought that Liverpool would use a corner kick to create chaos in Manchester United's penalty area. In the end, Yang Yang seized the opportunity and headed into the empty goal, breaking Manchester United's goal.

This time, Manchester United is passive.

…………

…………

Ferguson reached out and grabbed his jaw forcefully, shaking his head.

Meishan's locked appearance revealed the stalemate in his heart at this moment.

"Obviously it wasn't an opportunity, but he actually caught it!" Ferguson said very depressed.

The reason why it was not an opportunity was because the penalty area was too chaotic at the time, and no one knew where the ball would go. As a result, Crouch temporarily moved back to the previous point, but Yang Yang appeared in that place unexpectedly, and He was able to push a top left corner in a hurry.

At the time, if he hit the ground ball, he might not have scored because Anderson was nearby.

"Vandersa's attack this time is a bit sloppy." Queiroz shook his head and said.

Ferguson nodded, indeed.

The most important thing is that after Van der Sar attacked, he failed to clear the ball. For a goalkeeper, it was a mistake.

Manchester United's defense has been greatly improved in the past two years, and goalkeeper Van der Sar has also been highly praised, but in fact, he is not without mistakes. At best, his mistakes did not bring disaster to Manchester United.

But that's the backline's credit.

At the beginning, Vidic was originally valued by Benitez of Liverpool, but Ferguson took the lead and dug the Serbian central defender to Manchester United, directly creating the double central defender combination of Vidic and Ferdinand.

The main reason is that Vidic is fierce enough to hold the scene. He is like Terry of Chelsea, playing the core role of the pillar of the back line.

The reason why Liverpool and Arsenal are unstable at the back is precisely because they both lack a pillar-type central defender.

Without such a central defender, the situation cannot be controlled, and the back line cannot be stabilized.

Hypia was originally such a central defender, but he is old now, and Daniel Agger was brought in to play this role, but he has a lot of injuries this season, and it is said that Benitez wants this type of central defender.

Carragher is the leader of the back line, but he is more like Carvalho and Ferdinand. He needs a pillar-type central defender as a partner to play a better role and stabilize the back line.

In fact, Liverpool have been in a slump for a while, with Daniel Agger injured, Hypia in poor form, and frequent turnovers, Liverpool can almost be said to be close to collapse.

Unexpectedly, Benitez relied on Yang Yang's goal, and the defense of Gerrard and Mascherano in the midfield just survived, which also created Liverpool's current lead.

This is not the victory of Liverpool as a whole or Benitez, but the credit of Yang Yang alone.

During that time, he was dragging Liverpool around almost alone, running and sprinting.

Manchester United lack such a player.

Cristiano Ronaldo has not shown superhuman strength this season. Rooney once played in form, but after only four games, he was injured and then his form was gone.

On the other hand, Yang Yang, four months later, he is still so fierce.

This player has a strong ability to seize opportunities, and his sense of smell is also very sensitive, so he can't stop it!

Ferguson is now in a dilemma like receiving a hot potato.

Continue to defend like this, Liverpool have a goal in hand, they must be happy to see him so negative, because it means they can easily win games, and this is also the last thing Ferguson is willing to see.

But if you choose a more aggressive style of play, you will have to sacrifice defense. Can you hold it at that time?

The trident composed of Yang Yang, Crouch and Kuyt, plus there is a Gerrard in ambush behind him, how terrible is this offensive combination, need to say more?

Thinking of this, Ferguson let out a long sigh.

"Just wait." Ferguson said helplessly.

I thought about it a lot, but in the end it was just one sentence.

Queiroz knew what Ferguson meant, and he also understood the difficulty of Ferguson.

It's still too early and too risky to press out to fight now.

It is better to wait for Liverpool to take the initiative to make mistakes, or wait for an opportunity to counterattack in the second half.

All in all, Manchester United are very passive now.

And what caused all this was Yang Yang's damn goal!
